(DiNNeApouis PUBLIC LI OftAtlY - - THE I960 HESPERIAN presented by the Senior Class WEST HIGH SCHOOL MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA c MHC o % 7T) l )ct(cO Change has always been and will always be a powerful force in the world. It is change that made the past a succession of inspiring developments; it is change that makes the present a time of exciting contrasts; and it is change that will make the future an opportunity for further achievement. Changes have occurred in many areas. Man’s inquiry into the secrets of the universe has resulted in rapid technological progress. In our country man has stopped to examine his moral standards and to incorporate higher values into his ideals. We at West High School have been affected by these changes. They have been reflected in our course content and increased variety of classes. Our total program has been modified to meet more adequately the present needs of today’s students and to better educate tomorrow’s citizens. Therefore, the Staff has designed the 1960 Hesperian to record these changes. With them appears evidence of the many excellent qualities that have always been and will continue to be a part of West High School. sr[ FOREWORD ACADEMIC SENIORS ORGANIZATIONS ATHLETICS UNDERCLASSMEN STUDENT LIFE CONTENTS Improving the quality of American education is now one of the major concerns of the people of our country. With this as an objective, the Minneapolis Public Schools set up a four-year study of the Senior High School Day. The study was completed and its recommendations were accepted as a guide for change and revision in the programs of our city schools. This year, a number of the suggested changes have been put into effect at West High School. The major areas which have been modified are: credits, graduation requirements, and diplomas; student groupings for instructional purposes; special and accelerated classes; the mechanics of scheduling the classes; and individual department and course content. ACADEMIC The administrative personnel was new at West this year. Mr. Frank T. Janes was appointed principal, and Mr. Howard J. Straiton, assistant principal. Mr. Janes began his Minneapolis school experience in 1936 as a chemistry teacher and then, in 1947, became assistant principal of Washburn High School. His educational background includes a bachelor's Degree from Concordia College and two Master’s Degrees, one from the University of Chicago, the other from Columbia University. During his first year at West, Mr. Janes initiated a number of changes in the school program and curriculum. His interest and skill in adapting IBM systems resulted in the use of them in West affairs. PRINCIPAL Mr. Frank T. Janes Year of i960 ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL Mr. Howard J. Straiton Page 8 Mr. Straiion attended high school at Washburn and was graduated from the University of Minnesota where he received both a Bachelor’s and a Master’s Degree. In 1948, he bcamc a member of the Marshall High faculty, teaching social science and coaching football and track. He became assistant principal of Southwest in 1956. At West, Mr. Straiton has worked closely with students, organizations, and special activities. One of his administrative projects was a study of school attendance problems and their relation to the individual student, parents, and school achievement. Working with the administrators arc two counselors, a visiting teacher, a nurse, and two librarians. With the help of four members of the secretarial staff, these people conduct the business of the front offices and work with other school personnel to operate an efficient, well-organized school. SECRETARIAL STAFF — Mr . Rosamond Nelson, Mrs. G. Mourcr, Mis Inez Mahone ‘.

A senior grammer course has been a popular elective and this year at mid-term, two new classes were added, journalism and drama. Many records, films, and tape recordings arc used by this department and it works in close cooperation with the school library. Special orientation in the use of the library is provided during the sophomore year. The teachers of the West High English department meet regularly to discuss and improve different aspects of their department. They also attend many citywide English department meetings. appreciation o good literature it gained in English classes. Page 10 LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT The West High foreign language department offers beginning and advanced classes in French, German, Latin, and Spanish. The percentage of West students taking foreign lauguages is the highest of all the public schools in Minneapolis. The nation, feeling a need to promote the study of foreign languages, established the National Education Defense Act. This provides high schools with money to build and equip language departments. West has had a language laboratory for many years and this special room is equipped with a record player, tape recorder, and projector. Next year, as a result of funds from the federal act, West will have one of the three fully equipped language laboratories in the city of Minneapolis. Today’s Westites Herr Klein instructs auf Deutsch” Mr. D. McLaughlin Miss Ora McLaughlin Comme Mademoiselle McLaughlin le dit ton tours. “Tassez-rous et faites attention!” EXCHANGE TEACHER “West High students arc ever so nice and friendly.” This statement was frequently made by Mr. Raimund Klein, West’s exchange teacher from Trier, Germany. He exchanged positions directly with Mr. Percy Fearing, who taught for the year in the Max Planck Gymnasium. This exchange was arranged through the Fulbright Commission. “Herr” Klein’s broad grin and cheery personality quickly gained him many friends and his skill with the English language made conversations easy and interesting. West was fortunate to have had Mr. Klein as a teacher and friend.

As this ruling just became effective this year, some adjustment has been made for those beyond the sophomore year. Also, plans arc now under way for partial revision of the city-wide social studies guidebook. SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Plant and animal biology, human physi-ology, physics, and chemistry arc all offered by the science department. For the physics and chemistry laboratories, over two thousand dollars has been made available for new permanent apparatus. These facilities arc to be ready for use in the fall, with the federal government paying thirty per cent of this cost.

MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT In addition to the regular program, new courses in mathematics were offered this year. They were an accelerated class for sophomores who showed high aptitude in the area and an experimental course which stressed mathematical ideas and relationships. Also, plans were completed for the September introduction of a freshman college course. Mr. Eric Lindberg Mr. Albert Nelson Mr. Charles Voss INDUSTRIAL ARTS DEPARTMENT The Industrial Arts Department gives practical experience and class instruction in theory and processes. Courses in met al, wood, mechanical and architectural drawing are offered. The metal classes have the pleasure of working in a completely new machine shop. Through its Red Cross exhibits abroad, the wood department has gained an international name. Mr. Robert Casserly Mr. John Dunnewold Wood shop classes produce a race of do-it-yourself men. Abstract wall painting provides atmosphere for cooking students. HOME ECONOMICS In West’s Home Economic Department students arc taught preparation of food, construction of clothing, budgeting, and consumer education. Future homemakers learn sewing fundamentals. The department operates under the Smith Hughes Grant and the George Barton Bill, which require schools to meet certain standards and help teachers prepare themselves for their job in preparing tomorrow's homemakers. Miss Frances Ford Mr. Richard Blomgrcn Mr. J. Vincent Porter Mrs. Lillian Wikman BUSINESS EDUCATION In the Business Education Department at West, a variety of subjects arc offered. Full-year courses in typing and business may be taken by all students. Beginning shorthand is offered to the juniors, and advanced shorthand, stenographic and office skills may be taken by seniors.

Miss Maxine Baker MUSIC AND ART DEPARTMENTS Important electives for students with special talents and interests are offered by the music and art departments. The students of these departments give many special services to West and often act as public relation agents. Exchange programs, concerts, pep programs, and local and foreign exhibits, as well as regular classroom activities have been a part of this year's program. Mr. Victor Hansen Mr. Ancil Ilstrup Miss Carol Peterson ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT Gym and health classes are required in the tenth and eleventh grades. Added to these are many attractive extracurricular activities. West's girls take part in one of the most active girls' sports programs in the city. While only two teachers arc listed as physical education instructors, many of the faculty take part in the program by coaching, and all Westites cheer the team. CUSTODIANS — D. Nelson, H. Swanson, D.

One of the most memorable events in any person’s life is his senior year in high school. We seniors here at West are no exception. From the lively and jubilant dances to the long hours of concentrated study, we have filled one year of life with a variety of human experiences. What we must realize is that education is a ceaseless process and that we should continually develop an awareness and sensitivity to our surroundings. This means that graduation is more of a starting point than a finish line. As far as our individual futures are concerned we arc limited mainly by our own lack of ambition, insight, and personal drive. Senior Class President, 1960 SENIORS SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS — Seated: Willis Sherman. President; Mary Schomburg, Vice-President. Standing: Cathy Pewters, Secretary: Bruce Langford, Treasurer. Seniors i960 A spirited campaign ended in the election of senior officers: President, Willis Sherman; Vice-President, Mary Schom-burg; Secretary, Cathy Pewters; and Treasurer, Bruce Langford. In a new method of election, a general slate was selected for all offices, rather than specific positions. The officers were then elected in the above order by a majority vote. There were two successive voting sessions on election day. During the fall semester representatives from each advisory were elected to the Senior Board. This group, led by the senior class officers and Mr. Eric Lindberg, class adviser, planned the senior class activities for the year. Page 18 Seniors Provide Able Leadership The two main student government organizations of West, the Student Council and Senior Board, had as their principle concerns the organization and promotion of extracurricular and senior projects. These activities involved work with many groups of students, the administration, the faculty, and the PTA. The Student Council officers were seniors with broad experience in school affairs, all having had previous membership in the council. They provided leadership for the council, which planned and carried out both new and traditional activities. The Senior Board, completely reorganized this year, spent considerable time and energy working with the senior officers to plan class projects. By having room 313 as their permanent homeroom, they were able to work as a group and also report to their former advisories, encouraging full participation and democratic representation. Graduation, Class Day, Baccalaureate, the Prom and the after-graduation boat ride were planned by the Senior Board. To finance part of these activities, the class sponsored three successful money raising projects — the class play, a paper sale, and the Cooking School. This year, for the first time, the senior activities expenses were listed, a budget set up, and the costs prorated. Through the fine cooperation of all class members, these two organizations were able to work effectively, setting a pattern which will remain an example of responsibility and good leadership.

Miau Ling Tjoa and Rcdcnior Visaya, West’s two foreign students, won our affection with their charm and enthusiasm. Miau Ling, who was born in Indonesia, lived in Amsterdam before coming to the United States. When she returns she plans to enter a university and major in languages. While at West Miau Ling participated in many school affairs and was a member of the Telckcts Social Club and the Student Council. Redentor—or Roly to us — was from Laoag, Llocos Nordc in the Philippines. While at West he was a member of the Student Council and took part in many other school activities. When he returns home, Roly will continue a study of investment and finance. Our lives were greatly enriched by knowing Miau Ling and Roly, and we express our thanks to the American Field Service for giving us the opportunity to have them with us at West High School. They Further Friendly International Relations WEST A.F.S. REPRESENTATIVES —Sarah Lenington, Jane Larson, Sue Dunbar. WEST’S REPRESENTATIVES This year, West was well represented in Europe by its three American Field Service students. Sue Dunbar spent the summer in Belgium, Jane Larson was in Germany ten weeks, and Sarah Lennington attended school for four months in Alessandria, Italy. Sue and Jane spent much time swimming, biking, and taking auto trips with their “families,” so they saw a great deal of the European countryside. Sarah was enrolled in a scientific high school where she attended twelve classes each school day. Before going to Italy, she studied the Italian language only four weeks, but reported that her WHS language background helped her to learn quickly. The girls agreed they had an invaluable experience, and we at West profited from hearing about their trips. Page 34 GIRLS AND BOYS STATE Four Wcstites, selected by a vote of their class, represented West at Girls State and Boys State. There they spent a busy and exciting summer week learning more about government. This project is sponsored annually by the American Legion and its auxiliary. Its purpose is to provide citizenship training for future voters of America. SCHOLARSHIP FINALISTS As a result of their scores in national examinations, five seniors qualified in scholarship programs. Gale Struthcrs, Sarah Lcnington, Jane Kottke, and Richard Wiste, placed as finalists in the National Merit Scholarship Examination. Paul Keaton was a finalist in the General Motors Scholarship program. This award was based on an exceptionally high score in the Aptitude section of the College Board Examination.

Page 35 Informal learning is the keynote of extracurricular programs, which arc fQrmctl and kept alive by the current interests and needs of a student body. They supplement classroom activity and vary in their aims. Such programs adapt themselves to the changing interests of the students. At West High, new organizations have been formed, replacing groups such as the Daubers, Railroad, and Bird Clubs of earlier years. So will others replace those of today. But whatever their names or purposes, clubs will be of great value to students; for in these informal groups, students work closely with each other. Through them, they grow to know themselves and others better and learn to be more useful citizens of the school, community, and nation. ORGANIZATION S STUDENT COUNCIL — Row 1: B. Borowski, J.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY To create enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the development of character are the purposes of the National Honor Society. In this year’s election of new members, service, leadership, and character were given equal emphasis with scholarship. Under the direction of Miss Charlotte Westby, the society supervised an Indian Drive, handled the announcements for the graduating seniors, and sponsored an Induction Ceremony for new members.

Members are elected on the basis of their service ability and scholastic record. The Council is able to efficiently accomplish many things because the faculty allows it to conduct some of its business during school hours. This year, with Mr. R. Harold Bailey as adviser, the council discussed new ideas, problems, and solutions. Its projects included the supervision of the fall PTSA Open House, Homecoming, Kowpokc’s Kut-Up, and “The Big Blow,” the all-school talent show. ilD BOARD — Row I: Miss Board man, M. Golic, L.

One of the most popular of these is learning about the foods of the different countries. All the clubs hold banquets or breakfasts at which food and entertainment typical of their respective countries arc served. Each year the language clubs have attractive floats in the Homecoming parade. This year the Latin club’s float took second place in the judging.

HESPERIAN EDITORS — Miss Baker, Adviser; Jane Kottke, Jancr Bartko. THE HESPERIAN The word “dummy” took on new meaning for the 1960 Hesperian Staff as they discovered early in September that “dummy” is a printer’s technical term which means a detailed layout and working plan. From the moment they received this first bit of illuminating information, the staff proceeded to other startling revelations. Headquarters, 321, became the site of feverish activity. Details of making a picture schedule, techniques of writing, rewriting, and editing copy, methods of sizing and mounting pictures finally became routine work. “Think Hesperian!” was heard during staff periods and during the numerous after school, week-end, and vacation sessions. But before the distribution date, staff members realized that they had learned more than just the fundamentals of producing a year-book; they had also received a broad educational experience. The 1960 Hesperian Staff proceeded with a feeling of responsibility, for they had as their goal a documentary record of the school year and they worked with the idea that this Hesperian is also a volume of West High history.

Carter, Mrs. Vorpahl. THE TIMES Hot of! the press—one edition of the West High Times, but before it has time to cool, the staff is at work on the next issue. Each editor, a specialist in a particular field, contributes copy to each paper. The Editor-in-Chief, Paul Keaton, and the Associate Editor, Nancy Carter, share the most important positions: those of coordinating each issue, assigning articles, sizing copy, and making certain that assignments arc completed. The faculty adviser, Mrs. Betty Vorpahl, helps with all jobs. She has the reputation of being the person at West most-likely-to-mcntion-a-dcadlinc.” When the editors receive the copy, they size it to fit the layout and send it to the printer, who makes the first proof. This is returned to school, checked, sent back to the printer for a final proof; then, back to West, where the final proof-reading is done and headings are composed. After a few frantic sessions with the printer, the paper goes to press and another edition is on its way. A good high school newspaper needs a school which has activities which can make the headlines” and a staff that can write them — the Times has both!

Physical health includes the understanding to appreciate physical welfare, the desire to attain it, and the skill to achieve it. To round out its students’ education, West High presents a physical education program which incorporates these three areas of learning. Included are health and gym classes, intramural, and varsity sports. The latter gives students an opportunity to develop their skill and to earn recognition for their school. To support the team arc the enthusiastic West spectators, anxious to have West win, but satisfied if a game is well played. ATHLETICS 1 1 1 H' ? mi VARSITY FOOTBALL SQUAD — Row 1: Mr. Roy. L.

Cowboys Take Middle Spot In Conference West’s football team completed the ’59 season with a 4 - 4 record and 6th spot in the district standing. In the Parade Stadium pre-season Preview Quarter with South, the Cowboys gained an impressive victory and showed the team’s skill and power that was in evidence during much of the season. In the first Conference game, the speedy backfield and outstanding line defense worked together to win a 19-0 victory over Southwest. Co-Captain Rocky Mattson, Dick Anfinson, Ron Lyslo, and Don Frentz scored the TD’s; Arnic Svendsen added the conversion point. West's defensive Vigilantes team iif to stop Henry for no gain.

The Cowboys held a 7 - 0 lead at the half, but later fumbles hurt and Henry pulled a 12-7 score. The Washburn game opened with a thriller on the first play from scrimmage when Frentz took the ball and went 61 yards for a touchdown, but the State Champions got the win. The Cowboys came back with a 25 - 0 defeat of Vocational. Roosevelt reversed West’s Homecoming slogan and by the half chalked up a 20 - 0 lead. But the Cowboys still had fight, and Anfinson scored one TD, and Mattson made a spectacular run for another. The Cowboys were back again with a 18-0 win over Edison. The highlights of the game were Tim Nixon’s 35-yard touchdown run and Mattson’s touchdown passes to Dick Anfinson and Lcs Halverson. Then Central out ran West in a 20 - 7 win. A brilliant spot of the game was Bill Hennemuth’s running and the last quarter drive of 65 yards which resulted in a TD. In the final Conference game, West again showed its power and smashed North in a 31-7 win. The touchdowns of Mattson, R. Lindstrom, Frentz, and Halverson; the conversions of Svendsen; and the brilliant team work made this a top game of the season. The leadership of Co-Captains Rocky Mattson and Jack Wartnick was outstanding. Mattson was named All-City Quarterback and City Most Valuable Player, as well as the Preview’s Most Valuable.” Terry Temp won the team’s “Most Tackles” award.

Strong Finish Climaxes Hockey Season Under Coach Donald Houck, the varsity hockey team placed seventh in the city. With a record of 4 wins, 5 losses, and 1 tic, the team showed their power in the season's strong finish. In the final three games, West won two, scoring 9 points to their opponents' 4. An innovation in this year's hockey schedule was the introduction of the Hockey Preview. West held highly rated Roosevelt with a 1 - 1 tic, the Teddies making their only goal in the final seconds of play. The regular season opened with South. The Tigers’ defense stopped the Cowboys as South won 3-0. West’s next opponent. Vocational, failed to score as 2 goals by Arnie Svcndscn, 2 by Dick Larson, and one each by John Standal and Bob Day, gave West a 6 - 0 win.

In the Central game, West won 4-2 as Larson and Horr each got 2.

The team had real scoring punch as shown by equalling the 16 total goals of their opponents. The sophomores lost four of their games by only 1 point. Minnesota weather handicapped the sophomores in the beginning of the season, making it necessary to play all their games in one month. SKIING West’s ski team was composed of seniors Greg Hamilton, Brian Borne, Art Schaefer, and 'juniors Don Elstad and Chuck Ross. Elstad, the only returning skier, took ninth place in slalom in the City Meet. Because of an insufficient amount of snow, practice was limited and many scheduled meets were cancelled. Lacking numbers needed to place as a team, the skiers entered only individual events.

In this tournament the West team placed eighth, but the golfers have high hopes of a more satisfactory spring season. Then teams will compete in the District 17, and the two medalists will enter the region, which leads to the state tournament. Returning West lettermen are seniors Frank Nelson, Rick Passon, and Merle Shapiro. Hard-hitting juniors Chuck Ross and Tim Nixon have given Coach Adc Nelson reason for an optimistic approach to the coming season. Coach Nelson said, Our boys arc much better this year. They seem to have more enthusiasm than other recent teams. Tim Nixon had a ‘hole in one’ to his credit in a family game. Of course everyone hopes to get an ‘ace,’ but we’ll settle for pars and birdies.” CROSS COUNTRY The West High Harriers, coached by Richard Blomgren, completed their season with a satisfactory record. With decisive wins over Washburn, Henry, Edison, and Vocational, the team entered the city meet and placed sixth. Here, Bill Jackson, with an outstanding time of 9:22, placed among the first 15 award winners. At the Duluth Invitational, where 25 state teams competed, West rated a strong eleventh place. Co-Captains Larry Bestlcr and Bill Jackson provided able leadership; seniors Mickey Brewer, Dennis Crandall, Bill Putnam, and Keith Williams performed as well trained, competitive Harriers. One of the outstanding events of the season was Jim Arnold’s 9:42 at Nokomis, which was the best time for any West High sophomore. GOLF TEAM — Mr. Nelson, R. Passon, I). Goggin, M. Shapiro, T.

Coach Houck had this to say, “Prospects for the baseball season arc good. We have experienced candidates for most positions. Five arc returning lettermen, and most of the boys have been anticipating the baseball season for a long time. They all have a good attitude, some have proved themselves in other sports, and 1 am sure they will give 100 percent effort.” Coach Voss said, “We had a large sophomore turnout at our first meeting. I think we will have a strong team.” With a start on his first season as head track coach, Mr. Primrose said, “We had 6 lettermen and a number of real enthusiastic boys at our first meeting. I think we will lie able to build a good team.” Mr. R. Roy will be assistant varsity track coach. TENNIS This year, for the first time, the state high school tennis tournament took place in the fall. West’s four returning lettermen were: Tony Annoni and Bruce Langford, doubles; Dick Wistc and Bob Ryder, singles. The team, coached by Mr. W.

Girls join GAA for the fun they receive from playing and competing with other girls at West and from other schools, and to develop skill in sports. By participating in the various sports, the girls earn points. At an awards banquet in the spring, those who have earned 400 points receive a letter. The GAA Board is elected by members. Its function is to organize the sports program, draw up the tournaments, and keep a record of the points earned. BADMINTON The girls’ badminton team completed the season in second place in Minneapolis District 2 with a record of two wins and two losses. They played Vocational, Washburn,' Southwest, and Central; they lost to Southwest and Central. At each meet seven matches were played: four singles and three sets of doubles.

During the sophomore and junior years, change becomes apparent in the individual. The development felt within one’s self is the most exciting kind of change. These years arc usually a time when underclassmen adjust to traditional and established patterns of their school. At the same time, new ideas are being formed with an increasing desire to plan and work toward the big senior year and the more important years beyond. The early years of high school are a period in which to establish values, set goals, and strive to fulfill these goals. It is a time of exploration which leads to selfunderstanding and improvement. The underclassmen have successfully proved that they are classes with talent, intelligence, and typical West High spirit. UNDERCLASSMEN Sophomore accelerated elate covert both plane and tolid geometry in one year. Class of 1962. The sophomore class members quickly lost their young and bewildered September look as they became involved in West’s innumerable activities. Learning the words of the “Rouscr and the complicated room numbering system posed problems, but their major concern was adjusting to the more rigid high school scholastic requirements. The Class of 1962 entered West at a time when the school curriculum was undergoing revision, and the students received many new benefits. Among these were: the services ot another full time counselor, the addition of accelerated and special classes, a change in course and credit requirements, and the establishment of an honor diploma for those who graduate with outstanding schol- 310 —MRS.

All of West applauded the sophomores when they presented their Homecoming skit, The Price Is All Right.” From then on they actively supported all school activities — from the Soup Drive to Kowpoke’s Kut-Up. Their Homecoming attendant, cheerleader, Student Council members, and other representatives did their duties well. The sophomore athletic teams made fine records, and many a varsity coach had his eye on them and saw what he considered some “very promising material.” Throughout the year the sophomores contributed much to school activities. They developed an individual class spirit and made a notable first year record. 328 —MR. BEHRENDT Row I: L. Carlson, L. Kaplan, J. Yates, L. O'Neil, C. Breckon. Row 2: D. Mcnkc, B. Artishon, L.

Class of 1961 The junior class members started the year with many strong resolutions and realized most of their intentions. They completed a busy and successful year, during which they enthusiastically supported all school activities and responded well to the new intensified scholastic emphasis. Through the encouragement of the faculty, the class started to think seriously about after graduation plans. They counted credits, took aptitude tests, checked college and job requirements, and made their senior programs. Strong in many areas, the juniors earned a reputation for impressive dramatic productions. Their first class auditorium, the fabulous South Pacific,” will never be forgotten. Finding saijor uniforms, rewriting songs, and re- hearsing in 404 arc memories that will always remain. True showmanship was again exhibited in their Junior Class Play The Fighting Littles. The majority of the class worked on some detail of the play, making it an excellent production. They all agreed that patience and capability were the major characteristics of the director, Mr. H. Bailey. The class activities gained momentum as the year progressed. By June many athletes had been promoted to Varsity teams, the AFS representative had been selected, staffs had been set up for the Times and Hesperian, Senior Class officers had been elected, and new resolutions had been made for the senior year. 109 —MISS FORI) Rou 1: C.

It is the continuous growth of the individual by which he learns to live in harmony with himself and with others. Through informal student life activities, West High students have an opportunity to plan, work, and have fun together. Accepting responsibilities in planning social events, producing auditoriums, and carrying out class projects are experiences that develop social attitudes and skills that carry on into adult life. In future years we will have many pleasant memories of parades, parties, plays, and fads and fashions. Amusing pictures of our friends will refresh our memories and make us realize that a good laugh and wholesome recreation help to make a better world. STUDENT LIFE Homecoming Day Homecoming, an annual tradition, has become a symbol of long colorful auditoriums, alumni reunions, football games, and gala dances. This year’s October 16 celebration followed established customs and was carried out in royal style. Westites prepared well in advance for this eventful day. The halls were decorated in green and white, which added an air of celebration to the building. The auditorium program with Norm Wartnick and Stu Shancdling, alumni of ’59, as MC’s, was the first of the featured .events. They presented former West High Homecoming queens who told of past glories. After a great deal of suspense, and with regal splendor, charming Shari Dcncscn was crowned 1959 Homecoming Queen. Reigning with her was her lovely court: Mary Schomburg, Bonnie Borowski, and Miau Ling Tjoa, senior attendants, Sandy Songlc, junior attendant, and Joanne Brumbaugh, sophomore attendant. Peals of laughter and shouting filled the auditorium as the individual acts and class skits were presented to an enthusiastic school. Then came the parade! It began at the school, followed the usual route, and proceeded back to the football field for a round of praise and applause. Here the Angedias Social Club received the coveted trophy for the best float. Even though the Homecoming slogan, “Skin the Teddies Bare,” didn’t prove itself, the game was exciting and the crowd’s spirit exuberant. The final event of Homecoming was a dance at the Columbia Chalet, a wonderful conclusion to a completely wonderful day. Queen Shari Seniors sought the foot to fit the shoe. Angedias' winning float, Pickle the Pandas.” Page 84 The crowd is waiting, hut where are the hoys? Type of terrific Teddy tackle that temporarily dampened the Cowboy spirit. Whoops!

Seniors Star in “The Night of January 16” ‘‘Was it murder or was it suicide?” The ease of The Night of January 16th was brought to trial at West High. A courtroom, reproduced to perfection, was the scene of action for the senior class play. The plot revolves around the death of financial director, Bjorn Faulkner. The witnesses arc intriguing. Their testimonies arc filled with prejudices and discrcpcncics. Statements by technical experts seem to incriminate the leading lady, Karen Andre. The guilt or innocence of Miss Andre is left to the judgment of the jury. This comedy-drama was the first of its kind to be given at West. Suspense ran high in the courtroom as the ease unfolded. There were surprises, too, as the jury was drawn from the audience. Few had realized, when they purchased their tickets, that they might be chosen as jurors. The senior class developed cooperative committees on costuming, properties, make-up, and publicity. These student committees worked together for the success of the play. The tenseness of tryouts, the strain of rehearsals, and the excitement of opening night will always’ be remembered by the cast. Mr. H. Robert Bailey directed the play and was assisted by the student director, Lynne Alpert. The guidance and patience of the director, the hard work by the members of the cast, and the efficiency of the numerous committees created a successful and unique senior class play. Juniors Present “The Fighting Littles” The night, of December 10 marked the opening of the junior class play, The Fighting Littles. This is a comedy centered around the misunderstandings and conflicts arising in a family with teenagers. Goody had very definite ideas of her own and characterized the typical teenage daughter. Filmer Little added humor with his little brother antics. Through the entire play, this quick tempered family experienced many ridiculous and sometimes painful situations. Nevertheless, the Littles found that it takes real understanding to acquire a united family. The audience responded with tremendous applause, indicating a smash hit. The success of the play was due to the excellent cast, the brilliant directing of Mr. H. Robert Bailey, and the hard work and cooperation of many class members who served on committees. Costume, prop, makeup, publicity, and scenery groups did top work necessary for the production. Lillian Berman did an efficient job as student director. The effective scenery was the result of tireless efforts by many members of the class. All who worked on the play, including the cast who polished their acting to a professional quality, spent hours bringing the play to perfection. According to the script he should just he faking!

Kowpoke’s Kut-Up The Kowpoke’s Kut-Up, a new idea at West, proved to be stupendous! The boys’ gym, locale of the festivities, was decorated in grand style. Booths and concessions, managed by organizations, provided a variety of attractions for fun, frolic, food, and frustration. One could enjoy all for just a fist full of 10c tickets. The cake walk, basketball throw, and chow line were among the most popular features. A Kangaroo Court, complete with judge and jury, kept things in a constant uproar. Those not entering into the “Kowpoke Spirit” or not appearing in proper “Kowpoke costume” were hauled into court. Square dancing, in which dancers (and non-dancers) participated, provided some wild, wreckless, and fun-packed moments. The main event of the affair was the crowning of King Bill Hennemuth. Corralled as his court were: seniors, Dave LaCombe, Rocky Mattson, and Roly Visaya; junior, Gary Gilbertson; and sophomore, Dick Larson. The Kowpoke’s Kut-Up shook the Western World! “I Could Have Danced All Night” “What should I wear?” “Will she be ready? “Will he remember the corsage? How late will Dad let me have the car?” Should I wear flats or heels? These familiar questions popped into the minds of many Wcstites as they prepared for the various school dances of the year. Sock hops, formats, costume dances, stags, and the Prom — all were exciting and fun! Then, there were the extras that came with each dance: coketails that preceded formals, the snacks and casual get-togethers after informals, and the dinner dates after fancy formals. Live music or records ... at school or the chalets or the golf clubs . . . dressy dress-up or casual clothes or costume — all different, yet special! But whatever the dress, the music, or the place, we will always remember how we planned and worked for the dance, how we anticipated the night, and what fun we had!

The day after the ni ht before. All Westites Have Fun The wise crack, the sound,'' the silly gesture added to a pointless story, all add up to our modern teenage humor. Has this eliminated the more subtle type of humor? No! — it is still present and enjoyed. The ready wit in the school newspaper articles, the cleverness of the senior campaign posters, and the subtle jokes of the auditorium skits don’t detract from the serious purpose of school. The growth of the intellect, the knowledge of things and their forces, and men and their ways,” is still the goal of a liberal education. Yet occasional comic relief can supply the right touch to complete the wonderful student life at West. Even Kicky can't take the sound. A sight not many saw. Oh no.

WHAT has invaded our kitchen? Sandy, Karen, and Joanne model I960 jashions. Fad-conscious Westites wear tunics and striped sweaters. What Was New In“6o”? This year found styles, fashions, and fads which changed frequently. The girls’ clothes stayed more on the conservative side and didn’t get extreme like the chemise of ’59. The smart racoon collar was placed on coats of every color, and this set off the cute new “bubble” hair-do. The tunic, from the Roman dress of the same name, was worn to give the effect of a long vest. Girls weren’t the only style conscious ones, as the boys were very particular about the horizontal or vertical direction of the stripes in their sweaters. Then there was the change of fashion in cars. Ah, cars! We loved the little European ones, and they grew more popular. And the American compact car came on the market and we loved those, too. Ah, gosh! We even continued to love the big ones! Well, West boasted of many new things this year, and the biggest new thing was the beautiful new green velvet auditorium curtain with the “W” on top. The littlcst “change” was the penny we paid as part of the new senior dues plan. I don’t h_now who you are, hut I just love your car!” It's just gorgeous!
