. 1974 HESPERIAN volume 65 published by the students of WEST HIGH minneapolis, minnesota The Waking I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I feel my fate in what I cannot fear. I learn by going where I have to go. We think by feeling. What is there to know? I hear my being dance from ear to ear. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. Of those so close beside me, which are you? God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there And learn by going where I have to go. Light takes the Tree; but who can tell us how? The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair; I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. Great Nature has another thing to do To you and me; so take the lively air. And, lovely, learn by going where to go. This shaking keeps me steady. I should know. What falls away is always. And is near. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I learn by going where I have to go.

West had the faculty, the students, and the administration to do it. This year saw two new administrators: Mr. Panser as Vice-Principal and Mr. Eikaas as a part time counselor. Both came from Jefferson. Mr. Allen is assisting the principal, and is in charge of the Student Council, and the new Service Center. TOP left to right: Mr. Edward Carlson; Principal.

A day at West would not have been complete without cooks, janitors, nurses, aides, librarians, and clerks. Few people will forget what study hall was to be used for, after being reminded daily by the study hall aides. We would not have survived without the lunchroom janitors to help us out with our table manners. If not for people like this, West could never have gotten anywhere at all!

To prepare them for post-high school occupations, sophomores were given the essentials. Juniors fought seniors for Westby classes and American and World Lit. Elective classes also were offered in areas such as Creative Dramatics, Debate, Yearbook, and Newspaper. TOP left to right: Miss Joan Bradach. Mr. Hansen and daughter. Mrs. Judith Paine.

Each teacher had a variety of courses to teach, instead of focusing in on one given subject, as in former years.

Our Mathematics Department may have been one of the finer equipped ones in the city this year. We had two computers, five teachers and 13 different courses. The course content varied from Basic Math to Calculus. Few have forgotten the day we all forgot to bring our compasses to Mr. Kielty and Mr. Backhaus and Mr. Gustafson's 148 Algebra-Trig lessons.

Our scientists of tomorrow spent their time inspecting blood under microscopes, dissecting sharks, and studying the effectiveness of acupuncture. They'll never forget the early morning surprise of take out a sheet of paper please! Don't be astounded if at a near future day you read about the capture of the North Pole's 'Big Foot.'

Ch. with a skip, and a jump One of the courses everyone had to take which no one wanted to was Physical Education. But after taking it students were usually glad that they had. This was caused by the West High Phy-Ed Department, not offering just routine old calisthenics, not at West! We had a wide variety of courses offered: from Archery to Field Hockey. From Fencing to Trampoline. The department staff gave all they had teaching Phy-Ed, Health and coaching. The Health Department was also varied in their course offerings ranging from Mental Health to Sex Education. TOP left to right: Mr. Charles Voss, Dept. Ch.

These students not only learned to speak the language. They also learned about the cultures of the countries whose language they chose to study. March highlighted the year for many students who traveled to Germany, France or Spain with the Foreign Language Department. TOP: Mr. Alan Hargreaves.

Students selected courses in beginning art, open studio, and art history. With these courses they even conquered the world of cubism — even without the ability to draw! Home Ec. offered many creative and artistic courses in home and family living in preparing foods, and in making clothing. The courses were offered to both boys and girls, and for the first time, classes were expanded to include Jefferson students. For the prospective home-maker. West had everything to offer.

They armed many students with skills that would help them work their way through college, and that would enable them to start work in big-business offices directly after high school. they're working on it! For those Westites who didn't mind the loss of shut-eye due to endless zero hours, the Work Program provided the students with the chance to combine a job with school. The students took on jobs anywhere from hustling around McDonald's, to being a store clerk. As the work force of tomorrow will show, it was well worth it. girls become industrious Although Industrial Arts was traditionally male, West made it a co-ed department with the infiltration of females. Along with the regular classes of drafting, electronics, surveying and mechanics. West offered a course in aviation which gave students the opportunity to spend three hours a day at the Airport. These classes prepared students for many good jobs, as well as some rewarding hobbies. TOP: Mr. Rehder takes a spin in his flashy racing car during a free weekend. MIDDLE: Mr. Robert Larson.

This year the band was only Wes-tites, and primarily underclassmen. The band played at hockey preview, at basketball, football, and at hockey home games. They also traveled out of state. There also was a special stage band, made up of percussion, brass, and saxophones. TOP: Mr. Robert Stacke, director makes some music on his own time. BOTTOM: BAND — FIRST ROW: S. Bocher, T.

Students, faculty, and alumni wondered who it would be. The curtains opened to reveal a dazzling display that soon held the new 1973 homecoming court. Then came the procession of attendants and queen candidates with their escorts. Excitement mounted; the court took their places. Suddenly it was over.

Probably the most exciting game of the season was the Southwest game. Each team held the lead, but the Cowboys pulled away in the last minutes of the game to take it 48-44. We had a team full of experienced players with seven returning lettermen, plus players from last years strong sophomore team. With the skill and leadership of Coach Kielty, and Captains Bill Baron and Steven Sawyer, the team managed to end the season high in city standings even though the Mpls.

This kind of strength was present throughout the season, despite the many team injuries. Captain Bill Rinker was injured in one of the first games, but he came back again as a hard-hitting defenseman.

The following week our boys repeated their success by crushing Marshall-U 19-0. With high spirits and determination, West met Henry in a night game at Parade Stadium. The undefeated Patties capitalized on our mistakes and trounced us 42-14. Under a hard rain West played Central for their homecoming. The boys were surprisingly beat 34-0. The team seemed to be falling apart. Yet on Homecoming Day September 28 — West bounced back with a spectacular 20-0 win over North. The highlight of the season was the Edison game in which our Cowboys made a touchdown. After six games only West had scored on them. Running back Steve Sawyer was outstanding in scoring five touchdowns throughout the season.

The first few ski meets were cancelled because of this reason. Under the new citywide sports rule, three girls joined the downhill and cross-country teams. Mr. Pierson, a teacher at West this year, was back to head the team, along with a new teacher and coach Mr. Hanson.

Although the Cowboys did their best against the strong city conference, it wasn't enough. West won only one meet. Captains Ed Walvatne and Al Melton contributed widely to the team, and the third captain, Tim Usher, also had great ability, but due to an injury he received during the Winter Sports Aud., Tim was out for the better half of the season. Although the team's record could have been improved on, it should be noted that full effort was put into each and every meet. ai birds fly high Even though there were many new faces on the badminton team this year, you wouldn't know it by the record they ended up with. There were so many good individual players that it was decided not to have any team captains. One of the best games of the season found West smashing Washburn 6-1.

Where will they go from here? They've all become sophomores in high school and they can't turn back. They've got to go on. But do they really know where to go? As sophomores they've tried out the new opportunities offered at West. They've been running to the pop machine to quench their thirst between classes. They've been going to Sam Drucker's store to slack their hunger pains during snack break. They've been going to the dances and school games. They've been going to room 300, to have fun or to study during snack break or a free period. They've been going to McDonald's during lunch instead of Burger King. That's where they've been going this year. But where will they go from here? Many of them probably aren't sure and a bit confused. One thing certain, is the need to enjoy two more years at West.

This is one way to describe the Class of 74.

Mrs. Daley was up on the facts in this ever popular class, otherwise known as psychology. You have probably been approached by some nut asking you to read a story, rate yourself on a scale of 1-7, or asking you what you see in an inkblot. Did you know you had an Electra or Oedipus complex when you were a child? If you had both maybe you're a nympho, if you didn't have either, maybe you're frigid. Oops, a Freudian slip!

But now our credulant high school days are over and it's time to move on. As each one of us graduates and become voting adults we must look at some of the larger problems of the world. To be concerned with Agnew's resignation as Vice-President, driving 50 mph. instead of 60 mph. to conserve fuel, and the obsolescence of jobs is our responsibility. They are no longer the problems of just the older generation but now they also belong to our generation. It's up to each one of us to find the right way to go. 126 127 CRAMER ELECTRIC AT 3101 IRVING AVE.SO. FOR OVER 42 YEARS 827-3541 TIME...
