Right: A multi-colored fireworks display over the Mississippi River in August. S, Opening 3 Together, as the students of West High School, we've made happenings. We've worked, so that we could enjoy a spectacular homecoming, complete with a concert and a visit by the Governor. We've rallied behind our athletic teams with a show of spirit that was an event in itself. The teams, in turn, have made our year even more exciting. That luscious moment of victory over Dowling that made out football team the state champions was brought about by a portion of West's students and was shared by nearly all. We've worked to close the gap between students and teachers by emphasizing the idea of humanization. We've made this year what it's been. ll 4 Opening Together we Above:Surrounded by the rest of the Falcan football team, senior Roger Timmermann tells a crowd at the homecoming bonfire of the team's plans for beating Alleman.

Special doesn't necessarily imply that this life is nice or interesting or even strangeg it means only that it is a total way of life uniquely related to West. West High W Students have special ways of makingthings happen every day, determined by the way they think, the way they dress, the way they spend their free time, and a multitude ofother considerations. The daily life at West may not be particularly noticeable to those that live it, but it is there. Day by day, we've made things happen. fx.

'llrli t 1 5tudentLife 11 May Summer l26I27l28I29I30lItstoo short Summer is the time for relaxation for some. For others it is time for relief, for others, work as usual. School continues for some in the form of sum- mer school. Teachers and students meet for five weeks during the summer for students to make up work in certain subjects, or experience a course not offered during the regular year. Many students work during the summer months to earn that needed extra cash. Jobs range from baby- sitting to working for a major newspaper, to stock- ing shelves in a supermarket. For some aspiring students, summer is the time for specialized workshops in areas such as speech, journalism, or athletics. Students spend anywhere from one to four weeks in these workshops, learning and working for a certain goal. Summer is also the time for sporting and social events. Student activities such as Teen Fair, 4-H, and Teen-Dems hold their rallies and activities during the months in which they have no hinderances. Sports such as baseball, golf, tennis, and track hold their seasons during the sum- mer months. All in all, summer is an enjoyable, entertain- ing, and a just plain fun time ofthe year. The problem is, it is all too short. Above: After years of complaints, the administration made arrangements to have the West High parking lot resurtaced over the summer.

Comments Rick, It's pretty boring, it's a drag. wb A 5 st.: In a student's life, development of body, mind, and spirit is not limited to four plaster walls, but to the individual's associations in a later time of life. Management is the key to development for senior Rocky Waller, who is co-manager and joint owner of The Coffee Break at 3112 Rockingham Road. Rocky averages thirty- five hours per week at work and the same amount of time at school. Along with eight employees, Rocky has found that good service and a friendly attitude are important in customer relationships. You meet a lot of interesting people in there, and I get to know most of them personally. For crew chief Rod Teel, the key is also management, but with a twist. Between running a squad of stockers, satisfying superiors four days weekly, and making the grades, a person's week can be hectic. And that's just how Rod's week goes. After two-and-a-half years, he is still interested in assigning jobs, fulfilling office orders, writing stock orders, and most of all, learning more about people. As to the future of his career, Rod says, I have great promotional potential, and the pay is goodg so I'll probably stay on. Fine arts and accompanying people such as Qerrell, Romeros, and others is the secondary education to senior Paul Hartmann. Now in his third year with Tri-City Symphony, this string bassman performs in approximately twelve major concerts per year along with countless minor ordeals. Paul got started by just trying out, but is the only WHS student accepted by the Symphony. I enjoy the quality of the music and I enjoy accompanying the famous and talented people I get to meet while I play. Paul appreciates being able to learn this particular fine art, and looks forward to further enjoying it in later life. Q jobs 15 Far Right: Fast food services are a great employer of high school age workers. Bottom right: Senior Debbie Fraker teaches guitar to Lori Drumm because, she says, I enjoy doing it. I learn a lot from teaching my students. Bottom: Chris Bailey, a senior at West, is employed at a bakery shop in the mall. Right: Cindy Pribyl works as a cashier and sales clerk in a small clothing store. Below: Fixing garage doors is certainly not the most common of jobs, as senior Randy Hite will testify. Very few people do this, he says. It's not hard to learn - you just have to think and reasonf' 16 Jobs 1 if ,K , fbi, It's not all a bore as ,. V1 . we ., W... 27 1 wh, . 1- Aa . Q if 'Q , Ja Another musician is Debbie Fraker, only this one is self- employed. This enterpriser spends approximately three hours per week teaching classical and rhythmic forms of guitar. For a year and a half, Debbie has taught five regular students from McKay's and assorted extras trying to get started or pick up new tricks. Although Debbie is well paid for her talents, she really does it for the experience. I am going to major in music in college, so I teach guitar to gain more musical experience. Development through experience is the teacher for Dick Hebbel, employee of Davenport Grain Exchange. He gains experience in grain, river boats and barges, the railroad system, and anything else pertaining to agriculture and its shipment. With just over a year of experience, Dick puts in fifty hours weekly during the harvest. That gives him very little time for sleep and no time to study. His job consists of sampling grain shipments to determine moisture, grain grade, and foreign material. Dick likes the extra education he obtains with this job. He says, The job can be hard at times, but it's satisfying. What I learn has a personal value to me, if not a monetary value. 'I Jobs 17 Senior Marty O'Connell does his thing about six hours per week at Mr. Kim's Institute of Tae-Kwon-Do. Marty practices the Korean art of kicking and punching, and has developed good health, a sound mind, and a strong body in return. It costs him a pretty penny, but he loves the discipline, coordination, and self-control he has acquired. He thinks it's a very beneficial hobby, and a lot of fun. If your later life leads you to politics, you are likely to run into a politician like Valerie Schultz. This senior is already meeting interesting people of all walks of life. During an election year, Val will be spending seventy to eighty hours per week relating Democratic philosophy to citizens she encounters. She first was introduced to politicking by her parents, and sees it as her career, especially campaign managing. It's satisfying to know that your work can determine the outcome of an election. Photographer, Mark Hess has whipped the temporary agony of leaving his school days behind. With his hobby, this camera bughas compiled files on every major aclivity that has touched his school life. He will, in the future, be able to look back on West High School with this permanent record of his accomplishments. Amateur ham radio operator, Iohn Nelson, won't be looking to the past, but will be reaching out to people on other continents. He has already established communication with Brazil, France, Germany, and Iapan while trying to contact Russia and China. With S1000 worth of equipment, he gets deep into the radio business. john got started with lessons at the Arsenal and isn't sorry he did. You can reach a greater understanding of man and make a lasting friendship with this hobby. O6 Above: Mike Ungs participates in a more unusual hobby -- scuba diving.

Not only do they believe that it is relaxing, but the exploration of the un- known is a challenge in itself. Because of the price of diving gear, the Ungs brothers rent most of their equipment and sometimes profit when a recovery job is necessary. The brothers have some not so wild ideas about underwater living. It is already possible, theoretically, says Mike. It's a whole different world underwater. If you can imagine feeling weightless in a graceful, silent environment, you have a good idea of why diving is such a fulfilling hobby. 'R we X 'je as I f if N. Q .. 4. 'X -me Y. . . X.

Above Right: A school assignment prodded Nancy Stamp's interest in collecting rocks and has been extended into a hobby. Right: Hunting is a major pastime of senior Mike McCracken.

It also helps keep the animal population down. w Hobbies 21 22. fall Q il' E From the diary of Sammy Sophomore September 3, 1974 Starting out the day in the commons area lost in a sea of people is a good introduction to West I-Iigh. When I emerge from the crowd, I find myself in an entirely foreign part of the building. Now I must locate my first class. Iwander through the h:il1s,cw,1a1ly glancing up at the room numbers twhen you're a sophomore, you can't be too obvious lj and find I'm on the wrong floor and my room is on the opposite side of the building. I find my room fifteen minutes after class starts. In a room full of juniors and seniors, I discover, you don't walk in late. I open the door in the middle of a lecture and hand the teacher my verification card. In the midst of the usual jokes about being a stupid sophomore and any other cracks they can think up, I slide silently into the nearest seat. My next three classes pass with minimal pain. There's one thing I do notice during this time, though. For some unknown reason, the teachers try to put the fear of God and mankind into you by list- ing their class requirements, grade percentages, and all the other horrors they can inflict upon an un- suspecting student. A mad rush to the commons area tells me that it must be lunch time. I decide to try to eat even though my first animal instinct flashes a run sig- nal. Feeling as if I were James Bond Cthis is as daring as any of his exploitsj, I flirt with the devil as I chew my food. I leave the lunch room to find that someway, somehow, about 2000 new students registered in the two minutes after I sat down to lunch, and they are now standing in the main hall, all 2000 of them! Gradually, the mass of people moves off, and I find myself being swept along. Determined not to get sidetracked, I daringly cross the hall and make it to my fifth class. In the second half of the day, I find more of the same -fear instilling teachers, trite jokes a- bout dumb sophomores, and a big headache. I watch the hands of the clock inch closer to that magic hour - 3:20 p.m. It finally clicks and every- one gets up. I limply crawl out of the room, down the hall to my locker and out to the school bus. A day of school is over. As I watch the school building slide from view, I sigh with relief. But wait, there are still 179 more days to go! by Sheila Brune BEGUUQIUII til sq.. - Vi sl- 5 Q 25, ,, A, I, ,Q H f ,, af Fall 23 24 Auds 1 Auds are for everyone and for every occasion. They range in tempo from the very formal and refined' style of the Queen's coronation aud, to the rambunct- ious enthusiasm of a pep aud. The packed stands were silent and reserved when Governor Ray crowned Queen Debbie Wilhelm, but thunderous shouts sprang from the same crowd during a pep aud. While there were polite claps during the corination aud, shrill whistles and strained voices presided over a pep aud. There are, of course, varying degrees in the middle. Not all auds are filled with quiet courtesy, nor are they all filled with deafening echoes of West is best!

V364 Mm if 55 a Homecoming 29 In what had to have been West High School's most outstanding dramatic production ever, Godspell opened November 7 to an enthusiastic audience that filled the house. The musical, directed by Paul Holzworth and Richard Eehlman, hosted a talented cast of twelve and a new addition to WHS productions, a live-rock band. Special re- cognition goes to Mike Wilson for his portrayal of Judas, to Zack Memos as jesus, and to the excellent performance of the band. When the play opened, attention was focused on the cast. The backdrop was simple and not in- tended to take a decisive part in the play. Three musical numbers stood out over the rest: Save the People, Bless the Lord, and All For the Best. The beginning of the second act marked a subtle change of mood. It became more serious as the climax approached. Emotion ran high, the atmosphere tense, at the Lord's Supper. The ensuing betray al and crucifixion were the high points of the play. Sound effects and dramatic lighting accented the nightmarish horror and torture of the crucifixion. The musical, however, ended on an optimistic note of implied resurrection as members of the cast left the stage carrying the body of Iesus and singing Long Live God. An impromptu ending, with an invitation from the cast for the audience to join them onstage, completed the evening. - from the beak'n eye Above Right: Godspell cast members execute an intricate song and dance sequence.

Diversity is the key word used to describe the student body of West High School. The students range in height from four to seven feet and weigh from ninety to two hundred sixty pounds. As far as food goes, cake, potato chips, twinkies, and cookies are included in some lunch sacks, while others contain tomatoes, grapes, cucumbers, and celery. Other students buy lunch for parts of itj every day. Modes of transportation also vary. Some students drive cars while others drive trucks or vans. Still others ride bikes, hitchhike, or just plain hoof itf'. Some Falcons go out for athletics and some are just fans i just as all West students do not have purple shoes, not all West students live in the same kind of abode. Besides the typical house, students inhabit apartments trailers, or sprawling farm homes. 1 Houses 37 Some prefer the countr Farms are fairly common in the country, but not all country people are farmers. One doesn't have to be planted in the middle of a cornfield to be considered an inhabitant of the country. Where is the country then? ls it a place filled with strange characters like the stereotyped hick below? No! lt is the pleasant area where the people live in a primarily agricultural community. lt is a place with rolling rows of corn, with wild ravines filled with briars and brooks, with bright red barns, and with bumpy gravel roads. The country is where the air is clean, where trees grow in place of cement, and where pheasants fly. One West High sophomore says of the country, It's like a whole different world! Everyone knows everyone else because there aren't as many people out here. The only thing is that where I live, everyone knows everyone else's business, too! fe? if Illlwlil' ll w W l l ' w r J i l W l 1 l , t A wld l l f CountryLife 38 Top, Left To Right: Ken Buesing mounts his trusty Allis Chalmer quite willingly when it's covered for the season. 4' v is L 4635 ig E539 glow MM 'mf M Tellingitlikeitisz v P .

The city is also infected by the early morning blahs of school life. Traffic jams, bustling shopping centers, and smoky taverns are all vital parts of life in the City. But the city is not all hustle and bustle. If one can manage to squirm through the downtown traffic to get to the library, he will find a comparatively quiet retreat. The school is a quiet place too . . , in the summer. The city overflows with both conveniences and hassels. It is sprinkled with short order restaurants, candy machines, landr-o-mats, movie theaters, broken elevators, detours, air pollution, and uncovered manholes. There are swimming pools, mud puddles of mammoth proportions, golf courses, floods, skating rinks, bright new houses, termites, parks, rusty drinking fountains, tall office buildings, cracked sidewalks, parking meters and schools. All of these things keep city dwellers clear of the dangers of excess boredom. They add variety and interest to everyday life. A charming, yet alarming combination of' contrasts, the city is at once exciting and humdrum. 40 City Life f - rfsismiil Top Left: The clock on the Davenport Bank and Trust Building is a well known landmark.

From Left to Right: A West I-hgh student boards the b bikes are a good mode of transportationg who wants to gooo 9000 OOO Joe Cool got up at 7 a.m. Since it usually takes him 20 minutes to drive to school, he still had 35 minutes to wash his hair, make his bed, get dressed, eat breakfast, put the cat out, clean up the table, brush his teeth, and leave. He marched out to the car, started it, killed it, started it, killed it, started it again, killed it again, and started it. When he final- ly got it in gear and pulled into the street, he barely missed an old lady. Then he almost smashed two kids on bikes, three kids fighting, a souped up 1957 Chevy, a school bus carreening wildly up Waverly Road, and an empty garbage can rolling down the hill. He swallowed hard as he passed the garbage can and headed up the incline. Suddenly, the car began to rattle and shake wildly! He had a flat tire.

Please circle the points that apply to your study habits. A. It was seven p.m. on a lonely rainy Thursday night. My parents were out for the evening, and the television was in the repair shop. I was halfway down the basement steps before I remembered that the stereo had a short. I knew then that it was going to be one of those nights. In a last ditch effort to avoid the inevitible, I threw on my coat, grabbed the car keys, and proceeded to try to start up Old Faithful. It was useless. I was to find out later that some- one had siphoned the gas tank. Finally, accepting defeat, I entered my bed- room and gazed blindly at the stack of books I had carted home. For the first time in months, I would do my homework. 46 Studying 1 Above: The library provides a quiet place for junior Dannette Lowry to do her homework.

Students hover over computers, searching for solutions to their math problems. These students would find their classes much more difficult without them. But these attitudes change when it comes to the computer that catches otherwise proficient class dodgers. The computer then ceases to be a friend to students, and it changes into a stool pigeon. The general opinion is that the computerized method of keeping track of attendence is all too efficient. The number of students in 207 shows its effectiveness. Now, more than ever, skippers are being caught and sent to that notorious room - 207. Computers are the cause of a whole new tradition at West. Friday the thirteenth is no longer a dreaded day. Monday in 207 is a far more unlucky number. Above Left: Students line up in the attendance office to plea their cases before a probable sentence to 2.07.

Fashion tells people what looks nice and what doesn't. Nowadays, fashion tells us that whatever looks nice on the individual is fashionable. This is called the individualistic lookx W . However, there are some ways of doing your own thing that are more popular than others. These are called the fashion trends. This year, many girls have chosen to wear longer skirts going below their knees. They also wear fancy ats Q with these skirts. The shoes that go with this 4O's look look something like this Q . Many girls like to wear big, furry coats .These are warm and cozy cover at foot- ball games. Of course, all girls like wearing jeans and pants, and there are many nifty kinds of western shirts to go with them. There is even a new style of socks which allow the toes to move around Guys have fashion, t o. Many guys have found that wearing suspenders looks pretty sharp. They especially like wearing workshirts some of which are plaid flannel, W and some of which are denim with embroidery on them Qi . Guys are wearing some pretty heavy looking hats this year. too. Both guys and girls like wearing overalls The trend toward natural W fabrics, like muslin, has continued this year. A new style of shoes, called earth shoes, has caught on quickly. These shoes have a lower heel than rnost S , and this is supposed to make walking more comfortable. f In December, several students m at West pre- sented a fashion show for the school. These students modeled W clothes lent to them by several area stores and donated the money they made to the Student Union. 54 Fashion f fashions Above: Ofeen Harrington strikes a pose in the West High Fashion Show.

Y nf' Taking it Most of the people who manage to wrestle a little free time from the trauma of the classroom spend it in the cafete- ria or library, depending on the degree and amount of home- work they have. Sophomore Dan Riedesel sums it up when he says, I'm in the cafeteria or serving detentions in 207. Kathie Nolan, also a sophomore, says, I go to study hall and talk, eat, and have fun. Not everyone can be found in the cafeteria or library though. Senior Debbie Pick sometimes goes into the gym to shoot baskets, andljim Beran, junior, spends his free time in the computer room. Sherry Jackson has her classes blocked through 4th hour, but two or three times a week she stays to work on jewelry, in metal crafts and ceramics, or work on painting for art. Holly Christ, junior, watches people in her free time. People are fun to watch - their expressions and reactions,' Holly mused. 1 56 Free Time a Above: Janice Piett ponders the crowd near the zoo.

Hey! Where are you guys going now? A familiar phrase rings out from the crowd. Oh, I don't know. Let's go get something to eat. I'm starved. And, if you checked the area's restaurants, you would find many West High students indulging in one of the most popular and fulFILLINC hobbies -eating. This sport, how- ever is not limited to after-school hours, but it also provides a major source of entertainment dur- ing an otherwise boring, humdrum day. Its popularity can be measur- ed just noticing the places where students go in their free hours. First of all, there is the cafeteria where it is perfectly legal to partake in this sport. Food is even provided for those who are lucky enough to possess fifteen elf cents. A smaller number of brave students dare the administrative system and sneak off into some of the remote corners of West High to chompg or, if they really have guts, they defy threats of 207 and leave school altogether in order to have a larger selecion of goodies. For many, lunch is the highlight of the day, and, in any fourth or fifth hour class, there are a number of eager stomachs having their own sort of pre-game pep aud - complete with growls and cheers to celebrate the up-coming twenty minute holiday.

Premarital sex, alcohol, and religion are topics which once were hush hush but now they are treated with a more open attitude, as a limited sam- pling at West and interviews with community leaders seem to point out. It has become much more open in our social problems classes, agreed Sharon Boyd and Robert Williams, teachers at West. Williams added, Ten or fifteen years ago these subjects wer- en't mentioned. I think the change has come with people talking about it. Dr. Truce Ordono from the Com- munity Mental Health Center explains, People are more free with their atti- tudes. Also, student feelings are exag- gerated because of an information ex- plosion and the age of the media. These values were demonstrated as many students wrote comments on a small survey taken at West. Some views on marriage under 18 were, They could wait 'til they were older if they really loved each other. Many times young people believe marriage to be romantic, but it's more than that: it's responsibility, unselfish- ness, concern, love, and hard work. I object to it unless there's an emer- gency such as pregnancy. Mark Olsen, a church youth direc- tor, expressed his feelings, Most peo- ple in that age bracket get married be- cause that makes pregnancy look more respectable. It would seem to me that marriage for most high school students is thought of in some sort of dreaming, Q. 'ima 64 Attitudes Q EBEER y if fit? ffffxfffy-f s fanciful way. I think people should live together before marriage, one student said. That way they wouldn't be disap- pointed by their mate's ways and won't have to go through red tape for di- vorce. This must be the opinion of many others also. As Dr. Ordono said, There is a definite rise in premarital sex, but not promiscuityf' Laura Lehmann, director of the Dav- enport Commision on Youth feels, Sex- ual morals have changed drastically with the advent of the pill. On abortion, another area which con- cerns values, Williams gives his views, You would have to be very extreme not to consider abortion in the case of rape, especially considering age. However, the thought of abortion is pretty repulsive for many people. In my class discussions all it comes down to is whether or not it is murder, and much of it is based on what they've been religiously taught. Boyd gave another point of view, It used to be if the girl was pregnant, that was her problem, but now guys in my classes indicate that fathers should be part of the decision and at least be con- sulted before abortion. A junior commented on this subject, If a girl thinks she can have fun on the side and not take the responsibility for her actions, she is wrong. Abortions due to selfishness and permissiveness are murder. Alcohol and drugs are also subjects that are discussed more openly now. Dr. Ordono gave his view on them: These are just a smoke screen, and behind it there is usually an alienation from socie- ty, school, or some internal alienation. Williams feels, Most students seem pretty knowledgeable about alcohol and what it can do to you, and it seems to be more acceptable to parents than drugs. Also, it's cheaper and legal. Many West students seem to believe in what this senior says, I don't ap- prove of people smoking pot, but I don't condemn others if they do. The seriousness of possessing mari- juana is getting to be a local option, Williams commented. In some places it's only considered a misdemeanor, a 'traffic-ticket-type' thing. A West youth summed up his feelings on smoking, alcohol, and drugs by say- ing, There are much better ways to have fun. Of the 210 students surveyed at West, 53 per cent objected to people evading the draft. However, one opinion given was, No one should be expected to kill for the good of the country unless he feels the cause is just in his own heart. The people surveyed objected most strongly to shoplifting. Why should lazy people get something for nothing when the rest of us have to work? was the general opinion. Williams thinks that school still has a higher value than outside work. It's a minority that don't make it because of a job. I think it's a good thing because it brings in extra money and gives the kids some independence, he stated. The general feeling is that religion should be an important factor in people's lives, but they don't really need to go to church. One student commented, I tried church for ten years and never got any- thing out of it. Nobody should be forced to go. Williams says of his students, They see church members not living the life of a Christian and their attitude is 'take it or leave it. ' I-Iow do parents react to this opening of attitudes? Lehmann comments, I think its hard for parents to cope, it's bewildering. Almost always there is a conflict of the student's and parents' values in any case we deal with. Another viewpoint was given by Ol- sen, I don't feel that parents have to adjust to the change in attitudes as much as they must adjust to the change in their role as parents. Many parents cannot handle the adjustmentg others are trying. The latter is a very admirable position. It's hard to pinpoint a definite trend in values. I-Iowever, the gap between par- ents and students may be getting small- er. George Mihaly, president of the Gil- bert Research Co. surveyed 684 seniors across the U.S. He says, Last spring nearly 85 per cent reported that they generally agreed with their parents' ideas and values. Four years ago, the figure was 61 percent. According to a survey of 26,000 high school leaders recently released by Who's Who Among American High School Students. There is a resurgence of tra- ditional values in the religious and moral realms. Evidently the revolutionary mood of the late '60's' has faded, and the pendulum is swinging back toward more traditional values Lehmann tells what the Commission on Youth does to help people with their moral conflicts, We have a family coun- seling where we go out to the home and deal with the problem when it's fresh. Also, we coordinate with other agencies if the problem is very serious. The Community Mental I-Iealth Cen- ter is engaged in primary prevention, reaching out into the community and educating people, stated Dr. Ordono. We teach parents and students to detect emotional illness before it becomes very bad. Also, we have group discussions and classes on subjects such as divorce, separation, and death, besides our main work of helping those who contact us. Olsen tells of his youth group, We , ... .. .. 9 'gl . 3. .a .34 ' 41 tm u ,yin 'A-1-.' 5 gl ' 1 tx. . s t.'s. v. Upper Right: Sociology teacher Bob Williams explains his thoughts on modern morality.

Following the presentation of Don Waterstreet, people at West began discussing the extent of humanization of their school. Here are some of their comments. In speaking of the possible problems of size, sociology teacher Bob Williams said, I see a difference in academic size and extracurricular size. Academically, it's not a big school. Twenty to twenty'-five kids in a class is a reasonable number. Extra- curricularly, it's a big school. Senior Beth Martin said, You only come in contact with one or two hundred people. More personal contact is needed. Student Union President jim Craig had a different angle, I wonder if size is just an excuse for our problems. If we moved our population down to one thousand, we'd still have 99'Z, of our problems. The lack of involvement is another aspect that students consider. One student observed, People complain that they cannot get involved because they don't know what's going on: but when you try to tell them, they donft listen! Craig agreed, saying that even though everyone claims to want to get involved, it was always the same thirty people who worked on committees and helped decorate for dances. Tom Green, a sophomore, commented, There's a bunch of different things you can do to get recognized - get involved in debate, football, theater -there's no excuse. He added that many people just figured they wouldn't be able to make it, so they didn't try. That's a big cop out. Dick Shultz, a speaker on group dynamics, summarized, There is an opportunity to do things, if you're willing to risk it. Trent Hovenga had an explanation for the existence of clowns. He said, They are just people looking for recognition. He also felt that the people who do well and are recognized for it are teased by the jealous unknowns. For example, Hovenga said, they don't pat a good football player on the back, they kid him about being a jock. Craig added, The things that are emphasized are the negative things. Being just one of the masses is a common, but according to teacher Dennis Moeller, unnecessary feeling. He says, Student Union homeroom is an excellent opportunity to get your opinion known. Your feelings will never be known if you keep them within yourself. It is not only your privilege, but your responsibility to let your feelings be known in Student Union homeroom. He added that it is useless to join a clique and hide in a corner. Senior Cindy Hadley felt that people should take a personal interest in people. The big stumbling block is that many teachers don't express interest. But, Williams said, there is a fine line between showing interest and being noseyf' Still another block in the way of good human relations is prejudice. Hadley stressed that it must be eliminated. People must be willing to accept the broader spectrum. Stereotypes are wrong. pinion pinion pinion0pinion pir 68 Opinion if Senior Barb Buddin questioned, Aren't stereotypes a safety valve? They can work either way. Sarah Wilkerson, another senior, thought that although everyone had prejudices, it was really bad when they don't respect your personal prejudices. Senior Dan Feeney gave the classic example of prejudice, Central stereotypes West as middle class snobs. The student-faculty committee was formed to help better student-teacher relations, but students aren't very optimistic. Senior Peggy Stafford said, l don't think that teachers and students can get on a good relationship. The relationship has been too formal for too long. Wilkerson agreed. She stressed that teachers were trained to avoid involvement with students. She also observed that the training must have been revised, The younger teachers coming up seem to be having an easier time, so they must have made some changes. Feeney didn't think teachers and students should be pals I-le said, I think there should be a distance between teachers and students. Craig, however, suggested, Put them on a people-to-people basis instead of a teacher- to-student basis. Shultz said rather ironically, The teachers have no purpose without students.

The Davenport varsity baseball team again took the Metro conference as they posted a 23-13 record for the season. They lost a bid for the state title on a controversial play against Maquoketa. In the seventh inning with men on first and second, one out, and the score 3-2 Davenport, a fly ball was hit to left fielder Maury Betzel. His momentum carried him through the snow fence and to the ground. The umpires ruled he dropped the ball as he fell, permitting two runs to score and dropping West out of the state tournament. Nonetheless, the West team had a fine year with Del Ryan and Mike Ormsby leading the team. Both of them were picked to the first team of the district selections while Tim Harris and Dave Anderson were picked for the second team. Mike Ormsby was chosen as the team's most valuable player and Maury Betzel was picked as the most improved player.

Coach Foy's team held a 2.6 percent winning edge over second place Moline. In the last three years West's cumulative record has grown to 28-17. Last year's sophs finished with a 10-3 record, while Alleman followed with 9-5. Mark Schneider led the batters with a .468 batting record -two home runs, eighteen runs batted in and twenty stolen bases. Dave Chapman finished second with a .458 batting clip and ten runs batted in. Ken Cunningham led the pitchers with thirty-nine strike outs and thirty-one innings pitched. Mark Turner finished with the best record at 3-O. With such strong sophomore teams, it's no wonder that varsity has dominated the Metro Conference for as long as they have. Sophomores are good for something.

The girls' track team, with Dennis Moeller and Rich Fehlman guiding them, finished with a 1-2. meet record. In the first meet of the season at Bettendorf, West finished second. In a dual meet against Cedar Rapids, West finished first. West's last meet was in the Cedar Rapids Invitational and had West finishing with a State qualifier. The girls' track program is now in it's second year but this is the first year for the girls' cross country team. The girls worked hard all year and even when the season was over the girls continued to run, but were disappointed in only having three meets during the fall. The girls are very optimistic about this team and are very sure with time the girls' track team is going to develop into one of the very strong teams at West. Cheryl Gill summed up the season best with I think it was really worthwhile. ' Girls' Track. 77 QC It takes special qualities to become a long distance runner, and West track coach Don Lange feels he has found those special qualities in Ryan Ebel. It takes determination and perseverance to become a good runner and Ryan has both of these. The tall, lanky senior was asked what kind of secret he had to keep him going when he got tired. When I run, I just hum a song. The best thing to do is something to keep you from realizing how tired you really are. The track boys keep long hours practicing, more than most other schools in the area. The tracksters have practice at 6:00 a.m. and then practice right after school. Because track receives little recognition and requires a lot more work than most other sports, one would wonder why a person would choose to run track. I was too short for basketball, and too small for football, so I just started running track. Ryan said. - Z 2,014 I 5:5555 I K 6 it A, N rearfm exft .N-it get 54, R Sf! 'ik USS?

Below: At last, a rest. Tracksters finish disappointing season Coach Lange finished this season with a disappointing record of 2-8. However, he felt his team could have finished much higher. If Ryan Ebel had not had an injury-prone season he could have helped a lot more than he did. But nonetheless the long distance runners finished very well in the state with eighteenth place out of all the high schools in Iowa. They also finished fourth in the conference, falling behind crosstown rival Central who finished first. West's hardest defeat was at the hands of Clinton who beat them by thirty points. One of West's only two wins were over Assumption in the fourth meet of the year, with a one point win of 29-30. The other win was against Rock Island Alleman, when the West squad handily defeated Alleman 23-37. West also finished strong in the Pekin Invitational, with 285 points which brought them a tie for second place. All in all, West finished with a poor record but had good showings in several meets.

Leading in singles matches were No. 1 and 2 Kathy Vogt and Nancy Williams. In doubles me Coach Williamson found the leadership in Kathy Vogt. Sally Albright and Stacy Green-Cheryl Vhynak ranking No. 1 and No. 2, respectively. The team was made up primarily of seniors, but there is a fine group of sophomores and juniors to replace the graduating seniors. Among the underclassmen on the team were juniors Stacy Green, Jane Ripslinger, jane Pash and Pam Ehlers and sophomores Sally Albright and Bobett Puckett. Angie Hufford, a senior with three years experience on the tennis squad, summed up the past season with, We had a great season and I'm pretty sure this was one of our best seasons.

Coach Williamson finds first year little trouble Even though some coaches might have trouble during their first year of coaching at a new school, and even more trouble if it's their first year coaching a sport they've never coached before, Mrs. Gayle Williamson in her first year as girls' varsity tennis coach seemed to find it no problem at all. l don't think this being my first year has had that much effect on the girls' performance. The team has a lot of talent and I just try to help them with motivation. Mrs. Williamson transferred to West after coaching every girls' sport offered in St. Cloud, Minnesota, but this was her first year coaching tennis. Sue Voss, a senior with three years experience on the West tennis squad, expressed her feelings about her coach. She has helped me a lot in motivation. Before each meet she would encourage me as well as the team. Mrs. Williamson always tells us we can win and to not let your opponent 'psych you out.' The small-framed, dark-haired coach is not outspoken during matches, but her presence is always known. With clipboard under arm, she silently observes her players, with an occasional twitch in her face as one of her players misses a shot. Although Coach Williamson doesn't speak much, it's a sure bet that she will be heard from more often in the future, for she has many more winning seasons to look forward to. . 43.

K A H we , , W ff .1 f iff f Tennis is known as one of West's stronger sports, and it is in many ways quite unique. Boys' tennis combines both individual and team work in every meet. Coach Bob McDonald describes it this way, In doubles matches we get two boys who can work together with about the same abilities and personalities. That makes a good doubles team. They work together as a team but also work as individuals, whereas in singles it's entirely a personal effort. Last year the West team finished with a 12-12 record for the season. However, this season, the West netters finished with a 2-6 record. . Leading West as the ifl and 4792 players were Rick Hoff and Mike Kronig. Being a member of the boys' tennis team involves a good deal of extra work. All summer the squad works on improvement and during school they spend two hours a day, five days a week. Two to three hours are spent over the weekend on challenges, so each player devotes nearly fifteen hours a week to tennis. When asked if playing a sport that gets little recognition affects his players' performances, Coach McDonald answered, Since tennis is an individual sport, the greatest recognition is that you know how you've done and you feel you did a good job. The players get all their recognition from within. me--it . - . EW Q X' e ....t. tes Abovep Dave Zindel has time for a smile for the camera before a shot.

We even had to pay for our own trophys, added Mimi Chouteau, a two year player on the state championship team. Cindy Peters, a three year player, said, We had to pay for our own buses if we wanted them, so anytime we went anywhere we almost always went in cars. We had to make all our own money, Cindy continued, We had bake sales, washed house trailers, and then there was a swim-a-thon that helped a lot. The whole thing really pulled us together as a team. Most schools didn't have enough girls interested, but West was well represented. ...... 'Q it . it i M.. A . , fi 1 V' -m.,m,' .. vsw zl g - - fiigffv . .'

But some of the sophomore football players found the switch not that hard to make. Yeah, there is a difference between high school and junior high football but it wasn't hard to get used to, was the way Paul Hein, a standout defensive back and one of the keys to the sophomore defense, felt. Rob Colson, sophomore of the week in the first week of play, added One difference is the coaches are always there to help you. Another thing was at Williams we used one set of plays all season long, but here at West we'd keep switching plays every week. At West you have all the guys from all the other junior highs, and where you may have been first string last year you may only be second string this year and that's one of the biggest things to get used to said Mike I-Iartzel, a good player at Williams last year but second string behind Andy Bolwar this year. All these players had different ideas, but all agreed on one thing.

The West sophomore football team didn't exactly follow in the footsteps of the varsity iwho could?j but nonetheless finished with a 5-4 record. Leading the sophomores in offense were Andy Bolwar and Dave Fitzgerald, and on defense the team counted on Paul Hein and Pat Dunn. Coach Mel Warner was quite pleased with the season, this being the best for the sophs since 1962. But Coach Warner's prized accomplishment was his 13-8 win over Cedar Rapids Iefferson, who finished first in the Mississippi Valley Conference this year. Another accomplishment was Andy Bolwar's 98-year run from scrimmage - a new West record. Finishing on a good note with a 49-O win over Burlington and an undefeated B squad, who only yielded eight points thewhole season, the varsity coaches need not worry about next year with such a fine squad of players to replace the leaving seniors.

As the announcer at Brady Street Stadium boomed on, the West football players ran to the locker room on the south side of the building. And now we're proud to present the Davenport Central marching band the announcer shouted. But what are the football players doing? Are they being given the rah, rah, let's go team, or are they quietly sitting, resting, for the second half to begin? I had anticipated a Coach Harrington verbal lashing of his players, but with a 14-O lead he had little to say. But then, it's all quite anticlimatic after you get inside no matter what the score is. ' The locker room looks like any other locker room you may have seen, with showers dividing two rooms of lockers. One room has a chalkboard on the wall. As the players trudged into the locker room, they divided into two sections. One section went to the room with the lockers and benches, and one group went into the room with the chalkboard with a few scattered players going into the shower room or to a disarray of Faucets on the wall. The players then took off their helmets and filled them with water to quench their thirst. I soon learned starting offensive players went into the room with the blackboard, and defensive players went into the other room to psych themselves up. Coach Cy Robertson went over to the blackboard and started to diagram a play that wasn't working the first half. Steve Garner, an offensive lineman, then added his feelings on the play. But Coach, if the fullback pulls this way... I could hear little from the other room except scattered shouts of nonsense such as Yea. Way to kick their ass and other such popular expressions. The reserves stood around and talked between themselves, with some other players starting to get up and walk around now. After about five minutes Coach Harrington and assistants started walking toward the exit doors. Most of the players were now up mingling around with more scattered shouts being added to the E nervous atmosphere. Coach Harrington got the attention of the players with an O.K. guys, listen up. All was quiet now as the coach added his words of wisdom. We've held them so far and you've done a great job. Cheers from the players. But they're going to come out tough. More cheers and a Let's kick their ass from an unidentified player, followed by cheers of agreement. Coach Harrington concluded, Let's get out there and get them. All the players screamed, ran out to the field and proceeded to squash Central. Whether this brief intermission seemed to be useful for spectators or not, it certainly appeared to do a great deal for the team. 92 Football 1 Left: Greg Deines jumps for joy.

Falcons finish 11-O As most students have heard, the Davenport West varsity football team finished a fine season and wound up with the state championship. West was rated number one in the state through all of the season but one week. The season started on a shaky note with West just edging out Cedar Rapids Jefferson 21-20. The second game was also close as the team pulled out a 13-10 win over Assumption. West really showed what they were made of in the third game of the season with a 42-14 win over United Township High School. After this game West moved into the number one spot in offense and number two position in defense in the Metro. West won over Wahlert 21-7 in the fourth game of the season to make their mark 4-0. In a defensive battle in Rock Island, West pulled out a 7-0 victory with a fumble coming in the closing minutes of the game just as Rock Island was ready to score to ensure the victory for West. West walloped Central 34-0 to remain undefeated. In the next game West pulled ahead of Moline to win 28- 7. West's homecoming game proved a success as West beat Alleman 22-14. In West's next game West beat Burlington 28-13. The Falcons convincingly won its next game against Des Moines North 50-14 with the second string coming in as early as the third quarter. The state championship was wrapped up in Ames as West pulled out a 14-10 win over West Des Moines Dowling. Down 10-0 in the first quarter West's defense held the Dowling team scoreless the rest of the way with the help of three goal line stands by the excellent Falcon defense. f. Football 93 The 1974-75 girls' volleyball season got off to a slow start after O r y e a r I only a week of practice. After dropping the first four meets, West came back for a victory over Clinton. The taste of victory was short lived, though, as West went on to drop the next three games. But West refused to be trampled underneath and came back to win three games. Miss Smith, the volleyball coach, who was absent for most of the season, felt that the team did not play a Consistent game. They let down every few minutes after a good play. Mary Kremer, a senior, echoed Miss Smith's sentiments. I'd say the major reason for losing was because our team got down when we were behind, and it is very difficult to come from behind and change when the team is like this This stable feeling may have caused the many rather close games that West had to play. Sue Bitterman, a junior, said many of the games were toss-ups. Either team could have won, we just came out on the wrong end. As the season progressed, this feeling left the players as they captured three meets in a row. Vicky Nelson, a senior, 2 commented, The first few games we were scared. It took us a nk , V, while to get together, but then we did better. . W Sue Bitterman disagreed. I think we played better than last ii ,wp year, and we worked together better than ever before. Having a new coach didn't seem to bother anyone too much as . J the season progressed. As Mary commented, At first it was T difficult to adjust to the new coachingg but as the season M ,, 1 progressed, we knew what she expected from us, and she knew .H what we expected of her.

Volleyblll 95 Almost all Americans have been brought up believing winning is the main thing in life. You have to win to get ahead. You have to win to be somebody. Everybody loves a winner. So why would a wrestler in his first year at West move up to varsity and wrestle grapplers three and four times better than his sophomore opponents? Mark Ritchey was faced with the decision of wrestling sopho- more or varsity. It gives me experience getting beat. Sure it hurts your mental attitude but it makes me work harder. The small muscular grappler commented, All of them have a few more years experience on me, and they're much better wrestlers than what I would wrestle in soph- omore, and I have to give every thing I have just to get close. After the meet against East Moline, Coach Mel Warner told Mark he'd be wrestling sophomore again. But the quiet, reserved sophomore wasn't upset. Ray CRodri- guezl lost weight and moved down to a lower weight class where I'm wrestling, so he'll take my place and someone else will take his. Those few meets I wrestled will help alot. I'll probably be moving up and down depending on Ray's weight. Though Mark doesn't know one day to another where he'll be wrestling, one thing is certain. Wherever Mark Ritchey wrestles, he'll be helping West High School. Soph. wrestling - fc wid! 96 Wrestling f iEf' f1ifT' fiiffi- A If112 '1ii ' iz il- 'I , gj X yt.. I... .

During the year, The grapplers were also involved in six wrestling tournaments, and pulled out a second place finish in four of the contests. Highlights ofthe 1974-1975 season included a huge victory over Central with a score of 52-O. The wrestlers also clearly won in meets with Assumption, Rock Island, and Alleman. The match with North Scott ended in a 21-21 tie. Two champions, Doug Ahrens at 105 and Dan Feeney at 145, emerged from the Warrior Invitational. To end the season, West finished second to Bettendorf in the Quad City area 3A sectionals. The grapplers sent eight wrestlers to district. These eight were Ray Rodriguez, Trent Hovenga, Mark La Croix, Chris Iuerhing, Doug Ahrens, Kerry Kuehl, Dan Feeney, and Dave Fitzgerald, with the latter four finishing in fourth place.

Rocky finished this year at 12-4 for the season and was one of the eight falcon matmen that advanced to the district meet. I started wrestling in ninth grade but I hardly wrestled at all so my sophomore year was really my first. I finished 12-5 as a sophomore and 19-7-2 as a junior. I was also on the football team which is quite an understatement to say the least. Peeney played nose guard and played a key role on the defensive unit for the state championship team. Dan is also invoved in the Boys Recreation Association, Lettermans Club, Student Union, and is the Senior Class president. I feel a student should only represent himself at school. Around school you have to meet up to certain expectations but after that I like to fool around like everyone else. f Wrestling 99 100 Girlls Swimming f New attitudes and new records One way to put a winning attitude on a team coming off a winless year is to set some records, as most ofthe girls from the West swim team will agree. Kim Murphy, who broke the 100 yard butterfly and the 100 yard backstroke record, said, When someone breaks a record it helps team spirit. All the girls get involved and it makes everyone else work that much harder. Last year we hardly had any hope at all and that's what they CKim Murphy and Theresa Martinj gave us. After Kim broke a couple of those records at Dubuque everybody realized we really had something going, explained Nancy Sinclair, a member of last year's team and one of the four girls who broke the 200 yard medley relay record.

This seems to be the case for the girls' gymnastics team, for attendance at their meets is up 100 percent, while their record is up almost as much. We were lucky if we got five parents to come to a meet last year. This year we have about fifty people at every home meet. It's really fantastic, said TamiMohler, who noticed quite a difference in the attendance this year. Betty Reagan, a senior, felt the rise in attendance was caused by the girls. First of all, the girls on the team got out and really pushed people to come out and see the meets. We re having a really good year and hopefully will place well in district. Last year's team finished with a 2-9 record and were sixth in the district, while this year's team is performing better than the record shows. I don't know what the difference is this year, but we've done a lot better and that's what's important, was the way Sue Colby reacted to this year's change. Tami Mohler added, We'd like to thank everyone for supporting the team this year the way they did. It really helped us a lot.

Early this fall, a few dedicated sophomore boys started conditioning for the basketball season, while the rest of the school was still dreaming about state football champs. Coach Cline commented that, Officially, we started practice in October, but the boys conditioned earlier by lifting weights, jogging, and working on their agility. After practice started officially, the boys began working on plays. Most of the time we went over plays, zone defense, and offensive plays. At the end of practice we run wind sprints and 'Lines, said Rick DellaVedova, a sophomore who has been playing since ninth grade. Both Chad Steckel and Rick agreed that working on individual skills and team skills helped them equally. Rick felt that practice itself helps a lot. The coaches have some individua help, but all the real help came from hard practicing, which really helped improve my skills On the weekends, a few of the boys practiced at the YMCA, but not that often, since they were busy practicing as a team at school six out of the seven days of the week. To practice that many days of the week, a team must be extremely dedicated andfor like the game. When asked if he liked practice, Rick said, It was o.k. I mean, some people like it, but then some don't. That's just how it is. Chad echoed Rick's sentiments as he said, Sure, I like it.

However, You can't let it bother you, according to senior Dave Hansen. If you let it get to you, you don't play as well. The desire to become state champions can also be a source of stress. Our'ultimate goal is state, explains Steckel. It's always inthe back of your mind. Even being off the floorcan be a strain, for, Steckel says, You want to get ia there and be part of it. However, this pressure, like all the others, is something the cagers learn to deal with. On the bench, according to senior Al Hering, You watch your man so you know what to do when you get in.

Although schools now encompass many other areas, their primary concern is still education. Within this building there are people learning to play an instrument, learning to speak Spanish, French, or German, learning to understand Shakespeare, learning how to prepare a three-course meal, learning to program a computer, learning to swim, learning chemical theories, and learning to write poetry. Learning is the base of all that is happening at West, for it is what draws us into a community. In a school of West's size, everyone finds their own niche where they can grow and develop their particular interests. Clubs provide these niches and also offer a chance to interact with students sharing the same interest. Many clubs have long, rich histories, while others, such as the Martial Arts Club, have only recently come into existence. Because people love people, because people like to belong, clubs abound at West. They are a specialized way to makethings happen. ,,.,-- Academics And Clubs 115 Math can make it happen 116 Math 11 N- it .-y a A V r 5 V ww a Wil 1 lg P ani .

Last year, the Math Department added a new course called Computer Languages. This class seemed to be a big success because it was offered again this year and will be offered in future years. The purpose of this class is to give the student individualized study in Cobol and Fortran, which are both languages that a compu- ter uses. The addition of two Monroe desk-top calculators this year has increased the students' appetites for computer work. The Monroe can be described as a type of self-contained programmable calculator. Mr. Kibbie, the math department head, feels that, by using the many facilities that are offered by the math department at West, a student may obtain a competent math background to do almost anything in math after high school.

The curriculum for the three levels of Biology I and for Biology II were changed. This included new books and labs. The chemistry teachers are also looking at new textbooks, possibly for the 1975-76 school year, according to Mr. I-Iudson, the Science Department head. The Science Department this year has increased in the number of students taking Earth Science. Mr. Hudson commented that, 'II can't explain why there was an increase in the Earth Science enroll- ment. I wish I could. He expects a greater increase during the 1975-76 school year than this year. Since the enrollment is increasing in the school, the Science Department is proposing the following additions to the curriculum: have semester 'courses in the pure sciences such as Botany and Genetics, and have mini courses. Another proposal is that Electricity can no longer be sub- stituted as a science course. su-audit' Far Left: Members of a Physics class study waves bythe use of Slinkies, Right and Below: Mr. jones demonstrates how to cut and stretch a frog to his Physiology class.

That's what Trees for Tomorrow is all about. Since its founding three years ago, Trees for Tomorrow has planted over 525 OO worth of trees and shrubbery around West High School's spacious campus. Trees for Tomorrow started when Mr. Adolphson and Mr. Scott and his French classes got interested in beautifying the West campus. Over a three-year period, nearly 150 trees and shrubs have been planted by students. Beautif-ying the campus doesn't mean just planting the trees, however. Every year, new trees are added, and the older ones are fertilized, watered, and trimmed. Virnatcor, with advisor Roger Adolphson, assists Trees for Tommorrow and also holds its own ecological projects. 120 Virnatcor f Above: 1' he woods and wilderness can be beautiful to walk through, but with pollution like this, the woods become ugly.

L Above and Left: Students in Larry Howes Twentieth Century World class assume the roles of ambassadors and ministers in order to better understand world affairs, U 24 Comment I am not sure exactly why I am here, a typical sophmore's statement, right? Wrong. That was Dr. Don Waterstreet, a professor of group dymanics at Western Illinois University, Macomb, Illinois. That statement pretty well summarized the hesitancy of the 80, unguided, somewhat bewildered students located in Room 207. As I sat in 207 with my peers, namely Stu- dent Union representatives from the three classes of students, I felt the same way. Why were we chosen, and what are we going to do? Besides the obvious benefits of cutting my first four classes, I really hoped to get some thing worth retaining from this experience. just what that worthwhile thing would be, I had yet to find out. Tension and silence hung heavy in the air when the door was shut at 8 a.m. The fear that I might say or do something stupid, and therefore, rate the scorn of my fellow classmates, forced me to sit quietly and properly so as not to be out of line. Waterstreat talked for a while about what he wanted to get out of this four-hour period, saying he mainly wanted to rap with us about our problems here at West and anywhere else. When he finished talking, another heavy si- lence filled the room from corner to corner, and I frantically searched my brain for something in- telligent or witty to say. But the silence only grew longer and wider, and my brain more exhausted. Finally, a senior came to rescue with an opinion Left President ,lim Craig waits patiently for members of the Union to get seated so that the business for the day can get started. Below: Many students from West helped the Union by participating in the North Park Christmas parade Union listensto Watersteet's prOgram that West should have a small school atmosphere. And from there, more people talked while I still frantically pursued my mind for a show stopper None came. After about an hour of this, Water- street turned on a tape of Dr. Lee Buscaglia, a professor at Southern California University, who teaches a class on love. The 90-minute tape proved engrossing, and several times I was moved to tears, pity, sorrow, and great happinessp all from a video- tape! When the tape ended, we all went down to the cafeteria for a snack, having foregone a break when watching Busc aglia. Excitement overflowed within me, and I wanted to tell everybody howl felt, but the peer pressure was turned on again to act proper and correct so I complied. Once again back in 207, that wonderful room emanates that inviting atmosphere, we all moved our desks into a circle and sat all proper and correct while facing each other instead of in rows as we had before. The picturel paint is perhaps exhausting and depressing, but I think some real good was done, or at least I can speak for myself. The hours were not a total presentation and were not meant to be, but I still got this tremendous mental feeling of wanting to be everyone's friend. The concrete ideas I still lacked, but my spirit was willing. The time seemed well spent and profitable, but I can't help thinking What about the other 79 ? by Sheila Brune is .- A .,-A Y Our biggest goal ffor the 1974-75 school yearj has been to improve the atmosphere around West commented lim Craig, president of the Student Union. And that is a big job to undertake. To promote this goal, the Student Union held small group of discussions with Union representatives and teachers. A Pot-Luck Supper was another activity sponsored by the Union in the hope of improving teacher-student relations. One of the issues annually discussed in Student Union is open campus and this year's Union was not one to break tradition. A new concept was debated, however, of opening the school grounds to students during lunch hours. It is hoped that this project will lead eventually to a completely open campus. Other projects pursued were exemption for seniors from second semester final exams, recreational games for the cafeteria, and a pavilion for the school grounds so students could study outdoors. But, perhaps the most ambitious far- reaching project was the ratification of a new constitution. The Student Union worked hard, and will help the 1975-76 Union get off the ground with special training by the present officers. Some future plans may be the continuing fight for open campus and better understanding among people at West. Top Left: Representatives get seated before a Union meeting.

Tom I-Iandlen, the department head, with the aid of the ASP English classes, put together volume four of the Eyas. The Eyas is a literary magazine that is written by the students of West High. I-Iarold Keller, the debate coach, took his NFL troupe to contests all over the state of Iowa, proving over and over again that West's debate is never second rate. Maskers, headed by Paul Holzworth and Marilynn Swinton, presented the musical Godspelln, and the two-act comedy Up the Down Staircase last November. Then in February, they presented The Crucible which is a play based on the Salem witch trials. Mrs. Marilynn Swinton, who started teaching at West this past year, had this to say about the Lan- uage Arts Department at West: I truly think that the Language Arts Department here is very outstanding. I like the fact that students get to make the choices for what English they want. This is the most pro- fessional faculty I've worked with. They are very human, and show concern for the students. I feel it is a privilege to be a part of such an outstanding department. Top: First District Congressman Ed Mezvinsky speaks to a class of debaters.

Shortly afterward, work was begun on the production of Godspell, which was a fantastic success, according to Thespian president Valerie Schultz. Less than a month later, even more Thespians and Maskers worked to produce Up the Down Staircase. Other performances this year included a serious drama, The Crucible, and entries in the State Contest, all of which received a division 1 rating. Among the entries was a Mime Interpretation, which sparked the formation of West's first Mime Troupe. Finally, the May production of Creativity 75 used the talents of many Maskers and Thespians.

With classes ranging from 12 to 25 students, getting to know your classmates is fun and easy. And, sometimes, you may be with the same people for up to six years in a row in the same class. Classes in foreign language naturally require speech in the language. And, although that goal is sometimes not attained, speech in English is, and many interesting topics are discussed during the course of a year. Then there is the fact that such a class is involved in teaching a FOREIGN language - a language, be it French, German, or Spanish, that not many students, or people in general, know. Having this special knowledge sometimes to give students an edge over those who do not know the language, and it seems to make the classes more fun, too.

Eating tacos and breaking pinatas are only a small part of the activities of this year's Spanish Club. The group's functions extended beyond the annual Taco Fiesta and Christmas Fiesta to fun-filled hayrack rides and skating parties, as well as an end-of-the-year campout with the other foreign language clubs. Because of its great size, Spanish Club has operated many of its functions on a mini-club basis. One group of enterprising students spent the year busily raising money to travel to Mexico City and Acapulco over the summer. an--in-ll l W :Til Another of the mini-clubs involved cooking and, of course, LJ eating Spanish and Mexican foods. The Conversation Club emphasized spoken Spanish for those members who were interested in developing their skills.

Officers, Beth Martin, President, Roland Christian, Vice- Presidentp and Sheila Foy, Secretary-Treasurer, said that profits from the sale of these donuts were used to finance many activities, such as the construction of a Beer Stein Truck which took third place in the Homecoming car rally.

Then came the word that her home for the school year would be with the Clayton Meyer family in Davenport, Iowa. I didn't even know there was such a place! Colleen exclaimed. I confused it with Ohio. To me, Iowa and Ohio were the same place. After a 24-hour bus ride from New York, Colleen got her first look at Davenport, which she admits, at first sight, struck her as hot and dirty. Now, after living here for several months, the pretty Rhodesian has come to like this town. She has met many new people and experienced many new things. It seems like I have been here all my life. It has indeed been a year of firsts and changes for Colleen. I-Ier sparkling brown eyes light up even more than usual as she tells of her new experiences. Brilliant fun, and riots are the words she uses to describe skiing, roller skating, and bowling, all things she had never done before coming to the U.S. As her stay in the U.S. comes to an end, Colleen says it will be hard to say good-bye to the many people she has met knowing that she may never see them again. This year has changed her. It has made me a lot more independent and more outspoken. Though her confidence and catching enthusiasm seem to belie it, Colleen claims that she was more shy once than she is today. But being thrown into a situation of knowing no one in a place that would be her home for a year has forced her to be more outgoing. 136 AFS 1 West High School's American Field Service Club continued in full strength this year. Among the many activities in the club's agenda were bake sales held at various times during the school year, a boatride up the Mississippi River in the summer, and the annual AFS Week held in February. With a club membership of more than 80 students this past year, the club was able to function well. But, more importantly, people in AFS Club helped to make the AFS experience a pleasant and fullfilling one for those students, native and foreign, who were involved in the program. ,. lawn 3 1 F Q., I 'Wg V 2 'QQ Am ,, .bw ...W 17' 'xv ti' :V 1 A Above: The infamous A.F.S.

Lutz discovers a different way of life Life in America is strikingly different in many ways, according to West A.F.S. exchange student, Lutz Erdmann. Coming from Berlin, West Germany, where he attends a smaller school than West, Lutz notices that the rules and regulations are stricter at West than at his German school. He had never heard of detentions before he came here. Also, the whole system of education is different in Germany, as only ten years of schooling are required, and there is a choice of three different levels of schooling after one passes elementary school. At West, Lutz is not the loud and rowdy type and blends in with the student body, spending his free time doing homework and participating in clubs such as the Martial Arts Club. He also spends time at the YMCA with joe-B. Platt, his American brother, and goes to A.l3.S. weekends. However, he recalls that his life in Berlin is different. Playing the electric guitar in a band at his music school is one of his pastimes. Lutz also likes going to art shows in his hometown. Furthermore, he explains, it is easier for men and women to go out in Berlin because they go dutch, so that the man is not restricted because he doesn't yet have enough money to pay for them both. 1 AFS 137 Driver Education offers classroom 1.-all' RIV Above: A Driver Ed. student has the look of concentration on her face as she drives at the range.

This is the attitude of many students at West who don't know what D.E.C.A. is, except that they sell candy to raise money. D.E.C.A. provides seniors in high school with an opportunity to work at a job that will provide knowledge in marketing and salesmanship. The students must have a job to qualify as members of D,E.C.A., and they must be seniors in high school, commented Jim Townsend, the club's advisor. This past year there were 29 members and the jobs varied from working at a cheese store to cashiering to secretarial work. Not only do the students work, but they participated in an area contest in February. They placed first, second, and honorable mention in various fields of competition.

M During the 1974-75 school year, the ln- dustrial Arts department had the same classes and about the same number of students enrolled in that department, but according to Mr. Gertner, department head, there will be two changes in the curriculum for the 1975-76 school year. One of these changes is the addition of a course on industrial plastics that is one semester in length. The other change is the addition of an in- dependent study course. This course will be offered to seniors who want to take another semester of a particular area that they would want to specialize in. To get into this class the student must have the approval of an in- dustrial arts teacher. Once again the advanced carpentry class built a house for a class project, The house, with landscaping, was said to be valued at S42,000.

During the past year, the number of girls enrolling in Home Ec. has been decreasing while the number of boys increased. Not only did the enrollment change, but so did the curriculum. Chef's Training was dropped, and the foods class had its beginning class offered second semester. Changes that were made that will take place next year are: all foods classes will be a semester long, two new sewing classes fChildren's Clothing and Sewing with Knitsj will be offered, and Child Development will only be a semester course instead of a year course. This expanded curriculum means that the department will be covering even more areas within Home Economics. sx Nc- e R J 146 Home Economics if Food classes will be ,,..l,.f's 1wa,,,wt' u.

W' The lighter side by Mark Ruebling Dear Deb, Remember when we were in college, and you told me not to become a Home Economics teacher because the pay was ridiculously low, the hours frightful, and that my nerves would be on edge constantly? You were right. The students still don't understand the difference between boiling and frying, and it took them three tries before they successfully boiled water. Their pancakes turned green, their English muffins bounced, their brownies were unbreakable, and there's this strange growth on the pots and pans. I haven't found out exactly what it is yet, but it's bitten three students so far. The students also have this bad habit of replacing mazola oil with Peach Thrill! There ws a fire yesterday with the Tang toast, but no one was injured fbetter luck next timej. You were right in saying this was a dangerous occupation. I'm afraid I can't take the strain, the constant fear that I'll have to taste the student's food, and that I will get some strange, unknown disease just from being in such an atmosphere. I'm ready to try a more peaceful occupation. I would like to know if there is any openings where you are working? I have little training in that area, but I think I would make a fairly good Per-Mar guard, don't you think?

Also, dedicated group of musicians played at the pep auds that were held for the football and basketball games. Later, a large delegation of West High musicians made their way to the all-state music festival which was held in Des Moines. With Christmas came a combined West-Central band concert at the Masonic Temple. In May, the 160 bancl members trekked to Burlington for the Tri-City Music Festival held there. West's band underwent a change this year. The band members got rid of the old uniforms for new ones that are black with white stripes clown the side.

Besides participating in the Christmas aud and talent show here at West, our vocal music department was represented by 10 delegates at the All-State musical concert in Des Moines. A number of presentations, including the fall pops concert, a combined orchestra-chorus concert, and a spring concert, were held during the course of the year. Members of a Capella, Mixed Chorus, and Girl's Glee looked forward to their Chicago trip in April.

For some gym students though, it became a reality as they took a bus to Suburban bowling lanes during second semester. The whole idea of taking stu- dents out to bowl was brought up at one ofthe in-service days according to Mr. Harrington, department head. The teachers timed the trip out and back and the time it took to bowl one game. They found that they had enough time to trans port students out to Suburban. When the teachers get together this summer, they will look over how the bowling went, and then they will decide whether to adopt it or not. Not only will they discuss the bowling, but they will also look over surveys that were taken in January. Mr. Harrington said, We should look at the program every four to five years, and evalute it objectively. This is why we took the surveys, to get the students' opinions. Depending on what the results ofthe surveys are, the physical education will make the necessary changes if they are reasonable. .sf -W .., i .ji at L- .A ev: ..., . will ilk H' Q.

The club consists of 35 to 40 people who find Art Club a rewarding outlet for self-expression and also an opportunity to eicplore art beyond the classroom. Being an informal organization, Art Club offers a chance for students to meet casually. Meetings are held about every two weeks where group projects are planned and created. Art Club has had projects displayed for the public at Northpark during art fairs. The Art Club also sponsers money raising projects to help support itself. According to art instructor, Mr. Heggan, When one of West High's teams make it to a state tournament, the Art Club tries to incorporate a large project, like the printing of T-shirts, to raise money Above: Karmen Nerips gets right into the middle of things as she and other class members work on a paper mache project.

Virginia Lohmiller, who was a gym teacher at that time, decided that West should have its own lmprimus group. Since then lmprimus has been an active organization at West. Twenty-three members of lmprimus presented their third annual show in March. Each girllsj wrote her own routine for the show, and then in November they started to practice and work hard on the routines which were used in the show, according to Debbie. The girls practiced on Tuesday and Thursday nights after school and then on more nights as they approached the show. The show was titled Dream, and each dance that was performed had to do with dreams of any kind. This year's officers of lmprimus were Debbie Wilhelm, . president, Stacy Green, vice president, Cindy Thomson, lm P secretary, Lynn Pick, treasurer, and Terry Lemek, manager.

I always thought the Lettermen's club was more of just an honor society, commented senior Linda Schmandt. I really don't know, stated an anonymous junior. I think it's an organization for a bunch of worthy guys, said senior Bill Van Ness. The Lettermen's club is actually a group of male athletes who work together on various pro- jects. It really would be more appropriate to call it an athlete's organization, commented advisor Ted Minnick. It's very loose-knit, and we don't really have any requirements to be in the club. Members of the club agreed that it was a worthwhile organization and many things were ac- complished during the year. We bettered the boys' gym and locker fac- ilities, commented senior Scott Meisel. We earned money by selling candy. I thought it was worth being in it because it did a lot of good for the school, and it also helped boys' athletics, added lim Hobart. The improvements in the locker room included new carpeting, a stereo system, fencing around the different rooms, additional equipment, and an activities board. Sixty members sold candy to earn the money for the improvements throughout the year. Other projects for the lettermen included ushering at the basketball games and having open gym nights, where the club just had fun. 5 f T'T Right: President julie Gosma speaks to Pep Club.

According to William Edwards, librarian, The library's total book loss has been reduced by 70'Za. ln this system a librarian checks all WHS library books to be sure that none have been taken improperly. I don't like this system, commented Edwards, but it has to be done. This year the library received about 2000 new books between the beginning of school and April. These 2000 books were added to the other 20,000 volumes and 145 magazine subscriptions. Mr. Edwards hopes for further library expansion in the future.

The first and foremost duty of each and every junior class is to plan the Prom for the seniors. The juniors had the responsibilty of getting committees, chosing a theme, and get the rest of Prom organized. The juniors carried out tradition in fine style. Also, the president had the responsibility for calling all of the class meetings. The class advisor, Mr. Barnes, reflected that the officers were good as was the whole class.

The seniors particapat- ed in many of the events, and they provided good leadership in all of the activities that they had a hand in. This year's senior had many opportunities to pursue his or her inter- ests. Good experiences were provided for seniors planning on working or marrying after graduation, and college-bound graduates could seek a quality education. Opportunities at West improved during the school year of 1974-75 for the seniors, and the seniors hope that the opportunities for fu- ture students will become better. The senior class officers were Dan Feeney, president, Paul Hartmann, vice president, Sandy Cooper, secretary, and Steve Garner, treasurer. The class adviser was Mr. Ingram.

A work day in the life of one of these people is often more than a 9-to-5 type of job. Do you ever wonder why they work here at all? I love the people, smiles Kitchen Manager Carole Wulff. She worked at Prank I.. Smart Junior High School until the beginning of this year, when she was transferred to West. However, she does not regret coming here. Of the students she says simply, They're great! She feels that the students are her special reason for working in the Davenport school system. I still don't understand them, though, she smiles. It's hard to plan a menu when you never know whether they fthe studentsl are going to eat more of the featured food or more hamburgers. Sometimes they eat so many hamburgers that we run out of buns and they have to eat them on bread. Arthur Wunsch, a custodian at West, has been here since August of 1959, a month before classes began for the first time. What has made him stay for so long? I like to be with kids, he explains. He has two sons who have graduated from West. He has also been able to watch the decline of spirit since the school opened. Wunsch remembers, The kids here from 1960-67 were better behaved fthan the students here nowj. Most kids have respect for authority, though. I don't have many problems with them myself. The lack of enthusiastic pep auds bothers him. There are just a few bad apples in the barrel who spoil things for everyone. There are no pep auds now - not like they used to be. You've got to have rules in school, he says, and believes that the problem lies with the students who don't understand that. Does Wunsch feel like a part of West High? Yes, I certainly do. He has only two more years before he can retire, but he says, I'll be sorry to leave. I will really miss working here. Above: After a long summer the gym floor must be prepared to face students. Above Right: Helen Munson serves up one of the staples of a student's diet- a hamburger. Right: Members of the cafeteria staff await the next rush of hungry students. Center: The floor of each of the building's 122 rooms must be scrubbed and waxed before the opening of fall classes. Far Right: Margaret Vance polishes dust from the trophies in the main-hall display case. 192 Custodial Staff f Behind-the- I ',-- iznafws 'I - A ,a,a. ,X rrfff, .f 0 if.- jf, K ZTf2'T2fy f 'Hf-mmap by we K scenes workers speak out , fy fH ff 1 or X 'U gh ,ff l' vw , W, fi Y J HHH! -1'-fu V , fw7i2 ' ,.
