Her shining hallways, her unscarred desks and equipment deny the fact that more than 5,000 students have passed in het halls and byways and paused to learn. In four short years, west High has grown from an anonymous pile of stone and tile into a living, vibrant institution of learning with high ideals and price- less traditions. Her way of life has been molded with infinite care and knowledge to adjust to the varied edu- cational needs and powerful urge to succeed of each of her students. It is this adjustment that we call the West Way. In this book we shall attempt to show what each department, each activity, and all members of the school personnel are contributing to this new and better way of life and learning.

When the first student was enrolled and the first teacher hired, he was there with wise counsel and guidance. He is here today, and it is to him, Dr. Floyd Farmer, our beloved Principal and friend, we dedicate this book. For his ability to put us straight in times of crisis, for his helping hand when we needed help, but most of all, for his ever ready smile of friendly encouragement, we thank him. -41 We Introduce A little joke is being enjoyed by lk. Floyd Farmer, Mx. Wilbur Dorsey, Mr. Harold Ftoning, and Mr. james Dye. The advance planning, operation, and smooth functioning of West High's activities, both curricular and extra- curricular, depend upon the work of these four leaders. They extend a helping hand as we face today's pro- blems, and give encouragement and inspiration in making our plans for the future. MR. WILBUR C. DORSEY MR. HAROLD FRONING Co-ordinator of Activities Assistant Principal .5... The Administration DR. FLOYD FARMER Principal MR. JAMES DYE Vic e-Prine ipal The demendous job of making all the depart- ments and phases of West's educational plan fall into place rests on the shoqlders of Dr. Floyd F armer, Principal. He keeps things running smoothly with fairness and friend- liness which has endeared him to all of us. Sharing the burden of adminisiration is Mr. James Dye, Vice-Principal. ..6..

These courses give each individual a chance to express his own ideas and to learn pre-professional techniques and prac- trees. Appreciation of the work of other artists and craftsmen of the past and present give a basis for future enjoyment and better consumer discrimination. 1 CARL BARNHART KENNETH BEALL CHARLES BISH GLENN BLAKEMORE OWEN BRIDGWATER Science Social Studies Department Head Study Hall Speech Industrial Ang English 1 -71 With Wisdom BERT BRODDLE TOM CAGLE LaVON CLARK ROBERT ESTILL MARION FAIRES English Drivers' Education Business Education Social Studies Business Education Technical skills are developed in the Business Education department by courses in typewriting, shorthand, and book- keeping.

Some pupils study advanc- ed mathematics in high school in order to lay a sound founda- tion for the college mathematics required by professional and scientific training. Pupils examine the law of cause and effect, learn to know the consequences of their assumptions, and whether or not they have developed a logical proof. They are encouraged to apply the principles of logic to everyday living. A problem is being explained to Mrs. Stella Hamilton's Algebra Ill class by james Clark, senior. 112.- The Paths of Learning Mr. Howard Miller conducts the orchestra through a difficult num- ber. The purpose of the Music Department is to fit music into the ual expression, and to develop a greater appreciation through fine arts for more effective community living is the goal of this department.

They develop the skills of sports, dance, and recreational act- ivity that will be used in hobbies and leisure time activities, making life more interesting and enioyable. In group activities, students learn to work and play together, and through the study of the care of the physical person, the girls learn to appreciate good health and better ways to pre- serve it.

SCHIERLING Science Drivers' Education English Through the study of world history, American history, modern world problems, and social problems, the student gains a know- ledge and appreciation of his political, social, cultural, and economic heritage. He also gains a better understanding of the world in which he lives and his relationship to it. He is a better citizen because he knows more about his com- munity on a local, state, and national level. He has developed skills in obtaining information, judgment in determining its re- liability, and the ability to think for himself.

About the busiest people around the school are the counselors, who advise and help students with their pro- blems. Among the questions they are concerned with are scheduling, scholarship, personal and school pro- blems, college entrance, job placement, and even home and family difficulties. The librarians are on hand at all times to help us find books and information. They keep the library orderly and quiet, and make it a fine place to do our studying. The nurse-'s work is as varied as are our ailments. We go to her with a scratch or a high fever, and she fur- nishes a bandage, calls our parents or the doctor, as the problem demands. She advises us on questions of vision, hearing, physical difficulties, need for medical care, and all questions involving our well-being.

Alma Mater To you our West High, We owe all our devotion, Our pride and our happiness too. All the friends we have known, And the memories that linger, Will always remain dear and true. The day soon will come When we'll make our departure, The skies may not always be blue. Our tasks will be lighter, Our future much brighter, And West High, we owe it to you.
