EACH CONTRIBUTESA HIS PART AT WEST EVERYONE IS IMPORTANT Within West High's walls exists a world humming with activity, a world of last-minute races with the bell, brows furrowed with thought, and heart-pounding locker meetings - one of spine-tingling moments of singing the school song and moments of frenzied en- thusiasm. The Warriors' world is one of drama and excitement, of fun and study, but, above all else, it is a world of cooperation. An individual can not live twenty-four hours without being influenced by many, when one achieves success, he can not accept full credit. Distinction is won through working together. lt is no different at West High. Though the majority of honors are claimed by juniors and seniors, the sophomores are pre- paring for the coming years. Every group needs people willing to accept some extra respon- sibilities, but these leaders, in turn, need help- ers. Athletic events would have little color were it not for the cheerleaders and enthusi- asts, the zest for giving operettas and school plays would be lost were it not for the com- mittees, stage crews, and audiences. Some Warriors are musically inclined, and some are off-key experts. Some are studious, and some think more of fun. Some are star athletes, and some are star bench-warmers. But each contributes a vital part to West's happy spirit. At West everyone is important.
