E, the Class Book Board. feeling a great re- sponsibility in publishing our schools Hrst Senior Class volume, have made what we be- lieve is an honest effort to present a hook of which West High students may be proud for many years to come. Our problems have in many ways been unique but our sources of help and gtlidance have been nu- merous and valuable. If we have succeeded in setting a good example, in pointing the way to the future, in portraying kvIiS'l'liRD.XYS as they really are. in showing the proper appreciation of our great privilege, and in giving a true account of our stewardship, then we may take some pride in our success. But none of us is likely to overlook the work of the many individuals outside of our group, the advice and the interest of those who showed us the way. 'l'o Robert L. Smith, our faculty adviser, whose sound judgment and careful guidance made possible the pub- liration of this book, we extend our sincere apprecia- tion. To Mr. Walter Van Dale, our class photographer, whose patience and artistry combined to assure the success of one of the most important features of Wrist'- rkntvs we express our deepest gratitude. 'l'o the technical advice and notable suggestions of Mr. George Morris and the Advertisers Engraving Co. we attribute the solution of some of our problems in putting before our classmates and teachers a book rep- resentative of our school. To the Oxford Press and its representative, Mr. Ed- ward Flanagan, we are indebted for keen interest and close co-operation in tnany phases of this work. Many titnes in the course of prodttction we have had inestimable assistance freely offered to us by the prin- cipal and teachers of our school. YVe wish to cite es- pecially at this time the keen interest and considera- tion of' the following: Chester M. Dascombe, our prin- cipal: Fred KI. Gregory, head of the English depart- ment: Miss Margaret Casey, head of the Typewriting department: Frank E. Greene, faculty adviser of the Il'z'st1'rm'r: Earle A. Phillips, adviser of the Photography Club: Francis il. Varieur, head of the Commercial de- partment: Miss Irene D. Carlin, Senior Class Adviserg Miss Marie A. Maloney, head of the Art department: Miss Anne F. Burns. Secretary to the Principal, and Miss Nellie M. Donovan, adviser of the Redjaeket, Paw- tucket East High School. If we have given to the future students of XVest High the opportunity to carry on with the benefit of our experience. we leaye satisfied with the results of an undertaking that we assumed willingly and anxious- ly. We close with sincere wishes for the sttccess of the XVliS'I'lCRD-XYS to come. Marjorie' Brooker, C0-Editor
