THE 1943 CLASS BOOK The classbook board this year has had to face many problems connected with pro- duction of this book. Shortages of critical war materials, especially in the lack of photographic film; loss of many of our male students to colleges and to the armed serv- ices; an early graduation; manpower shortages facing many of the features necessary in assembling this book. Through the co-operation of our prin- cipal, Mr. Dascombe, and under the capa- ble direction of our adviser, Mr. Robert L. Smith, of the faculty, and with the help of heads of the several departments in the school, we have tried to publish a book worthy of the best traditions at West High. Charles Curtis and Florence Sullivan have acted as editors-in-chief; Arthur Bus- sey and Marion Lund have filled the posi- tion of managing editors; Ida Jowett and Otilia Perry have served as business man- agers; John Percevecz and Frances Mori- arty have supervised the art editing. All other members of the staff have been willing and able to promote the cause of the classbook and have completed their assignments satisfactorily. Our particular thanks must go to Miss Casey, head of the secretarial department for her patience in helping our typists with their very important work; to Miss Maloney, head of the are department, for her help- ful suggestions; to Ray Houghton, a mem- ber of the Junior Class, for his very valu- able and timely assistance in photography; to Mr. Gregory, head of the English De- partment; and to the many teachers who co-operated with our work. We present this 1943 Classbook with the feeling that we have tried our best and with the hope that our efforts will be looked upon kindly by the graduates. 6 —
