Class Officers - PRESIDENT An outstanding personality, a star in all sports, a friend to everyone, is our Class President, George Webb. His many likeable qualities have won him a place in the hearts of all. SECRETARY Doris Lund, our Secretary, is best known for her pleasing disposition. Having won an honor standing in the heart of the class, she graduates from West with the best wishes of all. VICE-PRESIDENT Versatile, popular, Norma Duckworth, our Vice-President, has found a high place among the students with her pleasing smile and winning ways. We are sure she will go far in her chosen career. TREASURER An able officer, a boy well liked in and out of his classroom, is our Treasurer, Richard Vivian. This lad has earned many warm friends during his days at West. CLASS ODE-1945 Our great Tofnorrow is Today Which soon the past will be; We face the hazy future now To seek our destiny. Warm friendships, books, long corridors, We leave all at last; Our tearful eyes envision now Mere phantoms of the past. With heavy hearts we leave thee. West But calm and unafraid, We face our fate urged forward now By Yesterdays which fade. The glories of Tomorrow come! We see their luring light; But grasp the torch and hold it high To guide our steps aright. BARBARA SYLVESTER, '45. 5

Classbook Board The 1945 WESTERDAYS staff, faced with even more war-time difficulties than those confronting students of the past few years, went to work early under the direction of Mr. Robert L. Smith, faculty advisor. Shortages of material, difficulty in obtaining camera film, and loss of seniors both to armed forces and to colleges—all became factors which might have discouraged a faint-hearted classbook board. An early start and an enthusiastic staff helped to insure what we hope is a representative WESTERDAYS. Officers of the staff were Natalie Berry and Betty Halbritter, editors; William Turner and Delight Wolfe, managing editors; Anna Brophy and Shirley Seagal, art editors; Florence Peppes, secretary. Other members of the staff were divided into editorial, business and technical groups. Mr. Dascombe, our principal, gave untiringly of his cooperative efforts; Miss Maloney and Miss Campbell of the art department guided us through some trying moments, Mr. Gregory, head of the English department. Miss Casey, secretarial head, and Mr. Varieur, the school's business manager, also gave considerable assistance. Students not included in the original staff who were quick to answer an app eal for aid in preparing special art work for WESTERDAYS included Sanja Adams, Lewis Prescott, Donald Poirier and Daniel Ward, all members of the Senior Class. Here. Seniors, is your WESTERDAYS of 1945. May you treasure it for years to come. 7
