As you might guess, Roberto is quite an expert at the mambo, charleston, samba, and almost any hot dance you can name. Although he likes all kinds of music, Roberto especially likes to sing. Hot-dogs are Roberto's favorite American food. He says that the sports are pretty much the same in Cuba and America. Ping-pong is his specialty, but he also enjoys swimming, tennis, and volley ball. Roberto is going to be with us for his junior and senior years too, so we have plenty ot time to get better acquainted with him. EDUORD MARTIN Eduord, a senior at West this year, is an exchange student from France. He is rather reserved at first, but when you get to know him, you find he has quite a sense oi humor. Like most students from other countries, Edourd likes ham- burgers and hot dogs. What does he think of tootball? Well, it's not as exciting as soccer. I like soccer better. When telling us in assembly about education in France, Eduord mentioned the differences in our physical education classes as compared with those in France. Not having all the equipment We have, they just go outside and run tor an hour. Eduord also played some French songs on the accordion for us. The West High students hope that Eduord has liked school in America as much as We have enjoyed him this year. 4 1 K K I .arfi ! . Y,,E I Klli! ff ,nh V' x5 .

Miss Reeder, Mr. Hamilton, and Mr. Shelton have contributed much time and patience for the benefit of West's music department. Without their guidance and helpful teaching, West could never have had and appreciated the fine musical program that We have now. Appreciation of music in its various fields as well as the playing of instruments is taught. We have completed a Very successful year and have taken great strides in music accomplishment.

Among their many other activities, they sponsored the election of the Homecoming Queen. STUDENT REPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY The Student Representative Assembly, known around West as the SRA, is the most valuable school organization. Through this assembly the students are able to ex- press their views concerning the school government. One representative and one alternate are elected from each of the home groups. They meet with the SRA advisen Miss Evans, on the third Friday in every month. This year the SRA sponsored several mixers and the election of the Homecom- ing Queen. The members took part in as- sembly programs and they gave a party for a local orphanage. An amendment to their constitution was passed which provided that the President be elected in the Spring of his Iunior year by the student body instead of being elected in the Fall by the SHA members only. The purpose of this organization is to serve the school in any Way possible, to create and maintain a better spirit of co- operation between the faculty and student body, to represent the students in matters concerning the school, to help build and foster a good school spirit, and to support all school activities.

The staff of the l955 Westerner has tried to picture every phase of the l954-55 school life in this annual. Plans for the publication of the yearbook were discussed and finally decided upon by the staff members under the leadership of Mr. Montgomery, the Westerner adviser. Each member of the staff Worked hard to make this year's Westerner one to be remembered. Carolyn Faulkner, as editor-in-chief, guided the annual from the start to the finish. When this was finally accomplished in February, there was nothing to do but Wait and see how the finished product of so long a period of effort would be received. The only thing left to do was to decide who would be best to lead the staff of the next Westerner. 34 -1:,: Vkr, NI gi figs -1. . ? TT., i 5'-.

West 7, Young 6 Coupling a tough, alert defense with an effective running game, the West High Rebels remained unbeaten with a hard fought 7-6 Victory over the Young High Yellow Iackets. Ready Cash gathered in a Young punt on the Yellow Iacket 42 and raced to the six. Two plays later, Cash cracked the line for the score. Gene Overholt kicked the important extra point.

West kicked off and after the ball had been exchanged several times, Ray Brann sloshed through to block a Maryville punt. The ball bounced out of the end zone to give the Rebels 2 points. Later in the third quarter, Ready Cash received the ball and cut quickly to his right and raced 45 yards for the touchdown. Gene Overholt kicked the extra point to conclude the scoring.

Several players from both teams were forced to leave the game because of injuries. The win gave the Rebels a 8-l record-its most successful in its history.

West held four downs inside of its 10, and Hodge banged for l2 yards. But that was the best West could muster. Overholt, whose punting was exceptional, kicked out. After another exchange of downs, Lee scored, but Over- holt blocked the extra point. The second half, Lee showed its power and scored twice with one extra point. Lee simply had too much power for the injured Rebels. Baggett, playing superbly on defense, Brann, Anderson, Shafer, and Houghton led the defense, while Hodge, Cash, Overholt, and Bowman performed well on offense. x ' 3 nv 2 x ,ff .gi ,wi W 5 a- f w if x - ,gQ,. f if f ' T31 f Ng M 7 .

Although West lost this game 52-57, they revenged their loss at Fulton 62-61. i The Rebel cagers completed a wonder- ful season by winning 20 games and losing only 5. Starting off with a loss to Karns, our basketteers bounced back to win seven straight and set a school record for victories in a row. One highlight of the season was defeating Bradley County on their home court, their first loss there in three' and one half years. Tremendous credit must be given to Coach Bill Wright for his remarkable job of building a top-flight team with only one regular returning from last year's squad. The Rebels were led by Captain Charlie Scott, at center, with a l5.0 average, for- wards Don Preston and Bob Overholt with twin 8.8 averages, and guards Butch Lowery and Morton Gardner with l3.3 and 9.3 averages respectively. The powerful bench, which assumed a great part in every victory, consisted of Dick Laurence, Randy Ayres, Bay Brann, David lohnston, lim Hodge, Bo Shafer, and Tom Anderson. Captain Scott set a new individual scor- ing mark for one season at West with 361 points breaking Dewey Thomas' mark of 356.

West lost out in the first game of the B tournament by a close score. Although the Rebel Bees won only nine, they showed vast improvement toward Team the last part of the season.

The Baseball Team BobJMcMahan captoined this year's baseball team. Q, wi. wi - it ies ,qt +4-we ii , gf 1 ,YI it W M dfylg 2 i 1 gi .. ..mf, With victories over no schools except Farragut, the l954 baseball team came through the season with high hopes for a better record in l955. This was the first time since l952 that the nine had gotten together, and although the season opened with much optimism, somehow the boys couldn't get into the winning form. Only two lettermen, Albert King and Clure Nelson, returned to the team last spring and most of the fellows lacked experi- ence. Bill Wright, our able coach, worked hard to whip into shape a winning aggre- gation. Although the games were spirited contests, the West High Flag did not fly high in the playing of this favorite American sport. Despite the poor record, the team proved to all about that it was game to the last man time after time, the close scores proving the spirit of the nine which says, hold on. 52' 90 N ' ' ...,. -' .gxiekieitisw 7 W B fo m0 er Q ll Co, ' ! x lfl arf .EVA i Above: Pitchers: Dallas Blair, limmy Wilburn, Paul Cromwell, Karl Schultz, Charlie Kirby Buddy Addicks, Francis Cain. l YL, , D J W ', . ,f Ms.: ' Q il Civ V Q Af' Above: Outfielders: Chris House, lim McCallum, Doug Gray.
