A WORD T0 THE FACULTY The faculty is one of the most important parts of our school, for the faculty members are the ones who guide the students in their formative years. Not only in the classroom do we feel their influence, but also in our extra-curricular activities. Teachers are the most influential people in our lives, as they inspire in us our thoughts, our ideals, and our ambitions. Seldom do the students realize the long hours spent by the faculty in planning our projects. The students of today are indeed the leaders of tomorrow, and whatever success West High graduates may achieve in the future will be due, in large part, to the unselfish devotion of our faculty members. So it is at this time that the i957-58 Westerner Staff would like to express the appreciation of the entire stu- dent body to the faculty members for their unceasing service to us.

Mr. R. E. C. Love, Principal. Mr. Love has been the principal of West High School for the seven years of its existence. With the faculty he develops a fuller and more satisfactory curriculum to the advantage of the students. Mr. Love has been more to the student body than a dis- ciplinarian. His high standards have been a guiding influence to the students, and his sympathetic under- standing of their viewpoints and problems has made him greatly respected. Changing schedules to meet the needs of stu- dents, being sure that the business of the school is properly transacted, and attending all school func- tions are but a few of Mr. Love's many duties. est. N . MR. LOVE Above: Mr. Love uses the phone, which is a necessity in his work, to discuss business. Left: Mr. Love counsels Marilyn Frost, David Leeds, and Suz- anne Bell in one of the various school projects.
