Springtime. A time when flowers bloom and trees turn green. A time when students start looking forward to their summer vacation. But before summer vacation finally rolled around, many activities took place. The varsity baseball team ' s attempt to take the conference championship was finally halted in their final game and they ended their season in a tie for second place with the East Leyden Eagles. While other sports teams fought to be at the top of their division, they all finished their season respectably. Other activities also were also active this spring. Two excellent productions were put on by the drama and music departments. The first outdoor play was produced in the school ' s inner court, Shake- speare ' s Twelfth Night. Hello, Dolly, the musical was again a success, along with the annual outdoor concert. You Make Me Feel Brand New was the theme of the prom. Students danced all night to the music provided by Cook County Express. The final scene of the spring was graduation. Mixed with tears and emotions, the Class of 1978 filed out for the last time as students of West Leyden. A lot more things happen in the spring than just flowers blooming and the sun shining. With all of these things happening, it ' s no wonder that springtime quickly passes and sum- mer vacation begins. Blooming trees and the return of bikes to the front of the school all signal the return of spring at West Leyden. Students find themselves looking forward to summer.
