The 'West Community' has been a help in our endeavor through their moral and financial support. I hope that we, the people of West Montgomery, will al- ways strive for the highest goals and continue to make 'West the Best.' Mr. james H. Donnell, lr. Under the direction of Principal james H. Donnell, West has estab- lished a reputation as being a school unsurpassed in all areas. Fine administration, students, teachers, and attitudes have led to unexcelled scholastic, extracurricu- lar, and sports programs. 18fAdministration Assistant Principal Bruce Morton has many responsibilities. Directing the bus drivers and guiding the Stu- dent Council to a successful year keeps him busy. No office is complete without a secretarial staff. Mrs. Betty Oliver and Miss Renee Thompson perform their jobs accurately and thoroughly. 'N-J 58 J il A 1 . - r:1 M. gf g - Mix. . .

To be aware of occurrences, they make numerous visits to the schools and respond to needs of students, par- ents, and staff members. lt is a sincere pleasure for me to be a member of a Profes- sional Team providing learn- ing experiences for students who are so valuably needed to cope with society and pre- paring students to continue their-formal education or to place them in a worthwhile job.

The library provides us with newspapers, periodicals, audio- visual equipment, and books. In driver education, we are taught the skills and laws of the highways. nn! Materials available in the library include over 8000 books, 805 records and tapes, 2315 filmstrips, 59 magazine subscriptions, 5 newspapers, 65 film loops, 357 microfilms and microfiche, 1731 slides, 70 art reproductions, 7 vid- eotapes, and 618 study prints.

The English Department teaches us the basics of the Ian- guage, vocabulary, reading skills, and writing techniques. Vocabulary workbooks, films, records, and texts are used in the classes for a better understanding of our literature and language. English teachers accept the primary responsibility for de- veloping a student's compe- tence in reading, for teaching the essential skills for his pre- paring interesting, clear, and coherent compositions, and for helping him to become an effective speaker and lis- tener.

Latin students are offered Latin I, II, and III, and students can enjoy French on all four levels. Learning foreign languages can be fun. Verb races, songs, and cook- ing meals break the monotony of everyday classes. Foreign languages are im- portant because they afford us the opportunity to immerse ourselves in another man's culture. Only through others can one know and appreciate his place in the vvorId's great scheme.

More important is to find the answers to the vast understanding of man and his environment. To discover without seeking is difficult and rare, but if one seeks, it is frequent and easy, if, however, one does not know how to seek, discovery is impossible. Science does not offer solutions to all prob- lems, but its method can be applied to all situations.

An excellent staff forwards students ways of reasoning out problems and interests some stu- dents in a career involving math. ffWhether one must complete hisfher income tax return, solve an equation, compute or perform a geometric proof, there is a mathematics course at West to instruct you in the correct method.

Mathematicsfw Studying such topics as politics, foreign affairs, religion, and U.S. history taught us to understand other continents in addition to North America. Examining and un- derstanding the differences in dis- tinctive areas of history help us ap- preciate other ways of life. Social studies is more than just history. lt is important to have a varied program that will cover many interests. A student begins with the re- quired United States history as a freshman and can end with an elective, world histo- ry, as a senior.

Weaving and making socks are two skills that the textile students learn. The bricklaying classes ac- complish masonry jobs. Distributive education involves students learn- ing through work experience. I feel very good about teach- ing where I see CHALLENGE, INVOLVEMENT, and SATIS- FACTION. Learning comes easy for some, while for others it is a slovv, frustrating process. I am involved in the educational process which promotes the positive qual- ities of the individual and makes me feel good about teaching.

Agriculture taught us about natu- ral resources and the striving far- mers in our community. Industrial arts students are given an opportunity to develop craftsmanship and express their creativity. More emphasis should be placed on a student's total education. Students get the opportunity to use and de- velop their total skills in voca- tional agriculture. Whether it is using public speaking, leadership, shop skills, or per- sonal accomplishments, all of these lead to individual maturity.

Vocational f 31 Business teachers introduced us to the mechanics of the office by providing many business courses. Office-like situations and business fundamentals are useful to all stu- dents. While introducing us to our roles as men and women, home econom- ics taught the fundamentals of housekeeping, child care, and per- sonal grooming. Home economics provides plenty of variety - everyone has a chance to do their own thing in an area of achieve- ment for them. We hope every student leaves home ec. with increased self- confidence in themselves and their fellow classmates. Miss Ann Almond Irx .f f I Above, left to right: Miss Ann Al- mond, Home Ec.

The sounds of instruments drifted from the band room. The chorus reached our hearts when they sang. Art, band, and chorus, the ABC of West, brought different aspects of student life to each of us. The Music Department is a channel through which the in- terested student may attain a high degree of proficiency in self expression. Fundamentals and practice are combined to attain a quality organization, an organization to reflect community pride and school spirit.

Qgwmf Through various extracurricular activities, West allows students to create and expand their individual talents, personalities, and friendships. For four years we share ourselves in elections, clubs, and at the prom. Then finally vve share the unique experience ofgraduating and saying goodbye. Crab a piece of the action! assemble Freshmen, soph- omores, and juniors marched into the gym to the music of Hail to the War- riors played by the band. OK, up on your feet for the se- niors, was always announced by Mr. Donnell. Cheerleaders led us in displaying our school spirit at pep rallies. There was usually a contest be- tween classes to de- termine who was loudest. We all did our best to inspire victory. During the annual talent show spon- sored by the Student Council, teachers were seen in a differ- ent light. Hidden abilities in music, dance, and comedy were made public. 38 tf' ff , ,. ab if Y-3 XE- If Let yourself go! assemble W 2, s w. , , ,, K , fs v, sv 1 , X .

Some students were so en- thusiastic they could not contain them- selves and jumped onto the floor danc- ing. Lee Faulkner dem- onstrated the fine art of pantomine through his skits, and students' imagina- tions were used to their maximum. Then at Christmas, Santa made us all forget that we were dignified high school students. While scrambling for the candy he threw, vis- ions of a two-week vacation danced in our heads. From the welcom- ing assembly in Au- gust to Awards Day in May, regardless of the type of enter- tainment, we were together as one, en- joying and expres- sing ourselves in in- dividual ways. 39 As Foreign Lan- guage Week ap- proached, the Latin and French Clubs were preparing their annual events and displays as usual. However, in 1977 a new foreign lan- guage hit West and the Spanish Club also prepared for the exciting week. Each club exhibited projects about its foreign land in the library, and teachers were stuffed again with foods from all three clubs. A Latin toga was given away and French and Spanish Club mem- bers challenged stu- dents with tongue- twisters. 40 Experience foreign languages. parlezidicite If' .e.Q . V in . ' 4 'wi 'f A if JW.

Lat- in club members crowned the winner of the CLEQPATRA LOOK-ALIKE contest and performed the skit FARRAH FAW- CETT QF ROME. Winner of the jelly bean contest was recognized by the French Club and they concluded For- eign Language Week with the skit LA GGNG SHOW. 41 Lost In The City dramatize The Drama and Music Departments of West merged their talent and time to present LOST IN THE CITY. Talented, hard-working stu- dents sacrificed many hours and days of practice before the final performance. Lighting, stage props, costumes, and memorized lines were all important for a success. Play di- rectors, Mr. john Cul- lers and Mr. Ed Wil- liams, encouraged them always for a magnificent perfor- mance. The appreciative audience enthusias- tically cheered the heroine and hissed and booed the villain in this old fashioned melodrama. 42 'Sf V 'FSB-frX f W Un li!

Much to our delight, everyone was given a candy bar by two gener- ous spirits, Mr. Donnell and Mr. Morton. The kind thought was greatly appreciated. Although we longed for a white vacation, our dreams were not fulfilled. However, even warm weather could not put a damper on our spirits. january second we re- turned to a regular schedule with New Year's resolutions fresh in our minds. 43 When Will I See You Again? boogie Boxes of chocolate candy became famil- iar sights and bar- becue plates were sold to everyone possible. lt was soon apparent that prepar- ing for a prom was no easy task. Tired bones and weary bodies drag- ged out of the gym on Friday night. Heads turned one last time to admire the accomplish- ments. Saturday rushed past as tuxedos were picked up, corsages pur- chased, and last min- ute preparations vvere made. The an- ticipated night had finally arrived. 44 wg Qiniuvvld if --....E?f-lxfl cl as MN X M- Q S gt Rose - entwined picket fences lined the gym wall and shining stars hung from a crepe paper sky. Dancers boo- gied to the music of Free Spirit as appetizers were served by waiters and waitresses. Candles continued to burn, our time be- came shorter, and plans for the rest of the night were made. The once sparkling gym was littered with the remains of a night that would al- ways linger in the minds of everyone present. 45 Why not the best? elect Democracy re- mains an important element in our school. An entire week was filled with posters, buttons, and even free bubble- gum. Campaign speeches were writ- ten and practiced for the assembly pro- gram to publicize candidates. Each presented his or her own political platform. Voting was a new experience for some, but the power to choose leaders was taken seriously by most. Fingers were crossed as the results were announced. The elections of 1977 were overg the newly elected offic- ers prepared to lead us through the school year 1977- 1978. 46 ls this my beginning? graduate Our twelfth year was special . . . something we had dreamed of for many years. The end of our high school days was near, and we felt both sad and happy. In our caps and gowns, we practiced marching into the gym and receiving our diplomas, The final night ap- proached, and we reminisced about the days that were. As we walked a- cross the stage for the last time, some wanted to shout for joy, others fought to hold back tears, and those remaining prayed that they would not be the one to fall down the stairs. Beginning a new life brings fear and joy, but we cannot be seniors forever. 47 Change the way the world sees you! glimpse Classes-wearer? That includes many of us these days. The main reason we wear glasses is no longer just because they are prescribed, but also because they are fashionable. The frames are large and bold with splashes of unique colors. Some lenses even change dramatically from dark to light as the wearer moves from outdoors to indoors. Chic, molded frames of crystal-clear plas- tic along with blue or pink tinted lenses make glasses a fash- ion accessory in to- day's world. 48 'N-. Have it your way! relax .. M.. . l Q Salma F? A 44k A break away from the usual cafeteria routine was always near when the aroma of grilled hamburgers crept into the halls of West. Sundrop soda pop made its debut with students while they munched on apples and potato chips in the quad- rangle. Extended lunches on cookout days al- lowed us to soak up the rays and chatter a little longer until the bell summoned us back to class. 49 Discover your Creative talent. culture An impressive and unique collection of arts and crafts began invading the multi- purpose room and Chorus room of West. Months of hard work were put into the creations and talent to be dis- played and Consi- dered for prizes dur- ing the annual presentation of The Festival of the Arts. Friday, April 1, 1977, the gymna- sium doors of West opened up for Montgomery Coun- ty's Ovvn Great Tal- ent.

For three spring days and nights there was an exhibition of paint- ings, pottery, photog- raphy, sculpture, needlework, and crafts by the artists and craftsmen of Montgomery Coun- ty. The delicate and imaginative work of each person was a prize in itself for all who were privileged to see the exhibits. Viewers and exhibitors alike left their displays to plan for next year's Festi- val of the Arts. 51 CLASS OF 78 Five minutes early to lunch. . .Macbeth. . .

During the year we visited several schools to observe different methods of teaching. As a money-making project we raffled off a digital clock radio. Under the leadership of President Cathy Heyer and advisers, Mrs. Louise Dorsett and Mrs. Ruby Sanders, we gained experi- ence and knowledge for teaching in the future. We ended the year with our annual pic- nic. IOURNALISM Improving our skills in writing, art, pho- tography, and layout teachniques, we worked to make our publications the best. Under the supervision of Miss Hilda Lee, we settled dovvn to the task of cropping pictures, dreaming up headlines, and writ- ing copy. Our editors, Tommie Greene and Anita Richardson, were responsible each week as we were constantly searching for school news for our MONTGOMERY HERALD column. SMOKE SIGNAL editors, Nicky McCall and Lois Morton, guided us through the task of publishing eight SMOKE SIGNALS. Row I: Tommie Greene and Anita Richardson, MONTGOMERY HERALD co-editors.

ROBIN FAGG TOP West has brought me good times, bad times, and hours of studying. I can save many memo- ries of West for sunny days and rainy days. These memories will never be forgotten. TOMMIE GREENE West has been an important part of my life these past four years. I've learned to make impor- tant decisions, to cry, and to laugh. I've learned the impor- tance of studying and preparing myself for the future. My stay at West has prepared me for the fu- ture I face. NICKY MCCALL 'Making the grade' can stand for more than making A's on a re- port card. lt's much more impor- tant to 'make the grade' with peo- ple. To be a success, you should laugh often, love much, and care. My friends have taught me how to care, I shall always love them for being there. IEANNIE REYNOLDS I feel very privileged that I have been able to attend a school like West. The opportunities for achievement are so numerous and varied. If I had one regret, it would be that I didn't realize the importance of applying myself soon enough. It matters so much later. ROBIN THOMPSON 138 if The faculty, students, and especially my friends have re- warded me with criticisms, com- pliments, and conversations that I hope will prove to make me a bet- ter person. Making friends has been easy. I only wish that I could have known every person at West. Everyone should try his best, be friendly, and partici- pate. TE I have found one must strive constantly and put forth his best in making his dreams a reality. It is important, also, to achieve goals without ignoring the dreams of others. West is a community where people can work together to achieve these goals. BECKY GREENE At West I have learned many valuable things that are essential to a person if he is to lead a suc- cessful life. Most of all I have learned that if you really want, with all your heart, to achieve a certain goal then nothing in the world can keep you from reach- ing it. IEFF HUDSON Each person's inevitable end is death. If, in the brief span of time we spend on earth, we can do one thing to benefit mankind we will be exceeding our re- quirements. Whether our con- tribution is a geodesic dome or a smile on a rainy day, we can con- tribute. Let us hope that 'our yes- terdays have tnotl lighted fools the way to dusty deathf LOIS MORTON Being a part of West will hold many memories for me in my years ahead. It's here that I began to face responsibility and matur- ity. The friendships that have grown out of these past four years will be what I will cherish most in the future. ANITA RICHARDSON Your high school years are only temporary, just like almost everything else. So through these past few years I've learned to take advantage of every second and get involved in as much as I could. Time may evaporate and years may be temporary, but my memories of West will be perma- nent. SANDY WINN 139 HO ORS C 1f 19' ,... 140 if ,Z I '1 . .

For the second straight year we were defeated in the first playoff game. This year the loss of 14-12 was to Central Davidson, a much improved team from the beginning of the year. We finished with a 10-1 record and a very proud school. Coach james Garmon was named Coach of the Year by his fel- low coaches for a remarkable third straight year. Named to the All-Conference team were Brent and Kent Kincaid, Ray Charles Young, jeff Steele, Greg Gooch, Bennie Baldwin, james Greene, and Mitchell French. J Being in the State 2-A playoffs the last two years put the pressure on us again to keep the tradition going. After losing our CTC Back of the Year and several other key players this seemed to be a hard task. Regardless of the odds, we were pre-season picks to win the confer- ence. For the first time ever in West Montgomery history, we finished the season 10-0 and captured our third straight Central Tarheel Conference championship. Following our first three weeks of grueling practice we played our scrimmage game against Asheboro. For the first time in history we out- scored them. Then, after recovering from a hard hitting intersquad game, we prepared to take revenge from a last year 7-19 loss to Central Davidson. When the game ended, our revenge was com- plete with a 33-7 win over Central Davidson. Our hopes for an undefeated sea- son were threatened by a close 13-10 score over West Stanly. We shut out our next three oppo- nents respectively. Our first came against Southern Guilford with a score of 28-0. Then came a crushing 72-0 score over Stoneville, a newcomer in the conference. Our Homecoming game ended in a 20-0 win over Northwood. With our hopes perhaps too high, we traveled to Chatham Central to squeak by them 14-7 with a last mi- nute touchdown pass. Next, we handed North Moore a 37-0 loss making that our fourth and last shut-out of the year. We overcame a 13-6 third quarter deficit and scored twice in the final quarter to defeat tenth ranked in the state jordan Matthews 19-13 in what was highlighted as the conference game of the year. Though assured of at least a tie ifwe won only one out of the last two games, we disregarded this to go on and defeat both Union Pines and county rival East Montgomery with scores of 28-7 and 34-6. 149 i v football 150 fvfzl fiz, fre' f 5- f Y L 7 j r '? f ff' 1.

We sweated through 900+ temperatures trying to condition our bodies for the upcoming season. We knew we had a lot of potential, but it would have to be brought out in the form of good play if we were to overcome jordan-Matthews, the '76 conference champions. Our hard work throughout the seemingly end- less practices was rewarded in the end as we finished the season undefeated in the conference with an overall record of 9-1. We started out the season with a 20-O win over Central Davidson. Our only defeat of the season came in the second game when we suffered a 24-6 loss to West Stanly. During the course of the season we gained re- venge on the jordan-Matthews jets who had soundly defeated us 34-6 in the '76 season. ln the final game ofthe season we defeated East Montgomery, our county rival, by a score of 28-O. At the end of the season when the points were counted we had outscored our opponents by a very impressive mar- gin of 268-64. For the fourth time in the last six years the Warrior j.v.'s, under the direction of Coach jerry Daniel, had captured the conference title. West, indeed, remained the team to beat in the Central Tarheel Conference. 151 basketball hi i varsity basketball 4 .. M , ..-M .ab N, .

'G Q 1-4 Losing all five starters from last year's squad seemed an impossible situation to get used to. The outlook of this season seemed a definite rebuild- ing year with stiff competition throughout the conference. Head Coach jim Gane, during his third year at West, worked for another winning season. We lost five out of our first six games with the only victory being over our football enemy, Central Davidson. Despite an overtime loss to West Stanly and a O-1 record in the conference, we regrouped again to crush Central Davidson 54-37. Then vve lost a disappointing 59-80 decision to our county rival, East Montgomery. The rest of the season was marked by exciting finishes in almost every game. We lost another overtime to West Stanly and one to North Moore. At press time, our record stood at 5-13 with tvvo games remaining. 1.

De- ite all this, Head Coach Bobbie to spark the team. The girls' season, just like the boys', looked like a critical rebuilding year. Substituting freely and shuffling her players in and out Coach Miles was maturing this young ball club into a fu ture threat. At press time our record stood at 4 ns and 14 losses. Our first win of wi the season came against Central Davidson. A three-game losing streak brought nsecutive heartbreaking losses of o, one, and three points. The highlight of the season was a 37-26 win o Montgomery. 1.

Having won our first two games of the season, our first loss came at the hands of the Northwood Chargers. We quickly recovered from this loss as we went on to win four out of our next five games. Under the direction of Coach james Garmon, we finished third in the con- ference. Our overall record was 9-5 with an impressive 8-4 record in con- ference play. 1.

Of the five returning members from last year's squad, only one had actual playing experience. During the course of the season this lack of experience proved to be a handicap as we placed fifth in the conference with a 4-8 record and a 4-10 record overall. 1.

We cheered our hearts out whether we were winning or losing. Pep rallies and homecoming activities kept us busy throughout the year. We got spirit, yes we do. We got spirit, how 'bout you? Our varsity cheerleaders certainly did have spirit, and they had many oppor- tunities to prove it. For Homecom- ing Week we sponsored a Most Spirited Homeroom, directed a pretty legs contest, baked a delici- ous cake for football players, and co-sponsored a homecoming dance. At Golden Eagle Cheer- leader Clinic last summer we re- ceived a superior rating in overall competition. Our ham raffle early in the year helped pay for our new uni- forms. With the assistance of advis- er, Mrs. Sandra Miller, our year was a rewarding one. Our j.v. cheerleading year was once again a success. Over the summer we attended cheerleading camp at Appalachian State Univer- sity where we won the spirit award two nights out of three. Under the direction of adviser, Mrs. Diane Hankins, we raised money to buy sweaters for the coming year. 161 golf 4649 Z mf 1 - ' , ,K XML 1 f,Affg - -ff 37 ,wail-W, N f,4iiQwVm69'w ' 1 -, , ,Hz f mu, .- 'Win' , ,,,?5?, .M f- If-2,f4Mw.gmgpm A M15-1 , 245' T K. 162 41 3171 f S' Q' 77' 'f 5 .tf.1 4:f5?' x v A-4 We sometimes practiced until dusk, trying to get that putt lined up just right or that drive powerful enough to miss the sandtraps. Our determination paid off in the end. Led by All-Conference selection and Most Valuable Player Bill Howell, our golf team finished second in the conference for the 1977 season. We achieved this standing by placing second or third in almost every meet. Coach lim Gane was very proud of the outcome of the season.

Then we picked up our rackets and demon- strated our tennis skills for our new coach, Mr. Claude Wright. After losing the MVP of the confer- ence last year and three out of our top six starters, we had a task set out for us. This task seemed a little too heavy for us as we finished the season with a disappointing 5-7 season. We finished the conference tied for fourth and repeated it as we finished fourth again in our conference tour- nament. Amy Haithcock was nomi- nated to the All-Conference team. Team members participating in the tournament were Amy Haithcock, Sandy Winn, julie Haithcock, Susan Treece, Cindy Spivey, and Kim Robin- son. We sent Amy Haithcock, Susan Treece, julie Haithcock, and Cindy Spivey to represent us in the Section- als.

We underwent a fluctuating 1977 tennis season with a 5-4 record led by All-Conference selection and Most Valuable Player, jeff johnson. After losing three out of the top six starters, our hopes for the season looked grim. With the help of some favorable newcomers and spirited let- termen and under the instruction of Coach jerry Daniel, we rounded out the season with a winning record. The pre-season predictions had us rated third in the conference, which expectation we cooperatively lived up to.

As Red Miller led the Denver Broncos to the Super Bowl, the Mighty War- riors, themselves, created a stir by es- tablishing the first 10-0 season in foot- ball. SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER AND STAR WARS kept the movie industry on their toes while West showed its Own filrn, REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE. The Middle East peace talks, Anita Bryant's opposition to Gay Rights, and Elvis' death, all made their mark in history. Neither the extreme heat of summer nor bitter icy days of winter could keep the seniors from striving for per- fect attendance to be exempt from exams under the new rule this year. The Senate lost a valuable man, Hubert Humphrey, and the Wil- mington 10 did not get what they hoped for from Governor Hunt. Bill Dooley left Carolina for bigger things as Coach Ciarmon racked up his fifth Central Tarheel Conference Coach of the Year Award of the past 10 years. It was a rebuilding year for our bas- ketball teams, while the ACC seemed to have a few surprises up its sleeve with no one team dominating the con- ference. THE BOOK OE LISTS, by Wal- lechinsky and Wallace, headed the list of best sellers while a sequel to GONE WITH THE WIND, entitled TARA, was published. As economic recovery eased infla- tion a little, students recovered from Christmas to prepare for the upcom- ing prom. Sophomores prepared for the State Competency test and freshmen rem- inisced about their first year at West. Water skiing, swimming, and the thought of vacation filled the extra hours as summer crept up on spring and another memorable school year ceased. 235 2 The WARRIOR staff CO EDITORS!
