Not long ago here stand an empty, vast field, now one ot the finest schools in the nation. A new West with a new, long-awaited auditorium, with new teachers and students, new ideas, new goals, new leaders, new problems, new honors and new achievements, it is always moving to the tempo of tomarrow, and each year it becomes newer, capturing in its structural splendor a touch of all those who have given and shall give a part of their lives and their youth to form its soul.

Dedicated to Dr. HAROLD L. GEAR Dr. Harold L. Gear's new appointment to the office of superintendent of the Phoenix Union High School district marks a new epoch in the history of West Phoenix High School. The initial develop- ment has been completedg now ours is to build onto our maturity unending superstructures of great- ness. And under Dr. Gear's supervision, we shall. We shall rise with great speed to great heights, as he has. Only two years ago Dr. Gear came to Phoenix from Ohio to be principal of North Phoenix High School. Last year he was made assistant superintendent of the entire PUHS district, and this year he was awarded the superintendency. West Phoenix High School welcomes Dr. Gear with hopes for his happiness and success. We dedicate our 1954 WESTERNER to him-a symbol of our second era--a symbol of a new beginning. .....,,.EyV -7111133159 QM' . The two new high schools in Phoenix, Camelback Cabovej and South Mountain fbelowj, will help ease the crowdedness of the other four city high schools. The schools opened this year with very small student bodies, but within a few short years they are expected to rank with West, North, Union, and Tech. West High welcomes these two fine new schools into the Phoenix Union System's farnily. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS ADMINISTRATION SECTION ........ Administration ...........O............

They are truly great benefactors in the promotion of a well-educated, modern and progressive youth. Newly appointed this year as superintendent of the Phoenix Union High Schools and Phoenix College, Dr. Harold L. Gear is ex- periencing the many tasks and obligations of his important, new capacity.

For the past five years, Principal Donald F. Stone has handled this job with the utmost efficiency and concern. He has tirelessly smoothed out difficulties, assumed responsibilities beyond the call of duty, and contributed in all ways he could to the creation of a modern, progressive West High. Mr. Stone's ambition for West is more student participation in school government. He pursues this goal constantly, as he has faith in the ability of the students to run their school conscientiously and well. Mr. Stone is sincerely interested in the individual student and is always willing and happy to help with a problem, be it large or small. His friendly, informal personality and deep understanding of people have made him immensely popular with the student body. When not engaged in guiding the activities of West, Mr. Stone carries on many of his own. Where he finds the time is a wonder to all, but he is an active pilot, a regular member of the Kiwanis Club, and executive secretary of the Arizona Inter-Scholastic Association. Two SECRETARIES TO THE PRINCIPAL Serving as assistant secretary to the principal is Mrs. Bobbie Posieher. Op-eration of the switch- board occupies most of her time, and she also makes announcements on the public address system. Bringing the departments of West High to- ward greater harmonious efforts, Miss Eliza- beth Titsworth proved to be both stimulating and competent in her new capacity, entailing such duties as Co-ordinator of all-school pro- grams, curriculum improvements, depart- mental budgeting and inventories, and super- vising a new-teacher orientation, teacher training, and student teacher program. She also served as the school's representative to the Parent Teacher's Association. Three Miss Glenna Wilson, secretary to Principal Stone since 1949, has a great many responsibilities such as keeping appointments straight, taking care of correspondence, and is in charge of the public address system. She also has many other duties. Miss Elizabeth Titsworih, Co-ordinator 'Q' ff' REGISTRAR GLEN H. BRADFORD REGlSTRAR'S OFFICE Calmly handling a normally diffi- cult job made even more difficult by the rapid growth of West High's en- rollment is Mr. Glen Bradford, regis- trar. His are the prodigious tasks of scheduling classes to the satisfaction of both teachers and students, keep- ing complete and correct records for each student, and doing all the neces- sary statistical work for the school. He manages to accomplish all this with unruffled nerves and even finds time, somewhere between figuring and chart-making, to help a student plan his schedule, counsel someone with a problem, or just pass along a favorite joke. Mr. Bradford contributed toward our modern West by having key-punch and assorter machines, which greatly expedite record tabulation and office operation, installed in his office in 1951. West is the only high school in the nation to use this system. ALWAYS WILLING 1 l L Efficient and friendly best describes Miss Shirley The important job of credentials secretary is en Peebles, registration secretary, as she helps with trusted to Mrs. Rosamond Nelson, responsible schedule arranging and adjusting. mainly for recording grades and credit transcripts Four Mrs. Carole Shrier, capable key punch operator. can find every bit of information that has been compiled on every student. She is a great help to counselors as well as the Registrars office. a i Ever-busy attendance secretary, Mrs. Helen Low- miller, says a friendly Welcome back with her cordial smile as she checks students' return slips every morning. T0 SERVE STUDENTS The pleasant and proficient atmos- pher of the registrar's office is familiar to all teachers and students as it works behind the scenes to keep active West High running on an even keel. Here, registration, scheduling and at- tendance duties are performed while complete profiles of the activities, hon- ors, grades, etc., of students are conven- iently and accurately recorded and filed. Mrs. Olive Ray serves Principal Stone as AIA ex- ecutive secretary in keeping important records, and she is also a clerk in the registrar's office. I 2 I I ,Q U ul .s- Five DEAN ELEANOR FULLINGTON Mrs. Ruth Faulkner, a new personality on the West High campus, was kept very busy this year. As secretary to the deans, she not only handled all of the adminis- tration's printed matter, she also super- vised the lost and found department, a full-time job in itself. ix EXTRA SPECIAL Pert, smiling Dean of Girls Eleanor Fullington is well-known to all West students. She lends her numerous talents to such varied activities as Girls' League sponsor, supervisor of all campus club activities, and regu- lator of the school calendar. In spite of her busy schedule, how- ever, Miss Fullington is never too busy to help a girl with a problem. An experienced teacher and coun- selor, Miss Fullington has been coun- seling at West for all five of its school years. Never old-fashioned in her ideas, she is continually striving to make ours 'A New West. Mrs. Ruth Faulkner, secretary to the deans - Q Dean Vaughn takes a little time out of his busy schedule to sell two tickets for the Dads' Club Father and Daughter Banquet. Dean of Boys William C. Vaughn is one of the most popular figures on the West High campus. He is res onsible for the student P handbook, which every Thunderbird. finds invaluable. In addition, Dean Vaughn is supervisor of the Boys' League and one of the guiding forces behind the Dads' Club. Mr. Vaughn has been at West as Dean of Boys since its opening and without him, West High wouldn't seem complete. The tables were turned this year when members of the Dads' Club of West Phoenix High School honored their daughters at the Father and Daughter banquet held November 9 in the cafeteria. It has been tradi- tional for them to have a Father- Son banquet. Dean Vaughn, secre- tary of the club, made arrange- ments for the sale of the dinner tickets at 51.50 per person. Both Dean Fullington and Dean Vaughn direct many extra-curricular activi- ties at West. Dean William C. Vaughn Seven ..,,...,..,,, ,i-w.,,. ,-.. . .W ,.,, , 1,., 1' Q ' 'raw , iw' ' ww!

Allan Starr interviewed Governor Howard Pyle and Mr. George Miller. president of the P.T.A., at the initial dedication ceremonies for the new Auditorium. The Governor spoke at the first event in the new building. The Parent-Teachers Association is one of the most important school organizations. Through the P.T.A., the parents are kept informed about all phases of school life. Parents are able to express their ideas concerning sub- jects related to the school at P.T.A. meetings. Thunder- birds are justly proud of their P.T.A., one of the best in the state. i I Teachers and parents enjoyed refreshments served in the cafe- teria after P.T.A. meetings. Cake and coffee tasted good after programs concerning West High and education in general. Seucntecn I1 -gg. Nh. ' A student was interviewed before a meet- ing of the P.T.A. to show the workings of the counseling system at West. This was only one of a number of such informative programs. CPEN Principal Stone discusses West's counseling system with interested parents. Open house crowds showed great inter- est in this important department of the school.

Under their guidance, the Associated Student Body of WPHS continually improved and prospered. All five of the big wheels carried out their many complicated duties with careful judgment and wisdom. Charno did an admirable job of representing the school at outside events. He also conducted assemblies in a manner that would have been a credit to any ex- perienced administrator.

Members of these administrative bodies plan and officiate affairs that involve the students directly. Members of the Finance Committee budget our funds. Social Committee plans the popular and successful dances. All campus projects such as the March of Dimes and Adopt- A-Family drives are controlled by the Activity Committee. Members of the Assembly Com- mittee stage the entertaining assemblies. The principal duty of the Election Committee is to officiate in school elections.

Twenty-four Justice, understanding and encour- agement are the keys that the Guid- ance Board uses to open the doors of good citizenship and a successful stu- dent government. The board is composed of students elected by the student body, two sen- ior representatives and two junior representatives and the student body president, and a faculty sponsor ap- pointed by the principal. They meet one period each day to review, advise, discuss, and judge the cases brought against those violating the rules of the merit system. It is their duty to deter- mine the number of demerits to be given in accordance with the nature of the offense, to encourage co-opera- tion and to exemplify true democratic principles as they are being taught. W' The fairness and integrity of mem- bers of the Guidance Board has always held the admiration of the faculty and their fellow classmates.

Comprising the student body executive officers, a rep- resentative from each homeroom, all class presidents, members of the guid- ance board and the standing commit- tees, the council is able to represent the problems and desires of the entire student body and to encourage leader- ,ship and interest in good government.

The league is directed by a cabinet of officers and committee chairmen, and is co-ordinated by four class councils, and sponsored by the popular dean of girls, Miss Eleanor Fullington, and faculty advisors. Outstanding cabinet officers are: Paula Adams, president, Linda Mahaffey, vice-president, Lorena Larriva, secretary, and Dottie Allison, treasurer. The class council presidents are Lynn Gardner, senior, Lilly Yee, junior, Sharon Farris, sophomore, and Joan Swartz, freshman. Senior class council sponsor is Miss Ruth Miller. Miss Ruby Rieder sponsors the junior council, and Miss Eugenia Zeitlin and Miss Margaret Doyle the sophomore and freshman councils, re- spectively. All of their united endeavors integrate into one continuously functioning body to promote a wholesome spirit of unity among the girls.

Chosen by the West High boys were the officers, Buddy Fike, Presidentg Tom Pavey, Vice-President, and Jack Brown, Secre- tary-Treasurer. Don Cook served as President for the first two terms. This group had quite a busy agenda. Their greatest accomplishment was to write a constitution for West High's Boys' League. They were also responsible for founding the Boys' Alliance Inter-City Council Organiza- tion, which consists of the presidents and vice-presidents of all the boys' leagues in the Phoenix Union High Schools.

L1 'Q-,QP BOB HIGHTOWER President NANCY HALL Secretary YDS SENICR CLASS, TO THE WIND TO THE WIND To the wind we go, My joyful friends, To the careless moving wind, To heartlessly be tossed aside, To be quickly marked and pinned, To be leaders, followers, the great, The spokesmen of our land, To invent, discover and create, To strive, to fail, to stand. And the going will be rough and hard, But I see within our eyes, A fiery youth too great to quell, To strong and far too wise. So farewell my friends, my eager friends, And may all our dreams be spinned Across each straight and separate course Upon a TAMER WIND. Thirty-two j 'x Sf - .f JANET PATTERSON Vice-President BETTY FIELD Treasurer il A GREAT TEAM Bob Hightower, Senior class president, set the pace for co-operation and many achievements with his fine leadership. Along with the presidency, Bob lent himself to ROTC activities and scribbled many an interesting word for the Sun Dial as Ed- itor-in-Chief second semester. A four-year term has finally ended for Janet Patterson, who served as vice-president of her class since the Senior class members were only baby Thunderbirds. Her enthusiasm, capability and interest charmed the ballot boxes and kept her always in demand as a loyal supporter and friend to the class of 54. Janet was also given the Daughters of the American Revolution award for her outstanding citizenship. Secretary of the Senior class is Nancy Hall, and while she keeps an accurate record for them, she is never too busy for extra-club activities and to make top grades as well. This pert miss was also a candidate for Salad Bowl Princess. Betty Field is the little girl with the big job of taking care of the finances for the Seniors, and aside from being a busy treasurer, she is a skillful tennis letter-gal. WMM- ts A W ,V Two wonderful coaches, Miss Elizabeth Hegner, who is a new mentor to the Seniors this year, and Mr. Arnold Bereit, a wise and popular friend through all four years made a great team together as Senior class sponsors. The Seniors came through the last quarter of their high school careers with flying colors. Spon- soring Contemporary Accents, selling magazines to finance their Ditch day, the banquet, and to buy a lasting gift for their graduation ceremony and prom, the class of '54 can' look back and be proud of their whole four years at West Sugar and Spice plus everything nice was the setting of the Tennettcs' annual semi-formal dance.

Fifty-eight THE JUNIOR JUBILEE We hate to see the seniors go But can't help smiling when we know That now the limelight turns on we' Who fill their shoes. What glee To think the year is named for us, The honors, privileges and fuss To greet our humble little souls, Not mentioning the many goals That soon will fall before our feet. Responsibilities to meet, The leadership that calls our name, Yes, all this senioristic fame Will form our last rememberance With joys and dreams and grand events. And so, when seniors weep and sigh We all rejoice and wave good-bye. E i Q an 5 Vivacious Lily Yee, with an abundance of personality and executive ability, has been chosen to serve three outstand- ing years as Vice-President of her class. This charming little gal has helped to put the Jun- ior class in the spotlight.

Third-year Thunderbirds sponsored several successful social events, among which were the class sports dance and the annual Junior-Senior Prom.

Robed in the traditional ma- roon and white, the students marched into the stadium to the music of the West Phoenix High School band. The Reverend W. Clyde Beecher offered the invocation, and the mixed chorus presented several selections. Speeches were given by Salutatorians Tom Watt and Gordon Holt and Valedictorians Barbara Goor and Margaret Edwards. Principal D. F. Stone presented the class, and a member of the Board of Education awarded the coveted sheepskins. Four years of study at West were over-four years of life. High school now a part of the past, the graduates slowly leave the stadium. Om' Hunrlrcfl Thirty-five sents her address, ending four years of intense study. This was West's first year to have two valedictorians. A proud graduate shakes hands with a mem- ber of the Board of Education. Principal Donald F. Stone assists in the ceremony. -'R' Y?

This year's edition of the Thunderbird football squad was a hard- fighting though inexperienced outfit. Starting the season with only nine returning lettermen, Coach Vern Braasclh and his assistant, Cecil Crouch, molded a squad made up of 13 seniors and 11 under- classmen into a hard-hitting team that gave other class A teams trouble at times, even though most observers felt the Thunderbird football team was still a year away from realizing its full potential. WEST 1, TUCSON 0 Coach Braasch's 'Ilhunderbirds traveled to Tucson the next weekend to meet the 1952 state champion Badgers in a defensive struggle that saw Tucson capitalize on fumbles and pass intercep- tions to take a 27-0 win. The decision was later reversed when West was awarded a 1-0 victory because of an ineligible Tucson player. Milt Naylor, West safetyman breezes by a Phoenix Tech de fender with a Hornet punt.

WEST 7, ST.

The Birds finished with a 3-5-1 record to nail down seventh place in the class A race. Phil Glaze, Senior guard, was given a second-team berth on the all-state squad. Bill Crabtree C223, Mesa's all-state back, attempts to drive through the West line but gets nowhere as Dick Nickum 6303, Gene Jones 4233, and Jack Blake C273 move in to put the stop on him.

The defending champion Hornets started the final game as if they meant to keep the title another year, building up a 21-12 halftime lead, but in the second half the Thunderbirds' defenses started clicking, and Ronny Robertson, George Nelson, and Sonny Nelson broke up the usually smooth Tech passing game.

With five lettermen, including starters Neill Richards and Bob Mueller, back from his second place club of 1952-53, Coach Link Richmond's varsity cagers rated as preseason favorites in the class A race along with Tuc- son and Mesa. After several weeks of serious practice, Coach Rich- mond's forces opened their season December 4 against an unpolished Glendale crew. Paced by Neill Richards and Bob Mueller, the Thunderbirds coasted to an easy 57-28 decision. West continued its winning ways in the Birds next four games, dropping Mesa, North, Yuma, and St. Mary's handily before a combination of a long bus ride, a holi- day layoff, and a red-hot Tucson team gave West its first loss, 57-37. Stung by the defeat, the Birds return to Phoenix the following night and handed Class B champions Carver their only loss of the season, 49-47, behind the fourth quarter point surge of reserve guard Tom Hudak. The Thunderbirds went on from the Carver victory to pile up their longest winning streak of the season as they swept past Phoenix Union, Phoenix Tech, Amphi- theater, Glendale, North, Mesa, St. Mary's, and Yuma before an inspired band of Hornets from Phoenix Tech cut the streak short at nine straight. Playing without center Neill Richards, the Birds dropped a return match with Tucson the following night, 75-65. West closed out its regular season play by taking easy wins over Amphitheater and Phoenix Union to post a 16-3 season record, good enough for first place in the city league race and a tie for second in the class A con- ference with Mesa.

For eight long months we worked steadily toward our goal. We stayed after school, came to school on Satur- days and holidays, and sacrificed lunch hours with but one purpose in mind -to make this the best Westerner yet. Your 1953-1954 Westerner Staff was the greatest. Everyone in each department donated both time and talent to the book which makes this truly a project of the students. Putting out a year-book isn't all work, however. We have had many good times this year, and I will remember my association with the Westerner and its staff as being one of the most priceless experiences of my life. A special, special thanks is extended to these special people.
