Our ommunifg Some people will possibly wonder about the inclusion of a page of borough pictures in this school annual. We have added such a section for two reasons: the community which our school serves has, as a matter of course, an important place in school affairsg and we are proud of our borough. These pictures are not the only points of interest or importance in West Reading. However, they are representative, and we feel that they will call to mind some of the places which the students of West Reading High School will always associate with their school life. woomerfg gonhacfionery penn jAeafer 'lflklf peachng .jwlofef peachng .jwloalaifaf weaf lgeacbng liner mai lgeavkng gorough

As another year rolls around and another issue of the Vaquero comes from the press, I am again happy at the privilege of writing a few words of greeting to its readers. From the activities of the staE this year, I know the Vaquero will be a huge success and that the staff is to be congratulated upon it. As for the book itself, it will, I am sure, be a source of pleasure for years to come to those who own and cherish one, for it will always be a link with the past. Eight MR. EDWIN B. YEICH High School Principal MR. J. MAURICE STRATTAN Supervising Principal I am sure that we will all be pleased with the 1948 Vaquero. The staf has worked hard and has met many difficulties in the problems of advertising, distribution, printing, and binding, and par- ticularly, that of getting our yearbook to us on time. From the editor down, they deserve our highest commendations. As 'this is being written, there is every indication that the 1948 Vaquero will be a worthy addition to its predecessors. To the entire staff, congratulations, and to the seniors of 1948, good luck and success in your plans for the future. 'Quit ye like men,' is the famous advice of St. Paul. Work and live so that no minute is ever lost or regretted. J. MAURICE STRATTAN EDWIN B.
