Seniors receive Torch Honor pins What is the West Seattle spirit to which this 1957 Kimtah is dedicated? Is it pep at games, enthusiasm for school activities, loyalty to the school, and pride in its traditions? I dare say that we might all agree that these are some of the outcomes of our school spirit, hut not school spirit itself. When we are searching for the real spirit of a school, aren't we trying to find its essence, its inner meaning? To me, the essence of West Seattle is our respect for knowledge, our respect for people, and our eagerness to work together for the common good. That we love know- ledge is proven again and again hy the tremendous use we make of our library and hy the increasing status of scholarship and the Honor Society. That we respect people is demonstrated by our friendship for all students regardless of race, religion or class. That we strive for the common good is demonstrated hy the Way students and teachers work together thru Cooperative Student Gov- ernment to solve our common problems. Isn't this the essence and isn't this the spirit of West Seattle High School? CL ,Ei J

The spirit of West Seattle is not a thing you can put your finger on. You can't point and say: HThere it isln But that it does exist is a fact beyond question. We see it at athletic contests, where we always have many people from the community supporting our teams. We see it in the summer at the Hi-Yu. We see it in the many active service clubs - oh, it exists all right. And a very good thing it is, too. One of the problems of living in a large city is that one may become foot-loose, lost, rootless, just another member of the lonely crowd. We do not thrive under such conditions, as we have a need to belongg we want to be important parts of the society in which we live. We are grateful that in West Seattle we have a com- munity feeling. We have a place where we belong. We have a home. -ff-AQ f if f p Parents take interest at Open House
