MR. ALVIN PANZER Vico Principal MR. ROBERT LETT Assistant to the Principal Mr. Panzer, our vice principal, spends many tedious hours planning schedules and school procedures. Our day at West Side runs smoothly because he has made changes which help the school to function more efficiently. Through careful scheduling, he has made the classrooms and school buildings less congested. We arc able to work in a more relaxed atmosphere. Truly, he possesses the spirit of the Newark Founding Fathers; he works hard at meeting the needs of the present and future classes of West Side High School. We, the class of June 1965, wish him continued success in his future years at West Side. Even.- city has a set of laws which must be obeyed. At times, though, these laws are forgotten and misconstrued. This is an offense which must be corrected; and there are men for this job. So it is at West Side. There is only one big difference, we have only one man who acts as a corrector. This man is Mr. Lett, who is an assistant to the principal. He is also our guide and leader, but most of all he is our friend. When we need help in coping with our problems, we turn to Mr. Lett. He is a “big brother” for all students. 11
