WP FMDMT Beginning with a pep rally in the parking lot at West Valley, which then developed into a motorcade of red and gold decorated cars ending at Kiwanis Field, West Valley launched another Homecoming with spirit! Floats, the West Valley marching band, a display by BIONIC and an enthusiastic crowd spurred the Wolfpack on as they defeated the Eielson Ravens with a score of 12-6 in overtime play to win their second Homecoming game n three years. The spirit exhibited during the game carried over to the Homecoming Dance, held the next night in the commons. With a good turnout of several hundred people, the first dance of the school year, sponsored by Student Council, was a fantastic success. Reigning over the dance with the appropriate theme, We Are the Champions. . .So the Sky's the Limit, were Seniors King Russ Talvi and Queen Julie Burud. Homecoming was a great way to start of an exciting and enjoyable year at West! .

FALL AT WEST WAS AN INTERLUDE PERVADED BY PHANTOMS AND MASKED MEN, SHARING WITH DTHERS, AND REMINISCING Fall activities included a Halloween dress-up day, the Senior Ball, and Thanksgiving activities. The festivities were full of student vivacity and zest that contributed to the mysteriousness of Halloween, the ecstasy of the Senior Ball, and the holiday mood at Thanksgiving. On October 31st, the Halloween spirit was alive and well at West. The halls, decorated with ghosts, pumpkins, skulls, bats, and other eerie paraphernalia, were crowded with witches, cowboys, gangsters, clowns, and scarecrows, A dance with free admission to those in disguising garb concluded the day of masquerade. The Senior Ball, held November 18th, was a memorable evening of Dancing in the dark, walking through the park, and Reminiscingf' The Traveler's Inn Gold Room was festooned with garlands and shrubberies for the special night, and couples danced beneath the stars to the Sounds of Fairbanks. Dancing in the reign were Seniors, King Russ Talvi and Queen Leslie Monroe. Now as the years go on, the Class of '79 will reminisce fondly about their Senior Ball. As Thanksgiving approached, many West students entered into the holiday spirit of generosity. ln a frenzy of door-to-door soliciting and in-school campaigning, classes collected cans for the Salvation Army. Spirit Cup competition provided incentive for the classes and the winning Seniors were also presented with S50 from Student Council. A grand total of 919 cans was collected, and with the added contribution of 73 turkeys from the Wolfpack Band, West Valley presented a cornucopia of foods for the Fairbanks needy. In the bright future, King Russ Talvi and Queen Leslie Monroe will always remember their royal endeavors. Sylvester the Cat, alias Heidi White, spends Halloween researching new methods for capturing his favorite food, Tweety-Bird.
