That mirror couldn't answer. Or how many mirrors do you know that can talk? By Marilyn Orlovich At the first Jr.-Sr. High pep assem- bly, Bill McCreery, President of the Jr. High Student Council, announced that a football player of the weeky' award will be awarded by the Jr. High Student Council. This 55.00 certificate is to be awarded each week to agdeserving best player. The Jr. High Student Council will continue to do this all through the football season. This certificate is available for both Senior and Junior High players. This year's first player of the week award was presented to Lou Poff by Bill McCreery at a pep rally held on September i8. The player of the week is chosen by the football coaching staff on the basis of the player's performance in each game. Coaches Wesolowski and Golletti will determine the Jr. High player of the week when our season begins. . As usual, this year's Jr. High Student Council will be one of the busiest and most active organizations in the School. President Bill McCreery experienced from last year's active council, will head the organization in a variety of activities and worthy spon- sorships which will include: Principal For a Day, 7th and 8th Grade Frolic, 9th Grade Hayride, Buses to basketball and football games, dances, skating parties, the Western Beaver Christmas food drive, pep assemblies, Exchange days with neighboring school Councils, the Player of the Week Award, and the annual Dollars For Scholars fund drive. Along with these activities, the Council will attempt to contribute in some way to improve the school spirit at Western. We urge all the students of Western especially the Jr. High to give their full support to the officers and members of our Jr. High Student Council.

Did you know that Shawn Sodders carries a step ladder around so she can stare into Mike Madish's eyes? If you hear a commotion in Homeroom IOS its only the Chisoms, Charles and Patty having one of their daily family spats. The A'S and the B's , right! Sally Acon and Byran Balco and Anna Acon and Brad Balco! We've all heard of equal rights for women but Karen Groscost has gone too far now that she drives her own tractor!
