XVesterners liave entered into tlic spirit of all-out prepared- ness with tlie rest of the nation. A Red Cross chapter was forniedg First Aid courses were giveng air raid precautions xvcrc talceng and students entered defense activities. Yet, altliougli it could be clearly seen only occasionally tlirougli tlie stir and bustle ot Xvestern at War, cacll Vlfcsterner realized tliat tlie truc purpose of our work was, not to vanquisli an eueiny, but to establish forever tlic principle wliiclr lias been inanis ideal since his birtli, a lasting world peace based upon fair treatment for every individual, and tlnis for every nation. Peace between tivo nations is, of course, tlie first elemen- tary step tliat inust be talccn. But a state of peace and coopera- tion aniong the nations of a licuiispliere is tlie tirst truly effective step to be taken. 'l'lius, because we base our liopes of the tiual cstablislnnent ot a true world peace upon tlie cstablislunent of a true peace between large divisions of tlie world, the staff of 79,12 lias clioscn as tlic tliciuc tor its publication, Pau-Aincri canisin.

At the opening assembly new students were made familiar with the idiosynerasies of VVestern Iligh School life, and a few words were said concerning the status of NVestern, l all l94l. VVC learned of new additions to the faculty, and comment was made on the hard-won improvements in the school. VVC were assured that we no longer need fear rainy April, for the assembly hall's leaky roof had been repaired during the summer. A fact amazing to us. considering the increase in VVashington population, was that VVesteru's enrollment was less than that of the previous vear. 'l'o the familiar tune of flop Along, Dear Old NVestern we departed to our respective sections. where an endless parade of cards awaited us, pink for the girls, blue for the boys, and yellow, green, and white for whoever needed them. l or the first few weeks school was a con- fusion of program changes, section changes, and sophomores frantically looking for the third floor. Little by little programs were straight- ened out, sophomores ceased wandering, and we said good-bye to those annoying little white program slips. During thc following weeks clubs met, elected officers, and set about their business for the year. Football practice in preparation for the fall season was well under way, cadets were mobilized, oflieers and non- eoms selected, and companies formed. The last few days of September rushed past in a whirlwind of pep assemblies and ticket campaigns, for the football season was opening. 'l'hc weather was hot and entlmsiasm was high as we trudged to Bradley Field for the first game. As golden October spent itself, we saw many games, good. bad, and indifferent. Soon afterwards a new flag salute was intro- duced to XVcstern. Several dress rehearsals were held so that we might execute this new salute without endangering the welfare of our comrades, and we were instructed to brush up on our company maimers. All this was in preparation for our first formal assembly, to be held in honor of Theodore Roosevelt on his birthday, October twenty-seven. The prin- ciples and philosophy of this great man were brought to our attention. and the speakers of the day interpreted and applied them in terms of the problems of today. The first speaker was Robert Stokes. who spoke on the subject of Applying Theodore Roosevelt's Beliefs. Martha Reed followed, presenting 'l'heodore Roosevelt's Ideals. At this point a note of relaxation entered the program as we listened to the orchestra give its rendition of a serenade by Mozart. Our next speaker, the guest of the day, was Major Reginald E. Looker, XVestern alumnus. who. as a member of the famous VVhite llouse Gang, had been personally acquainted with Theodore Roosevelt. There- upon the assembly lost its air of formality, for Major Looker's vivid account of the lovable Teddy and the amusing antics of the gang dispatched all remaining ceremony. The assembly closed with the singing of l Love A Parade and A'Cod Bless America by the choir and Hnally The Star-Spangled Banner by the entire assembly. Our second formal assembly was held in observance of American l'iducation XVeelc. On November thirteenth. to the strains of an All- Anierican niarch. we filed into the auditorium. and Dr. Newton opened the assembly with the reading of a passage from the Scriptures. 'l'he theme of the program was l'lducation for a Strong i'XlltCl'lL'tl.n Robert Kibler spoke of the necessity of Safeguarding School Support, after which Naiv 'lillinan sanf' Our America. . 5 Speaking to us on Strengthening National lXloralc. hlartha Reed emphasized the im- portance of strong morale in a nation. .Xfter the orchestra played the l irst Xlovement from the l itteenth Symphony by llayden, lfrank Mullin spoke on l.earning the XVays of Democracy. As the program closed, the stage became darkg the stirring voice of Charles Seiler rang out in A Prayer for Ainerica g and the curtains parted on an impressive tableau of the Statue of Liberty. Thanksgiving was soon upon us, and as thc day drew near baskettilling competition grew keen between sections. Our mouths watered as we passed the section rooms heaped with delicious foods. .Xt the assembly on the day before llizinksgiving. the product of our ettorts was piled before our eyes upon the auditoriinn stage. As the sections came forth with their otterings. the rows of gaily decorated baskets grew longer and longer. 'l'he glass bank. a lish- bowl serving a new purpose, soon became tilled with niclcels. dimes. and dollar bills. XYestern, in its usual good style, displayed its wish to serve others by amassing one luuidred twenty- six well supplied baskets of food and the gener- ous sum of one hundred thirty-four dollars. 'l'hat evening the Cadet Corps officially opened the XYestern social season at the first Cadet llop. Ufticers. non-coins. the ranks. and a multitude of XVestern's fair ones whirled the evening away in the beautifully decorated gym. Aniid the glitter and sparkle of gold braid, shining brass. and the music of llarry Sweitzer's Orchestra, the evening was proclaimed a great success. November departed silently and out of the quietness carrie the blow that rocked the world. As we carrie to school on Monday, December eighth, we were conscious as we had never been before of ourselves, our country, and our posi- tion in the world. At 12:00 we were called into thc auditorium to hear the declaration of war by Congress. 'l'here was nobody in the school who was not moved, even shocked, at the thought of war. The next two weeks were exciting ones. Speculation was rife, in the halls, class rooms, and the lunehroom. Anger and affected calm, but no indifference, were exhibited. XVestern in a few days turned from its usual carefree self into a group with united purpose. Boys left school to join the servieesg air raid drills were heldg emergency officers were appointed. Announcements carrie through from school headquarters asking that we co- operate with civilian defense ineasures by re- stricting our night activities. Then and there we said good-bye to future school dances and evening entertainments. Plans for the Candle- light Ball. our elaborate Christmas dance, were cancelled. 'l'hose few weeks before Christmas were weeks of wonder. but the festivities at VVestern were as jolly as they have ever been. VVhen Dr. Newton entered the main hall on Decem- ber twenty-second, he was greeted by the sight of a beautiful decorated Christmas tree. a gift to him from the students of KVestern. 'l'he next day was one of celebration and short classes. At the ringing of three short bells, we hurried to the auditorium and settled our- selves for the Christmas assembly. 'l'he strains of 'AOh, Come All Ye I aithful drifted to our ears. and soon the candle-lit choir tiled down the darkened aisles. 'l'o the pealing of 'l'he Angelus the curtains opened upon a tableau of the madonna and her angels with people of all nations worshipping her. 'l'he singing of Christmas carols followed. and gifts of various clubs were presented to Dr. Newton. 'l'hen Dr. Newton invited the returned almnni to the stage to re-introduce themselves to XVestern. Immediately afterwards we returned to classes for the few remaining minutes before lunch. For the rest of the day the seniors gave way their lofty position to the former XVesterners. and we felt almost as overpowered as the day we entered XVcstern as sophomores. l or the rest of the afternoon we became a group of clock-watchers, and at last, at the Hrst bell at 3:00 we broke loose for the long-awaited vaca- ti011s. Dr. Newton had given us instructions to leave our books at school over the holidays. and we did. XVhat occurred over the holidays is the personal story of each XVesterner. but the alunmi again appeared en masse at the Holly Ilop, a dance sponsored by the Alumni Association, The holidays were interrupted for the teachers, however, by midnight vigils which were necessitated by air raid precautions. l5L'Cll ezlllecl mtl, histezicl, il three hour ziehieref zlhle to hrrrs their joy i11 worry 11ho11t their L'll1lIll'L' ot pzissirrgg Alllk' kirul of test. .2:lllllL'I'L'll together i11 the lllltliltllllllll wl1ere Dr. Newton showecl 115 ll few slicles of XX7CSlCl'Il were suherecl hx' Ll pietlrre of XXiCSlCl'IlL'I'S ltmziclecl witl1 hunks. eolleetecl for the snlcliers of XX'c1rlcl lla1xi11g haul ll week Cllll to l'CL'lIl7CIALllC l-l'0lll Xxwitl' I lll tl1e Yieturs' Book C:1111p11ig11.

Dr. Newton had asked for 3.000 books, we gave him almost 7,000. We proved that what could be done by Westerners in 1916 could be done equally well in 1942. Graduation day arrived, and at 1:30 the auditorium was filled with friends, relatives, and students. To the strains of a beautiful march, graduates filed in, and the exercises began with the invocation by the Reverend Mr. Norman D. Gochring. Then, with a salutatory by Laura MacNeese, several guest speakers, a valedictory by Maxine Ilari, a clarinet solo by Marian King, presentation of diplomas by Dr. Newton, and finally that familiar Coronation March, the class of February, 1942, was graduated. Dr. Newton was made an honorary member of the class. After rounds of congratulations, we bid adieu to the graduates and looked forward to our commencement in the not-too-distant future. Some of the grads remained with us as P.G.'s, but most of them had said a final good-bye to Western. The second week of February brought us several assemblies and loads of excitement. We paid honor to Abraham Lincoln, and once more showed our generosity on Valcntine's Day by bringing Bundles for VVestern. At the assembly on the thirteenth we exchanged bundles of discarded clothing for red card- board hearts, and there was scarcely a person at XVestcrn who did not sport one. The next week-end was a long one, extending over Monday, February sixteenth, Registration Day. This one was as wet and dark as the first one a year ago. Cadets and teachers worked diligently from six in the morning until nine at night registering the throngs of men. Wed- nesday, the eighteenth, marked Phi Beta Rho's formal induction ceremonies. The new mem- bers of Western's honor society were installed by Chairman Frank Mullin, and their pins were presented to them by Dr. Newton. Professor George Winchester Stone, of George Wash- ington University, spoke to the student body on the Greek ideals of a well rounded life, and applied these ideals in expanding our own life and education. The morning of the presentation of commis- sions to the officers of the Fourth Regiment was cold and sharp, but the weather served only to invigorate the cadets. As we saw them pass in review, we were certain that the Fighting Fourth would return victorious from the afternoon's Regimental Competition at Cen- tral. Our hopes for that afternoon were ful- filled, and the following 'l'hursday our two battalions settled the Battalion Competition by marching off with the first two places. For the fourth year in succession, the victory flag was ours. As the shouting for the cadets died down, cheers for the Draiua Club's animal spring production, The Bat, rang out. VVhen XVcstern's slcuthy production was presented on March twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh, the clamoring of the enthusiastic audience was surpassed only by the screams of the murdered cast. The previous week of delightful weather had convinced us that spring was here to stay. This pleasant illusion, however, was temporarily in- terrupted by a gentle flurry of snow, amassing about eighteen inches on Palm Sunday, and knocking half of Washington out of commis- sion. But, like the Postal Service, nor wind, nor rain, nor slcet, nor snow could stop the Westerner Staff. On April fourth the West- erner went to press, and the Editor sank down for a long spring of worrying. The year had circled for the yearbook, but school events went right on. April Hftccnth celebrated Pan-American Day. Now, more than evcr, the ties between the Americas must be strong, and the Pan- Ainerican Club strives to strengthen these bonds. The yearly addition to the collection of Hags was made, this time being the flag of Colombia. The warm days of spring passed quickly and soon XV8SlllllgtOI1,S heat was upon us. We trooped en masse to see the Company Com- petitive, and suffered agonies while waiting for the decision. Finally Iune came. The last few days of school are always fun. No studies, no classes, no books make it an awkward, but interesting, pause before the grand jump into the leisurely summer vacation. Seniors bid sorrowful fare- wells to teachers, friends, and school, while underclassmen gaily leave, assured of the con- tinuance of the joyful, carefree, high school days the following September. aw v'i?i'-li'-'Q --if af Tiff as A 1 li .

Officers surveyed their rookies hopefullyg new privates looked to their officers question- inglyg experienced men and non-eoms appraised both with the air of those who had been through it all before and knew what was what. Companies were formed, the long grind began. VV ith the resounding click of heels, the streets of Burlcith were again turned over to groups of marching cadets. Strut and snap became the order of the day, ragged cadence smoothed outg sagging shoulders straightenedg ranks and files took formg officers' voices gained force and volume. During the early Regimental parades the seriousness and determination of the units -band, companies, officers, all-well betokened that they would not let their record be marred. Regimental and Battalion reviews became things of regularity: rifles were issued, and the crack of hand against leather against wood became a part of the cadet panorama. Manual of Arms took up a great deal of time, for VVestern companies had long been famed for rifle drill, Company Inspection became the normal thing every drill day, for a good showing must be made for the Brigade Colonel, and all the while anxious non-coins prepped their boys for the intramural squad competitive. Early in December the squads, two from each com- pany. were rated, and the first squad of Com- pany K. led by Corporal Iames Crawford and commanded by First Sergeant George Graves, was adjudged best, the sixth squad of K was secondg the first of L, third. lt was not till around Christmas time that uniforms were worn, and then with shining of brass and brushing of hats the boys began to feel like real soldiers, a certain new and differ- ent snap was seen, uniforms were the final complement, now they were cadets. During the Christmas holidays the officers surveyed what had been done, laid plans for the future, and realized with a start that March, Battalion and Regimental time, was near. As school reopened with fiurries of bad weather, the companies went into winter drill sessions. working indoors, practicing, perfecting. and polishing Manual of Arms and Inspection. VVith the resumption of outdoor drills and the return of competitive weather, Monday . - ', and 'l'hursday afternoons were devoted almost entirely to practice in drilling as Regiment or Battalions. For on March 2? the Fourth Regi- ment was to march into Central Stadium to be rated with units from other schools, and on March 26 the Battalions were to compete. As the big days drew closer and closer and many hasty conferences were held in the cadet office. concern was felt for the condition of the regi- mentg but on the day itself. Lieutenant Hawkins. speaking to the assembled cadets, left them in such high spirits that when they returned to school it was with the Regimental flag safe in Western for another year. One streamer added, two to go. On the following Thursday, NVestern Bat- talions, repeating the preceding year's perform- ance, walked away with all available prizes. Major Arthur VVyatt's l irst Battalion, winningg while Major john Bury led the Second Bat- talion to second place: and, as Major Bury later remarked, ult took a XVestcrn Battalion to beat us. 'l'wo wong one to go. On the day the Battalions competed, the Cadet Bands of the various schools also had their competitive. XVestern's Baud this year, lcd by Captain XValker, has been small in iuunbcrs but mighty in spirit and ability. All year the pride of XVestern, their perfectly cadenced marches were a tremendous coiitribu- tion toward the winning of the Regimental and Battalion drills. 'l'he judges in the Band Com- petition picked them as second best in the city, an honor to them and their ollicers. On March 28 a victory assembly was heldg the school turned out to commend Lieutenant Colonel Elmer Cray, leader of the winning Fourth Regiment and his Adjutant, Norman Kidwellg they applauded loud and long hlajors Arthur VVyatt and john Bury and their Adjutants, Lieutenants Stuart Beatson and Iohn Bakerg and they cheered for Lawrence VValker and his band. Dr. Newton, in con- gratulating these oflicers for their Hue work, also reminded the cadets that there was one big job left to do. The Company Competitive, biggest and dearest in VVestern hearts, was yet to be won. May 13 was not far off. VVith this thought in mind, the cadets returned to school after the Easter holidays to begin work on Extended Order, the final lap in the cadet year. lust before school disbanded for the Easter holidays, the animal Manual of Arms competi- tion was held with the following results.

During that period, it has always displayed its resolution. This year we can feel that If has done its job in a different way. Never before has any company reported for drill with quite the same attitude. 'l'here has been an unquenehable spirit of determination which all of the waters of the Amazon could not quench, nor could all the fires of Victory make it burn any brighter. Iudging from the past, ll Company has raised its standards to a still higher degree. It is the duty of every VVestern Cadet to keep himself and his uniform in the most immaculate condition. Formerly this was an implied law, but today in Il Company it is a rigid law bearing ponderous weight. In other words, the H Company of 1942 has not only lived up to the standards set for it, but it has also set standards that future II Companies will have to keep. XVe, the officers of the company, extend to the privates our most hearty and sin- cere thanks for their loyal support during the past year.

The standards of K Company have been set high, and its men have worked to attain these standards with a willingness inspired by a feeling of pride in that which they have undertaken. They have shown confidence, a firm belief in that of which they themselves are capable. Regardless of the final result of their efforts, I will always feel that they have fulfilled my expectations completely. No more could have been asked than that they do their best.

The team was led to the score by Duke O'Connell. BASKETBALL The high point of Western's basketball sea- son was reached in the 33-22 defeat of the Calvin Coolidge five which assured a chance for the Red Raiders in the play-off. BASEBALL Pitchers Charley Hines and Clarence Kuldell showed exceptional ability as they hurled VVestern to the 15-2 triumph over Roosevelt in one of the most important games of the season. TRACK Western's track team achieved its greatest feat in winning the Maryland University mile relay for district schools in the near record time of 3: 36. The team was made up of Tasins, Edelman, Pergande, and Townsend.

GOLF The Central team was forced to a 7-2 score by VVestern. Football Tina s1'R1zNc'rH of NVcstern's Red Raiders was doubtful when the 1941 football season began. Coach Fred Mulvey, in his first year at Western, had to depend largely on inexperi- enced men, since many of the members of the 1940 inter-high championship team had been lost by graduation. The new coach was ex- pected to use much the same system as that employed by his predecessor, Mr. Ahern, so it was not likely that any difficulties would arise from the change in coaches. The prospects for another inter-high title were not too bright, but the school expected the team to give a good account of itself. ' The losses in the first two contests were not encouraging, but the contrast between the two games showed that the team was improving rapidly. The Red Raiders were infinitely better in the W. 81 L. fracas than in the Gonzaga game, for, although Western sustained the defeat, the Little Generals were on the defen- sive most of the afternoon. The increasing efficiency of the Western attack was emphasized by the Raiders' per- formance in their first inter-high tilt, in which they defeated Roosevelt High School, and which was highlighted by stellar line play and -aw A, FOOTBALL TEAM.

I9-fl l OO'l'BALL SQUAD the work of Marlow and Prati in the backfield. 'l'he first quarter was marred by poor playing and fumbles on both sides. Ill the second quarter a blocked kick by tackles Widmayer and Talbot enabled the Raiders to begin a sustained drive which terminated when Bill Marlow crashed over from the four-yard line for the first score. Left-tackle Widmayer pulled out of the line to kick the extra point. A fighting Roosevelt team. in attempting to tie the score, advanced 'the ball to Western's fifteen-yard marker. This drive, however, was halted abruptly when Ilenry Prati intercepted a Roosevelt pass and sprinted ninety-five yards down the sidelines to score VVestern's second touchdown. VVidmayer again converted. 'l'lie third quarter produced no important action, but in the final period Roosevelt finally broke into the scoring column. Haines snapped up a neatly blocked Raider punt and sped un- touched from the midfield to score. VVestern secured the win, however, with a twenty-yard touchdown pass from Prati to Kuldell, and Widmayer ended VVestern's scoring with his third conversion of the day. Near the end of the contest, Roosevelt gained its second touch- down by a series of desperate passes. The game ended without further scoring and Western was off to a good start in the District competition. The following Friday an overconfident VVestern eleven met a surprisingly strong VVilson squad and barely escaped with a tie. The next week a dripping crowd watched Duke O'Connell glide through the muck to score the only touchdown of a Western victory over Eastern. It was an underdog VVestern team which entered Central's stadium on November 14 to play Central for the Western Division Cham- pionship and a chance at the inter-high title. It was an unusually warm day, and the dust which rose in clouds from the field added to the discomfort of the teams and the spectators. The Red Raiders kicked off, and on the second play Bill Goodman recovered a Viking fumble on Central's twenty-five yard stripe. In the following sequence of plays Goodman picked up fifteen yards for a first down, a pass from O'Connell drove over to Papanieolas was ruled complete because of interfereneeg and finally O'Conncll drove over the goal line from the three-yard line for the score. Clarence Kuldell converted, making Western's last point of the inter-high season. From then on the game was entirely Cen- tral's. In the second quarter a seventy-six yard drive culminated in a touchdown. In the second half, Kuldell passing from deep in his own territory, saw the ball intercepted by Horton on Central and brought back forty yards for a touchdown. Later in the game a Central punt went out of bounds on the Western six-inch line. Kuldell, in attempting to run the ball from behind the goal line, was smothered by several Central players. His fumble was recovered by Central for their last touchdown. After the Central defeat, Western was beaten badly by a heavy Atlantic City team in a post- season clash. This concluded the gridiron activities of the squad. In its last official func- tion, the football team maintained its tradi- tional practice of keeping the captaincy in the line by electing Iohn Gentile, a guard, captain of the 1942 team. He succeeds john Boaze, captain of the 1941 aggregation. The record of the team seems to indicate an unsuccessful year. However, when we remem- ber that a majority of the team was inexperi- enced, that the breaks of the games were often against them, and that they were handicapped by injuries, we can be proud that Western's Red Raiders remained in the thick of the inter- high competition until the last of the season. They deserve every Commendation for the fighting spirit and cooperation which were theirs throughout the season. Basketball Wr3s'rERN's Aeerusssrvrs basketball squad, over- coming handicaps arising from lack of size, ex- perience, and student support, ended its season after winning twelve games. The Raiders' smooth passing attack and excellent team-play were responsible for their superior record. The team worked with the precision of a well-oiled machine, and in comparatively few instances were their opponents able to break up this efficiency, either to match or to overcome Western's efforts. The outstanding game of the year, the first in the inter-high competition, was actually the fourth played and came after two victories and one defeat. It was the contest with Roosevelt, undoubtedly one of the strongest teams of the city. After allowing Roosevelt to gain a live- point lead in the first quarter, the Western quintet outscored her in each of the three remaining quarters. This diminished their lead and, at the final gun of a game packed with expert play and innumerable thrills, the score was tied 34-34. An overtime period ended after each team had scored two points, and in a second overtime period Roosevelt scored the basket which won the game. Not only did the thrills and suspense of the game make it one for the books, but the splendid Raider attack served notice on the District high schools that Western would be an outstanding contender for the city championship. We later proved our point. In the remaining scheduled games Western lost only to Wilson among the city teams and to Randolph-Macon among the others. Most of the games were characterized by decisive Western victories, line Raider cooperation, and fast play. In the later games the team received a substantial amount of support and won over- whelming victories. The Raiders were too confident of success in the first game of the championship play-offs. Central, a team which they had defeated earlier in the seson, beat them by piling up an early lead which Western was not able to overcome. The season's play was highlighted by the stellar defensive work of Don Cross together with the offensive brilliance of Iimmy Karas. Both were members of the 1940-41 varsity, and this season both were selected as first-string guards on the metropolitan All-Star team. Tony Murphy and Swanson Moore were outstanding for their rebound work under the baekboard. Charles and William Stephanson and Bernie Gittleson provided a large part of the speed which was so important to the team's success. Coach Moore's boys admirably overcame their lack of size by developing a passing attack, they overcame lack of experience by constant work, and they won student support by their fighting spirit. Only one of the nine letter- men, Swanson Moore, and the manager, Phillip Purtell, will return toiWestern next year. It is to be hoped and expected that Coach Moore will do as excellent work in the future as he has done in this and other years towards mold- 'gqnsu-an ll.-XSKl'I'l'l3.'Xl.I..

As the davs went bv, the squad was narrowed down, and a clear picture of the team began to form. 'l'he known strength of this team was con- centrated mainlv on the mound and in the inlicld. Five lcttermen sure of positions were Clarence Kuldell and Charlie llines, two star pitchers, Bob Coekrill, Ray Love, and lim Karas, the guards of second, short and third. 'l'o complete the inlicld Coach Nulvev had his choice of Don Cross, Clvdc McFarland, Brian Bell. or Phil Purtell as first baseman. Louis Beattv, jack XValkcr, and Alex Papanicolas were candidates for the catching assigmnent. 'l'he outfield looked good also, with llenrv Prati, Swanson hloorc and jim Malarkcv, a member of last vear's squad, likely to gain positions. As the XVesterner went to press, the men assured of places on the team were Ilines. Kuldell, Coekrill, Love, Karas, Malarkey, Cross, Papanicolas, Prati, Beatty, Parrott, and XValker. Duc to the strength of this aggregation, it was considered not at all unlikely that West- eru's 1942 baseball team would repeat the championship drive of its 1941 predecessor.

Root, its sponsor, and eleeted Russell Brooks, captain, and Crowell Squire. manager. Plans had also been made for an intragsqnad tournament to decide the rankings of the men. 'l'he Candidates for the team were Russell Brooks, Bob Steteklnh. Robert Krietzhurg, Reynolds Moore, Bill XV il- liams, Ioe McDonald, and Crowell Squire. Although these men were all good golfers, the loss of the stars of I9-Hs third plaee team made it doubtful if the golf team of 1942 would attain so high a standing. Tennis Duinm: RlARCII the tennis team, at a meeting with its sponsor. Mr. Struhle. decided to assign preliminary rankings to the team members. lt was expected that this list might be changed after the first few matches. 'l'he rankings were as follows: XVebster Gokey, Number lg Iulio Nunez, Number 2, 'l'ed Gregorie, Number '53 Ioe Nlelionald, Number -tg 'l'erry U'Brien. Number 5. A sixth member of the team was to be ehosen from several other eandidates. As the VVest- erner went to press, Manager Chuck XVilliam- son was negotiating for three or four matehes to he played with private sehools before the beginning of the regular season. Girls' Sports Tnr: INTEREST manifested by a large number of girls in each of the three major girls' sports, field hockey, basketball, and baseball, has been keen. Girls' sports have always been popular at Western, but this year an unusually large number of girls has supported them. During the early part of the fall semester, about twenty girls came out for Thursday hockey practice. Under the instruction of Miss Barnett, the most recent addition to VVestern's physical education department, the hockey enthusiasts spent the first few weeks learning the fundamentals of hockey and acquiring indi- vidual skill. When they had mastered the elementary principles and had become polished by actual practice, Miss Barnett divided them into the first and second teams, depending upon their abilities. In a very short time the teams began to show real speed and ability. Since interscholastic competition is not ad- vised, a playday was planned. All the high schools were invited to send a hockey team to Calvin Coolidge I-ligh School, where members were distributed into two teams made up of contestants from each school. On December 6th, Miss Barnett and Miss lflouchen, with two carloads of girls, drove over to Calvin Coolidge. Unfortunately it was a cold, foggy afternoon, but the playday was not postponed. At Coolidge, four teams were selected and two hours of hockey followed. In spite of the weather, the participants enjoyed the afternoon immensely. During a girls' assembly just before Christmas holiday, hockey emblems were awarded. Those who received W's were: Virginia Allen, Geraldine Fliege, Beverly Loomis, and Ianice Martin. Maureen Dagg, lean Fletcher, Verna Cough, Mildred Hill, and Mary Io Head received hockey emblems. Basketball was undoubtedly the most popular of the three sports. After the Christmas holi- days, practice was begun in earnest. Thirty girls were grouped into teams which competed every Wednesday and Thursday afternoon. For three months these teams met, and little by little each individual improved her playing. By the middle of March, relatively permanent HOCKEY TEAM. Mildred llill, Maureen Dagg, Beverly Loomis, Gerry Fliege, Pat VVidmann, Ianice Martin, Virginia Allen. BASKETBALL TEAM. First Row: Lorain See- grist, Pat Ennis, Olive Miller, Claire Bias, Mary Elizabeth Arnold, Louise Sellars. Second Row: Margaret Monteith, Maxine Tormahlen, Kather- ine Atema, Ann Moorman, lrcne Brumas, Ruth I-leld. teams were set up, and signals and plays were accented. Each team was composed of the girls who played on a certain day, and the teams competed for the month's championship. These monthly competitions continued until Easter, when the Varsity basketball team was chosen. Immediately after Easter, spring baseball practice began at the Held. Twice a week the baseball squad met, and as the weather became warmer and warmer, the teams improved. Near the close of the school intraemural competitions were held, and the varsity baseball team was named. It can really be said that the girls at Western have had a wonderful sport season. The teams were large and enthusiastic, and the rivalry was keen. From fall and hockey through spring and baseball girls' sports have carried on in Hue Western style. HMA , , v .

Member- ship in hloderns is open to junior and senior girls who have maintained a high average in l'lnglish and are interested in contemporary literature. 'l'imely and interesting fiction. non-fiction. and drama are reviewed at the meetings, and thc club as a whole discusses the subjects of each review. 'l'he outstanding books reported upon were Berlin Diary by NVilliam L. Shirer. 'l'he XYhite Clitts of Dover by .Nlice Duer Miller, and lfric Knight's 'A'l'his Above All, while the most interesting plays were NYatch on the Rhine and 'l'he XVookey. yXmong the unusual programs were the dis- cussion of propaganda movies and the Christ- mas meeting. at which Sue llume read a por- tion ot Dickens' Christmas Carol. .N feature ot the club which particularly appeals to hloderns is the serving of refresh- ments at each meeting. At this time hloderns engage in lively discussions, literary and other- wise, and plans are made for future meetings. A luncheon is given each year by hloderns during the last week of Iune. This luncheon is the final meeting of Moderns and is given in farewell to graduating members. 'l'he members are: Ann Iloover, Presidentg Mary Deimel.

Debate Club llllllil suns PITRPOSIC of the Debate Society, the oldest club in XVestern. is to develop in its members the ability to speak competently and confidently in public. Formal meetings of the club are held on alternate Tuesdays, while the intervening Tuesdays are devoted to informal work meetings. Until this year the club had no constitution. but tlns fall a committee was appointed to write and present one, which was unanimously adopted. A highlight of the year for the Debate Society was the George XVashington University DEB.'X'l'l'f CLUB. Sitting: Xlargaret hlonteith, Martha Recd, lfrank Mullin. Standing: Robert Stokes, Marian King, .Xrnold lidehnan. Debate Conference. which Otters VVashington Debate Clubs an opportunity to hear discus- sion on various issues of the debate question. Again VVestern assumed leadership of the con- ference: for Frank Mullin was elected chairman of the conference and Martha Reed, a member of the Resolutions Committee. 'l'he second purpose of the Debate Society is to perfect a varsity squad for the debate tournament in which the local schools com- pete. 'l'he varsity team was as follows: Afiirma- tive, Marian King and Arnold Edelman: Negative. Martha Reed and Frank Nlullin: Robert Stokes refuting for both sides, and Margaret Monteitli substituting. Un April 18, the team met at George VVash- ington University at nine o'cloek. Three times the coin was tossed: and three times Fate called upon the negative team to debate. By 3:30 it was all over. For the seventh time in nine years, VVestern's team was the undisputed champion of the District's debaters, having won every judges vote.

Constitution Club Tnosn s'i'UnnN'rs seeking self-expression in cur- rent events iind eager audiences in XVestern's Constitution Club, the sole purpose of the club being to study current problems. At each meeting an affirmative and a negative speaker discuss the merits of the subject of the day, and afterwards the question is open to general discussion. 'l'ypical of the topics battered back and forth by the opposing teams were: Should the United States form a supreme world gov- ernment after XVorld XVar ll? or perhaps: Should the United States have a unified Air Force? 'l'he questions are as often as not proved impractical, but the lively debate ensuing with each question is an excellent opportunity for the clear, analytical thinking so vital to America today.

Since a Latin American history course had been opened. it was determined that the club should consist of this class, and that the meetings should be held every week when the class time was the last period. 'l'hese meetings were devoted to dis- cussion talks pertinent to the countries of South America. 'l'he Pan-American Confer- ence at Ceorge XVashington University on December lS, l9-ll, gave the members of the club an excellent opportunity to hear experts discuss the subject of Pan-American relations. 'l'he Pau-Aiuerican Day assembly, staged each year by the club, is fast becoming a NN'estcrn tradition, and thc whole school has become interested in the ceremony of adding a new Latin American Hag each year to our growing collection. At this assembly hVCSlCTl1lS Latin American students are presented to the school and saluted with their national anthems. lfonndcd to stimulate interest in friendly rela- tionship between the United States and Latin America, thc Pan-American Club has aided in making VVestern students familiar with the customs, politics, and geography of the home- lands of our southern neighbors.

VVith this fact in mind. XVesterners. through membership in lin Avant, study French life, customs, and arts during the meetings, held in the library on the third 'l'uesday of the month. lin Avant has had an unusually interesting year. 'l'he members have been entertained by several French plays and talks on France. and many meetings have ended in singing the ever popular French folk ballads. Particularly amusing were the two plays, 'Chez le Doeteur and Au Clair dc la Lune. 'ALa Veille dc Noel was presented at the Christmas meeting by XVarren Graves, Louise Rubin, Sue Spear- man. Patricia Fletcher, Ralph lluschke, and Fric Nelson. 'l'he entire Christmas program was carried on with the spirit of French festivity which has so long prevailed in the French Club. FN .XX'.'XN'l'.

Delicious refreshments completed a program of eharades, games, and a very interest- ing talk by Iohn Stenger on an American- published Free-French newspaper. This year the club has taken a deep interest in the work of the Free-French Forever Committee, and it is the wish of the club that it might provide aid for Free France. 'l'his valuable organization, through the donations of its supporters, has been maintaining soup kitchens for French children. and through this committee. the French Club has been sending aid to France. lin Avant has also been knitting and rolling bandages for Free-France.

'l'he meetings, con- ducted in German, are open only to those who have completed three or more semesters of the language. 'l'he members of the club are entertained and enlightened by discussions of the literary history, famous authors, and beau- ties of Germany. Several members who have visited the country are well qualified to par- ticipate in these talks. 'l'his year the club had a German Christmas at vvhieh Nlorris Perrv talked on Silent Night and its interesting origin.

Such an achievement was the handiwork of the Editor-in-Chief and a few other zealous journal- ists recruited from prospects lined up in june. Since the initial copy served as an introductory acquaintance with the '4Breeze, it was not hard to enlist the interest of newcomers in thc subscription drive, and with traditional VVestern school spirit the goal was reached. XVCII over half the school's population re- sponded, and the next issue went to press. 'I'he staff at this point was more copious than capable. Soon a skeleton staff of twelve mem- bers, who form an intrinsic part of the student body, took up residence in room 307 under the expert guidance of the faculty adviser. The Business Section, under the supervision of another faculty member, is an extremely valu- able part. without which the periodical could not function. Its pre-season activity entails a great deal of hard work and little glory, but it is the mainspring of the entire machine of publication. It is not easy to publish a semi-monthly newspaper for student consumption without incurring a great many obstacles. The Editor- in-Chief and the Associate Editor must com- bine their efforts in order to produce results. The former goes through the most agonizing suffering on alternate weeks of the school year, for it is his business to set up the paper's form and see that it gets to the printer and back in XVESTISRN BREEZE.

It is the project of the latter to draft typists and proof readers, rewriters and headline writers. ln addition, that editor must be able to do those things himself, and at the same time double as a reporter on the News Staff. llard work with little thanks is the portion of those who make up the Breeze staff, brit the school clarion has often lent its influence to a nmnbcr of worthy causes in the school, such as the V ietory Book Campaign, the Red Cross Bundle Day, and the sale of Defense Stamps, for which we are indeed grateful.

The hope of the members of the hVI'lS'l'liRNlCR staff is that this book will be of value to all of VVcsterng but to the seniors, particularly, they wish to present the year so that its memories will be as fresh ten years hence as today. 'l'he yearbook staff is chosen on the basis of personal qualifications and scholastic merit. 'l'he Editor, Associate Editor, and Business Manager are selected in Iune by the outgoing staff and its faculty adviser, but the remainder of the stall is not appointed until the following September. This group of seniors forms the special section lOl, and there, as a student governed activity, it performs the many duties necessary to the production of a yearbook.

Chemistry Club 'llllli iullwosi-1 of the science clubs has always been to give stimulus to those who are inter- ested enougli to delve more deeply into science after regular class hours. 'l'his year, however. the Chemistry Club enjoys the distinction of being the only active science club. 'l'o be eligible for membership, one must have taken chemistry or must be studying it at the present time. 'l'his year various committees have been ap- pointed whose duties are to plan novel pro- grams for each meeting from a list of activities furnished by Mr. Struble. Some of the experi- ments which have been performed have ex- tremely interesting titles, such as 'l'he Restless Nloth Ball, A Magic Powder. and From XVhiskey to VVater. Others with more pro- saic names might be mentioned also, such as hIlcctroplating and Liquid Air. 'l'hese experiments are performed at the club's regu- lar meetings, which are held every other XVed- iiesday. An extremely interesting guest of the Chem- istry Club was Mr. Gapen, of the Department of Agriculture, who gave a lecture on plastics. Several weeks later, the club went to the Capi- tal Ink Company to study the process of ink- making, 'l'he Chemistry Club has made sev- eral other trips interesting to students of chem- istry, and under the skillful guidance of Mr. Struble it has enjoyed a most successful year.
