Blazing new trails, broadening others, the Pioneer spirit forged ahead. This spirit showed in most everything the Pioneers did. lt was contagious to the thousands of people who sat in the coliseum or lined New York City's parade route. QW W f 0 'Going Places' 5 Pridebuilders Important in Football Wins Keeping up with the football team that fought its way to the CIF finals was a full-time job for the Pioneer 'pridebuilders' - the mascots, cheerleaders, songleaders and members of the Pep Club, who worked to keep the school spirit at its height. One symbol of this pride, the Bell, was displayed at all the games. By defeating the Colonists, the Pioneers retained the Bell for anotheryear. Because the Bell symbolized that 'go-ahead' pride, it was placed, most appropriately, on wheels. 6 'Going Places' S Going Places' 7 Band and Drill Team Carried Spirit in New York City Parade and Visitation to Washington, DC For Westerns Pioneer Band and Silhouette Drill Team, 3,000 miles isn't too far to go and 569,000 isn't too much to raise to appear in a E parade. At least, if it is the Nlacy's I Thanksgiving Day Parade. gxcfs D- 1 W E S T E R l N This Year the Band and Drill Team flew to New York to appear in the B lVlacy's Parade and to do a little sight Q seeing around town, then spent the 6 next three days touring Washington g D.C.

'npr 'M 9 Curriculum Prepared Pioneers for Future 10 'Going Places' During a day at Western, there were many signs to indicate that the Pioneers were alert and well-informed. The activity, the constant planning for going places in thefuture. The counseling office offered facts and aid in career plan- ning. The attendence office kept records of students classes which could be re- ferred to when the student was ready to delve into his future. Western offered a curriculum that had a definite purpose, got students moving, and prepared them for the chal- lenges ofthefuture. f ',.f. .K ,,,, is Y , fffff T 'fE - X '--' 'i'f53i Tif' ' . 5 , K .

The Big Little Sister Picnic triggered an avalanche ot activities, which included the traditional 'Beat Anaheim Week' and Homecoming. During 'Beat Anaheim Week' the fate of the Colonist players was successfully de- picted by mockery and campus demon- strations for Western beat Anaheim, 17-15. lronically, the Pioneers also beat the Colonistsinthe CIF Playoffs. Homecoming heralded the return of many alumni, cheerleaders and songleaders- and with them extra spirit to bring about a win over Newport.

Every athlete was constantly bettering him or herself to this task, while showing pride in sportsmanship. An example of Pioneer pride in achiev- ing was the football team. After a 9-O season, the Pioneers entered the CIF playoffs, where they were only defeated in the finals-at the Los Angeles lVle- morial Colesium by St. Paul, 23-27.

These students had one com- mon bond, they were a part of a multi faceted organization. Whether the students knew it or not, they all had something to do with the Pioneer pride and spirit that made excellence a part of their lives in academics, athletics and activities. In essence, the Pioneers were destined to be 'Going Places'. I H 'Going Places' 17 vw f A K 5 f f- .. ' .. ,wi : 1 pc' ag I 'WY EY: Qu f x xxx X EQ Q S S5 :iw 2 A y V, 3. WWW4 5 ,....,,M,.4, , W.

Progress is synonomous with the 1973 Board of Trust- ees. After so many years of being housed in so many dif- ferent locations, the AUHSD offices are finally under one big roof-thanks to the 1973 Board of Trustees. On February 27, 1973, the Anaheim Union High School District Education Center was officially opened on Crescent Way near the Santa Ana Freeway. The Educa- tion Center was built in the old Fed Mart building under three acres of roof. For the first time in the history of the district, every department is now in one central location, making the communication better than ever before. The Center will house the Gilbert Continuation School, warehouses, instructional services, shops, graphic arts, business, purchasing and the three superintend- ents's offices. Heading the Board of Trustees was Mr. Robert Bark, president. His colleagues were Dr. Dean H. Pritchett, clerkg and Mr. John Barton, Mr. Edward M. Hartnell, and Mr. James P. Bonnell. These men were elected be- cause of their ability to responsibly take care of educa- tion in the secondary schools of the AUHSD. A determining factor in how well the school system is administered is the fact that the men of the adminis- tration and the Board of Trustees will follow through with every thing that comes before them. Something not every school system is endowed with. Being responsible for 30 students in a classroom is difficult, supervising about 2,500 students every day in the junior and senior high schools is much more exten- sive. However, being responsible for 16 junior high schools, nine high schools and one speciality school, which represented more than 40,000 students and over 1,000 faculty members, and more than 500 classified personnel has been a tremendous challenge. The Board of Trustees and the AUHSD administra- tion met this challenge. Administration 21 New Principal Named WHS Leader for 1972-73 Traditions at Western are many, but the one tradition most impor- tant was the high standards of ed- ucation. This tradition was kept this year by Westhi's new princi- pal Mr. Verne Horton. Along with Nlr. Horton, the assist- ant principals Mr. Anthony Ortega, lVlr. Herb Roesener, and Mr. Erland Eberhard all worked as a single unit to keep Western at its best. Another unit at Western were the counselors. The typical description of a coun- selor is a person who helps stu- dents plan for their future. But not so typical were Western's counselors, who did much more. They took interest in the students themselves and gave help in solv- ing their problems, whether it be at home, school, or elsewhere Another person who helped to make Western go places was Mr. Charles Costello, Westhi's Direc- tor of Activities. 4 Mr. Horton assumed his responsibilities ' .wL..st?.s :JT 3.12: H-,fm'flfwf' N5 f,.L ffl 3 lMflW W A 2 .f 2 . ,. . ., T fx? 7, ' -1 ' . - A ,S , f - 22.132 rif f ., ,A fv K , el-,lt ,V y ,Z f l f ,-V!

Pencils. Clanking coins. Ringing registers and busy brooms depict the Classified Personnel of Western during 1972-73. Secretaries were the organizational hand of the school. Keeping files of students was a full day's work, but there were other duties also. Every person made a contribution in his own way. The contribution that the cafeteria staff made was truly unique. It was not just preparing food but helping students. Mr. Rosmond Howery, cafeteria manager for 15 years, worked her last shift-as she retired following the 1972-73 year. She dedicated herself to the stu- dents of Western unselfishly. No doubt she will be missed by future generation of students. The custodians kept mowing their way through the problems of upkeep and refurbishing to earn re- spect of all.

Individual Help Was Teacher's Goal To make classtime more interesting and more productive, than the average, run-of-the-mill classroom setting, a teacher has to be of special quality. This special quality is the ability to use visual aids, such as films, and help not only the class but the individual aswell. Drawing diagrams on the board, giving individual attention to students, and getting involved with students are the keys that unlock the door to a good teacher. Western had these teachers.

Teachers relaxed and enjoyed themselves in the many school sponsered ac- tivities that were scheduled throughout the year. An example of the faculty's participation was the Varsity-Faculty Waterpolo Game. lt proved to be a lot of fun for everyone. And the large turn out of teachers at Western's football games proved the Pioneer Spirit of Western's Faculty.

That's typical of the Do it, Do it, Alright, Alright, Go! atti- tude at Western. lf this serious attitude vvasn't coupled with the innate desire to make class a more interesting experience, the teach- ers would be as bored as the students.

Our fac- ulty is 3-dimensional-they have many facets. This proves that Western's faculty of 1973 truly was the best.

Advanced Towards Maturity Going Places, this year's yearbook theme certainly reflected the drive and enthusiasm of this years Senior class. The elected leaders in their last year at Western N-W High were, George Campnoni-President, Lynette Allen-Vice-President, Sandy Novy-Secretary, and Ron Takai-Treasurer. These people did the best they could in planning the activities and events for the class of '73's Senior year. In scholastic aim, sports, and extra-curricular activi- ties, the class of '73 surged forward and always came out number one. ln all their three years at Western, the people in the Senior Class showed their individuality in all that they did. From unknowledgeable sophomores to experienced Seniors, the '73 class taught and were taught skills that would help them after the long- awaited for Graduation. lt might not mean much to some, but to the majority, graduation meant a goal that they had worked for through seemingly useless and unnecessary years of schooling. Senior 39 Classrooms Had Different Uses All types of instruction were offered by the faculty in order to give variety and a total training. Speech students used the classroom students as an audience for presenting their speeches. Sociology had a relaxed atmosphere with sofas and reclining chairs that gave impetus to casualness. Industrial arts students used machines for maximum efficiency. 40 Seniors SUSAN ABARA Girls' League ROBERT ACOSTA Football, Student Cour cll, Clubs-Varsity, Ocea and Surfing I ttrst ssrs as tfs r - x rstf I ,.,, kk.Vk K Q gi lkVt.. . - I sso't '- :, I ' if GREGORY ADAMS CHARLES AGUILAR TIMOTHY AIKEN Football Football Wrestling, Guitar Cl il ANTHONY ALAMIA GILBERT ALBA Stage Band, Electronics Track Club MICHAEL ALCORN Boys' League ALDRICH League ALLISON League CORBY ALLEN LYNETTE ALLEN Girls' League Senior Class v-p, Math Club, Mecha SHARON ALLISON DAVID ALTON Drill Team.

Their mode of dress varied from long old-fashion dresses to mini skirts. Either way, they personified beauty. On any given day, the co-eds were a bevy of fash- ions. However, the many different styles of dress gave way to Western attire at athletic games or on trips to New York City and Washington, D.C. Many of the fashions were made in the home economic classes by girls who had designs to be clothing specialists or high-fashion models. In essence, Westhi girls were style setters. f' UN DANIEL BAKER NANCY BALES ROXANNE BARBER EDWARD BARBOSA Band Girls League CSF Pioneer Press Boys' League ONA BARG NANCY BARKER PAMELA BARKER CINDY BARNARD Girls League CSF Pep Club Girls League Girls' League Seniors 43 Contests, sales were fun things Contests were an integral part of cam- pus life.

The noon hiatus also represented the terminal part of the day for the many students who were on minimum day. More times than not, these students spent the lunch hour on campus and then left for afternoon jobs or college courses at Cypress College. Noon Hour. lt meant many things to many people.

This adage was proven during Homecoming ceremonies. Using cars of the 1930 vintage, the Queen and her court were escorted to and from the halftime show-giving the older fans a bit of nostalgic mem- oriesj In fact, the Homecoming theme was Golden Nostalgia.

Located between the cafeteria and the library, the Senior Tree had a long history. Periodically, the Seniors would plant a tree in the Senior Circle to replace the old tree. Each and every student could claim some credit for the tree-regardless if he or she was an underclassmen. As a Sopho- more, the student came to realize that the tree would become his symbol of the future.

Team sports had their place on the a- genda, but students were given the op- portunity to learn an individual sport for future use. Team sports leave most students early and the individual sports take over after the student graduates, from high school or college. Girls kept their trim figures by playing basketball.

Attending Western was not all work and no play, One of the most salient points of being a Pioneer was the friendliness of its students and faculty, and the non curricular. Lasting friendships were made by the gab tests that took place on campus. A little smile, a little conversation was all that was needed to portray a true Pioneer. The Student Park, the lunch area tables and even the football stadium were scenes of some of the most memorable times for any Pioneer.

Beat Anaheim Week informed the stu- dents that the Bell was the property of the Pioneers because of Western's grid win over the Colonists. The Student Park tree was used for many a sign and was the focal point of several demonstrations. Last but not least, friendly pets were students for a day.

The Student Park, erected more three years ago was the scene of many memorable moments of frivolity as stu- dents used the Park for relaxation, or listened to debates. Rock concerts, guitar music floated through the Park, as well as open forum debates on the most recent issues. The Student Park served as a rally point for students away from the classroom. The green grass made the surroundings beautiful and attractive for human com- munication-sights or sounds.

And Western had its share- permanent and temporary. From lectures to independent study, the classrooms served the students well. Each classroom had its distinctive atmosphere. Stoves in one, books in another. But all had a common denominator-students willing to learn, the goof offs and the in- betweens. Classroom instruction became less a lec- ture environment and more of student ori- ented participation. Home Economics class was Westhi's restaurant.

This was the last time that many Seniors would suit up for a sport under the aegis of Western High School. In many ways, it was sad but the many Seniors could look back at pleasant memories running against the strong winds or trying to belt the ball over Western avenue.

Many events were held in the cafe- teria late at night that were sponsored by the French Club, Spanish Club or the Asian Awareness Club. However, football was still king of the night circuit.

Skills were hones in such business edu- cation courses as typing. Boys chef and library research were other ways of developing skillsfor thefuture. Long, tedious hours were spent on ac- quiring these skills.

Officers were elected in the spring of 1972 in order to get a jump on this year's activities. The presi- dent was Mimi Oberlee, the Vice-President was Doreen Lore, the Secretary was Chris Noroz, and the Treasurer was Karen Petrilla. The Junior Class Council under the liberated leader- ship of Mimi Oberlee, Western's first female mascot, planned and executed activities tradionnally those of the Junior class. The Junior-Senior Prom, with theme of Knights in White Satin, came off with a regal air. To finance the Prom, the Juniors had a car rally. For the Juniors the proud day when they received their class rings couIdn't come too soon. The motto was Dare to be Wize, which gave the Juniors inspiration for the years ahead. The Juniors as a class, more than 800 strong, repre- sented one of Western's largest classes. With this large number came a lot of spirit to back Western. Juniors participated in many events, preparing themselves for eventual leadership as Seniors. - S Juniors 105 For a junior a class ring is numerous things-a tradition, a symbol of Western, a bit of snobbery. These may all be true of some students and for others, only some be true. No matter which category, to everyone a class ring is a source of pride. Every Junior wears his or her class ring with assurance. With the class theme biding them to dare to be wize , the Juniors march on to great- er heights in their stay at Western. These Juniors will soon walk through the port- als of time into another era, they will be Seniors at Western.

But the majority had taken roads 5 that were rough and difficult and at many times, confusing and frus- trating. For them education was a challenge. Perhaps the most important aspect of high school life was that security would be replaced by the uncertainty of future years. Now new news Park band captures interest.

The approval of Assembly Bill 293 on July 20, 1971, created the ne- cessity for school districts throughout California to initiate new evaluation procedures of teachers through the Stull Bill. The Stull Bill came into existance during 1972-73 with a new line of procedures. However, Western's gifted and dedicated staff has always been accountable to the student, and in 1972-73, they were no exception. .,,. at 1 pin um, W it? gif .Ju 1 .,,, , , X ,.-1 'ix K Smith, Michael Smith, Michael Smith Michael Sollars, Robin Sorensen.

Juniors 121 Sophomores Entered Western With True 'ioneer Pride Spirit and Enthusiasm The sophomores started out their high school career by getting down to business and electing class offi- cers. After many vigorous and colorful election cam- paigns, the results were Art Agapinan-president, Gary Kiyohara-Vice president, Jeff Ribman-treas- urer, and Donna Christensen-secretary. The sophomores began showing enthusiasm by selling peanuts to build up the class treasury. The next show of ambition and school spirit came at Christmas time when the Class of 75 sold everyone's favorite: Christ- mas candy canes. Then these ambitious newcomers to Western ended up by sponsoring a Sadie Hawkins Day Dance for a well rounded first year of high school. iw 1 Sophomores 123 Orientation Led to Sophomore Involvement The Sophomore Class was introduced to ways and traditions of Western with an ori- entation day. The newcomers lost very little time in par- ticipating inthe varied activities. Some be- came cheerleaders on the junior varsity and others marched to the beat of the Drill Team. Others were involved in decorating the campustorvariousevents. Still others, pursued an academic career. CENTER PANEL ROW 1: Susan Ace- vedo. Howard Acosta, Roy Acosta, Robert Adamson-Mary Adling.

The course was the envy of all Sopho- mores, because they knew in the end that freedom in the form of a car was their reward. The simulators were the first step to obtaining a drivers permits. After work with the simulators, the older students were given behind the wheel instruction.

Possibly the biggest change for the entering students was the long lines of lockers. Sharing a locker with a total stranger was to some degree a new experience. In the hallways and in the classroom.

Alumni and present Pioneers joined together in a display of school spirit to en- courage Western in its 14-10 win over New- port Harbor. Ms. Karen Cole was crowned Homecoming Queen in elaborate halftime ceremonies at which the preceeding Queen Ms. Diane Martinez relinquished her title. Halftime entertainment was performed by the Pioneer Band and Silhouette Drill Team. Coronation ceremonies depicted the Golden Nostalgia theme when Queen Karen and her princesses were escorted to midfield in cars of 1930 vintage. The princesses were Ms. Ann Powers, Ms. Penny Wald, Ms. Rose Madrid, Ms. Debbie Chodkowski. The Queen's escort was Scott Riggs. The week preceeding Western's 13th annual Homecoming celebration was filled with exciting activities of a keyed-up student body. The campus was momentarily changed from a place of learning to that of people charged up anticipatingthis event. Tuesday night of that late November week, the traditional presentation of the Ladies- in-Waiting from clubs on campus was per- formed. Homecoming was concluded Friday night at the dance presided over by Queen Karen and her Court.

Western's Songleaders began their practice during summer vacation. Besides divising and rehearsing rountines during vacation, they attended Song-Cheer- leading camp in San Diego which they won several rib- bons for excellence. Accompanied by the Pionner band, they performed intricate and artistic rountines at pep assembiles and games. Many rigourous hours of practice helped to perfecttheir skills. The pepsters donated many laborious after-school hours painting posters, selling ribbions, and attend- ing all atheleic events. 1 I ,353 'T' Songleaders modeling one of their many uni- forms. f' my fm ffl Head Songleader Marilyn Wibert looks on with satis- faction as Pioneer band and drill team performs.

Western's Pioneer Band and Drill team performed on numerous occasions and the Cheer and Song leaders added skits and routines. Other Academic assemblies included a program pres- ented by George Sharp, who hypnotized several stu- dents. Early in February students from Fullerton J.C. presented a gymnastics demonstration.

Cheerleaders and Mascots Added Pep For the first time in the history of Western High School, there were Junior Varsity Cheerleaders. They helped out leading cheering at all sophomore and JV athletic events. Mary Anne Beesely served as head J.V. cheerleader. Through their combined time and effort, Westhi students were en- tertained and inspired throughout the year. The role of mascot is traditionally filled by one boy, but this year the committee of interviewers decide on adding a fe- male. Mimi Oberlee is Westerns first girl mascot. The Buck- skin outfit this year was filled by 5'1O Blond senior Alan Walker. The two mascots attended Football games and other school activities spreading Pride and Spirit.

Westhi couples spent the night dancing to the band HSASSYT Mr. Walt Fenimore, from the custodial staff, was the personification of that jolly character Santa Claus. An outstanding effort was made by Westhi Girls' and Boys' League, who sponsored this annual winter formal.

Publications 167 Band and Drill Team's Dream Was Realized The Western Pioneer Band and Silhouette Drill Team had a full and busy schedule this school year. They per- formed half-time shows at all Western home football games. The Band and Drill Team was in the Buena Park Sil- verado Days Parade, the Anaheim Holloween Parade, Santa Monica Parade, AUHSD Band and Drill Team Spectacular at Anaheim Stadium. Their shows included such songs as the theme from Shaft, Moving Right Along, Beginnings, Proud Mary, and the Theme from Cades County . Pioneer Band and Drill Team al- so participated in the Los Altos half-time competi- tion in November. As usual they stole the show as the band won the sweepstakes award for putting on the best show of the bands that competed. The Drill team won first place for its performance in the show and the Band was also given awards for the best musical per- formance and for the best overall effect. The Western High School Band and Drill Team's dream became a reality on November 21 when they left for New York and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, from L.A. International airport. The Band and Drill team members and their chaperones traveled aboard a 747 and a DC10. After 4 hours of flight they landed in New York city and almost immediately left for the United Nations building. Everyone in the Western group arose at 4 am Thanksgiving morning and the Band and Drill Team quickly put on their uniforms and performed before the NBC cameras in a practice run of the parade. The parade started at 9 am and ended about 1 pm-all of ittelevised nationally on NBC. The entire group left New York Friday morning and headed for Washington D.C. and stopped in Philadel- phia. After touring Washington for 2 days they left for home late Sunday night, leaving behind an experi- ence that will not be forgotten. 168 Band 81 Drill Team DRILL TEAM-K.Alkire, S.AlIison, T.Baginski, B.Bains, D.Baird, D.Ball T.Bardwell, T.Benbow, E.Bernal, D.Blackburn, M.Bowes, C,Brewer, D Capezzuto, D.Carr, S.Crist, T.Ditch, A,Eldridge, K.Ethans, K.Faba- nich, J.Feucnt, M.Foster, M.Givens, C.Gunderson, P.l-lall, T.Hanks, K Harris, L.Harvey, S.Hoag, A.House, D.Hovey, T.Hull, C.l-lurnphrey, T lnman, B.Jarnagin, P.Johnson, T.Kaczorowski, G.Kreissing, T.Kurp- juweit, I.Landry, V.Lease, J.Lindskog, T.Lissow, G.Locke, R.Lowen berg, G.Lynn, S.Magruder, J.Lloyd.

With the help of a special Band and Drill Booster club, the two organization raised the 75,000 needed for the trip, hired a 747!DC 10 and took off on a five day journey that took them from California to New York and Wash- ington D.C.

The many hours of laborious work are never acknowledged by the student body, but hard work and time spent pay off in the final analysis. And so, Western can boast the it has the best marching Band and Drill Team in all of Southern California. The Pioneer Band and Drill Team participation at Western's halftimes shows, pep rallies and assemblies were perhaps one of the remem- bered of their activities. ., ,,...,.. 4 Q ' by ' E, kb I, I f xx W...

He and the rest of AFS, under the supervision of Mrs. Wheeler, put on a 96 hour Volleyball Marathon. Half of the pledges and donations went to AFS, for financing foreign exchange students, and the other half went to the March of Dimes. CSF, the club for academic minded students, was one of the largest clubs on campus. It gave special recog- nition to Seniors graduating with academic honors. The co-supervisors were Miss Cook and Mrs. Wheaton. NFL, Western's speech and debate teams, talked Western into the ranks of the top schools in this category.

During his term of office, Alan stressed the importance of a free voice in student affairs and was instrumental in guaranteeing these rights to students through the Cabinet, the Student Advisory board, Anaheim Youth Council, and the Calif. Association of Stu- dent Councils.

Pioneers Capture Sunset League Crown for i 53 5 ZA 53 Z first Time, Lose CIF Title in Final Game The 1972 Pioneer Varsity football team may have arrived at the same conclusion its 1971 predecessor did-the role of CIF 4-A runner-up-but by no means was the 1972 regular season a replay of that of a year ago. The 1972 Western football season was un-expected, to say the least. Certainly the Pioneers achieved the Sunset League championship for the first time ever and entered the CIF finals, as was predicted, but the way Western went about it surprised. inspired, and excited those who witnessed it. After breezing past Costa Mesa C34-OJ in their first game, the Pioneers set the trend for the remainder of the season by seeking out a 27-21 victory past Nlillikan in the pre-season finale. The Sunset League opener was a hard-fought 14-6 win over Santa Ana, which was followed by conquests of weak Nlarina C30-OD and Loara C28-35 teams. The remainder of Western's grid season repeated itself as the Pioneers, coached by Jim Everett, parlayed weekly nail-biters into the CIF finals. ln following weeks, the Everett men took on Newport Harbor C14-123. Westminster Q28-195, Anaheim C16-77 and Huntington Beach. C12-Oh. The CIF playoffs opened with Western beating Servite C29-213, enabling the Pioneers to meet and beat Lake- wood C21-145, eke out a 15-14 win over Anaheim and succumb to St. Paul Q29-249 in the final at the Los Angeles Colesium. Although the Pioneers lost the CIF title, the season was a success, even if one notices the Pioneers double win over Anaheim, the first time ever in the cross town rivalry. In the St. Paul championship game, the Pioneers were without the services of Allen Osbon, all Sunset League halfback and the limited action by Gary Caskey, all- Orange County halfback. Both stars were crippled in the Anaheim game. In retrospect, the Pioneers were champions of the Sunset League and in the hearts of thousands of foot- ball fans.

Head coach Jim Everett, himself no stranger to a success- ful season, directed the over-all operational plans, while Gary Gans, Terry Hennigan, Jerry Shigekawa, Robert Fieldhouse and Terry Campbell survived the championship bid as top assist- ants. The 12-1 season was the apex of Everett's tenure as Western's top strategist. During the 1971 season, the Pioneers compiled a 12-2 mark. Everett's four-year won-lost record came to a respectable 32-14, including two years ofCIF playoffs. l The football team is welcomed onto the field by the Pioneer Cheerleaders. Football 193 Varsity Teamed With JV'S in an Outstanding Season In the midst of all the fervor over suc- cess of the Pioneer varsity gridders, little was said of the JV squad. The Pioneer red shirts rose and shone early Saturday morns and Mon- day afternoons to perform before sparse crowds. Yet, day in and day out, these gallant, glory-less atheletes gave their varsity counterparts stiff com- petition during practices.

Football 195 L , Gary Caskey held in the middle of St. Paul defense. Football is a many faceted sport. For a team to be a contender and possess the Pioneer spirit there is needed a double platoon of players. Defense backs are needed to stop the onrushing opponents steam- roller. Tackles and guards are the mainstay of any line. If the line is strong in the tackle and guard posts, the backfielders have a clear path to the goaline and ta me. Very seldom are the defensive backs and lineman acknowledged for their superior work that opens the holes for touchdowns and vic- tories. 196 Football ,,g,., A, ,,,, I Q rrrrl T T ry , ' 4 I V,,, QF' rr- .ssr 'Fi tii ,.q.

Coming in to a new school and being confronted by new coaches, the sophomores worked endlessly to make a title for themselves at West- ern. Although the lack of experience hindered a chance of taking the title they had hoped for, but THE biggest thing the soph. team would hope for now was to return and play for J.V. and Varsity football in '74, i, ae l Sophomore Football TOP ROW, L.Fisher, S,Wolfe, J.Kent, T.BlackweIl, T.Gartner, F.Civitano, B.Figerell, M.Hinton, G.Ward, D.Johnson, L.Ward, B.Monroe, K.Reilly, K.Wayne, B.Mueller, J.Luna, lVl.Bailey, W.Torrez, M.Jackson.

The team finished with a 4-19 overall record. Even though Coach Marv Blemker was dis- appointed in the season's scores, he felt that Varsity and Junior Varsity gained experience and ability. They were not incapable, the years' competition was unusually and expectedly strong. The teams were endowed with ball handling ability and skill in the backcourt. Jeff Tittel- fitz and Doug Triebess contributed early in the game with their talents for sinking baskets. Mark Kretz and Frank Christiansen made the most of the coach's strategy on the courts.

Coach Wil- ton moved on to Cypress High School. The squad devoted many long ex- hausting hours of work-outs in the weight room, treks across the field, and encountered many schools dur- ing a successful season that ended with the Pioneers registering a 18-0 record. Essentially the coaching played a big part in the ,team's success, but the squad possessed a winning spirit and capable grapplers. Jeff Wilton's performance in league competition afforded him the opportunity to enter the CIF preliminaries. He was eliminated in thefinals.

He didn't know what to expect at the seasons outsets. The Pioneers hitting-wise had the type of year that would normally lead a team to a league title. However, pitch and defense both lacked and thus the teams record suffered. All told Western's attack was just out-numbered, which made for a not so good, not so bad season and another also close to finish in the Sunset League race. s Q. I Bbw K 'X mf Sl 5 K ..,.
