H. HOLLOWAY Principal As we near the end of another successful year of activities, the student body wishes to express its most sincere gratitude to Mr. Holloway, the ever friendly head of all the activities in West- port. It is he who has the final word on all studies, club activities, and other school affairs. It is he who guides students in their dif- ficulties, scholastic or otherwise, who always has a kind or cheery word for everyone. It is he who confers Westport's scholastic honors upon those who have earned them, and encourages the rest of the student body to seek them. The thousand and one other things he superintends make him invaluable to Westport. It is the sincere hope of everyone in Westport that Mr. Hollo- way will continue to head our school, in work and in play, for many, many years. 32 RALPH S. HARRIS Vice-Principal Ably assisting Mr. Holloway is our capable vice-principal. Mr. Harris assumed this position late last year after the death of Mr. Miller, and he has already won the confidence and admira- tion of our students. Along with his numerous office duties, Mr. Harris teaches psychology and very skillfully puts his knowledge of this subject into practical use to win the friendship of the pupils, the faculty, and the parents. His opinions are respected and highly valued by faculty members, and he has proved himself to be understanding and helpful to those who come to him for aid in solving their various problems. Mr. Harris is a hard, earnest worker, and Westport can look forward to many happy years with hiin as the co-pilot of our school's activities. 33 E512 s iii' 2 if --Mr' L lX'Q L. ,W 'uf .--.. , EQ 'HPF X.

May I go home?', Is Mr. Holloway busy?,' May I use the tele- phone? Thus passes the day for the office staff. Not only do they listen to all of the thousand and one questions which they encounter every day, but they actually know and give all the answers! They patiently and cheerfully answer all queries and send each questioner away satisfied not only with the answer, but with the courtesy and un- derstanding manner in which it is offered. Besides doing all this: Miss I-Iuhn and Miss Trogdon keep records on all classes, subjects, student personnel, scholastic ratings, attendance and tardy records, and all sorts of other records, permanent and temporary. They send information about seniors CLASSES I The most important purpose of this portion of our book is to provide a souvenir of high school classes for later years when the student of today is out in the world of business. Then, he will wish to recall his high school days, and he will turn to this section of the 1940 Herald to aid in his reminiscence. ' The photographers of the Herald Staff have visited many classrooms and, to the best of their ability, have brought to you, the reader, a pic- torial representation of the activities which take place in those classrooms every day. Along with the actual pictures are word-pictures designed to develop and portray more fully the various school departments. A sincere effort has been made to show all of the departments in action, but it was Margaret E. McCaul Counselor, Psychology Geometry Margaret Hubn Registrar jane Trogdou Clerk to colleges. They answer telephone calls, summon people to the office and act as secretaries to Mr. Holloway and Mr. Harris. When you're undecided about which course to take, the number of credits you need to gradu- ate, how to get in this or that subject, or what college to attend next year, where do you go and whom do you consult? Why, you go to the little office behind Mr. Holloway's and visit Miss McCaul, the school counselor. She is always ready to help the troubled student who comes to seek advice from her on any of a hundred or so sub- jects. Her kind demeanor and expert advice have aided many a student in making the right de- cision concerning his school course. ACTIO found impossible to visit every classroom. As you turn the various pages that follow, try to imagine yourself a member of the particular class you are observing. In looking over these pictures, we hope that you will also recall your own classes and the work that you have done in them similar to that ,portrayed in the pictures presented herein. Then you will appreciate the work of the intruc- tor in developing his course, and you will realize the enjoyment that you have felt in working with your instructor and your fellow students. This section should prove of value, not only in provoking memories, but in showing the out- side public what occurs in Westport's classrooms and in helping the undergraduate select his course of study. THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT The English Department in Westport has al- ways been known for its high standards. Former Wfestport students, now in college, often express their gratitude for the excellent training they received in English while in our high school. The courses offered in English are varied in subject matter. Three years are required for grad- uationg a fourth year is offered, but not required. In the freshman year and in the first half of the sophomore year, grammar and composition work are the main points stressed. In addition to this work either Twelfth Night or Ivanhoe is studied in the freshman year. An interesting A senior English class i -' ' studying English liter- aturc.

After a semester of grammar and composition, the juniors spend their second semester in reading five or six books representing all phases of literature-poetry, essays, drama, biography, short stories, and the novel. Several of the books have been changed this year, and a new system has been inaugurated whereby the school purchases these books and the students rent them for a nominal sum. An in- tensive study of the novel and of English litera- ture occupies the time of those enrolled in senior English. 1 I 1 U 'w igs V ' V LH Top row, left fo right-Billie jo Kelley, Dorothy Mallett, Mr. Booth, Helen Frischer, Deaun Wiggins, Betty Moore, Barbara Boyer, Mr. Booth, Bill Petrie. THE WESTPORT CRIER Seniors enrolled in newswriting comprise the editorial staff of the Westport Crier. Superior grades in English, adaptability, and a willingness to perform a variety of special duties are the chief requirements for admission to the class. Through the columns of the school paper the members of the staff strive to give an accurate and interesting portrayal of the varied activities of the student body. The Crier preserves vig- orously a policy of giving real news precedence over everything else and definitely refuses to play up mere personalities and unimportant events. The class follows a scheduled plan of work. Besides covering his special assignments, each pupil writes editorials, feature articles, brevities, Boifom row-Helen Vassiliades, Adele Hutterer, Dorothy Cox, George Strosnider, Calvin Weiss, Walter Root, James A. Smith, Elinore Owen. and items for the Clock,' column. The selling of space in the paper to advertisers is an impor- tant part in the journalism course. A textbook and exchange papers from all parts of the country furnish material for the study of the style and technique employed in various types of news- writing. The Crier Staff this year was composed of Adele Hutterer, Helen Vassiliades, Dorothy Cox, George Strosnider, Calvin Weiss, Walter Root, James A. Smith, Elinore Owen, Billie Jo Kelley, Dorothy Mallett, Helen Frischer, Deaun Wig- gins, Betty Moore, Bill Petrie, and Barbara Boyer. Definite staff positions were not announced be- cause no individual has worked at one specific job all year. MATHEMATICS AND SOCTAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENTS XVhile only one year of mathematics is required for graduation, four years are offered to the Westport student. Applied mathematics and first year algebra are offered during the freshman year. Geometry may be taken following one year of algebra. Second year algebra is studied in the third year, with trigonometry and solid geometry offered to the fourth year student. A wide range of study is allowed the student in history. Four years of this subject are offered. The Story of Civilization is a course in world liistory from the time of the stone age till the present. American history, offered in the junior and senior years, is the story of the development of the United States as a nation from the pioneer days in the British colonies until today, when it stands as a powerful nation of the world. Eco- nomics, a study of the financial side of nations and governments, and sociology, a study of people and social problems, may be enrolled in during the senior year. Three years' work in the social science department is required for graduation. Map study is a vital part of history work. American h i s to ry study, using classroom library material.

Spanish students learn the flags and songs of Spanish-speaking coun- tries. German with M is s Grube. The Virgil class is small but earnest. THE LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT The Language Department this year has offered courses in Latin, French, Spanish, and German. Work in a language is not required for gradua- tion, but it is highly recommended. Bernell Tuck- er, a senior enrolled this year in Virgil, says, Lat- in has been a life-saver to me during my four years of high school work. In every course I took, I found some connection between Latin and that course. Latin helped me in my typing, in the dividing of a word into syllables, and in transcribing my shorthand notes by simplifying the spelling and use of difficult words. My under- standing of English grammar was greatly clari- fied and my vocabulary was greatly increased by my knowledge of Latin. Scientific terms and geometric terms were simplified for me because of my Latin training. I have been helped by Latin in history because of my knowledge of early Roman history gained from the study of Latin. Latin literally pulled me throughi' the College Aptitude Test. My grades were raised from an M to a high S in high school, all, in my opinion, because of my Latin. Moreover, I am no outstanding exception. Anyone, with just one year of Latin carefully studied, can reap a real benefit. If one goes on and takes four years of Latin, he is bound to gain a much better under- standing of life in general, just because he can find so many things in Latin and Roman history that are exactly like the present time and that really give a better philosophy of life. Take my advice, and take Latinl!! Study of the modern languages is also of great value. It is regrettable that German must be discontinued next year, but it is to be hoped that the enrollment in French and Spanish will increase proportionately. THE SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Scientists in the making! Included in the West- port curriculum are many sciences, some of which are pictured here. Fitted in with the regular teaching schedule are laboratory experiments, field trips, and interesting class discussions. The classes often witness motion pictures along scientific lines that help develop more thoroughly certain parts of their courses. The science depart- ment uses the motion picture proiectors more in the classroom than does any other department. Two years of work in the science department are required for graduationg one year must be either general science or biologyg the other may be Zoology, botany, physiology and psychology, physiography, chemistry, physics, or senior sci- ence, according to the student's desire. Perhaps the pictures below will show you some of the practical application of the various science courses. Miss Bechtel lectures on The Brain in psychology. Senior science pupils learn about sound. A shocking picture in physics. What would zoology he Without frog dis- section? Biologists study flow- ers. In botany, students learn to use micro- scopes. An important part of physiography is the study of maps. Physiography e q u i p- ment on thc roof. 41, 'surf W. u :mr-an NVaffles to eat soon in the girls' cooking class! Our masculine chefs prepare doughnuts. Art work in the study of crafts. Making dresses in the clothing class. The art students sketch a member of their class. Fitting an evening dress is a part of the work in clothing. DGMESTIC AND FINE ARTS DEPARTMENTS Departments of much immediate practical value to the student are the foods, clothing, and arts departments. The subjects are not required, but they are important to the welfare of every student. Three years of work are offered in each subject. All phases of the subject of foods are studied, including budgeting, the wise selection of foods in marketing, balancing menus, the types of foods to serve on different occasions, and the prepara- tion of all kinds of foods in every way possible to prepare them. Last year a class in boys' prob- lems' was organized. It met with such instan- taneous and complete success that it has been continued this year and will probably become a permanent class. In clothing girls learn many facts about ma- terials and the making of clothes. After studying the textures and uses of the various materials, the girls make many useful articles, ranging from towels to graduation dresses. Many girls make all of their own clothes in their clothing class. Many branches of art may be studied during the three years in which it is offered. The first year deals with the fundamentals of lettering, painting, pencil sketching, charcoal work, poster making, and perspective Work. Costume art may be taken in place of art 3 and 4. In the third year, crafts or interior decorating may be studied. TI-IE INDUSTRIAL ARTS DEPARTMENT The Industrial Arts Department offers to boys and girls the opportunity to use their hands in developing practically anything that they may desire. In Woodwork classes the boys materialize from wood all sorts of furniture and fixtures. The metals shop Was opened to the girl students at the beginning of the year. Undesirous of making the same things that the boys do, the girls enrolled for metal make decorative lamps, bracelets, and other pieces of jewelry. The boys in metal work build lathes, drill presses, other pieces for home Workshops, and even tools for their own use. The drafting classes are for both boys and girls also, and on any fair day, you may see students out making blueprints or surveying ground, all as a part of the regular course. As you may note, the girls are rapidly striving for girls' industrial arts classes and have entered all shops but the wood shop. This, the last stronghold of boys' industrial arts, may soon fall.

THE COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT Westport's commercial department has prepared many excellent typists and stenographers for the business world. The department is noted for the fine training that it gives in typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping. The results of this superb in- struction, under our very capable teachers, Mr. Van Horn, Miss Card, Miss Totten, Miss Shelley, Mr. Carmicheal, Mr. Kirker, and Mr. Fristoe, may be readily seen in the excellent showing made by their students in the State Commercial Contest. The novice practical typing team, composed of Ed Epstein, Shirley Polk, and Elinore Owen, all Hrst-year students, received first place. The amateur practical typing team, David Kelly, Albert Doerschuk, and June Clifton, also took first place, while David Kelly placed first among individual second-year typists. The beginning shorthand team duplicated this feat of taking first-place honors, a member of the team, Jimmy Frank, tied for first- place individual honors. The team was composed of Jimmy Frank, Albert Doerschuk, and Bernell Tucker. There was no advanced shorthand team in competition, but Lillian Sandy placed third among individuals. The bookkeeping team, com- posed of Ellis Young, Frances Rains, and Thomas Stroud, took second place. Westport tied with Belton for school honors, although Belton received the loving cup on points. THE SPEECH DEPARTMENT Westport's speech department, under the direc- tion of Miss Alicia Keeler and Mr. Edwin King, two extremely capable instructors, has become one of the most eiiicient departments of its kind in the city. The expression classes are instructed in the rudiments of acting by the skillful Miss Keeler. Her classes have learned to recite poetry with the proper inflection and expression. They have studied the technique displayed in various plays, and have tried their own ability in this art. The most enjoyable work of the class came when they put their newly acquired knowledge into action and presented short plays before the -other members of the class.

Each student was allowed to choose the subject which he would like to discuss relating to a general subject given to the class. They were given from three to five minutes to discuss a trip, an activity, or give a demonstration. The class was next taught the fine points of debating, and several teams were sent to participate in debates with other schools, after having participated in several debates in class. Panel discussions followed and were in turn fol- lowed by original orations. After several contests, Kenneth Bigus was selected to represent Westport in the city Constitutional Oration Contest. A radio unit was worked upon next, and the stu- dents cnjoyecl preparing and giving radio skits.

The play, so ably directed by Miss Alicia Keeler, revolves around the maneuvers of Patricia Harrington to Win the affections of her elder sister's discarded fiance, Tony Anderson. Patricia has always been the underpup of the family. Grace, the favored one, engaged to wealthy Billy Caldwell, is encouraged by her socially ambitious mother. Pop, hen-pecked, good-naturecl Bill Harrington, learns that Pat is in love with Tony, who thinks he loves Grace. Pat skillfully finds out from Tony himself how to win a man, while Tony thinks he is giving the advice to win another. His recipe works beautifully, and Tony falls into his own trap. During the course of the third act, Pop asserts himself as head of the Harrington family. There was clever dialogue throughout the play, and each part was well cast.

The first desire is encouraged by Chuck Harris, the boy next door, and the other by Roger van Fleck, her uncle's guest from New York and Miami. Realism was furnished by kindly Dr. Wood and charming, gracious Mrs. Wood, the typical modern mother. Comedy was plentifully supplied by little Millie Lou's innocent attempts to make Mervyn, many years her senior, fall in love with her, while Mervyn loved beauteous Julie Harris, Chuck's big sister. Effie, the Wood's cook, and her ever-showing petticoat, added to the hilarity. Romance was furnished by smooth Roger van Fleck, who won the hearts of Penny and Julie, until they realized his insincerity. Drama was afforded by Chuck and Elmer, the hired man, who flew Chuck's home-made glider into the lake and were believed lost. However, all ended as it should, and June Mad was a supreme success, with the congratu- lations due Mr. King, its fine director, and the outstanding double cast.

These eighty Hne players have devoted many extra hours to practice so that our stu- dent body might be proud of its band. Mr. Keenan has Worked untiringly to make the Westport band second to none. At football games, basketball games, assemblies and con- certs this organization has proved its superior ability. This year, if Westport was to hold its leadership among bands, new uniforms were absolutely necessary. The old uniforms had been in service for ten years. By the untiring efforts of the Melody Booster Club these new uniforms were secured. They are truly the finest uniforms available for any high school band. With the invaluable assistance of Mr. Bee- man the band has been able to make great strides in its field of activities. Mr. Beeman has been eagerly accepted by the members as Mr. Keenan's assistant. 48 THE ORCHESTRA As in previous years, Westport may well be proud of its fine orchestra. Through the un- tiring efforts of Mr. Keenan, this group of sixty players has brought honor to the name of Westport countless times. Because of out- standing work, the orchestra was asked to play two programs over a national radio hook- up. The orchestra gave an outstanding per- formance at the biennial concert given by the instrumental groups, the proceeds from which aid in repairing instruments and purchasing new instruments and music. The Melody Boosters Club, organized three years ago, has also given invaluable service in providing the equipment necessary to a top-ranking group. The orchestra has played for numerous school functions and welcomes the opportunity of playing before an audience. We are anticipating a high rating for this accomplished group at the National Music Contest to be held in Kansas City, May 9-11. The members of the orchestra wish to take this opportunity to thank Mrs. Keenan for her helpful assistance in our undertakings this year.

It is indeed a sight to see the thirty-three drummerettes, led by two baton-twirling majorettes and one signal major- ctte, march out on the playing field in perfect formation. After breaking ranks, they form the spokes of several wheels and rotate While playing. The acrobatic drum-majorettes draw much ap- plause with their difficult back-bends and cart- wheels. This corps has greatly strengthened West- port's position among musical organizations. SWISS FLAG SWINGERS 1, ,ji--H was . 1 Left fo rigbf-Donald Benson, Vincent May, Calvin Curts, Bruce Aikin, Tom Glasscock, Roy Peterson, Ralph Ufford, Howard Rowe. jack Baltis, alternate, is not pictured. Westport leads again! We're the envy of all other schools with our new Swiss Flag Swingers. Not only Westport, but all Kansas City, is proud of them, with their beautiful new uniforms and adept flag-swinging technique. Each flag rep- resents a Kansas City high school, with the initial and the background carried out in the school colors. The flags are swung in unison to the tune of Moonlight Madonna. Many difficult gyra- tions are performed, and the flags are flung high into the air and caught upon their descent. West- port feels a justifiable pride in these performers. STATE MUSICAL CONTEST RESULTS Again Westport received top honors in the annual state musical contest at Columbia, Missouri. The soloists received top ranks in virtually every contest entered. Those taking first rank at the state contest will be eligible to enter the National Contest in Kansas City on May 9, 10, and 11.

The credit for this is due Mr. Harling A. Spring, whose capable direction has gained for him wide recognition. The choir has given programs during many as- semblies, unique among these were a farmer as- sembly and a Stephen Foster program. It has pre- sented concerts at schools, churches, and P. T. A. meetings, and has been heard on the radio four times, once on a national hookup. The choir also has furnished soloists, quartettes, and small groups of singers whenever requested.

After turning in nomination petitions, containing seventy-five signatures, to the Junior advisors, Mr. Cutting and Miss Hayden, the can- didates were reduced to fifteen in number in a primary election. In the final election five candi- dates were checked by each voter as being worthy of the high honor of being an ofiicer of the class. The results of this election showed the good judgment of the Junior Class, for they elected very capable oiiicers. Harold Clark received the highest number of votes and was accordingly named president. He is a corporal in the R. O. T. C., and secretary of Clay Literary Society.

Betty Dodge, treasurer, and Nancy Whitnell, Sergeant-at-Arms, are both Pundits, and Nancy is also a member of Speech Arts. Calvin Curts, Marjorie Sanders, Eu- gene Shearer, and Charles McKay were chosen to serve on the business committee. The Junior Class gave a class mixer in April, which was enjoyed by all who attended it. The entire class is extremely grateful for the assistance of its competent advisors, Mr. Cutting and Miss Hayden. SOPHOMORE SENATE The Sophomore Senate is a much less formal body than either the Junior or Senior Class Business Committees. It is composed of twelve sophomores chosen by the class sponsors, Miss Youngs, Miss Grube, and Mr. Crocker, for their dependability, their scholastic rating, and their leadership within their class. The real functions of the organization are to familiarize the sophomores with the school and school activities, to instill in them a school loyalty, and to acquaint them with as many mem- bers of their class as possible by giving mixers at which they may come to know each other better. The proceeds from these mixers are distributed among the various departments of the school where there is need of money to purchase something essential to the welfare of the school and of the students. Most of the profits from the first mixer this year were generously given to the school for the decoration of the stage during the Christmas season, which act was heartily appreciated by all. This mixer, given in the fall, was enjoyed by all who attended it. Another mixer is being planned by the Senate for sometime during the month of May. The members of the Senate are Jane Block, Isabel Frush, Peggy,Miner, Betty Beets, Lois Weiford, Barbara Ann Burbridge, Godfrey Isaac, William Ege, William Longmoor, Bronek Labunski, John Harrison, and Bruce Joseph. There are no officers as in the Junior and Senior Classes. The entire Sen- ate works together on all projects, with a presiding chairman maintaining parliamentary procedure. Peggy Miner has served as chairman during the past year. The Senate has done a very good job of mal-:ing the Sophomores an integral part of the school, and of instilling in them the school spirit which they will have much need of during their junior and senior years.

From the many applicants it was decided to choose only a few at the begin- ning of the year, and to add others as they should be needed. After considering scholastic records, personal rating records, teachers' recommenda- tions, and activity loads, Miss Bonney, advisor, selected four applicants as a Herald staff nucleus, Jack Seibel, Mildred Lane, Warren Larson, and Mary Munson started the year and later were appointed Editor-in-Chief, Senior Editor, Business Manager, and Clubs Editor, respectively. Ray Luhnow joined the staff in October as Photog- rapher and later became the Assistant Editor. Shortly before the close of the first semester, Phyllis Dana and Betty Wile were added to take care of the School Life section, and Betty Glenn was chosen to write the 1940 Tiger Tales. Finally, Frank Mallin and Dottie Mallett were appointed to represent the Herald to prospective advertisers. All members have worked hard at their jobs, and special recognition is due another person, not a staff member, but a willing worker. Roy Peter- son, darkroom assistant, has worked long and hard at his job without complaint. To this fellow, the staff owes their deepest appreciation for the help he has given Ray in the developing and printing of pictures. RDDNEY STEWART JOAN Woon F' THE ART STAFF The Art Staff this year was composed of Mar- jorie McVey, Joan Wood, John Kohn, and Rodney Stewart, who were under the supervision of Miss Willnte. The Art Editor, Marjorie McVey, won the cover design contest. Joi-iN KOHN MARJORIE MCVEY FIRST SEMESTER STUDENT COUNCIL President ...,. ,... W alter Root Vice-President .. .........

The first semester Student Council, striving for coordination and closer cooperation between the pupils and the faculty in the activity program of our school, achieved its goal with the most satisfactory results. The major enterprise for the Hrst semester was the improvement of conditions in the cafeteria. Our problems were brought up and discussed at a meeting attended by Mr. Mueller, Assistant Sec- retary, School District, who effected the desired changes, with the assistance of the council com- mittee. At Christmas an all-school mixer was sponsor-I ed by the Student Council for the first time in the Council's history. The admission price was a toy in good condition, or a can of food. The proceeds were sent to a charitable institution. Music was furnished by a W.P.A. negro orchestra. The dance was well attended, and enjoyed by all. The traditional Christmas tree which adorned the front hall a few days prior to the holidays was purchased from student donations and dec- orated by the Executive Board. The Student Council promoted better school spirit at the football and basketball games. It secured more cheerleaders, and urged the student body to support them in the best Westport style. In future years, the cheerleaders will be elected by the Pep Club rather than by a faculty com- mittee. Another new plan provides for selected student salesmen Who will handle the activity ticket sales, a program which should greatly increase the activity fund.

Another year at Westport has come to an end, and the Student Council feels that it has helped make that year a memorable one. The most important activity of the second semester council was the organization and pre- sentation of an assembly in the interest of the ten-mill tax levy. This assembly, planned and presented by the council members, included stu- dent speakers, and was enthusiastically received by the student body. ' When the annual Vocational Conference was held at Westport on April 4, the guides, hosts, hostesses, and couriers, sponsored by the Student Council, helped make the event successful. The officers attended the several Inter-School Council meetings held throughout the year at various High Schools. 1940 is the third year for the Inter-School Council, and it shows promise of being very influential in the student activities of the future. Westport has cause to be proud of its Student Council. During the years, it has promoted school spirit and has succeeded in upholding Westportis high standards. The Student Council's success in all its en- deavors is due in large measure to its advisor, Miss Shelley. Her untiring efforts and excellent advice have enabled us to carry on in true West- port style. Assemblies Homecoming assembly, when Mr. Holloway, W'alter Root, and Phyllis Dana welcomed back to Westport such old-grads as Chuck Richardson, David Skeet, Lou Dickey Baucus, Ann Carlton Logan, Clarence Hewlett, and Meredith Brewer . . . The American Royal visitors, Ivon Kindschc and Norman Kruse, interviewed by Walter Root . . . Singing the school loyalty song at assemblies . . . The down-on-the-farmn medley of songs by Mr. Spring and the A Cappella choir. Westport's assembly programs reached a new high in entertainment this year! An activity as- sembly opened the season, showing in striking fashion the variety of entertainment offered to the students on the activity ticket. A portrayal of the fun and excitement to be had at the foot- ball and basketball games, at the plays, and in the Crier and the Herald convinced many stu- dents of the value of the activity ticket. In the second assembly the cheer-leaders and the band cooperated to encourage school spirit at the foot- ball games. A coming-outn program introduced our flag-swingers in the first performance of its kind in the city. The new club presidents extolled the merits of their various organizations, and Margaret Brewer sang charmingly. Late in Oc- tober the farm came in for its share of publicity when Walter Root presented the Star Farmer of America, Norman Kruse of Nebraska, and the Wisconsin state president of the F. F. A., Ivon Kindsche. Mr. Spring and his vocal students clos- ed the program with an entertaining medley of farm songs. At the Honor assembly Westporters received recognition for distinction in scholarship. In a Stephen Foster presentation, Foster's songs and a skit based on his life were enacted. The W. P. A. orchestra's delightful concert, the inter- esting talks of the Homecoming assembly, the excellent sample of the band and orchestra con- cert, the technicolor film on South and Central America, the Student Council's introduction of the school tax problem, and the Herald's quiz session on school affairs were other features of the year's assemblies.

Swing's the thing at Westport's mixers, and this year Westport has had an unprecedented number of these informal dances in the girls' gym. The Auto Club started the season in grand style, with the music furnished by Ye Olde Nickelodeon. Then the sophomores gave a Sadie Hawkins Day mixer, for which Daisy Mae and L'il Abner were imported direct from Dogpatch. At Christmas time, the Student Council spon- sored a mixer, the admission price being a canned food or a toy. These were sent to a needy in- stitution. During the second semester, the Auto Club again led off the parade with a very successful m session for the rug-cutters and jitter- bugsf' On St. Valentine's Day, the Hi-Y spon- sored the good time that was had by all. Then the Girl Reserves came forth with the Hrs: public address system for their get-together. The band and orchestra next gave a mixer to help pay for their dazzling new uniforms. Later, the monitors and S. G. Men attended an exclusive session at which refreshments were served to all. The Junior Class wound up the year with a super afternoon and a promise for more mixers next year. THE MONITOR STAFF The monitor staff is part of the student gov- ernment system at Westport. Sixty-three moni- tors have been appointed to keep order in the cafeteria and on the stairs during the lunch hour. The staff is divided into three sections, each sec- tion serving one lunch period. It is their duty to see that the proper conduct is maintained in the cafeteria. They also prevent undue noise on tween their classes and the cafeteria. It is to this organization that the students of Westport owe their gratitude for many of the privileges that they enjoy, for the monitors restrain those few who would destroy the privileges of the entire student group. The monitor staff has worked under the direc- tion of Mr. Evans, who was assisted first semester by Miss Van Neman and Miss Lash, and second the stairs during the transit of the pupils be- Head Monitors Mayme Bresnahan Elinore Owen Barbara Boyer Monitors Dick Alberts Kirk Albright Priscilla Balsly Lucille Bethel Virginia Bethel Virginia Bishop Leslie Boring John Bozarth Joan Bray Joe Breneman Nellie Brooks Jimmy Colley Lila Conard Jim Costello Bethel Courier Burt Curts Wesley Davenport XVallace Davis Bill Disselhoff Frank Eaton semester by Mr. Carmichael and Mr. Violet Maugh Dorothy McFarland Paul Mendenhall Gerald Mize Floyd Emery Virginia Morgan Joe Fasl Tully Moss Bob Flattery Betty Mui-kin Alice Hall Donald Ottosen Raymond Henry Arthur Pennington Bob Hoblitzell Berge Pratt Richard Jacoby Gloria Jacobs Clylene Jones Sarajeane Keller Bill Kester Bryle Ladd C J LeVan Marion Levitch Virginia Limb Patricia Littrell Ray Luhnow Ann Mantice 64 Sidney Sholtz Leo Simpson Bill Spicer Melvyn Thayer Edwin Timberlake Jeanne Tolin Freeda Via Calvin Weiss George West Deaun Wiggins Jean Wilcox Dick Wilson Kennedy.

By carrying out the purpose of the Westport Parent-Teacher Association, namely the welfare of students, this year's organization has completed another year in the field of service and duty. Several fine guest speakers were invited to address the P. T. A. this year. Notable among these were Mr. O. H. Day of Manual High and Vocational School, who spoke on 'Facing the Future in Vo- cations, the Reverend Richard Trelease, ,rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, who talked on Youth and the Larger Citizenship , and Miss Louise Abney of Teacher's College, who discussed Achieving Desirable Personality. These inforf mative talks were accompanied by interesting dis- cussions among members in the audience. The speeches were very enlightening and were greatly appreciated by all those who attended the meetings. Other excellent programs were provided by the music of the Westport orchestra, the A Cappella choir, and student soloist Margaret Brewer, ac- companied by Bruce joseph. Their renditions added extra flavor and zest to the enjoyable meetings. This year the Parent-Teacher Association has made many worthy contributions to various needy and deserving organizations. Arrangements fo-r the Senior Dance of this spring are under the supervision of Mrs. John P. Kohn. Mrs. C. B. Shaeffer has given much of her time and energy to making the P. T. A. more efficient and active throughout the year. The success of -the activities she has directed has encouraged the members of the group to continue their efforts in 1940-41.

Clay's success in striving for the development of forensic talents, leadership and character is shown by the fact that among its members are many of those prominent in the school's varied activities. Space does not permit a detailed account, but among the honors which Clay members have re- ceived are: editor-in-chief of the Herald, presi- dent of Student Council, president of Hi-Y, pres- ident and vice-president of the Junior Class, officers of the Senior Class, and the highest rank- ing student in the college aptitude test through- out Kansas City. The honor of Clay beauty queen was bestowed this year upon Mildred Lane, president of the Senior Class. She was chosen for her charm, per- sonality, and talents. The club wishes to express deep and sincere gratitude to Miss Cook, who has so ably served as our sponsor. Our aim is improvement, our goal is achieve- ment. We feel that in the light of these, this year has been truly successful. IRVING LITERARY SOCIETY As the season of 1939-'40 closes, so closes an- other successful year for the Irving Literary Soci- ety. The sincere purpose of Irving is to broaden our interest in literature, and to create a better friend- ship among all members. We have lived up to our ideals in that many members have participated in inter-high school debates, oratorical contests, and literary contests. We are extremely proud that our first semester president, Kenneth Bigus, succeeded in winning the city oratorical contest sponsored by the Amer- ican Legion. We feel indeed fortunate in securing as our beauty queen Martha Dee Benson, whose charming personality is exceeded only by her beauty. To Mr. Ward, who again has been our sponsor, we extend our deepest gratitude and appreciation for his loyal guidance, enabling us to maintain our high standards.

Its members have ranked high in dramatics, music, athletics, and scholastics, and their entries rated considerable merit in the Inter-Society Literary Contest. All the members have tried to live up to the ideals and standards of the club as expressed in the motto, Look upward, not downg look for- ward, not back, and lend a hand. Like the great fire god, Prometheus, from whom we take our name, We are striving to give a certain fire or vital bit of life to mankind. We are proud to have for beauty queen, Kathryn Bonewits, who was chosen not only for her beauty but because we feel she upholds the spirit and ideals of Promethean. We chose as our Beau Brum- mell, Rodney Stewart, an Irving. Miss Junkin has been our helpful and loyal ad- visor this year, and we wish to take this oppor- tunity to thank her for her splendid guidance and cooperation. The Irving-Promethean dance was one of the highlights of the year, and promises to go down in Westport's history for its originality.

This year each member of Pundit has done her share to ful- fill our desire to weigh, consider, and ex- press the finest ideals of literary expression. In retrospection, we may point with pride to those Pundits who took their places as leaders in various school activities. Many of the class officers, Herald executives, Student Council leaders, scholars, debaters, actresses, musicians, and contest Winners were Pundits. Pundit's sponsorship of the Inter-Society Literary Contest for poetry, short stories, and essays again proved our desire to fulfill the signification of our name, which means Wise Hindu. Entertainment reigned su- preme at the formal dance given with the Clay Literary Society. The tea given for the Promethean Literary Society also afforded an afternoon of pleasure for all. Gur beauty queen, Phyllis Dana, is indeed the personification of Pundit's ideals, charm, personality, and versatility. Acting as our sponsor, Miss Secrest has exemplified friendship, leadership, and gra- ciousness, qualities for which we all may well strive. First Semester Martha Jane Cox Joann Wood ..,.. . . .

Forty years ago Round Table, the oldest literary society now in Westport, was founded. With King Arthur and his knights and ladies of the Round Table as our inspira- tion, our creed has become, Live pure, speak true, right wrong, follow the king, else wherefore born. Since 1900 a parade of members has brought honor to this society in high scho- lastic achievement, top ranking in R. O. T. C., Senior Class offices, participation in school plays and editorship of the Crier. In recognition of Round Table's fortieth birthday, a Coronation ball was given, at which Frank Eaton and Billie Jean Burks presided as king and queen. Their genial and sincere personalities personify our conception of ideal leadership. We know our charming queen and amiable king will always be re- vered in the eyes of all. We are indeed grateful to Mr. Miner, our advisor, for his invaluable influence and guidance throughout the past year.

Westport's speech and drama club closes a profitable and successful seventeenth year. Loyal club members aim to attain not only frequent and enthusiastic participation in programs, but 10042 attendance, knowledge of and adherence to correct parliamentary procedure, and friendly cooperation. Fall programs opened in October with a one-act play, Introducing Launcelotf' In November new members presented three one- act plays. The Maker of Dreamsu in three scenes was directed by Kathryn Bonewits. The Christmas play, Dust of the Roadf' was presented in December by Betty Coffman, Charles Goff, Harry Page and John Banta. The spring programs began in February with the Tenth Annual Patriotic Oration Contest in which Harry Flapan won firstg Charles Goff and Betty Coffman, second. March brought the test in parliamentary law. Seniors won by a sweep of three to one with Frank Mallin first, Charles Goff and Leone Seaton second. Eugene Benus was high junior and Everett Maze high sophomore. New members presented a one-act play, Figs and Dates. April programs consisted of scenes from Shakespeare and a poetry reading con- test, a feature new this year. Samuel Pierce, a charter member of the club, returned to give an illustrated lecture on I-Iamletf' The club thanks the advisor, Miss Keeler, for her advice and generous help. JULES GUERIN ART CLUB The members of Jules Guerin Art Club feel that under the able guidance of Miss Wilhite, who -has been sponsor since the club's organization in 1922, the purpose of Jules Guerin has been fulfilled. This purpose is to further interest in art and all things related to it. - One of the most interesting programs of' the year was an informal talk on tempera painting by Mr. James Roth of the William Rockhill Nelson Art Gallery. The masterpiece of the month at the Nelson Art Gallery has long been recognized as an outstand- ing feature, while the masterpiece of the week at Westport is a new idea. This chosen piece is se- lected from the work of all the art classes. There are approximately forty masterpieces a year ex- hibited in Westport's front hall. Every year a majority of contestants in the Herald Cover design contest are Jules Guerin mem- bers. Posters for clubs, plays and school activities are contributed by members. As the senior Jules Guerin members go out after a successful year, they leave behind many others, equally talented, to carry on the standards of the club.

Sergeant-az'-A1'1ns .... This year B. C. P. inaugurated a new policy. At the start of the second semester it was decided to make visits to commercial plants and factories an important part of the club program. In accord- ance with this plan, members visited bakeries, dairies, and other places of interest to members of a science club. Other programs consisted of scien- tific games led by the vice-president, talks on sci- entific topics, and demonstrations by students. In addition to the educational activities, the club members enjoyed a Christmas party and an annual May picnic. At both of these functions all members of the club thoroughly enjoyed them- selves. This year, as in previous years, B. C. P. of- fered its services to the school by selling tickets for . . . .Calvin Curts , . .Billy Walker both the fall and the spring plays. When B. C. P. was founded in 1910 it was lim- ited to Botany, Zoology, and Physiology. How- ever, in 1919, when the club was reorganized, it was enlarged so that it now includes all the sci- ences taught at Westport, namely: Biology, Botany, Chemistry, Physics, Physiography, Physiology, Psy- chology, and Zoology. Miss Bechtel deserves the thanks of each member of B. C. P. She ably assisted the club and its offi- cers in successfully carrying out the varied activi- ties of the year. The club as a whole hopes that Miss Bechtel has obtained as much enjoyment in working with us as we have had in Working with her. Marjorie Yoakum, C J Le Van, Colleen Phipps, Margaret Halstead, Fred Lindner, Harry Lutz, ALPHA LYRA Alpha Lyra music club was organized in West- port for the advancement of friendships among vocal and instrumental students, and for the pro- motion of musical participation and appreciation. Our sponsor, Mr. Spring, gives sympathetic guidance in all activities of the club. His encour- agement has helped many students to greater in- terest and development in music. He is interested in the advancement and preservation of Alpha Lyra traditions. Through well planned programs, musical talent is discovered. Through friendly criticism and praise, members are encouraged to appear on pro- grams, thereby developing poise and confidence. For several years Alpha Lyra has sponsored mu- sic contests at' Westport. Again this year, our club has sponsored a vocal solo contest, giving oppor- tunity for many eager students to try their voices before an audience and judges. An outstanding meeting of the club this year was held during the Christmas season. Histories of Christmas carols and their composers were read, and the carols were sung with understanding and reverence by all members. Among Westport's many departmental clubs, Alpha Lyra is valued for its aesthetic appeal. Through participation in Alpha Lyra activities, the music student gains a deeper comprehension of music and is stimulated to greater freedom of mu- sical expression in his own life.

Betty Antener In living up to our motto, Always forward, we have had a year of interesting and informative activities. Our meetings have been conducted en- tirely in Spanish, thus enabling the members to ob- tain a fluent speaking Vocabulary. Accuracy in pronunciation and grammar have been obtained by this practice in speaking and interpreting the lan- guage. As one of our activities this year we have ex- changed letters and newspapers with high school pupils in South American countries. In this way we have learned much of the private life of our NEW CLUBS To acquaint all readers with the attempts to organize new clubs, we feel it appropriate to use this space in behalf of those clubs. The Literary League started out this year with the purpose of helping with the writing and production of as- semblies and the Hi-Larities. With Mr. Crocker's transfer to Paseo, the Hi-Larities' plans were dropped and the club could find nothing to do. There is a place for a club such as this in Westport, and we hope that it will be reorganized next year. A minor movement toward the organization of a Bird-Study Club took place in the winter. To Spanish-American neighbors. One interesting pro- gram included talks by Mexican professors. A famous Spanish singer helped us with our Spanish songs and gave a delightful concert. In order to ac- quaint ourselves with Spanish Art we visited the Nelson Art Gallery and studied famous master- pieces. We have had numerous talks on South American countries, pictures of Chile, and Span- ish games. We wish to thank Mr. Phillips for his guidance and help in our activities throughout the year. those young Audubons, this club would have proved valuable. The Stamp Club, sponsored by Mr. Irion, is the only one of these new ideas that materialized into finished form. Meetings are held regularly and philatelic, gossip is presented at all meetings. Thus we have a record of the club activities for this year. The school needs several clubs along many lines to interest its entire student body. Next year we hope that more clubs will be organized, because they take a definite part in the development of the student. LES IMMORTELS French pupils were given an opportunity to con- verse in French outside of the classroom when Les Immortels, the French Club, was organized in 1927. . The French Club meetings this year have been extremely interesting. Often reports were given in French about French notablesg we visited the Nel- son Art Gallery to see the French paintingsg at Christmas a play was presented. The second semesx- ter activities rounded into shape with a party. A Professor Quiz program in French afforded much amusement for the members. Usually the meetings were closed by singing French songs. A Spring Harvest party closed the year's activi- tiesg all kinds of fruits were served, followed by a white elephant grab-bag. At this meeting the French Club also revived the old custom of pre- senting the French Department with a useful gift. Our able sponsor, Miss Collins, has encouraged and supported us in all of our undertakings and we extend our profound appreciation to her for all that she has done for us during the past year.

Norma Jean Talkington Since the ancient days of the Roman and Gre- cian empires there has always been a group of people interested in the civil, national, and inter- national affairs of their city or nation. These in- dividuals joined together into various groups throughout the world and voiced their opinions on anything that arose which interested the group. From these circles came the great orators and poli- ticians of the day. They formed, perhaps, one of the first definite steps toward democracy. The movement, especially after the fall of Rome, de- clined in popularity. But after many years the idea has again gained favor. This year in Westport a new club was started sponsoring the ideals of the Roman Forum. Speakers of city, national, and international re- nown volunteered to speak to the assembly. Thus the Student Forum became a new organization of interest to Westport students. It does not inter- fere with membership in other clubs as it meets every other Thursday under the sponsorship of Miss Wheeland and Mr. Carmichael. Because of the attendance and interest shown, this club will probably become in the future one of Westport's leading departmental clubs. 1 AUTO CLUB It is doubtful if Westport has ever had a service club that took the word service so seriously. The Auto Club has endeavored in every possible way to serve Westport and to help Westport maintain her various traditions. In the program department the Auto Club has also been a decided success. Included in the yearis programs have been lectures from authorities on safety, motion pictures and slide pictures on driv- ing and safety, a technicolor picture on Mexico, an extemporaneous speaking contest, a Professor Quiz contest on safe driving, and a meeting, open to all students, at which those who attended were fingerprinted by local police. Last year the Auto Club was the first club to sponsor an all school mixer. This year the club followed up this former success by presenting two all school mixers. If you can judge a mixer by at- tendance you will, no doubt, know that the Auto Club's mixers were the biggest and the best. Many of you are probably wondering how our club has been so successful. There might be offered several answers to the question but the real reason is Mr. Carmichael. As the sponsor of the Auto Club from the time it was established until the present, his careful guidance, direction, and support have made the Auto Club what it is. Mr. Carmichael's success has been due to his willingness to lead the members rather than to drive them. Fin! Semester OFFICERS Second Semesfer Eddie Kander , . ......, President ....,......,..

Under the excellent guidance of our spon- sor, Mr. King, this club has aided in the pro- duction of plays, assemblies, and other forms of entertainment presented by Westport High School. Some of our members, with the expert ad- vice and assistance of Mr. Long, have been a great help in operating the various types of picture machines, so that students of West- port have had the benefit of these interest- ing forms of education. Mr. Miner of the Science Department has been generous in allowing us the use of his microphone and other electrical appliances that we needed. Our stage crew, composed entirely of boys, recently obtained new white uniforms which they have been wearing while working be- hind stage. The various duties of these boys are those involving lights, scenery, properties, and sound effects. Another important phase of our work is that of prompting the actors and actresses of the Spring and Fall plays and helping them with their make-up work. It is our sincere hope that this service club may continue to grow more helpful and efficient, and that its future members may carry us still closer to our ultimate goal, that of making Westport, more than ever, the ideal school. CANDID CAMERA CLUB N Here ends the third successful year of active service of this club, which is the youngest of all the clubs in the service group. Cameramen Jack Seibel and Ray Luhnow, assisted by Roy Peterson in the dark room, have proved an invaluable asset to the Herald in obtaining photographs for the club panels and candid shots of the varied activi- ties of the school. Examples of the toilsome efforts of these members of the Candid Camera Club are to be found on almost every page of the Herald. The second purpose of the Candid Camera Club is to arouse student interest in photography. In an effort to accomplish this, an interesting program is planned for each meeting. This year, the members of the club witnessed demonstrations and explana- tions of various photographic apparatus such as the camera, the enlarger, the film pack, and many others. Movies were given of a trip through Colo- rado and natural color transparencies were shown accompanied by an interesting narration. Photo- graphic talents of fellow members were compared in other meetings. Y Again this year, the photographing of the many departments was done by the Herald Staff, thereby eliminating much of the cost of commercial pho- tography. Membership in the Candid Camera Club is open to those whose qualifications meet with the regular scholastic requirements and who have a genuine interest in photography. Meetings are held every other Wednesday under the sponsorship of Miss Bonney. In the future, we know that such an es- sential element as the Candid Camera Club will hold its position among the service clubs of West- port.

Our plat- form is, Clean living, clean speech, clean sports, and clean scholarship. Throughout the year the club had many inter- esting and pleasant activities. The first of these was a hay ride. At Christmas-time we joined the Girl Reserves in a banquet, and sent canned goods to Mercy Hospital. We sponsored an all-school mixer which won the approval of the entire stu- dent body. In conjunction with the Girl Reserves we sponsored a series of Pre-Easter services. This successful season of activities was climaxed by a mother-father-son banquet. Mr. Arthur England was the representative of the Y. M. C. A. who worked very ably with the club this year. Mr. England is a junior at the Uni- versity of Kansas City, and a Methodist minister. The club lost the able assistance of Mr. Crocker, Hi-Y sponsor, who was transferred to another school early this year. GIRL RESERVES To help, to educate, to inspire, to entertain, and to be friendly have been the aims of Girl Reserves for many years. We believe that we have made this year a most successful one. We have had some outstanding speakers give- us various thought-producing talks. Miss Wilkins, the secretary of the Paseo Branch of the Y. W. C. A., was among these speakers. In November we bought and wrapped gifts which, along with the favors we had made, were sent to an Indian Reservation to be given to the boys and girls at Christmas time. Two teas at the home of Mrs. Mead were in- spirational and entertaining. December was a happy month for us. We held our annual party at the City Union Mission. At this party each girl adopted a child and brought it gifts. Christmas songs were sung and stories were read to the children. At the G. R.-Hi-Y banquet Phil Morgan spoke brilliantly. Everyone enjoyed the inter-club meet- ings and parties at the Y.,' Among these were the Palm Sunday breakfast, the closing banquet, and three dances at which the girls asked the boys as guests. We wish to express our gratitude to Miss Helen Faye Fair, secretaryg Miss Josephine Chambers and Mrs. Haggard, our sponsors, for their help this year. -. . ,. . - g V A .Li AA .-.1 First Semexier OFFICERS Second Semester l i' ,. i L V ,Q V ' V I ae ' l- ' -.-JU , June Clifton .

Although the club is only approximately two years old it has shown great progress. The purpose of the Pep Club is to increase school spirit and to lead the school in the yells at the inter-scholastic games. To get the students' en- thusiasm aroused there have been pep assemblies before and after school. The pep sweaters and meg- aphones add to the effect of the club. Any pupil having an M average and a desire to yell is eligi- ble for membership. Many new yells were turned in this year by the students and were greatly appreciated. These yells are practiced by the cheerleaders and Pep Club members, then they are used in pep assemblies and at the games. There have been some new additions to the club. Boys are now eligible to become members and a number have joined. Mr. Passiglia, sponsor last year, established the club, and Mr. King has car- ried on this year as advisor. The Pep Club members wish to thank him for his interest and cooperation. - 1 1 ATHLETICS Athletics have played an important part in the school life of Westport this year. The football season was ushered in with the start of school in September. The first scheduled game found the Tigers victors over Rosedale. The following week they started the inter- scholastic season with a victory over Central. The rest of the games were not so satisfactory, however, the Tigers finishing in fourth place, with a percentage of .333. While the football games were still being played, the Westport tennis team was winning the Inter-scholastic CHEERLEADERS The cheerleaders, after tryouts, were chosen by a faculty committee. These cheerleaders, together with the Pep Club, have helped pro- vide the cheering at the football and basket- League championship and making an enviable record in the state tournament, both in singles and doubles. At approximately the same time, the golfers were placing fourth in their tournament. The basketball season started in December. After losing the first two games, the Tigers came back to put on a strong finish, winning four games and losing three to complete the season in fourth place, with a percentage of .571. Intramural activities have been going on all year, with spring bringing a revival of track activity. ball games. They received excellent coopera- tion from the student body. Next year the cheerleaders will be chosen by the Student Council. Left to right-Carl Bockman, Sarajeane Keller, Betty Pirnie, Viola Baker, Freeda Via, Ben Czarlinsky.

With school spirit as one basic principle, the organiza- tion encourages the fellowship which can be at- tained only through sports. To belong to the club students must have earned a letter in tennis, golf, basketball, or football, and must be elected by the active members. Activities of the W-Clilb during the past two years include ushering at the Municipal Auditor- ium basketball games, keeping students in the right sections and in order, and curbing the de- struction of Auditorium property which has been blamed on the high school rooters. W-Club meetings are held every other week. Programs this year have covered a wide range of subjectsg visiting speakers have given beneficial and inspirational talks on such varied subjects as the navy, physics, fishing, C.M.T.C. camps, and the condition of our schools. Again this year the W-Club attended the Kansas Relays as a bodyg participation of some of the boys in the track events added interest to the trip. W-Club members do not limit themselves to sports. The vice-president of the Senior class is a member of the club. Five members made the hon- or roll last semester. Many of the monitors are W- Club members, and two of our athletes had parts in the Spring Play. The members of the W-Club Wish to express their gratitude to Mr. Bourrette, who ably took over the responsibility of sponsoring the club again this year, and who gave much assistance and advice to the members and oflicers. We hope that West- port has benefited by our club's efforts to make it a better institution of learning.

SUMMARY OF THE FOOTBALL SEASON Westport 15 Rosedale 7 p Westport's Tigers opened the season against the green-clad Kansans and came out on the long end of a 15 to 7 score. Ottosen's toe, a real threat, ac- counted for three points. From Rosedale's 28-yard line Ottosen placed the pigskin squarely between the goalposts. An aerial attack opened by Menden- hall and carried on by Scanlon paved the way for scores in the second quarter. The price of victory, however, was a broken cheek bone sustained by Bill Bucher, which kept him from playing in the rest of the season's games. Westport 6 Central 0 The thrilling opening game for Westport in the Interscholastic League was the defeat of the Central Eagles on their own field. Brilliant running plays, highlighted by Scanlon's 70-yard run in the third quarter, and several intercepted passes, helped the Tigers to victory. Not so brilliant, however, were the numerous fumbles by both teams. Central threatened to score in the fourth quarter when the ball was resting on Westport's S-yard line, but the superior Tiger line pushed Central back to the 20-yard line in two plays to cancel that threat. A few minutes later the game ended, and Westport led, 6 to 0. Westport 7 Southwest 23 After scoring in the first period on a series of passes and runs, the Indians kept the Tigers caged during the entire game. To make matters worse, Southwest added another two points by a safety, when Bouldin's kick from the 16-yard line was blocked by Mering of Southwest and the ball rolled over the goal line. In the third quarter, the Tigers unwrapped the surprise package of the game, a triple lateral pass, Scanlon to Sheridan to Bouldin, completely mystifying their opponents and sending Bouldin over the goal before the In- dians realized what had happened. Ottosen's place- ment was good and the score stood 9 to 7. A fumble recovered by Southwest and a triple lateral by the Indians accounted for their other two touchdowns. Westport 6 Ward 13 The Tigers suffered a defeat at the hands of the Ward Cyclones. Westport,s only score was on a long pass by Scanlon. The kick for the extra point was blocked by a fast rushing Ward line. Near the end of the first half Westport threatened, as the half ended, the ball rested on the Ward 10-yard line, but the Tigers were unable to push it over. An interesting sidelight of this game was its broad- cast by station KCKN, with Bill Ingram, Jean To- lan, and Phyllis Joy being heard over the air during half time. Westport 0 Northeast 21 Playing a purely defensive game, the Tigers did not threaten to score during the entire 60 minutes. A fumble gave the Vikings their first touchdown. The way was opened for Northeastis second touch- down when Westport lost the ball on downs on its own 14. A center plunge was good for the Viking score. Their last tally came in the final quarter, when a long runback of Bouldin's punt, a long pass, and a lateral accounted for the touchdown. North- east converted all three extra points, to run the score up to 21 to 0. It was a disastrous day for the Tigers. Westport 27 Southeast 7 The Tiger eleven combined a strong line with Hue work in the backield to make their best show- ing of the season. A sensational dash by Bouldin for 55 yards was good for the first touchdown. The Tigers seemed to let up for a while when Southeast scored, but they came back in grand style in the last period, kicking, running, and passing to score 14 points and sew up the game, 27 to 7. Westport 7 East 26 East used a passing offensive which puzzled the Tiger defense. East scored in the first quarter, but Westport came back in the second quarter, and after two running plays and two passes, pushed the ball over from East's 3-yard line. The Bears scored three more touchdowns in the second half with continuous drives. The Tigers tried desperately to score through an aerial attack, but could not com- plete the necessary passes. Westport 6 Paseo 7 Westport, in the last game of the season, lost a heart-breaker to Paseo. Early in the first quarter the Tigers marched 62 yards down the Held for their only touchdown. A few minutes later West- port had possession of the ball on the Paseo 10-yard line, but the Pirates intercepted Bouldin's pass to prevent a score. In the second half Paseo made a touchdown and converted the extra point, to gain a one-point victory.

SUMMARY OF THE BASKETBALL SEASON Westport 20 Central 22 In this game Westport seemed destined to open the season with a victory. However, in the final minutes, Central gained the lead and the Tigers were doomed to defeat. Holding their opponents to three points in each of the first three quarters, Westport entered the final quarter leading 16 to 9. At this point Central began a rally which netted them a victory. The de- feat was a disheartening one to Tiger followers who had looked forward to an all-winning season. Tomlinson paced the team's attack with eight points. Westport 20 Southwest 23 For the second straight week Westport's twenty points were insufficient to bring victory. During the first half the teams battled on even terms, Westport finally gaining an 11 to 10 lead minutes before the half ended. . With the opening of the second half Southwest gained a lead which was never relinquished. West- port never trailed by more than five points, and the game was exciting to the final whistle. The Tiger attack was again led by Tomlinson. With this second loss the team saw its hopes fade and only a slim chance now remain for the champion- ship. Westport 39 Southeast 17 Westport found a valiant foe in the Southeast Knights, but crushed them with a bewildering at- tack. From the very start victory seemed evident as the Tigers consistently poured the ball through the hoop. Using the fast break to a great advan- tage, Westport was never headed. Leading 21 to 11 at the half, the team played even greater ball dur- ing the second half, completely stopping the Southeast attack. This game furnished Coach Chubb an opportunity to use his reserve power, substitutes being frequent for Westport. The West- port scoring was paced by Sheridan and Albright: Westport 19 Northeast 3 2 Northeast started with a rush and the Tigers could never gain the upper hand. The Westporters showed little of the fight which had featured their- previous battles. They found the climbing on', tactics of the Vikings a little too rough, and never played up to par. Fred Bouldin led the attack for the Tigers. Westport 37 Manual 23 During the first quarter of this game Westport's attempts at the Manual goal were few and far be- tween, after scoring only four points in this quar- ter, the Tigers began hitting baskets from all angles and built up a commanding lead at the half. It was not until the second half, however, that they reached their true scoring stride. This half found the team passing swiftly and accurately, often catching Manual completely unprepared. Sheridan and Albright led the scoring with ten points each. Westport 39 East 26 In this game the Tigers again flashed superb' passing, and once they gained the lead the outcome was never in doubt. The fast-breaking Tigers com- pletely outplayed East, and many wondered if this was the same team which had faced Northeast two weeks before. The team was alert in all depart- ments, and took advantage of all East mistakes. Tomlinson was the leading Westport scorer with nine points. Westport 29 Paseo 26 Westport's brilliant play of the two previous weeks reached a climax with a hard earned victory over undefeated Paseo. The Tigers, showing great courage and skill, pierced the Pirates' tight zone defense with alert passes. The ability of the team to gain the rebounds under each basket was the outstanding point in the victory. The Pirates had to be content with a single shot each time they came down the floor, because some Tiger player always came up with the rebound. The Pirates, who had gone undefeated in fifteen league games, were outfought and out-hustled by a fighting Westpo1't team. Westport's total of 29 points was the greatest number scored against Paseo by any team in the league. Sheridan paced the Tigers with 14 points. Scanlon was outstanding on rebound work. A summary of the league games shows the Tigers outscoring their opponents 203 to 169. Had their early season performances matched their late sea- son showings, Westport would undoubtedly have finished much higher in the standings. In only one game were the Tigers beaten by more than three points, and their opponents always knew they had been in a battle when the final gun sounded. BASKETBALL SECOND TEAM Front row le t to rzglot Ernest Piper Don Chamblee Ray Back row-Chris Tsougas Bill McBurney Bob Eggleston, The Westport Seconds, composed of juniors and sophomores, won the second team championship for the school, winning every game except the one against Southwest. In all other games they won handily, and chalked up exceedingly high scores. Their total of 52 points against Southeast is believed to be something of a league record. When the scoring for the season was tallied up, it showed the Westport Seconds outscoring their op- ponents 266 to 169. These second team boys will be back next year, trying for positions on the first team. With two of this year's first team lettermen also returning, the outlook for 1941 is bright indeed. TTHSCOACHES Westport is fortunate in having two fine coaches, Mr. G. V. Bourrette, football, and Mr. Gayle Chubb, basketball. Both are capable, popu- lar, and 'endowed with the ability to instill high ideals of sportsmanship in the boys who work under them. They work together closely, with Mr. Chubb assisting with the football duties, and Mr. Bourrette lending a hand when the basketball season comes around. Coach Bourrette should be commended for the TRACK Westport wanted to be entered in the Missouri Valley A. A. U. Indoor Track Meet held in the Municipal Auditorium this spring, so Coach Bour- rette chose four boys and trained them to run the half-mile relay race. To the surprise of all, jack Nielsen, Don Ottosen, Paul Mendenhall, and John Scanlon placed third, only a split second behind the winner. This success revived the interest of the boys in track work, and when the opportunity came to practice with Rosedale, the boys were all set to run the 100 and 200-yard dashes, the half-mile relay, and to put the shotg the coach also allowed the boys to enter the broad jump, the high jump, and the high and low hurdles. With no practice whatever, the boys did remarkably well in these events. Fred Bouldin put the shot 41 feet 8 inches to capture first place in that event. John Scanlon and Paul Mendenhall placed first and third respectively in the 220-yard dash. First and third places in the 100-yard dash went to Scanlon and Ottosen, Sheridan won the high hurdles, with Niel- sen and Albright taking second and third places fine work he has done this year. He has a thorough knowledge of football fundamentals, and makes every effort to send a well-trained team on the field. He has won the respect not only of his own players, but of the opposing players and coaches as well. Coach Chubb has done a fine piece of work with the basketball this year. His team started slowly, but showed improvement with each game, and ended the season with a defeat of the league leaders. in the low hurdles. Jackson placed third in the high jump. The half-mile relay team, composed of Brewer, Ottosen, Mendenhall and Scanlon, all of whom will be back next year, placed first, with a time of 1 minute, 39 seconds. The Tigers did not place in the other events, but the following boys deserve mention for their work: Bill Queen, Roger Young, George Carras, Raymond Henry, Rupert Smith, Bob Huxtable and Bill McBurney. The relay team represented Westport in the K. U. Relays held in Lawrence, Kansas. In competition with the other Kansas City high school teams, the Bengal team placed well. Coach Bourrette plans to enter Bouldin, Mendenhall and Scanlon in the State Meet at Columbia on May 11. This group of boys, many of whom were not trained in the events they entered, have had a most enjoyable time participating. Even though this group is not a track team, it could very easily form the nucleus of a formidable one. Lacking the facilities for proper training, Westport several years abandoned track as a competitive sport. There has been much interest in golf at West- port during the past year, with the golf team plac- ing fourth in the Interscholastic Tournament. On four Saturday mornings during September and Oc- tober, the squad played matches on the Swope Park course. Joe Simmons and Rudy Schmidt made very satisfactory showings. Westport com- peted for the second consecutive year in the State Tournament, held at the University of Kansas City Golf Course. These same golfers upheld the honor of Westport, both shooting good scores. The six W winners in golf were: Rudy Schmidt, Ray Blomquist, Joe Simmons, Ralph Morrow, Ralph Eastman, and Conrad McMahill. All of these let- termen are seniors, so the field is open next year for underclassmen interested in golf. Mr. Carmichael and Mr. King, coaches, deserve much Commendation and praise for their fine Work.

TENNIS Bill and Fred H um plarey Eddie Kanrler Westport retained its high standing in tennis with the invincible co-captains, Bill and Fred Humphrey, winning the Interscholastic Tennis League Championship in doubles, and Bob Hall tak- ing top honors in singles. I The second doubles team, made up of Ben Czar- linsky and Ted Hartfelder, was defeated in the finals by the Humphrey twins. Eddie Kander, the second singles player, gave a good account of him- self for Westport. After having defeated Westport's own second team, the Humphreys traveled to Columbia, Mis- L Bob H all Ted Harzffelder amz' Ben Czarlinsky souri, to the State Tournament, and emerged, vic- torious, losing only four out of the forty-eight games in the matches. The singles champion, Bob Hall, also went to Columbia and was barely edged out of the Missouri championship in the finals. Mr. Fristoe, the tennis coach, very efficiently arranged the matches and coached the players. Under his line direction, and with promising new players coming into Westport, we look forward to a successful tennis season again next year. How- ever, it Will be difficult to replace the Humphreys, Kander and Czarlinsky, all of whom will be lost through graduation. Intramurals The purpose of intramural athletics is to give an opportunity to boys who do not participate in the major sports to engage in some other kind of athletics. The boys are not required to be members of a gym class to enter. They are urged to organ- ize teams and participate in the tournaments. Some games are played between the different gym classes, others between independent teams. Some of the intramural sports are: Basketball, football, base- ball, Volleyball, ping pong, and boxing. Following are the 1939-'40 winners of intramural events: SIX-MAN FOOTBALL Sam Jones CCaptainj Eugene Cox Joe F asl Jack Tucker Ward Barber Donald Holman James Colley TOUCH FOOTBALL Sam Jones QCaptainj Eugene Cox Bill Ingram Frank Hammond Joe Fasl GYM CLASS TOUCH FOOTBALL First H our Roy McCu1lick fCap- tainj Jack Tucker Ralph Bliss Dick Donnelly Rowland Timberlake Frank Josephson Jim Neustadt Albert Caudle Quentin King Mr. Kennedy is the head of the Intramural Depart- ment at Westport.

The winning of a WU depends upon two things: first, outstanding ability in sports, and second, exhibition of the best qualities of good sportsmanship. Four girls are eligible for the pin this year. These girls have striven for top honors in the major sports-hockey, basketball, baseball, tennis, and swimming. The pins are awarded- at the Senior Day Assembly. -s sg Mgymg Brgmnlmn Hortenxe Green man by Miss Ivy Clayton.

The teams this year are very strong, therefore, the competition should be un- usually keen. The seniors are spurred on by the knowledge that if they win the baseball cham- pionship, their names will be engraved on the silver loving cup. The baseball season is closed with a picnic at one of the city parks, at which the let- ters are awarded. The picnic is open to all the girls of the school. The members of the baseball teams this year are as follows: SENIORS Marguerite Clark, Margie Golding, Hortense Greenman, Mayme Bresnahan, Sarajeane Keller, TENNIS Tennis, like baseball, is a sport of the late spring, so the 1939 champions are given recognition this year. The singles champion of '39 was the runner- up of '38, Hortense Greenman. Although she was only a junior, Hortense exhibited great skill in tri- umphing over all her opponents. During this last summer she played tennis a great deal, which vastly improved her game. In all probability, Hortense MINOR SPORTS . One of the most popular intramural activities of the physical education department is social danc-' ing. The classes are held after school in the gym for both girls and boys, who thus have an opportunity to learn the fundamental principles of social danc- ing and the latest dance steps. These classes not only help the boys and girls to overcome their bash- fulness and to become better dancers, but also give them an opportunity to meet their school fellows outside the classroom. Horseback riding is another after school activity Maxine McCall, Mildred McPherson, Doris Put- nam, Jean O'Donnell, Lillian Sandy, Virginia Way.

Last ycar's runner-up, Marjorie Pattie, is participating in the matches again this year. The doubles cham- pions of '39 were Mary Ellen Williamson and Carol Eastman, two sophomores, who defeated the junior runners-up, Jean O'Donnell and Mayme Bresna- han. for the girls, offered for both advanced riders and beginners. It is valuable as an outside exercise and a sport which may be carried on in later life. Another popular recreation among the girls is table tennis. The tournament is open to anyone in the school and many participate. The matches are played before and after school in the gym and in the playroom. There were no doubles teams in the tournament this year. Doris Anderson, last year's singles champion, repeated this year, de- feating Anita Spindel in the finals.

Although both teams fought hard, the Westport girls finally got the upper hand and won by a large margin. After the game, refresh- ments were served. The play day, held each year in Kansas City for the purpose of bringing the schools together in the interests of good sport, took place at Manual this year. After a strenuous morning of basketball, in which both games were won by the Westport team, luncheon was served. RESERVE OFFICERS' TRAINING CORPS uf. l I Lefi LT. COL. BURR P. IRWIN Looking back over this past year, the Westport Battalion as a whole feels that it has achieved its purpose in developing potential leaders and future citizens of the United States. Under the direct supervision of Sergeant Hilton and the indirect control of Lieutenant Colonel Irwin, the purpose of the Reserve Officers' Train- ing Corps has been instilled in the minds of the cadets. Sergeant Hilton, serving his second year as a sergeant-instructor, has raised ' the Westport Right SGT. WILBUR S. HILTON 'Battalion to new heights. Along with the added responsibility of training over one hundred men in the movements of the Colonial Army for the Circus, he has performed his other duties with a democratic attitude that demands the respect of all. The cadets of the Westport Battalion see in Lieutenant Colonel Irwin a willing desire to help any and all who may seek his advice and counsel. To come in contact with either of these two leaders is to come in Contact with a citizen dedicated to the education of the American youth so as to produce better citizens.

Trained under the old regulations, these officers labored under a serious hardship but came out remarkably well. To be truthful, two types of drill were taught in the West- port Battalion during the year. Along with the new drill, five of these officers took time out to assist in the training of 102 men in the exercises of the foot soldier of 1775. This latter drill was used for the R. O. T. C. Circus on April 15 and was presented with great success. Many weeks of valuable time were taken to teach this Colonial Unit, weeks that could have been used to perfect the regular drill for government inspection and for Field Day. The deadline for all Herald print- ing was set before either of these two events took place, and it is impossible to publish the results in this book. The date for government inspection is May 2 and for Field Day May 13. In these events the result of the year's work is compared with the results of the other high schools in the city. It is hoped that our unit will rank high.

On Armistice Day, at Gov- ermnent Inspection, on Regimental Field Day, and on numerous afternoons, this corps provided music for the marching of the men. From this corps came the buglers who assisted in the flag ceremony before and after school. The men who turned out for practice sessions received special uniforms to wear whenever the Drum and Bugle Corps played. These uniforms were in prom- inence on these special occasions as everyone has noted.

In a field in which competition was stronger than ever before, the Bengal team' emerged second in the city matches. The captain of the team, Tom Greenamyer, for the second consecutive year placed first in the individual fir- ing. He also received irst place in competition with expert riflemen from eight states. After the eliminations for positions, the Rifle Team was made up of the following: Captain Greenamyer, Captain Jones, First Sergeant Chinn, First Sergeant Gould and Sergeant Asher. All members received the expert rifleman award, which is proof of their excellence. Sergeant Hilton will have to scout for new Rifle Team material next year, for John Asher is the only returning member, the rest being seniors.

While the students are in the various class- rooms, at least three of these men are on duty pa- trolling the halls. These men see that all lockers are securely fastened, and allow no one in the halls without proper authority. The Lost and Found Department was turned over to the S. G. Roy Roach Leroy Kelley Alan Mistachkin Edgar Palmer Jack Downs John Miller Men at the beginning of the first semester, and in the course of the year over one thousand lost articles have been returned to their owners. With- out these men, a careless mistake of leaving n lock unfastened might result in a serious loss of books and clothing, rather than just a trip to the Lost and Found Department. THE MILITARY BALL Through the arch made by the sabers of the officers, came the 1940 R. O. T. C. Queen. Chosen by the senior cadets of the Battalion to reign at the annual,Military Ball held on February 23, Miss Betty Glenn is a true representative of the ideals of Queenship. After the Queen's presentation, the Esquires of Rhythm played in royal fashion' for a dance in honor of Miss Glenn. THE R. O. T. C. CIRCUS Continuing the tradition of presenting fine en- tertainment for the annual R. O. T. C. Circus, 102 Westport Cadets, dressed in colonial uniforms, filed onto the arena floor of the Municipal Audi- torium on April S to present the drill of the foot soldier of the year 1775. As the drill progressed, the similarity between the modern drill and this This year's guest list included Lieutenant Colo- nel and Mrs. Burr P. Irwin, Sergeant and Mrs. Hilton, Sergeant and Mrs. Archie Morris, as well as many faculty members and cadet officers of the other Kansas City Battalions. Another triumphant success, the 1940 Ball was enjoyed by each and every person who attended. colonial drill was noted by Lieutenant Seibel as he commented over the public address system. To climax an evening of superior entertainment, Major General Percy Bishop, Commander of the Seventh Corps Area, and his staff inspected the Colonial Militia in the same manner as General Washingtoii might have, during the Revolutionary War. Qmfm of the Ball, Betty Glenn The Military Ball Reaches Ifs Climax The Colonial Unit Drills for fbt' Circus CITIZENSI-IIP IN R. O. T. C. On July 2, 1862, the Congress of the United States passed the Morrill Act. This act provided that two years of compulsory military training should be offered in all schools that had received land grants from the government. This laid the foundation for the R. O. T. C. as it is today. During the World War, it was perceived that all schools, whether public or private, offered a select field for the training of officers for our forces in time of war. Thus the R. O. T. C. was extended to high schools and colleges in addition to the land- grant colleges. The R. O. T. C. as we know it today consists of two divisions, the Senior and the junior. The Senior division is in the colleges and military schools and consists of a two year basic course and a two year advanced course. The Junior division in the high schools offers three years of work and prepares the student: for further R. O. T. C. work in college. The public seems to think that the R. O. T. C. instills in the student a longing for war. A careful examination will reveal exactly the opposite. The effect of the instruction of the student in the mod- ern methods of war and in the use of modern weapons has been a sobering offset to any romantic conception of war. The whole course is designed to show the true facts of war. In the happy event that the youth of today will not be asked to defend America on the battlefield of war, the R. O. T. C. training of these boys will not be worthless. The true purpose of this train- ing is defined in the Mission of the R. O. T. C. which states: The Mission of the R. O. T. C. is to awaken in the student an appreciation of the obligations of citizenship, to prepare him to dis- charge his duties as a citizen, and to qualify him as a leader whether in peace or in war. From this we gather that the primary purpose of the R. O. T. C. is to make the student a better citizen Who, if need be, can be called on to defend his country. This course, if it accomplishes its purpose, is thor- oughly justified and is entitled to popular support. The R. O. T. C. offers an excellent course of benefit to the individual in the following respects: It improves the physical health, strength, and appearance of the student. It inculcates respect for the law and for con- stituted authority. It makes the student amicable to discipline and control. It arouses the spirit of practical patriotism, re- spect for and pride in our flag and our country, and a readiness to serve them in time of need. It develops self-discipline and control, self re- spect, self confidence, resourcefulness, courage, ambition, and industry. It promotes courtesy and consideration for others. It fosters habits of neatness, cleanliness, order, and system. It inspires the spirit of cooperative action or team-play. It develops the latent powers of leadership and executive ability. The R. O. T. C. helps to create high minded gentlemen who will succeed in life and make good citizens.

We could say Lady Killer, or would that be proper? Anyway he's tall, dark and handsome, with nice manners and a 1940 Oldsmobile. Betty Glenn-Most Pop1zlai Girl. , Not very large, but she overcomes that in many ways. Well liked by both the boys and girls, and known throughout the school. i Walter Root-Boy who has done the most for Wcsfport. Member of almost every possible organization' in Westport. Popular and prominent with all. Mildred Lane-Girl who bas done the most for W0stpo1't. A Truly the only girl who could properly represent Westport. Outstanding scholastically and socially. Fred Bouldin-Bcsi physique. . There's no doubt about this choice, as one can easily see, to see Bouldin is to believe. Martha Russell-Best figure.

There's not much that can be said, just ask the boys. Don't think the girls aren't envious, they only wish they knew her technique. Bill Gilbert-Best looking boy.

Chosen by our students for this position, Phyllis has all it takes to justify the choice. Jack Smith-Best boy dancer. He's not very,large and that's a misfortune for some of the tall girls.

This poor girl is liter- ally cut to pieces by young chaps eager for a dance with her. But she doesn't mind, just says, It's fun! , Jack Gregory-Best dressed boy. Never can it be said that jack was improperly dressed, or without the latest things from Esquire. Dorothy Robinson-Best dressed girl. Hoppy sets the styles for Westport's feminine sex. She's first with all the fads, and possessor of Westport's largest and neatest wardrobe. Lucille Bethel and Bill McGrannahan-Best known couple. No one knows when this little affair started.

We predict a bright future for this queen of so many hearts. Robb Johnson-Boy wifb best personality. How to win friends and influence people seems to be right down his alley.

George Robinson and Bill jones didn't come to Westport years sooner. Carol Eastman has such a hard time trying to de- cide who she will take to the dances. Phyllis joy wrote to Hope Hudson. Bill and Fred Humphrey are such men of mystery. Frankie Tims stopped going steady. Nor-man Nicholson and jim Costello, as large as they are, didn't play football or basketball. Kenneth Bigus didn't take a certain girl out to dinner after he won fifty dollars. All the boys got all those horrible Crude Cuts. Royal Don Carlos Martin doesn't use his middle name more often. Benny Czarlinsky married so many women. Some- thing like nine, wasn't it? Bill Queen is so versatile. He draws, acts, plays football, and manages the basketball team. The feminine sex allowed Harold Clark to be pres- ident of the Junior Class. The teachers give night work over the week-ends and expect you to have it on Monday. So many people are going steady. The Pundits always depend on program-saver Martha Orr. There were so many Senior girls absent from the after-school sports. ' Gus Nichols can sell anyone anything that they don't want or need. Ginny, Betty and Mandie took a three-day vaca- tion trip to Topeka!! Mary Lon Ambrose came to school with a broken knee cap, when she had such a good excuse to stay home.

Calvin Weiss, joe Tims, and Iack joy wear those NESQUIRE-ish overall pants. So many of the Seniors have that Don't give a darn attitude. The mirror on the June Mad set seemed to be all hot and bothered. The Auto Club has so many members, especially when the Herald pictures are taken. Robb Iohnson lost his way with the women. Madeleine Willia1n',s mind seems to be up in Law- rence. Wawen Larson is supposed to be able to do every- thing for the Herald. Monna O'Cain eats so much lunch. It's almost always twenty-five cents Worth. jack Smith tells everyone of his super colossal times. The Clays and the Irvings are always arguing. Harry Flapanis girl friend, Evelyn Green, is called Hedy LaMarr. Paul and Leland Mendenhall act so unlike each other. Mary Lamjmzan is such an ardent Roosevelt fan. Margaret Brewer is so temperamental. Maybe it's the artist in her. Charles is always eating a lemon. COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT ROGER WILLIAMS- Must our parents always sign our grade cards?

Ten seconds ago one of his recent prospects became a full-fledged CUSTOMER, right on the dotted line! Here's how it happened fjust about as John planned itj. When john called, the prospect was too busy to give him more than a hurried live minutes. John did a commendable job, covered every sales point he could in that limited time. But he did one thing more: He left a booklet that went right on selling the moment Mr. Prospect had a little time to spare. It was full of pertinent facts, interest- ingly presented. And now it has closed the deal while John is catching up on hard-earned sleep. Printing gets things done. It may be the very productive sales tool of John Smith, or the equally important stationery and record forms for his company's business use . . . but no matter whether it is the Westport Herald or one of the many other uses for printing, The Lowell Press is al- ways happy to plan with you to get the most effective good from your printing.
