Faces of Both Extra- Curricular � Devotion and Hilarity Show Through Activities Westport's corridors —hushed for three long months —once again echo with the sounds of a new school year. Students shout and laugh freely, caught up in the static excitement. Lockers slam. Teachers and administrators explain and direct. Feet shuffle and bells ring S-S-SEN-I-I-IOR again echoes through the halls. A new school year has begun . . . Caught Away from Be Human, Too ... a new school year that will, in many ways, be like the years that had gone before and like the years that will follow. For Westport is steeped in her tradition. Many of the same activities will be repeated, many of the same disappointments, many of the same victories. Yes, it is a new school year... Familiar Scenes, Teachers Are Found To 5 In Any Position or Active Studying ... a new school year that will be, at the same time, distinctive and different from any other. A new senior class will take over. New organizations and activities will be born. Memories that will belong to this school year alone will be formed. And thus, a new school year at Westport High begins... 6 Place They Choose, Students Pursue 7 Academic The Duties of the Big Three: Leading, Administrating, and 10 Co-Ordinating Leading, administrating, co-ordinating are synonymous with our present adminis- tration. Under the leadership of our princi- pal, William D. Evans, the administrating and co-ordinating of our vice-principals. Gene Banaka and Fiske Miles, Westporters truly share a feeling of growing progress and stature. The members of the administration work so closely with each other that they are an entity. Mr. Evans supports a smiling face and a constant understanding towards the student. Mr. Banaka and Mr. Miles are en- forcers of the standards and rules set forth to all Westporters. The harmony with which our administration operates is becoming in- creasingly apparent in a greater appre- ciation and respect for the principles and ideals of Westport. ABOVE: Mr. Banaka. in a familiar pose, discusses the recording: of absences with a member of the office stu- dent aid. BELOW: Mr Miles explains some of the rules g-oveming: attendance to a new student. Counselors and Office Staff BETTY HUGHES 12 Counselors are indispensable to the stu- dent body. Always available for consulta- tion, these four workers help students adjust to teachers, other students, the school in general, and the future. The counseling staff offers encouragement and guidance, along with instilling self-assurance and responsi- bility in young people. Each of the coun- selors at Westport has literally hundreds of students seeking his aid every day. This is, indeed, an indispensable service. If there are some Westporters who feel they are “loaded down” with paper work, all they have to do to quickly quell this opinion is to look in on the office staff. Arranging appointments, making announcements, fill- ing out tardy cards, and sorting report cards include only a small part of the garrison of tasks for which the office staff is responsi- ble. Always calm and patient, these women enable the school to function smoothly and accurately. An important message is relayed from office to class- room.

The cafeteria staff is responsible for prepar- ing the food for the entire faculty and stu- dent body. Throug h the years remarkable service has been provided, and the staff keeps itself continually receptive to new ideas or suggestions. The custodial staff maintains the physi- cal aspect of Westport by keeping her win- dow, halls, and classrooms neat and clean. These two services often g o unrecognized; however, they play a major role in the well- being of Westport and her students. Julie Saunders. Elevator Operator; Carl Whittmore. Custodian.

Language Arts MARVIN JEANNE BURL BROOKS FERRAND HARMON The Language Arts Department at West- port provides a vital foundation for every student’s future by the teaching of the English language Aside from instructing the student on the tools of English, it also affords the opportunity to become familiar with American and English Literature. Those who excel in the study of English may go on to take one or more of the three foreign languages offered. Spanish. Latin, and French. The study of these languages is further enriched by the use of the modern- ly equipped language laboratories, which provide earphones and tapes so that the student may listen to native speakers and concurrently improve their accent. As a sup- plement to the knowledge of our native tongue, a foreign language broadens a per- son’s scope of communication in a world that is growing smaller every day. 14 ABOVE Bill Johnson and Cindy Major.

The Fine Arts department offers train- ing’ in subjects that require hard work and talent. Speech is a course designed to de- velop the individual's ability to speak both correctly and before groups. Band and or- chestra promote development of individual instrumental talent, through enabling the student to choose from a wide selection of instruments to excel in. Also the band en- gages in many outside performances which enables them to further sharpen their per- forming skills. General music classes are available to students who wish to sing and study music. The Girls’ Glee Club and Choir enables the talented and able student fur- ther to develop vocal skill through not only classroom work but through performing at various public functions. ABOVE: World Geography gives the student a better perspective towards current world conditions. BELOW: Often a student's first lessons in citizenship come from his freshman “Civics class The Social Studies Department is a necessary and vital part of the school cur- riculum. Through World History and Amer- ican History, students gain a basic knowl- edge of the past which is essential in intel- ligently planning for the future. Family Relations, a course which prepares the young adult for future marriage and life in today’s world, helps the student to learn how to be able to get along with others in his society. Contemporary Issues, a one se- mester honors course, is a stimulating chal- lenge to the good student in that he actively participates in research and discussion on pertinent topics of modern times. Eco- nomics, also a one semester honors course, deals with the production and control of wealth —how a society earns and spends its money. Geography enriches the student’s knowledge of the earth in total-its compo- sition, peoples, and climate. 18 Social Studies ROLAND E CLARENCE “Bud DONNA CRANE FRENCH MEDINA WILLIAM A PATRICIA JERRY KENT MERRYMAN NEUHAUS ROARK One of the many thing's that Mr Lindbergh, student teacher, learned while at Westport was that a student teacher is still a student to a teacher.

V BONNEY BOURRETTE Laboratory work gives students basic knowledge in laboratory procedures besides study in cell structure and its vital activities. RAYMOND DICE THERESA KUN The mathematics department offers several courses to the student interested in advancing in today’s mathematical and sci- entific world. Varying from the basic to the very specific, one may take general mathe- matics, geometry, two levels of algebra, and modern introductory analysis. The science department goes hand in hand with the future. The research field in all of the sciences is one that is ever pres- ent and ever growing. To advance scien- tifically, good scientists are needed in medi- cine, space exploration, and countless other fields. General Science lays a foundation for and introduces many fields of science. More specifically, earth science deals with the study of the elements, soil, and distin- guishing marks of our planet. Biology and human science enable the student to learn about plant and animal life and man himself. Chemistry and physics challenge the good student what with the study of atoms and elements and how they shape our world. 20 Math and Science SUSAN M DON W AMELIA MIDDENDORF NELSON SMITH MARSHALL J ELLA WILLIAM SPIEGEL WILLIAMS WOOD One of the many things that one learns while enrolled in Earth Science is the use of topographic maps Susy Q provides a shock for many of Mr. Bourette’s students, but here it appears that one of Susy Q's friends gave Mr Bourette quite a shock. 21 Practical Arts The Practical Arts Department, as its title implies, attempts to give the student mastery of several basic skills. Various courses are offered. Typing is a rapid method of writing almost necessary for future secretaries or college-bound students. Bookkeeping is a skill that can be applied to almost every facet of business, adjusting family finances, managing the wealth of business concerns, and keeping bank rec- ords in order. Metal Shop, Wood Shop, and Drafting give the student the experience of working with various materials and the chance to plan and design works of their own. Driver's Education is a must for the stu- dent who wishes to become a good, safe driver. This course emphasizes safety in driving by teaching the student not only how to drive, but the best, safest method pos- sible. The students get not only classroom instruction, but individual behind-the-wheel training. ABOVE: A student in Driver's Education obtains be- hind the wheel training in the classroom.

JOHN LANCASTER TABER 24 Vocational Arts The Vocational Technical-Department plays a major role not only in the Westport curriculum, but in the future of many West- port students. The Commercial Art section of the de- partment provides training in illustration, layout, and design. Graphic Arts teaches the student various aspects of printing: machine operation, layout, and camera and photo work. The Electronics division presents work and training with theory, which can open doors to boundless opportunity. The air conditioning and refrigeration program affords the student a chance to learn the fine points of these two skills — both vast fields providing many good jobs. Future secretaries or businessmen par- ticipate in the clerical and secretarial prac- tice courses. In this block students learn filing, typing, office machine operation, and other tasks common to any office sit- uation. The Vocational-Technical department offers a unique opportunity to any Westport student. With well qualified instructors and excellent equipment one can actually learn an intricate skill and, upon gradu- ation, go into their field with little or no fur- ther training. Training in the Vocational Arts sometimes requires long hours of practice to develop the skill necessary ABOVE: Although the panel wired with various con- nections may appear impossible to understand, these boys find their electronics training has provided enough knowledge for easy comprehension BELOW Graphic Arts not only gives a basic background in printing techniques but provides the school with a great deal of its printed material. The clerical and secretarial practice courses, as many of the other block programs, give aid to the school in var- ious services, ranging from typing tests to running off programs. -Jilin Physical Education Girl's physical education provides growth in many areas, including the winter sport of volleyball Common Learnings is a blocked period of study exclusive to eighth graders. His- tory. English, and spelling are taught dur- ing this time. In this class the eighth grade student begins to realize what will come to be expected of him in high school. Common learnings is the class in which the student makes the transition from grade school to high school. The Physical Education department is tantamount to building and maintaining good strong bodies and in exposing the stu- dent to the importance of discipline. Just as the brain should be developed, so should the body so as to make a whole individual. Various programs are used during the year to accomplish this. In the early fall and spring outdoor sports are used. DAVID L.

Bruce Cady. Dan Cox. Cathy Scott. Patty Hill, Chairman. The American Field Service is an inter- national organization designed to pro- mote friendship and understanding be- tween many countries of the world. To achieve its purpose, the American Field Service sponsors a student exchange pro- gram whereby capable students from the various participating countries “exchange countries” with each other for a school year. This year Westport’s foreign exchange student was Lambretta Menozzi from Italy. She will return to Italy with her experiences and impressions of the United States, thus helping to promote the understanding between countries that the American Field Service stands for. Greeted at the bus station, Lambretta gets her first look at her new family, the W D. Harrymans. 30 to Westport ’67 One of Lambretta’s favorite activities was Pep Club Serving- as a Letter Sweater T. she participated in all of the various activities including the weekly sale of ribbons. One of the major projects financing A F S students is the sale of Bells for Peace. Here. Lambretta and Patty Hill. A F S chairman, are preparing a display for the Westport Shopping Center. Another of the A F S money-making projects was the annual Wesger Revue. This year the show began with an Italian dance performed by Lambretta.

Valedictorian, and 1967 Yale National Scholar, proves that study is the only road to scholastic success. The organization best known for honoring Westport’s students of superior academic achievement is her Honor Society. Member- ship in this organization is limited to those students with a 3.1 or higher grade average. Further distinction is given with the award- ing of Gold Torches with one, two, or three pearls —the varying number of pearls indi- cating differing degrees of achievement. The Honor Society is, however, more than an organization to honor outstanding stu- dents. With the continuation of its tutoring program, the Honor Society provides a val- uable service of Westport.

The Student Council strived this year to fulfill its major objective —the betterment of the school. Meetings of the Council were held regularly, but these were merely sur- face evolvements of much other important work, not seen by the average student. The collection of the funds for the con- tinuation of the AFS program at Westport has been the main project of the Student Council. Money for this purpose was col- lected from such activities as the sale of “Bells for Peace.” the “Wesger Revue,” and the preparation and sale of student directories. The Student Council has made the wishes of the Student body known to the administration and has helped the students to understand and accept the feelings of the administrative staff and faculty. The Student Council has done much to bridge the gap between these two sometimes- conflicting groups —to help alleviate that conflict-and to bring greater harmony and well-being to Westport. Mr Merryman. Student Council sponsor. often took the responsibility of explaining important matters to the representatives gathered at a meeting. FRONT ROW: Jeanette Nygren, Grace Hombugle.

Each club, composed of members who feel a keen interest in one of the foreign languages offered at West- port, strives in its own way to achieve these objectives. The language clubs have been sponsored by the respective foreign lan- guage teachers of Westport’s faculty. Each of the three clubs has met regularly and has sponsored numerous projects to promote better understanding between differing world cultures. 36 Extensively Through Language Clubs SPANISH CLUB, FRONT ROW Mrs Poor, Marguerite Martinez.

It is city-wide in scope and there are ten girls in the club at Westport, five juniors, and five seniors. This year a Christmas tea was planned along with various activities, in- cluding a trip to Kansas University. The FTA, sponsored by Mrs. Smith, is an organization designed to bring together those students who wish to engage in a teaching career sometime in the future. Members do service to Westport by ushering at programs and taking part in the tutorial program. This year’s Categories team competed against Topeka West High School. Tension mounted and the battle of wits resulted in Westport’s narrow loss of 26-22, in a game that was challenging and well played. Elizabeth Thurlow.

The Future Business Leaders of America is designed for Westporters who, in the future, plan to embark on a career in the business world. This year's agenda included a dollar sale at the Talent Show, tours of business concerns, and a regional con- vention at Van Horn High School in April. The purpose of the club is to develop in the prospective businessman or woman knowledge of how to conduct intraper- sonal relationships with others in the field, and how to best learn effective busi- ness methods. Offer Diversity Chess Club members have met regularly and faithfully to improve their techniques in the game and for the enjoyment derived from it. Under the sponsorship of Mr. Crane, the members of this small but enthusiastic club have benefited from many hours of stimulating competition in the fascinating game of chess. A new club to join the roster of West- port's organizations this year was the Sci- ence Club. Interest in such an organization was immediate and enthusiastic, and the members, under the sponsorship of Mr. Bodenhamer, have spent many interesting and rewarding hours since the organiza- tion’s beginning.

Pre-game enthusiasm is displayed on the Westport goal post by that anxious Letter Sweater “S”. An integral part of Westport through the years has been her Pep Club —and this year has been no different. The enthusiasm and excitement this group lends to sports events and assemblies are the best-known service rendered to the school. But the Pep Club serves other equally important functions — the Pep Club’s services this year have in- cluded the addition of our Activities Booth, the purchase of jackets for the coaching staff, the sponsoring of a carnival, activi- ties connected with the American Royal Parade, and many other worthwhile projects. The spirit provided by the Letter Sweater girls, cheerleaders, and the entire Pep Club, under the sponsorship of Mr. Yoesel, at games is immeasurable. Their enthusiasm has been contagious for the entire student body —the enthusiasm of a spirited and hard- working group.

Membership in “W” Club is granted upon the achievement of a letter in one of West- port's major sports. The organization, spon- sored by Mr. Little, has worked closely with the Pep Club this year in promoting school spirit and the betterment of Westport. TDSC has actively contributed to the extra-curricular life of Westport this year. This organization has, by various activities throughout the year, strived diligently and constantly to bring an honest appreciation of drama to Westport.

The Midtown Youth Council is con- cerned with promoting- traffic safety among high school students in the Westport area. Various area schools are members of the council. At the meetings there are films and lectures given by guest speakers on the problem of traffic safety. The Tiger Den Board is composed of a group of industrious students who plan and carry out the project of organizing the bi-monthly Tiger Dens. They decorate and take part in the inevitable clean-up afterwards. It’s hard work but along with the work comes the joy of mingling and sharing ideas with fellow students. Athena art club is concerned with developing in the student an appreciation of various forms of art. Only one of the many endeavors of the art club this year was the monthly decoration of the bulletin board in the front hall. Driving Are Outgrowths of Several Clubs ATHENA. FRONT ROW Doris Turner.

This year Dana, to- gether with the other two girls’ literary societies, held an Intersociety Prospective Member’s Party which combined the effort, skills, and assets of the three clubs. Also, this year Dana held a car wash and was hostess of the Intersociety Tea. These, along with the many other activities that literary societies engage in, composed this year’s agenda of Dana Literary Society.

Her members have been encouraged in their appreciation of literature and have attempted, in turn, to foster this appreciation in others. Sponsored by Mrs. Agron and Mrs. Medina, Promethean’s busy schedule has included prospective members parties, acceptance teas, an alumnus tea, participa- tion in the annual Literary Contest, the adopting of an orphan at Christmas, and money-making projects.

Pundit Literary Society. Her members can look back to a busy, profitable year —a year filled with prospec- tive members parties, formal teas, service projects, money-making’ projects, activities designed to promote the appreciation of liter- ature, and numerous other activities. The memories of Pundit will serve as an inspiration to all her members — those who, after this year, will leave the group and those who will return to accept the leader- ship of the society. For all, the Pundit motto will serve as a guide to “weigh,, consider, express.” Diane Gobble V ice-President Inter-Society Representative Cindy Major Chaplain Sharon Happel Sgt.-at-Arms Si Peggy Pickering Junior Critic Patty Hill President Marguerite Martinez Treasurer Literary Critic Debbie Harryman Inter-Society Representative Vice-President Linda Erwin Pari iamentarian Lambretta Menozzi 52 Cheri Kohler Secretary Treasurer Betty Sue William Literary Critic Secretary Sandy Major Historian Linda Williamf Sophomore Criu Patty Brush Patty Keith Lynda O’Neil Rosie Rousseau Phyllis McClymond Becky Moyes Susan Poindexter Nikki Watson Janet Dover Jamy Jones Carol Olendorf Janet Rice Marine!!

This year, an attempt was made by the club as a whole to successfully carry out projects of both a literary and social nature. The fall brought the annual Dana-Browning football game, which saw such formidable opponents from both sides that no one was declared the victor. Again on the social side. Browning actively participated in the Inter-society Dance, and sponsored the sale of cinnamon suckers in an effort to provide economic security for the club. The liter- ary aspect of the club saw a new develop- ment—the writing of work for each grade period, while the club also entered several pieces in the spring Inter-society contest.

The club's motto is “I would rather fail in something I knew was right, than succeed in something I knew was wrong.” This society, as do the others, wishes to promote the appreciation of literature and of liter- ary endeavors. This year, aside from routine activities, the society held a car smash after school as a money-making project, and sponsored adoption of an orphan for Christmas. Wilson’s sponsor is Mr. David Jones, who has hopes and aspirations for a bright future for Wilson.

Reporting: the important events of the academic and extra-curricular life of West- port, and providing: a forum for student and faculty opinion, has been the school news- paper. Many long: hours of work have evolved into enjoyable and interesting- issues of the Crier. Other than the actual publication of the newspaper, this year’s activities have included the sponsorship of a Christmas Card Post Office, the publication of a history of Westport, the printing of souvenir pro- grams for Li’l Abner, and many other worthwhile activities. The diligent work of the Crier staff members, sponsored by Mr. Sicking, has been well worth the effort. The appreciation shown by the student body, faculty, and administration have repaid the time-con- suming undertakings of the Crier staff. at Present and for the Future This year the Herald Staff has worked long and hard to produce a yearbook which every Westport student will be proud of. The staff has learned the importance of dedication and cooperation in order to effectively achieve its goals. Despite handi- caps such as a lack of working space, pho- tographers, staff members, and a substantial budget, we have managed to come through by each staff member’s willingness to work and share the load. Three Herald representatives attended the National Scholastic Press Association Convention in Chicago this November, where they became aware of nation-wide developments in yearbook production. Some of the projects undertaken by the staff this year were a candid sale, paper sale, and election of a yearbook queen, whereby the Herald earned sorely needed money. The history, memories, and honors brought to Westport is the Herald, and the Herald staff members are tools whereby the annual story of Westport may be told. ABOVE: Carla Brady. Jeanette Nygren.

Starting on August 15, the boys could be seen practicing on Gillham Field, which added to the great deal of practice time put in after school began. The team found itself rather short on valuable experience, and be- sides the Seniors and Juniors normally comprising a Varsity team, many Sopho- mores found places on the squad. A schedule with a widened scope provided the team with ten games to play, three non-league and seven in league competition. The season, if measured by the won-loss record, could not be said to be flatly good or bad. The team ended with a 3-3-1 league record, a tally of 3-5-2 in over-all competition, and ranked well in the league. The games in which Westport was engaged provided en- joyment for the spectators and sport and honor for those participating. stport Football Schedule ST ? 00 22 SEJ f one i00 2� JSiUlS 008 3K3l ? «• « ABOVE: The fast-action play of the (tame is shown through this shot of an attempted pass completion.

Behind the Varsity squad stand two other squads, lesser in stature, but just as great in spirit and participation - the B- team and Freshman teams. While not re- ceiving’ the support or attention that the Varsity does, these squads play for the chance to g’ain knowledge of and experience in the game. This year’s B-team suffered somewhat this year when it lost many of its players to the Varsity, which used them to fill up their ranks. Therefore, a 1-6 record and 8th place in leag-ue standing’s is easier to understand. The Freshman squad did fare better thoug’h, as their 5-2 record and 2nd place standing indicates. The efforts of both teams have been for g-ood cause, for the par- ticipants have learned many lessons and techniques during- actual competition where they must be learned. These boys, enriched by their participation on the B-team and Freshman squads this year, will probably be those who can be called on in the near future to fill spaces left by those on higher teams.

The experience gained by the team members was immeasurable, and due to the fact that the team consisted of seniors through freshmen, this experience should pay valu- able dividends in the future. The boys showed their determination in participation even though adverse conditions were present throughout the season and there was the realization that this sport draws little glory. The team was found to be. in the words of Coach Jones. “ . . . potentially strong, but we have been wracked by sick- ness and injury . . . coupled with the fact that most of the teams against which we par- ticipate have improved substantially.” This summation, made near the beginning of the season, seems to be rather an underestimate, for the team did fare fairly well, including a first place in district competition and a very commendable fifth place in the state.

And Miles to Go Before I Sleep . . . Composed of just six regular partici- pants, this year’s B-Team cross-country squad found itself getting much the same training as the Varsity squad. Nightly prac- tices began the first day of school, lasting one to two hours. Endurance work, interval- speed work, and repetition of running dis- tances and up and down hills basically comprised the practices. These exercises built stamina, endurance, and agility, all of which are necessary to compete well. Losing some of the boys who would nor- mally run on this squad to the Varsity, dependence fell largely on the underclass- men As meets passed by, the team gained the practical experience of actual competi- tion, which was sharply shown by the grad- ual development of the team as the season progressed. Judging from the experience and lessons learned by this team, fine per- formances should be seen in the future. ABOVE: Along with a victory comes the extensive phys- ical strain as reflected in this runner’s face BELOW: A string of Westport runners, caught after just starting a meet, head for what they hope will be a victory Students Profit from Intramural Sports Every day after school, the two gyms echo with the sounds of Westport’s Intra- mural program. Participation in a wide range of sports is offered to those who display an interest in the activity. From this program come many of Westport’s finest athletic personalities. But whether or not the program led a young athlete to a place on one of Westport’s teams, the stu- dent always derived satisfaction and ful- fillment from the Intramural program.

Operating under the obvious handi- cap of having only one returning letterman, and thus a definite lack of experience, the Varsity players could only make up for this by increased effort and spirit. Although this inexperience should not be used as a crutch or excuse, Coach Little definitely felt that many of their close games could have been won if only the team had been more seasoned. In fact, many of their games were actually decided in the final minutes of play, and more often than not, Westport was on the losing end. Towards the end of the season, however, definite improvement could be seen as the team began to jell, and it was then that fine basketball skills and techniques really began to show.

Long Hours of Practice Bring Both Victory and Defeat Beginning- November 1, Westport's bas- ketball players found themselves faced with a nightly practice averaging two hours. Continuous drilling on certain basic skills, techniques, and procedures was used to thoroughly familiarize and condition these boys with the playing of the game. When these skills were applied to actual com- petitive games, it isn’t outwardly apparent that they were learned well, but a careful examination of all factors involved will show a fine effort was indeed put forth. When all the games had been played, and the final records were examined, the boys had fought to a total of six wins and fell to defeat seventeen times, which put them in a tie for eighth place in the league.

Finding much of their potential strength gone when a number of their play- ers were taken by the Varsity squad, these boys found themselves having to work extra hard to make up for the loss. Combined with many other reasons, the team found itself faced with a multitude of unfavorable factors which more or less explains their win-loss record 1 8 8th place rank in the final standings.

B-Team and Frosh Squads —an Investment in Future Greatness With the fundamental purpose of pre- paring1 the participants for future spots on the Varsity Squad, the Freshman basket- ball players found themselves gaining ex- perience while going through the same drills and exercises. While initiative was provided by the hope of future glory for themselves and their school, these boys struggled to gain as much personal ex- perience as possible along the way. In actual league competition, the boys fought to 4 wins and 5 losses, while two more losses were chalked up in additional play; weighed against the records of other area teams, this Frosh squad landed the fourth-place position in standings Forecasting future greatness.

This years Band Majors squeezed in a few moments of practice before the Westport Day Parade The Westport Band, combining- the tal- ents of musical ability and marching pre- cision, found a full slate this year. The fall brought the season for marching, which daily saw the band members practicing marching routines on the area streets. Their skill was shown not only to the school’s neighbors, but the public in general through the various parades. The precision of the marching was matched only by the music, which could also be sampled at various programs. The band played for the Bow Horn, assemblies, football games, Talent Show, and the Dis- trict Music Contest. Under the leadership of Mr. Duane Miller, they proved to be good ambassadors for Westport. Band and Stage Band Brought Musical Enjoyment Through Many Performances The Stage Band is a group of definitely enthusiastic people, who find themselves often called upon to entertain the student body. Even though their spirit is shown through their actual playing, the basis of their organization itself shows this spirit to a greater extent, for the participants sacri- fice their homeroom periods for practice time. Breaking away from the heavier pieces the other musical groups play, the Stage Band again this year kept its position of being most popular. This year saw them per- forming at the Talent Show, numerous as- semblies and evening music programs, and as the band for LIT Abner, much to the de- light of the student body as a whole. Much of the unseen and unappreciated talent for the Talent Show. Li’l Abner, and various assemblies was provided by Stage Band pianist, Kenny Atwell. FRONT ROW: Rufus Bailey. Mary Hill, Dick Maxwell.

The Orchestra Explores Musical Experiences From Symphonies to Swing The Westport orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Duane Miller, familiarizes Westport students with what may be termed “better music.” Aside from playing in school assemblies, the orchestra took part in the city-wide music festival. The students in the orchestra become acquainted with various types of music and enjoy being with a group of students who have a common interest. Instrumental music talents may be developed in the or- chestra, which provides a background for continued growth in musical skills. Hours of practice provide the skill necessary for par- ticipation in Westport's orchestra 82 Vocal Music Creates Strains of Harmony The Westport Choir and Girls’ Glee Club, under the direction of Mr. H. Spring1, pro- vided the opportunity for students to excel in developing vocal abilities. These talents are expressed in the classroom, and through engaging in various planned programs. This year the choir took part in the West- port Day Celebration, the Talent Show, various assemblies, and comprised the majority of the chorus of Li’l Abner. Types of music range from spirituals to swing. The vocal music department at Westport is invaluable in providing train- ing for those with vocal ability who wish to gain a deeper appreciation of singing. Nona Cutbirth, Phyliss Page.

Those who took part in the parades were the West- port Band, cheerleaders, and letter-sweater girls. This year Westport had, as in past years, a float in the American Royal Parade The float consisted of a huge Spirit Jug, symbolic of Westport, around which were megaphones. The B-Team Cheerleaders rode on the float while the Varsity Cheer- leaders led the Westport section. ABOVE: As the band assembles.

Westport’s 74th annual homecoming1 was honored with representatives from the class of 1915 through the class of 1967. As in past years, many activities were planned by the school as a whole and by individual clubs. All alumni signed the Senior Record as they entered the building, and those who had been members of literary societies also signed a register of the club to which they belonged. In the afternoon, the homecoming as- sembly was held, during which took place the traditional roll call of classes presented by the Student Council president, and the presentation of Christmas music by the choir under the direction of Mr. Spring, and the orchestra, directed by Mr. Miller. The assem- bly was followed by small alumni parties given by school clubs. That evening Home- coming Tiger Den was held, where the festivities were topped off by the crowning of the 1967 Homecoming Queen. 88 ABOVE: For many of the Class of '66 Homecoming: 67 was their first chance to see their senior class grift, the Westport Seal LEFT: In the front hall, in addition to an alumni register, each of the lits had a representative book for returning: members to sigrn.

The show featured a variety of acts including solos, ensembles, and skits performed by various organizations in Westport. The tension and excitement culminated when the curtain rose and ordinary students were seemingly transformed into talented individuals. This year the band opened the show and the choir presented the finale which once again terminated the yearly presentation of the all-school melting pot of entertainment. Musical numbers played a very important part in this year's Wesger Revue. Outstanding of the musical groups were the two groups pictured here and Assemblies Exhibit Talent Music plays an important part in many of the assem- blies each year. In addition to the orchestra and band assemblies, the music department provides enter- tainment for many of the other assemblies Variety and vitality adequately char- acterize the assemblies that have been presented for Westporters this year. The wide span between a modern combo and the Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra is an apt example of the diversity of interests to which our assemblies have catered. Westport students have been honored in their assemblies —from the ceremonious Honor Assemblies to the enthusiastic Football Assembly —and they have been intrigued — for example, the teasers for the Talent Show and Li'l Abner-but they have always been entertained and fulfilled by their assemblies.

An immeasurable amount of work and preparation evolved into two hours of delightful entertainment. The cast, under the expert direction of Mr. Richard Pond, brought new appreciation of drama to Westport. Leading roles of L’il Abner and Daisy Mae were taken by Ron Lawlor and Margaret Lyons. Other major parts were played by Leslie Pollock, Bob Simmons, Steve Allee, David Owings, Dan Cox, Earl Roush, Rosie Rousseau, Mike Henderson, and Susan Humphries. The hard-working chorus, composed of West- port vocalists, added greatly to the over-all excellence of the production. ABOVE: Under the overall direction of Carl R.

The theme for the Intersociety was “The Emerald Isle,” in keeping with the cele- bration of St. Patrick’s Day. To enhance the theme, appropriate table decorations were designed and a large mural covered one wall. The glitter of the evening culminated in the coronation of the literary societies’ Beauty Queens and Beau Brummels. As each couple was introduced, they glided down the floor to the strains of “A Pretty Girl Is Like a Melody.” After the coronation, the Beauty Queens and Beau Brummels led off a dance, later followed by the other couples. At the end of the evening, this dance seemed, to those attending, almost as enjoy- able as a St. Patrick’s Day evening on the Emerald Isle itself.
