We will see again a picture, Tho a tear may dim our eye, Of the years when we were happy, In the dear old Westville High. Through each hour we’ll fondly wander, Every class-mate we’ll recall, Hear again their merry voices, In the large assembly hall. See again our glorious banners, Won on football field and track, And rejoice that we were loyal, To the “Orange and the Black.” We will thank once more our teachers, And recall that they were true. Thank them for their kindness, To the Class of ’22. Through all the years of High School On the incidents we’ll dwell; And at last with sadness linger O’er the time we said “Farewell!” Elizabeth McDonald, Class of ‘22. iiiHiRninHifniiiiiHiHiHiHuiiiiiiiiHniiHiiiuiimiiiiiiiu)uuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiNiM 21

19 JANUS 22 CLASS HISTORY It was only four short years ago when we, the Senior Class of 1922, entered the Westville High School. We had already been in the building while in the eighth grade so that we did not have to go thru the customary agony experienced by other freshmen in getting rid of greenness. True to form we led the average toilsome life of a freshman. The next year we began to climb the Ladder to Success. We made a record for ourselves of which anyone should be proud being prominent in athletics and social events. We had five men on the first team in football and three in basketball. After much hard fighting, the Sophomores nosed out the Seniors for first place in the Interclass Basketball Tournament. A Beautiful pennant was awarded the class for this championship, and it was hung up in the assembly as a fitting remembrance of the battle. During the year we gave the “Follies of ‘22” which was a decided success. Many of us took part in the play “Sylvia”. The greatest event of the year was the elaborate banquet given by the Sophomore Class in honor of the champion basket ball team. Our third year, we mounted several rungs up the Ladder. We were well represented in all athletics. In track, Cecil Simpson and Fred Dudley Starred. Cecil broke the Paris, 111., record in the discus throw and Fred won first place in the high jump at Charleston, this being the first time a first place was ever won by a Westville man there. They were also the high point getters ’ in other meets. e gave a party during the year and in May the magnificent Junior-Senior IIop was held in the auditorium of the Westville Township High School. Now we are finishing our fourth year, the last lap of our journey thru high school. We do not mean to stop here but to climb higher on the ladder to success. This has been our banner year. We had seven men on the football team all of whom made a creditable showing. There were five men on the basketball squad and track lacked no support of the Senior class. The annual this year is one of which the school and the town of Westville should be proud. All the members have worked hard on this book and it will be seen that the work has not been in vain. The permanent name “Janus” was chosen by a vote of the entire school. We bid Westville adieu with many regrets and sorrows but with staunch hearts. We are entering the bigger and better life made possible for us by the inspiration received during our past four years of experience. May our High School have reason proudly to claim us as members of its alumni. Joe Chromis ‘22. 22 iiiiiiiiiiitMiiini
