There are few schools of our size that have three faculty members with master’s degrees, the remainder with A.I». degrees excepting one. I radically every teacher attends a summer school each year in order to keep up with the latest trends in education, and last but not least, each instructor has the student at heart. They are willing to devote a lot of extra time for the betterment of the students. ANN COLUMBUS Miss Ann Columbus, who received her training at Normal College, is the office girl.

The Wearing of the down SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS: President—Lois Sole Vicc-President—Zicmend Lemeris Secretary—J E n n i E Ta h on Student Council■—Anne Petkas Charlotte Leverich Senior Class History Freshmen! What fearful thoughts the very word called to mind. Unknown and varied experiences were to be ours. We knew not what was ahead of us, but we were willing and eager to explore the future. We entered Westville High as explorers of a dark, unknown cavern. Sixty strong in the beginning, we lost a few of the less courageous at the start. The rest of us continued our adventure into the dark cave with groping hands and stumbling feet, but before the first year was over we had managed to write some of our names on the wall. In our second year we were less afraid of the cavern and it did not seem so dark. We spent less time in looking for stumbling stones, and more in improving the interior of the cave. Shining lights made their appearance along the way in the form of the honor roll list on the wall. Days were beginning to get tediously long, so a few went out for Dramatics to entertain us. And wonder of wonders! A few joined a select group of Owls that lived in the cave. While we had been exploring, others had followed us. They kept right behind us, and we had to keep going to stay ahead of them. Before us we saw a faint light. Was it an opening? We traveled faster. The light proved to be another group before us almost on the verge of a great discovery. Finally, they were successful!! 'Phis being our third year we decided we should Ik1 able to help the group celebrate their victory. We sold candy to those behind us; we invited the public in to see a play given by us; we did many things to earn some money. At the end of the year we had enough to give them a feast. A banquet was prepared and the group departed, leaving us as the foremost group. Our fourth year of exploring led us farther into the cave. A faint glimmer of light ahead of us kept us steadfast to the course. Finally, we reached it and— we had reached the end! We discovered an opening in the rear of the cave and intended to use it. Of course, we left other groups behind us trying to reach the goal we had captured but we hope we have succeeded in lighting their way a little. Pane Ten
