V. W. THOMAS Principal Principal During his nineteen years of service, eight of which he si ent teaching in the Science Department and eleven as principal of Westville High, Mr. Thomas has gained through his friendly spirit and pleasing personality, the friendship, respect and admiration of all students, the faculty and citizens of Westville and surrounding communities. Any student who has gone through four years of high school, and hasn't appreciated his cooperation and ability, certainly has missed something. Ilis willingness to copoerate with the different clubs and organizations of the school, has occassionally kept him busy to the wee hours of the night. ( ur school, through the help and cooperation of Mr. Thomas, has progressed greatly in the last eleven years. Mr. Thomas has his A.If. degree from the University of Indiana, and his M.A. degree from the University of Illinois. ROSE SHAW Office Girl Ever since 1928 W.T.H.S. has had an office girl. There are many details around a modern school office that need to be taken care of. Among these details are transcript of credits to colleges, recommendations for boys entering military services, recommendations and reports of students securing jobs in war and civilian jobs, as well as keeping records, sending out school bulletins, keeping daily records of attendance and it seems endless records of details. Our office details are efficiently handled by Rose Shaw, graduate of 1941. Rose has held the position of office girl for two years.

Niemcnski, Bial, Swisher, Tomlinson. Parmentier, Schabowski, Bitto, Sneyd, Stark. Student Council Self government is the basis of all democracy. In school we are taught such rules and by means of the Student Council we are allowed to practice them. At the class elections each year the outstanding students are delegated to the position of student council members by their classmates. Two Freshmen, two Sophomores, two Juniors and three Seniors make up this group. The members of this society, with the help of Mr. Thomas, formulate and exercise ideas which are of benefit to the school. The Student Council expresses the thoughts and ideas of the students on school problems. Edwin Niemenski is the presiding officer at the monthly meetings which are carried on in regular parliamentary procedure. The Student Council selects six percent of the Owls and two members of the A.I5.C. Board. They also aid in promotion of social activities such as matinee dances.
