The many supportive activities undoubtedly helped our football team pull off the smashing 28-O victory over our cross town rival, Mesa High School. Tease your hair was the first spirit rousing day held, followed by cover your hair day, in which a variety of hats were worn. The next day, spirit was shown by wearing all kinds of boots and ties. To represent Westwoods colors, students were to dress in orange and blue on Friday. Quite a few people contributed by getting involved in these activities. Shakers and mega- phones were sold all week to supporting fans. The senior lawn project proved to be interesting, for they tied a simulated bunny to a target, and whose head was just a 'hair' off the bull's-eye. Butch the bunnies was the junior lawn project motto as they made and placed a rabbit onto a guillotine. This bunny was kidnapped on the morning of the game by a cer- tain drum major from a certain school, but was re- turned later in the day. A pep rally was held during lunch on Friday, in which the student council performed funeral services for the jackrabbits. This was accompanied by the cheer lead- ers cheering and the band playing.

After elec- tions, Jim and Jon succeeded as the new president and publicity chairman. 24 Sophomore Elections Officers Selectedg Sophies Begin Job Every year there are many sophomore students who want to participate in the exciting student council at Westwood. Elections were held as the students dressed up and put on acts showing their class how they planned to help out in school activities. Speeches ranged from imitating, as Jim Gilliland did, succeeding in winning the presidency, to defining the meaning of a speech, as did Trudy Klepinger. A tie between Trudy and Stacey Davis, who imitated the wild and crazy Steve Martin, was declared after elec- tions. The final winner after decisive voting was Trudy as the new vice president. The new secretary was Laurie Kleck and the offices of publicity were taken by Trulee Button and John Lines. As the newly elected officers gathered at the student council meeting, they were proud to lead the class who chose them. The officers made the year very successful due to their enthusiasm and determination to do the best job they could in leading a newly established but already promis- ing class to three years of spirit.
