ChampiotiA, Early in the autumn of the year 1935 A.D., sixty-five little shavers marched down the dark corridors of Westwood High School. Although the leaves fell fast and early that year, the group didn’t take long to establish themselves with Jesse Herrera pointing out the course, followed by Charles Pierce in 1936. In the spring of the next year, Boh Creighton led the way and the gallant class of “41” climbed another step in the ladder of achievement with the “Yule Swing”. Harry Knecht then took over the leadership and for the two ensuing years pre- pared and organized his classmates for their final meet. Those two vears saw history made: a school hand hook, the winning of the singing trophy. Junior January Jamboree and the formal prom. In the school year of “40-41” John Anderson was to leave them the memories of his outstanding leadership. The Red, White and Blue Ball, the Junior-Senior picnic, and the grand and glorious proin-—all followed in rapid succession. On the evening of June 12, 1941, forty-eight students dressed in caps and gowns received their diplomas—the “champions” of that six-year course of sun and snow, of easy traveling and hazardous slopes. 13
