S ecutcoe The Executive Committee consists of all student body officers nad a rep- resentative from each class and organization. Its duties are to make laws, grant charters to organizations, approve all wards, and supervise all extra- curricular activities and palyment of bills. Until last year when Executive Committee became a governing body it was an administrative council. Student (Z utnaC Student control at Westwood originated 23 years ago. The original court was made up of juniors and seniors only, but now each class elects repre- sentatives. Student curt has a judge elected every quarter. The duty of the court is to prosecute offenders. The court's responsibility is to maintain order in the corridors and at functions where the school is directly responsible.

As eighth graders, we grew older and bolder. Finally we became those var- mints known as freshmen. We got our treasury started by having a cake and candy sale and a noon dance. As sophomores, we sponsored the annual Christmas dance. Our first class party that year was an informal gathering in the gym. In the spring the tradi- tional swimming party was held. By the time we were juniors, we thought we were really up in the world. For the first time in the history of Westwood High School the junior class put on a play. It was called Rest Assured and was a huge success. The Stardust dance, a pickle sale, pep book sales, and noon candy sales were other money-making activities. That year we took first place in both the song and yell contest. In the spring we teamed up with the seniors in financing and sponsoring the Junior- Senior Picnic and the Junior-Senior Prom. As seniors we finally thought we had reached the last mile. To start off the year, we won the song and yell contest and became the first class to win both contests two years in succession. We sponsored a week-long Twirp Season for the school with a dance at the end of the week. This was the school's first event of this kind. To add more to our funds we decorated and hat-checked for the Firemen's Ball. To end the school year with a bang, we had the Senior Banquet, Senior Skip Day, Junior-Senior Picnic and Prom, Baccalaureate, and finally the marching down the aisle for graduation. Now we the class of '54 noted for our unusualify, originality, and our spectacular non-school-sponsored parties, say good-by to Westwood High School and all its memories.
