; . \ THE OCCIDENT WEST HIGH SCHOOL COLUMBUS, OHIO JUNE 1938 rCCEWCED p^jHE 1938 OCCIDENT assumes for mission the privilege |p! fjj of preserving ' /ithin its pages those records of the past year which we believe, in the day of retrospection to come, will provide a wealth of pleasant memories, undimmed by the shades of time. In past years Miss Katherine Burns, retired Journalism teacher, supervised the publication of the school annual. She was respon sible for encouraging and inspiring her students to noble deeds. This was reflected in school publications, so admirably produced under her leadership. It is our hope to emulate the truths and stand ards taught by Miss Burns in the presentation of this annual. Closely associated with Miss Burns, in the publication of the school annual, was Mr. George F. Neeb, social science instructor. To him we are greatly indebted for giving unstintingly of his time and numerous suggestions in the preparation of this work. More specifically, he supervised the senior photos. The staff likewise acknowledges the invaluable services afforded by our beloved vice-principal, Miss Blanche Kern. Marked as the school of the COWBOYS the senior class of West High School decided to carry out the theme of the traditional cowboy, so vital a symbol of the Hilltop school. DEDICATION IN appreciation of the fine help and guid ance given us, during his first year as principal of West Senior High School, we, the class of nineteen thirty-eight, gratefully dedicate this annual to Dr. H. H. Reighley. It was he who was largely instrumental in elevating the standards of our school on a par with the foremost schools of the country—for which we are sincerely thankful. May West High, under his administration, continue to grow. CONTENTS • SCHOOL • ORGANIZATIONS • ATHLETICS • FEATURES GEORGE ROUDEBUSH Superintendent Columbus Public Schools ADMINISTKATICN L. K.
