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

A LAST FAREWELL Thy tall majestic walls Inspire us all The higher better things Seem to call.
Like a faint mirage in early morn We see thee rise Sturdy, staunch, comforting 'Neath blue skies.
Here there were friendly helping hearts Our lives to guide When ever we had need—they were Always at our side.
Our lives are broadened—bettered By the days spent here. The countless hours of knowledge gained We'll hold most dear.
And now departing—we look back, We bid farewell What we shall do in years to come Only time can tell. STADIUM

WEST HIGH STADIUM
On October 15, 1937, a long awaited occasion took place when the new sixty thousand dollar stadium was dedicated with an impressive ceremony. The stadium, which has long been the hope and dream of many, was at last a reality. Many imoortant persons were present including the guest of honor, Otto H. Magly. Dwight Fisher, Judge Cecil Randall, Ray Hauntz, Edward Kromer and Jack H. LeVeck also had important parts in the dedication ceremonies. The athletic unit was named Magly Field.
It is the largest school stadium in the city with a total length of 306 feet and a seating capacity of 3,300. It is 42 feet 6 inches wide and 20 feet high. It is of reinforced concrete with seats of California Redwood.
West High is indeed proud of her stadium and extremely grateful to those who worked so hard to make it possible. k 0^ •1 I 1

The setting of the play was the Footlights Club in New York City, and told of ambitious young actresses who undergo many hardships to achieve success. Terry Randall, the daughter of a small town doctor, turned down Hollywood offers and worked in a department store to continue her stage career. In spite of all trouble she stayed in New York and finally got her chance. The play was presented to capacity houses and was certainly one of the finest ever presented here. Those who appeared in the cast of "Stage Door" are: Annamaye Hull, Evelyn Rhoades, Helen Henderson, Katherine Ogden, Peggy Huff, Doris Potts, Claire Ett, Jeannett Tobin, Betty Burns, Jerry Stone, Lenore Nelson, Jayne Robinson, Virginia Provens, Florence Luton, Mary Matheny, Dolores Yank, Suzanne Cleveland, Betty Thornton, Virginia Stout, Carmen Lambert, Margaret Roling, Tom Hutt, Charles Butte, Shirley Minehart, Richard Johnston, Melvin Raab, Walter Bonnell, Howard Dressel, Douglas Myers, Bill Evans, Dick Silger. Roger Myers, and Roland Grenell. Page Rfry-eight 'ROSALIE RUNS RIOT On December I Oth the music department and dramatic classes presented "Rosalie Runs Riot," a gay musical comedy with a little bit of everything. The leading parts were taken by Jeannet Tobin and Don Bachman. The music, under the direction of Mr. H. E. Hutchinson, was especially fine. The novelty of the evening was the "Big Apple," which was a part of the play. All kind of music from "swing" to "opera" was heard. Few realized the talent West students had along musical and dramatic lines until "Rosalie" was presented. While the story was not so powerful as Shakespeare it was more interesting than the average musical comedy. "Rosalie," under the direction of Mr. Hutchinson and Mr. Roy Bowen, was the latter's first play to be staged at West. The school is lucky to have such able men as instructors. Page Fifty-n WEST HI BAND "38 This year's band was the finest we have had in West High. During the football season they stepped forth with many dazzling formations of letters and figures, showing what expert drilling can do. Probably the most enjoyed formation was the floating H-E-L-L-O. Playing an outstanding part in the stadium dedication, and adding to our enjoyment during athletic contests, the band has helped cheer us on to victory. In the District contest of the O. M. E. A. at Granville our band played several selections and provided five soloists, all of whom were highly praised by the judges. They had two broadcasts over WOSU. The first featured ensembles and solos and in the second the full band presented Freedman's "Seavorie Rhapsody" and the "Silver Cord" overture by O'Neille. In the P.-T. A. May Festival, the West High Band had 33 players, and Mr. H. E. Hutchinson was one of the two co-directors. VOCAL Mr. H. E. Hutchinson, as well as West High, is very proud of the vocal depart ment. It is divided into three groups. The experienced section of the chorus meets the 4th period. This group is almost equally divided between boys and girls. They are older students and have had previous experience under Mr. H. E. Hutchinson. The I Oth and I I th grade sections meet the 8th and 9th periods respectively. When the occasion calls for it, Mr. Hutchinson combines the three groups, making a very nice chorus. DANCE BAND Up into the class of Benny Goodman and Guy Lombardo soars the West High band. This year we had a dance band that could really "swing it." Keeping up to date on the popular tunes, the band played for most of the school functions and had many engagements outside of the school. Real rhythmical music floated on the breeze as the sax, trumpet, or trombone sections sang out in clear sweet tones. Those who took part in this band, under Mr. H. E. Hutchinson's direction, were: Gerald Johnston, Tom Hutt, Dorothy Brown, Leslie Westerman, Lawrence Campbell, Alban Gulcher, Glen Haniman, Josephine Reed, Lovie Mae Cranston, Lois Brown, Norma Leffler, Marvin Clark, Jack KePdel, and Paul Speer. Page Sixty-c STUDENT COUNCIL President Frank Richey Vice President Mary Matheny Secretary Dolores Yank Treasurer Harry Riggs The purpose of the Student Council is to promote school welfare and to represent each class in school affairs. The main project of the Council was the improvement of the landscape. Seven trees were planted in front of the school and two were replaced. Shrubbery was trimmed and sprayed—Ivy was planted along the wall between the two front doors. Money was made for this fund by the pop-corn sales held every month and the "Social Hour" which was staged by the Council in order to bring students in closer contact with each other. The music was furnished by "The Swing Band" of West High under the supervision of Mr. H. E. Hutchinson. Miss Blanche Kern and Mr. G. Neeb are the club advisers. Page Sixty-two "L" SOCIETY President Charles Pletcher Vice President Richard Johnston Secretary Dorothy Davidson Treasurer Kathryn Nettleship The purpose of the "L" is to emphasize the literary and cultural side of school life. At Christmas time a very fine play was presented, and later in the year the club again resorted to dramatics when it gave its own version of MacBeth. Mr. Roy Bowen gave a talk on "Dramatics" and his recent visit to New York; while Miss Mary Smith favored the club with a talk centering around the book "Ferdinand." Initia tion was held for new members in the spring. The year was climaxed by the annual picnic in the spring. This year's "L" Society was very fortunate to have Miss Katherine Gress as adviser. Words cannot express the appreciation of the members for her part in upholding the high standards the club has set forth. Page Sixty-thre LATIN CLUB President Don Bachman Vice President Wilford Neptune Secretary Suzanne Cleveland Treasurer Jean Tarleton The Latin Club was very large this year—146 members. The programs usually consisted of plays, pageants and talks. Latin songs were always included. Miss Margaret Campbell gave a talk on her recent trip to Europe, which was very interesting. The annual event of the Latin Club was its Roman Banquet. The observance of Roman customs, food and decorations all tended to make this affair enjoyable to all. Miss Mae Jones is the faculty adviser. Many thanks go to Miss Campbell who took the club over during Miss Mae Jones' illness so that it wouldn't be necessary to banish the club entirely. LIBRARY COUNCILORS President Eileen Hess Vice President Robert Harper Secretary Emogene Forsythe Corresponding Secretary Dolores Yank A selected group of pupils chosen for both scholarship and good character form the Library Councilors, which organization has for its aim service to pupils and teachers. These councilors give up study periods to assist in the library. The councilors have special duties assigned to them, such as assisting in the art and bulletin work, repairing books, secretarial work, clipping, and preserving pamphlets, desk duties, aiding in compiling bibliographies and shelving books. The organization meets the fourth Tuesday of each month at which programs are given. One of the most interesting programs of the year was the one at which Dr. H. H. Reighley spoke on the subject of being a good student. The library was one of the chief places of interest at the open house held for P.-T. A. Miss Mary Smith is faculty adviser to the group. Page SUty-fivf 1 HI-Y President Robert Self Vice President Bill Hottinger Secretary Warren Keefer Treasurer Herschel Wilson During the past year the Hi-Y has accomplished much in a progressive way. The initiation of new members was held before the school assembly, in a very impressive manner, showing what the Hi-Y stands for. At Thanksgiving the help of the Hi-Y boys was invaluable in collecting food and clothing, and distributing them to the needy. Many social events took place during the past year, the foremost of which were: the skating party in November, the dance in March, and the frolic in April. The club has a membership of 64, and is fortunate to have Mr. Arthur Buchanan as adviser. Under his leadership the boys have had basketball and baseball teams which have enjoyed a successful season. Page Sixty-six GIRL RESERVES President Helen Henderson Vice President Dorothy McCreary Secretary Jean Stroup Treasurer Jane Stroup There are 185 members in the Girl Reserves. Their faculty advisers are Miss Eva Wright and Miss Maude Davis. The cabinet members are: Helen Henderson, Dorothy McCreary, Jean Stroup, Jane Stroup, Mary Matheny, Eileen Hess, Virginia Bonn, Mildred Jordan, Marianna Jerger, and Suzanne Cleveland. The programs of the meetings this year have centered around the theme of developing a good personality. Service projects, which have been carried out were: the filling and distributing of thirty-seven baskets, (in cooperation with the Hi Y Club) to the needy of the West Side at Thanksgiving time; the donation of toys at Christmas time; a Christmas play presented at the school assembly; and providing entertainment twice a week for children who were confined to the hospitals for a long period of time. Page Sixty-seven CHEER LEADERS Something different in cheerleading was tried at West this year, a group of ten students being used. Edgar House, acting as adviser, selected five boys and five girls; it was the first time in the history of the school that girls were permitted to try out. At football games the entire group led cheers, while the basketball games were worked by various combinations of three each. The cheerleaders were Barbara Findeis, Jean Tarleton, Annabelle Slyh, Erma Calland, Shirley Minehart, John Frak, Joe Galloway, Bob Richey, Albert Gunning, and Jack Hatton. , f/ ir tf^i v V NATIONAL GUARD President Byron Farwell Secretary William Strickland Sergeant-atArms Paul Pharis The Ohio Guardsmen club was organized March 24 under the supervision of Mr. E. C. Reed. There are twenty-two members in this club who meet the second Thursday of the month. The organization, which is military in nature, has for its purpose cooperation with one another and with the down town armory authorities. The first meeting of this group was a business one. Assignments on various subjects were given out to be discussed for future meetings. Page Sixty-nine LANGUAGE CLUBS SPANISH CLUB President Carter Sanders Vice President Richard Gilger Secretary Mary L. Johnson Treasurer Kathryn Ogden The chief topic of discussion in the Spanish Club throughout the year was con cerned with the war situation in Spain. This has been the banner year in membership and interest. One of the most enjoyable events of the year was the Christmas party at which time gifts were exchanged and speeches were given to fit the occasion. The other event is the picnic held at the shelter house in the spring. Since 1925, Eula Harris has been the capable adviser to the club. GERMAN CLUB President Ferdinand Maier Vice President Betty Knisely Secretary Doris Schubert Treasurer Harry Anthony The purpose of the German Club is to acquire a better knowledge of the German people and their culture. For this reason the club has been very fortunate in having a boy born in Germany to preside as president, viz. Fred Maier. It is the custom of the club to honor the Senior members graduating by pre senting them with pins in the shape of a pretzel. The main social event of the year was a large Christmas party. Mrs. Norma McCoy founded this club, which is the first of its kind in the city of Columbus. FRENCH CLUB President Marianna Jerger Vice President Betty Finney Secretary Frances Newlon Treasurer Retha Baird The French atmosphere is created at the meetings for the purpose of promoting an interest in the French language, people, customs, and history. The programs are planned so as to include one of the above topics. There is a program committee who has charge of the meetings under the guidance of Miss Matilda Hunglemann. Leona Russell is the chairman and Jane Pope and June Nelson are her assistants. Page Seventy-one PHOTOPLAY CLUB President Melvin Raab Vice President Katherine Dawson Secretary Marianna Jerger Treasurer Doris Potts The Photoplay Club of West High School has a membership of fifty-five boys and girls, meeting every third Wednesday of the month. Its purpose is to promote an interest in good pictures, to develop an appreciation for the best in this art, to study the technical side of moving picture production and to consider the trades and vocations connected with it as an industry. It also aims to teach discrimination in choosing the current films. The programs deal with these topics, and occasionally outside speakers address the club. The club belongs to the national organization of the Young Reviewers and Four Star clubs of America, and receives "The Four Star Final", its official publication. It also subscribes for the library, "Motion Pictures and the Family" and the pamphlet, "Selected Motion Pictures" giving the leading picture for the month. The club presented to the school "The Plough That Broke the Plains," and helped with the showing of class films. An important feature of the year was the dance after the East game, sponsored by the club. On April 6 the members visited the Ohio Censor Board as the guests of the State Censorship Director. The faculty adviser to the club is Miss Evaline Harrington. Page Seventy-two ART CLUB President Wayne Kauffman Vice President Margaret Piatt Secretary Wanda Martin Treasurer Frances Mae Newlon The club has had a very active year even though it was hindered by not getting started until late, due to the serious illness of Mr vV. D. Campbell, the adviser. There was a field trip to the Von Gerichten Art Glass Company in September. A very successful Christmas Party was held, which included: carols, games, dancing, and refreshments. A decorated Chri'tmas tree with thirty-four gifts was presented to the Urban League for colored children. The spring months included noted speakers on art, a trip to the Gallery of Fine Arts, the election of new officers in May, and the annual spring picnic in June. There are 65 members in all.

A school dance was also sponsored by the club in the gym. Some of the main activities this year were: the sponsoring of a motion picture show, a steak roast at O'Shaughnessey Dam, a larewell party for the seniors, and the last event was the spring initiation at which twenty new members were received into the club. Every member was given a Triangle Club emblem for his club activities this year. A bronze plaque was purchased and given to the school for the purpose of recognizing the outstanding students in drafting each year hereafter. Bob Tong, Warren Keefer, Don Fox, James Bishop, and LeRoy Shady were responsible for a large part of the Ohio State Fair trophies awarded to the school. Mr. C. S. Kennedy is the faculty adviser for the club. Page Seventy-fot hr^Ui o c db ^HAJL^U SCIENCE CLUB President Melville Swanson Vice President Howard Link Secretary Betty Burns Treasurer Doris Schubert The purpose of the Science Club is to further the interest of students in scientific work. Very interesting talks were given during the year by the faculty adviser and members of the club. At the annual Christmas party one of the first members of the club, Mr. Paul Forgrave, was present. Mr. Forgrave gave an interesting talk on the early development of the club and of his work since he was a member. The faculty adviser to the club is Mr. E. C. Reed. HOME ECONOMICS CLUB President Lillian Boyer Vice President Josephine Reed Secretary Betty Hall Treasurer Ruth Gurley The purpose of this club is to render service to their friends, department, home, and community, to give its members higher ideas of culture and standards of living, to make their homes more lovely and attractive in which to live, and to stimulate interest in hobbies and use of spare time. The club met every fourth Tuesday of the month at 3:30 in the Apartment Housekeeping Room. Programs included: visits to bakeries and ice cream plant, educational films, style reviews, lectures by members of the Home Economics Department of Ohio State University and representatives from the Columbus Better Business Bureau. Miss Emma Uncapher is the faculty adviser. CHEMISTRY CLUB President George Luckey Vice President Charles Pletcher Secretary Frances Rather Treasurer Richard Smith The purpose of the Chemistry Club is to develop interesting and instructive aspects of chemistry which cannot be covered in the class room. Visits to industrial plants, museums, applications of chemistry to art, lithographic and paint factories, are all a part of the work carried on by this club. During the year, trips were taken to the Agricultural Chemistry department and to the museum of Ohio State University. A visit was also made to the Lithograph Company to study the applications of chemistry to lithographing. Dr. C. B. Marquand is the faculty adviser of the club. DEBATE CLUB President Charles White Vice President Melvin Raab Secretary-Treasurer Doris Minehart JoOTJ^ ~yyi^uJ<-*/i-& The Athenian Debate Club was formed to further the interest in debating and public speaking in the school. Exceptionally fine programs were enjoyed by the membership this year. A mock trial was held at one of the last meetings, preceded by discussions on the European question of today. In the fall, a picture show was presented which proved very profitable. The annual outing was held in the latter part of May. The year's debate squad, under the guidance of Mr. Edwin Kaylor, had limited success, debating on the subject of Unicameralism, winning two, and losing two de cisions. Washington C. H. negative team defeated our affirmative team; our negative team defeated Circleville's affirmative; our affirmative defeated Delaware; and our negative lost to North's affirmative. This year's debaters were: Carter Sanders, Don Bachman, Vernadelle Shepherd, and Emogene Forsythe, negative; Bernice Nieder, Leona Russell, Dorothy McCreary and Melvin Raab, affirmative. enty-eight GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION President Mary Matheny Vice President Charlene Wright Secretary June Taylor Treasurer Suzanne Cleveland This has been the most successful year since the G. A. A. has started, due to the fine sportsmanship and cooperation of the girls. Various entertainments have been furnished throughout the year in the form of swimming parties, hikes, skating parties, initiation of new members and pot luck dinners. The G. A. A. girls also gave a tea for the prospective members. A "badminton set" was bought, which only members are to use. G. A. A. pins are awarded to the girls who earn 150 points (Mary Matheny, Frances Yors, Virginia Bonn, and Dorothy Kimmel). Pin guards are awarded for 225 points (Charlene Wright, Joy Sayre, Suzanne Cleveland, June Taylor). Money has been made in many different ways for this fund. Volley ball, kickball, baseball, and basketball are the main sports of the group. After each season of the various sports a tournament has been held.

JBI^HBBIBH Efi l»*pw^ , ^ "W" ASSOCIATION President Bill Hottinger Vice President Bob Ucker Secretary Frank Richey Treasurer Howard Harrison Small in number, but action speaks louder than size in this case. The twenty-one members have kept more than busy in the past year. The social program started off with a football dance after the Homecoming game at which 400 attended. The annual basketball dance, after the South game, came later. The Spring Dinner Dance was a huge success and was enjoyed by all present. Not to be outdone, the boys paid fifty dollars, which they pledged for the stadium; they plan to give another fifty dollars for equipment in the medical room when the stadium is completed. Coach Harold Wise is the adviser and the boys have cooperated splendidly with him in everything that was undertaken. f Mil II4\ BHUWAR- 38 ATHLETIC AWARD The athletic award presented each year to the outstanding athlete, was won by Frank Richey. Frank's West High career has been a long and colorful one. In football he played at halfback, showing fine foot work and headwork in making many fine runs, the outstanding being a 102 yard touchdown run against Newark last fall. He was elected captain of the "All High" team in 1936 and 1937, and was placed on the second "All Ohio" team in 1937. A speedy forward on the basketball team, Frank played with the champion ship reserves in 1936 and was forward on the city championship team of 1937. He again was at his position in 1938, and was honored with an "All High" rating on the second team in 1937 and 1938. Roaming the outfield in 1936 base ball, he led the city high loop in hitting. Again in 1937, as an outfielder and a pitcher, he was hitting among the best with a .476 average. This year he has played a bang-up game at first base and has pitched beautiful ball. Truly we are proud to have one so illustrious in our midst. AGONIS AWARD The name of Frank Richey will adorn the Agonis plaque, in the trophy case, along with other great West athletes of the past. The Agonis award is presented each year, by the local Agonis Club, to the senior having the best record in athletic and scholarship. He must have at least a B average in his studies and earned five letters in major sports. We are sure no one deserved this honor more as a climax to his high school career than he. Frank has been outstanding in the three major sports, football, basketball, and baseball for the past three years. We anticipate that Frank will make his "mark" in collegiate activities-—in both scholastic and athletic circles. Good luck, Frank. FRANK RICHEY COACHES OF WEST GEORGE COLLINS HAROLD E. WISE Page Eighty-three _ FOOTBALL REVIEW "HAIL THE CHAMPS!" That's the phrase for the "37" team which went through the season untied and undefeated. Much credit for this fine record goes to Coach Harold Wise and assistants, Coaches George Collins and George Williams. Bill Hottinger and Howard Harrison at the ends, Jack Bellar and Howard Gentry at tackle, Richard Kimbrall, Leonard Matthews and Jack Bowman at guards, Bob Carpenter at center and Captain Oakley Richardson, Frank Richey, Paul Schlosser, Bob Ucker, Ed Hughes, and LeRoy Oakley in the backfield, were awarded letters as result of proficent playing. The Buckaroos mercilessly mowed down all opposition by the following scores: Springfield, 13-0; Aquinas, 6-0; Grandview, 19-0; incidentally, this was the first defeat Grandview had suffered since the opening game in 1935. At the homecoming game Newark lost 20-0—this game being featured by Frank Richey's 102-yard run. In the Dedication game East fell by the way 20-6; then North was swamped 25-0; Chillicothe was set back 34-6; and South was defeated 20-6 before the largest crowd ever to witness a high school game in Columbus. To cinch the crown, Central was downed 14-0 to end the most successful season in West High history—undefeated and untied. Page Eighty-four ALL OHIO FOOTBALL For the first time in the history of high school football there was an all Ohio team picked to go to St. Petersburg, Florida, with all expenses paid by the Scripps- Howard papers and the Chamber of Commerce. From central Ohio there were four players picked; West High placed three on this list, namely: Richardson, Kimbrel, and Bellar. These boys played spectacular football throughout the season for West and they were fully worthy of the honor bestowed upon them. The Ohio boys were sent south to do battle with the Florida All-Stars on December 23; they came home on the long end of a 19-0 score, and with some very interesting tales. Page Eighty-frve BASKETBALL Our Buckaroos were not quite so successful this year as far as cage activities were concerned, inasmuch as they won but three league games. While this record isn't so impressive on the books, the team was one of the scrappiest ever to wear West suits. The games they dropped were even almost all the way through and the boys lost by narrow margins in most cases. Those who saw regular service were: Captain Ed Hughes, Frank Richey, Ray Stinson, Bob Ucker, Ed Ogden, Dave James, Ned Bell, Howard Gentry, and Paul Schlosser. These boys defeated North 31-29, East 31-23, and Central 40-32 in one of the biggest upsets of the season. They were on the short end of the count with East, in the opening game, 41-36; our Bucs were turned back by Central 52-37, and South 49-37; then by Aquinas 30-24. In the second round, games were dropped to North 34-22; South 41-32, and Aquinas. In the district tournament at Delaware our boys did quite well, defeating Grand- view 27-13 in the opener, then trouncing Central 44-36, this game being featured by Ed Hughes' scoring spree in which he scored 23 points for a new tourney record. Marion Harding proved a little too stubborn and we fell behind 37-24, and then lost the consolation game to Mt. Vernon 38-31. Despite our loss, West was the only central Ohio team to remain in the running. This year's reserves, in providing sor le nice scrappy games, were able to emerge •ictorious in only one of ten tilts. Page Eighty-seven 9- ' JA1B . . /.i: fri ii *r,,A v TSSSI BASEBALL Due to a number of sore arms suffered from vaccinations as a result of a smallpox scare, the Buckaroo nine got off to a late start in swinging the "old hickory." The first practice was held at Westgate as the new diamond was not yet com pleted. However, the Cowboys opened their season on the local diamond, losing to Ostrander, 7-1. But the following day they met and defeated Etna, 10-0. In the initial league tilt the Buckaroos played host to North and lost a hard fought battle, 7-3. Then they trekked to East and upset the Tigers, 13-3. The Cowboys dropped another league fray to South, 6-1. Although the boys got off to a bad start, we all wish them a bright finish. THE WEST TRACK TEAM West High had a new cinder track team plus new equipment and plenty of enthusiasm. West did not have a track team for several years so the varsity squad had to be chosen at an interclass meet. The track team's training was under the direction of George Collins. It is a sport which requires hard training. It helps develop a healthy body and is very advantageous to those who participate. West is glad to have a track team again. Page E A ' WRESTLING The West High Wrestling Team under the capable guidance of Coach George Collins had a good season. They won six of their eight matches losing to South and East. West had five grapplers to reach the finals in the city meet, which was held March 9 and 10, at Ohio State University. The boys who reached the finals were Hartley, Payne, Wedemeyer, Harrison, and Oakley. Of these boys, Harrison and Oakley won and were declared champions of their respective divisions. GOLF This year's golf squad consisting of Leonard Matthews, Earl Carper, Chester Hill, Bob Ucker, Bud Lively, Jim Sweeney, and Ferd Mair, under the supervision of Coach Harold Wise, opened the season at Twin Rivers course with a victory over South 81/2 to 3l/2. Then the Buckaroo club toters met and tied East, 6-6. Mathews was low medalist for the day however, with a 78. Page Eighty-n BASKETBALL One of the main projects in the girl's physical education classes this year has been to stress the importance of posture. Two leagues were formed, and volley ball, basketball, and kickball were played once a week after school, while elimination contests were held in baseball. From these players were chosen the class teams who played in the tournaments. The volley ball tourney was won by the seniors. There was a large attendance at the annual basketball tournament, when the seniors defeated both the juniors and the sophomores. This tournament was the most successful one on record.
