Homecoming Homecoming celebration brings new, old traditions ______ By Kiersten Pitcher Editor in Chief ______ It came and went in a blur of frenzied activity, but Homecoming Week left behind memories that will not soon fade. Weber High has recently experienced a week that may be more memorable than most due to the ¿UVW+RPHFRPLQJZLQLQVHYHQ\HDUVDQGWKHLQLWLDWLRQRIWKH¿UVW¿YH members into the Weber High Hall of Fame. These individuals include Blair Buswell, Rulon Jones, Jerry Moyes, Olene Smith Walker and Rich- ard “Dick” Connolly. “It [the Weber High Hall of Fame] is a way to recognize alumni who KDYHPDGHVRPHVLJQL¿FDQWFRQWULEXWLRQWRWKHLUFRPPXQLW\DIWHUJUDGXD- tion. It’s also for current students to see the possibilities that exist for We- ber High graduates,” says Weber’s principal, Mr. Wardle. Weber’s Hall of Fame display will be set up in the corridor close to the weight room and the big gym. Wardle says this location was chosen because “this area UHFHLYHVWKHPRVWWUDI¿FIURPWKHFRPPXQLW\´ Blair Buswell graduated from Weber High in 1975 and became a na- tionally recognized artist and sculptor.

Many LDS prophet sculptures were also created by Buswell and are located in the Conference Center. For his accomplishments Bus- well was named the Sports Artist of the Year. Buswell says his favorite memories of Weber High include “all my friends and teachers. I had a great time with all my buddies and certain teachers I really liked.” He also offers advice to the Warriors now attending Weber High, “Get as involved as you can. There are so many things out there, so much to get involved with. Do things that interest you to meet people you like. Don’t just stick to one group of friends; extend yourself outside that and do as many activities as possible.” Rulon Jones graduated with the class of 1976 as a multisport athlete. +HWKHQDWWHQGHG8WDK6WDWHZKHUHKHFRQWLQXHGWRH[FHOLQ)RRWEDOOHDUQ- Ty Decker, junior, samples some of the whipped cream that LQJ3DFL¿F&RDVW$WKOHWH$VVRFLDWLRQRIWKH\HDU+HLVDIRUPHU1)/ was smeared across his face. player and All-Star.

Another unforgettable Warrior is Richard Connolly, who taught at We- ber High from 1963-93. He was a head coach in football, basketball, track and cross country.

What you learn in sports carries into business.” Moyes adds his favorite memories of Weber High included “playing sports and the comradery. We always had a good time. We worked hard, played hard.” Olene Smith Walker, possibly the most accomplished of this year’s in- augurations, graduated from Weber High with the class of 1948.

Thursday was the parade and night pep-rally. “I was really excited to lead the band in the Homecoming parade because the band is doing really well,” says senior Steven Enslow.
