The memories that one person finds in a picture may be totally different from the memories that another person finds in that same picture, and this will make the yearbook different to every person who sees it. Because of this, we hope that the 1987 yearbook will mean as much to you as it does to us. Co-editors Vicki Schoen and Renee Kovach Upper Right-.

The halls were decorated with everything from balloons to streamers, locker signs to run-throughs, and ribbons to buttons. The 10 members of the homecoming court spent the morning watching the weather out the window. The pom-pon girls, volleyball girls and cheerleaders wore their uniforms, and the football players wore their jerseys. Some students even painted half of their face green and the other half white. What was going on? It was homecoming game day and WHS was going all out; each class even spent a week making a float for the afternoon parade. As everything turned out, the court had nothing to worry about because it didn't rain. The parade was a big spirit raiser for the school, and with the school fired up, the football players had no problem getting fired up for the game. The Juniors took first place with their float "The Wonderful World of Victory". Mr. Pillen watches his s ;hool's parade with pride. • The football guys really look enthused about the game!

They brainstormed for a different idea—an idea that would make this homecoming special and magical; and magical was the word to describe "The Wonderful World of Disney". Complete with a huge video screen and all the Disney characters created by the Art 3 and Art 4 classes, the Student Council brought all the magic of Disneyland to WHS. The dance was a complete success and a terrific end to an exciting week of Homecoming fun. Jeannie Boling and Denise Andris ask Donald Duck how his sunflowers grow.
