THE 1940
SENIOR OCCIDENT
Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County · Yearbook Collection
Tomorrow can we dare to face Have we the right to tell the truth,
A life that's new—a different place? To live as rebels, wild as youth;
If our world and niche should go, To fight, have peace, to hate or love,
Could we survive with what we know? To own the land or skies above?
Could we succeed by longing for The only rights we have are those
The things ice had but haw no more? Opinion gives us, I suppose.
There is no safety, peace, or rest
In things of substance we request;
But in the port of shadows lie
Elusive things for which we die;
The things we feel but never see
In questions of Infinity.

A L MA M A T ER i
Proudly waves old West High's emblem
Black and Orange fair,
Floats triumphant in the breezes;
No dishonor there.
Student days have fondest memories,
Comrades here we stand,
As our troth to Alma Mater
Pledge we hand in hand.
From thy halls dear Alma Mater
We at length must part,
But thy memory shall not perish
From one student's heart.
Far away on life's broad highway
All must fortune try;
Still our loving hearts shall cherish
Thoughts of thee, West High.
