. 2 W East High School is not composed en- tirely of people devoted solely to academ- ics. East student life begins after the sound of the 2:30 bell.

Q 1 L fl .A V Senior Carl Fuermann is triumphant after passing his Physics. Everyone at one time or another has probably wondered what it would be like to be rich and famous, while others dream, someday of becom- ing a big star. For some people, this dream is not far away. It is a dream worth striving for. There are a few lucky people in this world who were born with extraordinary talents and do not have to spend time perfecting them. Then there are others who spend hours and hours improving their skills. But either way, they both ha ve a unique talent that puts them ahead of the rest. These people are the ones who always seem to be the lead in the school plays or musicals or get to do the solos in the choir or instrumental con- certs. But these students deserve this. These people may spend long hours practicing and rehearsing, but it will eventually pay off when they will get their big break.

All are responsible for shortening the time between Friday and Monday, a time when East students pause to catch their breath and gather forces in preparation for the trials and tribulations of the oncoming Week. Lack of prepara tion for the week ahead brings out the innovative genius in East students. Methods of procrastination range from such mundane practices as doing one's nails or talking on the tele- phone, to more original activities, includ- ing cleaning the Hsh tank or having one's ears pierced. Those extremely desperate students occasionally end up organizing closets, but only as a last resort. Altogether, the individuality of East's students create a multitude of possibili- ties beyond academics. . , . , at the and of the road la happiness, you will meet yaurscy
