I . . . . . . . . . . . . . ,MA,flwjuneCfaaao!i43, .MJ !0l'y Graduation. Class of '43! Doesn't that send an exciting thrill of rapture through your hearts. seniors? Though we make our departure with lifted heads and pride in our hearts, we find. too, that there are a few tears in our eyes as we dreamily reminisce of blissful days spent with many true and loyal friends at East High School. We fondly look back upon the many activities in which we participated, upon our victories and conquests, the honors bestowed upon us, and our teachers whom we have grown to love dearly. It was in 1940 that we entered East High School, out-numbering all the other classes in the building with the complete total of four hun- dred and eighty-five students. Though we were awed and bewildered by the immensity of the school and the hordes of stu- dents, we soon learned to make our way about quite well, and were eager to share in the many privileges and activities open to those who might take advantage of the opportunity. We uttered exclamations of joy at the dis- covery of the immense cafeteria where we found tempting dishes prepared by expert dietitians. We found our teachers and the upperclassmen willing and capable of helping us through many of the little trials and tribulations which we found we must meet as 10B's. We marveled at the many courses of study which we were given the opportunity of choos- ing. We entered our lovely library somewhat mys- tified as to where we might locate the books for which we were searching, but found our capable librarian and her assistants willing to explain its mysteries and help us in locating books nec- Page Twenty-two essary for our school work and our own pleas- ure in leisure hours. Some of our members were elected by their classmates as student representatives in council and senate. Others of us took an active part as X-Ray reporters, assistant librarians, ofiice workers, aides in the attendance department, cafeteria workers, and assistants in the book ex- change. We closely followed sports, and our hearts filled with pride as we joined in lusty cheers for our team. We excitedly attended the senior play and small one-act plays presented for us in the Little Theatre which we soon grew to love. We contributed generously to Red Cross and shoe funds, and gladly assisted in the filling of Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets for the needy. Many of us joined various organizations and clubs in the school as Girl Reserves and Hi-Y. For the seniors, we felt the utmost respect as they strolled through the halls in the dignity found commonly among all seniors. We soon took up our place in the world of fashions and followed our seniors in wearing apparel. We girls adorned ourselves in baller- ina skirts, sloppy sweaters, saddle shoes, and pig-tails: our boys, not to be out-done, took to close-shaven hair cuts commonly referred to as pineapples. Our boys organized one of the first cooking classes in the city and received considerable at- tention from all the other schools. In our midst we found great talent in the field of music, for many of our members par- ticipated in Gamut programs, orchestra, and band. Others of our group found their talent centered in art and journalism. S9206 0 Our Time rushed by, and we found ourselves al- most sooner than we realized it in our second year as juniors. Though some of our friends dropped along the way, the greater percentage of us remained to join in the activities of the school. From our student body, we organized a Chemistry Club and the very first Math Club. Our boys became outstanding in sports, and of these boys we are justly proud, feeling that some day from them we shall have future All- Americans. We produced members skilled in extempore speaking and debate, thus winning a district championship in the Ohio Speech League which had been held for three consecutive years by North High School. Those of us engaged in secretarial and com- mercial work learned to improve our speed and accuracy in typing through a special demon- stration by a former world's champion typist. The first string quartet of East High School was organized during the February semester of '42 directed by our honorable Mr. Steinhauer. Finding the world in a sad state of war, we helped all we could in paper drives and conser- vation programs. We skimped and saved our pennies and nickels from our lunch money and weekly allowances so that we might buy more and more war stamps and bonds in a glorious effort to get those essential war materials needed in aiding our fathers, brothers, and sweethearts to return that much sooner to their homes. Those of us who were members of Girl Re- serves and Hi-Y attended get-acquainted parties for incoming 10B students. We were among the first to buy carnations on a special day set aside by Girl Reserves so that some deserving girls might go to camp during the hot summer months.
