But under- neath these superficialities lies a some- thing without which the EASTONIAN would dwindle into nothingness. both in meaning and actuality-friendship, that abstraction oft lauded into trite- ness. Only mutual friends, only com- rades, sweethearts perpetuate our EASTONIAN. PREFACE As friendship grown older grows richer, so this book must have a shade more meaning as the passing of each year brings a new, closer relationship with that early chum: or it may be that time will fade the sharp memory of long since lost school-mates into dear, hazy mellowness of reflection. Whatever the Fates may decree, we, the EASTONIAN staff of 1934, hope that these pictorial mementos will bring to you an enjoyment, the value of which will mount to pricelessness. DEDICATION When man begins to thirst for the beautiful-the beautiful in nature and human nature, in paintings and poetry. in work and play, in all of life-his education is progressing along the path that leads to a higher civilization. To this love for beauty in art as embodied by Kansas City's William Rockhill Nelson Gallery of Art and the Atkins Museum is dedicated this book. ,ili O I f ' ,f', wWFM'FVg rm. l ffl!

N OWLIN PRINCIPAL ftdcaffwww There are many types of students among the throngs at East High School, and arising from this mixture of personalities are many problems demanding a fair solution. This situation calls for a judge or compromiser, such a person is our principal, Clifford H. Nowlin. Settling disputes in such a way that everyone is somewhat consoled is a Herculean task, yet it is efficiently executed by our principal. There are other sides to the character of Mr. Nowlin, howeverisidelines which would combine to make any job more pleasant. He has first introduced many students to that zenith of thought and expressionk-poetryf-through verse of his own com- position and that of acknowledged masters. Also, Mr. Nowlin has enlivened many a classroom by narrating in his expressive way some short story, legend, or tale. Through these personal contacts with the pupils, Mr. Nowlin enjoys a popularity with the students that is seldom attained by a high school principal. E141 , fig Mmm . 644427474 Wet ffmaa EASTONTAN 11934 l 1 IOHN R. WAHLSTEDT VICE-PRINCIPAL i Through his sprightly jesting and merry greetings, Mr. John R. Wahlstedt adds that touch of informality so essential to an enterprising faculty. This friend-making diver- sion, however, does not interfere with his administrative duties, which he executes with speed and efficiency even though he teaches three classes and engages in numerous outside activities. Setting an inspiring example to the students, Mr. Wahlstedt is, figuratively speaking, a "glutton" for difficult labor, which he cheerfully effects. The combination of such desirable qualities constitutes a character and personality that is an invaluable aid in East High's speeding rise to distinction. l15l 11934 EASTONIAN EVELYN L. GILCHRIST LOUISE HATCH NON-DEPARTMENTAL TEACHERS Several members of East High School's faculty have duties which are not strictly departmental in nature, but which bring them into a position of service to the school as a whole. These persons have, in untold instances, smoothed out diliiculties for students, given advice in matters pertaining both to school and private affairs, and in many ways added to the comfort, pleasure, and educational advantages of our school home. To Miss Louise Hatch is entrusted the important office of Counselor. To her any student may go who needs advice. The duties of Counselor include giving advice as to school study programs, suggestions to failing pupils, help in solving financial prob- lems-in fact any aid which will enable the student to adjust himself to his present situation. On visiting Miss Hatch, pupils know that they will receive able counsel and better still, that they will find a friend. Miss Alice Walton, who is completing her first year at East, has the important duty of caring for the health of the students in the school. She administers first aid and checks the health of the pupils. This year she assisted members of the Tuberculosis Society in giving tuberculin tests to many of the pupils and teachers. E161 EASTONIAN 11934 RUTH ROBINSON FRANCES ROMINE HELEN XVILKIN Miss Evelyn Gilchrist, who has presided over the study hall for the past eight years, has made this a quiet, pleasant place in which to study. Although she teaches no classes, she has the responsibility of a home room two or three times the size of a regular class- room. She must keep the records of all of these pupils and assist them in making their programs. Beside performing these duties, Miss Gilchrist answers helpfully numerous questions and often directs pupils in their studies. Miss Ruth Robinson. registrar, and Miss Helen Wilkin, clerk, not only keep the records of the school and assist the Principal and Vice-Principal, but they cheerfully stand ready to advise and aid all who need information. Mrs. Frances Romine, East's new cafeteria manager, has, in her years's presence here, proved herself a happy addition to East's faculty. She helps to make the lunch period pleasant by providing a variety of good foods, attractively displayed. Mrs. Romine has won the gratitude of the student body by her generous cooperation in opening the cafeteria for social events, including dinners and dances. Miss Rachel Agg, librarian, and her staff help the students to make the most of the advantages oifered by the excellent new library. The staff is always ready to assist the students in their research work and to aid teachers by placing in readiness books required for special assignments. Each year the Freshman and Sophomore English classes go to the library for instruction in the use of the facilities offered. Attractive displays of new books tempt the reader into unvisited fields. l17l 119341 EASTONTAN STUDENT COUNCIL-FIRST TERM 1 Third Roar: Miller, Parrent, Stout, Taylor, Lemen, Koutelas, Weis, jackson, Johnson.

The method of electing members to the Council was altered this year. The person who is selected as home room president automatically becomes the Student Council representative. In this way, it was hoped that the Council would gain the best person from each class. The Council, in studying better methods of student government, attended a conven- tion of the Student Councils from the mid-western states during the month of October at Wyandotte High School in Kansas City, Kansas. The Student Council drew up a resolution condemning rowdyism on street cars on the part of students enroute to the basket ball games. This resolution created favorable comment from oilicials all over the city. It was unanimously adopted by the student body in an assembly. i18l TEASTONTIAN 119341 STUDENT CQUNCII:-SECOND SEMESTER Third Rory: Castor, Stout, Tyler, Hall, Erickson, Mathis, Taylor, Callen.

A new system for recognizing the honor students of each term was also worked out. The new system will be inaugurated next September. The method of choosing Student Council ofhcers for next year has also undergone a change. A school-wide nominating ballot has been held. Later the officers will be chosen. l19l 119341 IEASTUNIIAN IN MEMORIAM ELEANOR DOPP MARGUERIT E STOLDER "They are not dead, they do not sleep: They have awakened from the dream of life."

The members were installed in assembly on Friday, April 27. Dr. E. L. Hobbs gave the address. Noreen Darr explained the purpose of the organization, Clifford Lemen explained the symbol.

SENIOR I-IISTORY Spiritedly awakening from vacation indolence, this Senior Class exerted all its bound- less energy and inventive powers in effecting a thrilling election campaign that has never been equaled at East High, Heroized by his many admirers, supported by an ingenious campaign manager, and promising a new deal in the selection of committees, Dennis Cubine triumphantly gained the presidency. The campaign was marked by the streamers, the secret alliances, and the candidates' speeches in assembly. This feverish outburst of Ballot was selected, for favorite sons and the ranks of the exalted. emotion was still present when the Senior daughters were boosted with enthusiasm to to the more serious and routine matter of of the characters in the dramatic production, The Senior Class next hgured in the news The Seniors now turned their attention selecting appropriate pins and rings. Many "Twelfth Night," were Seniors in disguise. when it presented an entertaining and educational assembly program, based on voca- tions. That comedy of love and disillusionment, "Seventeen,l' inspired more than a hundred talented Seniors to try out for parts, thus supplying more than adequate material for the director. A clever imitation of St. Peter's lounge and court room started the Senior-junior day with laughter-inspiring sarcasm. A change from the common type of commencement exercise is planned this year, demonstrating this Senior Class's desire to discard wornout traditions. l43l ,M MV?

The third period is a literal oasis in a desert of ditlicult subjects and long hours. Here pleasure is combined with business and the fusion is a happy one. Ward school days were, oh, so different from the high school ones. Then there was just one room and one teacher to whom the students reported every day. That room was "my room," and the teacher, "my teacherl' to the youngsters. But in high school, there are so many teachers, usually a di1Terent teacher for every subject, that it is hard to point out one room and claim it as "mine" The home room aims to bring to the high school the "homey" atmosphere that pervaded the rooms in ward school. Upper classmen and lower classmen join hands in one cause during the third hour. lt is from these respective classes that the students' legislative body, the Student Council, is formed. The Council functions only through the cooperation accorded it by each individual home room, its ideas and purposes are made possible only by these respective rooms. All business carried on in school is transacted in the home rooms. All ticket sales campaigns are conducted through this medium. All play, football, and basketball tickets are handled in the home room, and announcements of all sorts are made directly to the students in the students' own room. Closer contact between students and teachers is one of the desirable factors in high school. This contact is supplied by the home room teacher to each student in his or her room during third hour. The whole atmosphere is changed, and, instead of being just a class, the home room becomes something even more valuable, more real. In fact, the home room is a fine representative of East's patriotic spirit. All reforms spring from the masses, and all constructive changes originate in the home rooms. So quietly and efficiently does the home room organization operate, that such an organization might be easily overlooked by the general public. To bring this to the public's attention, we dedicate one section of the Eastonian.

ACADEMICS 119341 IEASTONIIAN MARIE BURRUS GARLAND NICHOLS AMANDA RUCKER ENGLISH Upon the English language rest all our activities of thought and communication. An understanding and a ready use of the language of this country are necessary to everyone for two purposes: First, as a tool by which to learn the facts in other fields and to communicate one's own ideas clearly and convincingly, and secondly, as a means of broadening the range of one's recreation, and of deepening one's spiritual appreciations. Because of the necessity of English, this department is the largest in the school, having the most teachers and pupils. In order to fulfill its two-fold purpose, the English Department at East offers to the students courses in both literature and composition. In the literature courses an attempt is made to help the students select good books for reading. In the composition courses the students learn the fundamentals of oral and written expression and of original writing. Three years of English are compulsory for graduation from high school. The fourth year is optional. The Freshman English course contains both composition and literature. The composi- tion deals, to a considerable extent, with sentence structure and grammar. - The Sophomore and junior English courses are divided, half of each is devoted to E663 l i IEASTONIIAN 11934 v 3 se M EDITH TARBET EVA VAN NATTA CELIA WARING composition and half to literature. The composition courses consist of grammar review and study of correct word usuage, and deal in some detail with the study of the four forms of composition-narration, description, exposition, and argument, with original expression in each of these forms. Pupils in these courses are required to write brief stories, autobiographies, essays, and poems, to plan arguments for debates, and to give oral expression to arguments and narratives. Sophomore literature is a study of American authors, junior literature, of both American and English authors. Senior English is a study of the history of English literature, including literary movements, authors, and their works. In addition, the students in this course write reports on authors and on literature read outside of class. In accordance with the belief of modern educators that more profit is derived from the rapid reading of many books than from the intensive reading of only a few classics, the English Department at East provides for its students a wide variety of books for study in the literature courses. For the use of these books, the students have paid fifty cents each semester in which the books were used. By means of this rental system East High students are saved many dollars in the purchasing of books. The members of the English Department are Miss Marie Burrus, Mr. Garland Nichols, Miss Amanda Rucker, Miss Edith Tarbet, Miss Eva Van Natta, Miss Dorothy Varney, and Miss Celia Waring. Miss Louise Hatch also teaches a class in English. E671 319341 EASTONJIAN MAY FARR HIATT PEARL JENKINS SOCIAL SCIENCE The one way through which we may learn of the past of the world is the study ot history. History, to a certain extent, repeats itself, and so by a study of the past, we will learn how to confront the questions which the present and the future hold. The history courses at East High School offer the students a study of the civilization of the past, and by interpreting the past, these courses provide a better understanding of our present situation and suggest a solution of our modern problems. In the Freshman year, a course in Civics is required. This course acquaints the student with the institutions of the country and also discusses the questions of the group and the individual. It also helps to prepare the student for full-fledged citizenship. World History, or the study of World Civilization, is a survey of civilization from the beginning of recorded time to today. It shows the part in civilization dihferent periods of history have played. It shows the connection between periods of history. This subject is offered in the Sophomore or junior years. American History is oftered in the junior or Senior years. This course attempts to establish a definite knowledge of the history of the United States. lt aids the student in the use of the library and explains easy research methods. The students consider national problems and their solution, and discuss the duties of citizenship. msg IEASTONIIAN 11934 B. VU. MCDANIEL JESSIE MARIE VUILLITT Courses are also offered to Seniors in Sociology, American Government, and Economics. These sub'ects, which are o tional, ex lain to the student the art he is ex ected to l P P P P play in the world. Civics, American History, and one other year's work in Social Science are required for graduation from East High School. The History Department has this year worked out a plan whereby students who desire a grade above the average must do extra work. In order to receive a grade of "S" or "E," extra points must be turned in. Ten points are necessary for an and five for an Points may be made on original maps, original cartoons, live hundred word essays, and thousand word book reports. Oral reports are given in class. In the belief that the better the understanding between countries, the greater the friendship, members of the World History classes have joined an International League. Each member is given the name of a person who lives in a foreign country to whom he must write. This fosters world friendship. The teachers of history at East High School are: Miss Pearl Jenkins, Miss May Farr Hiatt, Miss Jessie Marie Willitt, Mr. B. W. McDaniel, and Mr. E. F. Thelen. Teachers from other departments who are affiliated with the department are: Miss Melba Schoenlein, Miss Virginia McClure, Miss Bereneice Cannon, and Miss Edith Tarbet. I69l 119341 EASTUNIIAN J. N. BROADLICK W. S. ESTHER NW. M. GRUBE SCIENCE Modern civilization rests upon science. The material prosperity of the world advances only through the achievements in the various fields of science, therefore, a mastery of the sciences is one of the most important phases of education. The scientific knowledge of the world and its relation to man is so vast today, and so many are the fields in which further study can be carried on, that no one person can hope to master more than a small portion of it. Therefore, for convenience of study and investigation, science has been divided into a number of branches, the following of which are taught at East High School. General Science takes from each special branch of science the essentials needed in understanding and using the common things of our environment. It is offered as a Freshman course. Biology is the study of plants and animals. This Sophomore course includes in its activities field trips, simple experiments, and the study of common trees and wild flowers. Either Biology or General Science must be taken. Physiography deals with the earth's surface and its history. This year an observatory has been established for forecasting the weather. Physiography is a Sophomore, junior, or Senior subject. I 70 l EASTUNIAN 11934 ANNA K. MCGLOIN MELBA SCHOENLEIN Horticulture is the study of the culture and growing of vegetables, fruits, and orna- mental plants. Two years are offered. The first deals with plants in general and the conditions under which they should be grown, while the advanced class is instructed in the proper placing and use of flowers and shrubs in landscaping. The school garden and greenhouse, adjoining the campus, are used in both years. Horticulture may be taken in the junior and Senior years. Physics relates of certain forms of energy Qnamely, motion, heat, light, sound, and electricityj and their functions. An assembly program given by the Physics class aptly expounded the strange powers of electricity. Physics is also offered as a junior or Senior course. Chemistry is the study of the combination and decomposition of essential materials. Most of the work in this course is done in the large Chemistry laboratory. It is a Junior or Senior subject. Zoology is a detailed examination of the character and habits of animals. Either juniors or Seniors may take Zoology. Physiology is the study of the human body. Psychology deals with the powers and functions of the mind. Both Physiology and Psychology are half-year subjects, the former is a junior or Senior subject, while the latter is open only to Seniors. The science teachers at East and their respective subjects are: Miss Emir Ammerman, Psychology, Mr. N. Broadlick, General Science, Boys' Physiology, and Physics, Mr. W. M. Grube, Biology and Horticulture, Miss Louise Hatch, Girls' Physiology, Miss Anna McGloin, Zoology and Biology, and Miss Melba Schoenlein, Biology. E711 119341 EASTONIAN n ' Y i L Y I 'x EMIR F. AMMERMAN VEE FLINN MATHEMATICS The Mathematics Department is an important department in any high school. Mathe- matics was known long before the time of the Egyptians, the first to develop practical geometry. The Greeks, using what the Egyptians had learned, gave to geometry its present form. Some students have the idea that all subjects dealing with Mathematics are hard. This is not true, and such students should be convinced of the real value of Mathematics. The teachers of Mathematics have tried to do this. At East High, Algebra 1 through 4, Geometry, plane and solid, Mathematics 1 and 2, and Trigonometry are taught. Algebra is a study of equations. It is the calculation of functions and the manipula- tion and reduction of formulas. Algebra, instead of using numbers for special cases, uses letters or symbols for the use of general terms. This is the foundation of all higher Mathematics. Geometry is a study of ground measure. It is the science of perfection. Geometry is used much in construction. Trigonometry made Astronomy possible. Most of the projects carried on by the students of this department are required. Several of the Algebra students have made special graphs. These are made on regular graph paper and are placed on exhibition. Mathematics helps the students to develop orderly methods of thinking, to learn the value of law, and to understand the meaning of infinity. The teachers of Mathematics at East are Miss Emir F. Ammerman, Mr. N. Broadlick, Mr. W. S. Esther, Miss Vee Flinn, Mr. Baird Parks, Miss Melba Schoenlein, Mr. R. E. Tiefel, and Mr. R. Wahlstedt. l72l IEASTONIIAN 119341 BERENEICE CANNON VIRGINIA MCCLURE LANGUAGES Because of increasing inter-relation of nations, it is well for business men to know different languages. At East two languages are taught this year, one ancient and one modern. Four years of either of these subjects may be taken. Latin, although sometimes considered a dead language, still lives in the other tongues. Many of the modern languages are based upon Latin, therefore, this is an important subject. Furthermore, a knowledge of this language is essential to persons who expect to enter professional or scientific careers. The Latin classes at East have undertaken several special projects. The pupils of the first year classes made posters with Latin derivatives on them. The second year pupils made dolls with costumes to represent the characters in their lessons. A Latin banquet was held this year for the students of Latin. The menu was written in Latin and only food used by the Romans was served. Every student present was dressed in a Roman costume. Spanish, the modern language taught at East, is becoming more important each year because of the close relations between Latin America and the United States. Beside studying the fundamentals of Spanish, the students learn songs. Some members ot' the senior class made posters to represent different phases of life in the Spanish speaking nations. One of the most interesting projects carried on this year was the making of Spanish cross-word puzzles. Students in the Spanish classes were pleased when Miss Annette Moore wrote them a letter in Spanish expressing her pleasure in speaking to the combined departmental clubs. The teachers affiliated with the Language Department at East are: Miss Virginia McClure, Latin, and Miss Bereneice Cannon, Spanish. F L 11934 IEASTONIIAN ASSEMBLY PROGRAMS The East High assemblies were held regularly on Friday of each week during the school year. In these assemblies, programs of both educational and entertainment value were presented. Distinguished speakers and entertainers composed the talents represented. The first musical program of the year was presented September 15 by the late Mr. Rudolph King, pianist and composer, and Mr. Claude Rader, violinist, the instructors of young musicians who played a program of classical selections. The Missouri Valley Glee Club presented a group of songs on March 22. Four girls, students of Miss Virginia Stroud, gave a piano recital on March 29. The girls were all students of Lee's Summit High. On May 3, the combined Glee Club of William Jewell College, under the direction of Mr. David Grosch, entertained the assembly. Distinguished outside lecturers and entertainers composed a great part of the assemblies presented. Dr. Stratton Brooks, former president of the University of Missouri, defined personal liberty in a democracy, October 13. On October 28, Dr. Richard L. Sutton jr., world traveller, gave a lecture on bear hunting in the Arctic, and the lives of the Norwegian people. 'iLife is what you make it," was the theme of a message to students from the Reverend B. M. Ridpath, who spoke in assembly November 17. On November 29, Wliite Cloud Smith, dramatic reader, delighted every one with his able impersona- tions of all five characters in the play, "David Crockett." A special assembly was called on November 27 to hear Dr. Frederick Houghton, who represented a group of twenty missionaries traveling through the United States on a speaking tour. Maurice Dankenbring, winner of the 3500 prize as the best boy farmer of America, was the guest November 24. Dr. A. H. Cordier, naturalist, gave an illustrated lecture on birds. Eagle Plume, a young Blackfoot Indian, presented a program of tribal songs and dances. He also corrected some of the erroneous ideas about his people. He wore native costumes. Two skits, "A Romantic Heart," and "A Private Household Scene of Henry VIII and Queen Catherine Parr," were given by students of Kansas City Teachers College in the December 15 assembly. The school did not lack able entertainers among its own members. At the beginning of the year, both Mr. Nowlin and Mr. Wahlstedt gave lectures on the Century of Progress. Several amazing electrical experiments were presented on the stage by the physics class of Mr. Broadlick. A program of inspiring Christmas music was sung by the Choral and Glee Clubs, synchronized with the WHB studio organ. Ferrel Heady '33 presented the school a green duck floor cloth, a gift from last year's Senior Class, on February 2. Booth Tarkington's "Station YYYY" was presented by the expression classes in assembly February 16. On March 2, the Home Economics Department pre- sented a fashion parade. A program commemorating George Washington and Abraham Lincoln brought students to the platform February 23. A senior assembly, an innovation this year, held the school's attention March 16. Vocations demonstrated by seniors, were the subject. E741 5 PRACTICAL ARTS 11934 JEASTONIAN MINNIE B. BAKER MABEL M. COBB COMMERCE Upon commerce rests the prosperity of every nation. Because of this, it is essential that the persons employed in commercial duties have training. A large number of the people employed in the commercial departments of business concerns have never been to college. Therefore, the necessary training for these positions must be received in high school. The Commerce Department at East endeavors to give these fundamentals to the students. There are seven commercial subjects offered at East. These include two years of Bookkee in , Shorthand, and T ewritin g one ear of Commercial Arithmeticg one P 8 . YP 8 1 Y D I term each of Commercial Geography, Commercial Law, and Business English. Shorthand, Typing, and Commercial Law and Commercial Geography are an aid to persons in any business. The second year Shorthand pupils are given dictation and then are required to type from their notes. This gives practice both in taking dictation carefully and transcribing it accurately. Business En lish is a stud of business letters and other forms of En lish com osition . 3 . . Y . . . .3 P . eculiar to commercial life. Commercial Arithmetic and Bookkee inf are both im- P , Q I P is D , portant subjects for anyone wishing to be an accountant. Valuable application of the work done in bookkeeping is made, as the students of this subject keep the records of all sales campaigns conducted in the school, and receive the money for tickets when it is sent in by the home rooms. E761 EASTONJIAN 11934 LOUISA P. JOHNSTON BAIRD PARKS A system which has proved to be of much profit both to teachers and to pupils was inaugurated last year and has grown in popularity and scope this year. This is a plan whereby students of Shorthand and Typing act as secretaries to teachers of their choice. At a time agreed upon, the pupil meets the teacher each week to take dictation of letters, do typing, cut stencils for tests, and do any other allied work which a secretary might be expected to perform. This plan, while aiding the teachers, provides the student with real experience in commercial work, and gives him practice in working under the direc- tion of various personalities. Each teacher sends to the commercial teacher a statement of the quality of work done by his secretary, and this is applied upon the student's grade in shorthand and typewriting. Members of the Commerce Department have been offered unusual opportunities this year to see real business firms at work. The students were given a chance to View demonstrations of the Ediphone, Comptometer, and electric typewriter. The students of this department were taken to different business concerns and shown the work done there. The work of the Typing Department has been aided this year by the installation of new equipment in the form of new typewriters and typing books. The teachers in the Commercial Department at East High are Miss Minnie Baker, Miss Mabel Cobb, Miss Louisa P. Johnston, Mr. Baird Parks, and Miss Melba Schoenlein. l77l 1934 IEASTUNJIAN LYNNE C. MGNROE JOSEPH A. STADLER R. E. TIEFEL INDUSTRIAL ARTS The Industrial Arts Department gives the student a chance to study three types of work from which he may wish to choose a life occupation. The three branches of this department taught at East are Drafting, General Metal Wfork, and Wood Work. Drafting is the language between the planner and the executor. If the men who do the drafting are not well trained, errors may be made which would result in the mis- construction of all things that are made of raw materials. Four years of Drafting are offered. The first two years offer general mechanical draw- ing on which the more complicated work of the next two years is based. One and two-story houses are drawn, and all sorts of machines are planned. Several students have drawn plans for airplanes. Mr. R. E. Tiefel is the instructor of Drafting. General Metal is a subject constituted of several metal working vocations, among which are foundry casting, metal machine operation, oxy-acetylene welding, ornamental iron work, forging and heat treating of metals, sheet metal and copper work. Practical application of this work is made through the construction of small machines, ornamental floor lamps. tables and various sheet metal projects. Mr. joseph A. Stadler is the instructor of Metal Work at East. Wood Work is a continuation of the work taught in ward school. In the first course of Wood Work, simple furniture is constructed. The advanced students attempt more complicated projects such as motor boats, porch swings, and cedar chests. This depart- ment has given valuable assistance to the school during the past year in the construction of stage sets for the various school entertainments, and also in such other equipment as cabinets, music racks, etc. Mr. Lynne C. Monroe is the Wood Work instructor. l73l EASTONIAN 11934 GENEVIEVE NOXWLIN BENETA REID HQME ECONOMICS Home Economics has become a very important part of school curriculum. Modern life has complicated greatly the managing of a home, therefore the women of today must be trained in both economic and social phases of housekeeping. The Home Economics Department of East, with its two branches, Foods and Clothing, gives more training than its name implies. At present, only two years of Foods are offered to East students. The first year deals with food preservation, the planning of meals, and the care of children. The second year students are schooled in the care of the sick, the planning and equipping of the home in addition to the course of study offered in the first year. The Foods Classes served a Faculty Tea and also served the Roman Banquet. Previous to this year, Foods has been offered to girls only, but this year a Foods class for boys was inaugurated. A cake contest was held by the Foods classes this year. The boys and girls of the advanced classes participated. The instructor of Foods at East is Miss Genevieve Nowlin. The Clothing branch of this department strives to develop in the students a line taste in the choice of clothing. The girls study the care of their clothes and how to choose becoming clothes as well as how to make them. Each year a Fashion Show is given, and this past year it appeared on the night of May 15. Miss Beneta Reid is the Clothing instructor at East. l79l Y kg W 1, MQW MW E Q Eg FINE ARTS 119341 EASTONIAN ART To the student of Art, East offers a varied program ' X of personal artistic development and of service to his MARTHA ABBOTT school. It is the aim of this department to cultivate the natural talent of the students and to give opportunities for practical expression of their work by co-operation in school activities. Four years of Art work are offered at East High. In the first year the student receives training in the essentials of Art. Block and lower case lettering, elementary design, soap sculpture, and pencil drawing comprise the year's work. During the second year, the work done in the first year is carried to an advanced stage, and in addition, textiles, block printing, poster drawing, simple oil paintings, dynamic symmetry, perspective, and leather work are studied. The third and fourth years, in addition to advanced work in the foregoing fields, offer a study of batik dyeing, charcoal drawing, metal craft, spatter painting, and drawings made from cast models. The Art classes of East seek to aid the activities of every department. For all the plays and entertainments at East, the Art classes make advertising posters. This year they furnished all the posters for the Outburst, main and side shows, the Harvest Moon, "McGufTey School Days," "Twelfth Night," and "Seventeen," The posters for the publicity campaigns of the Echo and the Eastonian were also made by the Art Depart- ment. The cuts for both the Echo and the Eastonian were made in the Art classes. The Art classes, assisted by the Industrial Arts classes, made the scenery for "Twelfth Nightu and "Seventeen" Menu cards were made by the advanced classes for the Christmas dinner ot the sailors for a ship stationed in the Pacific. In addition, the Art Department co-operates in community projects by providing posters for publicity. Miss Martha Abbott is the teacher of Art at East. I 32 l EASTONIAN 1934 SPEECH The Speech Department at East takes a very active part in the school curriculum. This department is divided into three parts, Expression, Public Speaking, CECILE BURTQN and Dramatics. Students from this department have received city-wide recognition for speeches and parts in plays. A Shakespearean play was produced by the school successfully. "Twelfth Night" was not only a financial success, but it showed to Kansas Citians that a difficult play could be presented well by high school students. Plays, directed by Miss Burton, have been presented before the students in assembly. These are: "The Man in the Bowler Hat," "The Wedding," and "Station YYYY." These were given also before outside audiences: "The Man in the Bowler Hat," at the Athenaeum: "The Wedding," at Van Brunt Presbyterian Church and at Kensington School, and "Station YYYY," before the Parent-Teachers Association. The Senior Play, "Seventeen," was a pleasant presentation in a lighter form. Not only do members of the Public Speaking class learn the theory of speaking and use it to advantage in the school, but they have used their talents and training for the benefit of the community. This department trains the speakers who go out each year to address churches and other organizations on moral and civic questions. Students of Public Speaking were active this year in soliciting support for the Charity Campaign, and in speaking on the subject of temperance. A newspaper test of the most important happenings in the world for the past year was given to the class. The ten highest papers were sent to the Scholastic headquarters for the awards. This class also has carried on a debate. Seven contestants out of the nine in the oral events of the Literary Contest were students of this department. The Dramatics Department has grown in prestige each year. For next year, a new drama class is being planned. Miss Cecile Burton is the director of all the plays, the coach of all the speeches, and the teacher of the Dramatics classes. A l83l - 4 11934 EASTONIAN T r CARRIE MARGARET 7 CALDWELL WENDELL M. RH DER MUSIC The Music Department is divided into two parts, vocal and instrumental. The vocal division furnishes an outlet for talented voices. From this department come the singers for most of the school assemblies, while the instrumental music department furnishes the orchestra and band. The girls of the Music 1 and 2 classes have organized the junior Choral Club and the boys who study Music 1 and 2 belong to the junior Glee Club. The Senior Choral and Glee Clubs are provided for students of advanced music. A trio that has won city-wide recognition has been organized by the Senior Choral Club. A quartette from the Senior Glee Club has also been selected. The girls' voice classes are members of the Leider Club. There are also a boys' voice class and a harmony class. Numerous concerts have been given by this department during the past year. The Choral and Glee Club combined to give an unusual Christmas assembly, in which the accompaniment was broadcast from the organ studio of WHB. Separate concerts also have been given by these groups, both within our immediate locality and outside of it. The junior and Senior Choral and Glee Club have also furnished assembly programs. The Glee Club gave its annual concert and dance on May 4. The teachers of vocal music are Mrs. Carrie Margaret Caldwell, Mr. john R. Wahlstedt, and Mr. Wendell M. Ryder. Instrumental music includes Band A and B as well as the orchestra. Each year an increasing number of students enroll in the instrumental music classes. The Band and Orchestra play a very important part in school life. The Band furnishes the East High music at all the football games, and at one basket ball game. Either the Band or the Orchestra plays in the school assembly. At all school plays and entertainments, the Orchestra furnished the musical background. A concert given by the Band and Orchestra was held at the Ashland Theater on May 5. Mr. Wendell M. Ryder instructs the Band and the Orchestra. E812 BOYS' ATHLETICS 119341 EASTONIAN BOYS' ATHLETICS J. C. COHLMEYER E. F. THELEN B. W. MCDANIEI' East High School's Athletic Department has been, indeed, fortunate to have such men as Coach C. Cohlmeyer, Coach Edward Thelen, and Manager B. W. McDaniel, all of whom, aside from building up winning teams, strive primarily to turn out boys well- schooled in the principles of good sportsmanship, clean living, and leadership. Coach Cohlmeyer has charge of the nrst teams in football and basket ball, Coach Thelen trains track and second team football and basket ball men, while Mr. McDaniel keeps the wheels of finance running smoothly. These three men exemplify the ideals and principles which they are endeavoring to instill into the lives of the boys with whom they come in contact. Every boy at East is given a chance to work out and to keep in condition throughout the school year in such a variety of sports as football, basket ball, track, boxing, wrestling, ping pong, volley ball, tennis, and golf.

The pre-season indications were that East would have another exceptionally good team-and so it proved. Although the team did not win the championship, they made a strong bid for it and finished in a tie with Southwest for second place in the Inter- scholastic League. As usual the eleven was small and light, but by their "heads-up" playing, they made themselves a title threat. The backfield men who received first team letters were: Cubine, O'Neal, Fain, Pierce, Schuble, jury, Blankership, and Walter Butler. First squad letters were awarded to these linemen: Argo, Blau, Johnston, Kiloh, Hill, Yates, Hitchcock, Messer, Barbe, Gordon Butler, and Maxwell. At the close of the season the team chose Dennis Cubine, fullback, and Barney O'Neal, left halfback, as co-captains. These two boys, among other things, led the Interscholastic league in the individual scoring contest. East placed Barney O,Neal and Leo Argo on the all-star football team this year.

Firfz Row: Martin, Gordon, McLeroy, G. Miller, Erickson, Gaha. The second team, coached in the fundamentals of football by Mr. Edward Thelen, received for its share, hard work, hard knocks and little recognition for its splendid playing and team spirit. Although the purpose of the second team is primarily to learn the principles and fundamentals of the game, the team ended the season in second place of the Second Team Interscholastic League. Out of the seven games the boys played, they won four, lost two and tied one. Ted Dettweiler and William Slater were elected co-captains. This team, when promoted to the ranks of the first team next year, will give East a team which she can rightly be proud of.

The Bears had an easy time, with the line ripping wide holes through which the veteran backlield galloped for nice gains. The Kansans' only score resulted from a freak play in which an East boy ran past the wrong goal line. In the first league game, the Bruins romped to a 26 to 0 victory over Manual. With the line playing "heads up" football and with Eain, O'Neal, and Cubine running wild, the Crimsons were indeed outclassed. East continued their conquest of the championship by setting the Central Blue Eagles back 18 to O. The Bruins, taking advantage of a high wind, kept the Blue Eagles on the defensive the majority of the time. The Bears displayed a varied attack of sparkling end runs and powerful line plays mixed with a few deceptive passes. In the most exciting and colorful game of the season, the highly rated East team met their first defeat at the hands of the Paseo Pirates in a 6 to O game. During the first half the Paseo eleven, ripping the green and black line into pieces, made the only score of the game. However, the second half of the game was a reversal, and the Bears, with the old fighting spirit, time after time marched down the field to the Pirates' goal line, only to lose the ball on a fumble or on downs. East's championship hope received another blast by coming out on the short end of a 21 to 19 contest with Southwest. The game was marked with sparkling runs made by players of both teams. The Bears returned to form by easily defeating Westport, 18 to O. The Tigers were kept on the defensive the majority of time because of the fine punting of O,Neal, who repeatedly put Westport in the "hole" It was only through numerous East fumbles that the score was kept down. The last league game, with Northeast, saw a purely offensive battle with the final score being tied 24 to 24. The Bears gained an early lead, only to lose it to a fighting Viking team in the last quarter. Neither team scored a point after touchdown. The final game of the season saw a hard fighting green-and-black-clad team go down to defeat 12 to 7 at the hands of the Rockhurst Hawks. East had the answers to everything Rockhurst could pull except two passes. This difference, however, meant victory or defeat! l90l ur ' - -- Z-Y 1, My ew ln f- 4.1 L 1 iEAsToNiAN L,ff,'...M'-f-ff'f""' if'-,I ima FIRST TEAM BAS ET BALI. Pierce, Gordon, Slater, Huff, jury, Blankenship, Trower, Brown, Funston, O'Neal Although the members of East's quintet were small, that fighting spirit which char- acterizes the athletes of East High School was ever present in this team to make it a real championship threat. The team finished in a tie with Northeast for second position in the Interscholastic League. Playing a schedule of ten games, the Bruins won six and lost four. junior Pierce, forward, and Roy jury, center, were elected co-captains by their team- mates. Besides the two captains, Derwin Blankenship, Paul Gordon, Barney O'Neal, and Harold Funston received first team letter awards. NAISIVTITI-l TRGPI-IV The East basket ball team received permanent possession of the Naismith Basket Ball Trophy after winning it for the third consecutive year. This trophy, which corresponds to the Dartmouth Football Trophy, is given to the team in the Interscholastic League having the highest ranking in both scholarship and athletic ability. l91I 1934 IEASTONIIAN BAS KET BALI. The basket ball season was opened with a 14 to 12 victory over the former stars of East. It was a hard, rough game from start to finish, giving the young Bears a severe test. This season's stars showed flashes of mid-season form. The Liberty High School athletes gave East its first taste of defeat, 16 to 5. Although the Liberty boys were bigger and taller, over-caution on the part of the Bruins played a big factor in their defeat. Regaining their stride, the green-and-blacks took their first Interscholastic League hurdle, Manual, 19 to 12. In the first half, the teams were fairly equal, but in the third period, the Bears opened up to put the game "on ice." In the last quarter, the fast quintet exhibited an invulnerable defense. East managed to keep the slate clean, so far as her League standing was concerned, by a fierce rally in the last few minutes to beat Central 19 to 15. The Bears had gained an early lead which was not relinquished until the beginning of the last quarter, when Central pulled up on even terms. The lead changed sides several times in the last quarter. East finally came to life in the closing minutes of play to defeat its opponents. The Bears continued to win by taking a thrilling 14 to 12 victory from Paseo. The game was not decided until after Blankenship had scored a one-handed toss-the ball going in the basket after the gun had sounded, ending an overtime period. Southwest administered East its first league setback in a 10 to 7 contest. The game was purely a defensive battle upon even terms. The lead changed sides several times in the last quarter. Practically all championship hopes vanished after a crushing 35 to 8 defeat adminis- tered at the hands of Westport. East was helpless before the inspired offense offered by the Tigers. Northeast was nosed out 15 to 14 in a game which was marked by the most dramatic finish witnessed in Convention Hall for many years. Players, officials, and fans were involved in heated discussion concerning the Hnal bell at both the end of the regular playing time and the first overtime period. East finally won in the second overtime period after inspired players of both teams had sunk goals to tie the score at the end of the first extra period. After a spirited last quarter rally, Ottawa was defeated 15 to 11. The Kansans com- manded a lead until the last quarter was well under way, when the East boys awoke to hit the Q'bucket" three times in succession. The game was played at Ottawa. The Bears were forced to acknowledge a 14 to 7 defeat the night after the Ottawa game to William Chrisman High School, Independence. The East defense functioned well during the first half to hold William Chrisman to three pointsg but in the last half, the Independence lads broke through to pile up a lead which won the game.

Although it only placed sixth in the Second Team Interscholastic League, East's second team, coached by Mr. Thelen, showed real promise of developing into a splendid team next year. Seven out of the nine boys who lettered were Sophomores. The primary purpose of the second squad is, not to win games, although that is desirable, but to instill the principles and fundamentals of good basket ball into the young players. The boys on this team receive many hard knocks and little credit. The games won and lost do not begin to tell of the team's accomplishments and progress Two of the games went into overtime periods. The squad selected Theodore Dettweiler and William Slater as co-captains. These boys well deserved this honor since they were the ones who filled the squad full of hope and kept it from becoming discouraged. l l lllfil jj, 11934 JEASTONIIAN TRACK We J T f ird Row: Page, Millard, Souther, J.

' J East Highs track team, although lacking championship qualities, made a very creditable showing under the direction of Coach Edward Thelen. The team was not dismayed by the lack of a track and trained hard to develop into a point-winning team. Coach Thelen developed three stars in Eugene Potts, Roy jury, and Paul O'Neal. The "Big Three," along with Gene Huff, won many of East's points.

These classes were under the supervision of Mr. john O. Moore, Y. M. C. A. secretary at East, who coached wrestling and helped Henry Messer teach boxing. The wrestling class had forty-one enrolled with an average attendance of twenty-eight, while the boxing class had thirty-three enrolled with an average attend- ance of twenty-three boys. The purpose of the classes was to instruct and develop the boys in the arts of defensive sports, inasmuch as many authorities consider defensive sports as the best body builders. A tournament was the climax to the season's activities in wrestling, in which sixty- one boys entered the seven different divisions. The winners in their respective weight classes were: 95 pounds, William Reynolds, 105 pounds, Charles Simpson, 115 pounds, Charles Roberts, 125 pounds, Vern Smith, 135 pounds, Eugene Reardon, 145 pounds, Charles Crosby, and 155 pounds, William Brock. TENNIS At the start of school last fall, an elimination tennis tournament was conducted for the purpose of choosing East's representatives in the Interscholastic Tennis Tournament. Thirty-one boys entered the singles, and eleven teams entered the doubles. The singles were won by Charles Brown, and Donald Mossberg and Archie Neas teamed together to win the doubles event. All matches were "run off" at Ashland Square, usually after school although some of the ambitious ones rose early enough to play before school. The Interscholastic matches were played on the Rockhill Tennis Club's courts. The East boys were eliminated in the early rounds. Only Charles Brown qualified for a tennis letter. GOLF East's golf team, composed of Warren Funston, Captain, Harold Funston, Donald Anderton, Paul Gordon, and Clyde Self, placed sixth in the Interscholastic League Golf Tournament held on the Eastwood Hills course. The boys were coached by Mr. R. Wahlstedt. Each school entered a team, composed of four players, and after the contestants had played seventy-two holes apiece, their scores were totaled to give the final rankings. East finished with a team total of 1,526. In the individual scoring Harold Funston won second after shooting a 331 for the seventy-two holes. I95l 111934 EASTONTAN INTRA-MURAI. SPORTS This year more boys have participated in intra-mural sports than ever in the history of East High. Through the co-operation of the coaches, it has been made possible for any boy who desires to do so to work out in a variety of sports any evening after school. BASKET BALL Such wide interest has been shown in basket ball the past year that each class entered three teams, one in each of three leagues. One hundred twenty boys played on these teams, with no boy being allowed to play on more than one team. The junior A team defeated the Senior B team to win the championship after the Senior C team had lost to the Senior B team.

On Tuesday evenings the Boys' Club League, consisting of the Boys' High School Club, Glee Club, Hamilton Literary Society, Opportunity A, Opportunity B, and the R. O. T. C. teams, played, with the Boys' High School Club emerging victorious. On Wednesdays, the Departmental Clubs played. The Commercial Club won first place in this league, which was composed of the Art Club, Band, Biology Club, Kalailu Literary Society, Orchestra, and the Commercial Club. Thursday evenings, the junior-Senior home rooms played, with home room 304 winning the championship. 'The Freshman-Sophomore home rooms battled on Fridays, home room 108 winning. TRACK The Sophomore class, with a combined score of 31M points, won the indoor inter- class track meet. The meet was divided into two classes with 115 pounds marking the separate divisions. The crown in the lighter division went to the Sophomores who had twenty- six points, while the Seniors captured the unlimited division with twenty-seven points. Each class held a qualifying round to pick its athletes for the finals against the other classes. One hundred eight boys participated in these events. PING-PONG Ping-pong rose to new heights in popularity this year. Ping-pong tables were furnished both in B-3 and in the locker room. An elimination inter-class tournament was held, with one hundred ninety-eight boys participating. The four class champions who emerged undefeated were: Freshman, Richard Davies, Sophomore, Ben Schanzerg Junior, Paul Gordon, and Senior, junior Pierce. In the school championship game Schanzer beat Gordon 21-10, 18-21, 21-13, 21-16. 1961 GIRLS' ATHLETICS 119341 EASTUNIAN HAZHLROADS ROSESEGELBAUM GIRLS' ATHLETICS Girls' Athletics is one of the less widely heralded but most worthy departments of East. The Physical Training Department is under the supervision of Miss Hazel Roads and Miss Rose Segelbaum. Its games offer relaxation from the strenuous studies of the day and also afford the girls a chance to develop their bodies. It has many advantages and benefits, and offers a wonderful opportunity for the girls. There are many different types of sports played in the girls' gymnasium. Baseball, volley ball, endball, socker, and stunts are a few of the things taught. The hours are classed as either beginning or advanced groups. Teams to represent both groups are selected, and tournaments between the different teams are held in the girls, gym through- out the year. Baseball is played out-of-doors when the weather permits. This year Miss Segelbaum has undertaken outside recreation in offering a baseball tournament to any girl in school, whether or not she takes gym. The games were played on Monday evenings. Other fields open to the girls are stunts, skill tests in volley ball and baseball as well as dancing. Hygiene is a useful subject that is included in the first year Gym. l98l EASTONIAN 1934 POINT SYSTEM This system is offered with the view of inducing the girls to have a more intense interest in their gym work, and to strive for the rewards that are given to those pro- Hcient in athletic work.

C. unit strives to awaken in every cadet an appreciation of the obligations of citizenship and to prepare the cadet for discharging his duties as a citizen. By taking military training, the cadet is also better fitted to serve his country in case of a major emergency, although he is no more obligated to enter the service than is any other person. Sergeant T. jenkins commands the R. O. T. C. at East High, while Major joseph H. Grant is in charge of the entire Kansas City junior unit. The East High School battalion is composed of three companies and a military band, a total enrollment of 139. The method of choosing the Cadet Colonel has been changed this year. Formerly, this officer was selected entirely by competition between the various schools. This year, and henceforth, each school will choose a Major, who must take a test compiled by Major Grant. The Cadet Major receiving the highest grade will become Cadet Colonel of the Kansas City R. O. T. C. unit. At the annual R. O. T. C. Circus this April, the cadets from East put on a platoon drill with Cadet Lieutenant William Minor in command. East High's R. O. T. C. has also changed the system by which it selects the sponsor oflicers. Cadets picked fifteen senior girls, from whom five were selected by the rest of senior girls. The faculty next promoted three of the live to the rank of Sponsor Captain. Then the vote returned to the cadets, who chose the Sponsor Major. The sponsor olhcers chosen this year: Lucille Cahill, Sponsor Major, Ina Virginia Proctor and Christina Hentschel, Sponsor Captainsg Dorothy Bright and Pauline McHone, Sponsor Lieutenants. f102j EASTONIAN 119341 MAJQI2 EUGENE PQTVS Eugene Potts, who received the promotion to Major in 1933, was the commanding cadet ofhcer of the East High R. O. T. C. unit for the 1953- 34 school year. Major Potts became a cadet in his sophomore year and advanced to the rank of a Cadet Sergeant his junior year. During his senior year, he has advanced from Second and First Lieutenant, to Captain, and finally to Major. He has been associated with the rifle team for three years. During this time, he has won a Wfilliam Randolph Hearst trophy medal, a gold American Legion medal, an expert rifleman's medal and first place in the inter-city rifle match.

Newswriting is a two-term subject. The first semester is devoted to the study of the principles of journalistic g writing, with stress upon the ordinary rules of English DOROTHY VARNEY composition. The second semester is devoted largely to the publication of the East Echo, the school newspaper. Study of newspaper forms is continued, and reports on magazines are made. The course includes a trip to one of the city newspaper plants. Each semester a new staff edits the paper. The special Christmas issue of the Echo won first place at the Missouri Interscholastic Press Association Convention, held at Columbia, Missouri. Honorable mentions were also won by Margaret Hathhorn, Algot johnson, and Archie Neas. Newswriting is open to juniors and Seniors and may be substituted for a third year of English composition. The year-book, the EASTONIAN, is published under the supervision of this depart- ment, although the members of this stafi' are selected from the school at large and need not have taken a course in newswriting. Miss Dorothy Varney is the teacher of journalism, and is adviser to the editorial staffs of the Echo and the Eastonian.

The history of the Hamilton Club resembles a record of business activity, rising, falling, and again rising. Organized in 1928, it ascended to the admirable position of first place in 1952. This year, under the leadership of Mr. Nichols and Mr. Broadlick, the club won second place. Promoting, not only the study of oral and written expression, but also good fellow- ship, the founders and their successors have placed the club in an enviable position. 51161 I, f 5 AZZ,,,,.,.v:,,gi,gJ ff Q if V jrif, '7jL'7ijvefMJ .

Its mem- bers are girls who are interested in literature and in the maintenance of a high scholastic record. Among the outstanding social events of the club are an annual Founders' Day Banquet, a Tea, and a Christmas Party. It takes part in the yearly literary contest with the other literary societies. The principal motives of this organization are as follows: to stimulate the members to do more creative writingg and to promote a greater appreciation of good literature. The advisers are Miss Marie Burrus and Miss Edith Tarbet. I117 I 11934 TEASTONTIAN LITERARY CONTEST Surviving the onslaught of high-tensioned entrants, surviving gruesome, comical, and peppy stunts, along with ridicule-packed lyrics, the Leundis Literary Society managed to squeeze out a first place in one of the most hotly contested literary contests ever held at East. The event, which was held on May 20, was the Seventh Annual Literary Contest. Fighting with an admirable vigor, the Hamilton Literary Society barely missed over- taking its sister club. Kalailu trailed these boys by only one point, while Eulexia and the School-at-Large were forced to occupy fourth and fifth places. The points garnered by Leundis, Hamilton, and Kalailu were fifteen, thirteen, and twelve respectively. The Leundians placed in every event with the exception of essay. Those who restored the rose and gray to its position of eminence of former years are as follows: Evelyn Milholland, whose short story entitled "A Matter of Three Weeks," placed firstg Alice Bauchop, who won second in extemporaneous speaking, Marian Norquist, who placed second in declamationg Lucille Cahill, who took second in poem, and Edna Tarwater, who received third in oration. The high honors in the oral events were taken by the Hamiltons when Paul Busch captured first place in oration, and Kenneth Heady walked away with the gold medal in declamation. Glenn Wolff was the only Hamilton, however, who placed in the written work. He took second in essay. Five Kalailus won medals in their valiant effort to attain supremacy, but they un- fortunately had too many thirds. Their only first was won by Noreen Darr, who was their extemporaneous speaker. Her topic was "Should Germany Be Allowed to Re-arm?" Kenneth Corbett took the silver in oration, and George Lovelace tied for second place in short story. The thirds were taken by Christina Hentschel in poem and Robert Lovelace in essay. A first in poem was won for Eulexia by Laura Jane Gordon on her poem "Shadows" A tie for second in short story written by Ileene Kerr, and a third in declamation by Esther Brown, were the other places taken by the Eulexians. Irene Galbraithls essay, "Squeaks," placed her at the top of the essayists, and Leland Gordy placed third in extemporaneous speaking to give the School-at-Large six points. f118l DEPARTMENTAL AND GENERAL CLUBS ld.

The speakers chose topics which would help the girls to understand different personalities and to recognize other races as equals. A beautiful ceremonial using the theme of "World Fellowship" was written and given by the Girl Reserves in recognition of new members. The Girl Reserves also presented two one-act plays, "So's Your Old Antique" and "The March Heirfl A piano, the gift of Mrs. Wheat, has enabled all meetings to be held in the printing room.

With the objective of creating Christian fellowship among the boys at East High. the Boys' High School Club was organized in 1927. The Monday evening programs, which are arranged by the cabinet with the assistance of the sponsor, Mr. O. Moore, are educational as well as entertaining. The meet- ings consist of singing, Scripture reading, addresses, sentence prayers, and sometimes a special entertainment number. The speakers talk on such topics as world affairs, race. sex, and physical development. The club has a membership of approximately seventy boys who wish to profit from the meetings physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually. f121l 119341 JEASTONIIAN ART CLUB Third Razr: Krebs, Miss Hiatt, Harrington, Stout, Gerhardt, Olson, Johnston, Miss Abbott, Haslar.

Appearing in disguise before an assemblage of heretical sages, Siva regained their worship by skinning with his little finger-nail a ferocious tiger which had been created from fire by the sages to destroy him: by throwing around his shoulders a hideous serpent: and by breaking the back of the malignant dwarf, Mala, with the tip of his foot. Siva is conventionally represented with four arms. In the upper right hand he holds an Indian drum, the symbol of vibrations or life. The lower right hand is raised in benediction. denoting protection and preservation. The upper left holds the flame of im- mortality, while the lower one points downward in condemnation. Only one other Siva is said to dance as gracefully as does the figure in Kansas City's Gallery. TEASTONTIAN 1934 MUSIC CONTEST The annual music contest was held on May 19. The boy soloists were: tenor, Albert Lucas, barytone, Donald Michael, bass, Robert jackson.

The girl soloists were: soprano, Margaret jenkins, mezzo-soprano, Naomi Dawson, and contralto, Mary Louise Rifile. The girls' trio was composed of Mary Louise Riflle, Irene Higgins, and Margaret jenkins. The girls' triple trio was made up of Laura jane Gordon, Margaret jenkins, Beatrice Peery, Evelyn Jamison, Angelina Marino, Irene Higgins, Glesna Lingle, Betty Mathis, and Mary Louise Riflle. POSTER CONTEST There were three poster contests this year. The Hrst of these, sponsored by the East Echo, was won by Algot johnson, the prize being a year's subscription to the Echo. Eunice Lefebvre won second place and a one-half year's subscription free. The annual Outburst Poster Contest was won by Karl Duderstadt, with a prize of 53. His poster was called "Worth Crowing About." The Parent-Teachers Association sponsored a poster contest for its play, "McGulTey Days." The winners were Algot' johnson, jimmy Walls, Barbara Allen, and Rowena Wheeler. DRAWING HONOR LIST As selected by Miss Abbott, the best artists for this year were: Barbara Allen, Windle Butler, Dorothy Craig, Karl Duderstadt, Norma Exter, Algot johnson, Maxine jones, Eunice Lefebvre, Vincent Manley, Elva jane Olson, and james Walls. DANCES AND MIXERS The Student Council sponsored many dances this year. There were a Halloween mixer and an elaborate St. Valentine's night mixer. There were dancing contests at these mixers. The Student Council also sponsored a new idea this year--they held regular mixers with dancing lessons as the feature. All dances were held in the cafeteria. T131T 11934 JEASTONIAN HTWELFTI-I NIGHT" Since the building of the auditorium and the installation of suitable stage equipment, plays more ambitious than those attempted in former years have been made possible. "The Mikadon and "Abraham Lincoln" last year set a high standard for future productions. This year the first full length mid-year play was offered. Saturday, February 3, saw the presentation of Shakespeare's most hilarious comedy, "Twelfth Night," under the direction of Miss Cecile Burton. This is one of Shake- speare's outstanding works and is a delightful way to meet the great dramatist for the first time. The smoothness with which the play went off was a perfect example of co-operation between the cast and the production staff. The youthful cast acted the parts with a finesse that belied the brief length of their dramatic training. The roles of Viola, Feste, Malvolio, Sir Toby, and all the others were made to seem real, in spite of the fact that the language of Shakespeare's day was different from our own. The rich costumes of velvet and satin, gaily bedecked with ribbons and laces, dazzled the eyes of the audience, and added much to the atmosphere created by the scenery. The boys with their orange and purple satin knee breeches and plumed hats were a novel sight. Although the members of the production staff were not conspicuous on the night of the performance, their work had much to do with the success of the play.

This play was a drama that had never before been attempted in any high school. The serious characters that peopled the play and the fine acting required were obstacles successfully overcome, however, and everyone marvelled at the skill with which the play was presented. The production set a precedent for the senior classes to follow. This year, the class presented Booth Tarkington's "Seventeen," that delightful story of youth, love, summer time, the Baby Talk Lady, the Baxter family-especially W'illiam -and Mr. Baxter's dress suit. "Seventeen" has become classic because of its true, humorous, but sympathetic representation of American youth. The many delightful and humorous characters pleased the large audience greatly. The baby talk of Lola Pratt and the saucy tattle-tale-ness of little jane were especially entertaining to the young and old alike. The settings were those of a typical modern middle-class home, and included a living room, a porch, and a garden scene, very pretty with its gay-colored balloons and green background. The production staff, the publicity department, the scenery and stage crews, the typists, the advertising staff, and the ushers all contributed to the whole, which is one of the essential things required in a successful production.

The Outburst, which the year before had been replaced by a comic opera, "The Mikado," took possession of the halls and auditorium, and with the aid of tissue paper, false faces, horns, and balloons, made a carnival scene of a sedate institution of learning. The main show was composed of three scenes built around the old nursery rhyme, "The Woman in the Shoe." The curtains parted to reveal the quartet, composed of Ted Fehrenbach, Clarence Lucas, Merrill Hartman and Oscar Robertson, who sang the theme song, "T he Woman in the Shoe." In the nrst scene, the Old Woman, played by Blodwen Parry, and her numerous children very ably kept the audience entertained. Others who contributed numbers to the first scene were: Velma Campbell, Betty Peckenpaugh, Gertie Ribakolf, Katherine Walton, Hartford Mathis, Karl Duderstadt, Barbara Redenbaugh, Lillian Sapp, David Morris, Wilburn Hatfield, Guy Allen, Fern Davisson, Glenna Brewer, james McCormick, Margaret jenkins, Irene Higgins, Mary Louise Riflle and Evelyn Poe. In the second act a transition took place. The Prince, played by Ted Fehrenbach, introduced the new members of the Old Woman's household. These were nursery rhyme characters played by the following: Warren Funston, Barbara Allen, Richard Darling, Ernest Schwertscharf, Billy Maniett, Deane Feldt, Marjorie Burch, Hazel Dawson. A chorus consisting of Louise Abramowitz, Ruth Bruce, Pearl Hendricks, Mildred Ramsey, Lenis Blum, Helen Fansler, Helen King, Thelma Rittenhour and Pauline Rodak pre- sented a Blackbird Dance. In the last act, the Prince revealed to the audience the new house of the Old Woman. It was a dainty pink slipper with a slender, glittering heel. Through the arch of the shoe, the Old Woman fwho wasn't so old after allj emerged, dressed in a pretty blue frock, with the Prince to help her down the steps. He had arranged a lavish program to help her forget her former hardships. To start the party right the Glee Club sang "Golden Slippers." Albert Lucas, Golden Vehlewald, Opal Harmon, Pauline Lamanno, Ina Virginia Proctor, Cleo Currier, Paul Davis, Max Fisher and Paul Wilson sang other songs. Dances of all sorts were supplied by Hazel Dawson, Helen Goldsborough, Imogene Gulick, Marie Hampton, Constance jones, Rosemary Meeink, Hazel Green, Naomi Dawson, Dorothy Brewer, Alma Hoops, Mildred Kincheloe, Helen Rust, Margaret Hathhorn, Maxine Jones, Mildred Kraft, Ella Silvey and Vincent Manley. The last number on the program was a trombone solo, "Blue Prelude," by Joe Roggy, Sideshows continued throughout the evening and added to the hilarity of the already gay performance. fififil IIQASTONIIAN 11934 PJ'U1'jll1!f ffm! if ffflwf f7fL'11f-T of l2lIl.YfL' lo 1116111111n1'f1lm.fv 11 1z'rn'11-0111 lfrogfnl 21110 11 .fbizzilzg .Yljf7!7l'l' 1 1:17 1 x, .

The Hrst big event of the organization's calendar was the "Harvest Moon," an evening of enjoyable entertainment consisting of a fashion parade-old and new costumes-blackouts, and skits. It was given on September 28. On March 2, a humorous play, "McGufr'ey Days," was given. This was a comedy of the school-house days of our mothers and fathers. The teachers and parents in little boy and girl costumes lost their accustomed dignity, and provided a program crammed with laughs. In addition to their general activities, the association sponsored a series of parent education classes and assisted the women of the faculty with a bridge party April 28 at the Hotel Bellerive. This party was for the benefit of the Gold Star Scholarship Fund. A series of lectures on the "Adolescent Childu was given by Miss julia Mae Warci in the parent education classes. The officers for this year were: Mrs. M. B. Hansell, President, Mrs. E, H. Moberly, Vice-President, Mrs. R. H. Candler, Vice-President, Mrs. George M. Gowdy, Secretary, Mrs. Irvin Trowbridge, Treasurer, Mrs. R. Harrison, Historian, and Mr. C. H. Nowlin, Parliamentarian. MOTHERS' "E" CLUB In the Mothers' Club, East has an organization that no other high school in Kansas City possesses. Its purpose is to organize a group of East High mothers who will. actively support the students of the school in the various competitive events. At the games, there is a reserved section for the club, which endeavors to boost the team to victory. At the end of each season, the club sponsors a large banquet in honor of the boys. The officers for this year were: Mrs. I. D. Pierce, President, Mrs. Glenn Butler, Vice-President, Mrs. Frank Alexander, Secretary, Mrs. Thomas Maloney, Treasurer. OFFICERS, MOTHERS' CLUB This club sponsors many activities during the year for the purpose of keeping alive cadet enthusiasm in R. O. T. C., and to provide a means of entertainment for the boys. This year the club held a card party, gave its annual picnic on May 20, and in December gave a dance at Carey's Hall. At this time the cadet officers for the year were announced. The officers for this year were: Mrs. V. G. Fisher, President, Mrs. O. G. Smith, Vice-President, Mrs. G. C.

To Mr. Wahlstedt, we present our own unique powers in blufling, and as the past Senior classes have done, we, too, are passing on to his keeping our treasured paddles. To the faculty, we leave a huge thirty-nine cent bottle of our best nerve cure remedy. To the class of 1935, we leave our unsurpassed dignity and hope that it may be as handy for them as it was for us. To the Sophomores, we leave slightly tarnished wings and harps as a reward for their innocent existence during the past two years. To the Freshmen, we bequeath our four-year elevator passes, counterfeit admit pads and rubber chewing gum. To the literary clubs, we present our ability to speak and write and also to solve all questions, problems, and disputes. To the departmental clubs we present our butterfly nets, test tubes, language themes, typewriters, and crayolas and hope that our magic powers, ground within them, may seep through and aid said clubs in conquering obstacles. To the general clubs, our thanks for an inspirational high school career, and hope they may continue their good works. To the custodians, our permission to sweep all exam questions from teachers' desks, also the right to burn any text book seen about. In witness whereof, we, the graduating class of 1934, set our feet and hands this seventh day of june, 1934. fSignf-:dj THE SENIOR CLASS Witnessed by: TED DETTWEILER '55 KENNETH HEADY '36 TED WEIS '37 l141I 1934 IEASTONJIAN Give uf Em! High rloytlom and Uwiciouf' women 51423 IEASTONIIAN 1934 SENIQR PROP!-IECY I entered the gates of the Century of Progress of 1954 with a happy feeling of expectancy in my bones. On the airplane, I had been thinking of my high school days. just twenty years ago last month, I had graduated from dear old East High School. Heavens, how old-fashioned we were in those days! While I was reminiscing, whom should I collide with but a great big Canadian Mounted Policeman! I was just about ready to get angry and to tell him what I thought of him, when I recognized him as john Kilohl I was even more surprised when he told me that others of the class of '54 were engaged as police. Among these were: Anthony Betzler, Edward Schell, XXfillis Smith, Paul Browning, Leslie Fain, Charles Harrington, Clifford Hill, Victor Ireland, Oliver King, Billy Minor, Clifford Mathis, George Molln, and jack Pew. It seems that all of them went to Canada soon after school was over in search of better liquor and eventually joined the mounted. After we had talked about old times for a while, I left john to his work and boarded a Greyhound sightseeing bus. Only one seat remained and there I dropped. I looked to my right and then to my left, then my gaze stoppedffor the sightseeing director was none other than Walter Robbins. I assure you I did not see many of the sights for I was too busy looking at him to see how I he had changed. Walter told me that Romagene Schuble had also become a director for the same company. About this time I had begun to get rather hungry, so I approached one of the many stands which sold hot dogs, hamburgers, etc. Lady Luck was truly with me that day for whom should I see Hdishing out" the hamburgers but Vincent Hale. Mrs. Hale, we Dorothy Bright, was helping him, and after talking to her for about fifteen minutes, I learned that Roy Stout, Charles Doughty, jennie Bootka, and Anna Davidson were in the same business down the line. However, it was getting late so I thought I ought to be moving on. As my feet felt like two lead lumps, I decided to take one of those funny little 'rickshaws drawn by handsome young men. Perhaps it was because I looked ready to drop that a fine, good-looking young man came over to me in ,isa- a 'rickshaw. I gladly got in. As we rode along, he pointed out to me the sights. Where had I heard his voice before? Then 3 I remembered! It was back in East High. He had been a great -'-X I ! athlete. It was none other than Roy jury. He did not continue telling me about the sights after that, for we talked over old l times. He and junior Pierce had come to the fair after retiring 5 from teaching mathematics in some eastern college and got a job as 'rickshaw pullers. "Barney" O'Neal was also doing this. " We approached the midway, and as I felt rested, I dismissed Roy. The midway was like a circus with all its sideshows calling for the observer to 51431 119341 IEASTONJIAN A 1'0Zl?Z6Z1-!lbOZlf way of myifzg, "H0u'ciy,' 1' 1 un 1 IEASTONIIAN 19341 come in. Suddenly, a voice boomed out above all the rest. I turned quickly and stopped. There, attired in a checkered suit and bellowing through a huge megaphone, was Leon Henthorn, yelling with all his might for people to g - come in and see the "snakes, ten feet long." Earnest Schwarts- charf Qwith a really ridiculous accentj, was in partnership with fix him. I had a good laugh, for who would have thought them to " T'S,! be so interested in animals! -IN 1 , I went on through the midway, looking at the many sights. -kits? In the reading room of the Illinois State building, I glanced flip!! through a book priced at twenty-five cents, "Etiquette and Its Y . iq Value to the High School Studentf written by Glenn Wolff. ' E 15.1 I then decided to get in one of those funny little gondolas and ride around the lake. I chose to ride in a red one. After- wards I was glad 1 had, for the "Venetian" gondolier turned out to be Eugene Moore. As the boat slipped through the water, he sang Italian love songs in a Spanish accent. He told me that several of the other boys of the class of '54 were either running speed boats or gondolas. Among these were Ray Hester, Lloyd Santhoff, Paul Rumpf, Williani Blau, julius Clarkson, Albert Farmer, Gene Huff, Glennon Johnston, Kenneth Millard, and Robert jackson. I had read previously in the paper that the Queen of the exhibition was to be chosen, and I wasn't at all surprised to learn that Lucille Cahill had been elected. Among the girls selected as her aides were Christina Hentschel and Pauline McHone. I had seen a great many attractive looking girls in becoming uniforms and I learned they were Fair hostesses. I looked at a posted list of these and saw that Charlotte Swift, Marian Norquist, Grace Burk, Dorothy Alexander, Crystal Barr, Leota Bolar, Dorothy Crooks, Margaret Hathhorn, Lois Hampton, Louise Mongold, Dorothy Simons, Margaret Tucker, 5 and .Iosephine Wfheat were among the list. ,S f' ln my book of events for the day, I saw that there was to be - a swimming exhibition. Eagerly, I went to the indoor pool. Sur- - , prise, surprise, surpriselffthere was Jeannette Caskey perched on the highest diving board ready to do a swan dive. Other per- - formers were Engene Potts. Mary Helen Pemberton, and joe in' Roggy. They had become renowned through their abilities as H swimmers. After I left the natatorium, I decided to take a little walk along the harbor. I had noticed a large yacht earlier in the day, so I inquired of one of the Canadian Mounted whose it was. "Wl1y, Madame, that is Ridenour Parrent's yacht," he said. "Not the famous Ridenour Parrent?,' A 'lYes," said he. He won the yacht and the rest of his vast fortune by being voted the man with the world's best drawlf' I1-ISI 1934 EASTONIAN The Jlmdow--knows nothingg tally all I146l IEASTONIIAN 11934 I then decided to look at the automobile displays. In a huge plant, with modernistic touches, a group of men were assembling a car under the direction of Paul Busch and Robert Grabb. Among those assembling the cars were: Dennis Cubine, Allen Sokoloff, Virgil Coffman, john Yates, Marvin Wright, Wayne Helton, john Alexopoulos, Charles Carlson, james Cox, Harold Delong, Floyd Drake, William Early, William Gordon, Buford Mook, Archie Neas, Elmer Neilson, Alvin Peele, Cecil Tipton, john Smith, Vogel Waddell, Lawrence Smith, Leland Webster, Arthur Tyler, and john Herren. just at that time, whom should I run into but Marie jenkins. I learned she had become a successful and enterprising business woman. She owned a chain of grocery stores which spread throughout the whole United States. r The Hall of Science was just a short distance from this build- - ing, so I thought I would walk over. As I was walking along, I Q glanced by my side and there was Noreen Darr, an old school ' chum of mine, walking along with Kenneth Gilpin. She ap- O peared to be still taking first place in extemporaneous speaking, 5 interrupted now and then by a sarcastic remark from Kenneth. I Q W stopped and talked to them. They said that they were co-editors Q A of the Daily Spasm, a paper in Whooziz, Idaho. After talking to lx-gb I them for some time, I proceeded to the Hall of Science.

After leaving school, he had studied medicine and had become a "quack" doctor. The nurses helping him with his demonstration were Sylvia Cohen and Dorothy Davis. I visited the Art Museum next. It was a magnificent structure, and the most famous paintings in all the world were there. Among the portraits, I saw some painted by Russell Gerhardt, Vincent Manley, Katherine O'Hara, Algot johnson, Maxine jones, Mildred Kincheloe, Frank Westbrook, Barbara Weibel, and Karl Duderstadt. The merit of these paintings lay in the fact that they might be hung with any of their four sides at the top, with equal profit to the beholder. I had heard so much about the Temple of Buddha that I wanted to visit it very much. As it wasn't very far, I walked leisurely through the grounds and went in. I was admiring the great statue of Buddha, when suddenly someone touched me on my shoulder. I glanced about hastily and saw that it was none other than Robert Lovelace. When he talked, I noticed that he had an English accent so I asked if he had been in England. "Why how did you guess? Yes, after leaving deah old East High, I went to England to publish my first book and have been there most of the time since." We must have talked for an hour there, for soon the keeper said, "All out, all out." After bidding Robert good-bye and wishing him the best of luck, I saw a crowd gathering in the open theater in front of the Hall of Science. I consulted my program and learned that the exposition was to be lighted by a beam from the star Arcturus. This required skill on the part of the mechanics and electricians. Maurice Hansell and john Ireland were the skilled operators that transmitted the ray to the exposition.

I turned around and there was a handsome gentleman I thought I had never seen before. He said, "Pardon me, but didn't you go to East High School? My name is Vernie Fisher." Whyf, I didn't recognize you, Vernie! You've changed so!" But he was as good- looking as ever, even with the little moustache. We talked about the exposition and our school days. He had worked in a depart- ment store after leaving school and was now the manager with a good salary.

Erferywhere, load and weak. Some are mmmofzg .rome are queer. Everywhere they mee! the ear. Squeaks are peculiar sounds, and yet they are surely common enough. Squeaks squeak in varied sounds just as the tones of the human voice are varied. Sometimes a squeak is sharp, shrill, and loud, as that of chalk upon the black board, or it may be sharp, shrill, short and weak, such as the squeak of a mouse. I have even heard of stammering, contralto squeaks, such as might issue from a heavy hall door. Then, too, there is a baritone squeak, as the squeak of chairs being scooted upon the library floor. Of course, these are not the only tones of squeaks, for it might be said that one squeak is as different from another squeak as is the tone of one human voice from another. Probably one of the most genuine squeaks is gone forever from the school room. This is the sound of the slate pencil upon the slate. When our parents attended school they prepared most of their school work upon a slate, and they possessed a slate pencil, with which they wrote. As my parents told me, to get a new slate pencil was a real delight, especially one with a red band around the top of it. Often there was a streak of slate running through the pencil which would produce a most hideous squeak by marking with that particular part upon the slate. But, perhaps, our teachers would disagree that such a squeak has been lost forever, since the squeak of chalk upon the blackboard has surely replaced that of the former slate pencil. There are many other squeaks with which the more mischievous can draw attention or interrupt a serious discussion. Rubber taps on shoe heels and on the bottom of the legs of chairs, deliber- ately rubbed or dragged across a floor, such as in the library, produce a squeaky sound. These, however, are but a few of the innumerable squeaks of a school room. What is it about a new pair of shoes which overflows the childish heart with joy? Surely it is not the luster and the sparkle of new shoes, but rather the squeak which they enjoy. Probably we all can remember a particular pair of shoes of our childhood days, which we considered our favorite shoes, not only because of their pretty style but mainly because of their squeak. No doubt the Scotchman's pocketbook squeaks when he buys shoes, and the shoe salesman would surely not make a sale if he handled no shoes with which the squeak might be purchased. However, there have been instances in which squeaky shoes were a great disadvantage. The visit to the cookie jar might easily be detected by mother in the next room, through the squeak of a tip-toed foot. ln such a case, a squeak would "squeak" upon you. Often our voices are sources of amusement. Occasionally some peculiar, squeaky sound escapes from one's throat for which there has been no motive. Along with the human voice might be considered a few of the musical instruments which squeak in tuning, such as the violin, whose squeaks always introduce the orchestra. l157j 11934 EASTONIIAN ALADDIN THEATER Phone BEnton 9638 15th and Belmont Free Parking Station Hoping You Graduates May Meet Only Dame Fortune and Never H'er Daughter, Miss Fortune!

No doubt most of us in our childhood days have read, from the primary reader, about Squeaky, the mouse, and the scare-box, which was a jumping Jack. Do you remember what queer, squeaky little sounds Squeaky emitted, half sobs and half laughs, yet no doubt they were all squeaks, as he told father and mother mouse of his adventure. And, too, I am sure that you have read or heard of the Pied Piper, who by his magic pipe brought the mice tumbling and rumbling and squeaking and running out of the houses to their death. Also, there is that famous tale of Hatto, at Bingen on the Rhine, in which the selfish lord, who refused to divide his grain among the starving peasants, was overtaken by a horde of mice, which squeakingly and savagely devoured this selfish lord, who tried to escape the mice by crossing the Rhine and climbing to the top of the highest tower. A haunted house's mysterious sounds might easily be discovered by investigation of the squeaks which emanate from it. I have found this to be true from experience. A friend and I once visited a dilapidated old structure, which was supposedly haunted. Thinking that it would be more exciting to explore such a place about dusk, we entered the old frame house at that time. However, it was not so exciting, when my friend's foot became fastened between two boards in the floor, the center one of which had broken in. After much struggling, it was evident that help would be necessary to free her foot. Leaving her there alone, I returned home to get assistance. In the mean- time, my friend became terrihed by the supposed thud of footsteps and squeaky shoes, the squeak and flapping of a shutter, the creaking of loose floor boards as mice tripped across them and even the squeaking mice themselves. When she tried to sing to console herself, the wind returned her tone in a squeaky, cheerless echo. Next morning, when we returned to investigate some of the mysterious things which she had heard, we found that the haunted house was composed principally of squeaks. In "The Circular Staircase" by Mary Roberts Rinehart, there is a vivid description of the squeaking of the stairway as the burglar crept toward his crime. Also, do you remember the descriptions of the squeaky, old antique furniture and the creaking gables by Nathaniel Hawthorne in his book, "The I-louse of Seven Gablesn? Intruders are discovered and mysteries uncovered through mere squeaks. To contrast with mysterious and annoying squeaks, there are lulling squeaks. Often a mother rocks her baby in an old family rocking chair, which, as she rocks it to and fro, squeaks a lullaby, as carressingly as any mother ever sang, with which the baby becomes enraptured. No doubt all of us have seen our grandfathers and grand- mothers, toward bedtime, relax in some easy rocking chair and soon be snoring to its rhythm and squeak. Perhaps, it is the monotonous rhythmic sound that conquers the infant and aged mind so easily. And so there are squeaks and squeaks. It would be impossible to mention them all or impossible to avoid them all. And do we want to avoid them? Do we want to destroy them? Let us not be too severe on our squeaks or seek to eliminate 'them wholly. Think how strange, how monotonous, how depressing, life would be in a still and "squeakless" world!

H1601 IEASTONIAN 1934 A MATTER OF THREE WEEKS By EVELYN MILHOLLAND fFirJt plate in Literzzry CUNIEJIQ It was five o'clock on a gray March morning in 1865, and the Southern guards were rhythmically pacing the prison corral. Since there were no beds in this prison, the hungry-looking men, young and old, in tattered clothing, huddled on the ground in sleep. One of the guards paused by two middle-aged men, gave each a hard kick, and shouted, "Five o'clock. Get up, you lazy bums." The two men sat up, startled, and quickly looked around. Then, seeing the guard standing above them, they hastily scrambled to their feet. "Sure, and what may be your idea of a wakin' us so early this mornin'?" asked the larger of the two men. His name was Patrick O'Roark, and he was as Irish as his name. His round, red face was puckered into a fierce frown. "You and this little guy here are going to the forest to chop some wood." The smaller man, Ezra Daniels, looked at the guard and said, "But-4I'm so weak now I can hardly stand. Why should I have to go?" "It's enough that the Captain said you were to go. Now, come on." With that, the guard pushed Pat forward, and taking Ezra by the arm, started for the gate. "But-don't we eat brea-," began Pat. "No, you don't eat breakfast flair morning." Outside the corral, there were four wagons. Two men and a guard were to ride on each. The Captain was standing near with some prison inspectors sent from Richmond by President Davis. just then a train of wagons passed, carrying dead bodies. "I see that quite a few prisoners are leaving today," said one of the inspectors. "Rather a sad way to leave, though." 'lThat's the way they are all going out, sir, feet first," replied the Captain. He added in an undertone, "We are starving them." Pat looked at Ezra and whispered, "Did you hear that, Ezra?" "Yes, I did, Pat, and the way I feel now, I'm sure I'll be on the next load." "Oh, no you won't," said Pat. "I've got an idea. Yes, I know, you're a thinkin' it's seldom I have one, and them I do have ain't sensible, but this one is so easy it couldn't fail."

Pat's ideas, when he had them, were prompted by miraculous escapes he had read of before the war, or had heard of while in the Northern army. "Well, when we get out to them woodsA." but Pat's hoarse whispers were inter- rupted by the prodding of the guard's gun. "Climb up on that wagon, you two, and don't talk, if you know what's good for you." The men got in, and the guard sat behind them. The driver lashed the horses with his whip, and the horses jumped forward, throwing Pat and Ezra against the guard. It was a long ride to the woods, so Pat had an opportunity to tell Ezra his great idea. After they had gone perhaps a mile, Pat punched Ezra with his elbow. 1 . Wfhat is it, Pat?" whispered Ezra. "When we get to the woods, I'll get out this side of the wagon, and you get out the other." "Hey,,' roared the guard, "stop that talking." "Yes, sir." They drove another mile in silence, then Pat continued, "l'll start a light. The guards will all run to stop it, and you escape through the woods.

You'll be sure to get home safe." "But they'll catch me, Pat. Besides, you should be the one to escape, you have a family to consider. If you start that fight, they will know you did it to help me. Then you will be shot. Let me start a fight, Pat, and you escape." 'iI'll be doin' nothin' of the kind. Youive been here longer then me, and youire so thin and trembly you couldn't live here another week. I'll find mesilf a way of escapin' later." "But, Pat-l" "Now don't you be so foolish, Ezra. You've got ten chances to escape to them guys one of findin' you in these woods. I wonit even try to escape if you start a fight, so there ain't no use of your arguin' with me." "All right, Pat. If I get home, and you don't, I'll take care of your family as best I can. You're the-" A poke in the back silenced them for the rest of the journey. When they reached the forest, the guard climbed down and Pat jumped off his side of the wagon. One of the prisoners from another wagon came near them, and Pat stepped over to him, GOWDY PLUMBING CO. 2330 Poplar WE ARE EQUIPPED TO DO ANY REPAIR WORK ON SHORT NOTICE Call Bus.

"Hey you-hey, stop that fighting," shouted the Captain. He, the guards, and the prisoners all ran toward Pat and his victim. After the flght was stopped, the possibility of an escape entered the minds of the guards and the Captain. "Each man check his prisoners," called the Captain. The guard in charge of Ezra and Pat, looked for Ezra, but he was gone. "That little guy who came in the wagon with me has escaped," he informed his superior oflicer. , "Why you'-," said the Captain. "Why weren't you-why didn't you watch him?" "I was helping stop that fight, sir," replied the guard. "I'll see that headquarters knows of your carelessness." The guard started to protest but thought better of it. After the Captain appointed a guard for the prisoners, he and the other guards set oil' to scour the woods. Meanwhile, Ezra, stumbling, sometimes falling, ran through the woods looking for a place to hide. He finally climbed a tree for security. A few minutes later the guards passed beneath the tree in which he was hiding, but they did not discover him. When night came, he started on his journey through the Rebel lines, from Anderson- ville, Georgia, to Carrollton, Ohio. He traveled by night and hid by day. What little food he ate was foraged. This method of securing food was anything but successful. In fact, the small amount he could manage to steal during a day would not make one good meal. His livelihood was so inadequate that he 'became a mere shadow of his former self. One evening, while still within the Rebel lines, he came to a farmhouse. Seeing some freshly baked bread cooling on the porch, he sneaked up to get some. The farmer was in a nearby field and saw him. He shouted to his wife, but Ezra snatched one of the hot loaves and fled. So, hiding by day and traveling by night, he made his way home. He became so weak he could hardly walk, and over two months after he had escaped from prison, he staggered to the door of his home. As he stood there, it seemed that his relief and joy in getting home made him faint. He leaned against the door for a minute, then went in. "Ezra!" "Pat! How did you get here?"

Two months ago, two weeks back, we were frantically looking to that time when the last sentence would be typed and the last copy-sheet sent to the printers. The time has come at last when we may once more become normal students, going home after only six hours of workg but we only sink back to remember the busy, but always agreeable days of our frenzied work. To the various divisions of the staff, we wish to express our appreciation of their work: to Miss Abbott and her hard-working artistsg to Miss Baker and the staff that worried about the moneyg to Mr. Grube for his help with the photography, to Mr. Parks and the boys who secured the advertisements, thereby helping to pay for the annual, to the advertisers themselves for helping us to make the EASTONIAN possible. To Mr. Lawrence Smith of Smith-Grieves Printing Company, and to Mr. Cooksey of Teachnor-Bartberger we extend thanks for their valuable aid. To thank Miss Varney properly is impossible. She has been an adviser, yes, an excellent one. But her obvious duties pale, not into nothingness, but nevertheless into a state of less importance, beside her greater worth as a friend. She has always worked and worriedgand laughed along with the rest of us. F 5"'E+ Q-ff -.Q T , 1 .num IEIE maxi
