For twenty-eight years East High students and faculty have been guided by a man who believed in his students and taught them to be square shooters. Today East High School stands as a memorial to his achievements. Although a very busy man, he was never too hurried to help a student solve a problem, to Welcome back an alumnus, or to call out a jovial greeting to those who came into the office. This year for the twenty-eighth time, he will inspire a graduating class to make the World a better place. The good he has accomplished through his students can never be reckoned, but his record is far above that hoped for by most men. In recognition of his inspiring leadership, his success as a principal and as a personal friend of his students, his cheerful participation in all school affairs, and his tireless attempts to better East High, and With the deepest gratitude that We have had the privilege of knowing him and studying under his supervision, We dedicate this 1941 Trojan ' to Principal Fred I. Miller. His ideals and aspira- tions for East High Will live forever in the hearts of those who have known him.

After signaling the opening of sixty-six successful per- formances, the curtain again rises on Act I of a new version of the drama of TROIAN YGUTH. Although de- layed three weeks by a city-wide epidemic of polio- myelitis, a large cast of eight hundred and ninety-six reported on September 23, to play their roles before the footlights. The sophomores, as understudies, began their training: the juniors, familiar with their stage, aspired to add more meaning to their lines, while the seniors, as experienced actors, hoped to star in the final stands of their high school career. On the set they found the producer and a group of capable directors ready to guide their talent. Supporting the drama by their foresight and financial backing were the Board of Education who provide the essential equip- ment for a stellar production. So it's places, everybody, house lights, curtain for Act I of TROIAN YOUTH, 1941. .
