Although Wfil- liam Chambers, that trail blazer, moved on again at the close of the summer, he remains in history as the first while settler of this locale. As he stood there squinting into the red, prairie sun, do you suppose he ever realized his cabin would give rise to W'aterl0o, a thriving, indus- trial city of 60,000, even now under w 4 vonsillvrulion as a foral point on a lrunscrmtilwnlnl air route nf mmm'- rmr?

They tell us once we step into the world our colors will not be so gay, our enthusiasm so buoyant, our aims so wide and high. But we will dare contradict them with our actions then as we do with our words now. W'e will take to our land ahead the combined training of our entire school life along with the personalities we have modeled. As we have worked here together, we have learned to recognize the wealth that may be gained from mere asso- ciation with those about us. Now we have a scale of evaluation so that whether those in the future are friends, acquaintances, or even strangers, we will recognize them as stimulating companions on the trails ahead. :gg-Jac1TEaf:7 - 4. . ook to the Future With a tense air of the excitement of hegin- ning the trail. which predominates in l0B homerooms, George Leelrl and Hugh Logan have charge of two groups of live-wires.

Her group is duly rep- resented in sports as well as in scholastic activities. lVliss Strope's homeroom has followed the general trend of homeroom periods, which are Considered all too short, for the allotted I5 minutes rapidly diminishes when students are engrossed in a lively discussion of school affairs. The homeroom officers elected hy student vote are: student council representative, Lu.-hm Leland and alternate, Brainerd Hor- nerg stamp representative, Marilyn Hertlein. Following a routine of discussing world events and attempting to solve school proll- lems, Miss Viola Knoche's homeroom has gained a wider understanding of world and school situations. This room is very handy when bothered hy a prohlem of modern or past histo1'y for it takes the students hut a moment to refer to Muzzey or some of the innumerable history hooks in proving their point. Her homeroom leaders are as follows: student council representative, Ralph And- erson and alternate, Everett Bailey, stamp committee, Sanomia Berdell, Eugene Bennett, and Richard Amfahrg president, Mareella Bandfield. The students have varied interests, parti- cipating in 111any of East Higlfs extra cur- ricular activities. FIRST ROW: ll. Lessine. B. Horner. L. Leland. YV. Klein. ' SECUNIP RUHV: D. Karns. K.

The students decide upon the type of discussions they prefer and then elect a leader to prepare and preside at the discus- sion. Their discussions follow the general trend of school affairs and problems with a mingling of foreign affairs. The homeroom officers are as follows: student council rep- resentative. Elmer Hen1sath and alternate, Donna Fosseg president, Elmer Hemsath. Stressing in daily discussions good citizen- ship and loyalty, Mrs. Arletta KolJer's home- room students have gained the knowledge of what constitutes heing loyal Americans, an understanding they will not soon forget. Once a week they have a class discussion on sports, usually centering around the latest games or meets. They have developed a somewhat loosely organized choir during homeroom period, but have not yet considered prospects of presenting their routine to the student body as a whole. The homeroom offcers are: student council representative, Harriet Rogers and alternate, Don Potterg stamp representatives, Margaret Reinville and Virginia Zbornik. Page 21 FIRST ROW: B. Ogden, C.

Discussions hased on school activities hrought up hy the student council and elahoration of ideas and suggestions on world affairs usually make this short period vanish rapidly. Mr. Starr. who himself has carefully studied history and government, is ahle to H11 in rarely lacking discussions with his infor- mation and oftentimes suhtle humor. The homeroom officers are: student coun- cil representative, Charles Metcalf and alter- nate, Earl Mussettg stamp representatives, Art Hussman and Mary Pitzenherger. Building citizens of tomorrow has hecn the chief aim of Miss Edna Mae Rittenhouse's homeroom this year. This aim has heen partly achieved hy teaching the principles and ideals of the American way of life through discus- sion of school and world prohlems. Several students have heen active in hand and student government. ln an attempt to create a solid foundation of government in their own homeroom, they have chosen the following homeroom officers: student council representative, Jerry Doran and alternate, Wallace Farnhamg stamp representatives, Ellen Douglas and Loren Elness. epare or reater Trails Showing an interest in school and world problems, Miss Margaret Barnes' 12B home- room students have made a careful study of many of the difficulties of our present society. Her homeroom is frequently interrupted by the questions of student council representa- tives. Checking with them is a job capahly taken care of by Velda Schmidt, thus reliev- ing Miss Barnes so she may devote her time to her homeroom activities, which usually takes the majority of the fifteen minute period. Miss Barnes' homeroom officers are as follows: student council representative. Kenneth Rogers and alternate, Lois Gouter- montg stamp representative and chairman of FIRST ROW: E. Chapman, C.

Miss Florence Blacks homeroom has a complex but highly representative form of homeroom government. ln an attempt to dis- tribute leadership to all of the students, she has divided the homeroom into six bodies. each one of which governs the room for a period of thrce weeks. Her students are intel'- ested in many extra curricular activities and show a sincere desire to encourage under- classmen to enter scholastic and sports activ- ities. Her enthusiastic homeroom leaders are: student council representative, Andrew Tide- mann and alternate, Melvin Potter: stamp representative, Dorothy Kudelka.

A majority of these fundamentals are aehievefl largely through elassroom activity. We learn to weigh evi- deuee earefully, to eonsifler thoughtfully any issue at hand, determining what is most important. Long ago we heeame aware that erarnming faets is not the essential goal of education, but rather the develop- ment of a critical faculty and a broad haekgrouml. Gratefully we recognize the added assurance our classes have given us to cope with whatever situations eonfront us on the unblazed trails that lie ahead. om DAY' f f ' 1 TOP LEFT: Miss lieola Strope's Bible class. - TOP RIGHT: Miss Marjorie Laubsvheris world history class studies the past to interpret the present and prepare for the future. - BOT- TOM LEFT: By discussion and reading of books and magazines the students apply their knowledge of world history to present conditions. ' BOTTOM RIGHT: A United States history class studying our nation's heritage. ur Heritage in Perspective World problems served as the important link between the past and the future for history students at East this past year. wlorld history, taught by Miss Marjorie Laubscher and Miss Elva Tucker, is a study of the various countries of the world and their progress. Panel discussions have been an out- standing feature of these classes. In these discussions the pupils take some current prob- lem, discuss it from various view points, and give their opinions as to what should be done about it. American history, taught by Miss Viola Knoche, Miss Leola Strope, Leonard Raffens- perger, Mark Flanders, and Charles L. Hoff- man, is the history course for pupils in their junior year. It deals with the history of the United States, its government, and its progress in democracy through the years. It helps the student to understand better his own country and its ideals. This year for the first time at mid- year class in American history I was created under the instructorship of Principal Hoffman. Both history courses give the students a background upon which to base their thoughts and opinions of today's world problems. Another branch of the social studies pro- gram at East High is American trends, which is divided into three units: sociology, govern- ment, and economics. One of these units is taken up each six weeks with a rotation of teachers for the unit. potli hting Democrac ln the sociology class, taught hy Miss Viola Knoche, the prohlem of a pupil's relationship to society is considered. The social problems of today such as crime and racial prohlems are thc main topics of discussion. The economics class, taught hy Leonard Raffcnsperger, is a practical course consisting of various questions facing the average con- sumer of today such as the monetary system, organization of industry, and hanking. The last unit of this course is American government, taught hy Miss Lillian Enlow. lt covers the study of various governments. state, local, and national. and helps the pupil to understand just how his country is gov- ernerl. A final phase of the social studies course is the Bilrle class, of which Miss Leola Stropc is teacher. This class, as the natnc implies. is a study of the hooks of the Bihle in con- secutive order. It aims to give the student a general historical lnackgrouncl which hclps him face the prohlems of today with intel- ligence.

'iw-ue ' , For a hoy not particularly interested in academic courses, Vocational printing is offered. These printing classes teach the theoretical and practical phases of print- ing. Une year here in East High's course is equal to a two year apprenticeship in any commercial print shop. The print shop takes care of practically all printing done for the puhlic schools. These shop hoys print record cards, all programs and tickets for entertainments, the Wootlen Horse, the East .lunior High Annual, the L'.lunior High Times, and the Sloane Wallace Spy Glass, according to Fred Latta, supervisor. Drafting is a subject which has a hright future hc-cause it is vital during peace as well as war. Drafting is a skilled art found in all branches of industry. Among other techniques the hoys in drafting are taught to make and read hlueprints. Instructor in drafting is Russell Starr. Vocational metals is a course offered to any hoy who has taken metals l and ll. lu this shop students are taught how to operate machines for machine shop work. After a year here in East the hoys may he placed on machines at local shops. Milton Kc-mmerer is the metal shop teacher. To help train future huilders East High has its woodshop under the supervision of Hugh liogan. Here artisans master the skills of construction. This year they have huilt large wall cases and tahles for grade schools and cases for the English Confer- ence room here at East in their general cahinet making projects. lllllrfl Til tsmen TOP LEFT: Printers setting up type.

RIGHT: Mrs. Kober's merchandising class experiments with sales- manship techniques. repare or ew Roads The commercial courses this year have con- centrated on practical work experience. Throughout their classes the students were taught the things that would help them on the jobs they were to hold. Less emphasis was laid on the producing of work for the sole purpose of a grade. while more stress was placed on turning out good work as ex- perience for the future. Many students worked either part-time or under the co-op plan. This was the first year that East High was under the federal set-up whereby students received one credit for the merchandising or office practice class and one credit for Working. These co-ops were graded on the basis of B-C by their employers. As no beginner could have the experience or ability to merit one, no A's were given. The heads of the commercial department, who have work cards for each student in school, have charge of placing the students in worthwhile positions and of carrying on the follow-up work. For the sales and office co-ops the require- ments were nmch the same. They had to be seniors with the ability to get along with peo- ple. Some had to do brush-up studying on cer- tain phases of their work to keep their school work and their jobs up to a high standard. They had to l'CIllellllJ6l.' that their conduct on the job was not only a reflection on their char- acter but also on the standing of East High. n Field of Commerce There was such a shortage of help in the husiness firms that places which formerly hired only high school or business college graduates offered these co-ops positions in their offices and stores. The sales co-op course was another new trail lilazed at liast this year. It offered the students interested in selling the chance to learn the rudiments in the merchandising class and to gain practical experience on a joll. To assist these regular sales students in the stores, a special eight-hour sales course was given. Students taking this course worked during the Christmas rush and were also available for the Easter season. Besides the regular co-ops, many other stu- dents were enrolled in commercial classes. Some wanted additional class work the iirsl semester and then worked on a jolt the second semester. Others were college preparatory slu- dents. or those going into another iield of work. hut wanting some commercial hackground. The shorthand. hookkeeping. commercial law. and ollice machines received stress as preparatory classes for office practice and as essential haekground for permanent jolrs alter graduation. Commerce has not only hlazed many new trails this year, lmt has also broadened the old paths into well-established highways. 1 UPPER LEFT: Fixture lawyers and pulrlic officials learn the principles of legal juris- diction in the commercial law class.

Preparation of meals and clothing con- struction formed the units around which the courses wcrc centered. Among today's prob- lems encountered were those of conservation and carc of clothing, food, and household equipment, in addition to point rationing and ceiling prices. Grooming, proper dress. food., health, and social acccptability were topics of study. lVIanagement of both a home and an apart- ment, in addition to money management and child care, were taken up in the classes. As an added feature a course in homo nursing, under the direction of Mrs. Juanita Lininger, was offered the girls as part of their course in home economics. Vifeaving, knitting, crocheting, and embroidery were among the crafts taught the students. In summing up the year's work one would say East High is keeping pace with current trends by thoroughly equipping a versatile group of future homemakers.

Page 42 he Artistic View On this page are examples of the work being done in the art department this year under the instruction of Miss Kathryn Rogers. Its most important phases included murals and backdrops. The murals were designed by Marie Reichenbacker, Joan Johnson, and Louise Kern. Backdrops were made for the Armistice program and for the swing show, '6Cheerful Yearfulf' The backdrops for the swing show were designed by Wanda Postel and painted by other students in the classes who had had some experience in painting. The biggest project developed in the fall was the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, used in the stage set for the Armistice day program. It was worked out by Joan Johnson, Marie Reichenbacker, and Louise Kern. While these people were busy with their murals and backdrops, the rest of the students worked on daily assignments, such as water color painting, charcoal drawing, or quick action sketches. The art students created interesting crafts. The majority of the students chose pewter plates, wooden plates, or masks. In keeping with the school-wide emphasis on war work, the art students are doing their share in helping the Red Cross by making articles the Red Cross ordered from East High art classes.

BOTTOM: Caesar class conjugating the verh cornu. irdling the Globe Enrollees in Spanish and Caesar this year have fouml thesc studies entertaining as well as educational. Spanish classes under tht- instruction of Miss Erma Prizler have had an added attrac- tion f the He-ader's Digest in Spanish. Con- versations in Spanish during class aided the students to speak Spanish. the language which is lnecoming more important as our link with the Pan Ain:-rican countries hecomes stronger. The textlrook tells of famous Spanish ex- plorers and numerous historic places in the llnitcd States. Latin, sometimes called a dead language, is very much alive to the students of Miss Marie Camphell's Caesar class. Besides read- ing about the exploits of Caesar and the Roman laws from which our government is patterned, the student enlarges his vocahu- lary, since so many of our Words are derived from Latin. Knowledge of foreign languages enriches our background and hecomes essential as modern transportation makes the world smaller. TOP: R. Olesen, A. Cun- ningham, A. Reed, Il.

Adventuring with Books With the added impetus which the war gives to the need for communication, English as- sumes a 111ore important role in our daily lives than ever lrefore, for we realize that everyone must learn to express his thoughts as effectively and intelligently as possible. The department at East High strives to pro- vide rich and varied opportunities to achieve this proficiency as well as to acquire a broad cultural appreciation of literature as a fine art. The schedule includes a variety of English courses from which students may choose. Those interested in news writing may take journalism. College prep is offered in the senior year to those who are pursuing an academic course, while literature and life is designed for non-academic students. For those interested in ease in expression there is a class in oral English. The dramatically inclined may register for a semester of creative dramatics. The vocational printing English students. directed hy Miss Florence Black. are experi- menting with a new project useful not only to themselves hut also to their former class- mates now in service. The class prepared an honor roll with the lroys' names and hranchcs of service. One Monday in class each student has his choice of a service man to write to. The next Monday all write to one hoy. A similar project has helped tenth grade students learn the art of carrying on corres- pondence. Page 45 xperimenting in the The world ul' svienee intrigues svholars with its limitless possibilities.

Because studcnts taking aeronauties are aware of the importance of aviation in the future, they thoroughly appreciate the oppor- tunities this course grants them. Aeronautics provides a hasic lrackground for the hoys who are planning to hecome pilots. Students taking aeronautics will, in the future, help to improve our present day planes. They will be among the first to understand the dawn of the air age. Prove it is a threat to your safety in the geometry classes, conducted hy YVilliam Wia- tcrs.

' lun Often as we make our way along foreign trails, we may discover that our extra-curricular activities have provided us with equipment never to be obtained from classroom activ- ities. Our participation in these has given us new power to sight the intriguing vistas that stretch before us. We have had opportunities to develop our talents, to cooperate with and adjust to others having similar interests. As individuals we have practiced personal ini- tiative, foresight and discrimination along with underlying tenacity.

The Sadie Hawkins party, to which the girls escorted the boys, drew the most interest. Among the achievements of the committee this year was the purchase of a jukebox. Ushering at all of the school events was in charge of the ushering committee, headed by Don Adams the first semester and Earl Mussett the second. The publicity and bulletin board com- mittee, headed by a member of the library science class, has charge of the bulletin boards in study hall, halls, and library. Upon the shoulders of Evelyn Paras and Ernest Pines the first semester, and Vlfallace Farnham the second semester, fell the re- sponsibility of the citizenship and war work committee. This committee not only has charge of keeping the grounds and buildings clean and of the conduct of students at school events, but also of East High's war work. Among the drives sponsored were Junior Red Cross, Greek Relief, and collections of books and records for service men. LEFT: D.

Their main contributions for entertainment were Common Clay Court and i'All on a Summer's Day. Their debut came when they presented MCOIHIIIOII Clay Court for their fellow students in an audi- torium program. These dramatists have by no means hoarded their talents, for during the year they made numerous appearances for other associations, meetings and banquets. They also exhibited their talent before the Quota Club, the Longfellow P. T. A., the Pan- hellenie group, a co-op student banquet, and at one of their own parties. FIRST ROW: G. Foufas, D.

Concern and doubt filled the air as Noah, fully aware of the mighty flood ahead, con- structs an ark to house himself, his family, three orphan neighbor girls, and a number of animals through the fateful days beyond. Sound effects, lighting, and the rhythm of the characters proved to be vital elements in the production. Delbert Baker played the title role of Noah, a troubled but faithful old man, who, with his family and belongings, boarded the ark. Mama, Noah's wife. who loved him b11t still harbored that sense of uncertainty, was por- trayed by Shirley Harlsell. Ham, the second of Noahis three sons, was enacted by Roger Olesen. He played the part of the critical and unbelieving. Noahis other two sons, Shem and Japhet, were healthy and trustworthy young fellows. These parts were played by Richard Gardner and Roland Watkins. Elaine Benson, Audrey Rathbun, and Row- ena Garrett played the roles of the three orphan neighbor girls, Ada, Sella, and Norma. Alan Cunningham portrayed the Nlan, a hunter, yet a brutal person also representing the unbelieving. ln the end he was a victim of the great disaster.

Coach Bill Wlalers. in his first year of super- vising wrestling at East High. developed a seemingly green and inexperienced group into a plugging mat team which came through with five wins and four losses. What the team lacked in almility and material was made up hv their never sav die spirit. As is usually true of an inexperienced squad, thc Trojan matmen got off to a slow start, hut aftcr their Hrst three meets they came hack vigorously to finish the season with 204 points to their credit compared with l60 for their opponents. A marked show of improvement and stami- na was indicated hy the first year men, Andy Tidemann, Merle Shreve, Chuck Wllitlley, Sid Liderman, Bill Salmon, and Boll Huge. In individual scoring Chuck Metcalf wrested a Hrst place in the Big Seven Tourna- ment and placed second at the district and state finals. Chuck also secured top honors of the team, scoring a total of 4-5 points, while Andy Tidemann placed second, and Dick West, third.
