Cut town houses the largest privately owned pack- ing plant in the world and also a large branch of the eartlfs finest farm machinery corporation.

From these homes come teen-agers represent- ing twenty-one different ancestral backgrounds with German and English predominating. When the first family built its log cabin on the banks of the Cedar in 1845, they founded the community which in only a century can boast almost 16,000 homes. Parallel with the development of city homes has been the growth and modernization of the rural areas. Now 1095 of our students drive from two to ten miles along rich Iowa farm land in their daily trips to East High. From this varied home background we modern American youth Hnd a common ground of understanding as important members of our school community. All of us gain a wealth of appreciation from the mere association with others who may differ from us even in principles and credos. Through our experiences here in high school we hope to learn how to build even better homes than those from which we've come, for we are the future homemakers of Vfaterloo. TOP Typical of the early homes in Black Hawk county is this rude cabin of a century ago. CENTER: One of the many rural homes from which come present East High students. 1 BOTTOM: Waterloo's residential area on the east side of the river spells ho1ne to the majority of Eastonians. DLI 5240055 Foremost in the minds of early colonists in America and of pioneers in Black Hawk County has been the desire that the youth learn readin', writin' and 'rithmetic. Though the first public school in Black Hawk County was built in Cedar Falls, the first high school on the east side of the Cedar was constructed in 1875 in the site of the present East High School. The first graduating class in 1877 numbered three students. This year 277 students are completing their high school days at East. Since 1877 styles have changed, courses of study have developed, athletics and extra-curricular activities have evolved, but youthful enthusiasm and sincere friendliness still characterize Eastonians. Today Vfaterloo Public Schools are training us students to think for ourselves, to be alert to current affairs and to evaluate our own activities. Significant of the earnest- ness with which we can weigh and consider was our decision to remain in school on V-E Day in recognition of the fact that the great task of winning the war was only half-way achieved. Truly we are a democracy, where the intelligent will of the people rules. RIGHT: Black Hawk County's yirst school building. LOWER LEFT: The frst high school on the east side of the river.

A744159 Youth in the quest for knowledge have been Walking around the halls of East High for a quarter of a century, While We, the class of 1945, have called them ours for the brief span of three years. In our search for insight into the mysteries of life We have had the inestimable advantage of the inspired leadership of the board of educa- tion, the administration and the faculty. The youth of today are repeatedly charged With being soft, carefree and irresponsible.

Dcwccs The experiences of each student in the Waterloo Public School are the direct result of the careful and often seemingly unrewarded planning of the Board of Education. Upon their shoulders fall many duties which the community so frequently takes for granted. The otiicers of the board include Charles Mc- Kinstry, presidentg E. A. Ralston, secretary, and Wfm. A. Dewees, treasurer. Meetings are held the second Wfednesday in every month at 7:30. This year the teachers' retirement plan, worked out in co-operation with a committee from the Wgiterloo Teachers Association, was introduced to the community and accepted in a city-wide election. The second major project discussed was the necessity of additional post-war junior high buildings. One of the greatest problems connected with such an undertaking is the diiliculty of seeing far enough into the future to incorporate in the plans the needs of the school children of today and tomorrow. To that task the present board is directing its resources. 5 .Si .!4CClfLIf'6LC E. A. Ralston fills the position of secretary of the Board of Education. Assisting him in the numerous duties of his office is Mrs. Adah Train. Miss Ruth Van Fleet is the bookkeeper in this otiice. Taking care of the attendance records and follow-up work is Mrs. Josephine Higley. As city storekeeper, Fred -I. Miller has charge of supplies for the district. In Principal Charles HoFfman's offices, Miss bilitivs. and Waimea Geneva Nay directs the varied duties necessary to keep mechanical details of the school running smoothly. Betty Lou Ellingson works as assistant part of each day. The secretarial work in Superintendent jack l.ogan's office is handled by Miss Lorraine Rose.

Logun CAQKQVL 8144 0 As superintendent of Walterloo schools, Jack M. Logan has always shown the utmost confidence in the ability of American youth to forge ahead and accomplish what at first seemed almost impossible. Seeing unlimited potentialities in students, he in- spires them to strive to reach ever higher goals and to attempt to achieve success in whatever they undertake. Because of his stimulating confidence in them, East High students feel that they must prepare themselves to live constructively in today's world. Charles L. Hoffman, principal of East High, has helped to establish Fast High School as one of the most democratic student bodies in the country. He especially encourages students to take the initiative in all school activities. Because of his high academic standards, East- onians are more conscious of what education should mean and do for them. Presenting a challenge to young people, he seeks to promote a well oriented student body who understand their places in the scheme of things. Priuripal Charles L. Hoffman lg 0Lg0gf5 61, fd WOJQVWQ Friendliness and co-operation in student-teacher relations have contributed to East's goal of a truly democratic school. Alert to ever-changing trends in education, East's faculty is constantly striving for professional advancement. Taking the initiative in directing post-war planning has been the guidance com- mittee, composed of representatives from each department of instruction. Under the chairman- ship of Leonard Raffensperger they have been holding semi-weekly meetings for discussing prob- lems of student orientation and teacher-pupil- parent contacts. In addition, the faculty at its regular weekly meetings has considered problems posed by the A publication of the Educational Policies Commis- sion, Education for All American Youthf, Two faculty members, Miss Lillian Enlow and Mark Flanders, received outstanding recognition by winning first place in a state newspaper contest on how to use a newspaper in the schools. Several of East's teachers held oflices in the Waterloo Teachers Association. Social life for the faculty group this year in- cluded picnics and Wednesday night coffees, at which various members have served as hosts and hostesses. These friendly get-togethers provide a chance for informality and closer association resulting in a better understanding and a higher caliber work.

In case he was absent, john McKee, his alternate, substituted. Every Tuesday morning Walter Marx and Jack Rigdon took orders for stamp and bond purchases for the homeroom, selling them Wednesday morn- ing. Room 109, Miss Marguerite Blough's home- room, has established a Hne record. It was divided into five committees, namely: publicity, morning activities, stamps, sports, and citizenship. These committees were headed by Don Adams, Evelyn Huck, Bob Brunstein, Bob Beener and Joan Conklin. During the Hrst semester, Norman Carlson was the student council representative and Bob Anderson was alternate, but for the last semester, Bob Beener was representative and Nan Herwig was alternate. Norman Crossley and Bob Beener were presi- dent and secretary. They turned the homeroom over to Evelyn Huck, president, and Pat Callan, secretary, for the second semester. From this room came three nominees for next year's council presidency. elfziorify JWAMQ! Under the leadership of Ed Gibson, sales of war bonds and stamps in Mark Flanders, 11A home- room had been particularly high, with 100 per cent for many months. The numerous homeroom parties sponsored in their sophomore year had been discontinued in order to promote better council parties. Homeroom officers included student council representative, Bill Crow, alternates, Lois Fosse and Colleen Fergerg stamp representative, Ed Gib- son, and junior class representatives, Donald Funk and Colleen Ferger.

After drawing up their platforms, they had a fierce campaign. The outcome of the elec- tion held March l, 1945, found Mike Kalianov winning the mayoralty. The eouncilmen elected were Evelyn Hemsath, George Huntback, Ken- neth Jensen, Deedrick Lewis and Kenneth Koger. Carl Jensen was elected assessor and Fred Greene, trasurer. These officials and the student council representatives, Beverly Kunkle and Kenneth Koger, kept Lukesville running smoothly. UL! QQ, In Miss Velma Older's 11A homeroom Max Low- cock served as the presiding officer the entire junior year. The first semester student council repre- sentative from this homeroom was Bob Morrissey, assisted by Polly Middleton. Second semester coun- cil representative was Sidney Lederman with Dora Fay serving as alternate. Homeroom secretaries for the year were Marjorie LaPole and Gene Martin. Acting as a leader among the junior home- rooms, this group sponsored a junior party. Setting their goal at the top they purchased War stamps near the 100 per cent quota all year. They also supported every charity drive sponsored by the school. - id ffm EIO The representative to student council from Miss Erma Prizler's 11A homeroom was Jim Ryan with Barbara Nottger acting as alternate. 'Attend- ing the junior class council meetings were Marie Reichenbacker and Wayne Seidler. Alice Ridder also attended these meetings of the junior class council as she was elected from the junior class to act as secretary. As stamp representative from room 114, Earl Roberts kept everyone conscious of the war by urging bond and stamp purchases. Phyllis Rifen ably assisted Earl in taking orders and distributing stamps on Tuesdays and Wed- nesdays. MISS OLDER'S HOMEROOM Moody SECOND ROW: R. Matrox, M. L:iPole, FIRST ROW: D.

Grcnifd Wolf owe During the past school year, William Waters' junior homeroom progressed normally despite war- time trends. Bill Wilcken was elected to serve as homeroom president both semesters. First semester delegates to the student council were Jack Weldon, representative, and Charles NVheeler, alternate. Stamp council representative was Ed XVenthe, assisted by Richard Swim. New oflicers elected for the second semester were Dean Winter and Jack Weldon to the stu- dent council and stamp council, respectively. Paul Worley was made student council alternate, while Charles Wheeler served in the same capacity on the stamp council. Junior class council representa- tives were Bill Wilcken and vclda Willer. The class of present mid-year seniors dwindled considerably during the last few semesters, due to students accelerating their programs or joining the armed forces. As a result, the two homcrooms, Miss Laub- seher's and Miss Sloan's, were consolidated into one class having less than twenty-live students. This was a satisfactory solution, and the group has had many lively and interesting discussions led by their council representative, Herbert Miehe. Stamp sales, almost always over 90 per cent, were also carried on with Kathleen Ellis in charge. A Seniors VIOl.A ACRICR MAN -filo-op, 'iii' DORIS ALISIQRTSON fStamp Council: Ci. A.

In the senior year college prep is scheduled for those who intend to go to college, while literature and life is recommended for those entering business or industry. As the world grows smaller, it becomes in- creasingly important to know and understand our neighbors.

Special displays have been featured this year to promote reading of books that will develop under- standing of world neighbors. Collecting transcriptions and recordings has been a new feature of the library science classes this year, and on special days, such as Lincoln! birthday and Christmas, appropriate records are played in the library.

Researchers Opportunities for scientists of the future are un- limited. Basic understandings of these fields are given members of East science classes. Mark Flanders' physics classes give the student the universal principles on which implements of war are constructed and on which the necessities and conveniences of peacetime are built. The chemistry classes under the direction of August Lukes are learning the chemical nature of substances and the fundamental importance of chemical change in the transition of substances. W'ith the development of industry aeronautics begins to receive attention not only as a weapon of war but as a means of bettering humanity. George Leebl, aeronautics instructor, provides his classes with basic facts on varied phases of pre- flight. Velma Older's biology classes are interesting experiences where the student learns to be an ap- preciative observer of his oxvn human place on the stage of life. Geometry has a role in everyday life in that it teaches a student to reason. Bill Whiters states that logical thinking is essential in life, and geom- etry requires logical thinking. Vocational math, taught by Russell Starr, and business arithmetic, with Ralph LeMoine as in- structor, induct the student into accurate com- putation. Tn ard Selzuril The main purpose of the co-op program is pre- paring students to adjust themselves to the work- ing world. Approximately thirty-three of the seventy students working are employed in otlices in which they do general clerical, typing, secretarial and machine work. A year-around average of fifteen girls are doing sales work in local department stores under the supervision of Miss Carrie Hansen. The industrial arts class has an enrollment of twenty-two boys who work in defense plants and machine shops with George Leebl as their in- structor. ltept in the commercial department. Material for these records is the responsibility of each work- ing student. Pay reports are filed after each pay day. At the end of each month a worlt report representing the hours spent on each division of work is also filed. Each student is required to keep a cashhoolt showing income and expenditures.

It's fun even to :lo dishes, scrub walls or give parties when you know fhe rules, ar- forrling to these future homemakers. With llrtistr and Skill That annual spring houserleaning is easy when the proper techniques are used. The homemakers of tomorrow have received well rounded training in Eastls homemaking classes. Topics of study in the lirst semester included per- sonal grooming, proper dress, social acceptability, food and health. Family relationships, home management, child care and care of the apartment were discussed in the second semester. As an influence of the war, discussions of post-war rehabilitation were carried on. Home nursing classes were also conducted. As a part of meal planning, and also for experience, the first period homemaking class of the second semester prepared a dinner for the football team. East High girls are truly becoming proficient in the practical applications of the skills taught them in their homemaking classes. The boys in the vo- cational printing class get the equivalent of two years' apprentice- xbip in one school year. Builllinq Tnmnrrn ' Wnrld Vocational printing, in which one year's work is the equivalent of a two years' apprenticeship in a com- mercial print shop, is under the supervision of a former Waterloo printer, Fred Latta. School papers and report cards for both East and West elementary and secondary schools are some of their projects. Vocational metals, where students are taught to operate machines for shop work, is offered to all boys who have completed metals l and ll. The class is not merely a theory course, but under the direction of Milton Kemmerer is conducted as a regular shop is operated. The boys in vocational drafting learn a skilled art useful not only in one special form of work but in numerous branches of industry. Under the guidance of Russell Starr the boys are engaged in the reading and drawing of blueprints. Reconstruction of the world needs skilled carpenters and woodworkers. East High is qualified to supply such skilled workers from training in its woodshop under the direction of Hugh Logan. 47 UPPER: Accuracy is necessary for precision work in the woodshop.

Geist CAOLVLVLQ in gifLLLAvwi0L5m5 Will the Student Council please come to order? Every week for the past school year Ralph Ander- son, president of council, has brought the group to a consideration of the problems that face the representatives of the student body. As secretary of the council, Jeri Doran has proved efficient. Neil Williams, vice-president, has presided over many auditoriums. Treasurer has been Chuck Metcalf. Under the direction of Miss Jean Sloan, advisor, the council this year has set as its aim placing more responsibility on students and directing them to assume their responsibility by carrying out the things they undertake. An innovation has been the regular monthly meetings of the council held at 9:00 o'clock in the cafeteria with council members excused from their regular scheduled classes. This plan was de- vised to provide ample time for a thorough weigh- ing of the problems of importance which are some- times passed over too lightly in the before-school sessions. Antrim? The committees have worked seriously and have brought numerous projects to successful con- clusions. They have provided the student body with some particularly interesting as well as orig- inal auditoriums arranged by the auditorium C0111- mittee. ehairmaned by Polly Middleton and Neil Wfilliams, first semester. and by Neil XVilliams, second semester.

One of the most outstanding was the assembly in honor of our faculty. It came as a surprise to the teachers and in a small way showed our ap- preciation of them. Another was the annual Trojan Club program, which was as humorous as anything Barnum and Bailey ever staged. Along more serious lines were the varied speak- ers who shared our platform. Superintendent Jack Logan and Reverend A. L. Drake did a competent job in making us realize the importance of student responsibility while we are in school and in civic life after our school days. The Hne counseling and friendly personality of Dr. Harold Case will make a lasting impression in many students' thinking. Other noteworthy speakers included a college president, a newspaperman, a jewish rabbi and business men. The Book Wfeek auditorium, using as its theme the literature of the four United Nations, was .1 project of the college prep classes and the oral English class. In recognition of the history-making year through which we have passed, three memorial auditoriums of a serious vein paid homage to the divine guidance necessary to bring us through to ultimate victory.

Before the On October 27 East High School's drama department tried something new in the annals of the school when they pre- sented a bill of three one-acts. The first play was a comedy, The Weddingu, by John Fitzpatrick. The characters in-- cluded Fred Miehe, Bob Charles, Harriet Ann Rogers, Warren Harden, Henry Bruns, Margaret Ann Fox and Jeri Doran. The second play was Objections Overruled' by William Z. 2-:Q ,Q- Ei Jones. Characters were Dick Diekmann, Dorothy Reinhart and Joyce Hellem. Altogether different from the other two in mood was Marching Menn by James O'Brien. Its characters were World War I soldiers, Wallace Farnham, Everett Bailey, Neil Williams, Art Hussmann, Gail Melick, Earl Mussett and Robert Anderson. The role of the nurse was portrayed by Anne Reed. The plays were under the direction of Miss Dorothy Rambo with George Leebl advising the stage crew. nntliqhts Armistice Day brought the sec- ond year's presentation of Pag- eant of American Freedom, sponsored by the social science department. A cast of approximately 150 students appeared in six main acts. Art Hussmann as chron- icler provided the continuity, with Anne Reed portraying the spirit of freedom. The AU choir and the band offered appropriate selections throughout the performance. On Sunday afternoon, Decem- ber 17, the traditional Christmas story was enacted in the annual presentation of the Nativity. lts warm and sincere holiday spirit drew many regular school patrons. The production was under the direction of Miss Dorothy Rambo and Miss Edna Lcnicelt. Beth Hutton took the part of the Virgin Mary, Max Lowcock played the role of Joseph, and Mary Pitze portrayed the Arch- angel. RIGHT TOP: Harding places u wreath on the tomb of tbe unknown soldier.

Trave Everything from comedy to romance, baby bonnets to fascinating formals, and 1909 Oldsmobiles to real propellered airplanes found their way onto the stage during the course of the two hour show which played to a capacity crowd on the nights of March 22, 23 and 24. The show was promoted and staged by students under the direction of an executive committee. Student chairman of the com- mittee was Corrine Fink. Other members included Marilyn DuBois, Art Hussman, Dick Harvey, Charles Metcalf, Marcella Bandfield, LuAnn Leland, Ed Gibson, Bar- bara Glasson, Susan Walters, Norman Cross- 54 ley, Monica Rechtfertig, John Hopper, Harry Grove and Alice Ridder. Beginning with a mere idea, co- operative effort developed the show into a four act production worthy of a professional billing. The show included Rippling Rhythm, Rhythm on Rails, Mobile Rhythmf, and Aerial Rhythm. Much of the show's success was due to the stage and light crews, who tackled and conquered the gigantic problem of creating and building elaborate sets and effective light schemes. Lovely costumes were produced under the guid- ance of the homemaking department. Travel In Treble was a success because of the combined efforts of every student and teacher in- volved in planning and producing the 1945 version of the swing show. Il Treble endow was ialfw Pygmalion, a George Bernard Shaw comedy, was presented by the East High senior class, June 2. Based on the Greek myth of the sculptor, Pygmalion, who fell in love with his creation, it is the story of Professor Henry Higgins and Eliza Doolittle, the flower girl hejransforms into a lovely and cultured woman. Seen in the leading roles were Anne Reed, as Eliza, and Roderick Briggs, as Professor Henry Higgins. Others in the cast were Fanchon Aungst as Mrs. Pearce, Don Kristensen, Doolittle, Fred C 6 7 in ygma ion Miehe, Colonel Pickering, Carrol Fox, Miss Eynes- ford Hill, Dick Harvey, Freddie, Jeri Doran, Mrs. Higgins, Pat Howell, Mrs. Eynesford Hill, Pat Casey, parlormaid, and Marilyn DuBois, Lois Fosse, Donna Fosse, Margaret Fox, Margaret Rein- ville and Jack Malek as bystanders. Unlike the characters in the myth, Higgins failed to return the love of Eliza because he re- garded his bargain only as a scientific experiment. Pygmalion, now on Broadway, is typical of Shaw's deliberate striving for effect.

VL pdafgrm aww! pvwozcfe The East High band climaxed another year in a spring festival featuring Carlton Stewart, prom- inent Iowa high school band director, as guest conductor. The marching band, which was led through its maneuvers on the football field by Nathan Barr, received plaudits for many of its performances in the field as well as at the pep meetings. At the end of the football season, however, Mr. Barr left Wglterloo to take over a radio position. Miss Edna Lenicek assumed the direction of the band for the remainder of the school year. The swing band, one of the IHOSI important factors in the swing show, was composed largely of members of the band. Several musicians also appeared as soloists for P.T.A.'s, church events and civic groups. Many band members are playing with dance bands, the American Legion Band and other musical organizations.

Lwicialfw mel The special event towards which much of the music work of the year has pointed was the public concert presented by the combined orchestras and choirs of East, West, Cedar Falls and Teachers College High Schools. The concert was given April 20, at East High. The hours preceding the program were scheduled with group rehearsals under the direction of guest conductors. George Howerton, director of the choral activi- ties at Northwestern University, divided the morn- ing between East and West High, instructing the A choir and Philomel from the two schools. The afternoon was spent preparing for the even- ingls concert. Mr. Howerton, who had conducted the choral group at the previous music festival, was asked to return because the students so thor- oughly enjoyed his work with them. The students in orchestra also spent part of the morning rehearsing the numbers on their program with their guest conductor, Merle -I. Isaac of Chicago. The final orchestration of the concert was a combined orchestra and choir ar- rangement of Sigmund R0mberg's Stouthearted Men. The combined bands of the same schools pre- sented a program at Wlest High, April 19. The director, Carleton Stewart of Mason City High, spent the afternoon of April 19, working with the bands preparatory to their appearance. Jerry Wfilley of East and William Kloster of West were featured as special soloists during the band concert. IXIWLTA Mow ana! Cgifrzfngd Both the orchestra and small instrumental groups have been entertaining Wilterloo and student audiences again this year. The orchestra made its first appearance at the all-school play October 27. They presented the audience with melodies which set the mood for thc play bill which followed. Playing for the senior class dramatic produc- tion ended the season for the members of the orchestra. The music festival was the major event in which the orchestra participated. Popular selec- tions of their program were the Rosamunde Overturen by Schubert and the Hungarian Dance No. 6U by Brahms. For a little accent on the strings, Minuetto for string orchestra by Dasch and Jazz Legatou by Anderson provided a change of rhythm and tone. Romberg's The Student Prince concluded the recital. As a contrast to the larger orchestral ensemble, East High had a string quartet working under .1 new director, Mrs. ,lean Lunder. Practicing in this group every Thursday morning were Doris Murphy and Gene Allen, violins, Lola Silvers, viola, and Betty Andrews, cello. FIRST ROW: D. Murphy, D. Fulton, A. L. Moss, M. Miller, L.

During the Christmas season, the vocalists presented the musical background for the Nativ- ity and were asked to give a program of music for the Rotary Club. On several occasions they have appeared before audiences at Grace Methodist Church. Another highlight of their season, coming at Easter, was the invitation to sing at the Easter Sunrise Service at the Y.M.C.A.

Under the coaching of Rod Gormly, the East Thin- clads completed the 1945 season in whirlwind style, highlighted by their successful defense of their 1944 District track championship. The first meet of the year took the experienced East team to Iowa City for the Mississippi Valley indoor track meet. Here the Trojans garnered fourth place, with only Hve points separating the first four teams. Later, the Trojans were hit hard by the loss of Dan Starr, one of the main cogs in the sprint relay teams, through induction into the navy. East,s 440, 880 and medley relays were classed with the fastest in the state. Their distance relay teams also have commendable records in tough competition throughout the state. The Trojans participated in the Marion Relays, Teachers College Relays, Grinnell Relays and Drake Relays, winning all their dual and triangular meets. Blue ribbons this season were evenly distributed, going to Bob Ryan, state champion in the 220 yard dash: J. Hollingsworth, speedy dash man: and Jim McKinstry, dependable weight man.

Basahall Team Basis llppnnants The East diamond demons, under the direc- tion of Coach Bill Waters, have completed an- other successful season of baseball. With eight returning lertermen as the nucleus, the team started the season in high gear and was soon rated as one of l0wa's most promising nines, winning seventeen of eighteen games during the season.
