Mirza!!! 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. We shall prove to you, Father Time, that We are leaving these halls with the determination and courage so long characteristic of East High's graduates.

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.
