UAQ 948 mom of EAST HIGH SIIHUIQII. W ln,In Fall of 1947 came to W'aterloo bringing with it the back-to- school excitement of early September days. As the year evolved, activities gained momentum. All too soon students and faculty found thenlselves in a round of spring events that foreshadowed the close of another cycle in the pattern called education. 1 ,..,, - gyms-reg-, , .4 .: ,, ,f-.:-.3-3.5: 1 0 W . .. he .hw 1,1 1 , '-'-' . .,.... : N we , 'f 'ra ., s 1' - mv 5 if -. fr 'M-1 Q , Wifizdf A S 'Q '- wifi: L. ig kiln S9111 V - , T We g:fw gf 24t - a is 5 -...,,, 5 1 4 ? N 'lim ,,., 1 To our football coach and vice-principal, Leonard Raffensperger, who has exerted a vital influence on our high school careers, we dedicate this yearbook. Though he is leaving to accept a position on the coach- ing staff of the State University of Iowa, the ideals he instilled will long remain in the Halls of Troy. For three decades the Trojan has reflected ex- periences and problems that many students at East high have encountered during their high school days. Each edition pictures those incidents common to every graduating class. In this issue we hope to record not only the traditions, hut especially those episodes which are distinctly dif- ferent and have given the class of ,43 its ..... New Look.

Dewees The ll er-all iew Tackling its multiple job of governing the over-all policies of the Wiaterloo schools, of keeping tab on the original foundations and of enlarging facilities to accommodate the ever increasing enrollment in our schools is the hoard of education. This hoard is composed of seven pro111- inent businessmen: Chas. S. McKinstry, A. D. Donnell, Stewart Seidler, Phillips Taylor. Wm. A. Dewecs, Dr. R. S. Gerard and E. P. Horslund, who establish and determine the policies to he followed. They employ .lack H. Logan as superin- tendent of Wlaterloo schools and E. A. Ralston, secretary of the board, to carry out these policies and to make the necessary decisions in relation to the policies. The board meets every second Monday of each month except in July and Nlarch, when they convene as established by law. During this past year the hoard has pro- vided for classroom additions to the Edison and lrving schools to ease the enlarged en- rollment prohlem, and for the enlargement of restroom facilities at Castle Hill school. It has also purchased two new junior high sites. One is the property across from St. Francis hospital and the other is located on Logan Avenue near Allen Memorial hospital. Une of the largest and most important duties to he performed by the hoard each year is the planning and balancing of the hudgct, usually attacked in Nlarch. However, if prices rise hetween that time and the next fall, as has often happened, it is necessary for the hoard to juggle and stretch the appro- priated funds to meet the necessary improve- ments. Because of this, it is often impossible to carry out some projects that were formerly outlined. This year the hoard is spending 3350.000 on improvements. Wlc East students look to the school hoard as our most valuable insurance for an ef- ficient and constantly expanding system of education. ,mg llutlininq Th lmportant factors in developing the program of the VVaterloo schools are Superintendent ,lack Nl. Logan and Principal Charles L. Hoff- man. During the year Mr. Logan had the op- portunity of making an air tour of industry. Talking to the personnel directors in charge of training new employees in plants in East- ern cities he gained greater insight on the employer-employee problem. From their criti- cisms he suggested that the co-op program could he extended and a course in spelling and simple arithmetic he set up for students who fail to meet certain standards. Adjusting the program to current needs Principal Charles Hoffman and Superintendent ,luck Logan rliscuss significant administrative problems and make decisions that guide East students through their secondary school experiences. H Program is only one of many tasks confronting Wir. Logan as he directs educational policies. Wicll-known at East is its genial principal, Wir. Hoffman. Besides guiding the faculty and student body through the educative activities of the school, he is a member of the executive board of the Iowa State Education associa- tion, where he represents the teachers of Northeast Iowa. This past year Mr. Hoffman has lieen par- ticularly plcased with the outstanding spirit of East's athletic teams in co-operating to surinount various difficultiesg he is constantly Working to promote such an enthusiastic spirit of co-operation between faculty and students. Here the Logans spend a comfortable evening at their home on Alta Vista with their young- est son, Mike. Their other son, Jack, an alumnus of East, is community manager at Antioch college. liuidinq lflur Interests Two facility members who undoubtedly contact more students at East high than any others are Leonard Raffensperger, vice-prin- cipal, and Miss Edna Lenicek, co-ordinator of student activities. in addition to assisting Principal Charles Hoffman in setting the policies of the school.

He serves as chairman of the faculty guidance committee and concentrates on questions of veteran administration.

The curtain opened November 14 on East's fall hit, 'LUncle Harry, by Thomas Job. George Leebl and Perry Long acted as technicians for the tri-set show with Miss Esther Oleson in charge of settings. Action takes place in England in the early 1900's with the plot revolving around Harry Quincy, played by Herman Diers, a meek bachelor of about forty- iive years of age who is resigned to the domination of his two old maid sisters. Hester, portrayed by Kathy Perry, is the elder sister, a dominant character. Lettie, depicted by Margaret Reed, is the younger sister who gets her way by wheedling Harry. They wage a mental struggle, each trying to gain Ha1'ry's adulation. Harry becomes Uncle Harry to the townspeople. Shirley Skattum, as Lucy, was once in love with Harry and would have married him had it not been for the interference of the sisters. She comes to straighten things out with Harry before her marriage to George Wfaddy, portrayed by Iver Trebon. Resolving to win Lucy back, Harry displays his true character as he proves himself selfish enough to kill by arranging an ingenious method of ridding himself of his sisters. Nona, the maid, played by Barbara Anderson, adds comedy. D'Arcy, played by Tom Myers, Albert, Don Curtis and Blake, Jim Donnell, are Harryis three cronies. Adding laughs and suspense are Darlene Wherry, Miss Phipps, George Hadley, M1'. Jenkins, Harold Glazebrook, Ben, the druggist, Ralph Schauer, the governor, and Nancy Burk, the matron. Evidence of good directing was seen throughout the suspense-filled play. Stage manager was Jerry Leeperg property mis- tresses, Celeste Miller and Orvola Brooks, wardrobe mistress, Martha Larson.

Wiith a new supply of paint and chalk on hand, the Paint and Palette club embarked on a new year of informal meetings held to encourage work on special phases of art. The entire school was made aware of this club by their contribution of gay, seasonal decorations for hall and library. Study hall was the show gallery where continuous ex- hibits were hung. These paintings displayed varied techniques and skills showing the ve1'- satility of these modern Rembrandts. Mem- bers' talent in the commercial art field was shown by posters advertising school events. To this group also goes the credit for the name cards at our athletic events. Adrian-like costumes and near-Broadway '54 sets were designed and partially constructed by this versatile group. East high's art work is known throughout the state, for three students rated first place honors in the Scholastic Awards contest sponsored by Younkers at Des Moines.

After many months of anxious Waiting and anticipation, new uniforms finally came to the band. These are made of black wool gabardine trimmed with orange and gold braid. The coats are designed so that they may be buttoned up for marching or worn with white shirts and black ties in concert forma- tion. When the new uniforms were donned for the first time at the Roose- velt of Des Moines game, the common satisfaction of both the band members and spectators was evident. Delores Daggett, as chief drum major, was assisted by Ed Harris, ,lim Donnell and Mary Jean Harbin. ln addition to adding color at Easfs athletic events, the Trojan band par- ticipated in the Community Fund pa- rade. Herbert Goodwin was back as di- rector for the second year following his absence during the war years. He served the community in the capacity of presi- dent of the Waterloo Teachers Com- munity Concert association. He also worked with the Waterloo symphony. This year Mr. Goodwin was assisted by Barbara Litchfield, an outstanding flutist and alumna of East high. A grad- uate of the class of l.942, Barbara at- tended Wayne university for one year. She then attended the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, from which she received her Bachelor of Music degree in 1946. Last summer she taught at ln- terlocken music camp, famous summer gathering place of instrumentalists in Michigan. Under the direction of their very able instruction, East high's band completed an exceptionally successful season. Delores Doggett led the band in numerous formations during the marching season. One of these was the Av done as a solute to the alumni at the homecoming game. The girls in orange carried the ball at L the half.

The minute the word 4'homeeoming was mentioned in any homeroom, thoughts im- mediately turned to homeroom decorations. Classrooms would change over night, depend- ing upon their decoration theme. The goal in view was the traveling loving cup awarded each year during the homecoming pep audi- torium to the room whose decorations showed the most originality in theme and decoration. This year's possessor was Miss Velma Older's senior homeroom with its Trojan Zoo. Beverly Stover, our first queen, received her crown and liouquet of red roses from Past Principal Fred J.

With only six lettermen returning, this year's grid eleven sur- prised almost everyone by winning seven games and losing only one. Turning in the best defensive record since 1935, they held their opponents to six touchdowns, two on intercepted passes. two on pass completions and two on ground plays.

Late in the fourth quarter the Trojans held for three downs on their one yard line and the game ended before an- other play was run. East, 213 Roosevelt, Cedar Rapids, 0.

Down 7-6 at halftime, the Trojans came back in the second half to score two touchdowns and hold their opponents scoreless. Des Moines' touchdown on an intercepted pass gave them the distinction of being the first team to cross the Trojanis goal line. East scored both of its touch- downs in the third quarter on runs of 29 and 3 yards, and then settled down to a defensive game. East, 255 Fort Dodge, 0. By capitalizing on Fort Dodge fum- bles and the blocking of the East line, the Trojans struck early and hard, 19-0 at half time. None of the touchdowns was the result of a long ru11, but of steady marching toward the goal line. The fourth touchdown in the third quarter ended the scoring, and the re- serves played the final quarter. East, 185 Mason City, 19. Before a capacity homecoming crowd the Trojans were upset by a fired-up team of Mohawks. East was down, 13-0 before showing any sign of the spirit which had carried them undefeated through their first five games. The Mohawks struck fast, and their early lead was too much for the Trojans to overcome. East scored in each of the last three periods, but their failure to connect for the point after touchdown proved the deciding factor. x Q 3 A Ur - s. W 1-...... L.

Interesting programs were planned and presented throughout the year. Perhaps the two most outstand- ing were the panels: one given by four of the clulfs members and two mothers of high school students and the other headed by Miss Glenda Mabrey, who dis- cussed the recreational facilities in our city. The an- nual Lenten service sponsored by Y-Teen club on the Wedliesdziy of Holy week was again an outstanding auditorium program. Reverend Jacobs delivered a very impressive messageg Nancy Burk read the scrip- tureg and Aw choir and Harold Leistikow provided the music.

Mastain 39 pfanning ana! promofing Student council officials: Jo Bisone, secretaryg Clarence Fre- richs, president, ,lean Rath, treasurer A familiar sight in the library every Tuesday morning at 8:00 o'clock is the gathering of twenty-seven student council members, of- ficers and committee chairmen. The first Tues- day of every month is set aside for a two hour meeting during the day. At these meetings the committee chairmen report the results from the preceding month's events. This is followed by a discussion of special topics and projects which the council wishes to support. Special meetings may be called any time an urgent situation arises. The keynote to the harmony of the stu- dentbody and council work is student-faculty co-operation. The close teamwork of the council and the subsequent leadership in af- fairs at East results from homeroom members' wise selection of their council representatives. The homcrooms' confidence in their represen- tatives plus the representatives' sense of duty to their jobs give that added quality essential to establishing East high as a progressive student governing school. On January 29, three student council rep- resentatives attended the first state-wide meet- ing of student councils at Ames. Here they gained ideas and brought back information on how other councils function. Every drive and project in East high finds its focus in student council and is ultimately carried out through its committees and in- dividual members. Student council, under the faculty advisory of Miss Edna Lenicek and Leland Zimmerman, sponsored such projects as Homecoming and Christmas decorations, Tuberculosis spangle drive and Dutch School Clothing drive, the Abraham Lincoln Friend- ship Milk Train drive, selling of activity books and the annual production of the swing show.

That's what the social committee, led hy George Haus- man, found in their series of parties. Beginning with a 10B orienta- tion party to acquaint sophomores socially, the series included thirteen night social events. All parties developed themes such as the Levi Leap, Sweater Spree, George Washington-V-Valentine dance and the Sadie Hawkins, party. Two Activity Nights gave all a chance to swim, play games. see a movie and floorshow, eat and dance, dance, dance. 'Purchase of a new coke har added the New Look.

To help him is the responsihility of the orientation committee headed hy Ralph Schauer and Shirley Ben- nett. Each semester this committee planned an audi- torium telling new students about activities of each club. They also revised the student handbook, which is presented to new students, sent get-well cards to students ahsent more than three days and assigned committee memhers to introduce transfer students to faculty and students.

The Lenten Easter service added the meditative touch to the student programs while educational pro- grams featured speakers on safety on the highway, two students from Iowa State Teachers College telling ahout life in their native lands and Alaskan pictures with narration by the explorer and photographer.

Y' ' xlaan ing gow! Each East Hi-Y-er has certainly been for- tunate to have been a part of such an ex- tensive program and a full year. One of the main highlights of the year was the fun the boys had at the Y's last Hi-Y slumber party. Serving as waiters at the Yis Men's dinners had compensation, toogthat of plenty of good food. A collection of canned goods for the Sal- vation Army's Christmas baskets was held as a part of the Hi-Y's most useful activities at the holiday season. The boys saw action in sports this year. It was quite a thrill to win the 'fLittle Brown Jug basketball tournamentg then they were fortunate enough to win the district Hi-Y swim trophy. At many of the weekly meetings discus- sions of timely topics were featured with many useful ideas growing out of these discussions. Fellows gained friends through a newly initiated project of writing letters to boys in foreign countries. This is our way of helping promote world fellowship. In the interest of religious tolerance the boys have attended dif- ferent church services in Waterloo for better understanding of various faiths. The program of awarding a uY,' letter to the boys who have given special service and exceptional contribution to the club was car- ried for the first time this year in the Water- loo Club. ln order to win a uY', letter it is necessary to chalk up regular attendance at meetings and activities. All in all, this year's Hi-Y activities have been unusually successful and entertaining. Officers for the year included Judd Leland, presidentg Bob Surface, vice presidentg Jerry Leeper, secretaryg Jim Wells, treasurerg Rod- ney Eickelberg, sergeant-at-armsg and August Lukes, faculty advisor.

The officers for this year were Ralph Schauer, president: Jack Bender, vicc-presi- dentg Clara Hack, secretary, and Gerry Han- son, treasurer. The club was guided by Miss Erma Prizler, Miss Marie Campbell, and Lawrence Garlock as faculty sponsors. During the past year Olympiad has held two induction ceremonies for new members who have satisfactorily fulfilled the require- ments. So that the knowledge of the student body might be increased on the then timely prob- lem of our municipal government. the Olym- piad elub sponsored and presented an audi- torium on the city-manager plan. The Hon- orable Robert Buckmaster, mayor of Wlaterloo and principal advocator of the plan. explained this system, pointing out the advantages and disadvantages. Again this year the Olympiad club ar- ranged the presentation of the Senior Honor day auditorium. At this auditorium due recognition and awards were given to the senior students who had been outstanding in some particular field of their high school work. It is the aim of the Olympiad club, through encouragement of membership, to make the students more interested in their grades and grade point averages. The club hopes to continue to provide the incentive necessary to achieve this important goal. Observing the demonstration of radio technique nt one of the meetings are B. Christensen, R. Leebl, C.

Aimed at creating interest in science and pro- viding a place to experiment, Science club opens its membership to anyone interested in the field of science. One of the activities most prized by mem- bers but often laughed at by other students is our Hpent-house picnicfl Held i11 the spring and in the fall, these meetings start with sack lunches in the physics lah and include ex- peditions to the telescope on the roof, short flights in the Link trainer and experiments in the lab.

'Get that flat! and Watch the teaser! or a'Fly that drop! are seemingly baffling re- marks to most of Eastls student population, but to lVlasquers these are familiar cliches. Our few meetings found thonlselyes sand- wiched between shows and were packed with fun and usually furnished quantities of food.

I I F effing ll'l OCM5 During almost all the events of our school, Camera club has been on the scene to snap shots of informal gatherings, club get-togetlr ers and athletic events. Among the better known activities of Camera club are the noon movies. At the twenty-five movie showings, the comedies, cartoons, travels and short subjects that we presented attracted a total of l,l64 students. These inexpensive shows at five cents each helped us enjoy our lunch hour, and what better way could we pass this time than by seeing a fun-packed show? Many of our meetings were spent by tak- ing informal snaps to learn the techniques needed to turn amateur shutter bugs into pro- fessionals. At other times when the meetings lasted until nine in the evening, we developed and printed films, experimented with the art lllembers observing the details of prize-winning photo- graphs.

CKCLJJPOOHQ6 During their sophomore and junior years stu- dents receive the background of English, branching off to journalism and speech for those interested in specialized programs. Seniors planning to attend college enroll in college prep. Those entering the industrial and business world schedule for language in contemporary life. All English courses em- phasize the development of self-expression and originality in addition to maintaining the basic skills of communication. Throughout Brotherhood week American literature classes attempted to analyze preju- dices hy preparing panels, reading hooks and discussing the vital questions inherent in their unit, 'Toward the Promised Land. Inevitable in the English program is the English correctness test. This test which in- cludes the correcting of punctuation, grammar usage and misspelling of Words is given every six weeks in all English courses to maintain proiiciency in the mechanics of writing. Initiating the idea of presenting five minute radio scripts is the radio class with fourth period study hall and Miss Schoenc- man's English class as listeners. These scripts include interviews with teachers and pupils, commentaries concerning current events with- in school and sport events. Radio classes meet three days a week with discussion class meet- ing on the alternate days. Through the dis- cussion of current affairs students learn the techniques of problem solving. T. C.. n acf an Jicfion Library science classes are offered for girls interested in the technique of library work. These girls assist students in finding their required books, magazines and records, cheek materials in and out and keep our library in order. In this rapidly narrowing world a knowl- edge of more than one language is important in helping us understand other people and their problems. Courses in French, Latin and Spanish are offered in East to furnish a thor- ough knowledge of the grammar of the lan- guage, practice in conversation and fluency i11 reading. Through the use of displays the library encourages students to become acquainted with new hooks and magazines. Available to all students in the library is tl1e record player. Earphones niake it pos- sible for individuals to enjoy the recordings of lIlllSi0 and literature without disturbing those studying. Sometimes these recordings are played for an entire class who have moved to the library locale for the day. llkfagzecl gxperimenfing Striving to attain individuality in style, art classes learn through experimentation to ap- preciate colors, composition and use of various mediums. This year work of students was en- tered in the Scholastic Art Awards contest. East merited three first place awards and honorable mentions. Winning firsts were: ,l. Mclloberts, .l. Bender and G. Hanson and honorable mentions: L. llloran and C. Flint. Biology students find dissecting frogs in- teresting. A thorough study of the anatomy of the frog is an experiment that aids stu- dents in appreciating the machinery of our bodies in relation to the living and dead. Physics is the branch of science that deals with the different forms of energy and the physical changes which they produce in mat- ter. To have an understanding of the princi- ples of physics and their relation to our every- day lives is an essential part of our democratic system. Included in the course is the study of sound, heat and electricity. Intriguing experiments supplement class- room lectures with practical experience. Chemistry being the science which makes our civilization possible, it is only fitting that we know some of its principles. remiumfi In Vocational Woomlsholm students learn to handle tools and machines for leisure time pursuits. During the afternoon, in trade school courses, students make furniture for buildings in the school district. Acquiring techniques necessary to the printing trade, boys in print shop become proficient in assembling stickfuls of type and transferring it into clean galleys. Vocational shop classes gain skill in their craft by filling all the orders of the school system for printed material. Drafting is a descriptive language used ill industrial building and manufacturing wher- ever construction activities are in progress. The fundamentals are attained the first year -learning to describe objects by ortho- graphic projection, auxiliary projection, de- velopments and isometric projection. During the second year these fundamentals are ap- Olfl SLM! plied to machine industry and building con- struction. Metals is a course offered to sophomore boys to discover what field they Wish to enter. The six divisions include: sheet metal work, lathe work, bench metal, forging, arc welding and gas Welding. The boys make a small metal tool chest first, then hammers, chisels, machin- ists clamps and various other tools. Later they may enter a co-op course which obtains them a part-time job to receive further training in their specific field. An outstanding feature in the machine shop which meets the entire afternoon, is the .lohannson blocks used for precision measuring. Boys must take drafting before entering this course as blue print read- ing and shop mathematics are taken up. Tool grinding and sharpening and the use of ma- chines is also taught. This course trains boys to adapt themselves to machine industry. flh.fi1a..fz' Y- Typing is directed toward learning business letter forms. During the first semes- ter classes gain proficiency in typingg second semester Sill- dents type copy for the publi- cations department in addi- tion to their regular assign- ments. owarc! fda guoinedd Wmljcl Practical training is successfully applied in the office co-operative classes. Students find clever advertising and style trends as they look through chain store catalogs. Textiles is one of the most extensively studied units in merchandising. Bookkeeping classes teach fundamentals that can be applied in any office. Both Gregg and Thomas shorthand are offered students interested in secretarial work. The primary purpose of the commercial department is training students for business, though many students enroll in commerce classes for their personal use. The co-op classes at East High are an ex- ample of the new trend in teaching. Any senior with the proper qualifications may work part-time during his last year of high school in one of the three fields: sales, office or industrial.

The main purpose of American history is symbolized by the hook, The American Way of Life by Faulkner, Kepner and Bartlett. Topics are frequently discussed by panels. By the presentation of panels students get a thorough knowledge of a particular problem and an understanding of how to solve this problem. t' Future homemakers engage in diverse activities. Essential to all girls is the training in personal grooming, sewing and cooking. Students enjoy making rugs for their own rooms, knitting sox and sweaters and making clothes. They gain the Mknow howw on table manners through the preparation and serving of a formal dinner. History students have access to hooks, pamphlets and magazines for reference work. Students are expected to read from many sources and then draw their own conclusion. Audiometer device aids in hearing tests. Director of health education Finn Eriksen observes Mrs. Lininger operate new audiometer. Keeping Ph sicall Fil The aim of Nkeeping physically fitl' is carried out through a well-halanced health program under the direc- tion of the school nurse, Mrs. Juanita Lininger. Physical examinations are given annually hy physicians with no charge to the student. Each student is checked hy the nurse, including the inspection of skin. teeth, ears, scalp and hair. The eyes are testcd hy the Snellen E. chart. Every three years, miniature T.B. chest X-rays are given at no charge. Audiomcter tests are given to special reading classes and to students with prcvious loss of hearing. This device cnahles the nurse to test as many as forty students at onc time. The yearly schedule of the nurses includes a follow up of all students with defects found in examinations in order to ohtain correction. Their tasks include first aid, social welfare work and home calls. To our school nurses we owe much gratitude for helping us ukeep physically fit . 56 Archery proves of prime interest to aqua-maids during pool repairs. Healthful and Happ The utwo-hour a week gym classes have this year provided a well-diversified program of seasonal activities. Basic skills were taught, then applied in practice games. After achieving con- siderable ability, competitive games were played between chosen teams. Under the direction of Miss Anna Mae Wack, the Girls' m classes in re ulation white blouses s EY 5 and nav shorts, en'oved a varietv of activities. Y J . . D Soccer was the most popular fall activity and iroved less rou h but not less exciting than the l fl me Wbone-breaking game of football. Included in the winter schedule were basketball, volley-ball, Up in the air, into the blue archery, tap dancing, tumbling and swimming, interrupted by exercises resulting in stiff muscles as well as the anticipated slim hips and waists. Spring witnessed these femmes deserting the gym once more, this time for track and the ever- popular game of baseball. Capturing additional enthusiasm was the girls' basketball team-a team of twenty girls, organized to play Saturday morning games with surrounding schools. The girls racked up a record of three wins and one defeat at the annual Teachers college 'aplay day . Modern Pocahontas hits bull's eyef Relaxing from a successful season is the girls' basketball team. 57 t ,,-.-- Under the co-leadership of Tim Lind and Glenn Stavenhagen, the boys' gym classes par- ticipated in the seasonal sports, football, bas- ket-ball, wrestling, track and baseball. For the first time this year, the boys were required to wear regulation gym suits, composed of a white MT shirt and gray shorts with a blue stripe. Conducted through the homerooms to fur- ther activity for sports enthusiasts was the intramural basketball tournament.

To boost school spirit during reserve bas- ketball games, a reserve cheerleading squad was chosen after several weeks of every-night practices. The five girls added were: Nolu Dale, Joyce Fink, Sally Fox, Pat Logan and Carolyn Reinville. Adding a great deal to the 'cafter gymli convenience is the towel service. Two thou- sand towels were purchased for the girls' and boys' gym classcs and athletic use. These towels, laundered every day, are made avail- able through charging each student seventy- iive cents a semester. Garlock's Corillas reigned as the 1948 intramural basketball champions. For after-gym convenience is the newly established towel service. Keeping physically fit through a well-balanced routine of oalisthenics. Camera club takes time out for a chicken din- ner. Social committee mem- bers serve at a faculty tea before swing show. Members of the art department designed the sparkling merry-go-round as a centerpiece for the pre-swing show lea. Noon finds a crowded cafeteria where the fellas catch up on all the latest in sports technique. Even the girls forget those precious diets for that last bite of home-made cake. We Like Tu Eat, Tun. Even though the new look has swept through the corridors of East, students' appetites haven't changed. Teen-agers still like to eat. No matter whether it's lunch in the cafeteria. tea after school or club picnics and potlucks, food is ravenously devoured. Camera cluh's fried chicken was the envy of many hungry persons and the elaborate table setting at the faculty tea sponsored by student council social committee seemed in- viting to all. The newly instituted coke har, used at school parties and activity nights, has been a great success. Not only does it hold the refreshments, but it is an attractive place for friends to meet. Friendships become more real and good times abound when East's stu- dents and food get together. Newest addition to school parties is the coke bar where I1 variety of refreshments are served. Here C.

Co- operating with the student council it aims to keep things running smoothly. The only requirement for entrance into this club is earning a major letter in one of the five major sports. Of course there is al- ways the problem of initiation, but most athletes are hardy enough to endure it. Effects of an initiation can be evidenced for several weeks before and after the actual occasion. Before the fateful occurence the initates are found walking with their heads in the clouds trying to count the squares of plaster board in the annex ceiling and even searching for a penny hidden upon the lawn of one of the city's hospitals. Though out- siders are seldom at school the night of initiation, they can certainly sense when the event has taken place. No one, no matter how faulty his sense of smell, can fail to detect 60 the slight aroma of garlic that perfumes the halls the uday after . Trojan meetings, held every other Mon- day night in the gym, consist of business sessions, refreshments and sports events. Prob- lems of the school are discussed and con- clusions are reached. After the business meet- ing and refreshments, playing basketball, wrestling, boxing or swimming prove to be welcome diversions. For the first time in the history of the Trojan club, complimentary passes were given to each member admitting him free of charge to all athletic contests at which East was the host school. ln return the club was to lend assistance to anyone who needed it at these contests. Trojan club oiiicers for this year were Don Miller, president, David Grosse, vice-presi- dentg Don Commack, secretary-treasurer. Faculty advisor was Leonard Raffensperger.

Betty Duke, ,lean Ox 69 earning UB choir and Sophomore chorus have played a significant part in the year's musical events. The main purpose of these two groups is to acquaint students with the fundamentals of singing and give them training and practice. These two groups, under the direction of Bliss Ruth Behrens, have appeared in student auditoriums as well as in public performances. In all the vocal auditoriums these groups proved very good listening for the student body. Their first public appearance was the Nativity, in which they combined their talents with those of MAB choir. 'GBW choir is composed entirely of girls while the Sophomore chorus is composed of Snphumnre Iihnrus de .lik mixed voices. After these people have ad- vanced from the sophomore class they are placed in either NB choir or MAB choir, de- pending on their ability, attitude a11d willing- ness to work. The same opportunity for ad- vancement is, of course, offered to HBB choi1'. If the director feels an individual has suf- ficient ahility and the correct attitude, she will assign the person to NAB choir. These groups are constantly gaining knowledge of vocal music as well as learning to get along with their fellow students. They can mean much to any individual as well as contribute to the general welfare as an i1n- portant organization of the school. First row: D. Graham, S. Dennis, I. Longaker, E. Hughes, S.

Baldwin gdncleol in armon Vocal music has been one of the most important extra- curricular activities this year. Under the leadership of our popular new director, Miss Ruth Behrens, g'A,' choir has done much in the way of improving not only their own knowledge of the complication of the sharps and flats but has also brought many enlightening hours of musical appreciation and easy listening to the student body. During the fall this group presented several audi- toriums, but their first public performance was that of the annual uNativity. Wlith this performance the choir gained the satisfaction of having achieved success. Behind all of the auditoriums and public perform- ances were many hours of hard practicing under the capable leadership of Miss Behrens. This group of choral members would enter the vocal room at 7:00 p.m. and put in two full hours of rehearsing, but all realized that the time spent was for their own better- ment and with this in mind, the work was really fun. After the g'Nativity,, everyone's thoughts turned to Swing show, which interrupted the work of the choir as a group. Plans were being made, however, for the big event of spring, the music festival, held at Marshall- town April 16. This event, pioneered by East high, was anxiously awaited by the 60 members selected. The morning consisted of rehearsals of 200 combined voices of students from Marshalltown, VVest and East high schools under direction of Peter Tkach, nationally known composer and arranger of choral Inusic. Girls' and boys, clinics were held during the afternoon and at 7:30 p.m. the combined choirs presented a very entertaining concert. Along with this day of music went a day of fun with students from our own school as well as those from the other schools. Closing the eventful year was the Illusit' presented Senior Honor day. Yes, it was a full year and all musical minded people are looking forward to the opportunity of being members of this group in the coming years. CC 77 W.. fa... , '4M1's. Marden, l had to come hack-l just remembered it was Ernest Potwittle-not Henry. Not Henryln The final curtain closed on the lines of Mr. Carraway Pim, portrayed by Jerry Leeper, in the senior class spring production. The A. A. Milne comedy, HMr. Pim Passes By, was presented on the evening of May 21 under the direction of L. L. Zimmerman. The meek Mr. Pim, a chance visitor in the Marden household, created a hit of excitement hy his confusion of names. Handling the role of Olivia Marden was Kathy Perry. Harold Leistikow played the conventional George Marden, Olivials second husband. Completing the members of the Marden family were .lean Rath as Dinah, George's niece who craves excitement, and Gerry Han- son as Lady Marden, George's matriarchal aunt whose aged vitality added many laughs to the show. Appearing as Brian Strange, a young artist Dinah wished to marry, was Burton Christensen. The role of the maid Anne was played by Pat Snowden. The scene was in the traditional English morning-room of the Marden mansion, which was Hgood enough for George if it was good enough for his great-great grandfather. Act- ing as stage manager for the production was .loe Holdiman. The comedy was presented in modern dress. Dorothy Knief held the position of costume mistress. Clara Hack was committee chairman for gathering props and Margaret Reed served as assistant to Mr. Zimmerman. G. Hanson and H. Leistikow listen expectantly as J. Leeper explains his embarrassing mistake. W'hile J. Rath waits hopefully, K. Perry approves suitor B. Christensen. Script committee hits a rery humorous sug- gestion. C1 llfinder like big ola The theme of the l948 Swing show, wllhree Ring Swingf' revolved around a circus, com- plete with a mcnagerie, clowns and a Big Top. Student designed costumes highlighted the show, and endless hours of student and fac- ulty time went into the construction of the very colorful garln. The stage construction under the direction of George Leebl, was also outstanding, the stage recreating a roller-coaster stairway, a gilt merry-go-round in the center stage, and a steam-Calliope hand-stand. The four pianos featured in the number HBlue Moon were rolled onto the stage on a movable platform. Specialized lighting was required for the statuarics in the Wax Works, and was well handled by the light crew. Rehearsals for the show were carried on often far into the evening, and the specialty numbers, characterized hy the Oriental in- terpretive dancers, required long, exhaustive practice. Close student-faculty co-operation made this year's show a rousing success and a wonderful experience for the participants. The urt class students consider designs to be submitted to the costume committee. ment-provoking pose. Excuse my yawn! Early Saturday morning ticket line.
