We were over the summer blues by the first home football game. Un- fortunately, by the seasons’ close we fell short by two games of making the playoffs. Basketball had arrived, putting football on the back burner. We were now seeing once again male cheer- leaders help cheer us on to victory. The women's swim team swam for the HHC title for the third year in a row. The other fall sports gave a good show of their intense summer training. By December the warm weather finally turned cold. The first big snow caused the first snow day, December sixth. For the first time concert choir was invited to Salt Lake to sing with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. East's fall play “Look Homeward Angel” by Thomas Wolfe was featured for three nights in November. Musicians and actors joined to present Rogers and Hammerstein’s “South Pacific” dur- ing four performances in March.

To take one look we would have to look again. The illusion of the First Presbyterian Church gives a false meaning. The Indiana Bell building is in front of the church. As time goes by the old fades away and the new be gins. We look back to find ways to better what we do. The reflection of the old courthouse reminds us of what we learn or what will happen James Brewer The triangular shape gives the new courthouse a mod- ern architectural look about it. Still standing after aging and once being the center of town, the old courthouse will remain along with the other old buildings. illllli e -a m II lr-r-. »rr r Opening

Ready. Set. Go! After more than one year's worth of work teachers along with the ad- ministration completed the North Central Evaluation, which occurs ev- ery seven years. The thorough inves- tigation of the total school program earned East a special first class rat- ing. Already depressed by new restric- tions, the seniors felt the gloom of knowing theirs would be the first class not to enjoy the senior week tradition. A later date for graduation, May 31, brought about disappoint- ment. This general unhappiness quickly gave way to an almost frantic level of activities from awards night and prom to signing the last college application. We often wonder if we will make it THROUGH IT ALI We look through it all to find ways to make it THROUGH IT ALL . . . Mike Clancy
