Book-laden freshmen be gin the new semester STORY OF THE YEAR The clear autumn, early-morning air was broken by the din of alarm clocks all over the east side. Electric buzzing, old-fashioned bells and the mod- ernistic radio turned on by a clock, brought 1,226 sleepy-eyed, tousled heads up from the pillows, and 1,226 puzzled minds wondered why in the world the alarm was going off at 7:00 A.M. Then 1,226 shaky stomachs were reminders that today was the first day of school. Yes, that was us back on September 4, 1946. Some of us groaned a little on the way to school, but once we were back in the old familiar halls of East, we were rather glad to be there. Everything was about the same as we had left it, except for a few changes. The auditorium and some of the class rooms were showing off a new paint job. Some of the kids had changed too. We couldn't Snmmevd game quite place that blonde girl. Oh, no wonder! She had cut her hair! But who were those strange creatures wandering around with lipstick on their faces? We found out when someone yelled, Hey, Greenhorn! Don't you know freshmen aren't al- lowed on the upper floor ? Laughing, we re- called days way back when someone taunted us with shouts of freshie . We soon slipped back into the groove of re- moving our gum before class, and reading some- thing besides the Sunday comic section. Pete Watson, Bill Buckley, and Norma Pfeifer, elected to lead the Student Council last spring, began making plans for the semester. The Boys' and Girls' Clubs held their annual parties for fresh- men. These organizations also joined with the band in sponsoring the annual Magazine Drive. 94' , mf, QmiqcwmfeaaM,ancfme.aZlgcv.wzfriencL1.
