We hope our pictures and patter will give you a Hash back of the year 1948. THE EDITORS 10667 I n WW 546046, Hmm, 76654444 Wear cawzaea, lie new lack, It all began September 3, 1947. In the cool autumn breezes came the persistent calls of mother and the frantic ringing of the alarm clock. Yes, the swimming, hiking, picnicing, and loafing were over, and the buzz of another year's activities began. Approximately 1300 students found themselves tossed on an ocean of activities at East. The bewildered freshie took on the look of amazement, as the seniors baited their traps. A few new faces greeted the homestead, and a few oldsters, who had spent the summer in hibernation, tripped back into the limelight of our own private world. In a short time, East High was again running smoothly and successfully. The National Scholastic Press Association rated our Auroran as All-American, and as one good thing follows another, the '48 Spec drive surpassed its goal. Paula Smith and Moon Gin walked off as the undisputed winners in the annual Magazine Drive, that reached an all time high of 36,000 The dazzle of Davis field took on the sport light as we watched the East High muscle men upset Elgin and Freeport in some fast Tomcat action. Some of us parked on the new bleachers, while others pushed our way in lines to the refresh- ment stand where the Lettermen's Club sold steaming hot coffee to take away those chills.

The music department sang out with In Old St. Louis, an operetta depicting southern life in the nineteenth century. Pat Lay and Ramona Leifheit stirred the audience with their sweet, lark voices. Wfhen the October rains swept in, East High launched the rummage sale, a two-fold project for the senior class and P.T.A. Slightly revising the class motto, Either I will find a way or make one , to Either I will find rummage or make some, the seniors made the drive, under the leadership of Mrs. H. Humiston, another of those E.H.S. successes. All of us were enthralled by the experiences of Nutchuk, the Eskimo, in one of the many special convos presented by the Boys' Club and Student Council. C. I. jones brought us interesting information on gyroscopes, and G. G. Groman re- vealed I-Iow other people talk. Wluat would we do without those enjoyable interludes that force us from our classes? Dancing to the lilting strains of Dale Schultz and his or- chestra, the juniors staged their annual dance, Wir1ter Worl- derlandf' Seeking to avenge last year's defeat, the Tomcats tied their cross-town rivals in the Turkey Day tilt.

Success must have been the password for the senior class, for not long afterward they took us through the pages of Little Women , the senior class play. The humor, pathos, and homeyness of the March family captured all our hearts. The gay costumes of the early nineteenth century brought Civil War days to the East High stage. The end of the quarter brought report cards, bearers of gloom or gladness, and Christmas va- cation. The drama and music classes staged the Christmas Cantata. Scenes from Spain, Holland, Russia, Norway, and Sweden were conveyed in the solemness of the Christmas spirit. aiam, , dak, Then followed the Hurry of the last semester. The East hardwood was invaded by the Big Eight Conference teams. Pep convos brought us closer in spirit to our squad. East defeated West in an evenly matched round-up. Then before we knew it, the basketball season was ended and track sea- son began. Ralph Mead, captain of the track team, led Robbie and the boys to many victories. Work on the Speculum went on and on. Pencil and paper flew, typewriter keys were beaten to death, and deadlines were met. Weary editors nearly collapsed at the impact, but as they slowed down to a gallop, things began to materialize and the real thing was developed. As Minstrel days rolled around, we dipped our lingers into the blackface and again watched Minstrel days are here again as endmen line up to sing the opening song. Shown are R. Hix, E. Donka, J. Swanson, R. Pemberton, H. W. Matthews, G. Kurns, A. Krock, C. M. White, interlocutor, W. Olson, D. Eads, H. B. LaVine, D. Boyd, W. Branch. R. Gurley, L. Spears. 1 O0 0,6 v,as Q. oo. ,, Rogers, J.

He happens to be the teacher. It's Student Day, remember? April showers brought the showboat to town in the form of the Auroran Variety Show. As the students boarded the showboat to shove off, we all realized that there's no business like show business. Suddenly a change came over all of us. We slept in our favorite classes, our heads began to swim, and our thoughts turned away from school toward vacation. Yes, the little green gremlin, spring fever, had invaded our sanctuary. The seniors began to get a little nervous and sometimes even sad. On April 17 everyone had a big date for the senior dance. They felt a little more dignified on this occasion, as this was the last dance they were to sponsor. Class Day came. We read our Specs with en- thusiasm. Baccalaureate was greeted with a ser- iousness that was never felt before. The seniors brushed up on their etiquette for the banquet and danced 'til the wee hours at the prom. And then the whirl of events was over. Their happy dream had ended. They soon found themselves standing on the field in caps and gowns singing Alma Mater as they had never sung before. It had been a joyous year. It had been a hard working year. It had been one of the best years of their lives. L Victors of the individual speaking events in the Big Eight Debate tournament were V. Furnish and I.. Winimeirgren. 2. Running the school for a day seems to be an easy job for R. Shaw, D. Johnson, and J. Burkel, Student Day officers. 3. E. Miller, J. Millen, D, Leesley, and P.

We mei Mrs. Dinge1's oral theme assignment -chemistry experiments-budgets for Miss Dollins-the causes and effects of World War I-cramming for exams- worriedly awaiting report cards-to you, dear Teachers and Administrators, with- out coercion, without thought of reward, we offer this bit of appreciation for this year of fun, friendship, and funda- mentals.

East High School's exemplihcation of a democracy in action, K. D. Waldo, super- intendent of schools, thinks is a highlight of the year. Without an intelligent citizenry, a de- mocracy cannot succeedg hence, our public schools. East High School represents true democracy in action. Here, all are on an equal basis, rich and poor, jew and Gentile. One cannot learn democracy from a text- book. East High exemplifies democracy in action with many opportunities for student activity and leadership. Long may this continue so that gradu- ates may take their place successfully in the vocations and social institutions of the United States. 46 Zuma .ag 5 ' Ma fg... 35. W' 'W mamma, Events of significance this year, according to Dr. J, W. Gates, principal, are the oc- cupancy of the new machine shop and the dedication of R. E. Davis Athletic Field. The opening of school in September found Fast High School ready to occupy the new machine shop provided by the Fed- eral Wcvrks Agency as an educational op- portunity for returned veterans. High school boys are enrolled in classes during school hours. On September 12 the community united in honoring their long-time athletic director, R. F. Davis. On that date the athletic held, developed from the beginning lry Mr. Davis, was formally dedicated to him. These two events initiated a busy and successful year. DR. J. W.

Apparently this was the pet expression of the members of the Student Council who so suc- cessfully managed the cafeteria traf- lic during the past year. This is only one of the many projects that the Council undertook. Student busses for out of town games, outside artists for special convocations, pep-convos, Co-Hi's, help for the needy at home and abroad, Christmas baskets, Fifth- Quarter dances to earn funds for Seeds for Peace -all were effi- ciently handled. Under the guidance of Miss Veronica O'Neil they have worked hard this year through their own student government-to make de- mocracy in East High an even greater success. 6 STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICIERSSB.

Walldcm 'R With microscopes, models, and live speci- mens, students of biology learn about living organisms. The study of plants and animals is a popular subject around East High, per- haps because of the students' interest in the gruesome task of dissection. R. Glossop, R. Woodword, and D. Walush are intrigued by the microscopic world as seen through the magnifying lenses. The commercial program provides stu- dents interested in secretarial work an op- portunity to acquaint themselves with the business Held. Girls in advanced stenography are instructed in the various office machines. A. Blank is shown at the files, J. Cherwin, J. Carter, J. johnson at comptometers, and M. Sohan at the dictaphone. in eng and pzczctice Classes in social adjustments are concerned with personal and community problems. Stu- dents choose their own topics, work out the im- portant questions involved, and then proceed to get the needed information for class presenta- tion. L. Nally, P. Benson, C. Baker, Cherwin are discussing ways in which high school stu- dents can prepare for successful home member- ship. Lnglish classes emphasize the communication skills-reading, writing, speaking, listening. L. Cooper, W. Holmes, L. Glossop, and E. Mueller are recording their voices to learn their speech faults. To encourage reading, D. jeske, K. Edmeier, W. Chally, and C. Mueller are dis- playing book jackets and new books from the library during Book Week. In addition to studying the history of the United States, the American history classes study and discuss current events and social problems of the present time. Shown indicating on the map and on the globe the location of japan, the country being discussed in class, are D. Archer, C. Baum, R. Leifheit, and R. Eggestein. A stitch in time will save many dollars for girls who learn the art of converting a few yards of cloth into the new look. In the home economics depart- ment, the girls also learn how to plan and cook nutritious meals. M. Duindie, C. Benter, H. Todas, J. Schosseler, and S. Fourmont are executing the various phases of tailoring. R. Hanson, C. Douglas, C. Frisch, and C. Morey, advanced Spanish students, are shown discussing in Spanish their day's assignment. These daily group discussions, as they are carried on completely in Spanish, aid the student in ob- taining a practical speaking knowledge as well as a grammatical knowledge of the language. 21 NK ,ftflxfvif v-45 f rx A .iii-ci' Every year the art classes exhibit examples of the projects completed during that year.

White, instructor, B. Gain, E. Hennen, D. Hauer, and R. Miller are shown preparing to go for a training cruise. Though 56 are enrolled in the course, only four students are taken at one time for practice on the dual control car. 'fr wAmxnGC5' it T Y East High's new machine shop, located north- east of the main building, is offering a broader field of manual training to mechanically in- clined boys. Eventually j5100,000 will be spent for equipment which will further train the stu- dents to operate machines. R. Kunold, instruc- tor, and A. Wilson are working on the Monarch lathe machine. F. Cozzoni, R. Strejc, and D. Davis, members of the electricity I class, are shown putting heat- ing elements in electric toasters which they are assembling. Members of the electricity II class have built radio receiver sets as their project. These classes meet in the new worlcroom, which is in the machine shop building. Practical experience is gained in the printing classes where students learn the art of typesetting and publications work. The boys print the Azzromzz and various other projects, including programs for school activities, athletic schedules, and office supplies. At the stapling machine is P. Breyneg at the press, D. Sawitoski and L. Klimpke. 9 Students of the machine shop course are taught evaluation of machinery and care of property. Equipment includes lathes, drill presses, milling machine, shaper, surface grinder, electric welder, and gas welder. Swanson, D. Murphy, D. Buck, and G. Leden, members of the course, are shown operating individual driven lathes. Amid the hum of planets, the buzz of saws, and the pounding of hammers, general shop stu- dents create bookcases, occasional tables, cabinets in Duncan Phyfe, Hepplewhite, and modern styles. Such work won honors in state competia tion many times. A. Moga, Zelazny, R. Speights, and R. Shur are shown with their work.

We were only freshmen, but to us it sounded pretty good. Remember our bewildered looks when we discovered that we weren't the only pebbles on the beach? Yes, we were the small fry, the ones who got lipstick smeared on our faces and wore the big green bows during bow week. In spite of all this we advanced and soon became sophomores. As sophomores we got those growing pains and decided that this year the freshmen would look up to us. We started on the road to fame by adding extra-curriculars to our programs and becoming big activity people! Besides all this, our social life started developing. We decided to be bold and speak to that slick chick and smooth joe at whom we'd been slyly glancing. Aha, jaunty juniors at last! We deserted 209 for 107 and perhaps occupied our minds with things other than math and chemistry. We had our own class officers and best of all, a basket- ball team that was one of the sweet sixteen. Weren't we proud? We began to take our parts in productions just like professionals. We sponsored a dance and junior carnival, both of which were a big success. june came and we knew that the next time we set foot in East High it would be for the home stretch. Now we were the monarchs. Although it was a good feeling, we didn't know quite so many kidsg but they knew us 'cause we were seniors. Oh, there were lots of things to be in: the class play, variety show, minstrel, and a number of student convos. We had grown a little in mind as well as stature. Now it is all over, but we thank you, East High, for all these wonderful times.

As the story opens, Meg, jo, Beth, and Amy are left in care of the housekeeper, Hannah Mullet, and a neighbor, Mr. Lawrence, while Marmee goes to Mr. March, a chaplain in the army, ill in Vifashington. Father March recovers and jo's writings are published through the infiuence of Teddy Lawrence, the boy next door who is in love with jo. Refusing Teddy's love, jo spends much time with Professor Frederick J. Balthazar, Beth, C. Frisch, Mrs. March, C, Marcley, Aunt March. Aunt March relents and give Marmee the necessary money. Christmas won't be Christmas without any presents -and neither would any year be com- plete without the senior class play. The well- known Little XXfomen was presented by a double cast on December 4 and 5 under the direction of Miss Irene Stubbins. Rosalind Fri- man and Marion Wilkinson assisted in the Bhaer and devotes herself to Beth whose health is declining. Meanwhile Meg marries john Brooke, Teddy's tutor, causing Aunt March to disown her. Wlien Meg's twins are born, Beth finds rest at last, and jo becomes completely enwrapped in her writing. Teddy finally realizes that patiently-waiting Amy is the one whom he really loves. Profes- sor Bhaer finds the courage to ask Jo to marry him, and all ends well. Little Yx7omen cast-F. Neiser, Mr. Lawrence, M. Chambers, I.. Hanny, Hannah, O. Olsen, jog R.

A typical day at East High begins at the lockers in the morning. 1. Marie White and Elaine Tarble are greeted at their lockers by Gerry Dunn and Ken Fay. Looks as if the boys had been up to some mischief, doesn't it? 2. A first hour library period always comes in handy for making up the homework for sleepj you missed the night before. 3. The manual training classes are popular with the fellas. Could Robert the Robot be the attraction? 4. Speech class always proved to be interesting when someone else had to give a talk. 5. Beware of the mad dash students make for the cafeteria at 12:00, but then, the food looks well worth rushing for. 6. Putting out an issue of the Auroran wasn't so easy a job as the journalism class thought it might be, was it, kids? Ask Bonnie Swartz, Larry Lawson, Frances Miksa, Dianne Gerhardt, and Carol Buckendahl. 7. Wliy, oh why, did I ever take geometry? Especially eighth hour! 8. One thousand one, one thousand two, one thousand three-why doesn't that bell ring? 9. Move to the rear of the bus please. At last the homeward trek begins.

Never a dull moment, could easily describe the Girls' Club program this year. Big sisters took their freshie sisters under their wings at the freshmen teas in October and February. Danse de Recolte, a harvest dance, was presented in Novemberg the Empty Stocking Fund Christmas party in December was next on 1 l an if the calendar of events for the girls. The semester's end found Darle Hansen, JoAnn Baker, and Frances George replacing Barbara Hinckley, Olene Olsen, and Los Hanny. Miss Veronica O'Neil was the club adviser. Bow week, the annual P.T.A. Girls' Club card party, and Ivy Day completed the activities. Once again the East High Boys' Club, advised by L. Hunter, enjoyed a year of varied events, promoted by the club to encourage friendship among the boys. Shortly after the opening of school, the club cooperated with other school organizations by help- ing to put over the annual Magazine Drive. The club received a one-fourth share of the profits from the sales. October 24 and january 30 were the dates of the biannual parties. The latter was highlighted by a closely fought basketball game between the seniors and the senior all-stars, a group of gradu- ating varsity basketball players. The all-stars were crowned victors by a score of 35-50. Shortly before the change of semesters, the Boys' Club secured a speaker for one of the special con- vocations. The guest artist, Mr. C.

Announcement of the 1948 Speculum editors by Mrs. Caroline Schick, faculty adviser, started the creaking of craniums in the annual attempt to originate some idyllic ideas for East High's year- book. Thereafter lengthy confabs, well-laid plans, and frenzied revisions went on in room 122, home of the Spec editors. The photography editor and her staff spent many days scheduling photographs, checking identifica- tions, trimming and mounting pictures, and then sending the treasured parcels on their journey to the engraver. However, it was far from all work and no play, for the more humorous activity shots furnished many a gleeful moment. After the preliminary layout of pictures and copy, the stories, previously assigned, started roll- ing in and the literary editor and her staff really began to buzz about-reading, re-reading and re- writing material, checking all captions, and proof- ing every bit of copy to be sent to the printer. 72 yew: an Me makin The material in the To be typed box was soon overflowing, so activity began for the manuscript editor and her typists. All idle typewriters were quickly manned. Clean copy, the staff's goal, was later handed over to the editor-in-chief to be proof- read and approved. All business transactions were taken care of by George Woolley, faculty adviser, the business ed- itor, and her helpers. Spec-ulative Aurora business men made the Patron Drive a success by adding their names to the list of sponsors. Class Day cli- maxed the work of the business staff, for dis- tributing the yearbooks on that day was the last big task. Throughout, there were days of near-miracles and days of near-catastrophe. The whole picture section nearly went up in smoke in the Chapman Block fire. The sanity of the staff was taxed by the trials and tribulations of putting out their book. But regardless of the state of sanity of the staff and the editors, here's your book! EDITORS+B. Swartz, manuscriptg C. Braun, literary, C. Lewis, photography. BUSINESS STAFF, Standing-C.

Where's all my copy P Such is the hue and cry of the editors of the greatest little paper in circulation, the Eart High Amfomzz. The specific time when this moan is the loudest is when deadlines roll around, which they do with annoying regularity every two weeks. Yes, the page-planning, news covering, story assigning, copy-reading, and page-proofing are more than a full-time job for the four page- editors. The secretary, and circulation and asso- ciate editors have their hands full, too, writing columns, taking care of the exchange service, and keeping up statistics. With R. E.

The next event on a full and busy calendar was the biennial Variety Show.

While Watching the smoothly running gala performance, one would never know what moans, and mishaps went into the completion of the script and staging. Rounding out the busy year was the annual A111'01'1111 banquet held in May. At that time the new editors for the coming year were announced, and Quill and Scroll awards were presented to seniors for outstanding journalistic work. AURORAN EDITORS-C. Marcley, secretary, M.

Any fifth hour of the week, you can hear the strains of music floating down from the fourth floor. It may be anything from Beethoven to Berlin, because in this class students play all types of music and so are taught instrumental techniques.

Then the music department staged an operetta, In Old St. Louis, for which the orchestra played the ac- companiment. The group also played for sev- eral special student programs including the Christmas pageant and the Easter convocation. The junior class play and the style show were also events on the orchestral calendar. On April 26, members of the orchestra, chorus, and band traveled to Elgin for the annual Fox Valley Music Festival. This year the festival or- chestra, composed of representatives sent from fl The music department presented a special convocation to the students and P.T.A. in january. The main feature of the program was an orchestral arrangement of the story of Ferdinand the Bull. Ferdinancls theme was played by three members of the base viol section: C. Douglas, B. Shepard, and M. Hensley. mcwqayb ced ten schools of the Fox Valley region, was con- ducted by Tauno Hanni Kainen, assistant direc- tor of the Chicago Symphony orchestra. Another activity for small groups of the or- chestra this year was the playing of chamber music. Small instrumental ensembles of four or live students practiced this type of music during the sixth hours. Music for such groups is written in compara- tively independent parts for a few performers, with but a single performer to each part. Such playing is a definitely different experience from the usual self-preoccupation of the soloist, who commonly assumes that the accompanist must follow him, and of the orchestra member, who almost inevitably is so immersed in the playing of his section that he hears little more than the part he is playing. This spring Mr. Langlitz and five members of the orchestra attended the annual String Confer- ence at Champaign, Illinois. The conference was sponsored by the University of Illinois school of music.

Sadwldcwd To the strains of the graduation recessional, the East High band completed its final public performance of the year-a successful ending to a successful season. The usual jobs-such as playing for home games, pep convos, the Min- strel, and the Memorial Day parade-were done with the usual dispatch leaving just enough time for other necessary and enjoyable activities in which the band participated. During the football season, bystanders wit- nessed the colorful marching formations super- vised by V. Trotto, director. A novel effect was produced when the new colored flares on the band members' hats were lit to illustrate the number being played. The first formal concert held on October 17 was presented for the Northern Illinois Teachers Association. At this time the band arrangement of Grieg's Concerto in A Minor was presented for the second time in this country. ftdltlfdfdfddddltd December 7 was the date of the annual fall concert. This was the first Sunday concert ever attempted, but since it proved so successful, it is contemplated that it will be tried again in the future. Next on the calendar of events were the district and state solo and ensemble contests held April 3 in Calumet City, and May 1 in Peoria. Members of the band also participated in the Fox Valley Music Festival at Elgin, April 26. The annual spring concert, consisting of classical and light numbers, was presented April 30. Once again the annual Minstrel Show came and left to the strains of Minstrel Days are Here Again, and, When The Midnight Choo- Choo Leaves for Alabamf' Sponsored by the band and Boys' Club, this thirteenth annual pro- duction secured a complete sell-out for its three night run, and therefore, profits reached an all- time high. l .

In Old St. Louis, a colorful operetta, was presented by the music department under the di- rection of Miss Margaret Pouk and Vincent Langlitz on November 12, 15, and 15. The story takes place in romantic St. Louis in the days of the chivalrous South. Donna DeLiza, the daughter of a wealthy French fur trader, falls in love with George Rogers Clark. Wheim Donna's father hears of this affair, he challenges Clark to a duel. Donna, seeking to prevent the duel, is captured by Callotte, a notorious river pirate. Mimi, the pirates sweetheart, hears of Callotte's prize and in a jealous rage betrays Callotte and aids Clark and Daniel Boone in rescuing Donna DeLiza forgives Clark for the past and all ends happily. adam!

This service group, whose activities are planned, taught, and directed by Miss Lulu Bredlow, has grown in size from one to four classes in the past year. The members in these classes learn proper stage technique not only useful to the prima donna, but essential to smoothly run back-stage operations as well. Some of the original programs highlighting the year were a ballet entitled UA Day at East High, The School Paper, clarifying the ac- tivities of the Auroran, a Spanish Fiesta commem- orating Pan-American Day, and an educational program A Day at Court, dealing with teen- age traffic accidents. l Students portraying Christmas in different lands from the Christmas Pageant: Back Row-G.

Y-Teens, Hi-Y, and Hi-C build Christian char- acter and encourage fellowship and understand- ing among the young people of East High. If you are a girl, chances are that you are a member of Y-Teens, a branch of the Y.W.C.A. The Y, which had been temporarily closed be- cause of fire damage, was the scene of such events as the style show, the spring formal, and the Father-Daughter Banquet. If you are a boy, you probably belong to the Hi-Y, a branch of the Y.M.C.A. The programs for the boys varied from interesting movies to timely lectures. Perhaps the most interesting meeting of the year was the joint get-together with the Y-Teens. The newest organization, although now almost two years old, is the Hi-C. This is a Christian fellowship group which meets during the noon hour. The group has had some of Aurora's most prominent Christian leaders to direct singing and Bible study during the year.

' 154 fawzckd The Profs Club was organized to enlighten stu- dents about ir1s and outs of the teaching profes- sion. During the past year the group held a Christ- mas luncheon, observed grade school teachers in ac- tion, and heard appropriate speakers. This club, advised by Miss Veronica O'Neil, has grown rapidly since its organization three years ago. Will Coma and Confusion please answer the roll! To this request Miss Dorothy Youngblood or Hubert Davis, advisers of Delphi, could comply, for they and members of the club conduct their meetings under pseudonymns. In an atmosphere of fun and nonsense, students learned parliamentary procedure and acquired ease in public speaking. The junior Red Cross, aided by the art classes, served others in various ways. Directed by Mrs. Leone Hawks, school nurse, the students have com- pleted these projects: greeting cards, stamp collec- tions, overseas boxes, and Christmas boxes. Cli- maxing their work, they held a dance to raise money for the National Children's Fund. 86 an no Library Science, a club composed of student li- brary assistants, was organized to acquaint students with the detailed work encountered in the manag- ing of the school library. Advised by Miss Delsie Allen, the club members obtain actual experience in this type of activity by spending many of their free periods in the duties of librarians. Wliile there are those students learning about the library, there are others who are earning while they are learning. Advised by J. C. Chrisman, these students are enrolled in the Distributive Education class. Being excused in the afternoons, each stu- dent is required to work fifteen hours a week to re- ceive full credit. For those students interested in the business field, the Commercial Club, advised by Miss Gertrude Pittz, offers many interesting programs. During the past year the club showed several helpful gui- dance films, and graduates of the commercial de- partment have returned to relate their actual ex- periences in the business world. ada LIBRARY 5ClENCFfK.

We should have compulsory arbitration of labor disputes in all basic industries. With this as the year's question, the debating squad, coached by Miss Dorothy Youngblood, success- fully competed in a heavy schedule of forensic events. Two highlights of the season were taking fourth place among twenty-seven teams at the Augustana College debate tournament and plac- ing second in the Big Eight Debate tournament at Elgin. The members of the varsity team were Frances George and Arlene Thomas on the affirmative with joe Cosgrove and Carolyn Werner as al- ternates, Lloyd Herold and Lyle Wimmergren on the negative. In the individual events of the Big Eight tournament, East High tied for first place. Vic- tor Furnish placed second with his original ora- tion, and Lyle Wimmergren second with his extemporaneous speech. The varsity squad demonstrated its ability by presenting a debate for the P.T.A. and another for the students. In the latter discussion, joe Cosgrove, Carolyn Werner, jim Harris, and Reuben Pemberton also participated. During the course of the season, each of the twenty debaters was given the opportunity to participate in at least one tournament, which consisted of three or four debates. DEBATE SQUAD, Back RowfR.

Movies such as Treasure Island and A Tale of Two Cities were shown to the English classes. The language, psychology, industrial arts, cooking, social and physical science depart- ments also enjoyed a variety of films. The senior vocational films answered many of our problems and questions.

Thus, after a few months' training given both during the sixth period and after school, the club members contributed to the visual edu- cation of East High students. An average of fourteen movies a week were projected. The Projector Club has been of real service to the school, putting originality and va- riety in our studies. The Science Club, also under the supervision of R. E. Stutz, included chemistry and physics students with the purpose of furthering their interests in this field. PROJECTOR CLUB OF- FICERS-R.

In the Big Eight conference the team finished in a tie for fifth and sixth place. The gridmen played two outstanding games. Against their crosstown rivals, West High, the Cats battled on a slippery, snow-covered field. At the end of the game neither team had been able to puncture the other's defense for a score. Playing at Bloom against a team rated by many as one of the best in the state, the Tomcat gridders took an early lead and held on to it, winning the game 7-6. ln other conference games the Cats won their first two games, defeating Elgin 12-6 and Freeport 12-0. After these games East High dropped four straight league tilts. Their first con- ference defeat came at the hands of West Rockfordls War- riors by the count of 13-6. East's next loss was to the high riding Cavaliers from LaSalle-Peru 19-0. The Tomcats lost their following contests to East Rockford 14-6 and Joliet 25-0. 92 , Cadets, the jayvees won two tilts from them, 12-O and 25-6. The squad traveled to Amboy and lost 26-0.

Though they finished the 1947 grid cam- paign with no wins notched to their record, they gained a year of valuable experience to mold a future frosh-soph crew. The Kittens bowed to joliet's Steelmites twice and to Marmion once. They salvaged a tie in the second outing with this cross-town foe. Entering each contest greatly outweighed, the scrappy out- lit nevertheless set up a tight defense which was hard to penetrate. They also executed their plays effectively. East managed to top several scrim- mages with the junior High squad. The frosh-soph eleven next year will be built around three star freshmen who earned letters with the frosh-soph this year. It will further be bolstered by the gridders who gained experience this year on the freshman team. With this nuclear strength, Mr. Mouw predicts that the 1948 frosh- soph should be a strong Big Eight title contender. Though the squad elected no permanent cap- tain, an acting captain was chosen for each game. Paul johnson. Tom Kleinfeldt, Gordon Webster, and Charles Handell acted in this capacity during the season. J. W. Mouw, Coach of the freshman football squad. FRESHMAN SQUAD, Back Row-J. W. Mouw, coachg D.

Big Fight Conference play, while winning four and losing seven in non-conference competition.

Geneva eliminated East in the I madly A 4 first game of the Regional Tournament at West High 54-42. One of the most notable victories for the Tom- cats was their conquest of West High early in the season by a score of 43-40. This was one of the two losses suffered by West during the entire Big Eight Conference play. The junior-varsity also played a nine game sched- ule and, though their record was not too impressive., it did give the future varsity players a great deal of experience. Their most decisive victory was over Geneva, which they won 62-20. Cecil May coached the varsity and junior-varsity and has hopes for an experienced group of juniors next year to place East among the top ranking teams.

In Big Eight Con- ference play, where they finished in a tie for fifth place, they compiled a record of four wins and six losses. In non-conference competition their record showed three won and four lost. Their 52-50 win over Dundee early in the season was probably one of their best games. Several weeks later they defeated West High on East's home court 55-32. East closed the Big Eight Conference play by decisively defeating Elgin 45-52, after Elgin had won an earlier game 56-55. Wlieatori undoubtedly provided the stiff- est opposition of the year when they defeated East 58-50 in the last game of the season. ' ' ,cadtka dow! The past season proved to be somewhat of an exception in that the team was not affected through mid-year graduation as usually has been the case in former years. Under Coach Cliff Roberts direction, members of the team gained valuable experience that will prove helpful when they face varsity com- petition next year. The freshmen this year were coached by Donald Calame of junior High. In a schedule of 13 games, they won four and lost nine. Interest among the boys ran very high and of the twenty to twenty-five boys that regularly reported to practice, twenty-two finished the season. Among the teams played this year were Joliet. Marmion, XXf'est High, and Junior High. FRIZSHMAN BASKETBALI., Back Row---D. L. Calame, Coachg -an Q 'Nfl C. VI, Robert, Frosh-Soph Coach. D. I.. Calamc, Freshman Coach. C. Benson, D, Reed, R.

Thus, with re- newed vigor from summer vacation the Girls' Ath- letic Association, with its aim to instill the ideals of good sportsmanship among its members, began this year's wide range of sports activities. After the humorous installation of the new of- ficers, the typical fall sports became the interest of the feminine sportsters, Large groups of girls at- tended the tennis and bowling sessions, managed by Betty Ann Ferguson and Theodora Stinson. One of the early undertakings of G.A.A., before their attention was focused upon basketball, was the sponsorship of a fifth-quarter dance after the Joliet- East Aurora game. The basketball games, because of their popularity, were pushed ahead of schedule with Barbara Hinckley as manager. After general practice, tournament games were scheduled and healthy competition among the girls was at an all- time high.

' 4 Tumbling offered an opportunity for the more energetic G.A.A. members to shine. The girls dis- played their talents in this field during a student convocation and also during a Parent-Teacher Asso- ciation meeting. Early in December volleyball games were organ- ized by Carol Hubbard, manager. These contests were held once a week in the gym at noon and proved to be very popular among the girls. Seventy-live awards were given to G.A.A. mem- bers during the honor convo by Miss Mardelle Mohn, adviser of the organization. These were awarded on a point system established by the state organization. To qualify for the red and black num- erals, a girl must have earned 600 points in health and sport activities. For her red and black letter A she must have 1200 points, for the state I, 1600 points, and for the highest award, the state map, 2000 points. Under the leadership of Miss Mohn, a well- balanced calender of athletic activities was offered to the girls during this past year. 107 G.A.A. Basketball-A, Martin, D. Dunlop, E. Augustine N.
