Jan. ’45 EXODUS MISS ETHEL L. GILLIN DEDICATION We, the graduating class of January, 1945, wish to dedicate this book to Miss Ethel L. Gillin, former teacher of English at East. Not only her homeroom but the entire senior class has missed her kindly and dignified presence, her wavy white hair, smiling blue eyes, and her friendliness. Miss Gillin first came to East in 1919 as a physical education instructor. She has devoted twenty-five long and faithful years to teaching at East and retired—we hope not permanently— in October, 1944, because of poor health. We sincerely hope this book will recall to her pleasant mem- ories of our class, of the years she spent here and of the senior homeroom she had to give up. 5

ADMINISTRATION Jan. ’45 EXODUS I want to take this opportunity to express the appreciation and affection of the entire faculty, including myself, to the class of January, 1945. You have been helpful and loyal. I hope the years to come will be increasingly kind to you and that our friendship will continue over these years. Emmet E. Smeltz, Principal You may not have learned all the lessons your school had for you to learn, but that you have mastered enough of them to make you more nearly aware of what ought to go into your to- morrows is our hope. Grace A. Martin, Assistant Principal Your country has been at war during all the three years you have been at East High School. This was has necessitated many adjustments at home and in school. You have made these ad- justments well enough to complete your high school education. This, in itself, is an excellent tribute to all the fine people in your graduating class. J. J. Stillinger, Assistant Principal 7
