Two bits, four bits, Six bits, a dollar, All for East High Stand up and holler,” OUR class has a lot to holler about! Many of the boys became members of East's various sports teams. The girls got into the swing of things by their participation in after-school intramurals. Shelby started his athletic career by joining the track squad as a shot-put contender when he was a 10B. Others enlisting with him on the team were Bob Riley, Don Sper- off, George Kilbane, Bill Ebiharaand Bill Aurelius. Brightest spot in the track and football outlook is the availability of 10B Shelby (Man Mountain) Kellogg for the next three years, stated a Blue and Gold sports writer. Only member of our class to take a berth on the base- ball team was 10B pitcher, Lou Syroney. In that year, 1952, the Blue Bombers, under the leadership of Coach Earl Ocker, jf John Rebar Dash Champion competed at Columbus for the state title, losing to Cin- cinnati Central 7-1. However, the team came back with a lot of determina- tion, enough to capture the East Senate championship from Collinwood, 4-2. Next came the see-saw battle for the Cleveland Sen- ate title against powerful West High. For eleven innings our determined Bombers showed their championship form by winning 5-4. The season ended with an impressive 17-2 record. When the 1952 football season rolled around, three of our 10A boys earned places on the squad; Bob Stepanovich, end; George Kilbane, center; and Shelby Kellogg, tackle. Who could forget the Senate opener with East Tech when Bob scored the final touchdown after receiving a 25 yard pass ! The Scarabs lost 37-l3. When the Senate schedule ended, the roster showed 2 wins, 3 losses, and one tie. This was the last season during which Thomas Corbo coached the team . In his place came Paul Anderson who had a reputation for producing rugged grid squads . Another new coach for the team was Line-Coach Anthony Ventresca. During the '52-'53 track season, John Rebar, 1 IB, joined the ranks of thinclads. He became another bright spot, along with Shelby, in the track spotlight. Shelby took third place in the shot-put event at the arena by putting the shot 48 feet 10 1 2 inches. The track team, under the watchful eye of Coach Karl Bauer, placed third in the arena meet. llA’s Bill Pastis and Leland Hall joined the other members of our class already on the football team as tackles in 1953. But even with five of our boys playing under the coach- ing of Paul Anderson, we had a record of one win, four losses, and one tie. In the basketball season of '53-’54, we succeeded in placing two 12B's on the squad in the persons of Lee Hall, center; and Lou Syroney, guard. Under Coach Gene Krakowiak, the team came up with a record of 8 wins against 6 losses. 20
