Discovery through Experimentation To realize the complexities of change, and to react to each change intelligentlyg this is the meaning of the study of science. In today's ad- vancing, burgeoning society, the need for such realization is apparent. The students of East High have been fortunate enough to study science in well-equipped, highly technical surroundings un- der the guidance of skilled teachers. Under the direction of Mr. Goodwin, our Science Department has guided hundreds of students toward the ful- fillment of their goal: a knowledge of order and reality in a chaotic, active world.

Encouraging the Use of Logic One of the most important attributes of the thoughtful, aware person is the ability to think and reason logically. Mathematics provides a sound basis for the development of this ability. Through subjects such as Algebra, Geometry, and Trigo- nometry, we learn the techniques involved in working from specific facts to general conclusions. The Mathematics Department at East High School, ably headed by Mr. Crane, has instilled these techniques in countless numbers of students. It has enabled all of them to develop skills in reasoning which will be invaluable to them in the future.

Wu 1' ,nu- ns ' Y ART-Sitting: Mr. Berry. Standing: Mr. Hughes, Mr. Melka, Mr. Deutscher. The desire to create, to express oneself through invention is inherent in the human personality. This desire is particularly apparent in youth and may be aptly fulfilled through art. At East High, our Art Department has enabled our students to express themselves freely in this medium. Mr. Melka, the department head, and a highly creative staff have aided them immensely in this effort. Art Takes Nlany Forms East High boasts one of the finest music departments in the county. Accoustically sound surroundings, a wide assortment of music, and a team of talented instructors: each of these provides East High's students with the opportunity to enjoy music at its best. We can be proud of the fact that our school is a showcase for such ability. The faculty of the Music Department merits our thanks for their diligent and patient work.
