Mr. A. J. Burton F ANY organization is to run smoothly, it must have someone to supervise its affairs. This task is capably handled at East high school by our principal, Mr. A. I. Burton. There is no greater booster for East high's activities than Mr. Burton, and he enthusiastically encour- ages our enterprises. Mr. Burton is fully aware of the responsibility his position has, and in all of his decisions the best interests of our school and of the surrounding community are foremost in his thoughts. The senior class of Iune, 1933, will remember Mr. Burton,s guidance and will undoubtedly always appreciate his influence on their lives. N l l 1 l

Mr. O. G. Prichard AST high's vice principal, Mr. Prichard, has a friendly 'attitude and manner which at all times make him highly admired and respected by the student body as a whole. I-Ie believes in the students and they in turn put their faith in him. He holds a position that is hard to fill-that of boys' adviser-one requiring the happy corn- bination of many talents. I-lis wise counsel and unquench- able optimism have led many a wandering boy aright and helped more than one out of his difhculties. East high realizes a recognized need for Mr. Prichard. His warm smile and quiet skill along with his athletic interest seem to create a spirit of enthusiasm in athletics and deepen the channels of academic desire and widen the horizons of all the students. East high without Mr. Prichard would not be East high.

She is a cheerful person who always gives us a helpful word in our perplexities and who always offers a willing hand in our dilliculties. During her years of serv- ice in East high she has made many friends among the girls because she is glad in our successes and she sympathizes in our failures. Miss Helmreich is fond of poetry and especially enjoys the poems of Edna St. Vincent Millay, Emily Dickinson, and other modern poets. In addition to being girls' ad- viser she teaches Bible history. Ahove all, Miss Helmreich is truly interested in what we are and in what we hope to be. Y Page Seven
