COLOR GUARD w 1: Glorea Fought, Darlene Deter, Margaret Klix, Maxine McClain. COLORFUL ADDITIONS D1ii'i?f.,.l '2QR Let us visualize the period between halves at a football game. Flags fly, batons twirl, and whistles blow as down the field comes the band. Marching in front is the resplendent color guard carrying the United States flag and the East High banner. These four girls create an impressive sight as they bear the colors. Our eyes next catch the sight of our high- stepping drum major, Harlan Gee, who con- ducts the band in their formations. He makes a stirring picture with his white-plumed hat. Gazing on we behold the seven majorettes in flaming scarlet and white. They make a pleasing scene as they twirl their batons through the air. The skill of these three colorful additions is the result of much practice. MAJORETTES A 4 Sw 1 W . Q . J ai?

MOVIE OPERATORS Row 1: Jack Chinn, Bob Darrah, Austin Greider: Row 2: Rich- aid Bevan, Dick Peterson. Q Movie Operators While the other students are enjoying the movie, behind the scenes the operators are faithfully performing their duties. They not only operate the noon movie but also films that are shown in the classrooms. Their services are much appreciated by the students of our school. Miss Helmreich's Messengers Every period several girls leave study hall for the purpose 'of collecting absence slips from all the classrooms. The absence slips are then put in the teachers' boxes. The first hour messengers must also gather the attendance records and deliver them to the advisers. We thank these groups for their service. ELECTRICIANS Dick Peterson, Jack Chinn, Richard Bevan, Bob Darrah. Electricians One group that is not viewed by the public but which deserves much credit is the electri- cians who are using their skill to assist the school. Under the direction of Mr. Wilbur Yount they are responsible for the lighting ef- fects of the programs given throughout the year. Stagehands and Movie Helpers The stagehands under the supervision of Mr. Yount take care of the stage settings used for different events throughout the semester. The movie helpers are girls who collect the money and act as monitors. Everyone wants to thank these two hard working groups for a job well done.

CLUB PRESIDENTS One of the most enjoyable extra curricular activities is being a member of a club. Every student has the opportunity of joining two or- ganizations, a mixed club, and a boys' and girls' club. Each one has a teacher as an ad- viser who guides them in their numerous proj- ects. A great deal of the success of a club is due to the ability and leadership of its officers.
