The January, l948, Quill is the result of the hard work of the staff who are senior English students recommended by the English teach- ers. The staff studies ideas and publishing plans the first part of the semester, then the theme is chosen, and the members are divided to work on the different sections of the book. This semester the Quill was headed by Mari- lyn Erickson, editor-in-chief, and Roger Har- tung, associate editor. Working on the separate sections were Bar- bara Kraus and Duane Ellis on Introduction and Advertising, Doris Beck, Tom Sundell, Jackee Gibson, and Wrennie Weir on Seniors, Bill Anderson, Vera Gleason, and Vona Ann Larson on Organizations, Lois Plummer and Jim Green on School Life, Arnold Lack and Milton Reese on Sports. John Crippen and John Nixon were the photographers, and Gretchen Gustafson was the typist. Fourth hour in room sixteen was a busy time when the students with the efficient help of Mr. Kenneth Stratton, editorial advisor, planned pages, wrote copy, took pictures, and did all else that goes into the making of the Quill. Besides Mr. Stratton, the advisors of the Quill are Harriet Macy, art, Charles Springate, business, and Lester Gabel, adver- tising. ,...x X . .-.: g , - ti- 1 Z at ,:. :fy V, MARILYN ERICKSON ROGER HARTUNG Editor-in-chief Associate Editor Y' .Q-W www QUILL AND SCROLL ADVISORS' Mr. Gabel, Mr. Stratton, Miss Macy, Mr. Springate. if E

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is the student govern- nent organization at East through which the tudent may voice his suggestions or com- ilaints. A student may do this by giving his uggestions to the representative of his home- oom. There is a representative and an alter- ate chosen for each homeroom at the begin- ing of the semester. The meetings are usually held once o week 1 room lll, about 2:50 p. m. Occasionally, Jecial meetings are held in room l2O at 8:20 . m. The Student Council is divided into commit- ees, such as Red Cross, Athletics, Building nd Grounds, and Public Entertainment. The :tivities of the semester included the P.T.A, Drive, Community Chest, and All-School Par- ties. Once again, our Student Council has done a fine job in governing East High. The offi- cers who were elected to lead the council this semester were Bill Evans, president, Dale Alam, vice-president, and Patty Anderson, secretary. All have served faithfully, as has each representative, for everyone realizes the importance of being a member of the Student Council. lt is one of the highest honors which our school offers. Miss Agnes Helmreich has stood by, giving advice, offering suggestions and keeping things running smoothly. Her co-operation is greatly appreciated by the Student Council. -ig..

All the students anxiously await each issue for the latest news of coming athletic, musical, dramatic, and social activi- ties. ln the editorials and human interest stories it keeps them informed about the interesting and unusual events that are always taking place throughout the school. The pic- tures, humorous stories, and opinion polls are additional features. The Scroll is published every other week by the second semester journalism students. Before the paper is ready to be distributed, much hard work must be done by the staff, under the direction, this semester, of Bob Hedlund, editor- in-chief and his associate editors, Dale Nystrom and Wen- dell Burbank. Most of this work is done during the fifth class period when pages are laid out, articles written and corrected, and pictures taken. When all this has been done, it is sent to the printers. Then on Friday the finished prod- uct is given to the subscribers. The factulty advisors are another important group who help to make our paper the fine one that it is, They are Mr. Kenneth Stratton, editorial, Miss Harriet Macy, art, and Mr. Charles Springate, business. aw 1: Dick Turner, Barbara Abbott, Tom Suridellp Row 2: Dale Nystrom, Jerry Graves, Clifford Layton, Orville King, Bob Peterson, aw.3: Wendell Burbank, Mary Anne Shocklcy, Marilyn Taylor, Francis Scott, Jackie Hines, Mavis Gustafson, Joann Kuenkel, Betty -nkins, Dolores Shaler, Bob Hedlund, -21..
