Just as we found and changed East, we have also left it. Each of us went away a year older, perhaps more mature, and thankful for the experiences we encountered. This year has influenced each of us in many ways. From our teachers and friends, we gained knowledge and insight; from our activities we gained experience. When the sophomores came, they may have been dedicated to their previous school, but when they departed, they were a part of East. No longer the low men on the totem pole, they await the new- year when they become more in- volved in the school. The junior class left looking forward to, and anticipating their new roles as leaders. They are the link between the past year and the upcoming one. With much regret and yet eagerly awaiting the future, the senior class left and joined the honored ranks of the alumni. Many times they will look back at their years at East and share their experiences. Open scheduling, the new student center, and boys ' and girls ' basketball marked 1974 as a year of change. But one thing that never changes is the spirit of East High. It is shown daily by the students at this school. It is our determination that makes East the best school in Des Moines. The student body kept the traditions of East alive and left new ones for future generations to follow. We left, but many memories remain.

School resumed in September, and with the new year came many revisions. The first of these revisions was open scheduling. For the first time in many years students were allowed to choose the classes and teachers they wanted. Counselors were present to aid and supervise them in their selection. Remodeling began on the new student center. A juke box and tape recorder were purchased and a television set was made available for the students ' use. Ice cream and candy were also sold during the study periods. Alterations were also made during basketball season when girls ' varsity games were played on the same night as boys ' varsity games. The sophomore boys ' and girls ' basketball games were played on Monday nights. Above right: In the new student center, study hall isn ' t all study, as shown by seniors Debbie Ingham and Don Bush.
