When the days were happy with sunshine, bright were the moments recorded. If shad- ows, perchance, fell upon us, dark were the threads of our motif. Shadows and sunshine together now blend into one finished pattern. This we pre- sent to East High School--our pattern of memories and friend- ships--the 1932 Specu1um. ll THIEIBO K ADMINISTRATION Faculty THE SCHOOL Seniors Underclassmen ACTIVITIES Clubs Arts Athletics i THE ITAFI: EDITH PERRIN MARGARET CURRY FRANCES EICHELBERGER KATHARINE HASSEIT ELLSWORTH DREW RUTH LoNo HARVEY GEIST ELMER ETZKORN ZALMON GOLDSMITH PAUL STAIB CONNIE CHOILES MARY ALICE CRANE RUTH BENZ FREDA KANNER MARIAN EISENHUTH ADMINIITIQATICN The Board Oi Education FRANK BIEVER, President' GEORGE L.

Each member of the Council represents a section, from which he was chosen by popular election. Class presidents, athletic captains, presidents of recognized clubs, and pub- lications editors, act as ex-officio members. During the last year, the Student Council's social functions included a Valentine Dance, the revival of Hopen-house, and the initiation of the freshmen entering the school in February. School improvement projects undertaken were Courtesy Week,', trafhc regula- tions, improved loclcer conditions, and the organization of a point system controlling student activities. iVIiss O'Neil, dean of girls, and hir. Hunter, dean of boys, acted as faculty ad- visors. Ofhcers for the first semester were President, Jack Kobelenz, Vice-President, Jack Connors, Secretary-Treasurer, Catherine Burkelg officers for the second semester were President, LeRoy Sebastian, Vice-President, Jesse Hardy, and Secretary-Treas urer, Bonnie Talley. The BOGTCT of C:Ol'lifI'Ol The Board of Control is made up of the athletic, debating, dramatics, and com- mercial coaches, the officers of the Athletic Association, the athletic director, the cap- tains of all teams, and the principal of East High. This student-faculty governing body sanctions, on recommendation of coaches, the students' rights to receive awards of letters and numerals, commercial awards, and awards to debaters. The group meets at the close of every athletic, debating, and commercial season to receive and approve the petitions for awards. These awards are given to the students in convocation later in the year. ' Officers for the year were President, Elmer Eckert, Vice-President, John Runberg, and Secretary, Bonnie Talley.

IENIUIQI The Senior Class History Four years ago, fate brought into the halls of East High a new class, fired with the ambition to achieve recognition. VVith three hundred and sixteen members, it was one of the largest classes to enter this high school. A .class wins recognition through co-operation, hard work, and outstanding in- dividuals. When such a large group has the opportunity to work together for four years, it is inevitable that leaders will develop in all the various fields of activity. The last two years of high school life necessitate picked leaders. for class activities. The Junior ofbcers were Curtis Petersohn, President, Charles Culver, Vice-President, and Anna Weisrnari, Secretary. As Seniors, the class chose Charles Culver, President, Ellsworth Drew, Vice-President, and Catherine Burkel, Secretary. In debate, Zalmon Goldsmith, Connie Choiles, Ralph Bjorseth, and Anna Weisman, found their outstanding places. Many students entered journalistic work as members of the Auroran staff, headed by the editor, Erma Swanee, and sports editor, Ralph Bjorseth. 1 i ' The wide field of activity called athletics always offers much opportunity for leaders and ability. Football had its Sebastian, four years an An man and a heavy- weight co-captain. Sullivan, Eckert, Petersohn, and Runberg were also UA men. Kobelenz, star of the tournament when a junior, Ostberg, and Walter, lightweight captain in his senior year, championed in basketball. Tennis put forth one outstand- ing star, Harvey Geist. The outstanding track men were Culver, White, and Devenney, the first two being co-captains in '3Z. The girls, too, were leaders in the activities of the school. The officers of the Girls' Club, elected when juniors, were Catherine Burkel, President, Grace Erickson, Vice-President, and Mary Alice Crane, Secretary-Treasurer. Winifred Brengle was president of the Girls' Athletic Association, and Emma Louise Boles served as presi- dent of the Silver Triangle. Scholastic records are, after all, the true achievement of an' institution of learning and mean a great deal to the students. Several students from the class of '32 have beenihonor roll students for four years: Bonnie Cortum, lklargaret Curry, Frances Eichelberger, Harvey Geist, Zalmon Goldsmith, Katharine Hassett, Ellen Jensen, Dorothy Langhammer, Edith Perrin, Dorothy Galbraith, Frances Stoffel, and Erma Swanee. With co-operation, two class plays were presented, The Perfect Alibi in the junior year, and Ladies of the Jury,', in the senior year. Despite financial depression, the class published a yearbook on its own resources, depending entirely on concessions, sales, dances, and other class promoted activities. Breaking the usual East High cus- tom, this class, because of its size, introduced a new form of commencement program at the athletic field. Thus, the journey is finished, our goal is reached. A band of three hundred and sixteen freshmen entered East High in 1928. Of those, two hundred and twenty-six remain to graduate and receive diplomas. Eager as we are to go on to new things, to enter the world and find new goals, we cannot help remembering the years in East High and the pleasures we have had together. Here's a wish of luck and success to the classes to come! , Fourtfen C. CULVRR C. BURKRL E. DREW SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS President ...... ........................... ....

During the last year, under the guidance of Miss O'Neil, dean of girls, the club has been active in upholding its standards. Its membership includes all girls in school. A cabinet, con- sisting of one member elected from each section, meets twice a month to formulate plans for the various projects of ther club. Officers for the first semester were Presi- dent, Catherine Burkel, Vice-President, Grace Erickson, Secretary-Treasurer, Nlary Alice Craneg dficers for the second semester were President, Bonnie Talley, Vice- President, lVIargaret Nix, and Secretary-Treasurer, Sylvia Lee. During the year, the club sponsored the following enterprises: In September and February, parties consisting of initiation programs in the audi- torium and dancing in the gymnasium were given to welcome the freshmen girls. About one hundred fifty needy children of Aurora attended the annual Christ- mas party in the gymnasium, December 24. The party was made possible by the Beacon News Fund. On March 8, the girls presented to the Parent-Teacher Association, a program demonstrating work done in the departments of sewing, domestic science, home hygiene, and physical training. Early in the spring, the annual clean-up campaign was staged, and lockers were given a thorough spring cleaning. The clubls activities were not confined wholly to school. A musical program was presented to the patients of Springbrook Sanitarium, and a plant was given to the Old Ladies' Home. Junior and senior girls active in school functions and of high scholastic standing represented the Girls' Club at the Chicago Suburban Girls' Conference, a yearly Girls' Club event. The conference was held on March 19, at Sterling lllorton High School. The Boys' Club The first Boys' Club in the history of the school was organized in 1931 for the purpose of developing a closer relationship and a better understanding among the students of the school, and to aid the boys in making the proper adjustments to the various problems confronting them. The club is composed of one member from each section of the school. At the first meeting, two committees were appointed, the nominating committee, composed of Herman Lee, chairman, Ferdinand Henning, Allison Ashbrook, VVilbur Golz, and Julius Rokopg and the Constitutional committee, composed of Charles Culver, chair- man, Frank Hawley, Norman Nelson, LeRoy Sebastian, and Robert Richards. Tem- porary ofiicers were chosen to act until the time of the election of permanent officers, Elmer Eckert acting as temporary President, and Walter Sullivan as Secretary. Although much of its time was taken up in organization, the Boys' Club was active in sponsoring the Christmas party, a special convocation program, and a stunt night for Dads The permanent ofiicers of the club, who were elected from the nominees by a popular vote of the boys of the school, were installed in office, Wednesday, April 13. Their term will extend to January, 1933. They are: President, William Fowler, Vice-President, Jack Connors, Secretary-Treasurer, William Kelly, and Sergeant- at-Arms, james McGlaughlin. Sixty C LU BS The Silver Triangle The Silver Triangle, under the direction of Mrs. Drake and Xliss Bertha Swear- ingen, the former and present Y Girl Reserve secretaries, and Nliss Dorothy Under- wood, has completed a successful year.

Officers for the year were President, Emma Louise Boles, Vice-President, Freda Kanner, Secretary, June Biehl, and Treasurer, Eva Logue. The Hi-Y Club The purpose of the Hi-Y Club is to create, maintain, and extend high standards of Christian character throughout the school and community. Its purpose is carried out through observing the four Cls, clean speech, clean scholarship, clean sports, and clean living. During the year, meetings were held eve1'y other Monday with a supper preceding each business session. Programs consisted of talks presented by prominent men of Aurora. The ofiicers in charge were President, Charles Culver, Vice-President, Harvey Geist, Secretary, Ralph Bjorseth, Treasurer, William Kelly, and Sergeant-ab Arms, Harvey llliller. E. B. Davis, of the Y. bl. C. A. and L. H. Geil were advisers. Each month, a Junior Kiwanian was elected to represent the club at the weekly meetings of the Kiwanis Club. The boys who had this opportunity were Williain Fowler, Harvey Geist, Cyril DuSell, Claude Nlaclntyre, James llIcGlaughlin, John Sperry, and Kenneth Sloan. Charles Culver and John Sperry represented the club at the State Older Boys' Conference at Decatur. On April 9 and 10, several members attended the Big Four Conference for older boys at Joliet, sponsored by the Hi-Y clubs of Elgin, -Ioliet, VVest Aurora, and East Aurora. Each city furnished one officer, Ralph Bjorseth, East Highis representative, acting as secretary. Klan Power, the theme of the conference, was clearly developed in a talk by Klr. Le Mon Clark Jr. ofthe Social Hygiene League in Chicago. Father Eligius VVeir, chaplain of the Joliet Penitentiary, told many incidents occuring in prison life. The conference closed with an address by Dr. Armin George Weng of Elgin. C. G. Thomson of Joliet spoke at the joint meeting of the Hi-Y clubs of East and VVest Aurora. The last meeting of the year was in the form of a Mother' and Son Banquet, hield Nfay 2. Sixfy-arm CLUBS The Girls' Commercial Club Any girl enrolled in the commercial department of East High is eligible to mem' bership in the Girls, Commercial Club. This year, ninety girls enrolled, and through- out the year enjoyed the interesting programs of the club. These programs were largely of an educational nature, giving the girls practical ideas of the business world for which they were preparing. The club assumed the responsibility of financing the shorthand and typing contest held in the spring. The yearys social activities consisted of a St. Patrickfs Day party, and the annual outing at the close of school in June. Miss Comiskey, the adviser, assisted by the following corps of officers, led the club through a successful year: first semester, President, Anna Weisman, Vice-Presi- dent, Vivian Kopp, Secretary-Treasurer, Ruth Benzg second semester, President, Ruth Benz, Vice-President, Freda Kanner, and Secretary-Treasurer, Edna Mae Rollins. The Flying Squadron Aeronautics has at last gained a respected position in the extra--curricular activities of East High. Any boy who enjoys and is interested in commercial aviation and model airplanes may enter the club when he has constructed a model whiich will fly ten seconds. Mr. Carlson is faculty adviser for the Flying Squadron. ln September of 1931 Julius Rokop was elected President, Clement Vickery, Vice-President, Ellsworth Drew, Secretary, and Kenneth Perrin, Treasurer. ln January Ellsworth Drew was elected President, Ivan Powers, Vice-President, Heinz Schaedler, -Secretary, and Wilbur Golz, Treasurer. Flying Squadron was very fortunate in having Stewart Varn, a licensed commer- cial transport pilot, with them as assistant adviser from September to February. Stewart was a great incentive for work and gave many interesting technical talks. A farewell party was given for Stewart the latter part of january when he left for his home in Florida. Donald Frazier, a local aviator, was the guest speaker. At the first of the year a clubroom was constructed in the attic. This room was used for building models and for meetings of the club. A library of technical books and aeronautic magazines was gathered from all possible sources. lVlany plans of modern planes were received from companies manufacturing popular ships in the United States. A supply shop where materials may be bought for models construction was established in Mr. Carlson's office. -l-he Library Round -l-able The Library Round Table was introduced into East High in 1930, under the leadership of Miss Allen, the school librarian. All students who have taken the library course are eligible for membership. The club serves a threefold purpose: first, it teaches the members about books and authors, second, it keeps them in touch with the school libraryg third, the members help to make the library of greater service to the school by directing other students in their use of the library. At the regular meetings, programs consisting of book reviews, informal author-title spell-downs, and discussion of modern authors are presented. Officers for the first semester were President, VVilliam Boorkman, Vice-President, Qrise Hill, Secretary-Treasurer, john Simpson, Officers for the second semester were President, Kathryn Reichertz, Vice-President, Shirley Yageman, and Secretary-Treas- urer, Beryl Ball. S ixt y-tiwo CLUBS .Junior Delphi Due to the growing popularity of Delphi, a sister organization was instituted in September for the purpose of familiarizing freshmen and sophomores with parliamen- tary procedure, thus preparing them for membership in Senior Delphi.

Junior Delphi has progressed well in its infancy. Regular meetings, held every Thursday, consisted of parliamentary drill, debates, current topics, and extemporaneous speeches. Junior Delphi was responsible for one football pep meeting, featuring an Amos'n Andy skit. lt aided Senior Delphi in presenting the Block Trial, and also partie cipated in the annual Delphian banquet. The assistance of Ralph E. Blackman, critic and adviser, has been invaluable to Junior Delphi in its beginning year. Senior Delphi Delphi is one of the oldest and most progressive clubs in East High School. Its purpose is to acquaint students with parliamentary law, and to give them training in speaking before an audience. Delphi is accomplishing its purpose in a very practical manner. The members of this organization enjoy the weekly meetings and co-operate in every way when called upon to take part in the variety of programs prepared by the cabinet. The biennial Mock Trial given by Delphi was held in the early spring. It was in the form of a breach of promise suit, furnishing enjoyment as well as instruction in court procedure to all taking part. A capacity crowd attended, making it one of the most successful events staged by Delphi. The annual Delphian banquet and dance was also a great success. lt was attended by both students and alumni of the organization. This event closed the Delphian year in an excellent manner. Officers for the first semester were President, slack Koblenz, Vice-President, Anna VVeisman, Secretary, Orise Hill, Treasurer, Allison Ashbrook, and Sergeant-at-Arms, William lloorkmang officers for the second semester were President, Harvey Geist, Vice-President, Harold Schoberlin, Secretary, lllargaret Nix, Treasurer, LeRoy Schiltz. and Sergeant-at-Arms, Claude lliiaclntire. Delphi has been under the direction of lWr. Jay L. Hunter for several years and it is through his untiring efforts that Delphi is a successful organization of today. Dfdmd For three years, a Drama Course has been given in East High. This year, one- act sketches were studied and given by students. The student directors, chosen by lvliss Bredlow, picked their casts and property men, and presented their plays after three weeks' rehearsing. The class presented a one-act play, Suicide, at the C. M. Bardwell School, and at the Baptist Church, an adaptation of The Birds' Christmm Carol, at the annual Christmas party, an original sketch at the Auroran Variety Show, and Ozma of Oz at the Childrenis Theater of the C. Nl. Bardwell School. In addition to these plays, the students learned of past and present actors, actresses, and producers, and studied the history of drama from ancient to modern times. Sixty-tllrezr CLUBS The fAXtl'I2Fld2Um This year has been one of the most successful in the history of the Athenaeum. During the meetings, which were held on the last Wednesday of each month, pro- grams depicting different Latin interests studied in class were presented. One of the Il10St interesting programs of the year was a dramatization of the life of the gods and goddesses on Nlt. Olympus. Outstanding among the achievements of the year is the Res Latinae, published by a staff chosen from the Cicero class. Here are found selections of the best student articles of the year. The officers who were elected this year were President, Connie Chioles, Vice- President, Connie Clare, and Secretary-Treasurer, Margaret Curry. lVIisses Galbraith and Holaday acted as advisers of the club. EI Circulo Espanol The Spanish Club holds its meetings on the second Wedimesday' of each month, Each meeting consists of a program, usually given by members of the club or available interesting speakers who have been to Spain. Some meetings are devoted to Spanish music. Spanish Club dues are twenty-five cents a year. The money in the treasury is generally used for Spanish magazines, newspapers, and supplies needed for class and club work. At Christmas time several dollars are used in making up baskets for needy families. At the beginning of the school year, new oflicers are installed. They hold oflice for one year. The officers of this year Were: President, Guy Sperry, Vice-President, Marvin Buhrman, and Secretary-Teasurer, Dorothy Burnham. Misses Garmes and Twitchell acted as advisers. Le Cercle Francais Le Cercle Francais has completed another successful year under the capable leader- ship of lliiiss Gleason. The two-fold purpose of the club is to bring the members into a closer contact with French customs and people, and to create an interest and better understanding in the problems of present day France. Throughout the year, regular programs of this nature successfully developed the purpose. A basket containing a complete dinner, sufficient for six, was furnished to a needy family at Christmas time. The Christmas party, featuring a tea-dance, was held December sixteenth. The oflicers for the year were President, John Sperry, Vice-President, Roy Soliis- burg, Secretary, bflargaret Nix, and Teasurer, Clyde lVIarvin. DEV DZUtSCl12 The German Club has aimed to bring its members into closer contact with modern Germany, by presenting topics of German customs and affairs-especially those con- cerning the Youth lllovement. Under the leadership of the advisers, llfliss Garms and llfliss Bredloiv, and the oflicers, President, Adolph Schindel, Vice-President, Lorraine Yaeche, and Secretary- Treasurer, Hildegard Fuchs, the German Club has succeeded in achieving its aim. One meeting took the form of a Goethe program, since Germany is now observing the one-bundreth anniversary of the death of the great German poet and writer. At another meeting, hir. Schaefer gave an interesting talk on German schools. The German Club sang a group of Christmas songs in convocation, featuring some of Germany's best known carols. Sixiy-four ADT!

W. lvlatthews, printing instructor, has completed a successful year in both finance and progress. This year the staff has undertaken several new tasks. The joke book, composed of the best jokes published in the Bowl of Applesauce and Sideline Sparks, was sold for ten cents. A fifty per cent profit was made on this project. Another departure from the regular routine was shown in the publishing of the ten-page Christmas edition released December 24. The Press Club members wrote articles for the extra six pages which consisted of book-reviews, drama, poetry, essays and short stories. The officers of this club were Elmer Etzkorn, James Pollock, and Frances Eichelberger. These students also sponsored monthly supplements each of which was devoted to a certain department. 1VIarch 16 the staff members put out the paper without the aid of the adviser or printing instructor. H-Iupiter's Jumping Medicine, the bi-annual Variety Show, was presented in the East High auditorium january 29. A pront of S210 was realized. This, together with the S15 donated weekly by the school board, will pay for the upkeep of the Auroran during the next two years. Zalmon Goldsmith, Anna Weisniaii, Connie Chioles, the editor and adviser attended the Big Six Conference held at Freeport high school, October 10. The state conference was held at the University of Illinois November 19, 20, 21. The East High delegates were Margaret Nix, Erma Swanee, and Lloyd H. Geil. At this meeting the Auroran received distinguished rating. For the first time in its existence the Auroran was represented at the National Conference held at the Palmer House, Chicago, Illinois. Helen Kocsis, Erma Swanee, and Lloyd H. Geil attended this conference. Sixty-Six PUBLICATIONS Back Ro-zu: Benz, Crane, Eichelherger, Currv. Stailu Second Ron-.'

Sixty-.fcfvnz FORENSIC The Forensic Contests Achievements in forensic and literary work are becoming more evident in East High. For the second consecutive year, East High has won the right to attend the second National Forensic League Speech Tournament at Sioux City, Iowa, May 16, 17, 18, after placing in the state debate contest. In 1925 East High became a charter member of the National Forensic League, an honorary society for high school students who have earned credit points by taking part in some recognized form of interscholastic forensic contest. The organization is patterned after the college forensic farternity, Pi Kappa Delta. Twelve points are given to each member of a winning team, and six points for a draw. In extem- poraneous, oratory, or reading contests, the one winning first place is credited with as many points as there are contestants, while one point is subtracted for each place below first. The captain of a debate team receives an extra point for each debate. Ten points, which awards the Degree of Merit, are necessary fold entrance into the National Forensic League, thirty points earns the Degree of Honor, sixty, the Degree of Excellence, and 100, the highest possible award, the Degree of Distinction. On April 15 and 16, East High entered the debating division of the state tourna- ment, which was held at the Central Y. M. C. A. in Chicago, Illinois. The question for contention was, Resolved: That the several states should enact legislation pro- viding for compulsory unemployment insurance. Debate teams from twenty schools of the state were represented, three of these, Granite City, Jacksonville, and Pekin, being subwinners in the district of South and Central Illinois. The tournament began Friday afternoon with a general meeting of instructors. The regulations concerning debate were that any school losing two debates was auto- matically eliminated. In the first round East High's negative debated Sandwich's affirmative and lost. That afternoon, East's affirmative won from the Central Y. BI. C. A. Day School's negative team of Chicago. The next day, Eastls negative defeated the Central Evening school, and the affirma- tive won from Jacksonville's negative. The semi-finals were held Saturday evening. The five schools remaining in the tournament were: Granite City, Freeport, Sand- wich, Jacksonville, and East High. The East High negative team defeated Jackson- ville, thus placing East High in the finals, with Sandwich and Freeport. These three schools were then tied for first, second, and third place in the state tournament. National headquarters ruled that all three schools could attend the National Speech Tournament held at Sioux City, Iowa, on lvlay 16, 17, 18. As only two individuals could bc included on a team all of East Highys debaters were not brought into action there. The debaters representing East High in the state contest were: affirmative, Orise Hill, Connie Chioles, and Zalmon Goldsmith, captain, negative, lllanley Perry, Ralph Bjorseth, and Anna Weisman, captain. The above mentioned and the following are members of the Forensic League: Dorothy Galbraith, Doris Van Ry, Shirley Frank, Robert Lambert, and Nicholas Suta. The Big Six literary contest was held at Elgin, Illinois, lXIay 27. The two divi- sions of this contest were original oratory and extemporaneous speaking. East High representatives were entered in both. The speech department of East High is under the supervision of Mr. Attig and Mr. Blackman, who coach the extemporaneous and oratory contestants, as well as the debate squad.

As a result, the East High affirmative defeated Joliet by a large margin, while the negative lost, thus placing East High in the upper half of the conference with VVest and Freeport. The championship round was held at VVest High, February 25. Professor Oliver O'Konski of the University of Wiscorisiri judged the debates. The three affirmative victories tied the schools for first, but Freeport received the judge's final decision, placing East and West second.

Clarence Schelling Seivfnly-one MUSIC The Qrchestra Under the daily leadership of Miss Margaret Pouk and Josephine Farmer Vernon, the East High orchestra has in the past year strengthened itself as a musical organization. Previous to this year, not much emphasis had been placed upon work- ing with the individual sections of the orchestra, but when the plan was put intq actual practice, it proved beneficial to the students, and to the orchestra as a whole. Introduction to the third act of Wagner's 'iLohengrin', predominated among the compositions which the orchestra put under extensive and detailed study. Other .numbers included in this group were The Unfinished Symphony by Schubert, and Down South by W. H. Myddleton. ln choosing a repertoire for the orchestra, Miss Pouk always tried to make it one of considerable variation, including modern, ultra-modern, classical, and romantic types of compositions. It was interesting to notice that the types proving most appeal- ing to the members of the orchestra were the types which most people consider dull and uninteresting, those being the classical and romantic. Besides daily practice in the auditorium, the orchestra has made several public appearances. It furnished music for the junior and senior class plays, and accompanied the glee clubs in the operetta. It represented East High in the annual May Festival at Dundee. -l,l'l2 Glee Clubs The Glee Clubs, under the direction of Miss Pouk, again closed a very success- ful year. The Girls' Glee Club was divided into first and second divisions. The first division was made up of senior and junior girls, and the second division of sophomore and freshmen girls who are trained to become members of the first division later. The Boys' Glee Club is an organized body. A greater interest in music among the boys is shown each year by the steadily increasing enrollment of the club. Quality of voice is also showing improvement. The work of the Glee clubs during the first semester centered around the operetta, 'fThe lllarriage of Nannettef' by A. E. Peterson and L. W. Curtis. lt was pre- sented November fifth and sixth. This type of music did much to develop solo and small group singing. During the second semester, the work consisted of preparing numbers which were presented at the annual Fox River Valley llflusic Festival held at Dundee, Illinois in May.

Sefventy-Ifwo MUSIC The Marriage ol Nannette 'lThe Marriage of Nannettef' a comic opera written by A. li. Peteron and L. VV. Curtis, was presented in the East High School auditorium on November 5 and 6, l93l. The opera, under the direction of Miss Lulu Bredlow and bliss Nlargaret Pouk, was presented by the Girls' and Boys' Glee Clubs. The story takes place in ai village in France in the eighteenth century. The plot centers around a young French maiden who is in lovet with a village youth. The . , . . girls mother, however, is much opposed to the love affair and shrewdly persuades the girl to marry a nobleman who is coming to the village. The purpose of his visit is to meet a French countess Whom he is to marry. In spite of the mo'ther's plotting, the play ends happily. The scenery, under the supervision of Miss Shirley, art instructor, Nlr. Ryburn and Mr. Bloodgood, was very effective.

Tulsa, Oklahoma, last year, the boys returned in September with a better understanding of music, and with a will to be- come more proficient musicians. The band received sixth place in class A, playing, and won the national championship' in marching. Three soloists placed in the national contest: Harold Brown, bassoon, Keig Garvin, trombone, second place, and Rostelle Reese, cornet, third. The band opened the season, the first week, by traveling to Joliet, where, with four hundred other high school musicians, they gave a massed concert. Besides playing at the football games, it gave two concerts, one at Waterman, and the other in East High. A spring concert was given ini March, at which the contest numbers were presented. In April, East High again placed in the first division of class. A of the state band contest, held at Urbana. In the state solo contests, several East High boys were winners. They were: Keig Garvin, trombone, Harvey Geist, baritone, Harold Brown, bassoon, Robert Johnson, trombone, Gale Christian, baritone, and Robert Teichman, tlute. Mr. Rosenbarger, director of the band, has done excellent work in developing a championship band. For the past two years he has been president of the Illinois School Band Association. Seventy-four ATHLETIC! GIRLS' ATHLETICS The Girls' Athletic Association The Girl's Athletic Association in the past year has reached the height of its career at East High. The interest in girls' sports has greatly increased, and the club has made rapid strides under competent leaders. The oflicers of the athletic associa- tion are President, Winifred Brengle, Vice-Preisdent, Ann Cline, Secretary, Emily Dick, Treasurer, ll-Iildred Myers, and faculty adviser, llfiiss Esther French. G. A. A. is entirely a sports' club, and sponsors no social events. Basketball is the major girls, sport, and this year the season continued for six- teen weeks instead of the usual eight. At the end of each eight weeks a tournament was played. The first tournament consisted of thirteen teams, three chosen from each class, with the exception of the freshmen, who had four teams. Every girl who had been faithful during the first eight weeks played in the tournament which was won by the junior team. For the last tournament, only eight girls were chosen from each class, and instead of an elimination tournament, a round-robin tournament was played. This was a new feature to East High girls. The junior team, the 1932 basketball champions, went thru the tournament un- defeated. In honor of their victory, the Girls' Athletic Association gave a banquet April 13, 1932, at which time the members of the team were presented with small medals. Geraldine Gage presided as chairman, and Mrs. Emeny gave the main speech of the evening. A swimming club was organized which met weekly at the Y. W. C. A. This club was greeted with much enthusiasm, and enabled the girls to earn more points toward their awards. East High participated in three play days, two held at Mooseheart and one at Naperville. Soccer, baseball, cageball, basketball, and swimming were the events of the day. The tennis tournament, as in 1930, was held in the fall. lVIany girls came out for this sport, and showed by their playing ability that they had kept in trim during the summer months. Inter-school competition is allowed in tennis, and a meet was held at Elgin. The team was composed of the following girls: IVIildred Myers, cap- tain, Geraldine Gage, Ruth Coward, Ruth Maley, and Marie Wulf, who played doubles, Marian Bauman, Alleene Redicke, Dorothy Tibbets, and Emily Dick, who played singles. In accordance with the seasonal program, soccer was played in the fall, and baseball was played during the spring. Baseball ranks a close second in being the girls' favorite sport, and all classes were well represented. As a fitting close to the school year, Miss French chaperoned a group of girls on a camping trip. This was an entirely new idea at East High, but it was thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended, and will be remembered as a high spot of their years at East High.

Awards To become a member of the lllinois League of Girls, Athletic Associations, a girl must work for an emblem, which she receives according to her work and service to the school in connection with girls' athletics. The first two awards are of the local chapter, and require six hundred points for the Hrst, and twelve hundred for the second. The last two awards are included in the State League, and require sixteen hundred and two thousand points, respec- tively. The only necessary requirements to obtain an award are faithfulness and service. A girl may win points bv participating in organized and uuorganized activities, and by training for sixteen weeks. Any girl who takes gym earns three hundred points a year in addition to. other activities. The unorganized activities are those which are not under the supervision of an instructor. Those classed as organized activities are class work and the supervised after school sports. VVhen a girl has received one awa1'd she may not earn the same one again, but must work for the next highest. Seven girls, earning sixteen hundred points, won the first state award. They were lfrma Swanee, Allene Rediske, Shirley lllyers, Lucille Green, Ann Cline, lllildred lllyers, and Cecilia Sauer. Those earning twelve hundred points were lllargaret Curry, lllarie VVulf, Geraldine Gage, Erma Vvestphall, Emily Dick, Vivian Kopp, Ruth Rrugger, and Rosine Hilger.

This season, East High came through with four conference victories and one defeat, giving us second place in the Big Six Conference standing. To start the season, East High played four non-conference battles, the first being on the night of September 18 with Urbana, in which East High won by a score of 18 to O. Parker of Chicago was next and they also bowed to East High by a score of 20 to 7. Thorton of Chicago, too, met defeat by a score of 12 to 7, and the last non-conference game which was with Moline ended in a 7 to 6 verdict in favor of lwoline. East opened the Big Six season with Joliet on the night of October 9 and was defeated by them, 7 to 6. Later East High received the game on a forfeit. East High next' played Freeport and defeated them S to 6. Elgin visited East High and was turned back 19 to 0 in a severe downpour of rain. East High was then entertained by Rockford and defeated them 14 to 7. The Annual Turkey Day battle was staged on the East High field and turned out to be a bad day for East High. West High won 13 to 0, and not only tool: the game but also the Big Six Championship. So another successful football season goes down in the records of East High, another trophy is placed in the case, and the graduating seniors look back on a season of pleasant memories. Lightweight Football At the close of the season the lightweights found themselves in third place in the conference, standing with three victories and two defeats. The season was opened on September 25 with a game with the East High B team which ended a scoreless tie. The following Friday the lightweights beat Proviso by a 14 to 0 score. On October 9 the conference season was opened with a game with Joliet at Joliet. East High won 26 to 6. The next game was at home with Freeport and East High again won 18 to 0. The game with Elgin came next and was played on a very wet Held and ended in a 26 to 6 score in favor of Elgin. On October 31 the lightweights were enter- tained by Rockford and lost to the upstate boys 7 to 6. The next week, November 6, no game was scheduled and so the boys received a rest after which came a game with La Grange. The rest', did them good be- cause as the final gun sounded the score was 26 to 6 in our favor. To climax the whole season the boys played their rivals across the river on Novem- ber 21 at the VVest High field. Both teams fought hard but East High took the game 14 to 6. Thus ended the lightweight season and nothing remains but pleasant memories of the players who fought so hard to put East High in front.

In the dual meets, the team showed up well, and experienced one of the most successful seasons of the past few years. intra-Mural Sports Intra-mural sports have firmly established themselves in the life of East High, because approximately 500 boys are given an opportunity to play on some team or participate in some sport. As all boys cannot play on the football and basketball teams, the next best thing is to play on some team, and the choice naturally falls into Intra-mural, with basketball, volleyball, baseball, and horseshoe constituting the schedule. Under the leadership of Mr. Gunderson, faculty adviser, and the manager- ship of Arnold Settles, Thomas Strong, Gail Christian, and numerous assistant mana- gers, the program is very ably carried on. Nearly every section in high school has been represented in the program, being in one or all of the sports. The basketball program was divided into three leagues, the senior, the junior, and the freshman, with 36 teams competing in all. The winners were Miss Comiskey's section in the senior, Miss Doolen's section in the junior, and lVIiss Gleason's section in the freshman league. Miss Doolen's team after two scrappy games with the other winners, annexed the school championship. In volleyball, with 20 teams competing, Mr. Millerls section copped first place, with Miss Turner's section taking second honors. Approximately 60 boys signed up for the horseshoe tournament, with strong competition in both the doubles and singles. ln baseball, 34 sections were represented with 33 games being played. All games were played at noon. ln addition basketball games were played Satur- day mornings in four of the grade school gymnasiums on the East Side. An even greater schedule is being planned for next year. Golf East High has won honor in another field of competition-the golf tournament. This was established recently, and it has met with great enthusiasm. Anyone is eligible to try out for golf, and those with the lowest scores are entered in the district meet held at Phillip's Park, lway 7, l93Z. Those who tried out were Eldred Erick, Harley Stoner, Edward Kaluza, Clement Coleman, Carl Haag, Ed- ward Ploetz, Arnold Settles, Darwin Bjorseth, John Miller, John Schmeisser, Gerald Ream, Howard Habermeyer, and Donald Jaska. Those with the lowest scores, Harley Stoner, Howard Habermeyer, Eldred Erick, and Donald Jaska, competed in the district tournament. ln this meet, East High won the first of three places, victory going to Eldred Erick, Harley Stoner, and Howard Habermeyer, respectively.
