K. D. WALDO, SUPERINTENDENT In sending out a graduating class, East High owes much of the credit to genial, jovial, kind-hearted Mr. Waldo, superintendent of the east side schools. Harking back through our high-school days, we remember with a smile the painstaking letters we wrote Mr. WValdo, telling him of our hopes and ambitions in life. That was in Junior High. four years ago, but Mr. Waldo kept every single letter in anticipa- tion of the senior banquet, when the letters were again produced, to be read among smiles and memories. How earnest we were, and how confident! lwr. YValdo is especially close to the hearts of Iiast High stu- dents, for he was their principal from 1914 to 1928, at which time he took the office of superintendent. The latter position he has held for six years with great success, and we all hope he will continue to serve for many more years. M1'. VValdo is prominent in Illinois school affairs, having held the oflice of president of the lllinois Teachers' Association. He is also well known in Aurora circles, being a member of the Lions' Club, as well as serving on the Boards of Directors of the Y.lVI.C.A.. the Improvement Building Sc Loan Association, and the Juvenile Protective Association. As we go out into the world to conquer, we shall carry with us the memory of our superintendent, who has always been ready to extend a helping hand, and whose guiding influence will remain with us in years to come. O. V. WALTERS, PRINCIPAL For four years the Ship of 193-if has sailed through stormy waters in which lurked unseen reefs to throw us off the course and disable us. At last, however, we see the open sea and clear water ahead, as graduation day approaches. At that time our Ship will drop its able pilot who has so successfully guided us through dangerous waters, and we will be on our own. Mr. VValters has been our blaster Pilot for these four years, and due to his influence and intelligence we have come through with flying colors. The lessons in navigation he has taught will be invaluable to us, and his guidance will extend far beyond our four years with him. When not absorbed in plotting our course, Mr. Walters has often turned to aid us in our own personal troubles, and in such moments did we greatly appreciate his friendship, and his wise advice. Perhaps we were not always in accord with his views, but later days taught us that he was right, and we silently paid tribute to his judgment. An orator of no mean ability, Mr. Walters is prominent not only in matters of education, but has held several offices which only men of merit and integrity could successfully fill, and is known to community and state as a man of initiative and leadership. Graduation day, and open water ahead! We drop our pilot and with deep regret continue alone on unchartered seas. llflr. Walters, a firm believer in student government, has trained us in the navigation of our Ship, and we are confident. I ull of hope, we say: Full-speed ahead!
