Our Last Will and Testament We, the graduating class of February, 1933, finding that we have acquired many odd traits which we are unable to take with us upon our departure from the portals of East High School, have decided to leave them to those who we think are best fitted to accept them. Ponder then, one and all, while you read this document, as duly drawn up and sworn to this 27th day of January, 1933. Evelyn Crowner bequeaths her height to Ina Zimmer. Emil Anton, who speaks so well in public, leaves this ability to William Liebler. Irvin Baker begs Freddie Babo to take his looks andalsoalargeportionofhis“IT”. Thomas Hollarn leaves his winning smile to Harry Levey. Casimir Jakubowski bequeaths his ability to flirt to Mugsie Thomas, who is such a shy little boy. “Did” DeTuerk leaves his ability to high jump to Freddie Herbo. Abraham Molash leaves his power to argue in P. O. D. to Tom Rodgers. To Bill Smith, Matilda Lauretta leaves her modesty. John Stewart leaves his skill at working jig-saw puzzles to John McLeod, who throws a fit at the mere mention of the word. Robert Huegel leaves his “drag” with Miss Hughes to Mary Yingling, George Blossey, and the many, many others who hunger for mercy. Morrie Puleo leaves his dark, handsome features to Max Phillips. Adelaide Wood leaves her dramatic ability to “Shy” Gonski, who, she is sure will make good use of it. Edward Burgnon leaves his strange power over the women to “Tiflfy” Solomon. Joe McDannel leaves his yen for big game hunting to Tom Pierson. John Machuga is planning to leave the country. Jeanne Grugin leaves her ability to chew gum so loudly and enthusiastically to Albert Freeman. Jack Brydon leaves his tennis ability to Mr. Ray. Art Amann dares anyone to take Audrey. To maintain the reputation of the school, Eva Shniderman bequeaths her high marks to Paul Anderson. Eugene Kreider leaves his fair complexion to Thomas Lambros. John Tupitza leaves his tumbling skill to John Jageman. Marion Franke leaves her slenderness to Marion Mead. John Rafalowski leaves his dancing ability to Bus Smiley. Fred Haffey leaves his red, well-combed hair to Ed Zelaney. Anna Yusz leaves her sweetness to Earl Wagner. Arthur Guelcher leaves his appetite to Harry Shniderman. Howard Norwat hopes Mr. Harbold will accept his slim waistline. Edward Chileli who has such a lovely singing voice leaves it to Earl Kelly. Armand Chimenti, the lad with the big. brown eyes, leaves them to Richard Schultz. Anna Forish leaves her quietness to “Babe” Diesel. Jack Laraway leaves his prowess on the gridiron to hat-a-man” Kearney, who will undoubtedly need it. Robert Frank bequeaths his golf clubs to James Laird. Dolores Schneider leaves her attractiveness and dynamic personality to Ann Figasky, but on second thought takes it back as Ann already has a great deal of both. Ernest Rice, who is the proud possessor of an enormous vocabulary, leaves this treasure to “Five Ten Osiecki. Paul Corritore leaves his extraordinary violin playing to Rose Scharrer with the hope that this will make the programs by the orchestra more bearable. Gladys Graboski leaves her curly hair to Rosemarie Mahoney. 17

GLADYS GRABOSKI President HOWARD BURGNON Vice-President EVA SIINIDKRMAN Secretary-Treasurer The Mid-Year Class It seems like centuries ago since we, the Class of January, 1933, first climbed the stone steps of the building which has since proved itself the dearest spot of our youth. We were “green” little children then. Our pride at becoming members of East High was “squelched” indeed when we found all of our time for two whole years being spent in trying to dodge the stampede of envied upper classmen. Our Freshmen year was one of utter humiliation, for we found that, even after two years of struggle, the higher classes didn’t even recognize us. As “Sophs”, we spent our days in “high-hatting” the Freshmen, dodging the Seniors, and trying to make friends with the Juniors, who appeared amiable, but who were not. Though we were considered trivial, we were satisfied in the knowledge that we were no longer the infants of the school. We were beginning to realize what school spirit meant. We felt that we had the ability to accomplish the work required of a high school student, and our participation in school activities was gradually undertaken with zest. We worked the hardest in our eleventh year. For did we not have “Seniorship” in view? We were needed by the Seniors to assist in activities. Our time diminished with almost unheard of rapidity. As Seniors, we were very much like chickens with their heads cut oil. It seemed that the harder we worked, the less we accomplished. When the time came for our class play, we found some really excellent dramatic ability among some of the more bashful members of our class. We had an enjoyable banquet. One night, however, is imprinted deeper than any other in our memories. On that night (I do not have to tell you) was our Commencement. It was not the tearful occasion we had expected—probably because most of us were so absorbed in our Commencement speeches. On that evening, we could well harbor a feeling of superiority, for could we not say proudly, “I came! I saw! I conquered!”? At East we were pointed out all that is best in life. The highest ideals of citizenship were flaunted unwaveringly before us. We found our best friends in the members of the faculty. We shall hold forever in love and gratitude the memory of our High School Days. —Adelaide Wood. 10
