OO ffl l'1C21Cl . . . H he members of the Iunior Class of 1946, foresaw visions of an annual being published during their last year at school. This dream had first taken faint form and promise during their Freshman year, had strengthened and grown during the next year and had first actually become a soon-to-be reality during the Junior year. The process of putting a foundation under the dream really started with the attendance of several members of the future staff at the Iournalism Conference at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio last Iune. In the meantime several members of the faculty became interested in the project and agreed to assist in carrying out the plans. As a yearbook had not been published at East High for the past ten years, we were glad that our class had the opportunity of attempting to give the public a presentation of such a book as portrays the history of our classes through their progress of learning, athletic achievements, and social activities. We have Worked industriously to make our efforts a success. Each one has done his best. There have been mistakes and oversights which we hope future classes will foresee and rectify. Obstacles which handicapped us, we trust, will be overcome. May this year's project serve as a stepping stone for future classes of East High to carry on the work. May their efforts keep pace with the progress and increas- ingly high standards of East High.
