Since Eastern High School was established in 1962, numerous people have been instrumental in the school’s growth, but none has worked quite so hard as Mr. Elmo S. Allgood. He has been tireless in his efforts to provide the best possible educational opportunities for the youth of the community, and he has ex¬ erted every influence to maintain an academic atmosphere with¬ out stifling the vigor and enthusiasm of youth. During his admin¬ istration, the school has experienced almost phenomenal growth in physical facilities, and many curriculum adjustments have been made in an effort to meet the educational needs of every student. Because of the expansion of buildings and the increase in the stu¬ dent body, Mr. Allgood’s duties have multiplied, but he still manages to know most of the students personally, and he has also furthered his own education so that he might better serve the stu¬ dents and faculty with whom he works. It is with sincere appreciation and admiration that we dedicate the 1968 Signa to our principal, Mr. Elmo S. Allgood. Elmo S. Allgood Dedication — ’-m Contents Administration 14 Academics 32 Student Life 48 Sports 74 Album 98 Community 147 . . Motion What is Motion? Life’s emphasis on the ups And downs of a Pogo-stick world. The surgings of a flood And the trickle of a stream. The soft concentric circles Of a drop merging into the Whole. The blurred gyrations Of a merry-go-round. The spinning spirals of a Searching mind Behind a still visage. Standing on the solid ground Beside the abyss — Future, Reluctant but yearning For the freedom of Fall. What is Motion? ... The evidence of Life. • iWi i.i ' • V-. ' ; s . . . Sound What is Sound? Life’s emphasis on the ethereal And demonic. Quiet... Quiet? No! Etching pencils tracing thoughts. Thoughts- The consummate noise Of quiet sound. Loud .. . Loud? No! In the yelling crowd Still heart and Faint breath testify to silence. The quiet and the loud Drawn together Because they are Sound. Snow, nature’s accoustics, Padding the heavy Footfall. Loud whispers In a “Quiet Zone.” Soft sounds and Hard sounds. What is Sound? ... The epitome of sensation. - ,i,vs£jiU ' iiv.fei ' .;-: V-:: . .Touch What is Touch? Life’s emphasis on expression. We communicate with Our hands. The confident hand Urging us on in our despondency. The touch of Empathy and sympathy. We create. Our thoughts, impossible to express, Flow through our hands and become tangible— Explicable. The miracle of a detached Attachment so intimate with Our souls. Beauty, rough and refined, Flows in and out of Our fingertips. The angle of individuality And the curve of conformity— Always with its barbs. The burlap of hate And the soft fur of understanding Run through our mind’s Bargaining hands. Which do we buy for the Garments of our soul? Touch decides. What is touch? ... The communication of souls. Hi Mood What is Mood? Life’s emphasis on the abstract. Riotous Laughter bringing Upheavals of the face’s planes. Holding hands With capricious Whimsy, Skimming across the surface of the mind, Thinking lightly. Despondency blindfolds And takes us through the Labyrinth of dark passages... Or in circles. Where are we then? Sorrow rains in our eyes, Then gives his place to Thought. He picks up Life, Turning it carefully And slowly formulates An idea of its use. Thought answers the immediate And changes colors to Serenity. What is Mood? . . . The whimsy of the mind. ■■ EMPHASIS What is Guidance? Life’s emphasis on molding. The hands of the Sculptress. Push, press, Smooth. Start again. Working with the Pulsing clay. The excavators Of young Minds ... teachers. To joy in a rich vein And cry With disappointed sorrow At nature’s flukes. The very human Beings. So human as to Wish for More For each of Us. The struggle with an Idea That refuses to be Seen. The light That comes. So they strive. For what? Satisfaction? If so, then Unheralded by Appreciation. Surely More. The untried Friend In the unexpected Place. They laugh with Us And hurt in our Sorrow. Surely more than Satisfaction.

Dover, Jr. performs numerous tasks as assistant prin¬ cipal. He received his B.S. degree at Elon College. Dr. John Deason, superintendent of Alamance County Schools, is a graduate of the University of Alabama. He received his M.A. at Peabody College and his doctorate at Columbia. Serving as principal is a time-consuming and, on occasions, trying position, but Mr. Elmo Allgood exhibits both patience and under¬ standing with the students at Eastern. He received his A.B. degree at High Point College and his M.E. at U.N.C.-G. Mr. Allgood also completed advanced graduate study at the University of North Carolina. 16 Staff SCHOOL COMMITTEE: (Front Row) Mr. Manuel Williamson, Mr. Winder Long, Mr. Garland Thompson, Mr. Stephen A.

Miss Frances Walser, concentrates her time and en¬ ergy on maintaining an orderly and academic atmosphere in the library. She received her A.B. degree from Peace College. Mrs. Carol Evans, who received her com¬ mercial training at U.N.C.-G., is the soft-spoken and pleasant secretary at Eastern. She is a former employee of the town of Graham. I � « . „ «- No matter how busy her schedule, Mrs. Elisabeth Hill, our guidance counselor, always has time to confer with students who need her assistance. She received her A.B. degree from Duke and her M.Ed. from U.N.C.-G. One of the most nerve-wracking jobs at any school is that of driving a school bus. Cold winter mornings, boisterous students, and less than enthusiastic motors compound the difficulties of our dedicated chaffeurs, but they manage to arrive at their desti¬ nations on schedule. The library assistants also perform important School tasks. They devote their study halls to issuing books, checking library passes, and keeping the library orderly. Though theirs is sometimes a thankless task, both groups of students render faith¬ ful service to the school.

Staff Because the school’s janitorial and cafeteria staff members are efficient and keep the school operating smoothly, they are too often taken for granted. Students know that the floors will be cleaned and the rooms warmed regardless of the weather, and that the cafeteria staff will have a hot lunch prepared everyday. Although they rarely acknowledge these efforts, most students realize that the staff performs invaluable service in the school’s functioning. CAFETERIA STAFF: Mrs.Clyda Moser, dietitian, Junius Cobb, Mona Farthing, Rachel Hester, Mary Johnson, Minnie Miles, Hattie Moore, I Louise Paylor, and Naomi Smith. .

It is the Tool Of the Sculptress, Chiseling the fine, Impervious groove, Forming the Convolutions Of the Brain. Question and Answer. The legacy of Centuries Compounded into Our books And Pounded into Our minds. The waves That wash on the Shore Leaving a small Miracle- A shell... a fact. The artful disposition of Trifles And Magnanimities. The repeated Process Of all Who think Or Ever thought. What is Learning? ... The heart of Academics. §SS I tpl Mm WStmmmfc mM . . . Learning 33 I Practice Improves Accuracy Passing by room A-2, one might hear, “Batter up!” Yes, there is a baseball game in progress,but not the type in which a bat and ball are used. This game is an entertaining drill which teaches the phonetic spelling of words written in shorthand. After the hours of drill and practice which are necessary to provide them with a good background in shorthand and typing, students are prepared to take office practice. In this course, students gain a comprehensive view of office work. They learn to operate the newest equipment available, including transcribing machines, rotary calculators, printing calculators, and duplicating equipment. The commercial department not only attempts to acquaint students with basic business skills and procedures, but also provides practical knowl¬ edge of office etiquette and grooming. M In an effort to meet the needs of all students, Eastern provides a vocational program which makes it possible for junior and senior students to combine their classwork with actual job exp erience for high school credit. Students who are working in local stores or in any phase of marketing take distributive education, while those Education Through Experience who are in the trade and industrial fields take industrial cooper¬ ative training. In the classroom, vocational students study a general course as well as specific, job-related materials. Courses are also available in marketing and introduction to vocations, a class primarily designed for underclassmen. erry Hargis, an employee of Mebane Oil Company, gets on-the- job training through the distributive education program. Under the direction of Mr. Emil Littell, I.C.T. students learn the principles of industry by studying specialized curriculum materials. Preparing for a Future in It is not surprising for Eastern students to look out the window and see Mr. Covington and his agriculture students riding by on the tractor and trailer. These industrious people stay busy keeping the grounds groomed and the shrubbery pruned. No task seems too difficult for them, and their provision of large Christmas trees for decorating the campus has become a tradition. Their Stanley Allen gains skill in the use of the band saw. Agriculture students shell corn which they have raised to finance their various projects. Farming | talents are not limited to outside activities, however. In the shop they gain practical knowledge ranging from welding to furniture refinishing and restoration. Carpentry is another phase of their 1 training, and many examples of their handiwork may be found in i in the classrooms at Eastern. Boys taking shop learn welding in preparation for farm mechanics. 36 mportance of Fitness Stressed Tfter hours of being confined to quiet classrooms and serious tudy, freshmen welcome their physical education period and an ipportunity to “work off steam.” Volleyball, basketball, gym- astics, and softball are only a few of the sports in whi ch they have an opportunity to acquire skill and to learn good sports¬ manship. In the health curriculum, students see films, hear lec¬ tures, and participate in class discussions which will increase their understanding of the human body and its functions. Three days each week Mrs. Frances Fleming gives class¬ room instruction in health. The remaining class periods are spent in physical education activities. P.E. II boys practice jumping jacks as part of their routine calistenics. I Rehearsal for Future Homemaking The home economics department at Eastern attempts to provide courses which will benefit both boys and girls in the present and future. In an effort to better meet these needs, the physical facilities have been expanded by the addition of more clothing and cooking laboratory space. Thus, students not only receive classroom instruction, but they also have opportunities to prac¬ tice their newly-acquired skills. Realizing the need for culinary skills for young men, special boy’s home economics classes have been added to the curriculum. Also offered are general courses in which a student may advance from the rudiments of sewing to more advanced design and construction, and co-educational classes in family life. 38 Future Perceived from the Past “To know nothing of the past is to know little of the present and to have no conception of the future.” Following the preceding philosophy, the social studies department teaches students of the past and present through courses in civics, government, world history, sociology, and United States history. This learning is not limited to textbooks alone, however. Spirited classroom dis¬ cussions, films, speakers, and television classes give insight into the possible future. Students endeavor to apply the principles learned through these courses to their lives in a complicated modern world. Musicians Provide Spirited Entertainment Drum major Bynum Tuttle. The pep band, a special group of musicians, provide spirited music for sports events and pep rallies. Majorettes: Ida Em Anderson, Kristin Schmitz (head), Susan Gilliam. Notes from the Eastern school song drift through class¬ room windows early in September as band members swelter in the early fall heat. Mr. Beach and his musici¬ ans begin early to prepare for their performances at the football games, pep rallies, and assembly programs. In their green and gold uniforms, Eastern’s band and ma¬ jorettes add color and pageantry to school functions and local parades. Also under the direction of Mr. Joseph Beach, the glee club provides opportunity for students possessing musical talent to acquire further training. Members participate in an annual Christmas cantata, sing at civic meetings, and present special music at graduation exercises. The band and glee club complement each other in helping to provide a well- rounded curriculum. , , ■, . . . • it : • • Empathy Stressed in Dramatics 1968 has been a very special year for the dramatics class at Eastern because for the first time they have a “real” auditorium in which to display their talents. In preparation for their major production in April, they presented three one-act plays in January. They do not always bask in the glory of “opening night,” however. Students spend hours of work in the classroom, where they give numerous speeches, make critical analyses of various plays, and even witness the dissection of a sheep’s larynx in order to better understand the voice mechanism. The class also takes field trips to nearby cities in order to att end dramatic performances. Wat Hopkins directs Steven Scott and Jack Watkins in a one-act play, while other members observe the technique. Artistic Abilities Are Revealed Having been in existence for only three years Eastern’s art department has expanded its curriculum to include many phases of art. Numerous artistic media provide opportuni¬ ties for students to express creativity, and these “budding” artists begin their careers by designing, drawing, or painting. Later they practice fashioning wood, clay, and plaster sculptures or etching monograms on glass. They also make use of knitting, needle¬ point, and crewel as they attempt to pro¬ duce their own “masterpiece.” To gain better artistic understanding and clearer understand¬ ing, students carefully study famous artists, their life, and their paintings. This year the art students took several field trips, including one to the North Carolina Museum of Art. Artistic expression is not limited to conventional means, as Steve Anthony and Keith Dodson demonstrate by refinishing a milk can. Art takes many forms at Eastern. 43 Further Development in English Although English is required four years for all students, an attempt is made to meet the needs of the individual. For those who plan to pursue a career in business, a course in commercial English is offered. In this class, emphasis is placed on letter¬ writing and communication skills. Students in I.C.T. and D.E. take vocational English, which has been adapted for those who do not plan to attend college. College preparatory courses provide general background in composition and literature, and enriched classes are offered for the academically talented. For those who have interest in more specific areas of English, full-year courses in dramatics and journalism are taught. The foreign language department is a vital part of our school curriculum. Through films, tapes, and recordings, students gain a deeper understanding of French and Spanish culture. The language department at Eastern highlighted their year with the formation of our first subject-related club, the French Club. Their purpose is to learn more about France, its language, its people, and its social customs. Pen pals are also an integral part of learning for many foreign language students. Through correspondence with young men and women of other countries, students gain knowl¬ edge which transcends that found in a textbook. Audio-lingual aids enable students to hear Spanish as it is spoken.

Foreign Language Club Is Formed Increasing Technological Advancement “Enthusiasm” is the key word in the science department under the guidance of Mrs. Abernathy. Freshmen are required to take physical science, and sophomores are required to take general biology. Those students who plan to attend college usually take advanced biology, chemistry, and physics. In these courses, juniors and seniors learn to incorporate all of their knowledge of science. The mathematics department offers courses ranging from general and consumer mathematics to advanced mathematics and calculus. Two units of math are necessary for graduation, but many students take mathematics courses all four years. Sets, rational and irrational numbers, tangents, sines, and cosines cause many sleepless nights of unsolved problems. Senior Steve Kemodle attempts to solve a difficult problem on his slide rule. Roselynn Rascoe performs the satisfying experience of completing a geometry construction. Biology students prepare agar plates.

This vital organization aids in the planning of student activities for the school year. Each homeroom elects a representative who exemplifies high standards of leadership and academic ability. Many activities and projects are sponsored by the student coun¬ cil throughout the year. It plays a significant role in the magazine sale, the only source of income for club functions, and each club budget is established by this administrative body. The council sponsors School Spirit Week, to place special emphasis on all phases of student life, and a homecoming dance for the renewal of old acquaintances. The arrival of the holi¬ day season was marked by a Christmas party, at which students enjoyed refreshments and dancing to popular music. Each special holiday dance was highlighted by decorations, refresh¬ ments, and combos. The activities of the student council have provided many memorable experiences for E.H.S. students this year. Johnny Phelps claims prizes for being top salesman in the school¬ wide magazine sale.

Has Many Successful Projects As the senior members move solemnly among the stu¬ dent body in the dimly-lighted gym, wistful silence falls over the audience. This is one of the highest mo¬ ments of the school year for the new members inducted into the National Honor Society. No honor conferred by the school excels that of being given membership in this society which sees education as a total product, based on scholarship, leadership, character, and ser¬ vice. To fulfill the principle of service, the National Honor Society undertakes many projects during the year. Club members serve as guides at various school functions. In December, they sponsor the annual White Christmas program to aid needy families in our community. Each Wednesday, members sell paperback books in the library. At the end of the year, the club presents a scholarship to a deserving senior member. The finale of the year’s activities is the traditional senior-farewell dinner. NHS students show the true yuletide spirit by sponsoring White Christmas program.

Membership in the Junior Engineers Club is open to any junior or senior who is taking chemistry and physics. The purpose of the club is to promote interest in the field of engineering. Interesting programs are presented each month to enable club members to become familiar with the numerous phases of this field and the career opportunities available to them. The main project of the year is the training of members in the operation of the school’s audio-visual equipment. The Junior Engineers also offer audio¬ visual assistance to faculty members as a service project. John Schoderbek offers technical assistance to a faculty member by operating the film projector.

The program com¬ mittee has as its main goal increased student participation. In pursuit of this goal, quiz programs and panel discussions are used, as well as speeches by faculty members from nearby universities, to stimulate student interest in the life sciences. Annually, the club conducts a science fair, in which members compete for awards for research papers or projects which they have prepared during the year. Members of the biology club participate in a discussion on photosynthesis.

Prepares Students Freshmen who are interested in careers as doctors, nurses, den¬ tists, or other medical personnel have an opportunity to learn more about their chosen fields through the Junior Health Careers Club. Local members of the medical professions present interesting programs throughout the year. One of the highlights of the year for this club is their annual tour of an area hospital. Through their various activities, the members of the Junior Health Careers Club are inspired to seek their future professions. JR.

The purpose of these clubs is to familiarize those who are interested in health- related careers with specialized areas of this field. The Eastern Health Careers Club has found that area citizens are eager to foster members’ interest in medicine, and local doctors, dentists, and hospital staffs have been most cooperative in presenting programs or making facilities available for club tours. Also many community leaders who are vitally concerned with young people and the pro¬ blems they face help the club to present a mental health work¬ shop every spring for Eastern students. Another annual project is the sponsoring of an Easter egg hunt at the Elon Home for Children. The Health Careers Club is a large one, and it is hoped that many of the members will continue their education and training and then take their places as competent health workers.

The club, which is sponsored by the agriculture department, gives members an opportunity to discuss problems in farm management and to gain practical skills which will be of benefit to them in their work. Eastern’s chapter of F.F.A. is an active group,and members participate in several service projects at the school. In November members went to Bartlett- Yancey High School to compete with other area schools in the Federation Judging Contest. Students were tested on their knowl¬ edge of parliamentary procedure and skill in tool identification. F.F.A. members also have an annual Father-Son Banquet, which they finance with profits from crops they grow and sell.

The Key Club is a group of young men who are devoted to the service of their school, community, and natio n. Under the sponsorship of the local Kiwanis clubs, the Key Club participates in a variety of projects during the year. One of the most outstanding projects has been obtaining a trophy case for the school. In November, the Mebane Kiwanis Club gave a banquet for the Key Club to promote a good relationship between the two clubs. This year there was an excellent represen¬ tation at the Carolinas District convention, and the club had two members to attend the Key Club International Convention in Louisville, Kentucky. The service and dedication of Key Club members help to make this club one of the most active at Eastern. 64 m m Keyettes Sell T.B.

The staff was chosen, the theme decided on, and production began. New members of the staff soon understood the look of doom on the faces of the veteran members and their advisor. As time passed, 164 blank lay-out pages began to gain character through pictures, copy, and themes. Threats, pleas, and hard work marked the progress of Signa ‘68 to a finished yearbook. The staff has endeavored to capture the spirit of this year by “emphatically” exploring the life of Eastern High. Jo James, Editor of Signa ‘68. Zona Cobb Crowned Homecoming Queen Zona Cobb. The crisp, clear autumn night was filled with excitement and anticipation. The tension was intensified on this particular night. Homecoming, because although Eastern had never won a home¬ coming game, the success of the season justified hopes for break¬ ing the old record. Thirty shiny convertibles, graced by lovely girls representing each of the school clubs, slowly circled the field. Six senior girls had been chosen to compete for the title of Home¬ coming Queen. Zona Cobb received the coveted crown, and Debbie Crabtree was named Maid of Honor. Overall, the evening was a success. Many former students returned to visit with faculty and friends, and the football team experienced a tremendous victory. Maid of Honor Debbie Crabtree.

Is New Miss Eastern Thirty-one excited girls filed radiantly into Eastern’s gymnasium Saturday night, November 18. Although the judges’ ten minute delay caused an uproar among the contestants, Johnny Phelps, master of ceremonies, kept the audience amused with his “funny” jokes. As each girl completed her seemingly endless walk down the aisle, she returned to her seat to wait with nervous antici¬ pation. Finally, at ten o’clock, Debbie Crabtree received a bouquet of yellow roses and was crowned Miss Eastern of 1968. Runners- up were Jo Ellen Bradley, Margaret Satterfield, and Beverly Patton. Also for the first time in Eastern’s history, a Miss Congen¬ iality wa s chosen by the contestants. Jo Ann Young was selected for this honor.

' x ' y ;■ ' f mm Eagles Soar to Best Record Ever One of the main reasons for the Eagles’ fine reco rd was the hard work and driving enthusi¬ asm displayed by Coaches Fred Brady and Tad Martin. The 1967 football season saw an outstanding Eagle football team compile an overall 6-2-2 record, the finest ever at Eastern. This record enabled the Eagles to finish second in the Mid-State 3-A Conference and to win a berth in the district playoffs. In the first game of the season, the Eagles used a devastating pass¬ ing attack to chalk up their first victory of the season against a tough Southeast eleven by a score of 18-13. Thomas passed to Modlin and Anthony for two TD’s and ran over the winning tally. Eastern offense sets up to run bread-and butter play.

Offensive mistakes nullified a fine defensive effort led by Dodson and Ray. A balanced performance by both offensive and defensive units led the Eagles to a 20-0 verdict over Bartlett-Yancey. Thomas and Schoderbek scored on runs, and Thomas passed to Anthony for a TD. Hurdle and Dodson accounted for a safety to lead a fine defensive effort. In a hard-fought game, Eastern trimmed Ragsdale by a score of 13-6 for its second conference victory. Schoderbek scored the initial TD, and Thomas passed to Anthony for the winning tally. Eastern battled highly-touted arch-rival Graham to a 12-12 tie to capture a share of the conference lead.

The Eagles sustained a stunning blow as Northeast fought from a 26-0 half-time deficit to record a 27-26 victory. Thomas, Schoder- bek, and Bosquet ran over TD’s and Anthony caught a pass from Thomas for paydirt, but an unbelievable 27 points in the last half by the Rams ruined the night for the Eagles. Eastern won its first Homecoming game ever, with a resounding 39-0 triumph over Western. Anthony scored two TD’s while Schoderbek and Fonville each scored once. Thomas passed to Stout, and Bosquet connected with Smith for aerial TD’s. The Eagle defense, now known as the “Mean Green,” continued to haunt the opposition. Eastern and Morehead’s defensive units knocked heads for four grueling quarters. When the final gun sounded, the scoreboard revealed a 0-0 score. Wells, Rice, and Allen Ray received plaudits for their fine play. Steve Anthony (10) rambles to paydirt. Kent Smith (83) eludes defender and snares pass.

Ray and Dodson combined their defensive efforts to register a safety. Falling behind 6-0 at the outset of the ball game. Eastern fought back for a 20-6 victory over Southern. Thomas connected with Anthony for one TD and Anthony also rambled through the Con¬ federate line for two more scores. Gaping holes were opened by Browning and Watkins as they continued their fine play in the offensive line. Vic Stout (12) reaches full stride after taking screen pass. Cliff Thomas (20) turns play in as the “Mean Green” comes to the rescue. 79 Cagers Record The 1967 Eagle cagers, led by Coach Mike Clayton, reeled off thirteen straight victories before sustaining their first loss. The win skein was the longest ever accomplished by an Eastern team. This was a season for many records, as the Eagles also passed the century mark for the first time, with 106 points against Gibsonville. A sure two points as Willie Fonville (21) fires from the comer.

Making this potent offense click were the scoring duo of William Fonville and cousin Charles Fonville. The rebounding efforts of John Schoderbek marked the beginning of the offensive attack. Charlie Rembert destroyed many zones with his long-range shooting. The Eagles were no slouch on defense, either, with their full-court press, led by Cliff Thomas, forcing many turnovers. The cries of “get a clock” and “choke ’em” were heard many times as these cagers hit the floor during the season.

Expecting only a rebuilding season, Eastern’s wrestling team turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The loss of eight seniors from last year’s squad was lessened by the arrival of many new boys eager to learn and ready to continue the Eagles’ fine grappling record. Tri¬ captains Brady, Dodson, and Freshwater, each with at least three years’ experience, guided the newcomers and also increased their own skills. With this added experience, the Eagle grapplers appear to be contenders for the championship in years to come. Wesley Freshwater rides opponent for valuable time.

Golfers Make Arrowhead Second Home Having to replace four graduates from last year’s squad, Coach Tad Martin was pleased with the fine turnout for golf this spring. There was great competition for the starting positions, and everyone exhibited enthusiasm and tried hard for improvement. The experience gained by playing at Arrowhead gave the golfers a home advantage over their opponents. Lettermen from previous years provided leadership and helpful tips to the newer members of the team. The many days of practice paid off as the Eagles showed much improvement as the season progressed.

Under the capable leadership of Coach Caison, the team learned the finer points of the game. The return of three lettermen bolstered the chances for victory. Having played on their newly-acquired courts for a year, the Eagles for the first time enjoyed a home-court advantage. These significant factors and a vigorous training schedule prepared the Eagles for this fast-moving game.

Six returning starters formed the nucleus of this year’s team. The pitching staff was the strong point during the season, but due to poor hitting, there was rough going at times. The hitting picked up as the Eagle batters faced opposing pitchers for the second time. Coach Brady added a new phase of practice by hitting fly balls to the players in the football stadium. Night games played at Fairchild Park sparked new interest and en¬ thusiasm in the baseball program.

Much emphasis was placed on conditioning with the organization of Eastern’s first 100-Mile Club. Members of this club had to run an average of five miles a day.

Cheerleaders Spark the Spirited Beverly Patton Head Cheerleader More than fifty girls strained muscles and tested their stamina as they learned chants and practiced jumps in an attempt to gain a position on the varsity cheerleading squad. By student body vote, the number was narrowed to thirteen, and then work really began. Throughout the summer “vacation,” the girls made signs and perfected routines in preparation for the bonfire which officially opened the new sports season. As their work progressed, they became increasingly aware that dependability, determination, and school spirit were just as important for them as physical vitality. The cheer¬ leaders are an asset to the athletic teams, and they have been tireless in their efforts to boost spirit and to encourage good sportsmanship.

Posting a 6-1-1 record, the young Eagles gained valuable experience and appeared ready to compete on a varsity level. With most of their victories coming in con¬ ference play, Eagle fans clearly have more exciting football in store for them in the future. A fine offensive team coupled with a sturdy defensive unit meant defeat for their opponents, usually by overwhelming scores.

Eagles Repeat as Conference Contenders Getting off to a fast start, the J.V. Eagles raced to many victories during the season. A significant factor in the young Eagles’ surge was the use of a stringy man-to-man defense which allowed their opponents few points. Following the instructions of Coach Mac Bowman, the J.V.’s exhibited more poise and polish than their opposition.

Equipped with the pre¬ paration of four years of scholastic, social, and emotional growth, the seniors are ready now to progress to the world of college, marriage, the armed forces, or employment. They will long remember the tire¬ less efforts of faculty members who have guided them, and they will cherish memories of happy days spent with friends—laughing, work¬ ing, worrying, or just “goofing off.” As their high school years draw to a close, the graduating class reflect on friendships made and matured at Eastern and hope that these re¬ lationships will not dissolve as each moves on to another milestone in life.

(Not pictured, Donna Wilson, treasurer.) Juniors looked forward to the new experience of being upperclassmen. A new sense of leadership developed among its members. The year held moments of antici¬ pation, fear, doubt, truth, and happiness. Receiving important test scores, planning the junior-senior prom, measuring for class rings, striving to make the honor roll, and preparing for college were only a few of the activities that filled the year. Plans for future years evolved, and students with high scholastic ambitions worked to gain stronger footholds in the many areas of study. Heavier reading assignments, more homework, and improved study habits became necessary. During the junior year, students experienced a new sense of direction and maturity. They were preparing for the fast approaching senior year.

They were able to join more clubs, and some were elected to the Keyettes and Key Club. In the field of athletics, sophomore boys participated vigorously in junior varsity basketball and football, and several became members of the golf, tennis, track, and wrestling teams. Although there are no sports teams for female participation, the girls exerted much energy in cheering for the junior varsity teams. Turning to a more serious side of high school life, sophomores enjoyed a most interesting study of Silas Marner and Julius Caesar. They were also given the opportunity to watch the microscopic world come to life before their eyes in the biology lab. Overall, the sophomores experienced an interesting year of growth.

Advanced studies and club membership proved intriguing to freshmen with inquisitive minds. As the days passed, class enthusiasm grew, and freshmen became a part of high school life. They had their first opportunity to join the Physical Science and Health Careers clubs, and to take part in all the various school activities. They learned to appreciate the importance of education and welcomed a chance to increase it. As individual abilities were recognized and developed, the growth in responsi¬ bility extended to the home, school, and community. The fresh¬ men showed wisdom and foresight in preparing for the remainder of their high school years, and pride was the reward for excellence.
