MISS SADIE B STEWART Those of us who have worked with Miss Stewart have learned to look for her ready wit, her contagious enthusiasm, and her bound- less energy. We have especially appreciated these qualities because they have done so much for the sale of our ECI-lo. MR. CHARLES GONTRUM A very important role was played by Mr. Gontrum behind the scenes in his able man- agement of the advertising of our Ecx-lo. .fd jtidufe The old order changeth, yielding place to new . . . There was an element of sadness in our return to Eastern this year, sadness because we returned to find two well-loved members of our faculty gone. The retirement of Miss Agnes E. Buchholz and Miss Mary C. Anderson was not only a personal loss to '41, but a loss to Eastern as well. Miss Buchholz has for more than twenty-five years held a very special place in the hearts of Eastern High School girls and in the history of Eastern High School. Having more or less grown up with Eastern, she played an important part in the formation of the ideals and traditions of our school. Whole-heartedly and tirelessly she gave of her strength and wisdom in the development of the intangible thing which we know today as the Spirit of Eastern. In the activities of the girls Miss Buchholz played an active part. The classes for which she was adviser were outstanding classes, for they had an outstanding adviser. An ex- cellent coach, Miss Buchholz played an active part in the school's dramatics. Wise in counsel, strong in loyalty, great in understanding, she has been to many Eastern girls the ideal teacher. Embodied in the physical frailty of Miss Anderson was a strong personality. We knew her as one whose strong sense of right was a dominating characteristic. We saw her face light up with a smile as her keen sense of humor responded to an awakening chord. A gentle, kind friend, loyal to her school, her col- leagues, and her students, Miss Anderson is one of those rare people whom we consider it a privilege to know. So we say again, Eastern has suffered a great loss. Yet we know that through their association with these splendid teachers, Eastern and Eastern girls have gained much that cannot be lost.

MISS ALICE WHITE Athletic Adviser In the vivid personality and effi- cient leadership of our athletic advisers, we find the reason for our success in the world of sports. Best of all, she has given us her own high standards of fair play. MISS ROSE O. WICKES Whenever we have especially needed a friend, we have turned to Miss Wickes, in whom we never failed to find calm judgment, tolerance, and generous assistance.
