LOWER RIGHT PICTURE A gnoup of students get into that ol' line to reserve their tickets for Fall Play. All a Part of East ltis the little things that really hold the school year together. Auds, firedrills, and chest x-rays are samples. They aren't as glamorous or as well advertised as the Spring Dance or the Plays, but they are a definite part of East. Auds are held just about every week, but they are all different - speeches, awards, pep sessions, professional entertainment, and talent shows. These Unusuals in our days also contribute to our education. East's students will not soon forget the time they had to hold their breath for just about an hour during chest X-rays. Fire- drills, which are usually looked upon wth favor by all students, help teach the need of fire preven- tion. Even burying tickets for the Fall Play was fun. Standing in that ol' line was a good time to catch up on all' the gossip.

In a pe-p Aud before East took the state cham- pion ship, Pat Richter and Ann McCormick show a little of the en- thusiasm which spur the team onto the heights of victory and fame. During tournament week, team backing was :not only shown in the Pep Auds and at the gamers, but the -students carrie-d their school spirit everywhere they went. Doing some im- promptu cheering in the cafeteria are: C. Oliver- son, M. Evans, D. Levary, P. Nylami, B. Kristenson, C'. O'Brien, C. Mueller, P. Hofplrins, and J. Forsmo. Welcome, Champs! On the Monday after THE BIG GAME praise was literally showered upon Eastis State Basketball Champs. Jubilantly a special auditorium program was pre- pared to honor the boys who brought home the first State Basketball Championship in East's 36 year history. Foster S. Randle, Lew Cornelius, Monte McCormick, Marshall Brown, and of course, Coaches Verlyn Belisle and Herbert Mueller took their turns at the mike. Bill Mueller, Senior Class vice-president, had the honor of MC-ing the program. Thundering applause, all but shook the rafters loose when Coach Belisle presented the 1958 State Basketball Championship Trophy to East High. Principal A. J. Bar- rett accepted it on behalf of the school. It's safe to say the day when the '58 State Champs came home will never be forgotten! -21..
