f -t 9,un,, Qadd cmd Qcmciw November 9, saw many East High girls garbed in men's shirts on backwards, with silk scarves around their necks. You're right, it was Senior Farmers Day at East. You can imagine the sur- prised expression of the Armistice Day speaker when he saw half of his audience dressed as Donna Mislon, Dolores Elwood, Jennie Kluz, Kay Hed- rick, and Karin Hedlin, were in this picture. Another fad that lasted longer and was really fun was Nuke playing. The year l950 hnally found East Highers playing ukes at parties, club meetings, and informal get-togethers. Tom Scifo, Jean Anderson, Tom Valentine, Mavis Carlson, and Wzxrren Landstrom, were caught strumming and humming at a joint Hi-Y and Y-Teen meet- ing. Did Arthur Godfrey ever expect this? Though harmful initiations are not approved of at East, some harmless fun is, and here Lucy Pottinger carries, as penalty for being initiated, a well-loaded lunch tray for the senior members of GAA. Part of Ruthie Lindskold's ABL initiation job was to push a pencil with her nose across the Little Theatre stage floor. Later ABL had a pot-luck supper in the cafe- teria where new members waited on the older ones and ate jello and spaghetti with their fingers. Some of the pins used to identify various club members at East are shown at the left. K ,
