Dear East High, You Are The School For Me !
Scalp 'em Scarlets, Ugh!
The "BIG FIVE OH" is now in the history books and a great time was had by all of us who were able to attend.
Here it is - the Class Picture taken at the 50th Reunion. Printed copies were provided at the
Saturday evening event by the photographer, Eric O'Connor of "Mullicastudio".
Here is the "Class of 1956 Response" speech given by Lyle Simpson at the Thursday evening "129th Annual East High Alumni Dinner".
I have five sets of candid photos taken at reunion events by classmates:
These by Janeene (Miller) Carlisle
These by Tom Fjelde
These by Suzanne (Samo) Newton
These by Tom Pierick
These by Sharon (Burris) Howse
Here is the Class Picture taken at the 45th Reunion.
Here are a group of candid shots from reunion festivities provided by Janeene (Miller) Carlisle, Bob Trotter, Suzanne (Samo) Newton, Sharel (Truers) Spendlove, and Deanna (Wheatly) Peterson.
Having a little trouble matching faces with names? Maybe this will help. Following are links to pages which show names with the faces for each row in the photo above. I also put in the year book photo so you can see what your classmate looked like in 1956.

Second Row
Third Row
Fourth Row
Fifth Row
The class met at Pagliai's Pizza in Johnston on September 25th for one of the 45th reunion planning sessions.
Pictures are here. Thanks to Janeene (Miller) Carlisle for passing them on.
Further closet cleaning (it's a BIG closet) yielded more treasure. Thanks, Mom, for never throwing anything away! Take a look at the programs for graduation, class night, and baccalaureate.
The 1953 graduating class of Woodrow Wilson Junior High School is (still) here.

Thinking about someone you knew in high school but not certain which class they were in? East High class of 1957 is here
and 1958 is here.
The 45th Reunion Page is here. Check back frequently for
updates and pictures of the event. The June, 2001 NewsLink had all the pre-event information. It is now
On-Line and can be read using the link provided above.
Below are some pages form the January and June 1956 Quill. I imagine more than a few members
of our class are having difficulty remembering where they put their treasured copy.
These images are fairly large and will
take a while to download unless you have a high speed Internet connection. Oh well, the're worth waiting for!
Here are the covers.
Here are the pictures of the January Class Officers.
Here are the pictures of the June Class Officers.
Here is the Janaury Class Board.
Here is the June Class Board.
Following references are to individual pages of Year Book pictures, indexed by name

Enjoy!
