'tis spring again and time for the annual review of the highlights of the Class of Forty-six. To begin with, our class got well under way with the production of its Iunior Play, You Can't Take Ir With You, which was a box-office sell-out, and featured such excellent performers as Dolores Evans, Betty Murray, Billie Marie Howell, lack Vaughn, Bill Hughes, Walter Thayer, and others equally well portrayed. Our class also boasts of the fact that it possesses many of the star athletes of this school. For instance, gaining popularity in basketball are Iohn Haney, C. Nloore, Bob Entzminger, and Vernon Forsheeg and in football are Bill Ryder and Monte Hoke. It is evident, too, that the Class of Forty-Six is rapidly taking over the leadership of the school. Bob Moore is serving as president of Red Shirts, succeed- ing Tenal Wehba, also a junior, who is now president of the Masquers. An officer in the Ieffs is lack Vaughn, and Bill Hughes is standard bearer for the Ieffs and the Red Shirts. And what could be a more fitting climax for the year than the unforgettable get-together we term the Iunior-Senior Prom? It is almost an impossibility for us to describe this gala event, since it was so extraordinary that even the faculty rightfully admitted that students can be ladies and gentlemen on occasion. Thus we complete the review of the year for one of the most colorful classes in Central's history-the Class of 1946.

However, the Class of Forty-Seven, being rather superior Qin their own eyes, at leastj, soon became accustomed to the traditions and customs of Central. Already members of this class have shown their ability in athleticsg in particular, Dan Vaughn, Iack Roberts, and Perry Iackson, who have lettered' this year. In fine arts there are also examples of sophomore talentg Tommy Crane seems to be a prospect for special work in Conger's Deng while gaining recognition in the music department are Norma Waldo, Pat Haney, and Ralph Meador. This auspicious start seems to indicate that in two years these sophomores may creditably take their places among the prominent leaders of Central High School for all time.

His playing ability indicates that he will develop into a great full- bacln lill already has two touch- downs to his credit. LESLIE MING Leslie, a senior and captain of the 1944 team, was named on the all- city, all - district, and all - state teams because of his ability to shatter the lines of the opposition with his powerful plunges. Les was also a threat as a passer. CARDS G CO4 hqzrdf' DuPriHADUPRE5 helpingi' a wsndsrisrqn, C Dun Ulm 'rm ouch rg 1 at, Q ' r grand,-,Lis alsa Q :lr greaysxg In 0 U I1 . WI.

Bob held his position well, and the opposition found it very hard to break through the line where he was playing. HARRY PALMER Harry will be greatly missed next year. He ir an excellent kicker and proved it in the first game with Perry when he made the kickoff from behind our goal-post ta the opposition's goal. Harry played end and very often would intercept the passes. RAYMOND CARR Raymond, who held the end the line intact very ably, was pass receiver few ends can equw Ray, a senior, was a threat to t enemy all season with his bloc ing and speed. HAROLD MERIDETH Merideth, center, is the smallest man an the team. He is little but mighty, particularly an the de- fense. Merideth also made the all-city team. PAT KNOX Pat, our senior tailbaek, is ane of the finest and most dependable passers in the state. His accurate passing and fine playing ability won him a place on the all-city eleven. Pat is also a two-year lot- terman. ' BROWN John, wha played better than average brand of football all year, is known for his power in really stacking it up while on the de- fense. WAYNE BURROWS Wayne, who is a senior, finished his third year of football last fall. He has played a lot of bang-up football as a tackle on both the offense and defense. Wayne's og- gressiveness won him a place an the all-city team. .NM IENNCTT BOB DAVIS BILL HUFFMAN ED GARIIETT BILL WALLACE Mole lettered as a water boy his first year out, then came out lar the team and lettered as a fine guard in his senior year. He also won a place on the all-city scrub team. MONTY HOKE A fine player with a lot of aggres- siveness is Manty, and his excel- lent playing as a guard will fur- nish him a solid place an the Car- dinal eleven next year. Jim, who had lettered two years in Hobart, came here and did the same. He has been a great asset to the team as a wingback. His most spectacular ploy of the year was against Shawnee, when in the second half he caught the kickoff ond made lar a marker, which gave us a tie and paved the way tor our later victory ot 20-I2. LETS GOI DON WELKER Don does an excellent iob as a blocking back, and as he is a jun- ior, he will be back next year to help bring fame to the old Alma Mater. BILL SOUTHERN Bill, o senior, was an outstanding guard an the team all year. He won a place on the all-district team because of his sure block- ing and hard tackling. BOB VAUGHN Bob is a fine blocker and kicker. His ability to play any position in the bockfield has brought him much praise from the coaches and his team mates. Bob, a senior, is CentraI's only four letter mon, having participated in football, basketball, baseball, and track. TOM PHILLIPS Yom, a senior, played o great many games this year and proved his ability as a fine wingbock. Tom is o two year lctterman, and the coaches would certainly like to have him back next fall, CHARLES MISKOVSKY Charles is a iunior and a very able center. He will ploy a lat al ball and go a long way next year be- cause of his ability to keep calm. cool, and collected while in a pinch. TOMMY HORD Tommy, known for his clear think- ing ability and calm acting on the field, played as a great tackle this year. Our only regret is that he will not be back next year. Playing his first year ol football was Bob Davis, our most consis- tent guard. Bob is a senior and will be hard to replace next year. Although Huff is usually known for his defensive play, he was quite the star on the offensive in many games when he would catch a pass from Knox and go over for a touchdown. This big burly junior is a tackle who lettered when a sophomore. Ed is looking forward to next year and bears promise of becoming a headache far his opposition. Q V .. . ,. FO0TB ll SQUA FIRST Row.

These gals have it! It doesn't take long for one to discover the pep of the Red Skirts and recognize the club as one of the leading organizations at Central. Red Skirts can be found at all football and basketball games, and their cheering at pep assemblies makes you realize what Central means to them. Their Drum and Bugle Corps, under the competent direction of Mary Helen Iones, is the best of its kind in Oklahoma. This year something new has been added -the twirlers, Dortha Spence and Sue Swartwood. Among the Red Skirt social activities for the year, an outstanding event was their annual banquet for the football team, at which Rose Marie Smith ably presided as toastmistressg also the beautiful Holiday Dance, and the Spring Dance. The members have contributed of their time and talent this year in presenting the Red Skirt Minstrel, giving and decorating the Christmas trees for Teen Town , and ushering on numer- OUS OCCZISIOUS.

The outstanding activity of the club the first semester was the Red Shirt Minstrel with Tenal Wehba, president, as lnterlocutor, ably assisted by end men lack Swidensky, Sam Fair, M. L. Leffel, Frank Wright, Lyndell Buck and Iames Pierce. The proceeds were used to buy furniture for the office of boys' counselorg and a second performance given at night donated the proceeds to the P.-T..A. The pledge class was under the supervision of Charles Harris, who also did a swell job as business manager of the Cardinal yearbook. The destinies of the second semester were guided by Bill Moore, and the outstanding event of his administration was the rollicking good time the boys had with their fathers on March 23rd. In the Student Council, a Red Shirt served as president both semesters-Dahl Brown, the firstg' and Walt Horner, the second. Among the club's social activities, all will remember the Christmas Dance, and the Spring Dance in May, at which events appeared the two Red Shirt Sweethearts-Bettie Phillips and Dqlores Brogan.

Starting the year's activities with a Founders' Day Banquet in the Civic Room of the Biltmore Hotel, the girls displayed the originality and ability which makes an organization gather prestige and set precedents. The girls on the Planning Committee were Evelyn Basinger, Theodora Anthony, and Tommy Ioyce Brantley To finance the activities of their club, the Black Skirts have ushered at the Mlinicipal Auditorium and Taft Stadium. The usher captains, whose diligence was largely responsible for the attendance and efficiency of the usherettes, were Mary Limber and lean Henry. Equally important events were the Christ- mas Ring Dance, Spring Dance, and Pledge Round-Up Dance.

The Black Shirts furnish a very special part of the activities of the school. ln addition to their vociferous cheering at all games, they make up the group that does. all of the stage work for Central's productions, with Carl Gadd as stage manager. They helped with the ushering for the college football games at Taft Stadium, and were responsible for the beautiful decorations in the girls' gym for the Christmas Teen Town . The social calendar for the Black Shirts began with the annual outing one week before school opened last fall. This was followed, during the year, by two hayrack rides, a Wiener roast, the Classen-Central Prevue at the Uptown, and their annual Christmas formal. Their second semester activities were climaxed with the Spring Dance. V Fmsr Sexnssrm OFFICERS SECOND SEMESTER I. W.

More than five hundred blue stars and twenty-five gold stars have been placed on the flag since our entry into the war. The speaking parts were outstandingly presented by Willis Threlkeld, Walter Thayer and Donald Iames. Other activities included the party for the rushees, a steak fry at Will Rogers Park, the Christmas Party with the usual white elephant exchange, and the stag banquet at the Biltmore Hotel in Ianuary. Participation in the various speech tournaments in Oklahoma City and throughout the state has been a part of the activities of the Ciceronians, and they concluded their second semester with a party honoring the graduating seniors.

Loan Drive, played for the teachers' meeting in November, and also played out at Douglas for the defense workers. Small groups of the band played for the Salvation Army pots on the downtown streets at Christmas time. One of its main assemblies was the coronation of their beautiful band queen, Sylvia Burgess. In Feb- ruary the band appeared in formal concert with Mr. Boh Makovsky as guest conductor, and Mr. Iames Neilson as guest artist. Besides all these outside activities, the band contributed much to the pep and enthusiasm at football and basketball games. . URCIIESTRA Quality rather than quantityi' could very easily be the motto of Centralis orchestra. It may not .be the largest organization at Central, but it contains some very promising musicians. This year the orchestra has been very fortunate in obtaining as their new director Mr. Goodsell, who had played for twelve years in the Philadelphia Symphony. Because of transportation difficulties, the orchestra was unable to enter the Tri-State contest at Enid this year. ln addition to furnishing music for various school functions, the orchestra gave a spring concert. An annual picnic is among the social activities of this group. ROSTER .

YE CICERONIAN SOCIETY OF UNEXCELLED DEBATERS One feller sez to 'nother feller, sez he, Don't you think that that Sisseronian Debatin' Society up at Central High School is just about the best club you ever seen in yore life? Sez t'other feller to th: first feller, I shore do, now.

Why, do you know all it has done for this here school? Keepin' the Service Flag, promotin' forensick activities through our school, and doin' all them other things that it does do.

Order finally got. Minutes were read and explained to Piggy Shelton. The President asked for any bold--er-a-old business. Booam Down rose to give treasurer's report, but Theethedoora Antony moved to dispense with the treasurer's report. It was discovered that she owed 25C besides her assessments, dues, fines for talking in meeting, etc. As she only had 24c, she asked for someone with sporting blood to meet her outside immediately. She and Fatsy Pagan retired to the hallway. The treasurer then continued with her report and read the names of those who are, to leave meeting because of unpaid debts. The President then wished to vote on a date for the Spring Formal, but since we've hardly a quorum left to vote, it was decided to wait until next meeting. Doggy Cordell moved that Mary Slimber take off her mask since Hallowe'en is over. It wasn't a mask. Doggy fined IOC. Meeting was then adjourned. , . I Resolutely submitted, IEAN PUNCTURE BALLAD OF THE JUBILANT JEFFS Say, pardner, you know those two clubs, The ones down at Central High? To which would you rather' belong- Can you tell me this, and why? Yeah Man I can answer that And not even have to try, For the Cices are not in the runnin' While the Ieffs say Do or Die, Now the members thereof are a rugged bunch, Why they even have hair on their chest: ' They go in for sports, tooth and toenail, And never seem to rest. While Sissies are a puny lot Who must have their vitamin pills, 'They must take care and watch their sleep ln order to overcome their ills. The leffs, I see, debate a bit too, And they do it with quite a punch. So Cices beware, when you talk against them, Or at least, that would be my hunch. So all in all, I'm lad I'm a jeff, But the Cites , tiey, too, are swell. We have our arguments among ourselves, But for Central, we both fight like-well! gjenuag pjo spoux asnl 'll zmaipq IAUOP noif jj . SEPTEMBER NUVEMBEV' DECEMBER ocrogf, 0487 'YA FULL BACK Scovu. L.
