Here at Central We are quite proud of our Parent-Teacher-Student association. This service organization has been a part of Central since our first year in our present building, 1910. In addition to providing welfare assistance when necessary, our P.-T.-S.-A. held regular busi- ness meetings, closing each with a social hour. Their most outstanding undertaking of the year was the Open House, held in the evening so that fathers as Well as mothers might attend. This event, a feature of American Education Week, attracted parents for dinner, a short business ses- sion, entertainment provided by the Pride of O.H.S,,,, our band, and visitation to classrooms.

These board members select super- intendents and assistants, who assign positions in the school system. Other duties include making decisions to buy property, to erect new buildings or to renovate old ones, to re-district the city in order to avoid overcrowding certain schools, and to submit levies to the vote of the citizens to insure pro- -7- vision of necessary funds. Extensive repairing and renovating of Cen- tral, carried on during the past two years, are examples of the arrangements made to keep our city schools in satisfactory operating condition.

EMMARAY CLARK Although present only one day, Mrs. Em- maray Clark is listed on this yearis faculty. She came to OHS, her alma mater, as English and social studies teacher in the fall of 1955. Her cheerfulness, patience, sense of humor, and devo- tion to duty were qualities she showed both in her teaching and in her caring for her invalid hus- band. Succumbing to leukemia, on December 9, 1958, after a long and gallant struggle, she left us the memory of a dear friend and teacher. And gladly did she learn and gladly teachf' -Cardinal Stag ,13- with courage. -Phillip Ellis Not only did she teach the basic funda- mentals of her subjects, but also she taught the basic rules of living. -F lorine Dotson She always found time to help everyone, and was kind to everyone. She did not seem to have any favorites. Her students felt free to call her at her home in the evening or during the weekend for extra help with school assignments or solving personal problems. She always seemed to have the right answer. -Phillip Ellis For services renderecl--- Thanks ! When Mr. Breithaupt attended Washburn College, in Kansas, he was an All-American basketball player on the national championship college team. This year he attended a reunion of his teammates and their coach. He is shown here with our basketball trophy, won this spring for finishing first in the Capital Conference. Former Central student Mr. A. E. Phillips, who has taught mechanical drawing at O.H.S. for twenty-two years, retires this year. Many of his students have become notably successful in the field of engineering drawing. Often called Mr. Centralf' he will be greatly missed by students and teachers. Mr. A. E. Phillips shows Frecl Stephens the future in architecture and tells of the money earned. Frecldieis interested! in XIX .ai-u We brought home the bacon again! Chuck Price, Mr. Clarence Breithaupt. Mr. B. H. Thomas is retiring this spring after teaching printing at Central for thirty years. Many of his former students, because of his instruction, have succeeded in the printing field, even With- out further training. Faculty members and students wish Mr. Thomas a uhappy retirementlv Mr. B. II. Thomas and George Hall compare notes for that next printing assignment. George may become a masterprinter! -141 .l i f . . . me v P' . 1. ,, ,L , V. , . A ,V , K Y I X, 5 vi 5, , ,,,. .

They also do a great job of serving for special affairs such as meetings and luncheons, whether held during the day, at night, or on Saturday. We appreciate the good nature and friend- liness of our cafeteria staff. Back row: john Akey, Cliff Clemons, Ierry McCutcheon. Second row: Robert Barnes, F. D. Huggins, A. C. Nix.

CUSTODIANS What would Central look like without our custodians? Of course we do all we can to keep it nice and clean, but a custodianis job is more than just picking up paper that some thoughtless student has left behind. Our custodians water the lawn and keep it mowed, cultivate flowers and shrubs, take care of the equipment in and around school, hang pictures, run the elevator for those who cannot get up and down the stairs, and even move those big heavy pianos from room to room or on and off the stage. Thanks, and congratulations for a job well- done! Ray Messer. Mr. Huggins died shortly after this picture was taken. . ,xx , X N X K , 1: 1 2 an it.s 'im' il p.WV 1 ijigigfigaf' E ,,. , .

We are now the Senior Class of Central High School! It seems only yesterday that we returned from vacation, as seniors, and now it is almost time for us to graduate. Where have our senior play, our luncheon, and our Iunior-Senior prom gone? Although a number will go to higher schools of learning, for most of us, this will end our formal education. Some will go into the fhfmed Forces, and more into marriage and the raising of future Centralites. 1959 was the second year for television classes in our city, we studied Math Analysis, science, and the VVorld Series by TV. This was the year for changes: hula hoops came in, Elvis Presley went out Cfor a whilel, our styles returned to the twenties, short hair was a must, and last but not least-long socks were back, These were happy, frustrating, exciting, busy, and hectic days to fill our last year at Central. VVe all know that these many events may never be re-lived, but what a wonderful time we will have remembering!

RAMSHACKLE INN Ramshackle Inn,', an exciting three-act play by George Batson, tells of an old maid librarian, Miss Belinda Pryde, Who has saved her money for twenty years in nickels and dimes in order to buy a hotel. Her ideas of a hotel are not anything like the hotel she gets when she arrives to take over the Olde Colonial Inn. She also hopes to meet interesting people, because she just loves peoplelv What she gets is a strange, gloomy, tumble down place near the ocean-but she does meet interest- ing people-not the kind she could love, however. She takes possession on a Wild stormy night when the activities of a gang of racketeers, who have the hotel as their headquarters, reach a climax. She encounters murders, secret trunks, and corpses. Finally, she solves the mystery, and, single-handed, disposes of one villain after another.

They also engage in annual Faculty-O Club basketball games, and hold a picnic each spring for members and their dates.

FOOTBALL Scoring the most points and winning the most games of any Central football team since 1953, the Cards ended the season with a 3-6 record and scored 156 points. Preceding the regular season, Central won both scrimmage games, one with Edmond and one with Chandler. EAST 42 WEST 24 Five secondary schools located west of Shartel and six located east of Shartel participated in a Round Robin game. Each team played eight to ten minutes. Before a crowd of 8,000, Central Cardinals, playing for the east, boosted the score eight points while they were in the game, the touchdown pass being made by Woodrow Burley, left tackle for the Cards. This year's Round Robin game was the first since 1950. Other Round Robin games were played in '42 and '44, Each high school in the city received a profit of 8929.45 from the game played this year. CENTRAL 16 ANADARKO 22 Only fourteen seconds remained when Ana- darko went ahead to a 22-16 victory for the climax of Centralfs first football game of the 1958 season. Lightning can strike twice in the same place, last year, Anadarko scored a winning point with forty seconds to go. CENTRAL 0 NORTHEAST 32 Central held the Northeast line to 8-0 in the first half. Pulling themselves together, the Vikings rolled up three more touchdowns in the second half, for a 32-0 victory. CENTRAL 16 JOHN MARSHALL 0 As the rain. was pouring down, Central took advantage of five Iohn Marshall fumbles and swam off with a 16-0 victory. ,611 CENTRAL 22 HARDING 66 Central Redbirds netted 279 yards through the air, but were helpless on the ground against the Harding Eagles. Lee, the big man on defense for Harding, picked off three stray Central passes, two of them leading to touchdowns in the final eleven seconds of the game. CENTRAL 22 SOUTHEAST 36 Central made a real battle of this game, trail- ing only 36-22 and threatening midway through the third quarter. CENTRAL 28 CROOKED OAK 14 Playing our most exciting football game, the Cards scored a 28-14 victory over the Crooked Oak Roughnecks for the second winning game of the season. This represented a 100 per cent im- provement over the 1956, '57, and '58 seasons, when the Cards won only one game each year. CENTRAL 16 CLASSEN 24 Before what must have been the smallest crowd in the history of the long series of Classen and Central games, the Comets scored a 24-16 victory. This game evens the winnings at 15-15. Playing without Burley, whose passing helped in Centralls three victories, the Cards were unable to put together a winning combination. CENTRAL O U. S, GRANT 62 U. S. Grant Generals, conference champs, scoring nearly every time they had possession of the ball, ran and passed to an overwhelming victory of 62-0. CENTRAL 20 MCGUINNESS 12 Using a flashy aerial attack to score two touchdowns and set up a third, the Cardinals up- set the Irish 20-12. This was a satisfactory conclus- ion to the most successful football season O.H.S. had experienced since 1953.

This was not quite up to the record the Redbirds set in 1957, when they won twelve out of twelve. In '58, the Cards finished third in the conference, Winning six out of twelve, and were .500 for the entire season. Coached by Iack Ray, the Cards used speed and hustle, rather than height like most of the high schools. Centralis quintette is the smallest in. the Capital Conference, with three of the start: ing five standing less than six feet. Even when the chips were down, the Cardinals seemed to come up from behind to win most of their games. During the john Marshall and Harding games, there were two overtimes played. Central is losing three of the starters this year, joe Plumlee, Woodrow Burley, and Chuck Price. Runner-up trophy in the OBU Schoolboy Tournament, held in Shawnee, Oklahoma, went to the Redbirds, as they defeated Wewoka and Anadarko, and lost to Shawnee. Although hampered during three weeks of the season by illness, Chuck Price, leading scorer, made All-City and All-Conference first teams. Making All-Conference first and All-City second teams was Woodrow Burley. Ioe Plumlee made All-City honorable mention. ...641 Y. to Oklahoma's name !

GIRLS' O CLUB After many years of being inactive, the Girls, O Club, under the leadership of Mrs. jo Leta Tilley, got into full swing again in 1957 and has continued through this year. Purpose of the Girls' O Club is to help en- courage school spirit among the students here at Central, and mainly among the girls themselves. Softball, volleyball, basketball, table tennis, badminton, tennis, and swimming were the sports participated in this year. These girls helped Central to uphold the trait of good sportsmanship. Proving their sportsmanship by hard but clean playing, they also gave fifteen rahs for their opponents after each game. By selling combs, pencils, cookies, and pop- corn, the girls hoped to meet their goal of obtain- ing a sweater for each girl who lettered in sports. One of their main activities was the Christmas dance held in the recreation room, to which the O Club boys were invited. Holding offices in the Girls, O Club were Eleanor Cole, president, Marie Hawkins, vice- president, Mary Lee Tramel, secretary, Sharon Eakes, treasurer, lane Thorne, historian, Claudia Hash and D,Ann Buoy, sergeants-at-arms, with Joe Plumlee as their beau. -53- ? old Central over all !

VVe have also participated in the Fair Day Parade, the Central State Homecoming parade, and the Guthrie '89ers, Day parade. This year, sponsored by Mr. Hay Gudenburr, we marched in the Governor's Inaugural Day parade, and also entered Tri-State in Enid. At the 1958 Fun Night, our skit was the 4'Edie R. Murrow Show, People to Peoplef, held in the Cardinal Room. All seniors who have been in drill for three years are awarded trophies, those with two years of service are given medals, these awards are pre- sented in the annual Awards Assembly in March. To add a manly touch to this yearls Drill Team, we elected as beaux Fred Stephens and Ray Rich. Fred received his I.D. bracelet at the annual Founders' Day banquet, and Ray received his during the regular drill class. -74, wr,-...li iiiimn , Ak.

It has been said that Central Without Red Shirts would be like Romeo without Juliet, which we believe is a true statement. This year, our Hfty members have provided Central with leaders for clubs, with talent for assemblies, with athletes for sports, with escorts for queens and attendants, and with pep and cheer at all school events. -78.- W 1 A dollar ! as G A Back row: Gary Driskill, Mark Taylor, chap., 1, sec., 2, James Duffy, Sgt.-at-arms, lg Gene Bucy, Max Harrison, pres., 2, Grant Bell.

Red Skirts, sister cluh to Red Shirts, was the first girls, pep cluh to he formed west of the Mississippi River. Chartered in 1929, disbanded, then reorgan- ized in 1930, they have tirelessly supported OHS with their loyalty and service. Members are re- quired to attend all toothall and haskethall games. Among our many activities this year, we have ushered for the Shrine Circus and served a hanquet for the Cattlemenis convention.

BAND Since 1920, the Central band has been The Pride of OHS7 Central was the first high school in the state to have a uniformed band. In 1923 and in 1925, the band placed in national contests held in Chicago and Kansas City, in 1924, the group was chosen by the Chamber of Commerce to make a good will tour of the state. By 1935, the band had grown to a membership of 120 pieces, and in 1936, after adding forty members, it was the largest in the state, and was all male. Girls were represented in the band, for the first time in the schoolis history, in 1942. Annual events through the years have been the Central State Homecoming parade, the Arm- istice Day Parade, the Capitol Hill Homecoming parade, and also Cuthrieis ,89ers, Day parade. We have also participated in district contests held in Norman, in Enid, and at Oklahoma City Univer- sity. Other yearly events have been the crowning of the Band Queen, the sponsoring of Fun Night, and participating before football games and in half-time shows. Our band has also furnished 18Q.... music for pep assemblies. Other yearly events of the band are the Christmas concert and the spring concert. Under the direction of Mr. Ray Cudenburr, sponsor, assisted by the drum major, David Black, Centralis band had a big year in 1958, too. This was the year the new band room was built, and the year new uniforms for the majorettes were purchased. We have participated this year in five parades, and in three contests on concert styling. Our band has worked very hard on paper drives and candy sales to raise money for a band trip to end the year. 'The Pride of OHSH was one of thirteen high school bands from Oklahoma City chosen to participate in the Inaugural Day parade given in honor of Oklahomais new governor, Howard Edmondson, Americais youngest governor. As it looks now, the band will grow in size next year to about 100, and will continue to repre- sent Central as it has in the past years. Vle had rhythm ! 1' Back row: Lonnie Hewell, james Rentfro.

We organized in October of' this school year, 1958. Purpose of the club is to create enthusiasm and interest in speech work, as there are not any national speech clubs open to eighth graders. One nice thing about the club is that we meet once a week-during our speech class. Require- ments for members are to be an eighth grade speech student and to wear a membership patch on meeting days. We are not only a speech club, but also a service club. As an example, we used our speech talents to present an assembly on Do,s and Donitsfi As an excursion trip, we toured the tele- phone company.
