ANY notable deeds have been accomplished in life by individualistic effort. Greater and more sustained accomplishments have been brought to completion, however, by cooperative organizations. This publication, and the events and achievements it chronicles, are examples of the latter. Herein are listed, not the deeds of stars and super-men, but the records of teams and organizations belonging to Central. This is the point of emphasis of modern education properly conceived-the necessity and value of team work. Upon this foundation is built our American institutions. It is the essence of good citizenship. Only through its operation can the problems of industry be solved. This, we think, is, in part, the justifica- tion of OLII' extra-curricular activities. May ye who read, be not only entertained, but edified. I Page I2

S a parting word I should like to urge every member of the class of 1932 to cultivate a deep and lasting interest in some field of activity other than the regular daily work, in other words, to have a Worthy hobby. In this day many people have a great deal of' leisure timeg but even after the present depression has passed and work has been more equitably divided among all people, there will still be more leisure than any previous generation has known. According to all indications the old proverb, that a certain gentleman of very eyil reputation is only too ready to suggest activities for leisure time, still holds good. lt is well, therefore, if we can get ahead of this crafty old wretch and till our leisure with good things of our own choosing. Such good things for example might he the pursuit of music or of other arts, the study of literature, languages, history, sciences, and countless other tields of knowledge and endeavor. Oh! The joys and wealth that may be ours in time of leisure! Pagai I4
