I charge you to join firmly and to hold truly to that evet-increasiug group of : truly educated persons who seek to push backward the barriers of map's ignor- ance; to heal the wounds of man's prejudices, and to add to the sumiof human goodness.

What are the head- lines? Let's see: Joe Wesley Mack wins a Gold Medal Award. The award was for possessing the best Jazz Band in the United States. He sent for William Henry, who was attending school at Lincoln University, seven years ago. William left at once carrying with him his only possess- ioh, a tenor sax. Irma Henderson has been the well known vocalist since this band's existence. In Hayti we find Katherine Pride at Quality Cleaners. Katherine plans to go to St. Louis for the weekend. Claudia Jefferies is still in Hayti waiting for the right man to come along. Johnnye Robinson is head waitress at the Midway Cafe. Look who just drove up: Lizzie Gooden. Judging from the uniform she's wearing, she just got off from work at the Memorial Hospital. The new addition of Lilboutn's Project has been increased by one houseil Shirley Wand and others reside there. Mercer Spencer is still carrying on her MC talent. She is in St. Louis working at Radio Station CJRT operating with 10,000 Kilowatts. Ftizella Tteadwell, an Elementary Ed. Teach- et in Ohio, is on a short vacation in St. Louis. She informs us that Senora Walls works at the City Hospital in Cleveland practicing surgery. Virginia Heights is her assistant nurse. The seamttesses are still the best. Dollie Evans owns the largest dtessmaket's shop in St. Louis and her employees are: Velma Dunbar, Francis West, Etta Holmes, Lutlean Dunbar, Beatrice Jennings and Erma Byrd. Mallie Jackson models the fashions. On a visit back to Hayti we are told that Mrs. Harris is resigning as tommetcial Ed. teach- ? et at Central and that Flota Wilson will become the new teacher. Chicago is full. Roy Morgan and Eugene Jones are working at the GC8tF Cigatette Com- pany. They Get Cigarettes Free! Nellie Royal is president of The Short Ladies Society Club. Clay Tatum '6wns the Suede Cap Corporation, with Atletha F ultz as his private secretnty and Austin Hollins as his advertising manager. Joyce Ward is an Avon-Reptesentative but she sells nylon hose in her spare time. n We now see two comedians-Wesley Artington and Robert Seals. They are special features on the Ed Sullivan and Steve Allen Shows. Elias Jennings is their manager. Who would have thought we would have Samantha Boykins, Jessie Jo Thomas, Jessie Lean Morgan and Ametta Battinget as switch board operators. They work in hotels in Detroit. Mich. Here are some more teachers. Hazel Goodman and Ralph White. Hazel teaches Biology at Elkhart High School in Elkhart, Indiana. Ralph received his PhD Degree last year. He is on Agriculture instructor at Tuskegee Institute. Elois Crowley is in Hollywood singing and dancing. Petty Kuykendoll will be the producer of her next picture Lola Wants Butmuda Shorts .

Gloria Castleberry Is no longer the quiet and slow Gloria that we once knew. She is the wife of the president of that company and they have many little ones. Wow! Money Wilson is State Representative from Kentucky. This visualization of the future is as authentic as tomorrow. SENIOR CLASS POEM The hour of patting is very sad Yet it is also sweet, For tho we leave old friends behind New ones we shall meet. lArnong our teachers we have found Friends we shall never forget, Friends helping us to overcome All obstacles we met. Among our schoolmates we have found Friendships very dear, -And in our hearts those special ones Shall always be near. It's very sad to say good-bye Yet that we have to do, And since the hour of parting has come We bid you all adeiu. -Elois Crowley CENTRAL SPlRIT We have a team that's hard to lick; Win or lose we always click. To show the team where our hearts remain, We will always do the right thing; Our coach is always there concerned And gives each boy a chance to learn; Our players have it in their hearts, To win, To win and do their parts. The Cheerleaders always do their stunts, Sometimes just one and again in a bunch; Our Scorekeepet always keeps an eager eye, On her records we can rely; When we start home and are on our way, We all must always have out say; No matter what the final score, Our Central Spirit remains evennorc. -J. T. Coffey History of Class of '57 In 1953. 119 eager-eyed freshmen. determined to reach the goal. started on a tedious journey-au full of pep and energy. We elected Barbara Williams as president; William Turner as vlce-presldent; Senora Walls. secretary; Mercer Spercer, assistant secretary and Betty Weir, treasurer. Our sponsors were Mr. Charles Smith and Miss Mary Palmer. Fortunately. one of our members was crowned Miss N. H. A. and Miss Homecoming. She was Arlle Turner. Arlle was very active in sports and she was a member of the girls basket. ball team. During our Freshman year we presented two three act plays- The Laughing Ghost. with Senora Walls protraylng the laughing ghost. and Love Hits Wilbur. with William Cooper act- ing Wilbur. Although a number of class members dropped out during our Sophomore year. we still had 83 to depend upon. Mr. Smith was still one of our sponsors. Miss Palmer was replaced by Miss Deboe. Again our class was fortunate to have two queens-Betty Weir, N. H. A. Queen and Senora Walls. Harvest Queen. Stlll decreasing. 78 Juniors enrolled in 1955 with our same sponsors. Mr. Smith and Miss Deboe. Arletha Fultz was crowned Miss Homecoming and Frizella Treadwell was crowned Miss N. H. A. During that year Senora Walls and Loretta Hayes represented the 4-H Club as delegates to the National Convention in Washington. D.C. We also had representatives from our class attend the Interscholastic Headliner's Workshop given by the Jqumallsm De. partment of Lincoln University. They were Arletha Fultz and Senora Walls. Money Wilson ' attended the N. F'. A. National Convention in Atlanta. Georgia. As in previous years. we. as a Junior class. endeavored to present a Junior-Senlor Prom. With the cooperation of the class and the sponsors the affair was a success. still determined to reach the goal. 65 Seniors enrolled in July. 1957. We anticipated hav- lng the honor of queens coming from our class this year as the years before. This year we had a king and a queen. Hazel Goodman was chosen Harvest Queen supported by Senora Walls, Flora Wilson and Curley Bell. Joe Mack was the King. Flora attended the National 4-H Con- vention in Washington. D.C. The Senior class published a school paper. THE CENTRAL INFORMER. Senora Walls was the editor-ln-chlet and the paper was published monthly. After sttlvlng hard to publish The Centorian. we hope you will enjoy looking through it. As a souvenir. we will leave a lawn bench with The Class of '57 engraved on it. We hope that our class will long- be remembered in the hearts of those to follow us. : Who 93 Who w NAME - KNOWN AS FAMOUS FOR FALLS FOR ARLETHA DENISE FULTZ' A ' Talking mes WILLIAM COOVER . SWIKI!
