The lights and shadows of your future, good or evil? To girlhood, boyhood look, the teacher and the school. Walt Whitman In the words of the poet Walt Whitman, lights and shadows loom in the future for the students. The annual staff believes that the school life of the student also exists in the glow and reflection of lights and shadows. Thus, we have based the year book on the theme of light, using glimmers, spotlights, glows, flames, flickers, and flares to present the record of 1960-61.

DEDICATION The yearbook staff of 1961 wishes to present this HELIOS ANNUAL to our Assistant Principal, who, after 12 years at Central High School and 43 years with the Grand Rapids School System, is retiring. We are grateful for his assistance in school administration, his aid in organizing club activities, his help with student problems, and his counsel on special projects. Our Assistant Principal is often seen visiting different classrooms or talking with a passing student in the hall. His good nature and sense of humor have made him a friend of all Centralites. Yes, we, the students of Central, will long remember your guidance and counsel, your cooperation and interest in our ac- tivities. Therefore, we are proud to present this annual to you, MR. HENRY LUDWICK.
