FRCDNTISPIECE TRIBUTE Mabel Olmstead had abounding zest for life. Her capacity for appre- ciation was almost unique, and her enthusiasm readily communicated. Her enjoyment of the world about her was contagious to a rare degree. I believe that these gifts more than anything else made her the wonder- ful teacher that she was. She was so eagerly interested in people, whether they appeared in real life or in the pages of the history that she taught. She saw them all with humor and understanding. Her scholarship was of the sort that always remains alive. She loved to travel - to know the backgrounds at first handy and her students benefited incalculably because of her wide acquaintance with the countries that they studied in her classes. While I was a student in Europe, it was my good fortune to make a number of excursions with 'tM. O. during her vacations, in England and in Italy. I saw surely more than twice as much as I should have seen alone. Everywhere delightful experiences of the kind usually missed by the average traveller came our way. She seemed to know by intuition just where to go - and when -- and what to see. And after any particularly fortunate event or discovery, she would laughingly boast, We manage well! Years afterwards she would recall countless entertaining incidents of those trips, many of which I had quite forgotten. It was a joy to have them brought to life again by her clear memory. The memory for interesting or amusing detail was one of the faculties that made her students look forward to her classes with a rare eager- ness. Most of us have had some otherwise dull period in history made real and stimulating to us by her vivid anecdotes in connection with it. But for all the pleasures of being in Miss-Olmstead's classes, none of her former students will fail to remember what standards were set for them there. Hers were no snap courses. We realized in her rigid requirements and in her impatience with slipshod work the integrity of her scholarship. Here again, just as her enthusiasm was contagious, so her keenness of thought somehow-stirred our pedestrian wits. It was an exhilarating experience. The feeling that we all had about her mind and character might be summed up in a remark so often repeated that it became almost a proverb among Central High students of my day: If Miss Olmstead were a man - she would be President. I think that we somehow felt that she spoke with the voice of au- thority in a time when it was already becoming the habit of many teachers to offer their students theories and opinions instead of avowals of belief. The great tolerance that was one of her most outstanding characteristics was built upon good humor and perspective, and went hand in 'hand with her great strength of conviction. What a rare and wonderful combination of qualities! Miss Olmstead's ideal was good citizenship. She felt deeply her own responsibility as a member of a democracy: and in her mind the train- ing of students for sharing that responsibility was paramount. A member of the present Central High School faculty writes me that most of the old guard teachers still at Central, as well as many of the newer teachers who had learned to know Mabel Olmstead, regarded her as the finest teacher there. One man said, That corner fthe left back corner of the faculty roomj will never seem right to me again without Miss Olmstead there, sitting straight and attentive and keeping watch over the best interests ot the students in all that was said and done. They don't make many of her pattern any more. Wzffefuf 4fwC0 Five GREETINGS TO CENTRAL HIGH SCHGOL STUDENTS One ot the hardest task of human beings is to think. In fact it is so difficult that unless prodded by someone most people use their minds very ineffectively. Education is for the purpose of training the minds ot youth so that they can and will think, even though they are no longer pushed to do so by teachers and parents. People who learn how to use their mental faculties will have little competition for positions on the ladder ot success in lite outside of the schoolg nor will they be the easy tools ot dictators, but citizens who understand the ways of America. America needs thinking workers and thinking citizens. Central High School has given you the opportunity to cultivate your own talents. It has watched over you, urged you, and encouraged you. When you leave its halls to take your place in the world, will thinking be too hard a task for you? Here's hoping you'll find joy and happiness as a result ot clear and honest thinking. 74 DR. HOMER WILLARD ANDERSON SuperhHendentofInshucHon St. Louis, Missouri Seve Eight TO TI-IE COLORS Hail to the Star Spangled Banner -the Red, the White, the Blue! To us, the stars and stripes symbolize the fundamental truths and principles on which our democracy was founded. They are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Our wise forefathers chose these basic truths as the only sound principles on which to establish a government to serve a free, enlightened people. In the year of 1941, we find a great portion of mankind in a state of chaos, helpless, seemingly hopeless. Peace-loving peoples abroad have been stripped of all personal rights and liberties and reduced to virtual slavery by overwhelming, destructive forces. So far-reaching are the effects of these cataclysmic powers that even the freedom of peace-loving Americans is seriously threatened. What shall America's answer be? God forbid that our torch of freedom be dimmed or snuffed out! Rather, let us re-examine our democratic heritage and evaluate it properlyg let us seek earnestly to discover any weaknesses in our democ- racy - thus strengthening ity and let us stand man to man behind the Defense Program that will insure the preservation of our democracy. God grant that we may face the future with courage and the firm conviction that Freedom's flame shall burn ever brighter for the sons and daughters of Central and for all mankind. With sincere faith in democracy and our future - All Hail - TO THE COLORS!

Upon leaving the halls of our dear old Alma Mater, our hearts beat a little faster and our eyes till with the unsheo tears of regret and of gratitude. We realize that no longer are we the students of Central High School but the alumni of Central High School. We recognize that to us America is looking with eagerness to see what we are Worth. We believe that with the training and knowledge we have received at the hands of our Alma Mater, supplemented with our ability to think and our loyalty to the Colors, we shall prove ourselves to be true citizens ot our nation. lnterwoven in the history of our country, we recognize the greatness and strength of our forefathers, righteous and God- tearing men. May the God ot our forefathers grant that we shall entold within the pages of our future history acts inspired by nobleness of character. May We hold higher the torch of Liberty and Freedom to guide the slaves of dictator tyrants to the light! As we proceed on our way, may We consider dili- gently what is before us.

INTRODUCING THE WINNERS OE THE REDWINGS CONTEST This contest was planned to prove the truth of Mr. Davis's contention about Central boys and girls, as stated below. The ten winners were chosen by vote 9 S of their schoolmates, in an advisory group session, each student casting two b ballots, one for a boy and one for a girl--his choice of the best two in the entire school. WHY CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS ARE CALLED REDWINGS All newspapers are not red, either. Most of them are black and White. But some of -them are read, too. Two and two are four. Fore is a golf term. A term is a long time in prison. Sing Sing is one prison. Sing Sing birds are no angels. Central High School students are not angels, either, although some of them may have dirty faces. Some of them may even make faces at the teachers. If the teachers see this, they give the students black looks. This makes the students' faces red. Red and Black have been Central's colors since 1896. The Redwing Blackbird is really a very beau- tiful bird. The males of this species fly high, wide, and handsome. The females have beauty, charm, and grace. Central boys fly high, wide, and handsome. Central girls have beauty, charm, and grace. Both have zip, zim, zoom, zeal, and zest. That proves from A to Z why Central students are called Redwings. --Vest Davis. Reprint fr om The News.

She used to bring flowers to school every morning, and I had to water them. Say, there's Mr. Iohnson, that handsome blond-headed boys' gym teacher. He really BOB: made the girls goggle-eyed.

MADAME CURIE Honorable Mention in Ballad Contest The great discoverer of radium I'm sure you know quite well, For in a great, great many books The story they do tell. Her name was Madame Curie, Who, when only a small tot, Worked in her father's laboratory. Not a test tube she did drop. . She loved his workshop very much, And in it would always stay. Her father often thought and dreamed A discoverer she'd be someday. Her loving father passed away. lShe was just half grown.l But she kept the workshop going And did it all alone. She began to love his laboratory More dearly every day. She met and married Pierre Curie, But did not move away. Then she discovered radium- A great gift to mankind, A cure for the ,terrible cancer. And she discovered it in time. For many, many lives it's saved: Without it they would die. I'm sure her father knows of it, Although in peace he does lie. -Esther Brooks, '44 THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS First Award in Ballad Contest 'Twas on the train to Gettysburg That Lincoln planned his talk To dedicate the battlefield Where many to death did walk. Then on the platform he did stand, While thousands silent stood, And told how soldiers gave their lives For our great Union's good. The speech he told was from his heart tNo paper did he need.l Each word he spoke he knew- by heart Of boys who did their deed. When he had finished with his speech The people all were still: No hands were raised in great applause For awe their hearts did fill. A saddened man did homeward tread, Thinking his' speech had failed: But on a walk he met a lad, Whose brother had been jailed. My brother is a Southerner, He'll need a lawyer soon Because the call of Death is near, And he may die by noon. Then lying in a hospital bed, A lad, whose eyes were covered, Spoke with praise of Lincoln's speech, While death above him hovered. Lincoln read his speech again, Which the Southern lad had praised. To him the words were beyond compare. At the dying boy Lincoln gazed. I would that I could touch his hand, Ere deathclaims me as his own: For some day his precious words, Will be carved upon a stone. The lad, not knowing who stood there, Kept talking while moments flew. A messenger then interrupted the boy: A message, Mr. Lincoln, for you. With a puzzled look on his young face, MrI Lincolnl the Southern lad said, I am Lincoln, and he took his hand4 The Southern lad was dead. Catherine Robertson, '44. 1 Eighty-five Eighty-six RISING HOPES First Award in Short Story Contest Every girl has had the feeling that there was one thing in her life that she wanted to do most. The thing Helen wanted most was to love and be loved. Maybe the reason for this was that she was one of the homeliest girls that had ever attended Crow High School. She had red hair, freckles, a pug nose that seemed to be smashed all over her plump face, greenish eyes-and she were glasses! In grade school they had teased her, but here they ignored her, It had been all right until she met Bill Worth. Now Bill was tall and handsome, the storybook type, with blond, wavy hair and sparkling blue eyes. Helen fell for Bill in a big way. She had to tell someone about this: so she gOt CICQl1GiI1f9Cl with Betty. Betty sympathized with her, for she felt the same way about Bill. This would make a swell piece of gossip, but Betty was not that kind. She wouldn't do a thing like that. She did like a good joke, though: so she decided to have Some fun- Later in the week an announcement was made of the annual school dance. Bill, of course, asked Betty to go with him, and, after COf1SG1'1tinq, Betty 1CIUfJh9d Gnd Said. DO YOU know who has a crush on you, Bill? I'1l bite. Who? asked Bill. None other than Helen Dennis. Oh, nol Not that, laughed Bill. No' kidding. She told me so herself, said Betty: and then, after a pause, Bill, why don't you give her a thrill and ask her to the dance? Oh, I don't mean take her, Betty added swiftly, seeing the look of surprise on Bill's face. lust ask her and then back out at the last minute. Tell her you're sick or something. Bill at first refused, but, after a little persuasion on Betty's part, he consented to go through with it, even to taking her to the party. ' The next day Helen felt as though she were floating out of school. Bill had asked her SJ the dance. Think of it, Bill Worth had actually asked her, Helen Dennis, to go to the school ance. Why, yes, I'd love to, she had said calmly. But couldn't he see how thrilled she was? That week was a whirl of joy. lust think of it- Bill talking to her in the corridor. Not much, to be sure, but at least talking to her. At last the night of the dance arrived. Her first dance. Dress laid out, shoes. Hang the freckles and hair! Sheer stockings and surprisingly small, high-heeled slippers. The mop of red hair stayed in place for once, and with glasses stowed away in her bureau drawer, the twinkle in her eyes had a chance, and her greenish eyes matched the green chiffon dress perfectly. Dressed up, Helen was not nearly so homely as she appeared at school. And then the bell rangl As Helen came tripping lightly down the stairs, Mrs. Dennis answered the door to admit Bill, who, when he saw Helen, showed genuine surprise at the real beauty that had been hidden all the while under plain clothes, or frightened away by the torments of o ers. That night was the happiest one of Helen's life. She danced with a dozen different boys, all of whom later said that she was far more attractive than she had ever appeared before. When she came home, she felt as though she were walking on air, she was so thrilled! She seemed to float upstairs after Bill said goodbye at the door. When she reached her room, she sighed a deep sigh of sheer joy. This night had meant so much to her. No longer would she be shunned at school. She was one of the gang now. Her first dance had been a success. - - But little did she know how nearly that night had come to keeping her in her usual obscurity. She would never leam of the struggle Bill had, forcing himself- to go through with the date. But she knew already how glad Bill was that he had broken his half of his bargain with Betty so that she, Helen, would not be hurt, no matter how much it hurt him. But never would she know just why he was so glad. -W. Kirby Schlef, '42. SHOULD RECENT IMMIGRANTS TO OUR SHORES BE ENCOURAGED TO ABANDON THEIR LANGUAGE, CUSTOMS, AND NATIVE ARTS IN FAVOR OF THOSE WE ALREADY HAVE? First Award in the Senior Forum Contest Though the mills of God grind slowly, yet they grind exceeding small. Why should humanity and its high ideals be crushed along with the fiends of dictatorship? Why should foreign art cmd quaint customs be taken away from us when they rank high in American culture? ,There is no need to blame the immigrants for the turmoil overtaking the world: they did not ask to be driven from their homes and the things they loved, to seek shelter and peace in a strange country. We ourselves would seek protection in foreign lands if we were driven to sacrifice ourselves and families for fodder in dictators' cannons. Our great Democracy already comprises the cultures, arts, languages, and customs of all the immigrants now striving for our shores. We have progressed by their good examples and their faults. As long as the immigrants abide by our way of life, let them find joy in the jewels of freedom: Life, liberty, and-the pursuit of happiness. -Ruth Hofmann, '4l. SHOULD THERE BE MORE OR FEWER GANGSTER FILMS? Third Award in Senior Forum Contest In my opinion there should be fewer gangster films produced on the screen. Truthfully, I myself enjoy a film of this type, once in a while, as I watch it merely for the entertain- ment produced. However, a small child, who does not look at the picture from this stand- point, is most likely to get the wrong impression. It is true the moral of all the stories is Crime Does Not Pay. Yet on the screen the gangsters are always heroes. In most of these pictures children are bribed by the gangsters for a small sum of money to commit some dishonorable deed. This money looks gigantic to the children in the audience, and they begin to think that perhaps they could very easily acquire the same amount. Each film has some new trick or technique by which the gangsters outwit the police. Instead of thinking how to catch the criminal by a new method, the children are pondering the heroic acts of the criminal. Later in the picture they notice how the gangster has omitted the one important incident or clue, and was caught by the police. Instead of admir- ing the work of the police, the children think of something which might possibly have made the crime perfect. This incites them to commit the perfect crime, which we have heard of so much lately. Does this then teach them to prevent crime? I should say it does notl This is more likely to have greater effect on the poorer children, who do not receive all the things they desire. Although the gangsters always get caught or killed in the end, they have ample money to spend on clothes and luxuries before the unhappy ending. At this point the children do not see the horrible and shameful ending, which is inevitable, but see only the easy side of the criminal's life. They also see only the simple methods by which material things are obtained. Thus we see these everyday occurrences are often mis- interpreted. Once children get started on the road to crime, they become so hard and are so confident of themselves that they never think of getting caught. One example is the game of cops and robbers. All small children enjoy playing this game. If you watch them closelv, you will see that none of them wants to be the policeman or the detective, but would much rather be the robber. This is the result of teaching children to idolize a robber and to fear a policeman. And such is the danger, in part, of seeing too many gangster films. In conclusion I would like to say that now and then a film of this type is all right, for some folks enjoy them, but with so many other good subjects to write about. I believe that there should be fewer gangster films, since the result is, that instead of producing the impres- sion that Crime Does Not Pay, they encourage the children and gives them more ideas as how to commit the perfect crime. -Olive Warning, '42.

F if fi xr' t Ninety te M., . . THE EVOLUTION OE THE RED AND BLACK The first of Central's publications was the Monthly Blossom, published in 1877. This was followed by the Nut, which was first issued in 1885 and discontinued in 1886. It was on sale to anyone in St. Louis who wished to purchase it. The news of the school was sent to a publishing office where it was organized and made into a booklet of about twelve pages. It was sent out monthly, selling for ten cents a copy. There is no record of a school paper from 1886 to 1891. However, in 1891, The Reflector, also a monthly issue, appeared. The High School News began its publication in 1896, as a monthly, which sold for fifty cents per term. ln lune, of 1896, when the second issue of the High School News was published, an article appeared which stated that Central High School would adopt for its new colors Crimson and Black. lt was also at this time that a cover was adopted for the News, making it resemble a great deal our present RED AND BLACK. A very important question arose at this' time. This question was whether or not young ladies should appear on the staff for the News. It was put before the students, and the following term two young ladies' names appeared on the board of editors. The price of seventy-five cents a term for the News seems rather high to us, but it must be remembered that the News at this time was almost as large as our present RED AND BLACK. Besides this it was printed monthly. There were also extra issues at graduation in Ianuary and Iune, but there were no complimentary issues. In 1904 the first Yearbook was published. It was followed in 1905 by a book called the Herald, and it in turn was followed by the Echo in 1910. From 1910 to 1917, the graduation editions of the High School News served as yearbooks. A two-sheet paper called the News was printed in 1916. It contained the every- day happenings of the school, but it was thought that such a paper as this would be short lived. However, the idea of a weekly paper proved quite popular, so popular, in fact, that it has continued until the present day. In 1917 the High School News was changed from a monthly issue to a semi-annual. This was the result of the war which had caused prices of printing materials to rise. The following year the name, RED AND BLACK, was supplied in place of the H igh School News. This change was brought on by the birth of new high schools, which caused our paper no longer to be called The High School News. Since the beginning of the 1920's the RED AND BLACK has retained its name and character. ln 1928 the Diamond lubilee Edition received honorable mention in the nation-wide contest of yearbooks. 1937 and 1938 saw the RED AND BLACK win high awards also. All should strive to keep interest in Central's yearbook going by contrib- uting to it all eight terms. - --Iune Meister, '4l. N if 3 A ,l Q3-l 'if' .V A 1 4 .415 5' 9 .

I will demonstrate my old and new methods with two experiments. Experiment No. I. Scene: The kitchen. Time: After supper. Mom, can I go to the show? Ask your father. Into the living room I go. Dad, can I go to the show? Whatever your mother says. Result: Nil. Experiment No. 2. Scene and time the same. Mom, can I go to the show if dad says I can? I guess so. Again I go into the living room. Dad, can I go to the show if Mom says I can? I don't care. Result: Complete success. That is my way of winning an argument. AN ENGLISH TEST Second Award in Ballad Contest This English test I did not like: A ballad was all that counted. 'Twas about anything I wanted to write, But still my anxiety mounted. I started with George Washington, Then I went to Poe, But I couldn't think of anything That in the rhythm would go. Lincoln was as fine a man. A finer man couldn't be, But when I start to write of him, He doesn't appeal to me. So I wrote of a true story That happened to me this day: I was trying to write a ballad And also thinking of play. -Iack Feldhaus, '44, -Charles Harris, '44. Ninety-one FEB. XS, X939 Nin GW-tw O city BAKE SHOP ROMANCE First Award in Magazine Cover Story Contest The sun shone down brightly on the city streets, and perhaps even more so on Samuel, the aged street cleaner, a disappearing symbol of a busy metropolis. Many of the city's old-timers wondered how much longer they would see him push his refuse wagon from Main to Twenty-third, and Samuel himself often wondered at the stability of his occupa- tion: but such gloomy thoughts were miles from his shiny dome this fourteenth day of February. Early, as it may seem, Spring had struck old Samuel full in his wrinkled face, and it shone from behind his cart load of rubbish like a full moon. So, from Main Street onward, he hurriedly pushed the white cart, which included a queer assortment of brooms and brushes, so essential to every street cleaner. How lucky it was for him that no city inspector followed in his wake: for his strokes were few and far between, and his stops were farther. More thoughts than those of his job rested upon his clear old brain and even a few stanzas of music broke from his lips-music that was popular perhaps twenty years ago. Clutching at something in his inside coat pocket, he muttered to himself, I hope she's in a good mood today, I do. What a good womornl What a good cook she is! Now everybody in the city knew that the only she in Samuel's life was Elizabeth, a woman much larger than Samuel, and younger. She ran a bake shop on the corner of Fifteenth and Pine, and, incidentally, she had served Sam's dinner for him personally for ten years without exception. Good morning, Sam, how's business? This was Elizabeth's usual greeting, but this morning she broke her usual routine by adding a bright smile. Fine and dandy, answered Sam. This was the same answer to the above question that Sam had used without exception for ten years. What's this? A break in routine? Sam reached into his pocket and produced the object of his clutching, a large, slightly crinkled valentine. Hmmm,-a h hh, err E liz - a - beth began Sam, but Elizabeth had her back tumed and was pouring coffee for Sam, an added attraction for a bake shop: but she must have heard, for she spoke. Did you want something, Samuel? she asked. Why,--why, yes-two lumps of sugar, if-if you please, stuttered Sam. Well, don't get excited. It's not good for the heart, Elizabeth commented, automatically dropping two lumps of sugar into his coffee. The hostess had no sooner turned her back than Sam began to finger the laced valen- tine, or, to be more definite, the proposal, for that touching token was the stimulus to which Samuel had been reacting, and love with a touch of Spring fever can even embolden the soul of such a timid man as Samuel. , Again and again Samuel started to present his fifty-cent love token, but again and again his lips formed different words than his heart dictated, such as: Another cup of coffee, please. or two lumps of sugar. Too much coffee isn't good for the heart, came the repeated answer. Elizabeth was noted for her politeness, whether from habit or from the business stand- point: but she was never noted for timidity. Samuel, she said at last, Have you something on your mind? What, err, 'nother cup of coff, what4-oh no! Nothing, nothing, at a1l, he answered, brokenly. But, alas, his secret was out. The gift had fallen from his pocket to the counter. Quickly Samuel picked up the obiect inscribed, My Heart and Your Heart, and with a courage little known to himself, he presented it to Elizabeth. How delighted Elizabeth seemedl She fussed with her hair, then overcame her shyness and became quite forward: for she knew it had t n Sam ten years to present his gift and it would take him ninety to propose: so quite nningly she stated: I think we should frame it, shouldn't we, Sam, for a remembrance? , And so it was framed. But before I end this short short story, may I add that He who has no courage must wait for lady fate to spin her wheel of fortune. -Bert Newell, '43.

Second Award in the Senior Forum Contest The American way of life is to grant to all peoples the right of assembly, of free speech, and of free press: and so, at first glance, I thought that if we are to keep our free government, we must allow such groups these gifts of freedom. But when I look further into the question, I realize that almost all of the groups who advocate some form of govem- ment other than our own would not extend these rights to all classes cmd races and that they are against the very principles which at the present time allow them to survive in the United States. The work of these groups constitutes a very real threat to American democ- racy, and you can see how much damage such subversive groups would do by the damage they have done in European countries. For these reasons Ihfeel that, at least for the present time, such groups should be prohibited the right of assembly and broadcast. -Marjorie de long, '41, 4 S P I WANT AMERICA Second Award in Poetry Contest I want a land that holds no grudge, A land that is a wiser judge, A land where shouts of freedom ring, A land that welcomes peace in spring. I want a land that's truly just, Built on a rock of truth and trust, A country that has power to stand When war'has conquered alien land. I want a land whose heart is mine, Whose faultsare few, whose arts are fine, Whose emblems stand because I choose, Whose head is high though win or lose. E This land is mine, mine every stone, In which I rule without a throne, A land for one, a land for all, Whose fault is mine if it should fall. -Marvel Daffron, '42, AEWVHWES 3 1 l 'I e Q' 1 J 1 3 - A 5' :H 1 , -of 4 a e rs 1 7 2 2 ...- - .... . f gf , fw , 3 A, , A 4 . . .. , ,W , . - , 'Wim W A r ' ,.---' A..... ..,.,......,.., I A A . 1 M Y' HQD4 ,... .. ,,4Q , 1 , mfr, ,.'-- . fi ig'-sh xx.

THE LAMPS AND OWLS The Lamps and Owls pins, used as Scholarship awards, were first given in 1927. The number receiving these awards has greatly increased since that time. The first BE gold medal was awarded in 1927 to Lulu Lorandos. Anyone who is listed above the second term may receive an award if he has an average of 90 or above in his subjects. One grade of 85 is permitted. For the first two terms, one-owl pins and two-owl pins are given. For the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth terms lof all E studentsl gold and silver lamps, with roman numeral attached, are awarded. In the beginning the graduating classes gave the money for the pins, but since the number receiving pins has increased, each one must pay for his own pin. Miss Langenberg is in charge of the scholarship awards. SHOULD PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO CHILDREN OR WHO SEND THEIR CHILDREN TO PRIVATE SCHOOLS BE COMPELLED TO PAY SCHOOL TAXES? Honorable Mention in the Senior Forum Contest Everyone who lives in the United States should pay taxes, regardless of whether he is directly benefited or not. Directly or indirectly, everyone is benefited by the school taxes. The people who have children profit directly from this tax by having their children educated. The rest benefit by having the future citizens educated to a degree that they will be capable of running the government intelligently and efficiently. b Moreover, it would be unconstitutional to be allowed to be exempt from the school'tax. America is a land of free people granted equal rights and privileges by the Constitution of the United States. Thus each man is taxed at an equal rate. If one man did not have to pay a certain tax, he would be granted a privilege another did not have, thus making the exemption unconstitutional. -Dan Cuneo, '4 1 .

TI-IE STUDENT COUNCIL The present Student Council was organized in 1939 to provide for more vital experiences and actual training in democratic practices. The Student Council is the agent by which the students express their opinions on school affairs and problems, and which co-operates with the administrators and teachers of Central to improve our school community. The Council, a democratic body, is composed of a representative from each of the advisory groups, A Cabinet of ten members, representing pupils of each semester, serves as the planning and executive body. Any pupil or teacher may submit problems for con- sideration by the Cabinet and the Council. A visit to a meeting of the Council will demonstrate the real interest and enthusiasm of students in school matters. It is not always possible to deal with the items presented by the representatives, nor does the Council always satisfy the desires of the students, but an honest attempt is made to improve the conditions within the school. Each year the Council launches and sponsors interesting projects. During the past year it directed the Clean-Up Campaign, which resulted in the winning of first place among the public high schools of St. Louis. Candy has been placed on sale in our lunchrooms, as well as in the lunchrooms of our sister high schools, because our Council expressed the popular demand for sweets. The Council was given full charge of the sale of tickets for November Novelty Night, which netted the largest advance sale of tickets since the Carnival was insti- tuted. The Council co-operated with the American Problems class in waging a realistic and exciting presidential campaign in November. The Christmas program and distribution of Christmas baskets were also sponsored by the Council. These are but the more dramatic examples of the democratic practices of the Council: it is impossible to make a complete list of our activities. ft is important to note that the pupils have voted to expand their interest in student participation in school and community problems by joining a metropolitan student council, an organization which will serve as a clearing house for problems that are of mutual interest to the American youth of Greater St. Louis.

The name stands for courtesy, kindness, and helpfulness, or co-operation: in other words, Co-operative Central High. Each term the girls belonging to the club are assigned some duty which will help main- tain order in the school. The girls are stationed at the entrance to each locker room to take the names ot those entering during the period. They stand at the head of the stairway on each floor to see that the lines are kept going in the proper direction. They act as ushers during auditorium sessions, and they serve in the doctor's ottice on Tuesdays and Fridays.

THE COMMITTEE CE TWENTY The Committee of Twenty, organized twelve years ago by Mr. Friedli, is, at the present time, under the sponsorship of Mr. Phillips. The Committee of Twenty is an honor society, whose members are chosen on a basis of scholastic ability and personal characteristics. The club was organized for the purpose of being of service to the school in any way possible. The main duties of the club are watching the locker rooms, ushering in the auditorium, helping in the bookroom and doctor's office, tutoring, and performing other minor duties. ln the past three years, as a result of numerous activities, the club has had to enlarge its membership by five more members, who are called associate members. They are not official members but help the club in its duties. As vacancies occur in the official group, they are filled by boys from the associate membership, who have shown their personal characteristics and scholarship ability to be above average.

We looked in several stores and saw many beautiful dresses-most 'ot them my size. My sister didn't seem to like any that I liked: so we went on to other stores. In one store a sale on women's new spring dresses was in progress. She saw some she liked and bought one for herself. After she had purchased the dress, we went to another part of the store where there wc: a sale on some new spring hats. A very pretty one caught her fancy: in fact, she thought it was the prettiest hat she had ever seen: so she bought the hat. As we were leaving the store, by accident we stumbled into the shoe department. On the counter she saw a pair of white shoes she liked very much. She asked the clerk if. he One Hundred and Six V Q Q First Rum: tseuliirl, lift to righlb: lanice de long, Ellis Henry, Virgil Moss, Robert Busche, lohn Erwin, Gerald Sobdcinski, Ralph Leistritz, Karl Kluq, Ray Winkler, Millard Myers, Gilbert Schmid, Robert Schmidt, Arthur Click, David Underwood, Alvin Wittner, Estelle Gretz- schel.

The object of the club is to obtain and -trade stamps and to learn more about philately. The club meets on odd Wednesdays in room 206. Last year Charles Herbst, Walter Groves, and Estelle Gretzschel took blue ribbons at the stamp exhibition. Ray Winkler and Calvin Esselbruegge received a blue ribbon on a combined exhibition, while Robert Schmidt and Robert Nielson received a red ribbon William McClure received a yellow ribbon at the Iunior Stamp Exhibition held by the Mound City Stamp Club last May.

Then she asked the price, and, finding that it seemed within reason, she bought a pair of them. Finally we left that store, and, as We were passing another, my sister happened to notice they had a sale on hosiery. She decided that she must have some new hose for her new shoes: so she bought herself three pairs. By that time we were hungry: so we went to a restaurant and bought a dinner, some pie, and a beverage. After we had finished, we went home. When we reached home, we were both very tired, I, especially, from carrying most of the packages. When we were rested, my sister realized for the first time that she had bought herself a new spring outfit and that she had bought me nothing but a thirty-five cent dinner, ci piece of pie, and a beverage.

The Athenaeum dates back to the year i923 when Miss Mott, the sponsor of the Girls' Debating Team, with a group of girls, formed an organization purely for the purpose of holding debates. This organization was known as the Debating Club until l924 when it was named the Athenaeum. Since 1924 the Athenaeum has come a long way under the sponsorship of various teachers, among whom have been Miss Mabel Olmstead and Miss Mary L. Beck. Miss Thomure, the club's present sponsor, has held that position since l928. When not debating, the girls of the Athenaeum have a chance to express their more artistic abilities by such activities as staging plays and reading poems. Should you think that the Athenaeum is a club only for the bright lights of Central, let me inform you of some of their more humorous activities. At the beginning of each term, prospective members are given a thorough going over by an initiation committee, much to the delight of the older members. Then to top off every term, a Wiener roast is held in O'Fallon Park, at which the girls really have a time. The membership for this term has been reasonably large, and the programs given thus far show promise of more enjoyable Athenaeum meetings to come. OFFICERS FOR 1940-1941 President .

TI-IE BOYS LITERARY SOCIETY The Boys' Literary Society, the oldest organization in Central High School, was organized in 1868. The society is sponsored by Mr. Davis, who was also a member while attending Central High. One of the chief objectives of the society is to develop debaters. Every boy on the debating team is usually a member of the society. This year the society held a hobby show on Novelty Night at which model airplanes, match-box covers, postcards, and other treasures were exhibited. George I-Iartie and Arvin Doelling were the Winners. During the year the society has held poetry contests, mock trials, debates, liars' contests, and a Romeo and Iuliet play. The society holds its meetings on Thursdays after school. OFFICERS FOR 1940-1941 President ,, , , A . Sidney Iames, Kenneth Knoernschild Vice President L . , lack Vale, Sidney lames Secretary . I L .

The purpose ot this c1ub is to create an interest in art among the pupi1s ot the school. lt gives many the opportunity to express themselves, while it gives others a chance to participate in some artistic endeavor that they enjoy. The purpose of the club embraces a variety of activities, such as modeling in various mediums, designing masks, and making novelties. Besides this, occasional programs are presented by individual members ot the club illustrated by stereopticon slides. The members also make decorative notebook covers that correlate with their regular school work. At all times the club aims to interest the very talented members and also those with only an occasional interest. During the term the club members have made several trips to the City Art Museum where they have heard special, prepared lectures on various subjects, among them, early American, English, and French interiors. Besides this, they have heard lectures on current exhibits such as Diego Rivera. The club now has an enrollment of thirtyfone members. OFFICERS FOR 1940-1941 President , .

Lying to the right of my aunt's east gable was, in my opinion, the most luscious orchard I had ever seen. I looked about to make sure no one was around, and I went down to the toolhouse where I finally found unc1e's ladder. lt was so large, or possibly I was so small, 1 could hardly carry it. I managed, however, to drag it to a large peach tree whose branches were laden with ripe, golden fruit, glistening in the sunlight.

TI-IE DEBATING TEAM The Central High Debating Team, under the leadership of Mr. Davis, placed fourth in the State League Debate, with four victories and four defeats. The Central Affirmative defeated the Xavier, the Soldan, and the Roosevelt Negatives, while the Central Negative defeated the Southwest Affirmative. The Central Negative was defeated by Blewett, Southside, and McBride, while the Central Affirmative was defeated by St. Louis University. Central's debaters are as follows: Affirmative, Robert Asbille, Sidney fames, Kenneth Knoernschild, and Virginia Mills: and on the Negative, Marjorie de long, Rita Hanzely, Nadine Manche, Ralph Mauller, and Dorothy Pillman. The subject for debate this year was as follows: Resolved, that the power of the federal government should be increased. Roosevelt and St. Louis University teams were tied for the championship, Roosevelt winning the final playoff debate. Spying a very large, mellow peach, I ascended the ladder, but, to my horror, as I got one foot on a large branch, I slipped, and down toppled the ladder, leaving me stranded in the tree. I was sitting there not knowing what to do, for if I called I knew I was sure to get a good shellacking. I saw my aunt at the door and heard her calling my name. I think I was so frightened I was speechless. Skip, my dog, finally spied me in the tree and began barking and running in circles around the trunk. My aunt came to see what the commotion was, noticed the ladder lying on the ground, and also saw me sitting up in the tree. I think the only thing that saved me from getting the licking of my life was the fact that my aunt's sister and brotherein-law had just arrived for supper. -Virginia Chaney, '44, One llundred and Thirteen TI-IE BIOLOGY CLUB The Biology Club, originally the Botany Cl-ub, was organized in l925. Miss Watkins has been the sponsor of the club except for two years when Doctor I-lolferty was sponsor. The club goes on field trips every two weeks during the spring and fall. The members meet early on Saturday morning at Central and go together. They bring their own lunches or something that can easily be cooked in the open. The club has gone to Meramec Ouarry, Falling Springs, Cliff Cave, Monk's Mound, Baken Cave, and Creve Coeur Lake. OFFICERS FOB 1940-1941 President . L... . ., . .

I'd say he was about five or six, just old enough to wonder about this big strange world of ours. This little boy, whom I shall call Iohnny, is holding a few flowers in his hand and looking very deeply puzzled at them. As I watch him, he seems to come to life and he speaks. Listen! and you'll hear him speak to his dog. Well, Brownie, we've been walking since morning and have only found a few different kinds of flowers. You know it's most dinner time and I just gotta have somethin' to eat. With the mention of food Brownie barked joyously. But I mustn't quit until I get some more flowers. It's just like big sister says, if you're goin' to study 'biol-biol-biolergyfyou gotta be intursted in it enough to go without dinner.' This biol-biolergy business sure keeps a feller busy. Ever since sister told me about it, I been out lookin' for flowers and animals. You know, Brownie, I jist don't see why flowers are balled 'biolergy.' They're just plain roses or Dutchman's Breeches to me. Well, let's get started, Brownie. While I'm lookin' for flowers, I'm going to look for animals and butterflies, too. We now watch them as they scamper off into the woods. As we go along with them, we see johnny picking one or two flowers. Say! something is wrong. He has started run- ning away, and I think I know just what has happened. He's being chased by a bee, a great big bumble bee. I think the bee should be choking on Iohnny's heel dust by now, but it isn't, for I hear Iohnny yelling. What a shame! I see he has a large red bump on the back of his neck, and it seems to grow larger with every breath he takes. Of course, Iohnny isn't a cry baby, but he wishes he were right now But even if he was stung by a bee, he isn't going to be discouraged by that. I-Ie doesn't scamoer this time, but walks slowly and steadily. I think he sees a butterfly.

' The purpose of the club is to visit industrial plants and see chemistry at work. The group has taken some interesting trips to Purina Mills and Gradwohl Laboratory. One of the most interesting experiments of the year was the demonstration of how a rat reacts to carbon monoxide. The rat was returned alive to Miss Boss. Besides this, the club performed some experiments in chemistry as their part in the carnival on November Novelty Night. The most lively meeting of the year is the weiner roast, held every term at Forest Park. Needless to say, everyone has a good time. OFFICERS FOR 1940-1941 Marcia lacolvs. President , . . . .

Over hill and dale they go, just like lightning. johnny is running with his head and hands up in the air, so as to keep track of the butterfly and catch it if possible. 1 do think he had better watch where he is going. Too late! He has already run right into some water. Knee deep, too! What a sight he is. Wet, dirty, tired, and hungry --just as hungry as a bear. But 1 see he isn't going to starve, for he's sitting out in the sunshine eating berries while he dries off. He's ready to continue now, and just as he gets up, he spies a rabbit, and off he goes. We're off on another wild-goose chase, or should we say Wild-rabbit chase? Anyway, he's certainly running fast. l think he's lost sight of the rabbit. No, he's gone again. The rabbit is just too fast for johnny, for he's practically out of sight, and now johnny has to climb through a fence if he 'Wants to catch up with the cotton tail. He didn't wait to find out what kind of fence he was going through until it was too late. Heaven help him! lt's a barbed- Wire -fence, and is he stuck! Words can't express just how stuck he is! Let's listen in on his conversation with Brownie. Oh, Brownie, do you think this 'biol-biol-biol '-ff oh, well, do you think it's worth all the trouble l've had today?' t With that We hear Brownie's tired bark, which gives johnny his answer. All right, said johnny, we'll go home and forget all about that bi-business, and leave it all to big sister. As they go homeward, we see a very tired and exhausted but experienced little boy and his faithful dog. -Sylvia Coleman, '43. One llundred ind Fifteen !'l1irinv!s.'

THE CAMERA CLUB The Central High School Camera Club, under the sponsorship of Mr. Prelutsky, was organized in 1937 with a threefold purpose: To help Central in all Ways photographic, to develop the photographic skill of the members, and to afford enjoyment in a worth-while activity. The members have had the honor of helping with the RED AND BLACK pictures, taking pictures for the News, photographing athletic games, auditorium sessions, and other school activities. The beginners are helped by the more experienced members. During the year the members of the club have held photography contests, outings, and parties. They are now competing with Beaumont and Soldan in an interscholastic photo- graphic contest. i OFFICERS FOR 1940-1941 President ,,,oo,,o , oo,iou..,iio.iuioi,,,ii,,, ,, iiioo,,,o,.. , oou.,i,iooi,u io,u,o , ,, ,William Linders Secretary and Treasurer tfirst terml ,,,,,, Frances Mital Vice President , ,,,.,,,,, ..,,,,,, ,,,.,, , , ,, . ,,,,,,. ,,,.,., , Pete Mercurio Secretary ,,,,,,,,,, , ,,,,, , ,,,,,,, ,,,,,.,, F rances Mital Treasurer ,, ,,,,, , ,,,,,, Eileen Podolski WHAT'S THE YOUNGER GENERATION COMING TO, ANYWAY? Honorable Jllcmtion in Senior F07 llI7L f'0m'Psf This question has probably been asked by the old folks for centuries, and the answer seems rather obvious. Young people will naturally become older, get married, raise families, and ask the same old question, about their children: What is the younger generation coming to? ' Why worry about them? They will learn to take care of themselves, just as the others that have gone before them did. Everyone must have his share of happiness and grief: it is part of life. As for the young folks' being too fast, they're not, really. They just have to try to keep up with the world. Remember, in Mother's day, when the automobile was a new invention? What did her parents say? The world was becoming too fast, of course. There is truly no need for the older people to worry about what the younger genera- tion is coming to, for they will eventually settle down and repeat the story, The world is 'too fast': what is the younger generation coming to, anyway? -Iean Kuntz, '41.

The club later came under the sponsorship of Mr. Kittlaus until February, 1941, when it was taken over by Mr. Iansen. Mr. Iansen's call for members brought out sixty boys, forty of whom are beginners and the other twenty active members. The activities of the Gym Club include tumbling, pole climbing, working on the parallel bars, the rings, the side horses, and the buck. The club has held exhibitions during the halves in basketball games, at parentfteachers' meetings, and at auditorium sessions. The Gym Club participated in the Interscholastic gym meet at Roosevelt High in April. The Gym team consists of Tom Karanickolas, Elmer Stokes, lames Walsh, Wilbur Altman, Thomas Specker, Lawrence Iohnson, Macon Baker, Robert Marx, Rudolph Stubits, and Sterl- ing Price. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SPORT TO WATCH: TO PARTICIPATE IN? Honorfzblf Jfmvffon. in fhv Senior Forum Contest Everyone has his favorite sport to watch, and mine is football. In a football game you see twenty-two men in actionemore than in any other sport. You see boys putting their strength and ability against others, striving to push the other team back. You see spills, thrills, kicking, passing, running, and best of all, if the team is good, you see team work, without which no team will be a Winner. It gives me a great thrill to see a boy run forty or fifty yards, side-stepping, stiff-arming, struggling to reach the pay stripe, and to see him finally reach his goal. Yes, to me an afternoon or an evening at a football game is one of my greatest enjoyments. When it comes to participating in a sport, however, I think I'll pick track over all the others. tContinued on page l2'I.l One Hunrlrocl and Twentyesix Ulmer Lmderx: Rose Marie Corso, Ruth Goetz, Frank McTigue Virginia Caldwell First Row.

Tl-IE PEP CLUB Miss Breckinridge was the first teacher to sponsor the Pep Club, which, at the present time, is under the leadership of Mr. lones. When the club was first begun, all of the members except four were girls. The Pep Club was organized for the purpose of creating more school spirit, and it has rendered great service to the school such as leading yells at the basketball and football games and at other sessions.

One of the main reasons I like track is that it is an individual sport. You don't have to be on a winning team to show your abilities. ln distance running you have a chance to plan your race and to run by a schedule. Then if you win, you get a great thrill thinking h t at you not only outran the other boys but that you out smarted them. ln m ' ' - y opinion track is a fine sport, and I would recommend it to any boy who wants to build up his body, have some real fun, and to make himself known to his classmates. -Robert Larkin, '42.

THE ROLLER SKATING CLUB The Roller Skating Club was formed in the tall ot 1931. The membership of the club is steadily increasing term after term, and this is now one of the largest and most popular clubs at Central. Roller Skating is a popular pastime that appeals both to boys and girls. It is a whole- some recreation and one that students will enjoy in later life: hence its general appeal. The club meets after school every Tuesday and skates at the Crystal Roller Rink. Miss McDermott is the sponsor. I OFFICERS President . ......... .,,,.,.,.......... ............ .

GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSGCIATION The GAA. is one of the largest and most popular clubs for girls at every high school in the city. ' The purpose of this association is to interest girls in sports and to provide recreation. lt also tends to teach good sportsmanship, honor, dependability, and character. This athletic association provides the basis of all intramural activities among the afterfschool sports. These activities are divided into three seasonal groups which are fall, winter, and spring. Fall-e Ping-pong, shuffleboard, hockey, soccer. Winter---Dancing, volleyball, goal-hi, paddle tennis. Spring el-lorseshoes, tennis, deck tennis, badminton. The high light of the school year is the awarding of the athletic honors. Every girl who belongs to the GAA. works hard to receive at least one of the many different types of awards. Chevrons are given for 600 points, school letters for l2O0 points, and GAA. honor pins for 1800. lf a senior girl has an average of eighty per cent or more for one year, and has a good record in health, posture, and ability in sports, she may apply for a state letter, the Missouri M. Last term, the versatile dancers of the G.A.A. participated in the School Carnival for the purpose of raising money for new band uniforms. The dancers gave performances in ballet, tap, and musical comedy. The audiences were amazed at the beautiful costumes and dancing ability of the girls. Miss Amend, the sponsor of this presentation, must have raised a magic wand to create this vision of fairyland loveliness. A representative from each gym class meets every Monday after school to discuss and plan the activities of the GAA. and this group, in tum, elects its officers. OFFICERS FOR i940-i941 President . .

A party is given each year for the G.A.A. members where hot dogs, sodas, candy, and cookies are served to everyone present. All the girls admit they have wonderful times at these parties. The G.A.A. this year, much to the amazement ot other schools, had enough money to secure hockey shin guards. With these protectors the girls played more freely, thus improv- ing their skill in the game. When one hears the phrases, ground sticks, ground sticks, he may be sure to see the Central girls out in the cold weather engaged in an enthusiastic and interesting game of hockey. The lower terms worked just as hard in their game ot soccer as did the seniors in their game ot hockey. Teams were chosen and a real competitive tournament started. These games were refereed under the able leadership of Miss Schonhorst. Q S S 9 V I Q One Hundred and Thirty one THREES AND FOURS First 1fow.

Honorable Blentvfon in Senior Forum, fmztesf No doubt any person who first glances at this question will come to some sort of conclu- sion. l myself think that poverty is an aid to eventual success. When a person has gone through many years of stricken poverty in youth, as he grows older, he will remember this unfortunate experience and will do everything in his power to keep from it in the future. As he has had hard knocks in his childhood, it will be nothing new to him when he receives them in later life. This misfortune will not be such a great shock to him. For instance, there is the wealthy boy, who is no doubt spoiled in everyway imaginable and patted on the back by his so-called friends. He has no ambition whatsoever, though he may have the ability to do hard work. Everything he wants he gets, and his parents practically live his life for him and take all the blame for him. As he grows up, he decides to carry on his father's business. In case, as sometimes happens, he completely loses all his wealth, his home, his friends, and his possessions, he might be in such a terrible predica- ment as to commit suicide. This might be exaggerating it a bit, but he would be so wrecked that he wouldnt know how to go about finding another job: whereas, the man who has experi- enced this trouble would know how to adjust himself. -Elaine Pond, '-42.

Gruchalla, Driller, Golembieski, Scharitz, Hennefeld, and Brown were the lettermen to report back to Coach lansen. Central bowed to Southwest in its initial encounter to the score of l46 to 96. ln this bout, the outstandina individual for the day was Campbell Brown, who collected first place in the 44Ofyard dash, and the 880, as well. Central won an easy victory over McBride, to the tune of l2O to 78. Larkin, Swope, Hennefeld all collected easy firsts in this encounter. Blewett proved to be another easy mark for Central as she crumpled to the tune of l56 to 86. Practically everyone on Central's Squad placed first or second in his particular event. Cleveland barely nosed out Central by l36V2 to l2lV2 points because of more mane power. However, Central took over 20 first places on that particular day. The result of the Triangular Meet was a different story, when Central met the Lonahorns and the Bouqh Riders, who collected l49V2 and l26 points respectively, to Central's 49 points. The outstandinq event of the day was the mile run, in which the record was nearly broken. ln the St. Louis District Meet, Campbell Brown qualified in the 440-yard and 88fleyard dashes but failed to run in the finals. This proved to be a severe blow to the entire team. Besides this, the weather conditions were unfavorable, and a aood many reaular track men failed to qualifyp consequently, Central mustered about l9 points in the District to finish seventh out of 17 hiah schools. Bob Larkin crossed the finish line in the 880-yard dash, in first place. Hennefeld also aol first place in the shot put. Pfeiffer finished sesond in the mile run, while Crow and Sweeney and the lunior relay runners also placed. The results of the District Meet V -- April 26: Ont Hunflred and Thirty-eiqht THE INTERSCHOLASTIC MEET Because of a fast track and extremely good running condition, Wilbur Bagby, Centra1's ace 440-yard man and Track captain, smashed the 440-yard record to the tune of 49:9. This time was the second best running time in the entire U. S. A. for boys of high-school age in the year of 1940. Bagby qualified in three events in the Interscholastic but failed to run in the third because of sickness. He also placed third in the 220-yard dash to make a total of 8 points for the day. Believe me, that's a real day's work. Clarence Hennefeld tour undefeated shot-put champl soared on to greater heights as he hurled the 8-pound shot 59 feet 9 inches, missing the national high-school record by a mere two feet. However, unofficially, he tied this record. District Champ Bob Larkin had some tough luck in the Interscholastics. He was fouled out in the last ten yards but still managed to finish second. Larkin could easily have won this race had he not been fouled. Seven records were broken in the Interscholastic meet, and Central broke two. Sweeney won the Iunior 220-yard dash. The leading point scorers in the District and Interscholastic meets were Hennefeld 10, Larkin 9, Bagby 8, Pfeiffer 8, Sweeney 9, and Tunmer 7. Central finished in fourth place, instead of higher, in the Interscholastic Meet, only because the relay was unable to participate. -Lawrence Pfeiffer, '41, The Shot Put, won by Hennefeld Iunior Points 5 Wulfemeyer-Running B1-ogdlump ,V,,,,, ,,,., 3 The '880-yard Run, won by Larkin lunior Points 5 Driller-880-yard Dash .,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.,.,,..,, ,,,, 1 The Mile Run, second, won by Pfeiffer Senior Points 4 McNeary-Pole Vault ,,,,,,,,,,,,,A,,,,,,,, ,,,,, 1 The 440-yard Dash, fifth, won by Crow Iunior Points l Grucha11a+I-Iigh Hurdles ,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,., 3 The 220-yard Dash, won by Sweeney Junior Points 2 - The Iuntor Relay 1880-yardl Total 27 Carpenter, Mercurio, Crow, Sweeney .........,.......... 1 X TOTAL 18 IUNIORS Entrants Events Points RESULTS Op DUAL M551-5 Sweeney-220-yard Dash, 100-yard Dash. ,,..,, ,,,, , 7 1.

With Coach Iansen as pilot and Coach Elliott as co-pilot, we looked forward to a profitable season. Though each conflict was chalked up as a loss, these conflicts were not lost without a fight. lf perseverance could score, we would have had a championship team. 1. In Central's first encounter, she was tripped by South Side Catholic and downed by a score of 12-O. 2. With no signs of recovery from the preceding week, we bowed to the Soldan Tigers, 47-0. 3. Our boys in Red and Black failed to lasso Southwest's Longhorns, and, putting up a courageous fight, were nipped by a score of 14-O. 4. The boys from University City, who were really in full swing, trimmed Central's eleven by tallying 26 points, while Central failed to cross the goal line once. 5. ln our next contest, Central pitted her strength again McKinley. Our Red and Black contestants seemed to lack night owl instincts, as we dropped a night game to McKinley by a score of 26-0. 6. After travelling all the way to Davenport, we failed to get a warm welcome. Our hosts handed us a serious defeat. 7. Beaumont's Blue cmd Gold crew stiff-armed Central and managed to pull a 49-O victory at Central's expense. 8. Central lost her hardest fought battle of the season to Cleveland. Cleveland, despite Central's heroics, subdued her, 13-O.

Bradburn took over the responsibility of guiding Central's basketball team through the eventful season of 1940-41. I say eventful, because of the many one or two- point defeats which stopped Central this season. Several of last year's lettermen returned -together with many hopeful rookies. Despite the fact that many of the players graduated in midseason, the Central Red- wings finished in a tie for third place. This was the first season for Central to be identified by the colorful name Bedwings, Central having dropped the old, and now inappropriate name of Midtowners. This is how it stood as Central faced the coming season. As the opener, Central went to Beaumont and was defeated by a score of 28-16. Wulfe- meyer and Rockamann led the attack to no avail. This was a non-league game. The Central Redwings then dropped their first game to Cleveland in an overtime period of one of the most exciting games played all season. The score was 25-23. Our boys travelled all the way to Cape Girardeau, only to be defeated by Cape Girar- deau's Central by one point. The score, 20-19. Central's next encounter was with St. Louis University High, in which St. Louis Univer- sity was able to overpower Central by a score of 29-21. McBride handed Central a defeat which could just as easily have been a victory for Central, McBride netting a total of 20 points to Central's 18. The Redwings then lassoed, trussed, and branded the Southwest Longhorns with a 44-27 victory, which started the Redwings soaring to new heights. C. B. C. dragged down 39 tallies, while Central managed to procure only 24 points. This game was played at Bethlehem Hall. Beaumonts Blue and Gold was the next contestant against Central's quints as they met in the St. Louis University Gymnasium. Beaumont Won 26-18. Central, for the second time this season, fell on the short end of a one-point defeat to Cape Girardeau's Central High. It began to look as if this losing by one point was going to become a habit. These two games proved to be the most exciting Of the Season. In a non-league game with Fairview, Central's five succumbed to Fairview by failing to get more than 22 tallies, while Fairview chalked up 29. After having had a vacation of two weeks from league games, Central's offensive was fierce and strong enough to cause McKin1ey's five to fall 3 points short of victory, the score being 29-26. With the same vigor and fight they possessed last game, the Central Redwings forged ahead to chalk up a 43-34 victory over the South Side Catholic squad.

Continued from page 142 Roosevelt's Rough Riders halted the Redwings' spurt of victory by givrng them another one-point defeat, and Central bowed to Roosevelt by a score of 31-30. The Soldan Tigers succeeded in clipping the Redwings' feathers, as they tore down Central's usually effective defense, by fighting their way to a 60-38 victory. Soldan Won the cage title for the 1940-41 season. To put a perfect ending to a battling season, Central nipped Blewett by a score of 26-23. As we look back on last season, we begin to realize why Central Redwings had a streak of bad luck in many of their encounters. Central was weakened by havingseveral of her cagemen injured in the first half of the season. But the spunk and fight shown by the team all but made up for the defeats which fell upon them. Central's B squad netted itself a majority of victories during the whole season. -Don Fabian, '41. BASKETBALL RESULTS Ian. Beaumont Central 18 Dec 6 Beaumont Central Ian.

Spurred on by this incentive, it struggled most valiantly and met with fair success. A two-game series with University City at 1-leman Park resulted in an even break, Central losing the first game under a deluge of errors, 12-4, but more than evening scores in the final game by smothering the West-Siders, 17-6.

BASEBALL-1940 Though rated the under-dog, the team opened the league season with a bang, defeat- ing Roosevelt, 5-4. While Elmer Roettger held the Riders in check, Glennon Temme raced home from second, in the final frame, with the Winning run after having singled and stolen second. Another highlight was Red Wulfemeyer's triple in the third which drove the first of the Roosevelt hurlers to the showers. Though we made a great bid for victory by tying the score in the final frame, Cleve- land proved a little too mighty and the result was our first league defeat, 2-l. The Red and Black's second league defeat was at the hands of our neighbor, Beaumont, 3-l. Though out-hitting the Blue and Gold, 5 blows to 3, we lacked the knack of putting them together at the right time. On May 2, Central lost a slugfest to Blewett, 13-9. At this point the team had won l and lost 2. McBride, the next opponent, took us into tow, on a 6-3 score. Wulfemeyer took batting honors by slugging out two of the four hits accumulated. In the next non-league contest, the Midtowners came to life. Not only did the Centralites end their current slump in defeating Fairview, 4-2, but they also obtained much confidence for their next contest. The best game of the season was played with Southwest, who, prior to this game, had been undefeated. With the exception of the second inning in which two errors accounted for the two runs, spectacular fielding contributed to Roettger's three-hit victory. This superb pitching and the fielding, combined with a third-inning stampede in which six runs were garnered, gave us our second league victory. The final score was 8-2. Showing a reversal of form, Central lost to McKinley, 8-5. Our team went into the final frame leading 5-3. Then things began to explode. After the smoke had cleared, five Cold-Bugs had crossed the plate. The final contest with Soldan was a pitCher's duel from start to finish. However, the Tiger's early two-run lead was a little too much for the North-Siders to overcome, the final score being 2-O. ln league competitions Central won 2 and lost 5.

LA. 0101 YOUTH SPEAKS ON DEMOCRACY Second Award in Radio Script Contest NARRATOR: Helen and Mary, two juniors at Central High School, have -been quite angry with each other since the political convention in Philadelphia in the fall. Helen has made up her mind that Mr. Willkie is sure fire for the presidency, but, Mary doesn't agree with her. It so happens they are both attending the same party at Bob Oakland's just before the election. There is a large group of boys and girls from Central, and Bob, fumbling at the radio for a iam session happens to catch a news broadcast. This is what they hear- SCENE I ANNOUNCER: The question of the moment--Who will be our next president, Willkie or Roosevelt? That doubt is in the minds of many right now- SOUND: CDial is quickly turned off while from a corner of the room comes the sound of voices rising in heated arqumentl HELEN: It's true that Mr. Willkie has had no actual experience in public office, but he would be a better leader than Mr. Roosevelt in the tight to preserve our economic and social system, because he believes in the preservation of our system of government. And if Mr. Roosevelt is elected, that preservation is destroyed. MARY: Listen, Miss Know-it-all-do you think that a person who joins a club at Central would at the first meeting be elected president? Of course he would not. He wouldn't know the ways of the club or anything about it. It would take a member of long standing to fulfill such a job in our high school. So that proves that we should not elect such a man as Mr. Willkie to be the head of our government, the most important position in America. HELEN: Mr. Roosevelt would be more likely to get us into war than Mr. Willkie, for more than once he has spoken unwisely toward the dictators, whereas Mr. Willkie would be a tonic for our country. Someone new would stimulate the country. And that is what we need at a time like this. MARY: Oh, no. I think you are very Wrong in thinking Mr. Roosevelt would get us into war: besides, Mr. Willkie has had absolutely no experience in the conduct of foreign affairs, and Mr. Roosevelt is exceptionally well equipped to direct our rearmament. PI-IILLIP: Give them a soap box. MARY: But what do you think of it, kids? No foolin'. You ought to do a little thinking about this election. You've certainly heard enough about it at home at least to have formed some sort of opinion. BOB: I agree with Helen. I think that our country is in a very dangerous spot and Mr. Willkie with fresh ideas could pull us through. BETTY: I agree with Mary. Mr. Roosevelt is a man of experience and it takes a great deal of intelligence and experience if we're to be pulled through this mess on top. MR. OAKLAND: I'm glad to see that you young people have discussed these problems before, but I myself have not decided whom to vote for in the election. We've been Repub- licans for years, but I have my doubts about Mr. Willkie. It's true his personality fits him for the job of stirring the country forward to the great effort it needs, but the American people have been made nervous by fear. And he has been unable to suggest any way of improving Mr. Roosevelt's handling of national defense. One Hundred and Forty nine i -su l-1 il.l LARRY: Mr. Oakland, weren't you in the last World War? MR. OAKLAND: Yes, son. Your Dad and I were in the same infantry. LARRY: Well, then, don't you rather think that if the United States gets into war, Mr. Roose- velt would honestly be able to do more politically than Mr. Willkie? MR. OAKLAND: Yes, son,,I do, but this isn't a one-sided question. I think this presidential election is going to be the greatest in our history. HELEN: I tell you how we'll settle it. After the election the losers will give the winners a party and it can be held at my house. ALL: Swell idea-O. K.-That's all right. NARRATOR: The time flies by and the arguing grows hotter until about 12 o'clock, when the youthful political convention is interrupted- MRS. OAKLAND: My friends-ahem-lunch is served. Now forget about Mr. Willkie and Mr. Roosevelt for a little while. SCENE II ' NARRATOR: It is November 9, 1940, the Friday after the election. All the gang are, gathered in front of the auditorium, after school, for the Republicans have agreed to treat the Demo- crats, at Helen's house, with a party the next night. Ways and means must be discussed . . . HELEN: O. K. kids. See you all tomorrow night at 8 o'clock. ALL: See you later. NARRATOR: It is Saturday night and the Democrats are planning to enoy themselves at the expense of the Republicans. MARY: Where are the spirited elephants tonight? Gosh, it's swell to be a Democrat. BOB: Hey, Heleni Miss Trouble is going to start something. Ican see it in the corner of those eyes. Come in and show her something. tLaughing.l SOUND: Approaching footsteps. A crowd. HELEN: Well, you old donkies, guess the best man won. The fun's on us: so enjoy yourself. Give me your hand, pal. Shake. We might as well smile and forget after all these months. NARRATOR: The weeks pass and now it's February, 1941, at Central and we find Mary and Helen sharing the same seat at English, while Mr. Willkie and Mr. Roosevelt work hand in hand for democracy, not seeming to remember the quarrels before last November. This is America where one can forget and forgive. It's good to be an American! -Mary Iarvis, '42 and Helen Hugman, '42. ESQ ,fig ' ,Q 5 V time .. e tit zaf- f ., rf .5 lit f 3. . 'L ,. .l sg!
