The Rambler published an article in 1923 about a doctor who claimed that kissing could be hazardous to a young man's health. ln 1925 the election of a girl as a class officer brought about a serious protest by the boys at Central. Despite the occasional campus di- lemmas the students showed genuine interest in their school. ln 1922 the entire student body of Central High attended a performance given by a professional Whistler. Among the senior superlatives listed in the 1927 edition of The Snips and Cuts were - faculty's pet, biggest sheik, and caveman. Amid all the frivolity of the Central High of the 1920's one can feel sure the seriousness of the follow- ing decade was not anticipated. Introduction 13

Central High of the 1930's reflected the economic conditions of the period quite accurately. Central's seniors participated in an annual ac- tivity known as lvey's Day . On this day members of the senior class would assume the roles of all posi- tions held by lvey's employees. The Rambler could be purchased by a plan of5 cents a week for 15 weeks in 1931. Also in 1931 an essential article for most every Central blue wave was a towel ticket. Towels were not supplied without charge - instead one had to purchase a ticket that for 25 cents would allot 15 towels. The towels could be gotten in the main office upon request. As forthe sports scene of the 30's one could say that bridge was considered a major sport around Central High.
