Dedicated to M11 Flo d Vandcrflleer This year's Paean is dedicated to one of Central's most outstanding teachers, Mr. Floyd VanderMeer. Mr. VanderMeer is a man who has greatly influenced many students in past years, as well as this year. This June marks the end of his thirty-fourth year of teachingg thirty-one of them being spent at Central. He was born in Alton, Iowa, graduated from high school in New Jersey, and received his A. B. degree from Hope College in Michigan. He taught for three years in St. Johns, Michigan, and received his M. A. degree from the University of Michigan, before coming to Central. While at Central he has taught history, coached tennis, and handled the audio-visual aids. Mr. VanderMeer has devoted many years to the instruction of students at Battle Creek Central High School, and it is hoped by everyone that he will contribute many more. Therefore we dedicate this Paean to a most de- voted teacher.

T 55 iii is 53 5 T 3gi2,i? The symbol of the 1960 Paean-the modernistic triangle-represents the three important phases of school life. The first and most important of these is the academic phase, or classes. Through academic studies, the student improves his mind and sharpens his appreciation for the things around him. The second phase of school life, athletics, develops the student's body, and engenders in him a sense of sportsmanship and fair play. The third and final side of the triangle represents activities. Activities develop the student's outside interests and leadership ability, and enable him to Work closely with other students on projects which are of interest to him. Each of these three phases is very important to the student. It is through them that each student develops his potentialities and becomes a well-rounded individual. Besides symboliz- ing these three sides of school life, the triangle motif represents the modernistic trend of the decade which is just beginning, and reminds us of the modern additions to our school build- ing. This is why we of the yearbook staff have chosen this modernistic triangle as the symbol for the 1960 Paean.
