We associate them mainly with the foot- ball season, for it is then that we hear them drilling on-the lot on Front Street, and certainly it is then when all eyes are turned their way as they smartly march across the field in their white uniforms, and boots. They'd make a fine impression on any- one, and we're proud they belong to Central. So, our hats off to you, Fife and Drum Corps!

' WCALL IT A DAYW Although our school band is never too much in evidence after the completion of the football season, we owe them a lot of credit for their fine spirit during that season fespecially the U.E. Game!D. They were on hand for our pep rallies, and as always, under the direction of our effervescent Mr. Lynch. We rather take the band for granted, until we realize just how far we would get Cor wouldn't get!D without our band during the football sea- son. We certainly need their presence when we wish to thunder out with the Fight Song, or any of those other well-known football songs. A singular honor was bestowed upon the band on March 27th, when they were asked to play at the Presentation of the Army- Navy WE' to Ansco Company. Altogether, they have done a fine job the entire year, and we have every right to be proud of the Central band. ' SPURRING ON THE VICTORY , JMX?

'THE SONG 0F THE ARTIST' This isn't an egg Kas Q 0 it probably looks like? but a penguin. How- ever, don't be too dis- couraged because Cen- tral does have some fine art students and you can find them on Thursday nights in Art Club. The members are always busy making pos- ters for the nPann, or a school play, or var- ious contests for art students. There were many blue ribbons given to Central students for the recent art contest at McLean's...we beat North by a long shot. Their work is often admired in the show case by the less fortunate. Maybe some of us should join the Arts and Crafts Club Cunder the able direction of Miss Holcombj and learn to distinguish with a brush the difference between an egg and a penguin. 'THEY KHEH HHAT THEY HANTED' WGood Afternoon, Ladies'...and the Central, North High Debate Clubs were again paying their annual visit to the Binghamton Civic Club. This year Debate Club was under the direction of Mrs. Alice Ver- gason. Instead of the annual debate, the two squads put on a symposium on the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, The prize was equally divided between the two schools. The members of the club donated the money to Dramatics Club with the latter putting it to their own use. All members had fun collabor- ating on the debate but were glad when the nknee-shakingn was over and they could say...0Good Night, Ladies'.
