This lovable little character, a veteran of many performances, desires to show you Centralites through our Panorama Circus. Of course the staff has consented because we are sure that you will all fall in love with him as we have and that you will enjoy his company as you travel from page to page.

When the school year opened in September, the students and faculty realized that they were suffering a great loss. Mr. Bush, who came to Central in the Fall of l93O, had resigned his position as head of Central's faculty in the latter part of the preceding summer. Our former Principal had the reputation of being a friend ot every student and faculty member of our school. The pleasing personality of this outstanding character has left a deep impression in the minds of all Centralites. They all remember his cheerful manner and his good-natured smileg his co-operative attitude will never be forgotten by them. His attendance at school activities and his presence at club luncheons are examples of the little things which are so characteristic of Mr, Bush and which won much admiration for him from everyone. Of course, the sound advice which the Principal was always willing to offer to all students will not go unremembered. As we all look back over the years that Mr. Bush worked with us and with students who came before us, a deep feeling of appreciation and gratitude finds its place in our hearts. Page Nine Presenting the ringmasters Of a circus nine months long Who keep us after school sometimes To teach us right from wrong. They teach us how to parlez-vous ln German, French and Spanishg They pass around Expressing Yourself' The book we wish they'd banish. In Physics, math, and chemistry They make us look quite bright: We're taught how to make substances And the difference between volume and height They really are quite wonderful They know so many thingsg And then they come to teach us As if we all were kings. And so Cletus says Three cheers To all the teachers in the school Of readin'g writin'g 'rithmetic And of the Golden Rule. 1 E. AQ C .gm ffiuqrdp A, YUTRUDYY Two students discuss their course of study with Miss Edith Van Deusen and Miss Marian Taylor, Girl Coun- selors. Two important ringmasters of Central's own well-managed circus are Mr. E. T. Springmann and Mr. R. L. Schuster. Since Mr. Springmann's arrival at Central there have been more changes than in almost any other time in the school's history. The completion of the new school lounge and lunch- room, two-way stair traffic, and the new locker system are a few of the outward evidences that i946 has been an outstanding year. Our new Principal has been a steadying influence in these changes and in all of Central's activities for the entire year. Mr. Schuster, aside from his activities as Vice-Principal and Boys' Counselor, also guides each graduating class through the maze of activities that goes with it, and produces our annual Memorial Day Assembly. The January and June Proms would lack much spirit and originality if Mr. Schuster failed to support them. Because of the managing ability of these two men, activities constantly move more smoothly. wMW,,.,- Mr. Richard L. Schuster, Boy's Coun- selor, and Mr. Edward Springmann, Principal, discuss some administra- tive problems. W-M 1 The friendly advice given to the girls of Central High by their counselors, Miss Edith VanDeusen and Miss Marian Taylor, is greatly appreciated. The counselor of Junior A and Senior girls, Miss VanDeusen, has been at Cen- tral for four years. In addition to being an understanding dean, she also supervises the activities of Honor Society. Her help to girls consists especially in advising them as to their careers and general choice of subjects. Miss Taylor, who serves as Sophomore and Junior B girls' counselor, came to Central only three years ago. Besides carrying out her stren- uous counselling duties, Miss Taylor acts as a sponsor for the Girl Reserves. To many of Central's young girl students, she is a con- fidant, and a true friend during the many troubles that may arise. Central may well be proud of these two advisors who try to truly counsel, Page Twelve English To be, or not to be, is as familiar to most English stu- dents as Give me liberty, or give me death l The reason for this is the excellent training which they receive from the English Department under the guidance of Miss Corinne Le- mon. The expansive English program presented in our school covers grammar, oral English, and literature. Silas Marner, Arrowsmith, and Macbeth are only a few ofthe works cov- ered by an English student dur- ing his three years at Central. Many pupils enter their English compositions, essays, poems, short stories, and plays in the Scholastic Magazine literary contest. This year there were several winners from our school. Ot course, a great part ot the English Department is the cherished Expressing Your- self. Whenever we speak, read, or write we are sure to -use some knowledge gained from this book and from our entire English course. Top: Miss Avis Balcom, Miss Cor- rine Lemon, Miss Elsie Hillis, Miss Ethel Houck, lfront rowl and Mr. Lloyd Hartman, Mrs. Roy Hasen- pflug, lback rowl discuss the Eng- lish curriculum with Miss Lemon, de- partment head. Bottom: Miss Helen Foley lseatedl, Miss Constance Gantley, Miss Jean Buckley, Miss Christella Masten, Mr. James P.

Middle: Six English students prepar- ing to apply the principles of speech and expression developed in English classes. Page Thirteen i i -pa-my-.-5 qu-nov Today in a world of con- stantly moving events we need to know even more about the things that go on about us. ln order to really understand many of the complexities of the present-day world, we study European History, from the time of the ancient Egyptians to the present moment. Though we may stumble over the order of English kings and the French Republics, this subject is still one of the most interesting taught in Central High. Page Fourteen mn Social Studies When we are out of Central it is not long before we become the active citizens of America. An alert citizen knows some- thing about his country's back- ground and present govern- ment. He is the citizen who will keep the form of government we have today and help im- prove it. Miss Marion Rostiser, head of the Social Studies de- partment, and the other social studies teachers have as their aim the tormation of good citi- zens from Central's students. ..nnanqisan Top: Miss Louise Wulff, Mrs. Ann Crosby, Mrs. Mildred Youngstrom lseatedl Miss Helen 0'Brien and Mr. Michael Bochnak, prepare to discuss some problems of the Social Studies. Middle: Five students of Social Studies examine graphically the ma- jor changes brought about in the Far East by the recent global war. Bottom: Miss Margaret Brown, Miss Marion Rostiser, Miss Bertha Munsell lseatedl and Miss Elizabeth Prior and Mr. James Hogan meet with their department head, Miss Rostiser. Lan guage ' A man who speaks two lan- guages is worth two men. This must be a favorite quotation ot the language department be- cause their aim is to give the students the ability to speak two or more languages well. To some of the pupils struggling with Latin it may not seem valuable to be worth two or three men but when they have completed their study of it, they may better appreciate the language background it has given them. Top: Miss Edna Brown, Miss Loretta Murphy ldepartment headl meet with Mrs. Edna Hinds and Miss Anna Meyer for a modern language con- ference. -. Bottom: Miss Catherine Keenan and Miss Josephine Rosenberg, Latin teachers, meet with Miss Lundy, de- partment head. Middle: An earnest discussion con- cerning the Latin assignment dralws the attention of this industrious group. The knowledge ot a modern language makes one today an interested and interesting per- son. With the world as small as it is now, it is imperative for people to have some working knowledge of a modern lan- guage besides their own whether it is French, Spanish, German, or Russian. Our modern language department, headed by Miss Loretta Mur- phy, tries to make of us, peo- ple who can find our way in the internationally - minded world at today.

Contrary to popular belief it includes not only typing and shorthand, but also business arithmetic, book- keeping, business law, and a thorough course in business machines. Miss Miller is the head of this department, which turns out efficient office work- ers. For persons who are not interested in stenography the other courses offer a varied group of occupations. Top: Miss Mary Miller, Miss Katherine Miller ldepartment headl Miss Helen Murphy lseatedl Miss Alice Lowry, Mr. John Guley, and Miss Elsie Coff- man in the Commercial office. Bottom: Mrs. Elizabeth Ellis, Miss Le- Ia Wickham, Miss Caroline Wads- worth lseatedl , Mrs. Ruth Moyes, Mr. Benjamin Gold, Mrs. Mary Rita Hyde, members of the Commercial depart- ment. Middle: Four commercial students dis- ploy their proficiency in the use of office machines. Page Seventeen For the past terms, in addi- tion to its many subjects con- nected with the commercial course, this department has been offering a special one- term typing course for seniors. lt carries no credit or home- work but gives a general typing background which is useful to anyone who may wish typing knowledge. This course is only one sample of the way the com- mercial department adapts it- self to the needs of the stu- dents of Central. .siewmr -rmfvmwisnm-5: Physical Education 8: Health Among the most popular courses for boys at Central is physical education, better known as gym. Classes are held in Central's gymnasium under the direction of coaches Merz and Buxenbaum. Coach Buxen- baum is a very busy man since he also teaches one of Cen- tral's newest subjects, Health, with Miss Bloom. This latter subject is required for all stu- dents and gives a general hy- giene background. lt features movies on various health topics and teaches the importance of a healthy body. Page Eighteen . Library, Attendance, Administration Assistant Almost every student in Cen- tral comes in contact at some time with one of the Big Three namely the librarians, attendance officer, and admin- trative assistant. All readers and seekers of information are familiar with our well stocked library. Any person who has had the urge to be excused from a seventh period study hall knows Mrs. Wilcox, the at- tendance official. Our admin- istrative assistant is Mrs. Mc- Davitt whose headquarters are the main office and who helps with the details of running our school. Top: lSeatedl Mrs. Grace Kelley, and Miss Sara Burns, librarians. Mrs. Edna McDavitt, administrative assistant, and Mrs. Rose Wilcox, attendance. Bottom: Mr. Henry Mer: and Miss Anna Bloom lseatedl meet with Mr. Harris Buxembaum, lstandingl . Middle: Mr. Harris Buxenbaum pre- pares to show a film demonstrating the proper method of safe guarding health. Mathematics Did you ever get lost in the mazes of solid geometry, trigo- nometry, or advanced algebra, or are you struggling with plane geometry? It so, you must have met one of the members of Central's growing Mathematics department. The importance of Math has been realized even more as we see the increasing numbers of vet- erans returning to these classes. ln many of today's occupations math is a basic requirement and its higher branches are be- ing studied industriously at Central. Top: Mrs. Letita Snow, Mrs. Blanche Beers, Mrs. Lida Knight lseatedl and Mr. William Hogan, Mrs. Evelyn Ash- ford, Mr. John Galale discuss math problems with Mrs. Beers ldepart- ment headl . Bottom: Mr. Earl Dooley lScience de- partment headl shows the results of some tiration to Miss Kathryn Hyland and Mr. John Grace. Middle: A problem in Geometry accu- pies the attention of a group of live students as they diligently go over their math assignment. Science Two of the most difficult subjects taught at Central are Physics and Chemistry. This charactertistic of these studies does not, however, make them uninteresting or detract from their fascination. Under the in- struction of excellent teachers, science students are constantly realizing the importance of these subjects in an atomic- minded world. The laboratory periods are looked forward to with much anticipation and anxiety. ln these labs the stu- dents are able to see worked out principles which they learned in class. Page Nineteen Bottom: Mrs. Lillian Perkins lde- partment headl, Mrs. Ruth Tanner, and Miss Dagmar Wultt examine a display prepared by their domestic science students. Art Another interesting subject is Art which is taught by Miss Holcomb. The students taking art make posters for all kinds of contests and drives. They al- so learn design and representa- tion. The Art Department aids in all productions held at Cen- tral. In addition to these exist- ing jobs the art department al- so teaches the basic principles of drawing. Recently some art classes did portraits of their classmates and self portraits. Many art entries from Central won Scholastic awards. Music The Music Department has been going full swing all year, with two new instructors. Miss Thornburn heads the choir and chorus which have been carry- ing on their usual school ac- tivities, including a Christmas program. The band and orches- tra led by Mr, Nemeth, have played at several evening shows at Central. This department has been given an added lift by the purchase of an organ, a gift from past graduating classes. The organ opens and closes each assembly. Homemaking On the girls' side' of the led- ger their most useful subject seems to be homemaking. This course includes child care, cooking, interior decoration, sewing, and lessons in poise and etiquette. Whether a girl plans to make her career in one of these fields or is just storing up knowledge for future use, anything she learns in this course is bound to be useful. ln the kitchen of the home- making department a girl can learn all the fundamentals of cooking. Top: Miss Grace Holcomb discusses proper use of color with one of her art students. Middle: Miss Marion Thornburn and Mr. Albert Nemeth prepare a duo of music pupils tor an assembly pre- sentation. Page Twenty Secretaries The efficient running of our school depends largely on our staff of secretaries who are usually found in the main of- fice. They handle all business from lost and found to switch- board. This staff also includes the staff of the bookroom when the students line up for books, materials, and school tokens. Another person in this group is Mrs. Coffman who handles school money from stamp sales, club dues, and all other school finances. Custodians The mechanical functioning of our school can be credited to our staff of custodians. They keep the school wa rm in winter, cool in summer, and running all the year round. They keep the bells ringing, ink wells filled, and do all the other odd jobs necessary in any building or school. They also have the job of erasing all those cam- paign appeals and pep boosters from the blackboards. As a re- sult of their hard work our school keeps running smoothly. Top: Mrs. Genevieve Driscoll, Miss Veronica Bolas, Miss Doris Igler, Miss Dorothy Tanner lseatedl, Miss La- yenia Kernaklian, Miss Marjorie Decker, Mrs. Mary Brown, Miss Mar- garet Linehan, members of the sec retarial staff. Bottom: Mr. Robert Jennison, Mr. Charles Whitcomb, Mrs. Mary Mack lseatedl, Mr. Paul Andross, Mr. William Butterfield, Mr. William Mann, Mr. Thomas Mangan, all who help maintain our building.

Come in to meet and talk with the general managers of the Big Top, see one of the most enthusiastic, vigorous, and hard- working groups under our spacious tent! Yes, the General Organization of Central High School might be considered a group of general managers of student problems and affairs. Each term this organization hears complaints and suggestions from students who want to maintain Central's reputation as a first rate school. The results of these discussions are usually actions which serve their pur- pose and help to run our school more smoothly, The fall term was manaed by a capable group that lived up to the high standards of their offices. James Norris as President, George Col- man as Vice President, and Sonia NeJame as Secretary started the ball rolling. Joyce Hackett served as the first Treasurer of Central. Our school spirit and enthusiasm was pepped up I-:if considerably by a festive celebration of Papa Cen- tral Day. All the students cast aside their regular ,., clothes and attended classes clad in blue jeans and bright plaid shirts. As is the tradition at Central, l ! ' Papa Central was at the mass pep rally at the Court House with his not-so-beautiful daughter, Betsy. C To end the special holiday there was a sport dance for everyone. At the suggestion of General Organizations a 1 change was made in the corridor traffic system of if our school. The old up and down system of stairs I was abolished, and now a student may use any stairs for going up or down. Mr. William Hogan as faculty advisor is sup- ported by a stimulated and eager group of General Managers. Page Twenty-Four James Norris as President, George Colman as Vice-President, Sonia Nelame as Secre- tary, and Joyce Hackett as Treasurer man- aged the General Organization during the Fall Term. 4, way Under the management of George Colman as President, Mary Ann McDonald as Vice- President, Mary Lucas as Secretary, and .lack Russell as Treasurer, the General Organization had a busy Spring Term. is Caralers sing by G.

Don't go home, folks, until you've met our general managers of the Spring General Organization .... Come in and talk with them, they have plenty of ideas for fun and laughs .... Don't go home until you've met George Colman, the President of GO., Mary Ann McDonald, the Vice President, Mary Lucas, the Secretary, and Jack Russell, our Treasurer ,... Meet the entire organization that has been constantly on the GO all term. Yes, the Spring General Organization was as lively and enthusiastic as that of the Fall. The new officers strove to keep up the excellent reputation of their student government and were very successful in carrying out their purpose. Under these new leaders the G.O. meeting served as the birth place for many new and radical ideas. Very noticeable among these was a request that the library be open for student use during the lunch hour and until four- thirty in the afternoon. A survey was taken in the If Q , x homerooms following this suggestion. lt was found Q Z ' S that the majority of students favored the proposal E E C W and that they would all find the new system useful. X Nf LSC As a result, after the librarian and the faculty heads kgq qjj W had given their approval, the libary functioned un- LZ' der a new time schedule for the rest of the term. The student government also purchased a new Lg memorial honor roll of Central's boys who lost their f lives in the service of their country. During the war f an appropriate temporary list of names was hung in the corridor at the main front entrance, but this thoughtful group recognized the need for a perma- nent record. The student body of Central may well , be proud of its student government.

One of the strictly feminine clubs in Central is the Literary Club, boasting thirty fine intelligent bookworms from the junior and senior classes. This year is something special with the girls, for it is their fiftieth anniversary. Don't ask silly questions, of course Miss Constance Gantley is the guiding light of this group. The fall term officers were Mary Jane Madden, Mary Ellen Williams, Kay Hambel, and Carolyn June Marks. During this term a formal initiation was held at the home of Jane Ann Feeck, a penny supper, a formal luncheon, and of course a traditional sandwich sale. The spring term found Marjory Seuerbrey in command assisted by Patricia Riley, Betty Rae Ruthven, and Barbara Teal. The most important work during this term was the preparation for their annual assembly program held on June 3. Hats off to the busy book bugs. Who's running the dance? Who's party is it? Who's sponsoring those basketball games? Why of course, the answer to those questions and many others is Hi-Y. lt seems living up to the ideals of clean living can certainly be more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Just listen to the past officers, Doug Shirley, Dave Merrilees, and look at the records of secretary Charles Doerner and treasurer Bill Giragosian. lt can be profitable, too. For instance, the boys ran a concession at the basketball games this year, and it was definitely a successful project. Don't forget the big Splash Party held at Hi-Y headquarters in the Y.M.C.A. Why, the activities included everything from swim- ming llt was the first time girls had a chance to use the poolll and dancing to ping pong and other games. Hi-Y certainly is behind school projects one hundred per cent. This year, it was Hi-Y that gave you swing-friends the music to jive to every noon in Central's Lounge. The spring officers, George Coleman, Arthur Gordon, Basil Bohevesky and Charlie Crockett have worked hard and have kept the good record of Hi-Y one of the most outstanding of Central's many organizationsL We musn't forget a great deal has been made possible because of a wonderful leader.

Let me introduce myself, said the funny little fellow as he stepped into 3lO on a sunny Spring day. l'm Cletus the Clown. At that very moment the Pan Annual Staff decided to engage Cletus as their guide in taking every Centralite to the circus through the eyes of their year book. With the help of Mr. John Grace as faculty advisor, Mary Jane Madden as Editor-in-Chief, and Marilyn Begasse as Business Manager, Cletus and the staff planned a wonderful tour through their make-believe circus, which now extends from cover to cover. The good-natured little clown posed for many hours as the Art Editor, Robert Don- nelly, reproduced this comical tigure upon the pages of the Panorama. For many weeks typewriters clicked as ca meras flashed. Yes, Robert Frederick and John Gorton were on the job as usual, but they had to work fast to keep up with typists Florence Popowich, Helen Dervay, and Dorothy Sedor. Since Cletus was always on hand Janet Con- stine, Doris Williams, and Norene Thorson had little trouble recalling scenes from the circus for the trophy cases. Now, Cletus says good-bye to the proud statt as Centralites every- where tour their circus. xo it 1' Mary Jane Madden as Editor-in-chief and Robert Donnelly as Art Editor plan some last-minute changes in the yearbook.

FOSTER The Little Minister gove high honors to Dramatics Club when it was presented in our auditorium on the nights of November 30th and December lst. Written by James M. Barrie and dramatized by Roland Fernand, the play took place in the Scotch village of Thrums in the I86O's. The struggle of young Gavin Dishart, the Little Minister, to goin the con- fidence of those in Thrums was enlivened by the presence of Bobbie the gypsy girl who Seemed to be a combination of both witch and elf in character. The story of how Gavin finally won the love of Bobbie and the confidence and respect of the Thrum-folk provided a thrill- ing drama for those in the audience. The spring production, l'll Leave lt to You, was a hilarious comedy. The three-act play, written by Noel Coward, took place in England at the present time at Mulberry Manor, the home of the Dermott family. Because Uncle Daniel claimed he had a huge fortune to leave to one of the Dermott children, many amusing complications arose. The love interest was supplied by Bobbie and Faith, but it was Sylvia who finally showed her family the benefits of Uncle Daniel's false promise. The play was full of laughs and highly entertaining.

Action - that's Central's i946 Dramatics Club. Thanks to their marvelous di- rector, Mrs. Margaret Hasenpfug, our talent has certainly had ample opportunity to do their stuff. lt has taken plenty of hard work as well as cooperation and team-work to present two one-act plays and of course those two always-looked-forward-to semi-annual evening performances. Never let it be said that Central's team doesn't know the score. With Johnny Gorton and George Coleman holding the reins, the members have learned the why's and wherefore's of producing the acting. Just glance at this year's notes lwhich by the way, have been kept up to date by Sonia NeJame and Patty Lou Hall.l Those meetings certainly are lively, especially when our local critics tear apart a new play or plan for future production. Yes, it's like seeing your name in lights on Broadway lwell practicallyl to be able to say, I belong to Dramatics Club. lt is newl lt has got to be good! lt's Central's Girl Reserves. After only two years of service, this organization can certainly hold its own when compared to any club here in Central. Under the leader ship of Miss Marion C. Taylor, the girls just had to make good. Of course the officers they selected, Dorothy Bistram, Elizabeth Milensky, Delores Juriga, and Mildred Miller, made it a sure thing, the girls couldn't help but have a group all Centralites are proud of, lf a girl wants sports, handicraft or dramatics - Girl Reserves have it. Or if it's some social affairs you'd like to have a part in, just join Girl Reserves. The highlight of their events for i946 was a wonderful World Fellowship Dinner held at Girl Reserve headquarters in the Y.W.C.A, A program that was a little out of this world because of unique costumes from countries all over the world, was brought back to earth by the donation of a large sum to help relieve the needy in war ravaged zones. Centralites owe much to Girl Reserves for the shining record they have added to the name of our school. Remember -- lt it's Girl Reserves, it's got to be good!

Besides singing purely for enjoyment, the group presented a delightful medley of songs at the annual Memorial Day Assembly. The appro- priate tunes sung by the choristers are still hummed in Central's spacious corridors. Also memorable is the impressing Christmas Assembly in which the enthusiastic choir partici- pated. At this performance, Glory Keyes presented a Christmas story and was accompanied by beautiful holiday carols sung by the choir. The notes of Oh, Little Town of Bethlehem resounding through the halls added much to the festivities of the season. One dark cloud fell upon this usually cheerful group when their well-liked leader, Pop Hartley, resigned his honored position and left Central. Miss Marion Thornburn was, how- ever, received with much enthusiasm by the songsters,,and soon both A capella Choir and Festival Chorus were raising their voices in harmony. Under first-class management once again, this melodious group of vocal enthusiasts is keeping its name high on Central's list of successful organizations. Joe Crupi provides some rhythm. x MW ' x 1 Gt-:ASX H-W Page Thirty Nine YY ve , W Y anmieuw, zzz draw af we Page Forty Marilen Torleton as General Officer, David Bloom as President, Miss Vanbeusen as faculty advisor, and Eunice Goundrey as Secretary have steered Honor Society through a successful term.

The gold key, a symbol of excellence beyond the call of duty, is worn by the forty present members. With Douglas Shirley as Fall President, Charles Doerner as General Officer, and Alice Opryska as Secretary, the term's activities began with a flying start and were continued when' David Bloom as President, Marilen Tarleton as General Officer, and Eunice Goundry as Secretary took over in the Spring term. The foremost project of Honor Society is the Talkey, a newspaper sent to our sailors, soldiers, and marines.

Containing articles about sports, assemblies, clubs, faculty, students, and special city events, The TaIkey is like another letter from home for the boys. As Editor during the Fall term, Sonia Nelame published four issues which were read by the more than ZOO Yanks from Central.

The fall term found Jack Russell, president, planning a busy schedule. The club celebrated the Christmas holiday with much yuletide spirit by singing familiar carols in German as well as by eating many kinds of German baked goods. In February, David Bloom, newly elected president, welcomed another eventful season. The club was shown many of Germany's loveliest sights by means of a machine which enlarged picture postal cards. A quiz program which would have stumped the experts of ln- formation Please was conducted in German with the club members giving S64 answers. Der Deutsche Verein produced an entertaining skit in German. The season was terminated by a traditional annual picnic. All work and no play certainly has not dulled the record of Central's i946 Red Cross Council. lt has been a case of all for one, and one for all this year. The cooperation and teamwork exhibited by the council members, and also the Art Department who made several navy posters, made it possible to accomplish more during the year than was thought possible. Of course, the finest spirit would have been useless without nearly IOOCMQ of all Cen- tralites digging deep into their pockets for some mighty generous contributions. Without these funds it would have been impossible to pack numerous boxes of toys, games, school supplies, and other practical articles for the deprived children of war-ravaged and war-torn countries. Aided by our able guide, Miss Wadsworth, Central has gained the praiseworthy reputation of o friend in need. Page Forty -Three Amlwhdiamcw mm What, besides cheering, spurs our boys through to victory on the gridiron? lt's that blue and white clad group of musicians who have done themselves proud by building up the pep and spirit of the sport enthusiasts. The clever, fancy stepping of Drum Maiorette Norene Demer has led the bond in the V. J., Armistice, and Memorial Day parades. Richard Rowley as President, Edward Taylor as Vice President, Kenneth DePew as Secretary, Jack Russell as Treasurer, and Shirley Stengel as Librarian guided the organization in a successful year. The band is rightfully proud of its cornet quartet which was rated one at the recent music contest. Receiving little credit is the orchestra which included many hard-working music en- thusiasts. lt is to their rendition of Pomp and Chivalry that we come and leave o play or other entertainment. The orchestra played for The Little Minister and l'll Leave lt To You. Gertrude Hartman as violinist, Helen:Taylor as celloist, and Shirley Stengel os pianist make up the String Trio which has played for assemblies and outside societies. A large group of contestants shuffled off to Owego this year for the New York State Music Contest. All eyes turn their way as the Drum Corps begin to twirl their batons, beat their drums, and play their fifes on the football field. We're proud they belong to Central as they im- pressively march across the field in their white satin dresses and boots. Led by the snappy stepping and twirling of Patricia Hendershot, the group added to the spirit of the school by marching on Papa Central Day as well as in other parades. This year Beverly Sisson and Janice Lake were drum sergeants with Ruth Zwick as fife sergeant. One of the most noticeable changes made in the Band Room was the departure of Mr. Lynch. He took with him the respect and appreciation of all the students. Mr. Albert Nemeth, just out of the service, capably succeeded Mr. Lynch. Both of these men were honored at the Annual Christmas Party. The sweet strains of violins, the melodious tone of the french horn, the blare of the trumpet, and the fast routines of the drums add much to the glory of B. C. H. S. Hats off to you, musicians!

After each bi-weekly meeting those refreshments that are served are - m-mm good! The Dom Econ has its serious side, too, and are members of the national organization of the Future Homemakers of America. Giving generously of their time and effort, the girls have contributed much during l946. Bringing Christmas cheer to the ladies in the Fairview Home with a program, gifts, and some more of those mouth-water- ing refreshments, was an experience that none of the girls will ever forget. The Mother's Day dinner and the Halloween party were other events of Dom Econ during the year. Under the never tiring and energetic guidance of Mrs. Ruth Tanner and under the leadership of Mary Warren, Lois Stewart, Billy Page, and Eleanor Zurner as officers, Dom Econ's members are blazing a trail as they gain experience as the Homemakers of the Future. The men behind the gun. Thot's the i946 stage crew. This ambitious group of Cen- tralites is certainly on the beam, and don't be surprised if that's where you find them some afternoon. Without these Jack-of-all-trades, Central assemblies just wouldn't amount to that! ln fact, there wouldn't be any assemblies. Their motto is the play must go on and the wonderful job done on lighting, curtains, scenery, and all around repair for each perform- ance, outside as well as school assemblies, certainly shows that this is not empty talk. Each time the stage in an auditorium is used, the stage crew adds another job and activity to a very long list. These boys like to feel that the stage behind the curtain is solely their re- sponsibility and in a way, their property. Why even dusting and cleaning is a part of the routine.

Step inside and see the famous Pro et Con Club of Central High School .... Hear their strong voices raised in argumentative tones .... Come in and listen! . . . Yes, the Pro et Con Club of our school certainly debated some issues this term. Mr. J. P. Kavanaugh kept the voices of his group going from September until June. The constantly arising labor-management problems of our country were discussed in full by the Debate Club members and some representatives of North High School. A number of members of the Civic Club attended the interesting debate. Probably the debate closest to the hearts of the club members was one entitled Two Much Homework, which was enjoyed by everyone con- cerned. Of course, there were other debates on current problems and other interesting topics. All in all, there is one point that cannot be debated or discussed by anyone - Pro ef Con had a busy yearl Paint brush and pallette in hand, it's the members of Central's Art Club ready to lend a helping hand. Because of the large number of talented Centralites that enjoy drawing, i946 has been one of the most productive yea rs in the history of this art organization. The officers, Jean Mayberry, Irene Kulik, and Nancy Mery found it difficult to keep an accurate record of this year's numerous projects. Under the excellent leadership of Miss Grace Hol- comb, who has been a member of Central's faculty for a number of years, Art Club has cooperated with other schools and clubs and aided them in their specific projects by making posters as in the case of Red Cross and Dramatics Club. For their own pleasure, the talented artists spend a great deal of time in painfully perfecting paintings, drawings, and even sculptures. Don't hesitate to intrude upon Centralite's deeply engrossed in their work in room 325. lf you want an artistic job done to perfection, call on the Art Club. , Page Forty-Seven 14nclnaw...7fzo4eaJLokeeplfae6'0zcu4 First row: Milton Bernstein, Alice Boghossian, Mildred Cruty, John Lonnon, Jayne Brosman, Stanley Bruckheim, Joan O'Connor, Stephie Jung- man, Donald Bronsky.

A good deed for to-day. Yes siree,-that certainly has been the motto of Central's scouts, the Student Staff Assistants. The fellows and girls of this group really display a wonderful spirit of co- operation. lt seems, however, that the best part of this bargain is the fun attached to each of a variety of assignments. A staff assistant may be devoting a period each day to one of the counselors or in the clinic or to Mrs. Coffman. Perhaps the four or more hours each week are spent keeping the study halls in order or keeping the nifty new lounge strictly a student hangout. Certainly each member of the organization from the friendly hostess in the front corridor to the bookworm in the library is doing an important job in the school. The assistants believe, however, that all work and no play make a club very dull. And so it happens that member indulge once in awhile in a little gab or listen to the latest records in the lounge. The two historians, Mary Ellen Hawley and John Lonnon will also agree that they have never found a more capable and energetic group. The SS Corps as the assistants are fondly dubbed, are the cream of the crop and though they believe the more the merrier each member must have a scholastic record not lower than a C average. This qualification limits the members to those who can participate without interfering with their school work. Mr. Springmann, advisor to the group, has done a great deal to improve both the quality and quantity of service, and the spirit of the club. His motto is that his Student Staff is rarin' to go. Congratulations to the Student Staff and to their leaders for the year, Edith Hawker and Jane Brosnan for a job well done.

C. 7 B. C. H. S. 14 Norwich 13 Page Fifty-Six The Bulldogs of Central opened their I946 season at North High Stadium in an auspicious fashion. Despite a pouring rain and a heavy field Hank Merz's charges bowled over a heavy Syracuse Vocational team l2-0. The uncertain footing and slippery ball handicapped the Blue during the first period and it wasn't until midway of the second period that Jinx Agatheas climaxed a 40 yard drive by plunging over from the 2-yard line. ln the third stanza Central showed their defensive strength by stopping the only Voca- tional threat of the game. A Syracuse pass was completed on Central's 5 for a first down but the Bulldogs stopped Vocational cold and took over on downs on their own 19. In the last quarter Joe Mica blocked a Vocational punt and recovered on the opponent's 30. A pass to Ron Letavish carried to the 9 and in two more plays Jinx Agatheas scored again to make it a final l2-0 for Central. The second game of the season saw the Bulldog taste his first defeat un- der the lights at Johnson City. Before a sellout crowd the Maroon unleashed a veteran team which narrowly eked out a 7-0 verdict over the Blue. Twice in the first half Central penetrated deep into,J. C. territory, once to the 8, where a l5 yard penalty set them back, and a second time to the IZ, where a fourth down attempt fell a yard short. In the opening minutes of the second half J. C. recovered a Central fumble and on the next play Silvanic raced 30 yards for the only touchdown of the game. Despite the handicap of play- ing under the lights and facing a heavier, more experienced team the Bull- dogs acquitted themselves well, holding the undefeated, champion Wildcats to their narrowest margin of the season. The purple of Norwich played host to the Bulldogs in their third and one of the most thrilling games of the year. In perfect football weather and backed by the band and drum corps who journeyed to Norwich, the Blue and White nosed out a tough Norwich eleven I4-l3. Central scored first in the opening period when after a series of reverses by Bill Haskins, Jinx Aga- theas went over from the 2 and passed to Ronnie Letavish for the extra point. Norwich came back in the second period to score a touchdown but failed to convert making the score 7-6 at half time. ln the third period a Norwich back uncorked a 60 yard sprint to score their second marker. The point after touchdown was good and Norwich led l3-7 at the end of the third period. ln the last stanza the Bulldogs pulled all their tricks out of the bag. Mixing plunges by Carl Zelinka and Jinx Agatheas, a pass to Letavish and finally a reverse by Bill Haskins into paydirt, the Bulldogs covered 45 yards to score. With the score tied at l3-l 3, Jim Nash was sent in by Coach Merz to decide the issue. With clock-like rhythm he booted the ball squarely between the uprights and decided the issue l4-I3 for Central. Pete Smyk i25i, Bill Haskins i56i, Elmer Dino 153i and Bill Marusich 1601 close in and hold the opposition to no gain. B. C. H. S. 44 North B. C. H. S. 7 Ithaca B. C. H. S. O Manlius The next game of the year was the traditional battle of the city teams Central and North. Forecasters predicted a close battle with Central rated a slight edge. No one was prepared, however, for what happened as the Bull- dog really let the Big Top down on the lndians. ln the first period Jinx Agatheas scored one touchdown and repeated in the second stanza. Jim Nash kicked a beautiful field goal from 27 yards out at a bad angle and converted both extra points. North displayed their only offensive threat of the game in this period scoring a touchdown and converting ending the half at l7-7. ln the second half the scoring parade began. Bill Marusich went around end for one touchdown, Agatheas passed 50 yards in the air to Bill Haskins who went 25 more for the second marker of the half. Agatheas romped over for his third touchdown after an intercepted pass set the stage and Ernie Wheelock climaxed the parade by going over on an end around play. The final tally showed six touchdowns, five conversions and a field goal by Jim Nash to make the scoreboard read 44-7 in the most remarkable display of offensive power put on by the Blue all year. After the North romp of the week before the Merzmen were rudely jolted by a fighting ithaca eleven at Ithaca. The Blue opened nicely and pushed within the shadows of the Ithaca goal only to be repulsed by a dogged Ithaca line. ln a few minutes the tables were reversed and it was the Bulldog line which was forced to halt an Ithaca threat. The game seesawed back and forth with the Bulldogs unable to get their offensive rolling and Ithaca putting over a marker to lead 6-O. On several occasions the Bulldogs seemed to be hitting their stride but each time a fumble, a penalty, or that formidable lthaca line stopped the surge. With the game rapidly drawing to a close and with defeat staring them in the face Central struck like a bolt of light- ning. From his own goal line Jinx Agatheas flipped a pass to Ernie Wheelock in the flat and Ernie raced almost the length of the field to the 5. Fi'om this point Jinx Agatheas carried the ball over on an end run. Once again the issue was squarely up to Jim Nash and once again he came through with a perfect boot and a 7-6 decision for the Bulldogs. The following Saturday saw our team journey to Manlius to play the un- defeated Manlius prep school team. This Manlius team was truly a great aggregation and had smothered all opposition for two years. lt was just a little too much to expect a victory over this aggregation but the Bulldogs certainly tried. Fighting valiantly they held the heavier, more experienced prep school team to an l8-O verdict in a game which was closer than the score indicates. Some solace in defeat was gained by the knowledge that the Blue registered twice as many first downs against Manlius in one game as had been registered in all games before. Page Fifty-Seven B. C. H. S. 20 North B. C. H. S. 7 U. E. 6 Page Fifty-Eight ,The opponent's attempt to steal the ball is thwarted as Jinx holds on and registers a first down. The next week saw a resumption of the Central-North rivalry which had opened so surprisingly a few weeks before. On this occasion the bitter cold and snow must have spurred the Northmen, for they offered more formidable opposition and the Blue did not roll up such an overwhelming score. This contest saw Cas Skurski, Dmitri Grivas, and DeWitt Pine acquitting them- selves nobly in substitute roles. The Blue employed novel spread formations with single and double laterals and but for some inopportune penalties and fumbles would have rolled up a more impressing score. Jim Agatheas scored two touchdowns and Pete Smyk one, and Jim Nash converted for two points. North tallied once on a pass and converted so that the final tally read Cen- tral ZO, North 7. All eyes were focused on North High Stadium on Thanksgiving Day as l0,000 fans jammed their way in to witness the big Turkey Day festivities, The weather was clear but as usual in this game, the field was sloppy and the footing uncertain. Coach Ty Cobb of U-E released an Orange Tor- nado that was determined to blow down the Big Top of the Bulldogs. As the game started it was evident that the Orange meant business for midway in the first period they pushed across a touchdown after a drive of 34 yards resulting from a fumble. Early in the second canto they seemed headed for a second marker when Pete Smyk, acting captain for the day, snared a U-E pass on his own 9, veered toward the sidelines, picked up blockers, and raced 9l yards to score. Once again it was Jim Nash who cooly booted the ball through the uprights to put Central ahead 7-6, During the second half neither team was able to make a serious bid to score as both lines played bang-up ball. Although Central employed tricky laterals the boys handled the ball well and produced relatively few fumbles in view of the muddy con- ditions. The fancy punting of Bill Marusich kept the Bulldog out of trouble and on one occasion he boomed one down the field for 7l yards. Three pass interceptions by the Blue helped to keep their goal line unsullied and to throttle the vaunted Orange attack. lt certainly was a tired but game bunch of Bulldogs who trotted off the field at the conclusion of hostilities with the scalp of the Orange in their belts and boasting one of the best seasons of recent years.

The little Bulldogs of the Junior Varsity football team under the direction of Coach Henry Merz, won themselves a round of applause for their stellar performance during the past season. Despite the handicap of playing under the tutelage of a small coaching staff and with infrequent scrimmages together as a team, the J. V.'s worked well together. The only blot on their record was the first game of the season when Vestal upset Central's green outfit, The record of the Junior Varsity for the season of '45 gave Coach Merz deep satis- faction as he watched for Varsity material for '46, and many of the boys will be earning their Varsity letters next fall.

This year Robert Hendrickson, as head cheerleader had a willing group of enthusiasts who attended many out-of-town games to cheer the teams to victory. Besides contributing to the morale of the team and to the spec- tators, the cheerleaders sold programs at all of the games, which made it easier for amateur spectators to understand the games and to identify players. The chief group of cheerleaders was aided by the following people who served as sub-cheerleaders: Agnes Kolesinkas, Olga Durella, Jeanine Campbell, Marian Hafey, Mildred Miller, Phillis Dunlap, Loretta Kirch, Janet Pollack, Patricia Morris, Dorothy Bis- tram, Shirley Shiffer, Josie Fertig, James Larrabee, Eugene Keefe, John Paul, Rob- ert Campos.

Resuming activity in the Southern Tier Scholastic Conference after a war time suspen- sion of league hostilities, Coach Harris Buxenbaum's Blue and White cage squad started the season with only one returning lettermen, James Agatheas, and prospects looked dim indeed. The necessity of playing away from school on the Old Armory floor did not help matters as much time was lost from practice in travelling back and forth. However, the aggregation which Buxie trotted out to open the season at Elmira Free Academy although short on experience was long in spirit. The tough Elmira outfit was too much for the Bulldogs and they succumbed 36-32. Returning home a win was registered over U. E. in a thrilling game 29-25. Then followed successive out-of-town wins at Utica and Vestal. Ithaca turned up at the Armory on an off night for the Bulldogs and chalked up a close 36-3.3 win over the Blue. Two more wins were then gained over Utica and Elmira Southside. The most exciting game of the first half saw North register a close 44-40 win in a game in which the outcome was in doubt to the final whistle. A string of three victories over J. C., Cortland, and Emlira fol- lowed, when along came the championship U. E. outfit to triumph over the Bulldogs 44-28. Six successive victories over Vestal, Ithaca, Elmira Southside, J. C., North, and Cortland con- cluded the regular season. At the conclusion of regular season play the record showed l2 won and 4 lost in league competition with 2 non league victories over Utica. ln the sectional playoffs following regular season play the Blue almost pulled the biggest upset of the court season by leading U. E. all the way only to lose out in the last five seconds by a score of 46-44. No one who followed the Bulldogs will ever forget that thrilling game in the sectionals and the brilliant playing of Fred Duite in the first half. Although no championship was gained the team played well - so well that no team except U. E. held an advantage over the season's play. The scoring brigade was topped by Fred Duite with l99 points and Fred Eydt with l7l points. Performing well in the back court were Charlie Stevesky and John Zdimal while Jinx Agatheas served as the steadying influence and the defensive man as- signed to guard the opposition's scoring threat.

Second row: Dominic Lomonico, Robert Kniffen, Bernard Sodonrs, Mr. Guley, coachg John Hoch, Joseph Kaschok, Peter Kurbanick, manager. The preliminary or first game boys provided real entertainment and earned themselves an enviable record the past season. Coached by John Guley, they rode roughshod over all opposition and wound up league activity with a l5 to l record. However, for one close de- feat at the hands of J. C. by the narrow margin of 22-l8, they were forced to play a set of playoff games with J. C. and North, These last two proved no jinx and the little Bull- dogs easily clinched their title with 43-29 and 34-28 decisions. Paced by Bernie Sadonis with l43 points and Sabu Saliby with l28 points the Jayvees outscored their opponents for the seoson by a margin of 628 to 392. This almost two to one edge is ample evidence of the superiority of the J. V.'s. ln cutting this wide swathe the J. V.'s afforded many thrills as the boys dribbled and passed, feinted and shot in their climb to higher competition on the Varsity. Centralites all hope that future J. V. teams will keep up the good work of the '46 championship outfit. Fred Dime 9995 fha jump, Central controls the ball off the backboard.

Despite the gruel- ling grind and sweating ordeal of nature's barriers, they man- aged to earn a fine reputation for coach Ben Puglisi in his debut as coach. Paced by such stalwarts os Elton Klein, Joe Kolosna, Dave Palmer, and Ed Curtis, they won dual meets over Vestal, Oxford, and North twice. They also finished sec- ond inthe Triple Cities lnvita- tional Meet and in the Central Invitational Meet. ln the Sec- tional Championship, added glory was attained by a third place finish against the tough- est of competition. l-lots off to these boys who despite the ele- ments and obstacles of nature chugged their way to glory. INTRA-MURAL BASKETBALL CentraI's Intra-Mural League drew the entries of ten teams. These hustling basketeers en- gaged in a hard-fought series of contests during the noon hour. At the conclusion of hos- tilities for the season, the Scoreless Wonders emerged as winners with a record of 9 won and O lost. St. Cyrils paced by Joe Kolosna and Mike Baron finished second and were fol- lowed by St. Johns led by Jim Nash and Jim Moriarity.

Second row: Norman Decker, Thomas Martinkovic, Albert Oleski, Michael Baran, Alex Poplowsky, John Kuzel, John Pavlik. . Coach Frank Clark's Central Bowlers again walked off with the laurels in the Triple Cities League. Led by James Ondrako with a l8O average and Alex Popolowsky with a l78 average, the Central keglers registered Zi victories against three losses to take first place in regular league competition. ln special events, the team had high three game average with 2,686 pins, while Alex Popolowsky had high three games average of 600 pins and Al Oleski had high single game of 24l. The season was slightly marred by the results in the Sectionals when the team fell short by six pins of winning. The J.V. squad also won first place honors in their league winning I9 games and losing four. Fred Foltyn was high single man with a 22l game. The J.V.'s added to the lustre of the Varsity squad and our congratulations are heartily extended to both squads for so creditably representing Central. i946 saw the inaugural ofa new interscholastic sport to the calendar. Through the com- bined efforts of Coach James Hogan and our principal, Mr. Springmann, inter school com- petition was begun in Volleyball. Developing his squad rapidly from a set of boys who were new to the game, Mr. Hogan finished the reason with an outfit of talented spikers. In reg- ular league competition they scored 25 victories and lost only two games fora most enviable record. ln the Sectional playoffs Central was handicapped by the loss of Ernie Wheeloch and Joe Mica to the Armed Forces and as a result dropped two games to North and were eliminated from the tourney. The fine spirit and enthusiasm ofthe boys and their splendid record in competition augurs well for this newest of Central's sports.

Reader friendship and confidence are a newspaper's most valued assets. Other old friends we look for daily include Dick Tracy, Moon Mullins, Skeezix, Harold Teen, Winnie Winkle, Andy and Min Gump, Orphan Annie, Joe Palooka, Mickey Finn, Li'l Abner. They have been friends as long as any of us can remember, seem almost like members of the family. We follow their fortunes with interest every day. A newer friend is Bob Hope. We like him because he amuses us. For chit-chat, there's Dorothy Kilgallon. Friends like David Lawrence and Drew Pearson keep us informed. Editorial writers, reporters, correspondents, sports commentators are friends when they are guided by the principle of neighborliness and fairness. Even folks who write letters to the editor are friends of friends of ours.
