The laurel leaf on the cover of this “Panorama ” reminds us that without peace the world is in danger of destruction. Yet, this end is not inevitable, and it is the duty of the 1952 graduates to help make the world secure for posterity. Looking back on three wonderful years at Central, each graduate will remember different experiences. Some will remember the under¬ standing and knowledge gained from teachers and classes, or the activities and teamwork with many other students. Others will cherish the memories of their participation in athletics in which attitudes of sportsmanship were developed, and in which their bodies, and minds profited from the training. Commencement follows next, but this does not mean the end of learning. Rather, Commencement is the beginning, for it is merely a stepping stone to other phases of learning. Some will go on to higher institutions while others will cease their formal education, but will learn from actual experience. The world depends on today ' s graduates. They must use the wisdom gained from high school experiences to help iron out world problems. Each graduate must never forget his own personal responsibility for making the world a place that is better because he has lived in it. Page Three ADMINISTRATION Edward T. Springmann, Principal Martin A. Heifer, Superintendent Central High students are fortunate in having for gui dance and advice such outstanding people as Mr. Martin Heifer, superintendent of schools; Mr. Edward Springmann, principal; Mr. Maxwell Space, Senior Boys ' and Girls ' Counselor; Miss Marion Taylor, Sopho¬ more and Junior Girls ' Counselor, and Mr. Richard Schuster, Sophomore and Junior Boys ' Counselor. With such able leadership as this students can plan for col¬ lege or career and iron out any problems which may arise. As a result they are able to get the most out of their school life.

In Central ' s Eng lish classes the student is given many opportuni¬ ties to develop his talents. His speaking ability can be improved and perfected by entering speaking contests or by speaking before his class. His writing talent may be discovered and aided by the com¬ positions and short stories which are often part of the regular assign¬ ment. The constructive criticism of the teachers also helps the stu¬ dents to improve. A pupil can learn to enjoy literature by reading and understand¬ ing the required books, plays and poems by famous and outstanding authors. Another thing which helps a student to enjoy books is our school library. Its wide selection of books on various subjects and its excellent reference material are very valuable to every pupil. The students of Central are fortunate to have such a well-equipped library and fine English Department. Page Eight Seated: Miss Josephine Rosenberg, Miss Edna Brown. Standing: Miss Catherine Keenan, Mrs. Edna Hinds. LANGUAGES Knowledge and understanding of foreign languages are important unifying factors in the world today. Cen¬ tral ' s modern language department, directed by Miss Loretta Murphy, tries to give the student just such a knowl¬ edge and understanding. Of course, any student who has taken the courses offered in Latin has prepared himself for any modern language he might wish to study. Those available at Central are French and Spanish. These courses also try to acquaint the pupils with the customs and backgrounds of the countries where the languages are spoken. Although he may not realize it today, in the near future the student will be grateful for the back¬ ground his study of foreign languages has given him. Mrs. Hinds points out a well known spot in France to Rosemary Russell corrects her Spanish assignment Joyce Davis. according to Miss Edna Brown’s directions. Page Nine Seated: Mrs. Blanche Beers, Mrs. Edith Calvert. Standing: Mr. William Hogan, Mr. John Gable. MATH Mathematics is a subject which almost every student must study, either voluntarily or involuntarily, during his high school years. This field offers a variety of courses including geometry, intermediate algebra, advanced alge¬ bra, trigonometry and solid geometry. Mrs. Blanche Beers is the head of the department. Math helps the student figure and reason for himself, an ability which is a great asset throughout his entire life. Although some students think it is unnecessary to take a math course, most colleges reguire it, and certainly a college education is a won¬ derful thing to have. SCIENCE Science is a branch of study con¬ cerned with observation and classifica¬ tion of facts. In Central there are two science courses offered, chemistry and physics. Chemistry concerns the study of the composition of substances, and of the transformations which they un¬ dergo. This course seems to be easier after the student has had physics. Physics pertains to the phenomena of inanimate matter involving no changes in chemical composition, more specifi¬ cally the science of matter and motion. A science major may be obtained if the student has had another year of science in junior high school. Mr. Roehm demonstrates an essential experiment. Page Eleven Mr. John Gable explains how to find the volume of a cube to Burke Webb. Ted Smith and Joann Dudock try to obtain the balance necessary for their physics experiment. Tony Capozzi and Terry Acquiviva study a proposition together. Page Twelve - Seated: Miss Nellie Glod, Miss Elizabeth Prior, Miss Louise Wulff. Standing: Miss Margaret Brown, Mr. James Hogan, Mrs. Lettie Burlew. Two conscientious students look at the globe as Miss Margaret Brown points out a trouble spot in the world. A knowledge of world affairs, past and present, helps to make one a well rounded and interesting person. In Cen¬ tral ' s history classes, the student is given a chance to gain a wider perspec¬ tive of historical events by studying ancient, medieval and modern history. The globes and maps aid the pupils in understanding the geographical char¬ acteristics and the location of the differ¬ ent countries. The courses in Commu¬ nism, Democracy and Socialism help them to realize how other peoples think. All this is part of the extensive training which makes the student of today the alert and active citizen of tomorrow. HISTORY The new co-ed home economics class is a true suc¬ cess at Central. HOME ECONOMICS ART The art class happily receives instructions from Miss Grace Holcomb, art teacher. Homemaking, which is one of the most useful and practical subjects taught in high schools today, is elected by many pupils regardless of what their selected course may be. Both boys and girls alike benefit from these classes where such interesting topics as child care, cooking, interior decorating, sewing and etiguette are off ered. This year, in contrast to other years when separate classes were held for boys and girls, a co-ed” class has been organized. The homemaking depart¬ ment is definitely a valuable part of Cen¬ tral ' s training program. Art classes at Central are made up partly of students who wish to make art their career, and of others who are merely interested in it as a hobby. In either case, they are taught the basic principles of drawing and design by Miss Grace Hol¬ comb, the Art Department instructor. The art classes supply the posters and decora¬ tions for all productions held at Central, and they adorn the art room with portraits of their classmates. Art contest entries from Central usually win a great many Scholastic Art Awards. Page Thirteen COMMERCIAL Seated: Miss Helen Murphy, Miss Caroline Wadsworth, Miss Mary Miller, Miss Katherine Miller, Miss Leda Wickham. Standing: Mrs. Elsie Coffman, Mr. John Guley, Miss Alice Lowry, Mr. Benjamin Gold, Miss Mary Cahill, Mrs. Frances Bochnak. The commercial course supervised by Miss Katherine Miller offers an excep¬ tional chance for all girls who are planning a career in business. Further¬ more, this course .may also be of use to students who are planning for college in the near future. Such interesting subjects are offered as bookkeeping, typing, shorthand, busi¬ ness law, business arithmetic, and busi¬ ness machines. These subjects are taught thoroughly and efficiently to prepare students for a future life in busi¬ ness. As a result many graduates seek permanent jobs, and a great number of them receive excellent ones right at the start. The commercial teachers are cer¬ tainly doing a fine job in preparing the students for their careers. Office Practice Class at work.

Standing: Mr. Lee Kent, Mr. Frank Collen, Mr. Louis Hill, Mr. Fred Barrett. There are many students at Central who pursue interests in the industrial classes. In this course a variety of helpful subjects are offered including machines, metal, auto, print work and mechanical drawing. Here the students learn many essentials about the trade which some of them will no doubt enter after graduation. They also learn the necessary facts about the operation and the repairing of the machines. In the auto classes, the boys are being pre¬ pared to become the mechanics of to¬ morrow. This role has great impor¬ tance in our atomic age. All industrial classes are held on the ground floor which serves as a training field. Mrs. Winchell gives a manicure to one of her Beauty Culture pupils. Page Fifteen HEALTH Miss Anna Bloom points out some nourishing foods to Barbara Standfast. AVIATION Aviation, an interesting course taught by Mr. Emerson Bate¬ man, is available to all Central students. The course acguaints students with fundamental in¬ formation necessary for every air minded person. Pupils learn not only these fundamentals of flying, but also the answers to guestions concerning the air and weather. At Central there is adequate up-to-date equip¬ ment including a Link Trainer. After taking this course, if any students desire to continue in this field, there are many open¬ ings available. The Health course offered at Central is required of all stu¬ dents and is studied for one term. This course is taught by Miss Anna Bloom and Mr. Arthur Sharpsteen. Health is a subject which is very important to students because by studying it they learn the psychological and physical functions of mind and body. This class helps the student to form better health habits, which are necessary for a happy, normal life. Mr. Emerson Bateman, aviation instructor, explains the mechanism of the propeller. DRIVING If anyone wishes to learn how to drive, Central ' s driving class is the course for him. The class, under the direction of Mr. Har¬ ris, meets four times a week: two periods for inside instruc¬ tion and two periods for actual driving. When the course has been finished, the student not only knows how to stop and start a car, but also has the knowledge of the actual auto parts, traffic signals, traffic laws and violations and car in¬ Page Sixteen Mr. Andrew Harris teaches two women drivers how to change a flat. surance. CAFETERIA During that important time between 11:40 and 1:10 when students don ' t wish to trudge home for lunch, they merely ; have to step into the cafeteria I and select a lunch which ap¬ peals to them. The prices are reasonable and no matter what choice one makes the food is always good. Many thanks for this lunch program should go to our fine cafeteria staff.

They keep the bells ringing, the inkwells filled and the floors swept. They also have the task of cleaning out the desks which careless and hurried students have crammed full of used paper. The staff of custodians play a very important part in the functioning of our school. ■ ? ' ' GYM Only the boys at Central are lucky enough to have gym classes, and most of them take the best of their advantage. Mr. Art Sharpsteen and Mr. Henry Merz are gym instructors, and under their capable direction, the boys receive a workout which livens them up for the rest of their classes. Although the gym is not adeguately eguipped in respect to facilities, never¬ theless, at all times of the school day, there is usually some group present. In past years, the physical education classes have proved to be the training ground for Cen tral ' s athletes. These same boys will be seen later on the football field or basketball court or participating in many other sports. In the future, when the new gym is built, the old one will be forgotten. However, we must remember that it did serve its purpose pass-, ing well. ' ' Mr. Henry Merz, gym instructor. Mr. Arthur Sharpsteen, gym instructor.

Page Fifty-Four Page Fifty-Five GENERAL ORGANIZATION Papa Central Day Festivities sponsored by Fall G.O. The G. O. of Central meets once a week to carry on the business of the students. In the fall term the student body elected Robert Jastrab as president; Peggy Pease, vice-president; Kathleen Casey, secre¬ tary, and Dick Levene, treasurer. The G. O. con¬ tributed generously to the city drives for cancer, heart disease, the Crusade for Freedom, Community Chest and canned goods. They sponsored the annual Papa Central Dance held at the E. J. Recreation Cen¬ ter, which was attended by about one thousand people. The day before the dance and Thanksgiving football game, the annual Papa Central Day festivi¬ ties were held.

On May 8, students from seventeen South¬ ern Tier schools were sent to represent their schools in a Student Council Conference held at Central. At this Conference they discussed in panel form prob¬ lems common to all schools. This helped the students to solve some of their own school ' s problems, or at least should have proved to be of some use. During May the G. O. sponsored a dance. Mr. John Gable is the faculty advisor of this organization. Row 1: Romayne Parsons, Joan Manouse, Kathleen Casey, Chuck Rol¬ les, Roberta Lord, Olga Libak, Kay McDonough.

As a home run is the aim of every base¬ ball player, so is Honor Society the aim of the students at Central, sophomores, juniors and seniors alike. Each term this organization selects the Centralites” who have accomplished the most in the fields of fine arts, scholarship, school service and athletics. Eight seniors are selected from each of these groups. To be eligible for Honor Society, a student must have two awards in one field or one award in each of three separate fields. A list containing the names of those students who have these qualifications is compiled by five members of Honor So¬ ciety, the three counselors and Mr. Spring- mann. The names are then voted on by the members and those most worthy are taken in. The gold key, a symbol of ex- The proud parents and members at Spring Honor Society Reception.

PANORAMA ANNUAL The first thing that every student looks for in the Pan Annual is his own picture. After he has been satisfied in finding it, he then reviews the rest of the book, page by page. However, at this time, he sel¬ dom realizes the amount of work behind such a pub¬ lication. The headguarters for all Pan Annual activities are in homeroom 325. Here one will find the picture editor coaxing the photographers to take the neces¬ sary pictures, the Business Manager briefing the staff on finances, the write-up editor feverishly figuring the number of picas for each article, and the art staff members working on layouts. Over the entire busy scene consisting of about twenty staff members, the Editor checks on everyone, listens to excuses, plans meetings and wonders if the project will ever get done on time. Cindy Van Der Kar and Sue Coughlin served as co-editors during the fall term, while Carolyn Kuhnle held the post during the spring. Miss Grace Holcomb is the faculty advisor.

PAN NEWSPAPER The Pan Newspaper, a very special attraction at Central, is published four times each term. Editors for the fall and spring terms were Charles Lesko and Judy Earle. Miss Helen Cusick, faculty advisor, helps the students in publishing the Pan which contains all the news about sports, clubs and school. Centralites wore Pan booster tags, the sale of which helped Miss Cusick, Judy Earle, Sue Cronk and Marilyn Hester to attend the Columbia Scholastic Press Convention in New York City. At this conference Central again won a medalist rating, the highest possible award a high school newspaper may re¬ ceive. Teamwork is an essential factor for each publication of the Pan. Theresa Liska and Babette VanCott go over a copy to be typed. Jackie Maxian and Sharon McNamara publicize a forthcom¬ ing issue. Page Sixty-Six LOOK AT THE BIRDIE!

KEY CLUB The Key Club of Central is a new service organization under the advisorship of Mr. Donald Roehm. This club is part of an Inter¬ national Organization with chapters in the rest of the United States and Canada. Mem¬ bership is limited to boys with high scho¬ lastic averages. The meetings are conducted by the follow¬ ing officers: Harry Preuss, president; Richard Ulmer, vice-president; Richard Calabrisi, sec¬ retary, and Herbert Cohen, treasurer. At the present time the club ' s main func¬ tion is helping the faculty operate and main¬ tain the motion picture equipme nt. It is very probable that in the future Key Club will become one of the outstanding organizations at Central.

The members have been learning and practicing new methods of taking better pictures. Having fixed up their own dark room in 323, the club mem¬ bers are able to develop and print their pictures. In this way the boys are gaining valuable experience and training for fu¬ ture years. Many of the fine pictures in the Pan Newspaper and Pan Annual have been taken by the club members.

It seems, however, that the best part of this bargain is the experience gained from each of the various assignments. All Student Staffers must possess a report card and scholastic records that show at least a C aver¬ age. This gualification limits the members to those who can participate without interfering with their homework. However, they must have many other talents—a friendly smile at the hostess desk, an eye for errors while correcting papers, strong arms to carry English or library books, an inclination toward math in Mrs. Coffman ' s office, and filing ability in the counselors ' offices. After performing these various services for one year, Student Staff members are eligible for one of those highly valued awards. Congratulations to Student Staff and its advisor, Mr. Space, for the guality and guantity of their serv¬ ices during the past year. Margaret Solomon gives directions at her post at the hostess desk.

They also conducted the annual Junior Red Cross Drive in the school. Hard work and active participation in the club are highly rewarded. The Senior Chapter sends as many members as possible to the National Red Cross Conventions. Still others are sent to training centers in northeastern United States. The members who represent this Chapter use the training centers and conventions as a source of ideas to put into practice here at Central. Officers and members collaborate at a regular Red Cross meeting. Delegates from every homeroom make up our Junior Red Cross Council which is a chapter of the National Red Cross Association. The newly elected officers who will lead this service organization dur¬ ing the spring term are Mary Brezny, president; Delores Bloom, vice-president; Lorraine Borris, secre¬ tary, and Stuart Suskind, treasurer. Besides working in the school organization, the members often go to the Senior Red Cross Headquarters to volunteer their much-needed time. The club meets twice a month to discuss business or contribute their services to various projects.

LIT CLUB Lit Club, an organization which is open only to girls, meets every other Tuesday for business and on the remaining Tuesdays for a special program presented by members or outsiders. The purpose of this club is to further the girls ' knowledge of art, literature and music. Last fall Miss Grace Holcomb spoke about her cross-country tour, and the Rev. Percy Rex gave a discussion concerning Russian literature. In the spring the members sponsored a poetry contest offering a prize of five dollars. At the end of each term, the members give a din¬ ner for the officers and outgoing members. Initiation of new members is always a highlight of the term. Joyce Kozak and Sharon McNamara held the office of president during the fall and spring terms respec¬ tively. Barbara Standfast and Terry Acqui- viva peddle their wares at Lit Club Bake Sale.

The officers for this year were: President, Lorraine Parchinski; vice-president, Leona Hall; secretaries, Carole Sedor and Alfreda Bennett; treasurer, Josephine Micallizi; sergeant-at-arms, Jean Jones. The purposes of the Y-Teens are to serve the community, to grow in friendship with others, and to promote social activities. The principle activi¬ ties included sending clothes to Korea, attending the area conference at Rochester, bake sales, slumber party and the annual spring and fall dances. HI-Y Central ' s Hi-Y is one ot many high school service clubs co-sponsored by high schools and Y.M.C.A. ' s throughout the U. S. For many years the advisor of Central ' s club has been Mr. Kavanagh. Under Presi¬ dent Tom Hasenpflug, Hi-Y developed two legisla¬ tive bills for state government through the Youth and Government assembly. Members of Hi-Y are always prominent in Honor Society, Debate Club, Dramatics Club and Papa Central Day activities.

It is with a feeling of pleasure and pride we watch and listen to our blue and white clad classmates participating in our community ' s numerous parades but, by far, their biggest work¬ out comes during the football season. The band serves to pep up our songs and cheers, although we usually have plenty of pep anyway. Pep assemblies also give the students an opportunity to hear our fine band. It ' s not only necessary for the members of the band to be able musicians, they must also be fine marchers. Between the halves at the football games they march in many different formations, while the twirlers show off their ability. Besides this, we all enjoy parading behind the band up Court Street after a big victory. A newly-instituted spring concert at Central includes band numbers. There ' s hardly a person in school who doesn ' t like our band ' s music, no matter what his musical tastes are. Between the halves, the band begins marching exercises.

Everyone will agree that the orchestra, conducted by Mr. Alphonse Nowak, is one of the most indis¬ pensable organizations at Central today. It lends its able assistance to Honor graduate assemblies and to graduation exercises. Also, what play would be com¬ plete without the orchestra setting the mood for it with suitable music? This is the first time in many years that the orchestra has had over forty members. They have also sent five people to the state contest held at Vestal. On May 2nd the orchestra presented its second an¬ nual Eve of Music which started last year. The con¬ cert was opened with the Coumanian Fantasy fol¬ lowed by The Syncopated Clock, Little Brown Jug, Bacchanale, and The Surrey With the Fringe on Top. A double violin trio was also featured. Keep up the good music, orchestra! We love it! Page Seventy-Five i; 7 Part of the choir discusses a new arrangement of a song with Mr. Clune. The choir, under the direction of Mr. Thomas Clune, has presented selections for us at Honor Society and Honor Graduates assemblies and at Commencement. The members sang in the halls during the Christmas season, thus increasing the true spirit of that season. In the spring, the choir worked together with the band and orchestra to present the annual CHOIR festival of music for the enjoyment- of the public. The choir has performed many times outside of Central both in our own community and at other Southern Tier schools. These are but a few examples of how the choir has performed for the students and their friends. This organization is one which is of great value to Central.

A. 13 During this game the outstanding disputed play of the season occurred when Elmira had a 13-0 lead in the fourth period. Free Academy was again in scoring position when the bouncing or non-bouncing happened. Joe Capozzi threw a pass to Willie Herman, but the ball richocheted off his fingers into those of Mike Ganisin who ran four yards for a touchdown. Although both Elmira and the referees had different opinions concerning the play, the Central machine was now set into mo¬ tion. In the remaining minutes, John Drotor scored the last touchdown of the game, and Ted Scarinzi kicked the point which ended the game in tie of 13-13. CENTRAL 6 — NORWICH 0 Fortunately, Central ' s team failed to notice the odds against them as they played a top rated Nor¬ wich team evenly for three periods. Then a pair of backs, Frank De Benedetto and Ted Scarinzi, covered yardage to give Central a 6-0 advantage. After a fifteen-yard penalty, the ball was on the one yard line and De Benedetto crashed over on the next play. The Yellow Jackets, on the strength of a 32-yard run back of a punt, later advanced the ball to the Central 16-yard line, but a fumble ruined their chances. Joe Rexford re¬ covered the ball on the 23rd and ended the game. CENTRAL 6 — ELMIRA S. S. 0 A touchdown dash by Jim McCloe half the length of the field on the fourth play of the game gave Central a 6-0 verdict over Elmira Southside and also gave the Green Hornets their fourth straight setback. Central, heavily favored, started fast on the fourth play from scrimmage as McCloe broke through the left side of the Hornet ' s line and ran 50 yards to score. The attempt for the point after touchdown was too wide, but that was the ball game, as far as the 1,200 fans were con¬ cerned. Late in the fourth period, the Hornets drove deep into Central ' s territory only to have each drive fail. Page Seventy-Eight CENTRAL 0 — NORTH 7 North High ' s offense glittered for one period and its defense for four as it made Central their fifth straight victim. Central, though unbeaten in three previous starts, failed to move the ball across midfield until the final minute when it spurted to North ' s 40-yard line. Co-Captain John Mataleska was in a class by himself for Central, hoarding half the teams tackles. Joe Criscitello of North scored the only touchdown of the game in the first guarter. With little more than two minutes to go, Jerry Hickey completed two passes for his receivers, but they only reached North ' s 47-yard line, resulting in a non score game for Central. CENTRAL 6 — JOHNSON CITY 15 The Johnson City Wildcats ended their South¬ ern Tier Conference schedule in second place by beating Central 15-6. This game marked the Cat ' s seventh straight win over the Bulldogs and also knocked Central out of a chance for a runner-up spot in the conference. J. C. scored touchdowns on two sustained drives plus a safety before the Bull¬ dogs came roaring back via a passing attack. Two long passes and twenty-one yards assessed in penalties against J. C. were the big factors in Cen¬ tral ' s scoring drive. Dick Messodonna scored the T.D. from a yard and a half out. J. C. piled up 13 points in the second half and finally subdued the Bulldogs. CENTRAL 12 — ITHACA 7 Central ' s much spirited team defeated the Ithacans by a respectable score. Blocked within its own 20-yard most of the third period. Central seemed beaten as Ithaca scored in the final period. This sudden scoring seemed to ignite the Bulldogs as it took only nine plays with its new backfield men to make up for lost time and to race ahead with a 12-7 score. In the last two minutes of play, Ithaca had reached Central ' s 11-yard line and was threaten¬ ing to score when Charlie Saz, John Mataleska and Joe Rexford ganged up on the guarterback for an eight-yard loss. As a result of this important play, Ithaca had to bear the burden of its first Triple Cities defeat. CENTRAL 0 — UNION ENDICOTT 12 Thanksgiving Day saw the Black and Orange halt Central ' s ground game by the score of 12-0. It was the thirty-eighth meeting between the two teams and over 5,000 fans witnessed the contest. U. E. scored the second time it got the ball and again late in the fourth period. Central ' s farthest advance in the first half was to the U. E. 49-yard line when Co-captain Dick Kovac recovered a fumble. Although the Torna¬ does ' offense started to click for a time in the third period, it was halted by Central ' s line. Thus, the Bulldogs ended the season in fifth place with a 2-3-1 conference record. Watch out, Ref! That’s all, brother! Page Seventy-Nine Page Eighty J. V. FOOTBALL Row 2: Art Sharpsteen, G. Joh, R.

The Central High Junior Varsity team this year had a more successful season than did its big brothers. As they lost only three games out of eight, they looked very impressive against the stron g Johnson City team whom they de¬ feated both times. The team played each Triple Cities school twice with a home and home schedule with each of the four schools. The team was run under the same system this year as it used last year. Players who re¬ ceived little or no chance to participate in var¬ sity games made up the Junior Varsity sguad. This system was carried over from last season because it gave more boys who liked football a chance to play the game. This system is valu¬ able to the players and the coach as it gives the player the much needed experience for var¬ sity game competition and gives the coach a general idea on what he will have for the fol¬ lowing year. Some of the players that made up the Junior Varsity sguad are Frank Russo, Harri¬ son Day, Jack McCrossen, Gale Joh, Jim Dorey, Fred Casey and Richard Nicholas. Coach Deyo is hoping for a team next year that will surpass the splendid record this Junior Varsity team has left to Central High School. Row 1: Manager, J. Evagelatos, R. Johnston, F. Russo, A.

PEP CLUB MASCOTEERS The success of our basketball and football teams this year was partially attributed to the Pep, Club of Central. The club members are easily recognized at all school functions by their blue and white beanies and streamers. Pep Club unites in one solid block of blue and white on the football stands to assist the cheer¬ leaders by arousing the spirit of the student body. Central ' s Southern Tier Basketball Cham¬ pionship this year owes much to the loyal sup¬ port of this club. At all Pep Assemblies the club has a special reserved section where they give encourage¬ ment and school spirit to the members of the entire team. One thing certainly, if the Pep Club continues its excellent work in arousing school spirit, our teams will surely continue to be suc¬ cessful. Missy Warren, Karol Oeftering, Angie Liciandrello. Page Eighty-Four ■BKHmSSbwh BEA UP Preparing the bell for “Turkey Day”. The Mascoteers and Cheerleaders add a lot of pep, noise and color to every football game. The Mascoteers were selected by the G. O. through elimination voting. Those chosen were Missy Warren, Karol Oeftering and Angie Lician- drello. ' ' Dukie, ' ' the English bulldog in his sec¬ ond year as mascot, is owned by Mr. and Mrs. Carl Mielke. Dukie and the girls got along famously this season, he just pulled them wherever he wanted to go! The Cheerleaders ' job doesn ' t end with the football season. They go on and encourage the basketball team to win. The Cheerleaders this year were Kay Casey, Jennie Moses, Connie Tourjee, Frannie Gentile, Gerry McGovern, Joyce Berger and Madeline Del Villano. Peggy Pease, Maxine Vanek and Doni Toncola grad¬ uated in January. The Cheerleaders brought out the spirit of Central ' s students in the roar¬ ing pep assemblies. Because of this, more stu¬ dents turned out to support our football and basketball teams, and conseguently both had good seasons. These girls have given a lot of their time and energy without any thought of reward. Page Eighty-Five CHEERLEADERS Row 1: Kay Casey, Madeline DelVillano, Joyce Berger. Row 2: Connie Tourjee,.

Our team was the biggest drawing card in the Triple Cities for ardent sport fans. Newspapers labeled Central ' s team as the fabulous five and tremendous trio. But, the man who should get many of these honors is Art Sharpsteen. He has worked with these boys for three years and has turned five players into an excellent, smoothly running team. This accomplishment is the reason why everyone enjoys watching Central play. Bob Jastrab and Chuck Rolles acted as co¬ captains for Central. Playing at guard, high scorer for Central and the Southern Tier with an average of 24 points per game was Chuck Rolles who was best known for his one handed jump shot. Mike Dranichak played guard and helped the team along with his timely assists. Under the backboards were three men whom the papers called the tremendous trio. Bob Jastrab played at center and was best known for his potent hook shot. Bill Gavula played forward and could shoot anytime, anywhere with a high degree of ac¬ curacy. Jim Dubil, forward, was best known for his left handed shot. One thing the tremendous trio had in common was their ability off the back- boards. Walt Wallace added a great deal of strength towards Central ' s bid for the champion¬ ship. However, graduation broke up this team leaving only Chuck Rolles, Mike Dranichak and a lot of speculation. The fabulous five had an eleven-game win¬ ning streak, but it was still possible for J. C. or U. E. to win the championship from Central. Art Sharpsteen used Charlie Sax, Ken Pichette, Ronnie Capalaces, Mike Ganisin, Joe Welch, Ed Parks, Mike Dranichak, Dick Day, Tom Skasko, Dave Reynolds and Chuck Rolles to make up the team after the January graduation. This team won the Southern Tier High School Championship. Central was defeated in the sectionals by a strong U. E. team, and there was much speculation whether even Central ' s fabulous five could beat the strong U. E. team. The fabulous five also en¬ tered the Y.M.C.A. Senior Tournament. They played and beat U. E. ' s team and also won the tournament. Chuck Rolles pushed 63 points through the hoop in one game, which was a record-breaking accomplishment. Four of Central ' s team members were chosen for the Broome County All Stars. They were Chuck Rolles, Bob Jastrab, Jim Dubil and Bill Gavula. Next season Central has a solid nucleus to work from toward producing another championship team. 1 Page Eighty-Six Central 77_Vestal 34 Central 61_U. E. 51 Central 32_Elmira F. A. 46 Central 35_J.

V. ball club hit a slump, Central ended up in a tie for third place. The coach of the J. V. team is Mr. Guley, he has done a fine job in keeping a good team. Central ' s J. V. team would have been a much stronger club, but the graduation of the tre¬ mendous trio (Bob Jastrab, Bill Gavula and Jim Dubil) left a big hole in Central ' s varsity lineup. The players that filled these positions came from the J. V. club. A big man under the boards for the J. V. club was Seymour Schad, he took a greater share of the boards and tossed in needed points with his potent hook shot. Tony Van Atta offered some nice lefthanded shots, his lefthanded push shot scored the most. Mike Burns displayed a nice set shot this season. Jim O ' Brien with his right- handed push shot to our advantage this year. Ed Parke displayed an easy going style which is hard to stop, although he is also very good on defense. Ed Rogers, Dick Zeboris, Harrison Day and Dick Peworchik all had a fine season this year. Central will be seeing a lot more of these players next season. The Boardinghouse Reach.

BOWLING The Central Bowling team met with some top competition in the Triple Cities this year. The league race was close the entire year with the Bulldog keg- lers ending up in a three-way tie with J. C. and U. E. To determine the Tri-Cities Championship, a playoff match was held at the Laurel Bowlodrome. The Cen¬ tral boys were able to win this all-important game. In the Sectional IV meet, the Bulldogs missed placing first by a slight margin and ended up in second place. The Central mermen have had another success¬ ful season with special laurels going to Dick Ball, Murray Heifer and Bob Auchinachie, all of whom set new swimming records. Because of the passage of the P. G. ruling, the team was able to compete against some of the top Pennsylvanian schools. The sguad ended the season with a total of six wins and c C u « c £k VOLLEYBALL Row 1: Rudy Shere, Richard Greb- leck, Coach Lalley, Ronald Mer- rac. Row 2: Michael Walsh. Row 3: Howey Katz, Richard Kovac, David Goldstein, James Wray. three losses, and second place in a triangular meet. The only disappointment was the omission of a Sec¬ tional IV swimming meet as Central was the only team to have a swim sguad in the section. This year the Central Volleyball team had a vic¬ torious season, winning a total of 30 games and losing eight. In the competition between the schools of the Triple Cities, the team won 22 games while dropping only five. When the regular season was over. Central and U. E. were in a first place tie and an extra match had to be played. After winning the match, the Bulldogs entered the Section IV meets held on March 29. The sguad easily defeated Vestal and Norwich and once again faced U. E., this time for the sectional crown. The match proved to be a close and hard-fought game, but Central emerged as the Sectional Champion.

This year ' s baseball outlook has been dimmed by the loss of practically all of last year ' s team. With only four members of the 1951 team return¬ ing, Coach Ben Gold has to start from scratch in order to build another Southern Tier Champion¬ ship squad. Spring training started in the middle of March in the gym and at Recreation Park. Many new prospects came around for the pitching and bat¬ tery practice, and several showed a great deal of talent. From the pitching staff, Central ' s main loss has been George McGlynn and Tony Ruffo, both of whom graduated last June. George made an outstanding record with the ' 51 squad, including two no-hitters against U. E. and Vestal. On this year ' s pitching crew are veterans Ernie Crerar and Dick Niggli. Also among the more promising newcomers is David Goldstein. Along with the loss of third baseman, Walt Gaffney, and outfielder, Joe Galli, has been the unexpected loss of the heavy hitters, Jim Dubil and Bob Jastrab, because of the new post-graduate ruling. This year Tom Giblin and Mike Dranichak appear to be the nucleus of the battery group. Although the team is inexperienced, both Coach Gold and the players are looking forward to a successful season. They hope to match last year ' s 10-2 record and to avenge the team ' s two losses at the hands of North High. It’s going to be a home run.

Spring training started in the beginning of April and was held in both the gym and at MacArthur Field. Among the familiar faces at these practices was Walt Mc¬ Carthy, one of the team ' s best hurdlers. Also jumping the hurdles was Mel Huggler and a newcomer, Mort Gilinski. For the dashes Coach Merz had Bill Merrall and John Kocak. The shot putt and discus men included Joe Rexford and Dick Kovac. Another newcomer to the team was Bob Ridgley, who for¬ merly ran the guarter-mile at Schenectady. The first meet was scheduled for April 30 with Vestal. After this meet, the team entered duo-meets with each of the Triple Cities ' schools and Ithaca. Also, Central competed in two large meets at Utica and Elmira. The all-important Tri-Cities meet was held on May 24. The boys that placed in this meet went to Cornell and finally to the all-state meet held at West Point in June. A new development for the team was the possi¬ bility of a night meet under lights for the first time in the Southern Tier. Both Coach Merz and the mem¬ bers of the sguad hoped to have a better season than last year, and many of the boys looked forward to entering the West Point meet. Looking at the world upside down. Getting ready, getting set ---. Page Ninety-Five GOLF TENNIS The golf team made a good start this year, with three of last year ' s lettermen returning. Prac¬ tice was held at MacArthur Field and then, after Easter vacation, at Ely Park. Eleven candidates were working out under Coach Art Sharpsteen and, in the latter part of April, a week of elimina¬ tion was held to determine the five-man regular team. The team met Elmira Heights, Johnson City, Union-Endicott and Ithaca. In all, seven games were scheduled. After last June ' s graduation. Central ' s tennis team had only one returning letterman, Bill Keane. The tennis team was chosen from among Bill Keane, Jack McCormick, Joe Welsh, Bill King, Bill Alt- mann, Dave Payne, Tom Hasenflug, Chuck Rolles and Tim O ' Neil. From these players Mr. Guley, coach, made up a team of five men who played inter-school matches. The team practiced daily at Recreation Park in order to be well prepared for each match.

Since Central does not have a girls ' gym, a pro¬ gram has been adopted at West Junior for the ath¬ letic-minded girls. Under the direction of Miss Mar¬ garet Frear and Lieutenant Francis Cams, the girls are able to participate in basketball, bowling and swimming. The basketball season started in November and ended in March with Evelyn Heiyen ' s team finishing in first place. Each of the eight teams was made up of from eight to ten girls. On Thursday nights a group of girls met in the West Junior pool for an evening of enjoyment and instruction. This year ten were able to pass the senior life-saving course. The bowling teams played each Monday at the Laurel Bowlodrome. The girls have joined the Na¬ tional Junior Bowling Congress and have elected Maxine Vanek as their president.
