SENIOR LETTER Dear Frank: As we come closer to the end of our high school career, we ought to stop for a few minutes to recall some of the pleasures we have had as Centralites. As I sat studying listlessly in 105 fMiss Fall thought I had a case of spring feverj , Irecalled that memorable day in September 'of 1944, when we entered into the majestic abode of Central. As I wandered bewildered through the halls I could hear the upperclassf men saying to each otfher, Yipe, what young squirts! Well, if these same persons could see us today, they would realize that we're older now. After struggling valiantly through geometry, Shakespeare, Latin, physics, and the many other enjoyable pastimes of the sophomore and junior years, we finally reached the summit of our high school career, our senior year. Remember the assemblies we had, or did you fall asleep also. I'll never forget that community singing we had under the leadership of George Campbell. The student body sang so well that I understand that Mr. Bono wanted to sign up the entire group and go into competition with Fred Waring. just imagine Mr. Ernest Bono and his Thousand Centralites. You know things like that could put radio back fifty years. We also had some swell speakers at our assemblies. Remember Mr. Cameron Beck. Well, he must have been a mind reader. I was as hungry as a horse that morning, no ref marks please, and Mr. Beck must have realized t'his since he threw me a box of crackers before he finished his speech. Now that I come to think about it, I wonder how he found out that I liked Uneeda biscuits. I ' The Blossom Dance was certainly quite the affair. Remember how it was adver' tised? On all the blackboards they wrote: Daisies won't tell, but your senior represen' tative will. I understand that's what made Nora Prentiss keep quiet. Well, there goes the buzzer, and I'd better be off to first period. Only a few more days, and we'll be receiving our sheepskins, and our high school life will come to a close. Now let me see, what's the date of the War of 1812? Your pal forever, EARN EST P. S. I understand we're having mutton for our Senior Banquet. I 11 I
