Center High School - Mirror Yearbook (Center, MO)

Text from Pages 1 - 110 of the 1946 volume:

DEDICATION DEDICATION We the faculty and students, do hereby de- dicate the mirror of 1946 to the Gold Star Boys of Center High, who so patriotically gave their lives that this world might be a better place in which to live. In so making this dedication, our hearts ex- tend out to the classmates, parents, relatives, and the many friends a condoling touch of sincere sympathy. Well do we realize that these dear boys are here to mingle with us no more, but our hearts are made light to know that they died a noble and honorable death that the stars and stripes shall wave over the land of the free, and that their soul now rests in the confecting arms of God. We now dedicate our annual of 1946 to the Gold Star Boys of Center High School and that their honorable deeds shall be lasting memories. DELAPORTE HOWALD EDWIN HICKERSON PREFACE Our Mirror is not just what we had planned it to be. Because of lack of films earlier in the year we could not take pictures and now-that we can get films, school is closing. We do feel we've had a successful school year and we are proud of our accomplishments. Through the co-operation of Faculty, Student Body, Board of Directors and the Public at large we've been able to acquire for the school this year: A16MM Sound Projector and a Turntable, a Memograph, Large Set of Maps and Globe on Stand— Also an Airplane from the Surplus War Commodities. It is our earnest desire that each succeeding year’s achievements will be even greater.

Senior Class ----I53B----- SENIOR PROPHECY As Madam Zourgo-Noni looks into her crystal ball she sighs -and passes her hand over it.There is silence in the room she begins her prophecy. Donna Sommerfeld is happily doing her job as housewife after trying a career as commercial designer and singer.She is kept quite busy taking care of her twins. Carl Krigbaum is a prosperous farmer south of Center.He is living quite happily with his sweet wife, and he is kept busy singing lullabies to that new bundle from Heaven.His wife’s delicious cooking has added quite a bit of height since high school days. Jaye Holcomb has risen from his position as grocery boy to the manager of a store in Hannibal.His is celebrating his fifth wedding anniversary.Terry and Mary like to help him in the store, especially when cleaning out the candy counter. Lorene Fulkerson has been the efficient private secretary for the head of a firm in New York.Now,however,she has decided that she has had enough of single life.She has her vine-covered cottage in Florida already picked out. Bill Cornelius,after attending college in Chicago,has signed a contract to go to New York to sing over the radio.He hasn’t found anyone who appreciates music enough to make him a suitable wife. Frances Baker attended Chillicothe College where she studied to be a nurse.She is one of the best nurses in a large hospital in Washington.Lately,though, she decided the “little something’ she needs in her life is love. Don Campbell is now teaching science in St.Louis, and his wife is well versed in the science of cooldng.He is always in a hurry for school to be dismissed so that he can be at home with his family. Junior Lieurance is a sea wolf,a typical sailor with a girl in every port.He joined the navy to see the world(andthe girls). He makes a handsome sailor in his bell-bottom trousers and coat of navy blue. .wnmooM vitv i ot yilUds Uadiarti-xT ym :H irpr.; w .Jl9Cf§a yal j ;j r.tis; o t. . -a'3 yM JdwlvtoG nMsM oj??soiI io loads oJ leg oi ••jx);.. - � 89906 1 S! n be-r. yam «roY. hricf' saonsi'5! . .j .

H. S. thus em- barking upon the perilous sea of learning. In a few days we had a class meeting and elected our officers. Loua Mae Rigg was elected president, and John Howald vice-pres., Frances Hudson became sec-treasurer .When Frances moved away,we elected Gear la Howald to take her place.Our sponsor was Supt. C. L. Gottmann. We had two parties, both taking place at the school house. In Oct- ober we had a Halloween party and everyone came masked.Our other party was in April. School closed in May and we lost the name of Freshmen forever. In the fall we resumed our studies more or -less enthusiastically under a new superintendent,Mr. F. A. Humphrey. For our sophomore year we elected Betty Berrey as president, Jack Palmer Vice-president, Horace Berry as sec.-treasurer; John Brown as class reporter. In the - spring we chose Elaine Ledford and Jack Palmer as our Queen and King. In the fall of 1945 we started to school once again. There were 17 students to enroll in our class. We were very sorry to lose Mary'Ellen Springston, who soon dropped out to continue the year at Hannibal. We soon had a class meeting choosing Mrs, Thomas Fanning as our sponsor. Elaine Ledford was chosen president, Bobby Evans, vice- president, Betty Berrey, sec-treasurer,Gearla Howald as reporter. We had three parties this year. One at the school house and the other two at Hannibal,to the skating rink and the show.We had a nice time at each of them. Our Junior play, LET ME OUT OF HERE, was presented May 3, Eight of us were in it and the rest had a big part in getting the stage ready. The 9th of May was the night of our Junior-Senior banquet.The theme was—AERONAUTICAL—Every one present received an airplane to take home. The color scheme of orchid and white was artisticallyc arried out. It was a lot of work entertaining the seniors, but we enjoyed it, and are just sitting back thinking how nice it will be next year to have someone entertain us.After the program,we had a Prom at the school-gym. Every one proclaimed it a success and a grand time was the result. I think every one will agree with me that this has been another happy and successful year of school.

We are proud of Everett Pabst for being elected as Carnival King and Rex Cragen receiving the citizenship award. Several of our class girls and boys are on the basketball squad. Our class made a donation of $10 toward the purchase of the school plans. Everyone feels they have learned much in the last two years and are anxious for the coming year to begin.

Later on two boys, Edgar Fulkerson and Donald Benn dropped out leaving a total of 23. Early in the school term we held a class meeting and elected-our officers. Betty Horn was elected president, Betty Benn-vice-pres. Pat Brothers-secretary-treasurer,- Jean Morman-reporter, and Bobby- Rhodes-assistant reporter. Mr. Graves became our class sponsor. Our first class party was a Halloween Party on October 29. It was held at the school house and everyone had a nice time. We had another party on January 30, there were about forty present as it was invitational. For recreation Mr. Bracht and Mr. Graves showed us two picture shows. Games were played in the gym. Several Freshmen have gone out for basketball this year. They are girls: Betty Moomaw, Patsy Huse, Venita Ann Tiller, Marjorie Ledford, Pat Brothers, and Jean Morman. Boys are: Earl Barr, Bobby Rhodes, C. H. Weldy, Lloyd Meyers, Earl McClintock, Edgar Hinch, W. A. Cal- houn, and Ray Littell. All of the Freshmen helped make the school carnival a success and one of our fellow classmates, Reva Cragen, was crowned Queen of the Carnival. We feel we have done fairly well this year and hope to do better next year. YH0T3IH Vf■ MH' .'7 ? •: too h„iqoib mi 3 fclsrtoCI fcss nosi.-.'.iJ 1 • '• ,..

Nov. 16 17. I just took those signs to be per- sonal invitations so I marked those dates on my calendar “taken Friday night, I gathered my family together and started out early but when we arrived at the school building there were-so many people ahead of me that I had great difficulty in finding a parking place. Familiar carnival sounds fell upon us and pierced our ears even before wer eached the building. Students were at the doors to collect for our tickets. They cautioned us to save our stubs for the atten- dance prize to be given on Saturday night. I decided I would enjoy the carnival 100 % and do you know that by the time I had visited every feature of the carnival I had seen every student and teacher in the school busy at some booth. They must have been working for something-I have an idea we will be hearing about it soon. At the souvenir stand, I bought a big button with the inscription, “Send Me Home When I’m Full ’ and pinned it on my coat. I didn’t go down to the food stand right away though as I had some exploring to do first. The shrieks and laughter from the Crazy House drew my attention to that quarter. I was sure I’d never get out of there with all my wits. I’m wondering yet if Mrs. Norris could tell me which is worse-stumbling on tin cans or over street car tracks 11 heard someone mention the bathing beauty. I went to see her and before I left that area I had the very special privilege of viewing the latest styles from New York,' A “red bat’’, the faculty at a very tender (?) age and the post-war food chopper. I also tried my skill at the fish pond, penny pitch,pitch in boot, pin dart and Bingo. I reached the stage just in time to enter the “cake walk. ’ When the music cea sed I was standing on a lucky number for which I was awarded a delicious home- made angelfood cake. Someone asked me to guess on the number of seeds in a pumpkin. I made three guesses (all wrong.) Then I took some chances on the -turkey.I could just see that turkey on someone else’s table, Thanksgiving. (It was.) There were two lovely high school girls, Elaine Ledford and Reva Cragen,who were candidates for Carnival Queen. Two handsome boys, Bobby Evans and Ever- ett Pabst, who were candidates for Carnival King. All four were just so nice I gave them all an equal number of votes. Then I decided to go home. I went back to the carnival Saturday night. That was really the big nighti Supt. Bracht called the carnival audience to order by means of a referee whistle. He then announced that the drawings would take place for the prizes. I wasn’t at all excited. I had just had my -fortune told by Madame Zomba and she had told me that I wasn’t at all excited. I had just had my fortune told by Madame Zomba and she had told me that I wasn’t going to get a thing. -The turkey was given away, the pumpkin was cut open and the seeds counted (599). A blanket was given-away as a prize. First, second, and third attendance prizes were awarded to Mrs. Hughes and Mr. Mrs. Guilford Cowden. The last event of the evening was the crowning of the Carnival King and Queen. This was done in true carnival spirit.Janice Morawitz, fourth grade baton twirler and little Marie Bracht,flag bearer, preceded the 1 st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th grade rhythm band which let the procession for the king and queen and tHeir attendants. The entire process ion assembled on the stage around a beautifully decorated throne.Supt.Bracht crowned Everett Pabst, King of the carnival and Reva Cragen, Queen of the Carnival. -------A.

In November, we went to the Columbia Airport, and went for our first airplane ride. This was the best part of the day. We also went in the shops there, and examined the major parts of the airplanes there, and learned how they worked. Cur next trip to an airport,- was to Long’s airport, near Hannibal. This was in the latter part of April. Our two new students, Lorene Fulkerson, and Frances Baker, who both started to take aeronautics at the half of the year, took airplane rides and enjoyed them very much. At the latter part of the year, we purchased a B-T-13-A army surplus plane,for $100, plus $52.87 for expenses, totaling $152.87. We-have re- ceived many generous donations for which we are very grateful. We thank you for your contributions. We are learning how to start the plane, and what each instrument represnets. We have finished studying Meteorology, and are studying about major airports, and the rules concerning these airports. We will try to finish the C.A.R. Regulations. As a class, we-wish to thank Mr. Bracht for the splendid work he has done for the class. Through his efforts we have purchased the airplane, and many things too numerous to mention, but which we will not forget. We know much more about the course of Aeronautics than -we thought possible, and Mr. Bracht has made the course easy for us. Those who donated for the plane are: Mr; Henry Shulse Mr-. Bud Rector Mr-. Earl Huse Mr. Champ Cragen Mrs-. Thomas Fanning Mrs. Zella Norris Sophomore Class Dr. Brooks Magician show Sue Rice Hommer Howald Mr-. Graves Mr. Bracht.

Now take Wayne Allen with his ten-gallon hat.He doesn’t like the girls around here very much. And Adeline who likes to read so well that she doesn’t have time for boys. But then there’s Frances Baker. She hasn’t time for anything else but boys. Earl Barr has a girl who keeps saying, “I like you,-Crow, do you like me?” And even Glenn likes a “mush-room” now and then. Betty Benn is quite popular with the boys, also she likes class-rings. Betty Berrey is the quietest of the bunch.She says,“Band,bang,” and the wolves run. (We mean the real thing.) Lookie, here comes a girl with pin curls—oops--that’s Horace Berry. Ruth hasn’t time for boys either.She’s too busy playing basketball. That eighth grade door is like a magnet. Huh? It pulls you to it,doesn’t it Pat? Jim Brown is the MANLIEST MAN of the Sophomore class.He doesn’t go for many girls. John Brown is the most sophisticated guy of the Junior Play Cast. Melvin likes his hair cut short. Vernon, McIntosh, and Pat Dalton can be seen together when McIntosh is around or is it the other way around. Donald Cslhoun likes a certain girl very well.(Could it be Frances H.) Now there’s W.A. and Betty. A cute pair they did make, until as you all know, another girl of course.P.S. He’s on her trail again. Campbell as they say, has chosen a secretary at Bowling Green. Now if Don Cheni has a girl it must be the one he draws. Betty Cole is the nicest girl in her row so we were told by you know who,Betty. Bill C. likes to spoon as well as croon, huh, Reva? There was Kate, not even late on her music meet date last year. Rex: the sweetest boy of the sophomore class;wavy hair and everything else. Just ask Tiny. Bob Evans is a wolf when it comes to howling at girls. W—oo Wwwooooooooo.il Lorene has a friend as everyone knows. It must be Edgar or the guy from Vandalia. Pat Dalton-is like the weather, she can't make up her mind. Frances H. likes to jig and dance, everytime she gets a chance. Edgar, won’t James let you take the car to Oakdale? Jay goes to Hannibal very late at night.What's he got down there? ???? Gearla wears a pair of wings.that's not a sign she’s an angel,they’re Bill’s. You look at Patsy and wonder, look again and wonder why you wasted you time to wonder. (Still wondering?) Henry Howald is next, the girls don’t know which Henry likes best,maple syrup or girls. He’s sweet on both. Imogene must sit home and read her magazine because her sweetie’s in the army. We don’t know why John H. smokes a pipe.Must be to have “pipe dreams.” Betty Joe, has a beau? One, two, or four? Patsy Huse is on the loose—You’d better run,she’s got a gun.(She means it,Crow) Darrell and Elaine must have it bad. If you see one the other is close by.(So close you can't tell where they start anyway, Hickory said so.) ?8 ,19 i:C 2 91 U It yiO SJlM P' .£atyss ,993' -Jrf- l-xf IT ' '-v-'-asi • ;-v.

(At least till she gets mad and silver dollars fly.) Carl K. writes all the time when he isn't doing something else. As for Elaine we think we’ve said all that has to be said. Darrell you know it all anyway. Margie and her girl friend do very well for themselves. Harold D. had a love affair with the grade -school girl.Harold D. what's the 7th and 8th grade got, us girls up here don't have. Junior has got the brownest eyes. Ask the Farber girls. Ray Littell has the reddest hair the girls all go for it,don’t they Ray? Earl is cute,but- I've never heard who his girl was.As cute as he is he must have more than one. As you all know about McIntosh we won't say any more.Ohl I forgot.He has a girl in the eighth grade too. Amen-Jinny. Oh! We told you about the Moomaw and Calhoun case before. Jean had Lee Eply on the string at the music meet,Oh my goodness. Bob McClintock likes basketball and fistfights. Did I say likes?) Moss is the greatest lover of all. (Funny books.) Juanita, told me, “She ain’t got nobody and nobody had her ' Can't you boys wake up? Lloyd Myers is a grand guy. He writes the girls letters in code without the receipe. Everett is a -good looking boy.He's like Jesus.He likes all the little girls.(So they told Mr. Graves.) That black eye Bob Palmer wears is rather black. How about Jack.Since I’m writing this I say he is a very sweet ‘onnary boy. I should know don't you think? Paul likes 79? Pecan Rolls, but who doesn’t? Bob Rhodes started the year with Reva and now he's got his paper route. Dorisjanother Rhodes gives the service men a hearty welcome. Sterling(Soup to us)tall and bashful;at least around us girls. Marilyn and her sweetie seem to have a priority on the back seat at the show. We’ve all heard about Junior Schnetzer. Anna Schnetzer goes with Eugene Garnett.Saturday night never seems to come does it Anna? Donna likes to dance,boys too,just as well or better. Tiller Ann writes to her boy friend I’m sure. Now don't you Venita Ann? Jean Watts doesn’t have long to wait, for her Bradford will soon be here.Aren't we glad Jean? C.H.Weldy has the longest hair of all the boys and what a wave. All the girls wear his watch. Tiny's boyfriend came back,and brough her a ruby pin.We all like it.Just ask her. She’ll tell you all about it. Deloris keep's her love affairs to herself,for no one seems to have her about them. Well, so long for this year. See you some time before long. .
