Juniors Ken Miller, Debbie Ohmer, Joyce Noland and Annette Afanador meet at their lockers upon arriving at school. Working together, playing together, or studying together, students at Centerville felt the warm glow of friemifhip present in every facet of CHS life, While absorbing the spirit and traditions of the school, they formed lasting ties with their classmates and gained many priceless memories. In their first year at CHS, sophomores were initiated into the student body by undertaking their first large project as a class-the presentation of the 1965 Homecoming. With spring came an event that many had long anticipated-the ordering and receiving of the class rings, high school's of- ficial status symbol. Sell more magazines! was the cry of the juniors as they worked together to raise funds with which to present a memorable prom for the class of 1966. Running the con- cession stand and cleaning the auditorium after basketball games were among the ways that the class of '67 contributed to a successful year as a class at CHS. Realizing a dream of many years, the seniors enjoyed the privileges that came'with being upperclassmen with much delight and a touch ofhregret. After presenting a successful class play, The Mome That Roared, they turned their attention to college entrance exams. As the year drew to a close, they knew that it was not the building, the classrooms, or evenl the teachers that had made the last three years what they weregi it was their classmates and friends. At noon in the cafeteria, seniors enjoy having lunch together.
