S. M. We, the senior class of 1947, affectionately dedicate this year book to Brother Henry Heidemann, who is celebrating his twenty-fifth anniversary as a religious of the Society of Mary. He started his career after graduating from St. Dominic's Parish, Breese, Illinois, when he entered the Ferguson Postulate of the Brothers of Mary, on August 15, l9l9. After three years of studies he made his first vows. From that time through twenty-five years of solid devotedness to the Society and to the boys under his care, he has shown innumerable talents as an educator, artist and coach. Professionally, he finds great delight in inculcating the principles of faith in youth, and his success has been vouched for by the many Christian gentlemen who so often return to call on him. Ever since his university days his chosen studies have been in the field of busi- ness, to which he is now assiduously devoting himself by training young men in the funda- mentals and practice of shorthand and bookkeeping. In the field of coaching, basketball, baseball, and track are his specialties, but he will admit he did coach football. As Athletic Director at Central he is undoubtedly one of the main supports of the Pioneer teams. What time he has left from his religious, professional, and athletic duties he spends on his hobby of poster display. Literally hundreds of signs have decorated the bulletin boards of the school, signs and posters made to develop a strong religious and scholastic spirit among the students. ' A To Brother Henry we, the senior class of 1947, extend our sincerest wishes for a happy Silver Iubilee, and add a hearty ad multos annos. CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL 5 THE REV. HENRY ALTHOFF. D.D. Bishop ot Belleville We the graduating class of '47 wish at this time to express our sincere gratefulness to His Most Excellency Henry Altholt, Bishop of Belleville, for his cooperation in obtaining for us our Catholic education. His untiring zeal to better the Catholic education has been greatly appreciated. In the past years he has inaugurated ci drive for ct new Central Catholic High School which is so badly needed to expand Catholic learning to young men of this area. Now as we leave Central we will always remember the help he has given us and hope to return the help in the future. 6 THE PIONEER-1947 THE REVEREND MGNSIGNOR ALBERT R. ZUROWESTE Superintendent Monsignor Albert R. Zuroweste has been Superintendent of Central Catholic High School since 1936, and throughout his eleven years, has done much to make Central a better place for the education of the Catholic young men of our community. Respected and admired by all, Monsignor Zuroweste has worked untiringly for Central and its students. Under his careful guidance, the enrollment has increased to over four hundred students. He personally directed a successful drive for a substantial fund to con struct a new Central Catholic High School. We, the graduating Class of '47, wish to thank Monsignor Zuroweste for his untiring el- forts in behalf of the schools and Wish him success in all further undertakings. May the bless- ing of God be with him always. f Lx E IE' Q 5 E' 3 S Q 2 E . . E 1' , 2 3 5 I F ?+ T P L A 5 2 ik, Va UM 8 THE PIONEER-1947 5 LEO DREXLER, S. M.

WILLIAM ENGLAND vied with himself to understand and apply the facts and principles of knowledge taught him in his various courses. He has willingly helped in sharing in the entertainment programs for the Mothers' Club meetings, and especially has been active in the different speech events of the year. IOSEPH POETTGEN VYILLIAM BEAN. a victim of polio, lived and died with a smile on his face. His fellow students sincerely appreciate the good he spread by his example of Christian living and saintly dying. PHILIP IIHEINIICKER WILIIAM ENGLAND IOSEPH POETTGEN, an all-time honor student, claimed the respect of both faculty and student body as he assiduously applied himself to the work placed before him. He was an inspiration to his fellow students who deeply grieve his departure. IN MEMORIAM WILLIAM BEAN SUPER - SALESMAN The faculty has chosen Philip Rheinecker as the Super-Salesman of the year. Throughout the year in the various raffle drives that were held at Central he proved himself tops among the high sellers. He sold his highest number of cards during the Thanksgiving season when he sold 301 turkey raffle cards. It is with this spirit and salesmanship that so many of Central's drives prove to be a success, and help in the upkeep of the school and its sports.

The fighting Pioneers tied for first place with St. Louis U. High and South Side in the Greater St. Louis Prep League. The team, composed of 17 seniors and the other 16 men being underclassmen, started the seasons off by drubbing Marquette of Alton 45-0, the highest score ever attained by any Cen- tral gridders. From there on, under the coaching of Tom Dunn who was with us for the first time, the line held and charged at the right time and the backs ran hard, just what any team needs to have c: winner. Everything Went along smoothly for some time with the Pioneers boasting an unbeaten, untied, unscored upon record. The victims being: Marquette 45-U5 South Side 6-Up McBride 12-U. Then the Pioneers had one of those bad nights all teams have occasionally. Cathedral threatened several times that night but the Pioneer line held them to c: scoreless game, U-0. They went on to beat C. B. C. 13-7, this broke up our unscored upon record, And just when Central had eg chance of winning an undisputed first place in the Prep League with St. Louis U. Hi being the real threat left on the Prep League Schedule, the rains came and the Pioneers not being good M11dGlefS 1OSf to Sf- Louis U- Hi 19-U, their only loss in the Prep League.

The only thing noticeable was the three or four inches ct water that came up when the playerss Went down. A game that proved to be a disappointment to both spectators and players was the East Side-Central game. From the very iirst whistleit seemed to be Central's game. Although the final score was 7-O, Central was the first to score a touchdown, but it was called back on a clipping penalty. East Side scored their only touchdown in the third quarter which proved to be the only score ot the game although Central threatened a dozen times in the last quar- ter, but was consistently set back by penalties.

COUGHLIN WALLY KNOPIK RON MACKIN Ill! GBIMES Captuln The graduating class ot l947 is proud of its great basketball team. A team heralded as the greatest team Central ever put out. It would seem that the season was a total loss, be- cause of the defeats handed to them by their city rivals, East Siders, but the record ot twenty wins and eight losses stands out as the best record for any Central basketball team. The 1946-1947 team Acame through the tough Prep League with a co-championship. This year's team was the first Central team ever to receive mention by the United Press and Associated Press polls for the Illinois High School basketball team. In graduating, something is gained and something is lost. The loss of the two 6 ft.. 5 in. Coughlin twins, Moe Belz, Wally Knopik, lim Grimes and Ron Mackin will be hard to re place. Gene Coughlin's scoring punch, rebounding, and floor play earned him the right to be placed on several all-star teams. Gene's playing this year and last year makes him one ol the outstanding basketball players ever to attend Central. George Coughlin, because oi early injuries started oli slowly, but in the end he couldn't be beat. Wally Knopik who carried the Central team through its early victories was a player whom the team couldn't do without. Moe Belz 'undoubtedly one of the hardest playing, fighting boys on the team, was picked on the All-Prep team. Iim Grimes lan All-District football playerl showed his athletic ability as Well in basketball. Ron Mackin, who like George Coughlin got oft to a slow start, came into his true form toward the end ot the season. With the nucleus of I. C. Cunningham, Bob O'Brien, Eddie Czech, Tom Delaney, Bill Busekrus. and Ray Sullivan, Coach Tom Dunn should have some good material for next year's team. B TEAM The Central Beezers finished their regular season with a record of tour wins and five losses. Pint-size Don DeMarse, a Ireshman, lead the scoring with a grand total of 60 points. Fat Bauer, who played only five games, really had his eye on the basket, hitting 35 points. Coach Tom Dunn expects these boys to be the backbone of the 1948 Varsity squad. We, the graduating seniors, hope to see these boys performing on another championship team. CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL XB' BASKETBALL Front Row: R. Watkins, C. Halloran, D. DeMarse, D. Forhan, I.

The Track team of Central Catholic entered its fourth season of competition this year. Hampered by bad weather and inadequate track facilities, the team was slow in getting in condition. Brother Gittinger, in his initial attempt as track coach of Central, is putting the team into good shape. Since its reorganization four years ago, the aspirants reporting for track has greatly in- creased. There were over 60 boys who reported on the first day of practice this year includ- ing many vets of last year. With the increase of interest in track, Central is producing a more promising track team. The Senior Division, composed of boys 16112 years of age and older. had trouble in forming a complete team because of lack of older boys ,but the Iunior Division had plenty of material, but needed lots ol work. The team's real test will come in the Annual Prep League meet at Public Schools Sta- dium. Those entered in the Senior Division are: Hal Price, lim Belz and Schlattweiler, 100 yard dash, Price, Iacobus and McWilliams, 220 yard dash: Hohe, 440 yard dash, Krebs, 880 yard run. The relay team will be composed of Price, Krebs, Schlattweiler and Iacobus. The medley relay team will be composed of Belz, Arterburn, Hohe and McWilliams.

The 1947 Baseball Team, up until this book went to press, was showing great possibilities of following in the footsteps of past teams, that is as State Runner-ups. Over sixty candidates were on hand to greet Coach Tom Dunn, who is coaching his first Central Baseball team. After the first couple of games Coach Dunn picked the boys with the most possibilities, which cut the squad down to twenty-two. Of those, two are freshmen, Don DeMarse playing regular second base and Bruce Krus. Iunie Wenkel, the number one hurler has won 3 of 4 games entered. The other pitchers who also play important parts in the hurling assignments are: Leo Shea, Don Bertrand, Char- lie Boyle, Ray Sullivan and Charlie Zollner. Returning lettermen who are playing with the team this year are: Flake, Bertrand, Cun- ningham, Iim Gasaway, Novak, Grimes, O'Brien, LaChance, Haas, Sullivan, Wenkel and Belz. After the first round of play in the Prep League, Central has a perfect record of 4 wins, no losses or ties, however, they did lose to Freeburg and Madison in non-league tilts.

The Central Catholic Tennis team got off to a bad start last tall by losing their first game of the Prep League to a strong St. Louis U. High by the score of 5-U. And then being defeated by a witty C.B.C. team by the score ot 4-l, the team rallied to defeat the South Side team 3-2, and then lost their last game of the season by the score of 2-3. Central had three lettermen Who returned last fall, which was a big advantage to the team. Those lettermen who returned Were: Bob O'Brien, who was our leading player, Won 3 and lost 4. Iim Gasaway who won 2 and lost 4. Norman Roewe, Won 1 and lost 2. Rich McGovern Won 2 and lost 2. The two seniors on the team, Tom Krebs and Ioe Tannehill, Won 1 and lost 2 apiece. Brother Robert Buss, tennis coach, paired up the doubles teams as follows: Bob O'Brien and lim Gasawayg Iohn Sullivan and Ioe Tannehillg Norman Roewe and Rich McGovern.

After a year of absence, boxing was resumed again at Central. The bouts were held at the Knights oi Columbus gym on the nights of March 18, 20, 24, 25 and 27. They proved to be exceptionally good fights and the contestants showed true sportsmanship whether they won or lost. Out of sixty-one fighters there were twenty who were crowned champions, seven of them being in the open division, six oi them in the novice, and seven in the sub-novice. The champions received either a gold medal or a golden glove and all oi the pugilists received a small boxing emblem to put on their sweater. The school wishes to extend its sincerest thanks to the Alumni who helped them put this sports event across, we wish also to thank the ret, Kid Shaulters, who also acted as a judge along with Dr. Ray Scheske and Mr. Elmer McCarron.

L 41 THE PIONEER-1947 MEL S131 CHEER LEADERS The Cheer leaders deserve great credit and sincere thanks from the graduates lor their performance throughout the school year. With Central now at the top of the Sport circle, the school needs the backing and cheering which is possible only when there are cheerleaders to lead the way. Alvin Enteman and Mel Saul were the only Central stu- dents to stick out a full year of cheer leading and the latter is leaving via graduation. The girl cheerleaders are chosen from the student body of St. Teresa's Academy. Front Row: Mary Ellen Bresnahan, Margie Shea, Iecm Hayes, Pat Kernan. Back Row: Margie Schaefer, Peggy Halloran, Frances Wohlrab, Betty Marlin. Among the girl cheerleaders, Pat Kernan, Betty Marlin, Frances Wohlrab, and Peggy Halloran are graduating. The remaining cheerleaders, Mary Ellen Bresnahan, Iean Hayes, Margie Shea and Margie Schaefer, with their experience of the last two years should be the nucleus of a great team for next year.

OUR CHAPEL The Retreat, which always causes a deep silence throughout Central. lasted three days, from Dec. 3 to Dec. 5. The students, realizing that the Retreat was one ol the outstanding events of the year, took a most earnest and active part in it. These three days of silence, prayer and meditation, was strictly observed by all students. The auditorium was converted into a chapel lor this special occasion where the Holy Sac- rifice of the Mass was celebrated daily and where the students could visit the Blessed Sacra- ment which was exposed' during the day. The Seniors took a special interest in the retreat because it was their last before going out into the world. They prayed lor God's grace especially to choose their vocation wisely. We wish here. to thank Father Iames Young, S.M., for his splendid guidance of the Retreat and his inspiring sermons that were of great benefit to the boys of Central. The choice of Father Young was a wise one for he had had experience with boys before as a teacher in the Society of Mary before becoming a priest. 46 THE PIONEER-1947 OFFICERS Lelt to Right: PAT 0'HARA.

This club was formed two years ago and since that time has grown to be a much better organization. The main purpose of the club is to promote loyalty among the students. Since the club has been formed there have been more loyal students attending Central than ever before. The Moderator this year was Brother Eugene Gittinger, S.M. He has done a fine job in working with the members to promote activities in the school. Under the leadership of Iim Boucher, Bill Busekrus, Pat O'Hara and Lowell Iler, the club has done many helpful things for the school. Among them, was putting on a social for the benefit of the students, encourag- ing First Friday Communions, backing drives put on by the school. It also encouraged the students to back the Holy Name Rally in which Central boys participated last fall. The graduates wish to thank all C.C.L.C. members for the task they have undertaken in promoting all activities of Central and sincerely hope they may continue to serve Central and turn out many more loyal students.

The C Club Lettermen's Club was originated early this year by Coach Tom Dunn for the benefit of boys at Central who have earned a Varsity letter in sports. Elections were held early in the year and Richard King Sullivan came out on top as President, Eugene Bird Coughlin capturing the Vice-President's job, and William Stump Foley taking the Secretary-Treasurer's post. The purpose ol the C Club is to grouse interest in the school teams and as an example for the underclassmen, that they might strive to win S1-1Ch an hO1'10red award. This being the first year that the C Club has operated, it was not very active, but it is expected to be one of the main supporters of Central's activities in the future. At the close of the football season it was decided to have a dance for the benefit ot the C Club. It was also decided to invite one of Central's Co-Champs in football, namely St. Mary's tSouth Sidel, as their guests. There were so many activities during the early school months and then Lent, that the dance had to be postponed until April 25th. The dance was restricted to the Central Student body and lettermen ot St. Mary's of St. Louis. 48 THE PIONEER-1947 FCOTBALL QUEEN MISS PAT KERNAN Miss Pat Kernan was chosen as Central's Football Queen tor 1946. Miss Kernan was se- lected by popular vote by those Who bought tickets to Central's football games. The tickets, each representing so many votes, had a place for a Write-in vote and in this Way Miss Kernan won by a slight margin over the other candidates. The candidates, all students ot St. Teresa's Academy, were chosen by the student body ot St. Teresa's. Each Iunicr and Senior home room selected their candidates and then helped them in the sale ot tickets. The other candidates, Who ran close behind Miss Kernan, were: Miss Frances Wohlrab, Miss Diane Peters, Miss Beverly Iasper, Miss Dorothy Smith and Miss Dorothy Ulrich. Miss Kernan is also president of the Senior Class of '47 and a member of the Cheerleaders ot Central.

Our heads are bloody but unbowedf' We entered the Catholic Interscholastic Speech League with determination to bring back the laurels. Though the laurels will be brought back next year, We know we accomplished one thing-namely, the ability to speak our mind before an audience without interference from our knees. The graduating class of 1947 wants to thank the Oratory members fcr their fine perform- ance to the student body during the year. Any time entertainment was needed the Oratory Club was right there to give well rounded performances. Not only was this club entertaining and interesting, but through many of their talks a lot of Centralites were brought closer to God. Sanctity, a Challenge to Modern Youth, was a well heated topic that brought about much discussion amongst the student body. This topic served as the heading for the Western Catholic Oratory Contest in which Central was highly represented. Brother Lehan deserves much credit for his efforts and patience during the past year. The graduating class sincerely hopes Brother Lehan's efforts have not been made in vain and that Oratory will continue next year in a more extensive field. CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL DEBATE I B Bob McEvi1ly, Bill England, Iim Certich, Harold Ring, Bob Durbin, Bill Durbin. The debate team having taken first place in the practice debate tournament held at St Louis U. High in October with four gold medals to prove it, Iim Certich. Harold Ring, Bill Eng- land and Bill Durbin set out with confidence into the big time. At the end of two rounds one held in December and another in Ianuary, Central's stalwarts clutched precariously to the third place. Sophomore Bob Durbin, replacing his big brother Bill, took sick and gave his position as second negative debater to Bob McEvilly in the third round, held at St. Mary's High School in April. Bob McEvilly and Bill England won one debate, then Ring and Certich tallied one. The fourth round was held at St. Elizabeth's Academy and Central again came back with one victory. So, with six boys interested, and one graduating, Central looks for a winning team in t' years to come. This ' t t l ' ' ' year s o a score of 12 victories gives us hope for a better record next year. Bill England, although only a freshman was a standout on the debate team- he was a hard worker, a conscientious team man and a good loser. Harold Ring, a so homore h p W o was slow in getting started, but when the going wls tough, was c' hard man to beat Bob Durbin a sophomore, took over his brother's spot and came through in true form Iim Certich, a jul mor, was also a great help to the squad McEv1lly lacked experience this ear but B th . y , ro er Lehan is expecting great things from him next year. Bill Durbin, the only graduating man on th d b ' ' ' ' e e ate team, will be sorely missed because oi his fine character, true understanding and worldly knowledge, all of which sums him up as one of the best debaters in this area. -1.-tl,-.uh - CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL THE PIONEER STAFF xx, 7,- Lelt to Right: Bill Gallagher, Marcel McEvilly, Walter Knopik, Harold Price. The 1947 Edition of The Pioneer is really the result of a group of hard working Seniors who thought this year's book should be the largest and the best, as the 1947 Class is the largest class ever to graduate from Central. One of the biggest obstacles that is confronted every year is the money end. This finan- cial obstacle was the largest ever encountered by a Pioneer Staff on account of the great number ot graduate and other added features in this book which helped to raise the cost by a more than average amount of engraving that was necessary and the 32 added pages over last year's book, which was the largest up to this time. Price, Knopik, Gallagher, McEvilly, and McKenzie deserve credit for their arrangement of pages and writing and correcting of articles. Belz, Mackin, Durbin and O'Hara should be complimented on their articles. Rolek, Werner, McEvilly, Needham, Olson, Choma, Keck, Boyle, Ioyce, B. Shay and Wenkel lead the Seniors in obtaining ads for financing the book. Brother Frank Gutting deserves the Statf's thanks for the pictures he supplied. Brother Henry Heidemann put in many hours of work as the faculty advisor. Ed Bachesta should be men- tioned also for his art work, namely the front piece to every section. The Seniors and the Staff wish to thank all others, whose names would be too numerous to mention, for their part in making this book ia dreamt come true. 54 THE PIONEER--1947 FATHER AND FRIEND CLUB S. srl Standing: Tom Hennessey, secretary, Walter Neville, vice-president.

With gratitude and love in the hearts of all the students and teachers, we, the Seniors, wish to thank each and every member of the Father and Friend Club for makin gour school a better institution of learn- ing. With contributions to and improvements of the school, the Club is Without doubt the good moral, intellectual and physical benefactor of Central Catholic High. Always on hand when financial advice and help are needed, the Club will continue, although the students come and go, to benefit all who are in need of aid. Among the Club's social activities the following were outstanding: the turkey drive, Mul- ligan and Stag Card Party and the First Annual Homecoming and Fish Fry. All these ac- tivities added quite a sum to the Club's treasury. The Father and Friend Club also gives a scholarship each year to Central, gives a gift to each graduate, fetes the athletes, and backs up all other activities the school sponsors. We, the graduates of '47, sincerely appreciate this and all other assistance rendered by this loyal organization. Thank you, Father and Friend Club.

We know we could write pages about the work you have done for Central. Naturally, then, we will not be able to fully express our appreciation in these few lines. Yet we do wish to thank you. Thank you-first of all for the benefits we have enjoyed from your countless gifts of the past years, and thank you for your gratuity this year. You have helped Msgr. Zuroweste greatly by sponsoring two mammoth card parties and raffles. You actively supported our social activities in the hall. As a final touch you lent your personal service to the provision of the farewell Prom to we graduates. As we bid farewell to our Alma Mater, it is the wish of the graduates of 1947 that your club increase in membership and may God and His Blessed Mother protect and guide all your undertakings. 56 THE PIONEER-1947 ALUMNI 1947 OFFICERS OF THE CLUB President ...,,,,.,...... .......

Frank Prokopf Sergeant ,,,,, ....... , Bill Klaus After the boys came back from service, a third organization was formed at Central. namely the Alumni Association. Their aim is to lend moral as well as financial assistance to the school wherever possible. It was through their efforts that Central had their first football queen. The Association sponsored a dance at which the queen was crowned. The event turned out to be a great success. Central had to drop boxing last year due to the fact that the auditorium was no longer a safe place. The Alumni suggested that we use the K. of C. gym. With their efforts Central again had boxing this year. This organization is not only Working for its own cause, but is working hand in hand with the Father and Friend Club. In fact, over forty of its members belong to the latter Club also. The Club held bi-monthly meetings and has a membership of three hundred or more members. This number should and very likely will increase to four or five hundred by Sep- tember. We, the seniors, extend our sincere thanks to the newly formed club, for the services they rendered to the school the past year and promise to join the Club in the near future. an 1 QED: Q A QFRWEEW KY THE PIONEER--1947 SCHOOL PAPER SENIOR STAFF Lel to lfght: lack Bresnahan, Leo Shea, Harold Price, Ben Blue, lim Boucher Lowell lle.- and Don Bertrand. The Senior Staff managed the school paper for the first half of the year and then the paper was turned over to the underclassmen so they could become familiar with its operation. Price, Iler and Blue were formatists while Leo Shea, Bresnahan, Boucher and Bertrand wrote up the articles. Most of the senior staff had experience from last year and thus it was no task to get the paper back into circulation after the Commencement of school. And then by the foresight of Brother Iustin Burghoff it was decided to turn the paper over to the underclassmen so they might get some idea of how the paper is put out. Lol to Right. Seated: Harry White, Anthony Ianik, Bill McGovern, Bill Busekrus. Stand- lng Alvin Dannehold, Bob Gabioud. The Iunior Staff took right up where the Seniors left off and did a grand job. Harry White and Anthony Ianik received their experience working with the Senior Staff and it was no trouble for them to break in some new members. Thus White and Ianik became formatists and McGovern. Busekrus, Roewe, Leezey, Dannehold and Gabioud took up the task of writing the articles which carried with them a great amount of news. JUNIOR STAFF 50 THE PIONEER-1947 CAMERA CLUB The Camerc: Club, which reorganized after the Christmas holidays, has progressed rap- idly. The club holds its meetings every Monday in the Chemistry Laboratory. Brother Frank Gutting Who has spent many hours in his darkroom printing pictures for the Annual and other things, has also put in much time teaching the Camera Club mem- bers the elements of camera construction, use, etc., the development of film and printing and enlarging. With such a large turnout of camera enthusiasts, Brother Frank found it necessary to turn the Chemistry Lab storeroom into a darkroom to have mass operations and accommo- date all the boys. A few of the experienced boys in the club are McAteer, Knaus, Bachesta, Langdon, Carr, Syzdek, Kowalski and Hartlein. At present the club has three enlargers in use and are thinking about getting more equipment from the small profit they make from the pictures they sell to the students of dit- ferent activities of the school. A lot ol the success of any annual depends upon the pictures acquired. and it is hoped the Camera Club realizes this cmd gets in the swing of things next year to put out a worthwhile annual. CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL 61 C F oofB AL LTBA N Q U ET Something was added to the 1946 football season at Central. Not only football victories, a new coach, and new football jerseys, but also a football banquet given by the Fourth Degree Assembly of East St. Louis Knights of Columbus. The banquet was held at the K. of C. building Ianuary eighth, nineten hundred and forty- seven in which Coach Tom Dunn and 31 football players along with ten cheerleaders, were honored by a fine dinner, wonderful entertainment, and interesting speeches. Remarks were made by Rt. Rev. Monsignor A. R. Zuroweste, Brother Leo Drexler, and Hon- orable Iohn T. Connors. An interesting remark made was the one by the latter, who said, I had the pleasure of seeing some of the football games this year and I will say that not once did I see unsportsman-like conduct on the field. He also brought out how the future of East St. Louis depends on the youth of today. The principal speakers were Michael Henry, former manager of WTMV Broadcasting Sta- tion and Ellis Veech, Sports Editor of an East St. Louis paper. After the speeches, letters were awarded to twenty-eight of the Central gridders by Coach Tom Dunn. Compacts were presented to the girl cheerleaders by Toastmaster George Gerold.
