The 1927 volume is the product of the' efforts of the teachers, staff, and student body, but it is also the prqduct of the ef- forts of all the students and teachers dat- ing from the day the first graduates left our halls.

S. and although he may be far away his light still shines and our High School is better today because thousands of students and hundreds of teachers have served and are serving it loyally, sincerely, and faithfully.

It was autumn,,in the year 1923, and, as the bell sadly tolled the death oli three months, vacation, there was assembled on the north side of the assembly a group of faces strange to that domain. They were of verdant hue and wondering eye; they were Freshmen. How they found their places no one knew; no, not even they. They were as hits of straw carried along in the stream of this new and strange experience. But time has passedu-it usually does, however---and now, believe it or not, our honorable, respected and envied Seniors are those same students who began their struggling existence as Freshies, four long years ago. True, they are fewer in number, and they look somewhat different because of their increase in wisdom and stature; in fact, the change is so great as to make us believe that Darwin was right. Nevertheless it cannot be denied that our worthy Seniors were once those same insignificant Fresh- men. Let us see what has aided in this remarkable evolution from Frosh to Senior: In the first place there is to be considered the effect of the faculty,s four years of untiring effort upon them. In their first year they found that their principal, Miss Booher, was their ally, and she has continued to be so throughout their stay in High School, doing much to help them over the rough places. Then in their beginning year, while they were busy trying to absorb Latin and Algebra, they managed to live through a mixer; and even became so brave as to hold a class meeting and elect officers. V By the end of the year they had become sufficient- ly acquainted with High School to have had a party, and to have taken part in the va- rious school drives, selling their share of the football tickets and Christmas seals. When they came back next year as full-fledged Sophomores, and found that they were no longer the objects of fun, they began to enjoy the fun themselves, anti at once began to take their part in High School life. They selected officers and spon- sors, and chose their own Class colors, unlike the previous year, when their color, green, had been forced upon them. They conducted their social affairs and the pro- grams that they gave in a manner which hefitted the dignity of their position as Sophs. And this year they boasted three letter men in football and several basketball players. As they triumphantly took their places as Juniors the following year, with none above them but the Seniors, it was then that they demonstrated just how successfully they could manage the job of being a class in C. C. 1-1.8. This year, in addition to having parties and electing officers and giving rallies, they had the responsibility of the Junior plays, and the Junior- -Senior banquet. The manner in which these affairs were conducted would have been a great cred- it to any class. Three one-act plays were given: three Pills in a Bottle , iiBridgesh, and iiFourteeni The banquet was an exceptionally pretty one, for the gym was dec- orated in a truly Dutch style and the guests felt that they had been miraculously trans- ported to Holland. As Juniors they were very proud of their athletic record. They had three men Page Twrnly-xe-vcn ilOLD ROSE and GREEN ,27li Central City, Nebraska on the football team and three on the basketball team. At last these same students reached the stage in their evolution when they were called Seniors. But they were not content to bask in the glory of that name alone; in- stead, they set out to give that name even more meaning. They started out the year with true Senior pep and selected officers and spon- sors to pilot them through this last and important year. Then they chose an able staff to publish the best Old Rose and Green for many a year. Next they elected their representatives for president and treasurer of the Ath- letic Association. - Then the football captain, a Senior of course, with his team, on whieh were a large number of seniors, went through the season with but two defeats. Of course, theC t,ieniors selected their candidates for representative boy and girl. Senior day was observed with a most appropriate program, and Sneak day was a very welcome change for both the Seniors and the lower classmen. The Senior class play, liAdam and Evai was a cheering success, not a howling one. , Thus we have seen, in the history of the Class of 27, the evolution from Frosh' to Senior; may they grow in such a manner when they become Freshmen in life.

THE SENIOR CLASS CLASS PROPHECY It was after nightfall when I arrived at Central City, after an absence of many years, and I was attracted to a noisy carnival that Was enjoying a brief but profit- able stay in my native town. Most of the town seemed to be there, yet I saw no ' familiar faces. I wandered about until I came to a less frequented part of the grounds, some- what removed from the clamor of the carnivaPs main attractions. There I stopped before an odd, weathcr-beaten tent, hesitated a moment, then entered. In one car- ner sat an old gypsy fortune teller, as old and weather-beaten as the tent itself. In front of her was a table, on which was an oriental incense burner. I asked the old woman if she could tell me where my former classmates were, and what they were doing. For an answer, she threw some powder into the burner, and soon the Page Twenly-nine iiOLD ROSE and GREEN ,27,, Central City, Nebraska tent was filled with a dense, exotic incense. She mumbled some mystic words, and just as I felt the bonds of consciousness slipping from me, she placed before me a large crystal globe. As I gazed into its depths, I beheld with startling clearness what my classmates were doing. Deep down in a coal mine toiled Beatrice Cover. She was working to prove a bet, made with Loren Willhoft, that women are not weaker physically than men. Loren himself was filling the position of Governor of New York, having secured this position because of his views on prohibition, at the death of Ai Smith. The scene changed to the interior of a well- known movie theater in New York. As the famous pictuie. iiAre W7omen People?, was Hashed on the screen, I saw sev- eral names that were as familiar to me as they were to the movie- going populace. This picture was directed by Victor Johnston and Eddie Kozal. Mary Heaton and Evelyn Johnson were the stars playing the leading roles. Jack Cherry, a widower with nine children, was happily married to Phyllis Smith. They were raising chickens on their farm in the sand hills. The adjoining farm, HFairacres, was owned and managed by Wayne Persons and his wife, Dorothy Baird. Wayne said that life just suited him, because he didnt have to have a written ex- cuse every time he was late. The children of both these happy families, as well as those of surrounding farms, were going to the little white school house on the corner. There the prim little teacher, Prudence Baird, was explaining the nebular hypothesis to her intelligent eighthD Graders. In the office of a New York skyscraper Alice Gitthens was cartooning for iILifeii, while far away in the wilds of Arizona her estranged husband, Lloyd Mar- tin, was writing poems which were a great source of comfort to those at odds with the world. Poor Lloyd, in his grief, was comforted by soothing the anguish of others. Seward Desch was employed by a large air transport company. Seward was an expert at patching air pockets. Laura Senkbile and Blanch Johnson were making a nice living by seliingvtheir pictures as a iibefore-a11ti-aftcr-taking,, advertisement for a IIhow-to-grow-tail course. Very touching was the scene that next presented itself. Reverend John Math- ieson was preaching the funeral of Kenneth Nielsen, who was killed when he went to sleep driving his aiiplane on an air mail route. Reverend Mathieson's able wife, Margaret New, was vainly trying to console NIarie Sutherland, who had been Ken- neth,s bride of but a few weeks. What a contrast were the scenes that immediately followed! In New York Ruth Fauquier was. shown as the charming proprietress of an hilarious night club. In Paris, in G. Brannaifs theatre, Clara Ashley and Eldora Hosier, the fa- mous dancing girls, were winning the applause of the audience by their captivating dances, and the Page Brothers were thrilling the audience with their daring aerial acts. In Mlle. Bartons Fashion Shoppe, also in Paris, Kathryn Nielsen and Edna Zlomke were employed as mannequins for Anne 5 exclusive creations. In Sioux City Pauline Riggs was attempting to secure a divorce from her hus- band, John McCullough. She claimed that Fern Shelton alienated his affettions. Page Thirty Central City, Nebraska llOLD ROSE and GREEN ,27 Fern nursed John back to health when he was sorely afflicted with elasticity of the grey matter. Strangely enough, the next scene showed that Joe Ashelford and Allen King were zealous members of the House of David. Herbert Hansel: and Vera Willeman Hansen were leaders of an orchestra that was said to rival Paul Whiteman s. Vera always did assert her rights. In the eXecutivds chair in the national capital sat Charles Osterman, serving his second term. His eflicient private secretary was none other than Enid McCollister. But he was not the only one of the Class of ,27 to be seen in politics, for Elwyn Reeves, speaker of the house, and Duane Woods, a prominent Solon, were trying to secure the passage of the Reeves-Woods bill, which provided for a department of education with a secretary in the presidentls cabinet. Carl Almqtlist, a wealthy contractor, was married to Doris Lyon. I saw the president of Nebraska Central College, Kenneth OlNele, giving an address before the W. C. T. U., whose able leader was Emily Richards. K i How astonishing was the scene next visible! Francis Braucher and Mayme Kyes in perfect contentment with their position as managers of the Central City dump! In the supreme court of Nebraska I saw Judge D. Kyes pounding his desk in an effort to restore cider. You see, he had just decided a case in favor of Wilma Irwin, llthe second Aimee McPherson . Much credit was due Alice Carraher. and Esther Crites, the counsel for the defense. A notable feat was accomplished by Edna Johnson when she swam the Hud- son Bay. Her trainer was Lena Cowgill, herself a record-holder in several events. The visions ceased. I came back to consciousness of my earthly surroundings with a start. I paid the old gypsy and left the tent. Who am I, you ask? I am Earl Rogers, just returned from the interior of Africa, where I discovered several new species of butterflies. i '33 33 3 CLASS POEM We are the Class of l27; We not only do our school work The best we have ever known, BUt outside work 35 well, Tl h in ever lace So of our deeds and character iroug every way, Y P , Welre not afraid to tell.

Look! and Wonder! Itis the Junior Class of Central City High School! . Only three short years since we were Freshmen, but with the freshness turned to originality, plus the ambition and hopes of the Sophomore year, we came sixty strong into the Junior year. Next, realizing that such force was useless without leadership, we called our first Junior class meeting and elected Harold Wilson, president; Roy Larson, vice president; Mary Belle Sampscn, secretary-treasurer; Mrs. Kentopp, sponsor; Miss Connell, co-sponsot. Our next move was in the Broadcaster subscription campaign in which the Juniors went 100 per cent and ranked the highest in the season Football ticket sale. The Juniors as a class were very energetic and active, even more full of pep, and were strong class and school boosters. ----Gerald Cole. 3, mi '0, o i; la .JUNIOR CLASS PLAY the Charm School? the Junior play for 1927 was presented March 4 at the Martha Ellen Auditorium. Austin Bevans, an automobile salesman, who has always wanted to he a teacher, inherits a girls, school. His general school policy is to teach the girls charm. He takes his pals, George Boyd, an expert accountant, and a young law student, David MacKenzie, with him to assist in managing the school. Tim and Jim Simpkins, twins, who are not exactly iazy, but neither do they' love work, think it would be fine to teach in a girls 'schooL So, uninvited, they go to the iiFairview school, and because they are good friends of Austinis and are out of work, they obtain positions as dancing and music instructors. Both twins fall in love with Sally Boyd, Georgek sister, and'they furnish much of the life of the play. Elise Benedotti is president of the senior class and Georgds fiance. She falls . . in love with the handsome Austin Bevans and her method of winning him is very humorous. Mr. Johns, who has a heavy mortgage on the school, has made Austin sign a Page Tbirly-seven OLD ROSE and GREEN 27, Central City, Nebraska contract stating that he will not fall in love with any girl at the school under penalty of losing the school. Miss Hays, former wife of Mr. Johns, is second in command at the school and is assisted by the easily fussed school secretary, Miss Curtis. llBut allls well that ends well? Elise is restored to Austin after her wild attempt to run away and they decide that they are willing to give up the school for each other. Austin accepts the position offered by Mr. Johns and he in turn gains the good will of Miss Hays and gives her the school. The twins andSally all go to Poughkeepsie to be near each otheh The play went off wonderfully well and held the full house in unrestrained mirth from the opening curtain to the close. Much credit for this success is due the stage, property and light crews, the business end producing staff, the ushers, ticket sellers and our faithful'sponsors, Mrs. Kentopp and Miss Connell, who spent much time and effort to make the play what it was.

The first part of the evening was spent in playing games. The boys and girls of the various classes alternated in playing with one another. After playing games a while every one gathered around the band-stand to hear and see the program. There were nine numbers on the program each one of which was greatly enjoyed. They were as follows: Singing by each class, Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen; fGath- ering of the Nutsh; TTYes, We Have No Trains,'; TTDentistryiE TTKing of Hunky Bunk ; uPortrait Painting,,; Strong Man,i; TiThe Goath; TTThe Old Rose and the Green?

Monday was spent as a rallying day to get back into the work after our vacation for the State Teachers convention and to get ready for the rest of the week. Tuesday and Wednesday were the big visiting days. Many parents came to visit our regular work on these days. Our general assembly program for that day was presented by Home-rooms 33 and 36, and was given from 1:50 to 2:50. It was a patriotic program, in which both regular and intra-curriculat work were exhibited. Wednesday the members of the Domestic Science class were hostesses to the Cham- ber of Commerce and to the Lions club. Thursday was the great Aurora-Central City football game. No school. Friday was spent in the regular work and we had a program by the Fancy Work club, during the regular assembly period. The school week was closed by Friday nighfs program, at which time the entire school produced the pageant, the Light? Sunday was iiEvery-High-School-PupiI-in-Chutch day. Y3??? VOCATIONAL GUIDANCE Vocational Guidanlce has been added to the curriculum of Central City High School and is proving to be a very interesting and helpful subject. I i A Vocational survey of the High School was taken and with the co-operation of local business men,s clubs, conferences and programs were arranged, on the programs were the following speakers: Dr. Fred Fouts, Rev. Bryant Howe and Dr. FuImer. Dr. Fouts and Reverend Howe both proved to be very interesting and both gave splendid addresses. At this writing Dr. Fulmer has been unahle to give his address owing to his ill- xncss, but we know he will prove as interesting as the other speakers have. 6E3, 663, I Page Fifly-ninc Cent MI City, Nebraska OLD ROSE and GREEN 27 , ,ee 95 L 3 Find aNSVWTHrs cm ire; Page Sixty Central City, Nebraska OLD ROSE and GREEN ,27,, 3 MM lee; 7-th .31 ,9 .1.-. 7 - went 2 z i i CLNIRAL U V NEnRAsxAQL IQ 5R 20,-1926 ' X A .. vamt, i. , . , I?

THE SCIENCE CLUB The officers of the Science club are: President, Seward Desch; vice president, Eddie Kozal; secre- tary, Ervin Rembolt. This class meets on Wednesdays and Fridays. On Wednesday the students give reports on various topics such as Astronomy, Biology, Chemistry and Physics. On Fridays the entire period is taken up with the study and discussion of Astronomy. The purpose of this class is to obtain as much knowledge as possible of science of all kinds. As time will not permit to take up the study of many topics in detail we aim to learn as many general facts as possible in the time given us. Mr. DahL strom has proven a very capable instructor and has made this period so interesting that every member enjoys the work. i -Seward Detcb.

DECLAMATION CLUB The Declamation people met on Monday and Thursday of each week. Work this year was car- ried on very systematically and was particularly well organized from the very first. Readings were se- lected by each member and given in class. The second type of work taken up was play producing. One of the plays was put on for the Orpheum and received much applause. The latter part of the year was spent in preparing for the Declamatoty contest. Besides the declamatory work proper, a part of the pe- riod each day was devoted to proper breathing and other exercises conducive to poise and dignity. One of the big outstanding events put across by the declamation class was the sponsoring of the pageant, iiThe Light . We feel that great credit is due to our instructor, Mrs. Kentopp. -Ru117 King.

STORY HOUR CLUB The aim of this club is: To lay the foundation of literary taste in children by acquainting them with stories of a higher type, stories full of appeal to-the child heart, yet cast in a form which has real literary merit; to give training in effective delivery of a short story; and to awaken and to intensify in- terest in almost every phase of study. During the first semester we practiced selecting and delivering our stories. The second part of our course consisted in making a series of stories, grouping them as to the month and the age of the pupil. In the month of November the club furnished a part in an assembly program, one member of the club telling a story and the rest of the members dramatizing it. The club, in co-operation with the Fancy Work club, had attractive stands and sold candy at the Ore pheum to help raise the necessary amount of money for the intra-class pictures. -Sl7irley Shara.

BOYS ADVANCED GLEE CLUB At the beginning of the school year :1 Boys Advanced Glee Club was organized for the purpose of further developing talented singers of the High School. The Boys Advanced Glee Club was first organized and was opened to any boy who desired vocal instruction and practice. But after following this method it was found that the classes were too large to be beneficial to everyone, and so two organ- izations were perfectedrr-a Beginning Glee club and an Advanced Glee club. Under the present plan there are twenty-three members in the Advanced Glee club and under the capable and skilled leadership of Superintendent E. L. Novotny, the boys have developed a musical ability and interest which is an asset and credit to any High School. -Cecil IVilllzoft Memberr-Howard Cook, Kenneth Campbell, Bill Cams, Wilbur Connell, Carl Chrisp, Cecil Dun- ovan, Newell Daniels, Boyd Desch, Irving Dickerson, Willard Engels, Murel Hensley, Allen King, Law- rence Kozal, Ralph Johnson, Leo Lear, Vincent McMahon, Kenneth Nielsen, Lloyd Solt, Lloyd Senk- bile, Cecil Willhoft. ; Page Sixty-Ieven OLD ROSE and GREEN273, , .

It was first organ- ized by Rev. Philip N. Shcdd last year, and he has ccntinucd to be our Hi-Y sponsor this year. The HLY club consists of members of the three upper classes who are elected into membership because of their character. The purpose of the Hi-Y as stated in the constitution is: wTo create, maintain, and extend, throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. The club meets during home-rccm pericd on Tuesdays, and although cur time is limited, we feel that it has been well spent. At the first of the year we studied a series of lessons entitled iiAbout Jesusih Recently we have taken up a valuable study of vocations. We also sponsored the State Older Boys, conference held here. The present oHicers of the Hi-Y are: Director, Rev. P. N. Shedd; faculty advisor, H. E. Ken- topp; president, Oscar Anderson; vice president, Victor Johnston; secretary-trcasurer, Charles Osterman.

OIL PAINTING As students, learned in many subjects, but utterly ignorant of oil painting, we started in September to learn this art under the direction of Miss Hazzard. At first we observed the autumn colors in nature and discussed them in class. Following these lessons we were shown how to tint photographs. After each member of the class had tinted one or two photographs, he was allowed to begin a picture. Our first efforts were not altogether in vain for our teacher was able to distinguish the tops of our pictures from the bottoms. As time moved on our paintings improved. One of the members of our group painted a landscape which was presented as a prize to Evelyn Johnson, the representative girl of 1927. Before the year is finished we expect to paint an original picture. -1Vilma Irwin.

Each group met twice each week. The boys were handicappcd very much this year, because they had no gymnasium to use during the cold weather. The first of the pericd the boys took turns leading the rest of the group in setting-up exercises, then they played such games as baseball, basketball, elementary football, track, relay races, soc- cer and ping pong. -Mr. Kentopp worked out a plan to give each boy a chance to enter any of the thir- teen track and field events and points vxexe gitm as he advanced in his certain event. This was the pentathlon. This practice helped the boys who went out for the regular C. C. H. S. track team. Strict army discipline was kept during the opening exercises. If anyone talked out of order he was compelled to run the gauntlet of belts. It is hoped that this class has produced more efficient and rapid thinking, better posture, better control of muscular action and good sportsmanship. eBayard Ellir. GAMES We organized immediately the first semester into a club with Virginia Guthrie president; Norma Osborne, vice president; Helen XVilch, secretary-treasurer. The officers the second semester were: Pres- ident, Norma Osborne; vice president, Evelyn Murphy; sccretary-treasurer, Marguerite Stevens. One of the mcst interesting pieces cf ontk me tcck up was the making of scrap books. Samples. of everything used in planning programs, parties, mixers and banquets were put into these. We also made a community scrap book containing samples of everything we had done this year. We studied games and learned how to play them correctly. For the Orpheum we sold hamburgers and coffee. The par- ties and entertainments we planned were declared huge successes by the hostesses and the guests. -Marguerite Stevem.

The first semester we took up the principles of effective advertising, reading a text which ex- plainedtand illustrated the essentials of a good advertisment, and the different methods of advertising. Some poster work was done, putting into use the principles gained from this book. The second semester was devoted mostly to sign-painting. This class has done advertising for different ehtertainments, both public and school, as part of their work. A school project taken up the second semester was the edit- ing of the uWlhds Wlho in C. C. H. S. After the material was compiled, it was mimeographed and bound into a book for school use. We believe that the knowledge gained from this class will help us if we enter business later, for advertising is a necessity in the business world. -ance: Lock.

Friday, January 28, the classes met and elected their boy and girl representatives. The following students were elected: Freshman---Thelma Olson and Stanley Bice; Sophomores-u-Gretchen Yungblut and Marion Ryan; Juniors----Stella Mohr and Dick Agnew; and Seniors----Evelyn Johnson and Kenneth Nielsen. Monday, announcements were made in each home-room by members of the annual staff concerning the Annual sales and the Orpheum. Wednesday Annual sales began. Two hundred votes were given for payment in full of $1.75 and 100 votes if only $1.00 was paid down. Sales were continued Thursday, and Friday another program was given. A't four o,clock Friday a parade . was held advertising the Orpheum. The candidates rode in the parade. The Orpheum program began at eight dclock. The first number was a selection by the High School orchestra. The Chamber of Commerce quartet followed. The quartet was composed of Rev. Ray S. True, Herbert Lock, T. B. King and Mr. Novotny. Warren Marsh entertained the audience with a whistling solo. A one- act play, uThe Mysterious WHIP, was given by Phyllis Smith, Evelyn Johnson and Mary Heaton, members of the Dramatic club. A minstrel, gThe Black and White Revuei was given by the GirlsT and Boys, Advanced Glee clubs. The pro- gram was a splendid success. After the program the crowd went down to the lower hall where candy booths, hamburger and ice cream sandwich stands were the main attractions. The fish pond and fortune telling also proved great successes. Every few minutes during the evening official announcements were made of the ' candidatesl standings. The contest lasted .until eleven dclock. At that time Evelyn Johnson was announced as therepresentative girl and Kenneth Nielsen the representative boy. Evelyn Johnson was presented with a very beautiful picture, painted by a member of the oil painting class, and Kenneth Nielsen was presented with a silver pocket comb. The total profit was $143.84 and we sincerely hope that the Seniors hext year will be as successful as we were.

THIRTY TXVENTY-NIN ERS On the morning of Scptemher 7, 1926, thirty eager Sophomores strolled into Room 26, where Miss Johnson had charge. Shortly after the beginning of the year'we organized and elected a president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer, who were to hold ofhce for a term of one month. We selected as a name for our home-room 330-29335 , which symbolizes the number of people and the year they grad- uate. Our colors are Steel Grey and Blue and our motto is iTB-sharp but never b-Hat. XVhen the sale of football tickets started, everyone was anxious to get a ticket and before the sale ended our room was 100 per cent. At the beginning of the year our home-room had an enrollment of thirty pupils, but later three of our members left: Frieda Saba, going to Burwell, Nebraska; Virginia Rose Peterson, to'Long Beach, Caiifomia; and Ila Dizney. to Big Springs, Nebraska.

We have a constitution which is a great help in making the Rendezvous a weli-organized homeroom. It prOe vides for a president, vice president, sectetary-tteasurer, and pep and activity committees. The first semester we gave programs in the assembly about every five weeks. After each of these programs we elrcted oFHcers. The second semester the constitution was amended and election now takes place the first Tuesday of each six weeks. The Rendezvous went .100 per cent in purchasing season football tickets and in subscribing for The Broadcaster . The cheer leaders for the football games and. rallies were members of the Rendezvous. As a Christmas gift to the Rendezvous its members purchased the picture iiMorning by Dupre. The Rendezvous won first place in the Christmas seal contest. The girl representative of the Junior class was a member of the Rendezvous and stood up next to the top in the election. The membership of the Rendezvous is wholly Juniors.

TRI S ROOM Now the history of the iiTri S room of the High School of the City of Central City, County of Merrick, State of Nebraska, is in this wise: In the beginning, September 10, 1926, there entered into this rocm thirty seekers of knowledge. Some came from the Tenth grade, scme from the Ninth, and some frcm other halls of instruction. This room meets every Tuesday and Friday. At this time different entertainment is furnished. Every six weeks we elect a president, vice president and someone to guard our empty treasury. . This room has put on two very successful programs, one of which was a radio program, which was considered one of the best programs given. We also went 100 per cent, after a great deal of strug- gling, in the Athletic Season Ticket sale. We came third in the Christmas seal drive. We feel that our room has been a successful one in many ways. Five of our members received football letters, and two received basketball letters. Miss Connell is our home-room teacher and she deserves a great deal of credit for our success. wairlcy Shara.

At six-thirty, the guests were escorted to the great crystal snow garden. Here, despite the warm weather, fluffy snow flakes fell in great abundance. The many varied colors of the northern lights played upon the glittering whiteness as each person found his place. Handsome Eskimo lads and pretty Eskimo maids from the Sophomore class served in a truly northern fashion. Eskimo igloos placed at intervals on the banquet tables formed the center pieces. Colorful favors of varied flowers lay at each plate. Nut cups were small northern sleds. Booklets in colors of the Aurora Borealis con- tained the place cards, menu, program, faculty, class officers and the toast list. Junior mothers prepared a very pleasing Arctic menu.

They paraded in double file to the High School where they marched through the aisles of the assembly and took their places on the south side. Loren Willhoft, president of the class of ,27, presented the banner to Harold Wilson, president of the class of ,28. Herbert Hansen played a trombone solo, accompanied at the piano by Evelyn Johnson. Fern Shelton gave a violin solo, accompanied by Alice Carraher. Then came the biggest part of the program, a'play, WThe Senior,,. This was presented by various members of the class, and portrayed the life of a Senior, who comes to the end of the year, and finds he is,continually nagged by Flunksa Page Seventy-nine uOLD ROSE and GREEN 127,, . Central City, Nebraska This play had a very good moral, iiThe best friends that a Senior has are Good Grades and Class Spirit? The program was brought to an end after each Senior marched upon the stage and dropped his treasure into the treasure chest, which was afterwards hidden to be dug up at some future date when the whole class will reassemble. SENIOR PLAY On Wednesday, May 18, the Senior class of 27 presented a thtee-act comedy- clrama, iiAdam and Evafi The play is very cleverly written and was carried out extremely well. Kings children, being weary of his continual bickering and scolding, plan to send him on a long trip. They ask Dr. Delamater to help. King, however, finds this out through Uncle Horace and arranges to go up the Amazon and leave his business manager, Adam Smith, to take care of his family regardless of their protestations. Smith has an idealistic conception of family life and he realizes that King is ruining his family by permitting them to be so extravagant. So he, Smith, under- takes to reform them. He announces that King has lost all of his money, which leaves them with only one alternative-w-work. When King returns, he finds his family established on a farm in New Jersey, raising chickens and bees and suc- ceeding very well. At a loss to understand the situation, he demands an explana- tion. Smith finally tells them that the story of the ruin was a fake. Everyone at 1 first is angry. Then they realize how much it has done for them.

NW J JOHN MATHIESON H. E. KENTOPP KENNETH NIELSEN Prexident Coach Treasurer ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Our Athletic Association deserves much credit this season for the good stand- ing we made in a financial way for our school. It left a good foundation for the next term. Our football team results were almost an even break, while the basketball games all made us money. Track will go through all right and leave a nest egg for next year. Mr. Kentopp is also deserving of a great deal of credit. The football team! won six out of eight games and the basketball team did very well for not having any gymnasium. We had the best track team this year that Central City has ever produced and won the Aurora, Nebraska Central college and Albion meets. John Nlathieson and Kenneth Nielsen, as officers of the Athletic Association, deserve credit for the help they gave and the hard work they put in, to make the year 1927-1928 the best athletic year in the history of Central City high school. c8?

They had little thought of being beaten by the Central City team, but after a few minutes they came to realize what a fighting team they were up against. Fairfield fought hard but was overcome by a score of 47 to 0. i ST. PAUL OCTOBER 8 St. Paul with lots of scrap and pride came down from the sandhills to defeat the Bison of C. C. H. S. The game was played with good sportsmanship and plenty of pep but St. Paul was unable to score and was defeated by a margin of 41 to 0. POLK OCTOBER 15----Re5erve The second team including almost all of next year,s material battled the Polk first team. Polk, having much more weight and experience, beat the reserves. But the reserves played a real game for the little experience they had. The score was 18 to O in favor of Polk. GENOA INDIANS OCTOBER 22 The Redskins from Genoa thought they wouldtry to capture the Bison. They held Central City for the first down but they weakenerli a little and Central got a touchdown. Genoa came'right back and scored a touchdown on the kick-off, but failed to kick point; at the end of the first half the score stood 6 to 7 for Centrai City. In the second half the Bison hit their stride and the game ended with Central City undefeated. Central City Bison 32; Genoa Indians 6. ' COLUMBUS NOVEMBER 2 Central City Bison went to Columbus to play the heavy weights. The Bison out-played the Columbus eleven throughout the first half but were unable to score. Woods, our big tackle, had to be taken out of the game with injuries. The third Quarter was played with fight and lots of pep. Columbus scored in the last minute i of the third quarter, and came back strong the fourth quarter and converted an inter- cepted pass and a Central fumble into two more touchdowns. The team fought desperately but took their first defeat of the season, 19 to O. AURORA NOVEMBER 11 After taking a defeat from Columbus, the Bison went on Armistice Day to take revenge on the Aurora eleven. Aurora took the bail straight down the field ' for a touchdown and kicked point. But the Bison got more strength than ever and tied the score at the end of the half, 7 to 7. XVe plunged three times more across the Aurora line and made score Aurora 7, Bison 27. Page Eighty-sevcn iiOLD ROSE and GREEN ,27,i Central City, Nebraska SCHUYLER NOVEMBER 13 Central City went to Schuyler the day after playing Aurora. The second team started the game. Schuyler scored on them the first quarter. The first team, knowing right away what they were up against, played hard but failed to gain much more ground than Schuyler. Central scored two touchdowns in the last eight min- utes of play, defeating Schuyler 13 to 7. YORK NOVEMBER 20 Central City had never, in history, beaten York and above all things wanted to give York plenty of fight. And they did. But York had Central out-weighed 27 pounds to a man. Martin, our ground-gainer, was taken out with injuries after the first minute of play. York had been beaten only once this year and that was by Havelock 14 to 13. They defeated the runners for state champions, Grand Island, 6 to 3. This shows what Central was up agaiiist. The Bison were defeated 29 to 7. OSCEOLA NOVEMBER 25 iOsceola invited the Bison to come over there en Turkey day. The field was muddy and it made hard going for both teams, neither team scoring the first half. The Bison scored two touchdowns in the second half and Osceola carried the ball over once by a complete pass in the last minute of play leaving the score 14 to 6, Central City. This ended the season for the team of 1926, Central City winning six out of eight games. This was as good a record as most of the schools of the state can show.
