They meet flteit leaaeks . . . Our Supeh is Mr. Cline, When things go right he's fine, When things get tough, he gets in a huff, And puts us back in line. Watson, his history he always knows, His executive ability he solemnly shows, The detention room is his work of art, In Hi-Y and Problems he has a great part. If in her class you chance to go, Youtll find that they do more than sew, Miss Erickson teaches them to cook, By actual experience and not by book. Take your talent to Mrs. Cline, The vocal test she gives is fine. If you should chance to hit High C, She will teach the melody. .

On September 2, fifty-nine green freshman entered the portals of Central City High School. The upperclassmen laughed up their sleeves at the be- wildered freshies wandering aimlessly through the halls. However, the worst was yet to come.-and come it did on that fateful ' day, October 20. Freshman initiation was here! It was nothing to see boys 1 , a v parading through the halls in dresses A . , while the girls were garbed in over- i ails. The climax came two days later at the initiation ceremony. Alum, horseradish, onion and garlic were among the things eaten by the victims. Limburger cheese also figured promin- ently into the ceremony.- -14L the Emma 05 initiation; . . A large part of the class participated in music this year, performing in instru- mental and vocal groups.

' The Iuniors have come successfully through eleven years of school and are beginning to consider how they're going to spend their last year at school following the footsteps left behind by the Seniors. In the extracurricular program the Juniors have taken an active part and have shown abilities in many lines of activity which add the seasoning to daily diet of lessons and study. Yet, they maintained :1 significant role in scholarship.

The CARDINALS were no match as the BISON were running in high gear. The scoring was well divided, two tallies being scored by Reserves, Engel and Hedges. The sparkling backfield led by Jones, Henk, and Campbell, were above par and crossed the CARDINAL good line four more times. As before, the CENTRAL CITY forward wall held the opponets to no serious threats. Coach MILLER'S boy's nemesis of all previous opponets, traveled across the Platte to meet AURORA, the first serious contender to Conference leader- ship. The BISON were stopped cold until the waning moments of the first half when Madison exploded through center for 60 yeards and a touchdown. This put the BISON in the lead which, true to form, was not relinquished.

Peter and Bill, college students of Elwood College are on their summer vacation. . 34 as theft. talent is aisflatlea. If ever you meet such mischievious fellows as Peter and Bill, watch out!! Peter has the habit of telling little white lies and Bill, his best pal,usuc111y helps him along. Peter's Aunt Sarah is leaving for CI tour of Europe, thinking her nephew, Peter, is going to study Latin under Dean Murglethore's nephew, Muggsy, an A student. Aunt Sarah thinks that the good-for-nothing Bill Bradshaw is far out of her sight. Unknown to Aunt Sarah, Peter has rented their house to Mrs. Clarkston, a social climber and her two daughters. Nadine and Peggy, in whom Peter and Bill are very interested. Peter gets the sudden impulse to transform himself, Bill and Muggsy into the hired help-Peter, as the butler, Bill as the gardener, Muggsy, not willingly, as the maid. Iasmine, Aunt Sarah's faithful servant, doesn't know that the hired help is fictitious and goes on with her daily work. To keep Jasmine from suspecting anything, Peter keeps telling her of grandpap Pepperdine's ghost. She believes him and later on the Clarkston's do too. Mrs. Clarkston wants her daughters to marry wealthy men, Banker Bolvier and Dupont Darby to which the girls object. Peter and Bill. in their disguise, do everything in their power to keep Dupont Darby and Banker Bolier from proposing. Muggsy was infatuated with Malvina Potts, who is editor of the Elwood Bugle. She thinks Muggsy has gone With Aunt Sarah and Peter to Europe. Things were in quite a mix-up ottcxir. To top things off besides having Bill running around as a ghost, Aunt Sarah returns unexpectedly home, But Peter saves the day by telling another little white lie. Thus he gets his fiancee, Nadine, and Bill in a like fashion gets Peggy. So things start back to normal again-and thus ended another Iunior Play.

During the year they gathered scrap paper and sold pencils. Some of the returns from these activities were given to the Red Cross and other charit-r able organizations. In January they sponsored the annual Father-Son Banquet which was well attended in spite of the inclement weather. Officers for the first semester were: Ed McIlnay, President; Frank Madison, Vice-Pres- ident; Merlyn Solt, Secretary; Don Little, Treas- urer. Ed McIlnay again was chosen President for the second semester. Kenneth Reyner was elected Vice-President, Don Reeves became Secretary and Gerald Hensley took over the Treasurer's duties. Mr. Watson, Murel Hensley and Agnar Anderson ably served as sponsors. -45h 00x? 05 chatacfefa twining. Back Row: N. Gregg, J. Eoff, N. Wagner, V..Baker, P. McIInay,, M. Higbee, L. Wilder, F.

The BISON opened their cage season 'by traveling to Grand Island early in December. The Islanders had too much height and scoring ability for the short but fcxst Central men. This team, undefeated in season and tournament play, won by the score of 56 to 23. In the Silver Creek gym, the fast improving BISONMEN, sailed through the Merrick County Tournament. Theyttrounced Silver Creek, Clerks, and Palmer consecutively. Their title of four years was never in doubt. In Central Five Conference play, the Miller boys beat Aurora, David City, cmd Fullerton, losing only to a strong Seward outfit. In their conference debut, the BISON found little opposition from the Huskies of Aurora, with Henk lead- ing the way with 18 points. h48h 0155 to a slow sfakf . . . 4 51 , REX v3 t i X, . A .

Newmyer was hot and bagged eleven points. In the next conference appearance the BISON bowed to a superior Seward five, by the score of 24 to 45. None of the Central boys could hit that evening and the height of the Bluejays gave them easy scoring. The Boys in Green clenched second place in the Central Five Conference by squeezing past a tall Fullerton crew. Hedges was high with 16 points, which paced the boys in a 35 to 29 victory. In non-conference play, they copped thirteen victories to four defeats.

The next night they ran up against an alert crew from Fullerton, but playing ture to form, the BISON again wallopped Fullerton 44 to 40. The final night, with an overflow ing'crowd from Central, the BISON playing one of their best games of the season, upset top seeded Ord. In this nerve racking game, the BISONMEN Came from behind to send Ord home with Cl defeat of 35 to 33. At the state tournament, the Central team wasn't able to put its potentiali- ties tosi'teffect against Seward. The Bluejays, showing the strength of the previous engagement, won by the score of 42 to 22. gslh. genial; Thespians Back Row: Gordon Reeves, Bob Henk, Carroll Johnson, Paul Nelson.

At right, you see members of the First Semester Honor Roll and Honorable Mention being entertained at C1 Scholastic Banquet on March 26, 1947. On April 10, 1946, in the High School Assembly Room, the Tapping Day - program of the Central City High School Chapter of the National Honor Society was held. die scholaks. 'From the highest third in scholarship, the High School Faculty elected fifteen per cent of the Senior Class as members of the National Honor Society and twelve per cent of the Junior Class as associate members. Last year the faculty decided to elect the twelve per cent from the Juniors so that it would be possible to have c more active organization this year. These Iuniors are not permanent members, however, unless they are re-elected during their Senior year. This year's tapping service took place during the second semester. The Tapping of the newly-elected Juniors and Seniors was performed by alumni members. When the new members had taken their places on' the stage, the sponsors presented each with a symbol of membership, 0: red rose. There are CI number of strict requirements to be fulfilled before a student can become a candidate for the honor of belonging to this society. The four main points among these requirements czre scholarship, leadership, service, and character. Besides sponsoring two school dances, entertaining members of the First Semester Honor Roll and Honorable Mention, and carrying on other activities that are expected from the National Honor Society, the members had a library project. Books that were more interesting than others in the library were separated and placed on c1 table in the assembly room. These books were for students who had leisure time in the library.
