Ninety students participated in the various music organ- izations. This year we were under the talented and able leadership of Miss Hazel Arpke, who came to us from David City. One of the highlights of our fall and early winter work was the presentation of the annual Christinal Vesper service which was held in the Presbyterian church. Among lighted tapers and decorations of pine and holly the hfty-voiced rohed choir presented the Christmas message through song, scriptural choral reading, and nar- ration. Five members of this group attended the State Music Clinic at Kearney and four attended the Albion Choral Clinic. For the first time in several years the Music De- partment presented an Operetta. itThe Mikado? by Gilbert and Sullivan, was heralded as a great success by all in attendance. The elimaxing event of our musical year was the District Music Contest where all groups were able to maintain the established record of pre- vious years. Mcrlyn Snlt and Marlene Crnsshans ab'.y served as accompanists for the various performances. 9. 469 ymmtmw.m!mm xwwg sf n. r t? f ' . - t g i ; W3. Mg? .43 mg; M , GIRLS7 CLEE CLUB Back Row: R.

ReguVar meetings were held on the hrst and third Mondays. In the fall new members were approved by the Cabinet and voted in by existing members. This year the group numbered 56. Activities during the year were collecting waste paper, entertaining Y-Teens at the Christmas party. and the annual Father-Son Banquet.

Christen- Y-Teens is the national giris, organization spon- sored by the Y.W.C.A., and meets every other Tues- day to carry out its purpose of creating, maintain- ing, and extending the high standards of Christian- ity throughout the school and community. Eighty girls constituted the membership boasted by the Y-Teens. They began the year with Presi- dent, Norma Gregg; Vice-President, Janet Camp- bell; Secretary, Gwen Smyers; Treasurer, Verna Baker, with Miss Helen Erickson as the helpful sponsor. The Y-Teen cabinet, composed of the offit eers, program chairmen and sponsor directed the activities held during the year.

To aid for- eign relief the girls sent clothing abroad and for- warded :1 package to CARE. At Christmas time the girls were busy selling holly and presenting jointly with the IIi-Y a one-act Christmas play. The events for February were Heart Sister Week, climaxed with a Valentine party, and Y-Teett week. The annual Mothcr-Daughter Banquet was held during March.

These are signi- fied by the Honor Society Pin which is the shape of a keystone, with the emblem of a torch upon it. In our school, to be qualifted to enter the Na- tional Honor Society, one must he a Junior or Sen- ior, and have scholarship ranging in the upper fourth of the classes. The Juniors selected are not permanent members, but must be chosen again the following year. The members of the National Honor Society are chosen by the faculty. The number chosen is approximately 15 per cent of the upper fourth in the Senior Class and 12 per cent of the upper fourth in the Junior Class. The selection of mem- bers, takes place once a year, this day is called HTapping Dayfi Those chosen are tapped by aium- ni Honor Society members. Our first major activity was promoting a charity drive on woolen clothing sent to a school in Roland. To raise money, the Society sponsored two school dances during January and February. Refreshments were sold by the members. The purpose of the Scholastic Banquet, held March 23, was for recogni- tion of those who were on the semester honor roll. To encourage better and broader reading in the student body, the Honor Society sponsored a hook table. The long awaited and by far the most mn- mentous activity was the famed wrapping Duyii ex- ercise at which time the new members of the Honor Society were chosen. The officers for the year were: Arnold Stcvens, President; Kent Newmyer, Vice-President; Ilevefy Larsen, Secretary; Betty Baumeister, Treasurer and RUSS Schutte was the Sponsor. o. w Making plans for the banquet. 1 f vi 'u '- n- a.- wa x t H43 x .-n-l ti o bal x :4 ix 7K7 14.1 :3 Back Row: J.

New- On the night of October 1, 1947, a group of hopeful students met at the high school assembly for the purpose of organizing a science club un- der the sponsorship of the new science teacher, H. Dean IIee. The club oilicers elected at this meet- ing for the year were: Edmund Elkjer, president; Warren Rasmussen, vice-president; Beverly Larsen, secretary; Elsie Palensky, treasurer. In the meet- ings held evegy other Wednesday, the members planned the affairs of the club, adopted a con- stitution, established membership, elected the cabi- net member, Wayne Marsh, and levied dues.

Through afliliation with the Science Clubs of America, the club receives membership certificates, helps with club activities and projects, and pins which signify membership in the SCA. The purpose of the club is to further the knowl- edge of science which will be helpful to the in- dividual, and to bring together students who share mutual interests. It is hoped that through this club and other similar organizations, more stu- dents will become interested in science and help to direct the ideas of our scientific age to the bet- terment of mankind.

Doris Mesner Kris Nelson The play itself was the story of a teen-age boy, Bob Parker, and of his patient family and friends. The Parkeris'hatl three children, Bob, Betty and 26 Dickie. One of the three children was constantly in trouble. Each of the Parker children had friends who helped to cause much of the trouble. Bob wanted to impress his girl, Joan Abernaker, with his skill as a magician. In doing so he angered her and her father, the school principal; and fur ally the P. T. A. ladies. A jacket which he had liborrowedll from Mr. Abemaker for the occasion was dyed bright yellow by the Parker maid. Mr. Ahernaker was on the verge of expelling Bob, and forbidding his children, Joan and Eddie, to see the Parkers. Matters were further complicated by Bobls ar- rest by a plain-clothcs mun, supposedly sent by the 200. It seems that the pets Bob had been keeping in the basement were valuable and had been re- ported missing. , After spending awhile in jail the whole matter was clarified by the arrival of Miss Bright, a zoo official. She explained the zoo merely wished to thank the person who had kept the escaped ani- mals. She would only take back the original pair of Chinchillas, all of the ollspring would belong to Bob. With the money that he would receive with the Chinchillas, Bob could pay for the damaged coat and be taken back into Mr. Abernakerls good graces. More important to Bob, however, was the fact that Joan had fergit'en him. ' rs Iv- s... x'i i.. s'u iw' VI x .

Jean Zwiehel, Edmund Elkjer The action was centered around the actions of 27 the Smith family. Pa Smith, publisher of the Midville Daily Chronicle, can he talked into almost anything by the members of his family. Ma is the real ruler of the family of four children. Sally the oldest is interested only in art and Dick, :1 commercial artist. Tony, at high school senior, is the schools champion football player. Buddie, the twelve-year-old brother, is determined to be- come a prize-fighter and his sister, Betty, is very willing to help him. In addition to the children there was Aunt Bella, Maxis sister, who was doing her best to nab Professor Slattery, a very absent-minded professor. The trouble was centered around Tony and the efforts of various colleges to enroll him as a stu- dent. They sent Julie Weston and Stewart Bran- don t0 Midvi'le to talk Tony out of his promise. Tony had promised to go to the college choice 0L his girl, Barbara Wetherby. -At the end of the play the matter was de- cided in a very satisfactory way.

Central came back in the third with Newmyer scoring on a running play. The remaining quarter was nip and tuck with neither team giving any ground. The Green and White continued its extra point record by scoring two for two on Newmyer-Madison passes. The Gibbon-Central City game saw both teams hitting pay-dirt several times in the evening. Cen- tral was off to a quick start and scored in the first few minutes on a reverse with Madison racing some 30 odd yards leaving a trail of bewildered Gibbonites behind him. Scholl recovered a Gibbon fumble for the second score in the first period. In the second period Gibbon tightened its de- fense and went over for two touchdowns leaving the score at half time 20 to 13 for Central. Both teams tallied in the third but Bruce Engel cinched the victory by bucking the line in the final period leaving the score 33-20. , '13 t f . N . m XS, smimkm 2-year Ietterman Right Tackle. Junior 1-year letterman Right Guard The Bison clipped the Bhle Jay,s wings for their first victory over Seward in several years. Madi- son was hot on reverses and the team had its plays working to perfection. Harvey Cordsen, tackle, can be given a lot of credit for this victory because of his great defensive play. The final score was 19-0. This win enabled the Bison to gain the tie for the football championship. Scoring three touchdowns and two extra points within a period of seven minutes, Central Cityis Bison brought their 1947 grid season to anjend November 17 in a de1ayed trouncing. of David City, 27-0.

Pre-State meet competition proved to be little opposition for the versatile Central Tracksters. The 0rd Invitational was an easy victory for the Green and White who scored 58 points. the nearest contender being Burwell with 23. The first and only meet held at Central was a iirun-awayii with Central scoring 80 points, out-to- taling the entire points scored by the other competi- tors. At the Central Five meet held at David City, the Bison won the laurels. Proving their skill in both track and field by scoring eight first places and numerous seconds and thirds, they totaled 80 points with the highly toted Seward team trailing in the runnepup place with 30 points. The District Meet at Keamey, the testing ground 03 CC for State competition, saw the Centrai City boys rcaily swing into high gear. Again the Bisonsi ver- satility in field and track and their ability to domi- nate events proved too much for the other Class B contenders. The boys returned with six first place inedais, two of which were new regional meet rec- ords. The Green and White, as in previous com- petition, nearly doubled the points of the nearest contender. The State Meet held on May 17 at the University of Nebraska coiiseum found the Central CitycTrack- sters starting off to what seemed to be a second State Championship. In the final day of compe- tition, however, an injury marred the outlook ?or victory. Despite this fact, Central managed a third place with Crete and Bayard leading the way. Throughout the track season as in basketball and football, the team upheld their record in sportsmanv ship and conduct as well as their track and field record. , .....q.l Li'v .. u...

The Saga qf the Forty-Niners Time: September 1945-May 1948 Place: Central City High School Actl The stage is set and as the curtain rises what do we see but the class of i119. But wait, what are they tloinggwhy it looks like Freshman initiation. In fact that is what it is. The class of ,49 which has now risen to the lofty heights of upperclassmen were, in 1945, going through the agnnies of initia- timt. Act II Surprising as it may seem, quite a few did sur- vive their Freshman year and went on to become Sophomores. They were getting used to the routine of High School and have settled down to some hard work. However ilAll work and no play makes Jack a dull boyii and the Sophomores werenlt the ones to forget it, so, they did trinity things hesitles study- ing. Some of the more outstanding being. class parties and serving for Jllnior-Senior Banquet. Act III In the fall of 1947 this class came back to old C.C.II.S. as Juniors. Before long they were in the midst of preparation for the Junior play, llA Case of Springtime? which was very successful. Although the Forty-niners donit have to give the Junior-Senior Banquet until spring, they are already busy thinking 11p ideas for this. one Of their biggest jnhs still ahead. Act IV A prophecy: After three busy years the class of ,49 will at last he at its zenith. They will he Sen- iors. And when they have graduated they will be long remembered because they were conscientious at their studies. full of fun and good examples to the other classes. 45 BANQUET l948 ' mT'MMW a a L: : Sikh??? fixigiggigfami'j .p: 'iffiypnggi? 3L. 3 4.
