Text from Pages 1 - 80 of the 1954 volume:

Ella THE SENIORS OF CENTRAL CITY HIGH SCHOOL, CENTRAL CITY, NEBRASKA, DEDICATE THIS YEARBOOK TO. . . . . . . YOUTH As the 1954 graduates are handed their diplomas, they will embark on the road of life ahead, wher- ever it may take them. And proceeding side by, side with youth along that road will be progress. With that eagerness to advance which onlyyouth can provide and with the wisdom which youth can obtain only from older generations, that road will lengthen. Each problem faced, whether or not the answer will prove to be the true one, will be a stepping-stone. Today, as youth leaves through graduation, the world of high school and its joys, it will be met by the seriousness of living in an age of atomic power. This book is dedicated to yough with the hope that the goal which they seek will be inspired by a higher Power than that which a scientist could provide. As youth moves, so shall the progress of the world. The youth of a nation are the trustees of pos- terity. Disraeli I W A F! 2 ixK' f ;V v V 3;?th v. ' f V 1 ?in V ,inzgsifr: m. a ?

Cfadd 0 955 Well it looks like the Junior's of 54 will be the Seniors of 55. They have done very well in C. C. H.S, for their first three years and it seems nothing will stop them from making it four. They have been very faithful about doing their share in the different organizations of high school such as Y-Teen, G.A.A. , Pep Club, Choir, Girls' Glee, and so forth. Neither have they fallen down in scholarship for they have carried their share of the honors roll. The two people to oversee this booming group were Jean Holmes, Home Economics'teacher and Robert Bede, Commercial instructor. The high lights of class activities were the hobo party held on Feb- ruary 5, the receiving of their class rings, and a very wonderful banquet. Here's wishing you all the luck in the coming year.

Cfaw 0 ,56 The Sophomore class of 1953-54 is really an up and coming group. The fifty five members of the class were led by class officers; Jean Roumpf, Carl Condon, David Ferris and Mary Belle Watkins. Mary Belle was chosen as treasurer after Rodney Berryman moved away. The Sophomores did well scholastically and, to mix play with work, were active in extra-curricular activities: sports, music, Hi-Y, Y-Teens, F. F,A, , etc. They had two parties and sponsored a dance after the district tournament. They also did a fine job of serving at the Junior-Senior banquet. All in all they are a real good class and C, C. H. S. is proud of them. 19 MR. N EIL FIRST ROW: Gary Bouwen, Verna Bolton, Charlene Haith, Mary Kart, Carol Crandell, Jean Harlow, Jerry Betts.

The Bison, through spirited defensive play, held the Swedes to a 7-0 half-time score, but in the last half the visitors added two touchdowns to avenge the 22-0 trimming suffered last year. In their first Central Ten conference tilt, the Bison failed to get started and fell to Fullerton, 26-0. The Warriors hard running and strong passing attack enabled them to score twice in each half and give Central its second defeat. The Bison then traveled to Ravenna where they racked up.a 30-0 margin. The. reserves played most of the game. High light of the game was excellent running by Roscoe. Returning to their home field again, the BiSOn trimmed the 0rd Chanticl'eers 19-6 in a. Central Ten contest. An end run by Roscoe in the- first quarter gave Central's first scoring. Malm scored the second tally from 30 yards out, making a 13-0 half-tirne score., A pass to Rodysill in the third quarter gave Central its final scoring. Outstanding on defense were Malm and Svitak. - Aftergetting off to a slow start the Bison crew came back in the second half with a story-book finish to trim the Albion Cardinals 20-14.

The Bison then roared back in the next period With two touch- downs, making the score 14-14. In the final minutes Peterson swiped a Cardinal pass and the Bison moved the ball to their own 32 yard line. 'With only five seconds remaining, Roscoe exploded through the line and rambled 68 yards to the game-winning tally just as the final gun sounded. Park and Hummel sparked the Bison on defense. The Bison cinched a second place spot in the Central Ten West Divi- sion Conference by tromping Aurora 19-7. Outstanding on defense were Willhoft and Larson. The next game took the Bison to Minden where they dropped their third game of the season 20-14. Although trailing 14-1341ate in the last quarter, the Whippets managed a Bison fumble and later went all the way to the game- Senior, tackle 2 year letterman All-confetence Height: 6'3 Weight: 185 Central City traveled to Seward for its next defeat of the season.

On a completely snow-covered gridiron, the Central City Bison drop- ped their final game of the 1953 football season to the David City Scouts. Every minute was played in constant snow-fall.

The high school days of forty nine graduating seniors came to a close on the evening of May 20, 1954. The climax came first with the Baccalaureate at which the Rev; Dawson Park spoke on the subject Man Against the Sky. Dean Frank Henzlik of the Teachers College, University of Nebraska, was the Commence- ment speaker. His subject was Today's Challenge to Youth. The following received Scholarships and Awards: Valedictorian, Betty Drake; Salutatorian, Jack Justice; Regents, Clay Crites; Alternate Regents, Martin Park and Kathleen Reeves; Honorable Mention, Jack Justice; State College, Doris Chesley; Kearney Music, Janet Ross; Nebraska Association of Church Colleges, Agnes Fry. Cfadd fg'OiogeC g1 I have just received a telephone call from the superintendent of Paddock Public Schools--Miss PHYLLIS BOMBERGER--te11ing me that the latest is sue of Life magazine was full of news about the Senior Class of '54. Let's see--here it is--Life magazine May 13, 1979. To my astonishment the picture on the cover is of the academy award winners. The actress of the year is JANETA YOSTAFU for her performance in Passion-less Salame. Also pictured is the male award winner JOEBERTO SCOTTWATER, Who won the award for his performance in High and Dry ; and their famous director, CORWINA ROSCOELINNI. I see a familiar face in Speaking of Pictures. MIKEL MCIL- NAY is displaying his new method of penmanship. At least I think that is what it says. Listen to this in Letters to the Editor. Dear Sirs: I. truly detested the flower arrangement of.your sweet peas, buttercups, and tiger lilies in your. last issue. It is a disgrace to us flower lovers. The Tiger lilies frighten my friends and me. ROBERT WILLIAM DESCH In politics the BOULTON investigation has uncovered new evi- dence incriminating Speaker of the House, GERALD JINDRA, and his secretary DORIS CHESLEY. It was revealed that they are working hand in hand with communist agent MELVA HALLVENECK. Here is something new. The KILLHAM TWINS have started an old maid's home. Their name has attrated many a customer--it is called Killham's Kennel of Kindness. , i Well, I'm glad to see RICHARD SVITAK Is Back In The Saddle Again after his last horse threw a rod. I Jolly JANET ROSS, New York cab driver, has been hauled into traffic court for the fifty-seventh time. Last time her eXcuse was Why don't the pedestrians walk where they belong instead of on the sidewalk. This time it was That's what the old lady gets for sitting on her porch. ' Diamond DALE BLACK and his moll Brazen BONNIE HAW- THORNE have been caught at Raecke's Rendezvous --run by the notorious BILL RAECKE. They were captured by Hopalong HUNT, King of the Cowbarn, and his deputy, Lopealong MEYER. Hunt stated that he and Lopealong had suspected Black for some time and finally caught him cheating at Old Maid. A suicide attempt by Mrs. Marvin Funk--the former BETTY DRAKE-4who was driven crazy twisting pretzels in RANKIN'S Pretzel factoryinwas stopped by two brave policewomen--AGNES FRY AND VELMA SNODGRASS-Lthey climedibarefoot to the top of Golden Gate Bridge to talk to Betty. ' The new attractions in the circus world are the twin fat ladies, CAROL and BEVERLY CRAMER. Each weighs 682 IIZ pounds, eats fifty pounds of food a day, and they still complain that they are hungry. i - 60 In the Sports section I see a picture of two lady death drivers-- Crashless CLARK and Woosh WHITNEY. They are making a hit with their souped up Crosleys, setting a new speed record of fifty miles per hour, upside down of course. Attention wrestling fans! The latest attractions in the wrestling world are Robust ROLAND MORROW, Knobby Knees NORMAN MARSH, Terrible TOOLEY The Tub, 'l and MARILYN The Masher MCHARGUE. They are being featured at Week's Roller Rink, run by SHIRLEY WEEKS. The crooning sensation of the Seventies TOM LUSCHEI has another hit recording entitled When The Tide Went Out I Found You. JACK Liberace RODYSILL has hit tin pan alley with his startling rendition of .Silent Night. A special from Paris shows the latest in Men's clothing. JOAN la KUHN, famous designer, has recently released her lace-trimmed pedal-pushers for men. Her model--JERRY WILLHOFT--is shown in a pair, Oriental Orange with Grassy Green lace around the knees. In Society Pages we note the wealthy, bashful, bachelor JOHN HUMMEL has made Life magazine with another of his lavish parties. Mr. Hummel's swimming party was a big success--using one of his smaller swimming pools, which covered twelve city blocks. He invited many of his high school friends. Pictured is the Miss RAMONA LAR- SON, the knitting Champion of '75--who won the contest by knitting a beautiful turtle-necked formal. After four years, she finally got up enough courage to weaiz it. Senator RUTH OHLMAN, who owns a small 20! 000, 000 acre ranch in northern Texas was also in attendance. Television star DONALD GILLAN, was guest of honor. If you ever care to tune in, his program is called Dew-Drop Don, the Friendly Farmer. Ping-Pong PARK, who is the champion table tennis player was also in attendance. Ping-Pong's motto is-- I love to play any- thing rough! . Medicine is still in the news. Dr. SHIRLEY ACKER, veterin- arian has announced a new scientific method for removing tonsils from Chickens. It will be explained inalaterissue if she everdiscovers it. . ' Dr. RONALD MORRISON, M. D. , has become famous by curing his patient, LORRAINE CEDAR, of the hiccoughs. After seventy two . days and twenty eight unsuccessful triesito stop them, Dr. Morrison got an idea for the cure from the cartoon strip Marry Worthless'x drawn by none other than JERALD ELLISON. The final pictures show Mr. and Mrs. WENDELL RAWLINGS-- the former Gayle Fossberg--with their small Arkansas farm family. When asked how many children they had, Mr. Rawlings replied Ah don' rightly know--at the last count they was twenty seven--of course that was yestiddy. The other picture is entitled Crites and Justice Are Caught. The distinguished Professors CLAYTON CRITES and JONATHON JUSTICE are caught in action trying to bribe the star of female basketball world into throwing a game. The star, KATHLEEN REEVES, had just signed a new contract with the Red heads. 61 atxlxrrvz- . I .2 u. Ax.
