16 The Analecta school CAPS During the past year the students have introduced a novelty, sehool jazz eaps. This Central High School fad is truly a blaze of color—royal colors for a royal school. Purple has always been a color of royalty and among the Oriental monarchs gold is the royal shade. This is indeed another long step towards the materialization of the ultimate end “School Spirit,” and although it was introduced rather late in the term we hope to have the idea in full swing once more next Sep¬ tember. They show who we are, where we come from and onr pride for C.C.I. It is a great relief to see the purple and gold colors on every hand and at the rugby and basketball games a greater spirit is created. We have noticed that within the last few months a greater interest has been taken in the games by the teachers, so perhaps some time in the future even they will come down from their high pinnacles and mingle with the common mob. I have a little jazz cap It sits upon my head Its colors are most brilliant And there isn’t green or red. There’s a patch of purple color And one of golden hue So when you see me coming Why just say howdy doo. At night when into bed I climb I take my jazz cap with me Cause it will keep my pompadour From getting awful mussy. I wore my cap to school one day A teacher didn’t like it And so he turned to me and said. Take off that cap or hike it. But lo! alas that was not all For he also gave away One thousand lines of literature I was to hand to him next day. I know he was green with envy ’Cause he hadn’t a cap like mine To hide that shiny bald spot Above the timber line. But still I have my jazz cap And its praise I’ll always sing Until perhaps I’ll get myself One of the Central rings.

18 The Analecta Stop, Look, Listen, but clear the way, Central High School have come to play, We’re wild, we’re woolly, but we’ll show you how. We’re from Collegiate, Rah, Rah, Rah. Rickety Rackety Russ, We’re not allowed to cuss, But nevertheless you must confess There’s nothing the matter with US-S-S-S-S-S. LOCOMOTIVE YELL C-E-N-T-R-A-L, C-E-N-T-R-A-L, C-E-N-T-R-A-L CENTRAL, CENTRAL, CENTRAL. CLASS PINS What has been said of the cap might also be applied to our rings and pins. Without a doubt the rings grace far prettier personages than do the caps, that is understood without a single contradiction. The caps must be politely doffed when entering a building but the dainty little finger girths have access to innumerable places without having to be removed. The rings and pins formed on a long octagonal shield bear the Central High monogram cleverly set out in purple and gold. The design was submitted among numerous by Walter G. Agnew and after a pro¬ longed and heated discussion at an early meeting of the Hi-Y Club, the present design was selected. Arrangements have been made with the jeweler to carry a stock in future of these pins and rings so that all students desiring such may obtain them without difficulty. Dear Mr. Editor: For the benefit of the reading public who have been fortunate enough not to hear our Rooters’ Club I would like to state we have one worthy of the name. Rut there’s absolutely no need for singing its praises as the Club has clearly shown it is quite capable of making it’s own noise— especially when they meet S.C.H.S. at a basketball game. However, these noble heroes have attended all basketball games, etc., and while C.C.I. vanquished on the floor the Rooters’ Club surely vanquished all noises. This Club is entirely composed of male voices under the competent leader¬ ship (if a loud voice and gestures count for anything) of Ralph Rogers. However, we’ll have to hand it to the Rooters’ Club for its intrepid enthusiasm and assistance it rendered (rendered is the only word) in reviving school spirit. We’ll surely need them to lift up their voices to help us banish dull care and to help us get rid of that tired feeling pre¬ valent around exam, times. “DEMASTHENES.”
