T rf%- ' SO-S y CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL TUX SIT” Published by the Students of Central High School Calgary, Alberta, Canada 50 2 PRINCIPAL’S FOREWORD I his year Central High School students publish the fiftieth volume of their yearbook. The Analecta. This year also marks the close of the sandstone building on 12th and 8th as a senior high school. It was on September 1st, 1908 that Central High School opened her doors to the stu¬ dents who transferred from Calgary ' s first high school, the now almost forgotten Sleepy Hollow . Almost immediately the Analecta came into being. The faded minutes book of the Literary Society records that at the meeting of November 20, 1908 the first Analecta was read to the students. It was not until several years later that Volume 1 was published. How long ago 1908 really was can be appreciated by the 1965 graduating class if it is recalled that the year after Central High School opened, the Frenchman, Louis Bleriot performed the incredible feat of flying across the English Channel in his areoplane, a non¬ stop flight of over thirty miles. Four years after Central opened, David Wark Griffith pro¬ duced The Birth of a Nation , the first picture of a quality to suggest that the motion pic¬ ture might some day displace other forms of theatre entertainment. The minutes of the early meetings of the Central High School Literary Society show that in common with many other high schools Centralites debated the question: Resolved that the Automobile will some day displace the horse as a means of transportation . The negative side nearly always won. In that distant era of 1908, there was no radio, no television, no sulfa drugs, no antibiotics, no automatic telephones, no long distance telephone lines, no color photogra¬ phy, and no memorial tablets hung in the main corridor at Central. That Central High School then as now instilled in her sons a sense of duty is attested by the fact that in World War 1 twenty-six former students gave their lives in action. In World War 11 seventy-one names were added to the list of Central ' s illustrious dead, and ex-Centralites won every Commonwealth decoration with the single exception of the Victoria Cross. IN ow in 1965 the old sandstone building is closing. Two years will elapse before the new Central, Central Memorial High School will open in 1967. If the Central Memorial student of 2024 can look back to 1967 and see that her record equals the record of the old sandstone Central between 1908 and 1965, then Calgarians may well be proud of this new school. For old sandstone Central ' s corridors have known the tread of the feet of future Rhodes Scholars, Cabinet Ministers, Supreme Court Judges, leaders in Medicine, Law and Business. lo the group of students headed by Editor, Cliff Prowse, who by their hard work have made the publication of the 50th Volume of Analecta possible, I offer my sincere congratul¬ ations on a job well done. To the members of the graduating class of 1965, old sandstone Central ' s last class, may I on behalf of the staff of Central, offer congratulations and best wishes. You go into a very different world from the world of 1908. A world where the aviator dreams not of crossing the English Channel but of the conquest of space, a world of automation, a world of rising nations in Africa, a world of the solving of the mystery of the living cell, a world where the human race faces the alternative of utter destruction or unimagined plenty and prosperity. It is a world of challenge, of opportunity, of great things remai ning to be done. It is a world for bright ' minds, courageous hearts and faith undimned. Like other sandstone Central classes back to 1908, you will not fail - you dare not fail. Goodbye, good luck. God bless you. O ' .

Over the years he has been an inspiration to thousands of Calgary youngsters during their high school years. He is well-loved by all those who have met him. Mr. John Winston Churchill was educated in Toronto, and was graduated from the University of Toronto with a Bachelor of Applied Science degree. He then attended Edmonton Normal School. In 1922, Mr. Churchill came to Central High School, and a tradition began. Forty-four years later, as the School ' s principal, what memories are outstanding in Mr. Churchill ' s mind? Mr. Churchill ' s career as a high school teacher began as a math teacher, and he later became head of the Science Department (Physics). In those years there were no Junior High Schools, and Grade 9 was included in the high school curriculum. There were few Grade 12 students, as entrance to university could be gained with a Junior Matriculation (Grade 11). Before the credit system started, the students would pass a grade at a time, rather than pa ss or fail each subject separately. Thus, each class would be taking the same courses, and it was the teaching staff who changed .classes, rather than the students. An all-round average of 40% was required for pro¬ motion in a grade. During the War Years, cadet corps were popular at Central. Students would be trained in marching and also in marksmanship. An outstanding member of the Central Corps was Dalton MacWilliams, who won the British Commonwealth Championship at Wimbley in 1912. This boy, who brought his school and country so much honor, later was killed in action during World War I. After the second World War, interest in such activities gradually died out. Athletics have always interested Mr. Churchill, and he has always been an encouragement to Central teams. Mr. Churchill himself coached many championship girls ' basketball teams. There was no boys ' basketball until World War 11, when basket¬ ball replaced hockey as a school sport. Central has won the football championship several times in the past. Tennis was once most popular at the school. Mr. Churchill recalls when the tennis courts at the West end of the school grounds would be occupied until well after six o ' clock nightly. Central holds a unique honor among Calgary Schools. In 1950-1951 she became the only school ever to capture all three of the Triple Crown - the senior basketball, football, and track championships. Central can also be duly proud of its academic record. The greatest academic honor to a school and its teachers is when a former student wins a Rhodes Scholarship. Central graduates have periodically been so honored, the latest recipient being Sheldon Throughout the long period that Mr. Churchill has been with Central, the successes have been innumerable. As Central students, we know that Mr. Churchill helped play a part in each one of these triumphs. Your dedication has been an aid to every Central student of 1965, as it has been to all since 1921 . All Central students wish you the best of happiness in the future. 5]E]E]E]E]G]G]E]E]E]E]E]G]G]G]E]E]E]E]E]S]B]E]E]E]E]B]E]E]E]G]B]Q]E]E]E]E]E]E]E ANALECTA ' 65 PRINCIPALS OF CENTRAL 1908 - 1910 Mr. A.C.

This, the Golden Anniversary edition, we have tried to make one of the best of all The Analectas. The Analecta was preceded by its forebearer, The Echo , which became active almost as soon as Central was founded in 1908. The school year 1910-1911 marked the first published issue of The Analecta. The grey, elaborately inscribed cover of the first Analecta bore the rallying call - Advance , a call that exemplifies the progressive spirit of Central that has made her so great. Since that issue a Yearbook has come out almost every year with the exception of the years of World War I. In a later portion of this book you will see some old and historic photographs of some of Central ' s first teams - photographs that will serve as a continuing reminder of the heritage that will largely disappear with the end of Central High School. Many things combine to form the heritage of any country or institution. Part of our heritage is attendi ng the same school as our parents; of having trophies from the year 1913; from being able to look back almost sixty years. But the greatness of a heritage depends on the effort that has been expended in building it. Central ' s heritage has been built by its teachers who have striven to keep academic standards high; students who have respected and honoured their school, and who have proven their patriotism to their country in two World Wars; and by the performance of this school, a small one which has been consistently above average in both athletics and academic activities. Although C.C.I., as we know her, will cease to exist next year, we can hope that some of her spirit and tradition can be instilled into the new Central Memorial High School. Unfortunately, the new school will lack what is perhaps Central ' s greatest tradition: not Bike Day, but Mr. Churchill. In the lower hall there is a picture of a very young gentleman named J. W. Churchill, the coach of the 1923 girls ' basketball team. For over forty years Mr. Churchill has taught physics and mathematics at Central; his speeches and pep talks have been treas¬ ured words at Central for many years - The team that won ' t be beat, can ' t be beat! This year he was appointed principal of Central. It is sad but perhaps appropriate that the students of the City of Calgary should lose both Mr. Church¬ ill and Central High School the same year. It is with this in mind that we, the staff of this Yearbook, representing the entire student body of the school, respectfully dedicate this, the Golden Anniversary Edition of The Analecta, to Mr. Churchill. To him we offer our deepest and most sincere thanks; and our best wishes for his happiness in the future. J5. Ps rus UL YEARBOOK IN PRODUCTION - A place for everything? ANALECTA ' 65 9 Mr. D. R.

They produced what Central has lacked for several years - an interesting and humorous paper packed with news about activities in the school and around Calgary. Much of the credit goes to Mr. Bayliss, whom they found a terrific sponsor . The Weeper was printed four times and several news-sheets were distributed. Sponsor: Editor: Ass ' t. Ed.

Bayliss Carol Burns Kerry Douglas Bill Severson Mark Lefroy Mar Lefro Mami Evans Cam ums en Douglas Richardsor Mr. Doug Biles, Debates Co-ordinator, Murray Sigler, Mr. Don Clogg, Canadian Union of Students ' Chairman, and Barrie Carnat. Central was represented by Barrie Carnat and Murray Sigler in an Inter-High School debating contest sponsored by the UAC Debating Society. Their topics were The Canadian Indian is better off than the American Negro , and Politics is too serious a business to be left to the intellectual . Since this was the first year Central entered, it was the first year Central won. They defeated St. Marys ' who had won the debate the two previous years, attributing their victory to their sense of logic and reason . Barry and Murray were presented with individual cups and a trophy. Central ' s entry on the television panel - Students World, made a fine si ing. Janette Brigden, Anne MacDonnell and Clif Prowse defeated teams from Marys ' Boys and Queen Elizabeth, but fell short of the number of points requii to qualify for the finals. The programme was sponsored by the Calgary Herald and CHCT-TV. CERCLE FRANCAIS 45 This year Central had two Cercle Fran5ais. groups: the Wednesday group sponsored by Miss Mercier and the Thursday group sponsored by Miss Barclay. Two grand Cercle meetings of all Calgary Cercles highlighted the year. A candy sale was held to raise money for scholarships to Laval and to the Banff School of Fine Arts. Nolly Corley won one of these scholarships to I ' Universite Laval a Quebec.

A WEEPER REPORTER WINS WINNER OF PEARL BORGAL MERIT TROPHY FOR BEST LITERARY WORK PRINTED IN CALGARY HIGH SCHOOL PAPERS. THE INTRUDER Mark Lefroy Fred Washington whistled through his flashing white teeth as he strode, hands in pockets, along elm-shaded Lincoln Avenue. The tight, excited bounce of his gait was all that belied his youth. For poverty ' s cruel hands had marked his large face and saddened his narrow eyes, making him look older than his twelve years. And it didn ' t help that he stood half a head taller than his con¬ temporaries. But hunger and the slums had ceased to exist for Fred when his dad had brought him and his four sisters to Maple Grove. The anguish of poverty had be¬ come only a small ache amidst the shaded avenues and spanking new houses which symbolized his new security. Fred fiddled with the zipper of his new jacket as he turned off Lincoln onto Maple Boulevard. An avenue of manicured elms led to the sprawling lawns of the mem¬ orial playground. Trying to identify the boys on the far side of the field, he raised his hand to shield his eyes from the sun. It struck him that it might be the pose of buccaneer of old, and he swaggered confidently, assum¬ ing as swashbuckling an air as his spidery limbs and over¬ sized head would permit. It didn ' t matter that he didn ' t know the boys. Hadn ' t he led his sandlot team to twenty-eight straight victories in the garbage strewn alleys of his old neighborhood? It hadn ' t mattered then that their ball was a formless bladder filched from someone ' s trashcan, or that every game was interrupted by chain-swinging, brawling youths reeking of alcohol. They had always managed to finish after the screams, the sirens, the sound of running feet had all died away. Now a soft expanse of lush grass was the playing field, and there were no chains, no sirens, no broken bottles. So Fred felt bolder and moved towards the tumb¬ ling, shrieking boys. At his hailing, several of the boys turned, their white faces bright with perspiration. One glanced at another, who nodded, and then was once more engulfed by the act¬ ion. F red strode nearer, and drew himself up to his full, scrawny height. Presently, the action halted, and several of the boys looked up, giving him a cold stare. Almost as a unit they moved toward him, and stopped. All but one. A bigger boy, his face puffy and damp, kept right on walking till he stood face to face with Fred. His mouth was full and stupid, his-eyes blank with ignorance. Fred didn ' t like him. Waddya want, kid? It was more of a challenge than a question. Ah come to play ball. Fred thought he had matched the other ' s tone. The fat boy turned to his mates and sig¬ naled. An ugly war-cry arose, and they attacked. Fred was stronger than his scrawny frame suggested, but there were a dozen or so against him. Screaming and thrashing, he fell to the ground, kicked out savagely, and scrambled away, bruised and hurt. They chased him off the field, then jeered and threw rocks. Wheezing, half crying, Fred sat under a tree and watched the boys jostle and laugh as they returned to the near-forgotten game. Why couldn ' t he be one of them? He should have known. He should have known because his mother had warned him. He should have known because his grandfather had been a slave, and Fred ' s skin was as black as tar.

Central ' s Cheerleaders finally managed to win the Calgary High School Cheer Contest in which twelve other high schools participated. The funds raised by the contest were used to finance our Korean orphan and to provide a band for the graduation. Much thanks is due to Donna Van Sant for her hard work and encouragement.

The team fought to a very respectable second place finish in the standings with a 7-4 win-loss record. At the end of the regular season the Junior Rams were tied with Western. They went on to defeat Western but lost to Viscount Bennett in the finals. The top scorer was Pete Jones, who just missed being the league high scorer.

In 1914, Dalton posed for this photo as the 16 year old Champion Cadet Rifle Shot of The British Empire, innocent and worrying more about the tribulations of Algebra and Geometry than about Kaiser Bill and his hob-nail storm troops. Three years later he was dead. War had taken a sixteen year old grinning kid and produced a nineteen year old fighting man—a man old enough to die, like many others, for his country and his ideals. The inscription reads: Calgary Collegiate Institute The 16-year-old Champion Cadet Rifle Shot of the British Empire, 1914. He has won: 9 cups, 1 shield, 4 rifles, 8 gold, 8 silver and 5 bronze medals, 2 watches, 4 badges besides certificates, spoons, knives and many of every team but one that has brought about 20 Championship trophies to Calgary. He is equally good at indoor or outdoor, with and has been to Englan times, and Ottawa twice rifle shooting. ice, Toronto three in connection with —April 21st, 1915. Many more Central boys shed their graduation gowns and donned the togs of war—a great many were maimed or killed. A new school is built in their honour, but their memory must live with us—the students and alumni of Old Central High.

Trudy Kamphuis 80.0 Pale frit Tonight marks the final chapter in the history of Central, and the final chapter of our high school years. Graduation is viewed with mixed feel¬ ings. Many greet it with relief because it means to them the end of twelve years of hard work and restrictions. Others look at it with trepidation because they now must leave the security of school life and start charting an entirely new course. To still others graduation from high school is just a stepping stone to higher education. But whatever the basic feeling, there is a sadness. To leave old friends and familiar places is always difficult, and there is also a sad¬ ness for the passing of a part of oneself. No longer children, we face the resp¬ onsibilities of adulthood, and sometimes it is hard to accept the passing of time which inevitably brings the day when we must make our own way in the world. This year, there is an added note of sadness for we are the final graduating class. For most people there exists some tangible link with the past. However, Central as we know it will live in memory only. But Central has given to us many memories, things which remain in our minds when more mom- entus events have faded: the initials carved in the sandstone, the lingering odor of sulphur from chemistry experiments, and the ominous rumblings from the pipes over the physics lab. As with most things constantly around us, the majority of us take Central High School forgranted, with very little thought to what she means or to her traditions. It is only when we are in danger of losing something that we realize what it means to us and the valuable part it has played in our lives. For more than fifty years Central has sent its students out into the world bolster¬ ed by a feeling that they have something solid behind them, a foundation of rock on which to build their lives. We can face the world knowing that we are better prepared for it because of our years at Central. Central ' s teachers have instilled in us an appreciation of our traditions and have enriched our lives with an understanding of our world and the peoples in ' it. Central has given us the basis, but we must not mistake the sign¬ posts for the destination. There is still a long way to go in a difficult world, before we become full and responsible citizens of our country. But if we can achieve some measure of success in our lives, then we shall prove our own worth and secure the immortality of Central. ANALECTA ' 65 _ Mr. Chairman, Honored Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen: 77 i tone? Mr. Chairman, Honored Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen: We are the last graduating class to ever emerge from the doors of Central High School: the end of a line of students that started over fifty-five years ago. Central has a tradition and a record unmatched by any other school in this city. For many of us Central is also a family tradition; older brothers and sisters and even our parents have preceded us here; younger brothers and sisters have started to follow us. . For us, our three years at Central have been profitable ones: in the classroom we have furthered our education and greatly increased our know¬ ledge under the guidance of our dedicated and often inspiring teachers; on the playing field. Central ' s teams have fought to thrilling victories over our rival Western, and in two of our years our basketball team won the city champion¬ ship. Through our classes and participation in extracurricular activities we have formed new friendships which will last all our lives. Central, the building, is dying. In another year nothing will remain on this site to tell anyone there was once a school here. It is true that a school in Lakeview will bear the name Central Memorial but it will not be a contin¬ uation of the Old Central, for Central as an institution will vanish after this year. Central, however, has something more valuable than its windswept, sandstone exterior, narrow corridors, and decrepit classrooms where ancient pipes hover uncertainly over the students ' heads. Central has a glorious reputation that has grown since its founding in 1908; a reputation built upon the quality of its education and its academic excellence. It was the famous Roman senator and orator, Cicero, who said: Nor, in truth, would the honours of illustrious men continue after death, if their own spirits did not make us preserve a longer remembrance of them. It is we, the graduates of Central that must be her spirit, for Centrals reputation is also based on the quality of the person who emerges from her doors. If we make use of the opportunities our experience at Central gave us, and if we nourish and develop the dreams and ambitions that have been nurtured at Central, then Central will live on. Central ' s motto is Lux Sit. Let there be Light. We must be the light of Central from now on. Through us must shine the glory of Centrals name. ANALECTA ' 65 78 CLOSING EXERCISES ' 65 On Wednesday, May 26th, 1965, Central bade farewell to the last of her graduating classes. Words of encouragement and of optimism somehow range of truth amidst the pathos and regret which gripped the some five hundred guests present. The Rev. Charles E. Bayley opened proceedings with the invocation. Chairman Clenn E. Holmes, Chairman of the Calgary School Board, followed with a brief and regretful note of the necessity for Central ' s demolition. He further spoke of graduation as the end of childhood and beginning of adult life. After musical interludes. Miss Janette Brigden lent solemnity and dignity to the occasion with a stirring valedictory. Mr. J. W. Churchill, introducing the first half of the graduating class, highlighted the evening with a moving address to the graduates, referring often to his forty-three years at Central Then followed selections by the band and chorus and a perceptive valedictory by Mr. Clifton Prowse. Mr. R. W. Pulleyblank added a much appreciated humorous note in his usual lofty manner, then introduced the second half of the graduating class. The hymn, Land of Our Birth , which has become tradition at C.C.I. graduations, was sung immediately before the address to the graduating students by Chief Justice C. C. McLaurin. Justice McLaurin reminisced on his three years at Central - 1909 to 1912. He introduced members of the class of ' 12 seated in the audience and described them as they were in their final year at Central. Further, he proposed that Central ' s site be used for a park and that a statue dedicated to the teaching pro¬ fession be erected in that park. This was met with great enthusiasm from the guests. God Save the Queen and a recessional march by the graduates closed the ceremony. Musical numbers under the able direction of Mr. W. J.
