For the weary warriors now flat-footed from tramping the streets soliciting advertising, without whose prodigious efforts YE FLAME would have died in embryo, praise. These business men and women of tomorrow upheld the temperamental gushes of the editorial staff by bringing in the cold, hard cash. The boys' advertising teams, paced by A. Wilson, G. Walker and T. Moore, included B. Moore, F. Auld, M. Westgate, J. Scott, D. Robb, J. Silverman, Matt Jordan, Bob Lennox. The girls' team, led by Delta Bell, Adelle Day, con- sisted of V. Campbell, M. McCulloch, J. Robinson, F. Body, B. Luddit, B. Collier, W. White, J. Anderson, S. Yule, E. Black. We thank our circulation staff which so efficiently has spread the glad tidings through the school. The staff headed by Keith Ansley, Allan Crossley and Don McEwen, has willingly given of their recesses to chase down those elusive Annual orders. Commendable indeed, was the industry of the dance committees for affording the school pleasure, the Annual funds in the two gala events of February 28th and March 20th. The committees were headed by Art Wilson, Keith Ansley and Alvin Hemstreet. Mr. Robertson, Mr. MacMurchy, Mr. Fyfe and Mr. Campbell, our Staff Advisors, by their splendid co-operation and useful instruc- tion, not only have guided this Annual to success in another year of economic depression and stringency in the world of business, but also by reason of their vast experience, have helped immeasurably to raise the standard of YE FLAME to a point never before reached in Centralls history. FRATERNITIES AND SORORITIES RATERNITIES and Sororities are long overdue in Central. Next year the Students' Council at its earliest convenience should fully investigate the possibilities and probability of the formation of such organizations. Fraternities and Sororities as run in the Universities and some of the High Schools of Canada lhave proven themselves to be the best builders of school spirit yet nown. The Students' Council, perhaps, will have to form and manage the associations for the first year. After that the associations will run themselves, with very few restrictions being placed upon them by their governing body, the Council. The membership will not be thrown open to all and sundry, but rather, only those who have done something worth while in the school will be admitted. These Associations will become the centre of all social activity in Central, they will enter into sports, dramatics, debating and many other fields and in general, if properly managed, will arouse in each Central student the urge to get out and do things so that he or she may qualify for membership in them. Fraternities and Sororities will form the basis for the formation of an association of the Alumni. They will cause their members to take away from Central not only the memory of the bleak classroom and the sometimes threatening, awe-inspiring teacher but also the memory of good times had and Cworthyj things Cof worthb ac- complished. 7
AN ALUMNUS ASSOCIATION ET IT BE resolved that henceforth the halls of Central swarm with alumnif' Alumni,', you ask, What kind of creatures are they? A thought- Oh yes, I probably missed that biology period. An alumnus, my friends, is a gracuate of Central. When two alumnus meet they form an alumni which works for their own enjoyment and for the benefit of Central. The alumnus association has not been an active one in Central. It is true that if you stood on tiptoe to read the inscription on an edifying portrait your eye may chance to catch a card which pro- claims it to be donated to Central by the alumni, otherwise you, perhaps, would have been ignorant of the existence of such an associa- tion. But the absence of an active alumni deprives Central of advant- ages, advantages to -the school, the alumni themselves, the students. When students leave Central they go out into the paths of the world Cso the story goeslg they become rich 5 they swell with phil- anthropy and pride on sight of the purple and the gold, they give generously to the school the means for purchasing pictures, books, banners and playgrounds. Central is missing all these things because she has no alumni. The alumni, too, would derive benefits and recompense for parting with their hard earned shekels. Theirs would be the privilege of reunion within the halls of Central yearly. They could meet and quaff sweet nectar and swap yarns about the moulders of our destinies when the school was young. The students, the lads yet to graduate, are cheated of enjoyment in the absence of the association. All alumni on in years like to show they can still step the college drag and since dancing isn't a game of solitaire the portals would be opened to admit all students. Truly many golden events and good times could be enjoyed by all. Seriously though, this is an exhortation to all fourth year students to put their noses to the wheel and their shoulders to the grindstone and graduate. Then may they come back en masse and form an alumnus that will perpetuate and whose deeds will eclipse those of the alumnus in contemporary schools. STUDENTS' PUBLICATION FUND This year's edition of YE FLAME will undoubtedly be produced at a profit. Ye Flames from time immemorial have been financial successes. Yet the money made by Central Publications is not used again for publishing purposes. Instead it is consolidated in the Students' Council fund, and the School Paper and Year Book are left each year, yea even each edition, to start anew. 8
