This ia Volume Twenty-one Published annually by the Arrow Board Central High School, Aberdeen, S. Dakota THE ARROV ’■ZT'V’ V Forward As you turn the pages of this, your 1940 Arrow, may your mind's eye view all the crowded days, weeks, and months of the past year from your first football game, through all the succeeding victories, to your last track meet. A f 4 's' %T t 1 r Af i f « ,4 « 14 I f■ Dedication With the echoes of an enthusiastic and appreciative student body’s lusty cheers for our Golden Eagle’s constant triumphs ringing in our ears, we dedicate this yearbook, the 1940 Arrow, to the athletic department of Central. 5 •N We are justly proud of our school - civic auditorium which joins Central and Washinqton buildinqs. This is Central’s spacious, well furnished library. We see the stacks, | the magazine rack, and the tables fWv for eight. From the stage, looking out on the audience, the camera shows you Cen-ral’s new, luxurious theatre where all our assemblies are held. The orchestra is making use of our bandroom, one of the most modernly equipped in the Northwest. It’s the art room and one we’re proud of, too. Extensive equipment and comfortable working space are only two of its assets.________ Central boasts one of the largest print shops in the state, a small section of which is seen above. Trying out some of their new machines are these students of our very well equipped wood shop. (1) That worthy school board member, Dr. J. 0. Krau shaar, lays down his newspaper, to affix his signature to a scrap of paper under the watchful lens of our camera. (2) Frank Wyttenbach, clerk of the Aberdeen schools, with his proverbial cigar, looks over the apparatus used in landscaping the grounds between Central and Washington. (3) We take it it’s a speaking tube and know the man doing the talking is C. H. Anderson, of the Aberdeen Supply Company. (4) E. L. Feddern, of the C. M. St. P. Railway, listens to the voice on the other end of the wire and nervously taps a Schense tag. (5) The man with the funny thing in his hand is Dr. J. D. Alway, a prominent Aberdonian. (6) 0. M. Tiffany, president of the school board, is caught standing behind some of the modern equipment in the Tiffany Laundry. Superintendent C. J. Daltliorp 16 Principal R. R.

(2) Julianne Trish assures us that she likes her work in Central’s library. (3) Cecil Monroe tries not too look too satisfied with himself posing with the 1939 Relay Queens. (4) “Yes,” says Merten Hasse, “it’s a serious business.” (5) Ben Miller is busy at work on the electrical score board. (6) Delores Ann Wood thinks this Latin is no laughing matter despite the amused looks of her pupils. (7) A member of the junior play receives some advice from Helen Courtney. (8) Hilmar Wahl is enjoying this chemistry experiment. (9) Out at Simmons Field we find Arthur Schwuchow watching his band go through marching maneuvers. (10) Ethelyn Bailey demonstrates her efficiency at the typewriter. A 6 -v« r-« 'MmfU't i, . . . (1) Rosa Lambert looks through an art magazine as the photographer finds her. (2) Mary Kocher listens to one of her speech students from her vantage point in the back of the room. (3) Roy Davidson says, “Yes, we had a pretty good season; we’re satisfied.’’ (4) “Does everyone understand this?” asks Janette Greenshields hopefully. (5) “I’m just waiting for 4:30,” says Hazel Ulrey. (6) It’s a red pencil Barbara Anderson has in her hand. (7) Mary Alice Stokes plys the adding machine for the benefit of the photographer. (8) What’s in that purse, Alice Eighme? Must be something valuable for you look all ready to defend it and yourself. (9) “Well,” says Beryl DeHaven happily, “here is something good for Word Craft.” (10) Miss Clara Flemington discusses home experiences with a student Sideline Qoaeltuuf. . . . The Student Council of Central High School is composed of one member from each junior and senior homeroom, four representatives of the sophomore class, the three class presidents, and representatives of the Keystone Society, the Monitor Board, and the Courtesy League. The first semester activity which held the attention of the Council was the preparations for Pageant Day. This finished, the Council has time out until referee Winner blows the whistle for the second half. Next is the duty of the Council to make plans for the Eagleian Follies. Acts must be registered, tickets sold, stage equipment prepared, an advertising assembly presented, and many other things. The members have numerous minor activities which keep them occupied the remaining part of the year. Officers of the Council are LeMar Palmer, president; James Kotsakos, vice-president; and Patricia Dyer, secretary. President LeMar Palmer, at the wheel, steers the Council. 22 Pesudiyed. . . . Instead of hiring referees and umpires to carry on our little game of life, we students govern ourselves all the way from charging to convicting to punishing a wrong do’er. The monitor board, consisting of 25 monitors, is led by Dick Kinder, chief monitor, and Mr. Wahl, faculty adviser. The students t h e m s e 1 ves keep watch at various vantage points in the halls. When a student is found disobeying any rule he receives a slip. Then he appears in court and is allowed a lawyer and a fair trial. If convicted, he is given so many work hours, differing according to the “crimes” committed. Just as penalties on the athletic field are given and received ‘with a grain of salt’ so do the students give and 2 take when it comes to rules at LJ Central. (1) 8mm: student court ; purpose, a miscreant to be judycd : characters: Murphy. Morton. Mantel. Fiachbarh. and La Vine. (2) Whatever the joke was it certainly caused the face, of Tiffany. Spencer.

Some 300 strong, the seniors started their last year at Central by electing Don Houge president His helpers were Winifred Marlink, Bill Gorder, Patty Burke, and Ruth Blethen. Under their guidance an all school party was held, a party at which the athletically minded held sway with much roller-skating, bowling, and such activities. The second semester found Oren Davies leading the class with Stan Schmidt, Jean Irving, and Bob Liebenow as assistants. (1) The Merriwell of the school, Stan Schmidt, Oren Davies, a versatile person, Jean Irving, lovely to look at and brainy, too, and Bob Liebenow, a general all-around good fellow, were second semester class officers. (2) Handsome Houge, the perfect Nordic type, gives us a beautiful smile. (3) Bill Gorder looks at Patty Burke a bit skeptically. (4) Winnie Marlink shows us why she is an A student.

Here are two examples of it. Grace McReague, oblivious of all extraneous matter, concentrates on Arrow copy; Jack Perkins, hat and all, just concentrates. (2) Well, Mr. Murphy, what’s all this? Oh, the Leap Year dance! Sorry, girls, he’s all dated up. (3) And here’s our sweet John (Priscilla) Lindboe getting all bundled up so he won’t freeze his little ears-ies. Have you a mirror in your locker, Prissy? (4) Bill Hopp, Barbara Norris, and Ruth Schwanke think this is an interesting experiment but Bill Mayer always has time for the photographers. (5) David Robertson awaits the signal for dimming the lights. (6) It’s lunch time for these A Cappella songsters. Barbara Norris, Winifred Marlink, Dorothy Glorvick, Dorothy Calene, and Lois Clocksin react for the cameraman.

The completion of the 1939 gridiron campaign found Central’s Golden Eagles sitting on top of the championship throne for die second time in three years. Taking the chalk striped field eight times. Coach Antil and his squad turned in six triumphs, one tie, and received a lone defeat for their year’s work. The blue shirted boys opened their season with track like victories over the Wahpeton Wops and the Pierre Governors. The former were on the small end of a 64-0 shellacking while the latter were on the zero end of a 55-0 licking. The Antilmen met a real test in the Pageant Day Game against Sioux City’s Black Raiders. Tommy Donlan, veteran fullback, presented the Eagles with one touchdown but Sioux City reached pay dirt four times and the Eagles lost their first ’39 game 28-6. With the line rising to great heights the Eagles opened the conference season with a 21-14 victory over Mitchell at the Kernel’s home stadium. The Eagles were led by Schmidt and Donlan but the forward wall received the glory for stopping a Kernel march on the two yard line. Once again the bearers of the blue and gold colors took to the road; this time to Sioux Falls. The visitors never gave the Warriors a chance and collected a 12-0 victory. Led by Jack Davidson and featuring a lot of razzle dazzle, the Yankton Bucks gave the locals quite a scare. However, the Eagles thrwarted the guests attack and handed the Bucks their first defeat, 12-0. Two terrific battles were the results of the Aberdeen boys’ contests with Watertown and Huron. The conference champions eked out a 7-6 triumph over the Arrows but the best their efforts brought was a 7-7 tie with the boys from Tiger town. 79 yea, leattt . . .

With Mylo Jackson serving his second year as coach, Central’s 1939 Junior gridiron eleven compiled a record of three losses, three ties, but not a victory. The Jacksonmen featured a hard charging line and a fast, shifty backfield hut simply could not find the scoring punch that could have turned those deadlocks into triumphs. Coach Jackson and his squad journeyed to the den of the Groton Tigers for the opening game of their ’39 campaign. However, the Tigers were in a vicious mood and a flurry of touchdowns saw them overwhelm their visitors, 31-0. Seeking revenge for their last week’s poor showing the blue shirted boys played a heavier Ellen dale eleven to a 0-0 tie. Both squads muffed scoring opportunities but home fans were treated to a swell battle. Pageant Day’s play seemed to be for nothing as the Jackson coached athletes were held to a 6-6 draw by the sophomores. Farmer, junior fullback, scored on an intercepted pass hut Faulker, soph end, took an aerial from Eaton for the game tying tally. Once more taking to the road, the representative of Central’s junior class met their second defeat, this time at the hands of Eureka, 24-6. The game was a hard one to lose as many scoring chances were lost. Determined to make their homecoming a success, a fighting Britton team defeated the Aberdeen eleven, 14-7. The hosts’ gala celebration might have been veiy sad if the visitors had capitalized on the well known “breaks.” Another game was played to practically no avail as the Bowdle Cossacks tied a Central eleven 6-6 in the juniors' final appearance.

Central’s first year entrants were under the direction of Russ Osborne, veteran coach, and featured a better squad than their record shows. The gold-shirted warriors made their ’39 opening by journeying to Britton for a 0-0 deadlock. The Braves were highly favored and the sophs received a lot of credit by holding them to a tie. Despite the fact that Lester Hughes scored for the local squad, the Bowdle Cossacks proved to be too tough and the Osborne eleven went down, 20-7, for their first defeat. Another fine performance was turned in by the sophs when they held Redfield to a 0-0 tie, this time against the juniors. The sophs upper classmen scored first, but a long aerial, Eaton to Fulker, tied the game at 6-6, late in the fourth period. The youngest members of Central High School’s football entries suffered a defeat at the hands of a fighting Eureka gridiron squad, 12-0. It was just a case of the Blue and Gold not being able to cope with the superior Eureka power and the Hub City eleven suffered their season’s second loss. Playing their best football of the year the local sophs completely swamped a Red-field team in a return contest, 18-0. Big “Booge” Nicholas hit the line for two tallies and Lester Hughes slid off tackle for the third. In the final game of the year the Central representatives rose to great heights to hold a powerful Groton team to a single touchdown but still lost, 6-0. Had the Blue and Gold athletes not lacked a scoring punch a dismal sophomore season could have been turned into a glorious affair. 83 SaiTftgjyTA'S? Ho,wto’ ■ ■—• w-' - H—• Mo««kWr: Stand 'Up , 04f r Tito Gltma 7a yon . . . With five lettermen returning from the ’39 championship team. Central’s Golden Eagles once again completed a successful campaign under the leadership of Coach Cy Holgate. The representatives of Central High completed their customary pre-season games with a record of two wins and a loss. The St. Paul Mechanic Arts’ five defeated the Holgatemen in their opener 22-20, but the boys rose to great heights the following week to hand Minneapolis Central a 41-29 beating and then followed by turning back a game Pierre quint 30-11. The Mitchell Kernels fell before the Eagle men 21-14 in the conference opener, and the Brookings’ Bobcats also failed to halt the Eagle attack and were forced to take a 31-21 shellacking. However, the locals’ winning habits were halted when they journeyed to Watertown to come out on the short end of an 18-15 score. Stan Schmidt’s basket in the last seven seconds gave the varsity a 31-30 win over the Yankton Bucks. The squad next took a road trip that resulted in a 30-27 setback at the hands of the Sioux Falls Warriors; but the following night they scored a 25-23 win over the Madison Bulldogs. Revenge is sweet and the Eagles received their share by taking the Watertown Arrows in a return contest 36-21. The next week the Flandreau Indians camped in town and before they left, they forced the Central boys to an overtime 30-28 triumph. Our old rivals, the Huron Tigers, moved into our nest and tasted a 25-22 defeat in one of the better games of the year. The Eagles made it two in a row over the boys from Tiger Town by defeating the Deklotz-men 31-30 on their own floor. The following night the Mitchell Kernels took advantage of the Eagles’ fatigue and evened things up with a 24-21 win over the locals. 84 Qua fyo i foe SuAe. ta Meet be eut . . .

In his first season as coach of the junior cage hopefuls, Mylo Jackson definitely has established himself as a basketball instructor by developing his junior squad into one of the best Central has ever produced. The junior squad launched its campaign by journeying to Ellendale for the season opener. The local squad commanded a 12-4 lead at the half time but were very fortunate to escape with a 15-14 triumph at the end of the game. The blue shirted lads participated in one of their season’s many thrillers by handing Britton a 26-25 setback in an overtime. Cuard Dick Bosley dropped in the game-winning free throw. Perhaps the finest triumph of the season occurred in the juniors' 29-27 triumph over the under-classmen, the sophomores. In what proved to be their third “thriller” in as many games the juniors checked a last quarter soph rally. Once again taking to the road. Coach Jackson and his men defeated Groton 24-23 in their seasonal highlight. This made the fourth game won by a margin of five points. Turning in a convincing victory, the juniors rode to glory, winning over Warner 35-25. The entire Hub City squad was used in the first show of junior scoring power. After winning three games by one point, the future Eagle stars lost their first game by the same margin. A free throw by Warner in the last 20 seconds of plav proved to be too much and the Central five suffered their first loss. By really turning on the well known heat in the last cantos, the Groton Tigers handed the juniors their second straight defeat. The juniors’ defense cracked wide open in the last half and allowed Dodge, classy visiting forward, to collect a good share of the 19 points he rang up. 87 QUfAt, gopJu! QiyJtt! QufUt! QiyJtt! . . . Hum Osborne, soph coach, once again developed an outstanding squad that received praise from all basketball followers. The sophomores opened their season with a 21-15 win over West-port. Coach Osborne used three complete teams in a fairly easy win. The following week the sophs also scored a 20-15 victory over Barnard. The scoring was evenly divided and the sophs were rapidly rounding defeat. The mighty Hecla Rockets invaded the sophs’ home and took a 38-30 victory over the sophs. The Osborne coached squad led at the half but could not cope with the visitors’ last period attack. Still on the losing foot, the sophs lost to the juniors 29-27 in a fiercely fought game. A Columbia five fell before the sophs 27-24 for the Central fives’ first win in three starts. Turning in a brilliant performance the sophs succeeded in knocking off Hecla 31-28 in the conference tourney. The sophs reached the finals by handing a 35-33 set-back to Westport. The third defeat of the campaign was handed to the Blue and Gold five when Hecla again defeated them, this time to the tune of 41-20. Hecla’s giant center, Meyer, proved to be far too much for the Hub City entry by scoring 20 points. In a preliminary to a varsity game, the blue-shirted lads turned in a brilliant performance to defeat the Leola Pirates 38-26. The sophs were paced by forwards Eaton and Quinn, and Coach Osborne used his entire squad. The following week the Central five journeyed to Leola to make it two straight victories over the Pirates. The local squad turned in one of their best showings in rolling up a 40-26 decision. The understudies of the Feathered Flock ended their brilliant season with a 45-28 win over Bath. Nine of Coach Osborne’s twelve men broke into the scoring column in the convincing victory. 88 Speed 9t Up . . . Sneak 1'Uat 'Iape . . . Despite the fact that only six lettermen were available. Central’s Golden Eagle tracksters completed a good season under the direction of Leslie Rathman, veteran coach. The Blue and Gold representatives so completely dominated the running of warm-up affairs at Pierre and Mobridge that the opposition scarcely had a chance. The Eagles counted heavily in all events and more than doubled the total points of their rivals. The Rathman coached athletes also gave a good account of themselves in the Aberdeen Relays, the Moorhead, Minnesota, invitational attraction, and the regional meet at Milbank. Particularly outstanding was the out-of-state meet at Moorhead in which the local cinder men succeeded in breaking an aged sprint medley record. However, the representatives of Central met tougher competition in state and conference meets and were forced to receive an eighth in the former and a fourth in the latter. The year was completed with the awarding of letters to nineteen boys, eleven of whom returned for the 1940 campaign. The eighteen men who earned their laurels during the 1939 track season are as follows: Denny Ballou, A1 Harder, Don Hansen, sprints; George Scofield, Harry Amundrud, Don Porter, and Bob Roehr, middle distances; Jim Palmer and Ignatius Hartung, distances; Tommy Donlan, and Dick Pepper, hurdles; Eddie Carlsen, Pete Becker, and Keith Edwards, pole vault; Dick Watson, Pat Hayman, and Warner Stelzmiller, weights; and Lowell Montgomery and Lyle Osterman, high jumpers.

The band was designated by Governor Bushfield to represent South Dakota at the celebration in Winnipeg, Canada, last spring, held in honor of King George and Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain. This five day trip is one which the band members will never forget. A special train was chartered and the greatest hospitality was extended them. Their welcome home was no less joyously rendered than that afforded a victorious track squad. The band consisted of ninety members, directed by Mr. Arthur Schwuchow. New uniforms were rovided through the sale of the Easter Monday tickets. provid Frolic Central’s band has been truly a great asset to the school, unselfishly giving its all, in the true spirit of the athlete, for a better Central High. 107 GkamfU JUm Vocal Glt uti. . . Sport is not the onlv extra curricular activity at Central that deserves honorable mention. Every year the music department has been one of the top ranking organizations in the state. The boys’ and girls’ glee club is one of the few organizations that offers each student an opportunity for participating in musical work. The aim of the glee club is to develop character, poise, leadership, and culture, traits which are accomplished through music appreciation. The boys and girls are divided into separate groups which meet on alternate days throughout the week; joint rehearsals are held on Wednesdays. Much of the success and recognition received by the glee club can be credited to their capable instructor, Miss Reva Russell. Just as the members of the sophomore and junior football squads are looking forward to a berth on the varsity, so all glee clubbers have an a cappella choir robe in mind as they sing their best for Central. 108 sjn 'looms Margaret Swqniorv ■ DonaM Robert Li oevr McC 1940 Uorrt Y)ho (1) A weary Editor!

Put 9t Out . . . JhY'.-, • 7 4c Smallt ottit off the 'IfeaA. . . . A victory song should be sung in honor of the 1938 Word Craft. At the Northern Interscholastic Press Association it not only was awarded the title of best literary magazine but took sweep-stake honors in all competition. This is the fourth year that Word Craft, a truly student magazine, has been published and every year it has received higher acclaim. This steadily increasing advancement is undoubtedly due to the efficiency of the Word Craft board and its adviser, Miss Beryl De Haven. The board is led by Ruth Blethen, editor; Jack Perkins, assistant editor; and Bob Barber, business manager. The Word Craft was enclosed in a Christmas cover, attractively designed by the students of the art department aided by Miss Rosa Lambert. The magazine was dedicated to Frank L. Baum, the author of the famous Wizard of Oz stories. He was once a resident of Aberdeen. (1) This is a truly candid shot of the editor-in-chief, Roth Blethen. (2) It looks as if a weighty problem is about to be settled. Swift is ready to write the verdict, bat Johnson, Hall, Gerber, and Cacavas are still debating. (2) Although Barber and Blethen are working, we doubt that Perkins, the lad under the table, has the same purpose. (4) Horan is enjoyinr him-self at the telephone, while Toe ten rod and Campbell confer with their editor. A«e GetiUcd BjuviUmeH. . . . For four consecutive seasons the Courtesy League has striven to give Central a top rating in the fine arts of manners. All of us see the rah, rah slogans on the classroom boards which help to keep us in the vicinity of “pay dirt” in regard to those little ‘‘Emily Posts.” The Courtesy League was originated by Carl Gruhn in 1935 and is now being carried out under the supervision of Clifford Roloff. It has received nation wide recognition and many other schools throughout the country have asked for information in regard to the formation of Courtesy Leagues of their own.. A conduct rating system is carried out by which home room courtiers grade students on their actions in home room, after which the cards are checked by their home room teachers. If the student maintains an average grade of “one” throughout his three years at Central, he receives a certificate of courtesy. The Courtesy League is efficiently managed through the efforts of Winifred Marlink, president of the organization; James Kotsakos, vice-president; and Jeanne Gunderson, secretary. Besides these officers, are the many courtiers who put forth the brain comparable to the brawn of the athletic stars to make the Courtesy League a success. (1) The Courtesy League rating cards seem to hold the interest of Betty Nelson, Norma Bartz, Bob Trigg, Fannie Dervin, Ruth Schwanke, and James Kotsakos. (2) The advisory board is caught by our camera at an unexpected moment. They are, back row, left to right: Gloria Swift, Joe Schwan, Winifred Marlink, and June Throckmorton; front row, left to right: Barbara Norris, Beverly Weisbecker, and Margaret Swanson. (3) Winifred Marlink, president, writes a saying on the board as our adviser, Mr. Roloff, instructs her. Jhe Blue. a uH Qold atteodlUn i. the teu i . . .

(2) In charge of the induction ceremony, Roers, Stock, Morley, Robertson and Kinder formally initiate the new members into the Hi-Y club. (3) At the close of each meeting the club members gather in their “friendship circle” to give their offerings of prayer. (4) In the course of club events Mr. Roloff leads a group discussion, eagerly listened to by officers Stock, Morley, Roers, and the rest of the members. (5) Snapped at the impressive induction ceremony are Bush, Douglas, Blood, Breen, Hanson, Kandaras, Anderson, Dilly, Moulton, Preston, and Kuckelburg. We Ate Dolly . . . The Hi-Y Club, one of Central’s most outstanding character building organizations, is enjoying one of its most successful years. The club holds meetings every Monday at 7:15 in the Y. M. C. A. building. Highlights during the past year were a colorful induction ceremony for new members, a Hallowe’en party with the Hi-Tri, educational movies, talks by members and outside speakers, splash parties, weiner roasts, dinners, a play, and group discussions. At Christmas time the boys entered into the Yuletide spirit by contributing food to Christmas baskets. Officers of the club for the first semester were Raymond Morley, president; Dick Stock, vice-president; and Howard Roers, secretary-treasurer. The faculty adviser is Mr. Roloff, history instructor at Central. This organization may be set before every student as an example of good fellowship, development of spiritual and social character, and ambition “to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character.” Gesibiah. etcaA jHecUfueAL . . . (1) Bill Mantel and his partner, Wallace LaVine, debate against members of the class; their opponents are Eleanor Rosen and Roberta Van Beek.

( ) Clown make-up is administered by Kay Roberts. Dorothy Sloan, and Margaret Guhin to several undistinguishable drama students. 2 iama o+t the ClaM ioam QnidU ian After a touchdown a football player strives to “put the ball between the uprights.” So the members of the drama class strive to become actors and actresses directed by Miss Beryl DeHaven. The students first begin by reading and learning small skits and plays, giving character parts, expression and feeling. They gradually work up into harder and longer plays, eventually giving dialect readings, monologues, and dialogues. In addition, the students are taught the art of make up—Chinese, gypsy, Egyptian, doll, and juvenile make-up being practiced. This is one of the most interesting phases of the course because each student is trying out his originality for the first time. The club members, drama class students and school play participants, meet on alternate Mondays. The officers are: president. Bob Barber; vice-president, Kay Roberts; treasurer, Gerald Soper; and secretary, Winifred Ryan. An assembly was given by the Drama Club in which they presented one of the popular plays, ‘The Pot Boiler.” 7 4e Science. Club Seated. Acjaut . . . One very industrious group in Central is the Science Club whose members prefer work to play. Two active sections are the Radio and Camera Clubs. In the above picture we see Alton Berg and George Tolson seated before their radio equipment with David Robertson, John Hanson, Bernard Fischback, and Don Grundy as interested co-workers. Below are two snaps of the Camera Club. David Robertson explains an illustration to a half-interested group. Ruth Schwanke is more interested in her camera. Dolores Chapman has her mind on something else. However, Elaine Buchanan, John Hanson, and Donald Crampton evince some interest. In another part of the room we sec Don Johansen, Elaine Buchanan, and Dick Kinder developing negatives. (D+t y044 1 MoaJz .

The Sons of the American Legion Rifle Club meet every Tuesday and Thursday evening at seven o’clock with Ivan Smith, instructor. Each member fires fifteen rounds of ammunition which comes direct from the War Department. As their shooting ability progresses, the boys are awarded medals and diplomas which are furnished by the Legion. Various stages include pro-marksman, marksman, marksman first-class, and sharpshooter. To be admitted membership in the S. A. L., a boy’s father must belong to the American Legion, he must at least be in high school, and not be over the age of eighteen. Each new member is given a copy of safety rules which must be observed. “It is better to be safe than sorry,” is the motto of the club. 121 Game. Aaui, Kidi ‘‘E-A-G-L-E-S, come on now, kids, let’s yell the rest.” Of course, that’s the work of the Pep Club. The fact that it is under the direction of Leslie Rathman accounts perhaps for its marked popularity and success. The Pep Club has really turned our school into an ultra modern one with its snappy uniforms and cleverly executed routines at pep assemblies. It works in collaboration with the Booster Club to rally the support of the students for the year’s athletic program. This enthusiastic club has a limited membership of those students who are the song and yell leaders and a few others who contribute to the betterment of the organization and the school. The officers of the club are: president, Lois Clocksin; vice-president, Leonard Siekmeir; secretary-treasurer, Kay Roberts. 122 Jle ell the (ledl . . .

School BacJzeAA. . . . The most spectacular touchdown of the year has been scored by the Booster Club which is one organization st Central High School that has raised itself from mediocre rank to number one position. This advancement can no doubt be attributed to the club’s ambitious and effervescent director, “Curly” Rathman. The organization has also had many outstanding officers and members who have contributed much to its betterment. The club’s aim is to improve the pep and the enthusiasm of the school and it has certainly gone a long way in reaching this goal. All of the pep assemblies prior to the football and basketball games were the result of the hard work of the Booster Club. Many of the outstanding assemblies such as the Professor Quiz skit, the Grouch Club act, and Hawaiian atmosphere assembly were just a few of the rousing programs that raised the cheers, yells, and backing of the entire student body. The Pageant Day Pep Fest and Snake Dance were also the result of the Booster Club’s ingenuity. The pep fest this year was one of the most notable pep gatherings that we have ever had. The officers of the Booster Club and Pep Club appeared in their new uniforms, which have added color and life to the pep festivals. The first basketball assembly was one in which the whole student body participated, truly showing the feeling that is behind our school athletic teams. The Booster Club also has charge of the sale of Relay Day tickets and does an especially good job of sponsoring the race for the traditional Relay Day Queens. Last year one of the activities that the Booster Club put through was the purchase of blue and gold hats for the student body. The colored hats added greatly to our pep assemblies and especially during the basketball tournament when clever hat flashing routines were performed. The assemblies are all planned by the committees designated by Mr. Rathman and their competent officers who are: president, Kathy Bassett; vice president, Jeanne Murphy; and secretary, Marcella McGovern. Here are shots of the Booster club taken at a meeting in Mr. Rathman' room (1) Mr Rathman bravely faces the camera with hand to chin, while Bill Gorder and Doug B lan ken baker relax contentedly against the wall.

(1) Here is a scene from “Hysterical Women” with Pocahantas Murphy, Cleopatra Opdycke, and Joan of Arc Parkans. (2) In an introductory assembly to announce the follies, a few of the gentlemen gave the student body a brief of the styles the lassies wore in ’89. Hanson, Thorson, Blanken-baker, Fischback, and Tiffany enhance the back row. Perkins curtsies for us. A carnival was the theme of the annual follies. In included everything from burning hamburgers to noisy barkers. (3) A few of the people who took part in the acts are: McGovern, Fischback, Grupe, Matz, Yunker, Pendroy, Smith, DeVries, Murphy, Kandaras, Schwab, Wangler, and Weisbecker. (4) Of course, it wouldn’t have been a real carnival without a circus band, so the follies had one. In the band were: back row: Robertson, Farmer, Decker, Liebenow, Flesher, and Berg; second row: Kelstrup, Beller, Klopfenstein, Anderson, Bens, and Guernsey; front row: Cooley and Higgins.
