.-Q. ., ,.:,Qg r . 0 THE CENTRAL BULLETIN C. DONALD EVERSON As Central commemorated its sixtieth anniversary as a school and its twenty- tfifthhcyear in the present building, The Central BULLETIN celebrated its twenty-fifth irt ay. This year, many changes have occurred. Because of rising prices, the length of the paper had to be cut from 19 to 14- inches, the number of columns from six to five, and the column width from 13 to 12 picas. A new style, making use of streamlining and flashy type, Hobo and Broadway, was adopted. The War also brought about some changes in the type of material printed. Throughout the year the BULLETIN backed every move of the U ,V ates Government and started a new policy by run- ning many stories of news of the school, such as defense work and the par- ticipation of Central graduat 'in the war effort behind and on the front lines. The Memorial Day issue was a high point in this type of story. In October, Miss Gertrude Walter, because of other obligations, was forced to relinquish the advisership of the editorial staff to Mrs. Jeanette Kern. Mr.. George O'Neill left in March to take a position in the Tariff Commission. His, post imviser of the business staff was taken over by Mr. Harold Crankshaw, who alreaigi , , gfill- ing the position of adviser of the printing staff. A In spite of these conditions, The Central BULLETIN kept its percentage of sub- scriptions, retaining over 700 subscribers as the school enrollment fell to 1400. The April Foolis Day edition had the highest paid sales, above subscriptions, in a num- ber of years. The returns were 5155.00 or 100 papers sold. At the G. W. High School Press Conference, held November 28, 1941, Jack Sheeskin, Co-Sports Editor of the BULLETIN, was awarded a medal for the best sports story written by a high school student in the middle Atlantic states. The BULLETIN terminated the year with a senior 'me' THE REVIEW THE Enrroas Every year changes are made, and new ideas are introduced into the Review. This year the staff has endeavored to add new interest to the make-up of the magazine by using for titles assorted letter types suitable to the mood of the particular story or article, rather than restricting the titles to one style of type. Because of the demands of our all-out war effort on paper and other supplies, the Review's size was necessarily cut this year. The circulation of the Review has also decreased because of the school's reduced enrollment. ln spite of these handicaps, however, Central's literary magazine has continued to publish ii high standard of stu- dent work for the enjoyment of the student body. In the June issue four pages were devoted entirely to the work of the Art Depart- ment, whose illustrations have contributed so 'much to the attractiveness of the maga- zine. For the first time in its history, the Review published a poem in French, which was written by Vera Pevsner. The November issue featured a two-page spread of Centralis victorious football team in addition to a photograph of the team in action. ' The Review was honored by a letter from Lord Halifax, the British ambassador to the United States, congratulating Lincoln Baxter on his pgem, Britannia, 1802- l94l.,' which was also published in the November Review.,,2g511f?fiQfiii'-'fs This is-:ue also contained the prize-winning essay in lpsihsponsored by the Colonial Daughters- Youth's Interest in Democracy byiM' i ' 'McMullen. A kind tribute was paid the Review by Miss Margaret Gi, M -the president of the National Society of the Colonial Daughters: 1 enjoyed looking through this fifty- four year old magazine of Central High School and wish to compliment you on its handsome appearance and interesting contents. I can well imagine the enthusiasm which goes into its production by its able staff of writers, editors, and artists, and the pride and satisfaction with which it is received. E291
