Evans Nathalie M. Clem Clara W. Thomas The time of the play is the year 1920. The place is on board “The Re-union, a yacht just leaving Naples for America. The circumstances are as follows: The Senior Class of T3 is to have a re-union at Central High, June, 1920. The class has drifted far and wide, but the location of the majority is known, and they have all been notified of the affair. “THE RE-UNION is a yacht chartered by some of the alumni of the class who are in Europe. At the beginning of the first act the yacht is about to start from Naples. Later she stops at different ports in order to pick up the numerous members of the scattered class. Marseilles is the first stop and then the yacht goes through the Garonne river and canal to the Atlantic and up to Hamburg. From Hamburg the party go to Liverpool and then directly to New York, where a number of the alumni are to meet the yacht to accompany the party the following day to Cleveland. ACT I. The curtain rises with two sailors having an argument as to the circumstances under which the yacht is making the voyage. When the captain enters everything is in readiness for the departure. The captain and wife are anxious because the rest of the party are missing. Soon the rest are seen coming up the gangplank at Naples and the yacht starts. The two treasurers of the class n yt appear and discuss the financial end of the trip. After all the five have assembled, a solo from the class cellist is requested, and he plays. The passengers exchange bits of news regarding members of the class. Upon coming into Marseilles, music is heard and more passengers are picked up, among them the cartoonist, who shows a few specimens of studies he has executed in Paris. At Hamburg, the class pianist, who has been studying music in Germany, joins the party. While tea is being served the pianist entertains them. At Liverpool, the class orator joins the crowd, together with a suffragette member of the class, who has been studying social conditions in. England. After the ladies have retired for the night the gentlemen chat among themselves about old times and the act concludes with a song by the class soloist. ACT II. The curtain rises with all the class officers and passengers on deck, the captain leaning over the railing looking through a spyglass. A group of ladies are sitting in the comer. The class pianist is entertaining one of the party aside. Another little group are still arguing on Woman Suffrage. All rush to the railing to catch sight of John D. Rockefeller's yacht passing, but the captain calls the company to order. He states that all must now come to business, to rehearse the program for the coming reunion. A rostrum is imagined to be at one end of the deck and the captain announces the performers in turn. The class cartoonist, the orator and a soloist appear in order. The program concludes with the song, “A PERFECT DAY. rendered by the two soloists, accompanied by the pianist and ’cellist. 26 (Eontttu'urrnmtt p?ak?rg JFarultg (£ljatrr FLORENCE BURNHAM LOUISE CANNEVILLE PERCIE HOPKINS LOUIS MARKOVITZ LEONARD S.

The contest is under the auspices of the .Shakespeare Club and is open to Juniors and Seniors. All the contestants try in a preliminary contest and the best six are chosen for the final struggle. This year the contest differed somewhat from that of preceding years in that all the orations had to be the product of the speaker’s own mind. At first some thought this too great an undertaking for High School boys, but the results bear out the contrary. The following were the subjects delivered: William Pitt, Earl of Chatham.Armen Evans The Problem of Child Labor.Rudolph Zucker The Passing of Tom L. Johnson........ .................Benjamin J. Shiffman World’s Peace ............Clarence Checks Proposed Speech On the Unveiling of the Perry Monument ..Leonard S. Levy Abraham Lincoln ...........Richard Horan Wilbur Wright ..........Newell Chamberlin Richard Horan was awarded the prize, a gold pin, while Clarence Cheeks and Benjamin J. Shiffman were given honorable mention for their efforts. The judges were: Attorney S. J. Kornhauser, a former Central High pupil; Rabbi Woolscy of the Euclid Avenue Temple, and Solomon Weimer, formerly of Central High, now principal of the High Schol of Commerce. The Football Boys On the Platform. This year, as usual, the sweaters were presented our football heroes at rhetoricals. Perhaps some of the under classmen wonder why some of the “speeches” so eagerly solicited, were not forthcoming. But we must remember that they are “men of action not of words” and excuse accordingly. The Senior Election. After several meetings of the class the Seniors finally decided upon their officers. Nathan Post was chosen president; Cecilia Prince, vice president; Clara Thomas, secretary; Robert Silverberg, treasurer; Florence Burnham, assistant treasurer, and Richard Cooley, sergeant-at-arms. The First Senior Informal During the past year the Seniors held two informal dances. The first informal was a reception for Mr. Ruetnik, held on Friday, October 4. Judging from the way those present responded to the music and incidentally, from the summary disappearance of the refreshments in Room 4, all seemed to have had a good time. SENIOR FORMAL. With a show of pomp and display never before equaled, the Senior Class, on January 24, gave their one and only Senior Formal. In the first place, as a departure from the ancient custom of gliding between the ridges and 32 valleys of wax on the floor of the lower hall, the dance this year was held at Anderson’s, and there is only one Anderson. The grand march was a startlingly intricate maze of turns and twists, but it gave everyone in the line an opportunity of viewing a most wonderful display of feminine costumes. The shades of harmonious color which were represented would have converted many a Cubist to the Impressionistic School of Art. Needless to say, the dance was a success. From the time the grand march broke into a two-step until the closing strains of the home waltz, everyone forget restraint and gave himself over to pleasure. That everyone had such a pleasant time was due entirely to the efforts of the committee who had charge of the affair. This was the Senior Executive Committee. Its members are to be congratulated. The “Still Missing Lunch Room.” Perhaps some day when the present Seniors return to “dear old Central” as alumni, they will find that for which they long had yearned—a well-equipped lunch room. For years it has been an innovation sorely needed, but not until this year did we hear definite talk of installing it. Mr. Ruetnik has promised that as soon as he can arrange for it, the school shall have its much needed lunch room. The Roll of Honor. The Monthly Board this year introduced an innovation by printing from month to month the names of those pupils whose averages were ninety or above. After the first list had been printed the school enthusiastically took up the idea and each individual resolved that next month his name would be among the honored ones. As a natural result scholarship went up and the teachers rejoiced that at last the much needed incentive for studying had been found. Naturally when the Monthly saw how the school received its idea, it continued it and now that the year is over we can see how much good it really has done. In order to gain a general idea of these results one need only look at the first and last issues containing the Honor Roll and after comparing the sizes of the two lists, the answer will be at once apparent. In view of these results, we suggest that the Honor Roll be made an institution and that the succeeding Monthly Boards continue to promulgate the idea. The Fire Drills. During the past year fire drills were given once a month. Since the fire escapes were tested and pronounced safe, the drills were conducted by means of them. Those reciting on the fourth floor were certainly not to be envied their dizzy descent from such a height. Yet practice makes perfect in all lines, for according to the confession of one who had experienced the steeps three times, this individual declared himself equal to the Matterhorn. THE LATIN PLAY. This seems to be a year of departure and innovations, and the Latin Department proved no exception. January 17, at rhetoricals, they produced the playlet, “A Roman School,” entirely in Latin. It was a tremendous undertaking inasmuch as there were among the audience some of the best critics of the Latin language in Northern Ohio, and the performers had to be very careful, not only that they received their cues right, but also that all long vowels were pronounced long and short vowels short. This made the task doubly hard, yet when it was over the critics could bestow nothing but praise. To Miss Essie Campbell, head of the Latin Department, and to Miss Bruot the credit belongs, because it was due to them that this undertaking was begun and brought to such an artistic finish. Mr. Edward Kanter of the class of 1913 designed the scenery, and it was due to him that the stage was so in accord with the action and setting of the play. Treble Cleff Club Sandwich Sale. The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach,” once remarked an ancient philosopher, and modern thought adds, “And to his pocketbook, too.” With fiendish ingenuity the Treble Cleff Club seized upon this adage as the key to the way by which they might secure their sweaters and, accordingly, foisted one of the old-time sandwich sales upon the unsuspecting pupils. Well, what with munching two sandwiches in either hand and at the same time dodging the rolled-up sandwich wrappers, we can say that the sandwich sale was a success. The biggest part, however, was due to the sandwiches. I can verily say that if there had been no sandwiches present the sale most emphatically would have been a failure. But enough of this. The club sold bushels and bushels of sandwiches. (They came in bushel baskets.) Incidentally, the club made a cigar box full of money. How much? It’s a secret. Anyway, they're going to get their sweaters. The Bazaar. It was Friday, March 28. After weeks of planning and working, the lower hall had blossomed forth, a busy market street in Bagdad ; the second floor a noisy midway at the circus, and the third, a cooling peaceful French garden. As the visitor entered he saw a merry, excited crowd of people, pelting each other with confetti. He stood, amazed, not knowing where to go first. From one side came the alluring strains of “Oh, You Silvery Bells,” from the music counter; on the other was the cornetist with his “This way to the big show in the auditorium!” Jumping about him were German waiters with canes full of pretzels, inviting him to “coffee and hot dogs” at the prosperous German inn; and, standing shyly before him were the trim little peasants with baskets of flowers and the veiled Turkish maidens with their candy. As he hesitated, a gentle hand was placed on his arm, and a sweet voice said, “May I tag you for the Lebende Bilder?” Just then with shouts and tinkling of bells the Cabaret troupe rushed down the steps, followed by a vivacious little Frenchman who showered handbills and urged the visitor to go to “Zee French cafe. M’sieur, zee French cafe.’ But m’sieur dashed past them all, and, after checking his hat and coat, spent the entire evening (and, incidentally, all his money) at the twentieth century dance hall in the gymnasium. There were such big crowds all the afternoon and evening that all departments did a thriving business. As a result, everybody was happy, so, hurrah for Central’s first bazaar! 34 Oct. 4. The Senior Class gives a reception to Mr. Ruetenik, at which all our dignified are introduced. Oct. 24. We enjoy our first rhetoricals of the year. Rather interesting' to contrast the complacency of Juniors with agony of future Senior speakers. Oct. 30. Witches, black cats and goblins hold full sway—Hallowe’en. Nov. 8. Again we have with us some of our old favorites, who tell our boys how to beat East in the “good old-fashioned way.” Senior Class organizes. Dec. 6. Ribbons awarded winners in tennis tournament by Mr. Ruetenik. Again we see Juniors and Sophomores carry off the greater part of the laurels. Dec. 13. Annual banquet of football team at Euclid Hotel. Dec. 20. The Shakespeare Club present “West of Omaha.” Mr. Harris heartily welcomed by the school. Jan. 17. We are agreeably surprised by the talent shown by performers in the Latin play, albeit all did not understand. Jan. 24. Senior formal held at Anderson’s. We are strengthened for trial the following week—examinations. Feb. 4. Once again we hear small people inquiring “for the nearest elevator.” Feb. 5. Several of our clubs enjoy a lecture by Mrs. Parr and a dance afterward. Feb. 10. The Shakespeare Club gives its annual luncheon. Feb. 14. We discover that sentiment is not entirely a lost art—St. Valentine’s Day. March 4. At last it is proved that those fire escapes are not for ornament only—those on the top floor enjoy testing them. March 7. We discover several orators of the coming generation in our midst. Oratorical contest. March 14—Gym. exhibition. March 17. “The wearers of the green” prominent—St. Patrick’s Day. March 28.

You want me to interview Mr. Junior Class. Say. that’s a corker. Will he say anything? Oh, I see, you’ve put it up to me. Well, I’ll do the best I can. “Now for the dirty work.” The Interview. “Mr. Junior Class, will you kindly tell me something of your history?” “I say, who are you?” T‘A reporter, sir, for the Annual.” Indeed, they wish me to relate to them my history? Ugh, I have no time for such tomfoolery.” “Please, Mr. Junior Class, say something or I’ll lose my job.” “Well, I will then, for your sake. Off in the dim past, I recall vaguely, very vaguely, of being a Freshman, how successfully (?J I overcame this drawback and became a Sophomore is now ancient history and how I became a Junior is medieval history. But my boy, I can say this much, the secret of my success has been perseverance. I have reached my present august (?) position by ceaseless striving and inasmuch as I have accomplished about all I can in this city of Central High School, I believe at the expiration of another year I shall invade a larger field. Good-day.” And breathlessly, I left his august personage.

Sophomore class history wanted ? All right, here goes. Twas in September of 1912 and the portals of Central High swung wide; a new school year had begun. A youthful, nay, quasi-ma-ture band of lassies and laddies returned to school. Returned, I say, for it was the Sophomore class. How dignified, how knowing, how older they looked! Is’t possible they were but Freshmen a year ago? And as the roll is called ’tis discovered that many familiar faces are missing (of those who had fallen by the wayside) but those who were left sturdily put their shoulders to the wheel. Theirs was the duty to uphold the Sophomore honor. Theirs the duty to uphold the Central standard. Days passed. Did they shirk or did they falter? Nay! Strive, strive, strive was their motto and as vacation looms before us, oh Class of 1915, I say, Central High is proud of you, proud of your efforts and successes, proud of your will and undying spirit. The last bell rings. It seems to say, “Half gone, half gone, half gone!” Alvord, Elizabeth Ashkenas, isaa Benedict, Florence Cleaveland, Marion Downer, Marion Fcnberg, Beatrice Goldman, Ida Herron.

The first attack was made in September and the second in February, but under the able leadership of Principal Reutenik and his assistants, the chaotic battalions were regulated and assigned to different rooms and in a remarkably short space of time had settled to their daily routine. Who can imagine the heartaches (and headaches) as these in- nocents first viewed the horrors of Latin and the terrors of Algebra. But were they daunted? Never, they plodded on and now as the year comes to a close, battalion one is ready to take up its duties as Sophomores and battalion two upon the final Freshmen lap. Truly, they can each lay aside their books and say, “Something accomplished, something done has earned my vacation now.’' Bacon, Harriet Baldwin, Ettice Berkeley, Rose Bronaugh, Ruth Burnett, Grace Cornsweet, Rose Fairfax, Sadie Friedman, Cora Friedman, Katherine Gill, Agnes Globus, Anna Henderson, Gladys Jacobson, Fannie Kohn, Helen La Rocca, Katie Levine, Irene Livingston, Shirley Lyon, Annie Melaragno, Ada Novak, Helen Olson, Hedwig Orkin, Fanny Pankuck, Anna Patera, Anna Perry, Ruth Schroeder, Gladys Stashower, Blanche Taylor, Cecil Torrey, Gilberta Trivisonno, Jennie Week, Norma Wenger, Elizabeth Wickes, Helen Wood, Marion Zachosky, Hazel Mead, Bessie Chapman, Marion Cunningham, Ruth Emde, Ruth Esch, Gertrude Ferencik, Beatrice Fowler, Eva Haas, Florence Harris, Ethel 43 Heinrich, Catherine Heinrich, Lillie Henderson, Lydia Hochman, Esther Jacobs, Florence Janoska, Bertha Kraus, Edna Lawson, Nettie Leingang, Gertrude Levenberg, Rosa Levitt, Sophie Lightman, Rhea Lipner, Anna Marx, Bertha Mirsky.

Foster Lewis Marcia Henry ®ljp iCast Wnri� The annual parting is about to arrive and ahead of us now looms the summer vacation. Looking forward, the future presents a variegated vista which each in turn interprets according to his manner. To the Senior class alone, the outlook seems indefinite. No longer will the days of another September welcome them to the rejuvenated Halls of Old Central. As a class we will have lived our life and exist no longer. Yet. while the next few days still remain to us, we seize upon this opportunity to review ourselves—with the eyes of censure, to be sure, yet censure softened to leniency at the thought of our approaching end. As a class we were not much better, not much worse, than those which have gone before. We had our faults and weaknesses, and a corresponding amount of good qualities. As a whole, the class can be placed under that not too exact heading “A Success.” But not here does our claim to distinction lie; our true worth was displayed in a far different field, in the field of personal associations. That is, after a slight variation from the path of amity, the class, returning, got to know itself. Not that we consider this an unusual phenomenon, yet in consideration of the new life opening before us, we realize that no better foundation could be built upon than the foundation of mutual friendship and understanding. With material such as this, not one of us need “build upon the sands.” Upon the Seniors as individuals a momentous decision has been thrust. “Which path shall we pursue?” is the universal query and doubt and indecision hold the senior wavering. At such an important step in their life it is not for us to suggest. Yet we can strengthen them in their decision with these parting directions. Members of the Senior class, you arc on the threshold of your lives! The materials lie before you which hereafter you will build with. They are yours to make a fin- 49 ished project! If you do not exert yourselves, the failure is your own. Success will surely follow assiduous application. Remember this then and as architects, with the material of your high school years so strong and so solid, “hew to the line” and build carefully. To the rest of the school, to the Freshman. Sophomore and Junior classes we wish the heartiest success. They each have their way to make and each strives for the same goal. Our best wishes accompany them on their journey. To the Faculty we can but express our heartfelt affection and thankfulness, especially to Mr. Kinder, our class adviser, to Mr. JRuetenik and to Mr. Bathrick. Now only a few days remain during which we as students can still seek their guidance and then we go out to a new life. 50 CLUBS 51 Gj irls Hitrrarg nrtPtg The first part of the year’s program of the Girls’ Literary Society was divided between character studies taken from celebrated works and original writings. Although each girl dreaded the thought of writing an original, as well as of trying to present a character in the true light, results were by no means unsatisfactory; in fact we can be proud of them. Through the character studies, we became acquainted with various famous book-heroes and heroines, giving us better conceptions of them and the works they grace. The originals vied with one another for first place; description, fiction, and fact taking heated part in the race. Later we introduced book reviews to replace the character sketches. These summaries proved exceedingly instructive, as well as interesting, reviewing briefly plot and characters ; in short, a book in a nutshell. At Christmastime the club gave a spread with Mr. Ruetenik as its guest. Everyone had a very good time, and carried home a souvenir of the occasion. In February the G. L. S.. with other senior clubs was invited to Mrs. Parr’s lecture upon ‘'Orchestration,’’ which was illustrated by beautiful musical selections on a Victrola. After the talk we found that refreshments had been provided in the lower hall and that the floor had been waxed for dancing. The bazaar gave us enough to do! How we did work to make it a success! The old G. L. S. members bought our candy with zest, while strangers inquired, “What does G. L. S. stand for?” We salesladies would modestly answer, “That stands for the Girls’ Literary Society, the best society in the school,’’ and they would buy. Through the kind interest and help of Miss Smith and Miss Chcsnutt, we have endeavored to live up to the standard of the G. L. S., which, though set upon a high pinnacle, is not unattainable to her who strives to reach it. Each and all of us hope that we have succeeded in reaching that goal, and we sincerely thank our two advisers for the guidance and the unstinted encouragement they have given us.

This club, as has been the case in previous years, has done much for its members under the able leadership of Mr. Lewis, who himself was a member of this club in 1893. At opportune moments Mr. Lewis favored the club with many interesting and beneficial talks and lectures. Several members of the club also have greatly aided in its welfare. The initiation of the new Junior members was a novelty this year and made a great “hit.” However, the rest of the school did not sec the best of it. The club had its picture snapped at Horton’s and all survived the supreme test. The Senior members enjoyed their annual banquet, the last official act of the year, and all join in wishing Mr. Lewis and the Junior members the best success and prosperity.

Among the lives and works of famous artists we have studied are those of: Giatto and the early Italian painters; Raphael and Michael Angelo; Titian and the early Venetian artists and Reubens and the Dutch artists. The club has enjoyed one formal and one informal dance. Miss Henry very entertainingly read at one of our meetings a poem of Browning’s, Andrea del Sarto, illustrated with pictures by the Florentine artist.

One very pleasant afternoon was passed at a meeting, when Mr. Ozanne told us of his recent trip to Athens, a talk much enlivened with incidents of his personal experience. Of course, the Latin play, “A Roman School, ' was the important event of the year. How we enjoyed the rehearsals which not only tested our histrionic ability but also increased our knowledge of the Latin. As we all know, the entire success of the play was due to the untiring patience njf Camp- bell and the coaching of Miss Bruot. For the remainder of the year, the “Letters of Cicero” were translated and proved both interesting and instructive. The Seniors hope that the coming year will bring the same success and good luck to the Juniors. First Term. Second Term.

Each Tuesday a happy group of boys and girls have congregated, all deeply interested in their work and mindful of the rare opportunity offered them, for this club is the only French club in the high schools of the country allied with “La Federation de 1’Alliance Francaise of France” Though it is true that in the first stages of mastering the French language, some queer and even original pronunciations were attempted, it is gratifying at present to state that pronunciation is no longer a “bete noir.” “La Poudre aux Yeux” by Labiche and Martin was greatly appreciated and afforded general amusement. Also “L’Abbe Constantin” by Cremieux and Decourcelles gave us a broad view of French literature. At each meeting we get in (or out of) tune by singing French songs including “La Marseillaise,” “La Reinc Hortense” and others. We have by no means neglected to have good times in a social way. Our well-attended spread (or rather the remains of it) bore witness to this. Le Lycee Francaise took a prominent part in the bazaar and surely no one failed to notice the black moustached monsieur and the charming prima donna direct from the Avenue de l’Opera, who delighted all. Then the annual treat, the French Club banquet dainty with French appointments, crowned the efforts of the year. We all gratefully remember that the results realized by the club are largely due to the helpful aid of our esteemed teacher, Dr. Ze-liqzon. (JDffircrs First Term.

The first business of the Club was the consideration of new members, with the result that several Seniors were taken in. Initiation in the good old fashioned way and one of our famous spreads followed. The first half of the year astronomy was studied, and the latter half scientific talks were given by Mr. Hayes and some of the members. In the spring election both Juniors and Seniors w’ere taken into the Club. They furnished their own initiation program, which was original and interesting. Another of our famous spreads followed.

Her program has consisted of speeches, debates and extemporaneous talking. Several of our members have appreciated the way these programs have helped them in speaking. The exceptions have been pleasant changes. About Christmas our director, Mr. Heinmiller, gave us an interesting lecture with stcreopti-con views on Europe. It was very much enjoyed. The bazaar gave our members a chance to show that they can do something else besides talk. They seemed to be very much in evidence with their white caps and aprons with baskets of merchandise. Our banquet on May 2 furnished us another chance to show what we could do. We succeeded just as well there. Everybody went home vowing that the Psi Omega knew how to do things. A set of boot-blacks in the halls of our dignified school recently supplied us with some long anticipated amusement. To them we leave the Psi Omega, that they may profit by her teachings. We all express our sincere gratitude to our able and efficient director, Mr. Heinmiller. The club will never want a better leader, and we hope the new members will appreciate and profit by his guidance. First Term. Fred Wittenbach Fleming Blair ... David Britton Allen Excell.....

HITCHCOCK The Monthly Board has had a very successful season this year in that they have cleared all expenses nicely as well as kept up the standard of the paper. A new department, the Honor Roll, has been started which has which has awakened quite a good deal of interest among the students. The success of the work this year is largely due to the very efficient help which the editorial staff has given, and to the careful and tireless aid furnished by the faculty members. 70 GDrrljrstra Good orchestra material seemed somewhat scarce this year, but one good first violin was gained in Sydney Sampliner, and one second violin, Tony Vondrasek; also a flute, Hugo Prucha. At the close of 1911-1912 we lost both clarinets by graduation, but last September George Thobeben undertook the difficult task of learning to play one and succeeded remarkably well for so short a trme. In February we gained another clarinet, when Miss Gladys Bovey came into the orchestra. About the same time (after Xmas), Miss Edith Pierson withdrew from school and we lost our French horn—a loss that has not yet been supplied. We likewise lost the trombone when George Durijil left school. The orchestra is very sorry to lose the services of the pianist, Miss Jessie Lepon, who withdrew from school at the close of April, but who kindly consented to finish out the year with the orchestra and, inasmuch as the orchestra loses only two more members by graduation, Sollie Abrams and Lee Parker, it looks as though the next year will be as successful as the one just closing.

(EUih What has the season of 1913 been to the ‘‘Glee Club? ' This question is answered by saying that the “Glee Club” has made the best record of any year since its organization. In September it appeared almost impossible to develop a club, due to the fact that “Tenors” were not to be found, but the hope of having a club was not lost and after a long search these valuable “Tenors” were discovered and the mould was made in which a “Glee Club” was to be cast. Fortunately we had Mr. Reed with us and in a short time our idea of developing a Banner Club ’ seemed no impossible aim. By many hard rehearsals we were able to give our first concert before Christmas, and at the end of April twenty concerts had been given. Surely these concerts, especially those out of the city, will linger in our memories forever and the good times we all had, tell of the spirit of good fellowship that was found among all in the Club. These “good times” were made so by the congenial spirit of the members, and when such spirit is in evidence no one need wonder why the fellows were willing to devote every afternoon of the school year to “Glee Club” practice. We all looked forward to the “Home Concert” for we wanted to make it an entertainment long to be remembered in the annals of “Old Central and the school can testify that we did our best. To Mr. F. H. Reed, the club extends their thanks for his earnest efforts in developing our club to the standard it has reached. May all the “Glee Clubs” to follow have the success of the club of 1913.

Saab The season of 1912 graciously left Coach Blaser a firm and strong foundation with prospects of producing a steel-structured football team. George Fetzer, the “find” of the previous season. Cap. John Navario and the other tried and true veterans were all men of metal, besides a heap of glittering raw material. Our Lincoln game was the curtain-raiser. Capt. Oldenburg and Ethan Allen distinguished themselves by repeated long runs around end. Both these men showed remarkable speed in carrying the ball in open-field. Central, however, totalled 20 points to Lincoln’s 6 and made a good start for the 1913 supremacy. But the following week, East Tech gave us a grand surprise and showed us that our wings were not accustomed to fly very far. Lack of team work and a great amount of fumbling was ever present on our side. Hence Tech’s quarterback crossed the goal line for 2 touchdowns. Central rallied in the last quarter and completely outplayed their opponents, but the goal line proved to be too far away and Central failed to register. 82 Indignant at this setback Central met West Tech the following week, with a display of grit and ginger that marks one who comes back determined to fight and fight hard. This spirit started Central on her list of successive victories. West Tech went down to defeat by a 39 to 0 score. Glenville suffered a 26 to 0 score. West High met a similar fate with a 20-0 score, and South was humbled by a 59 to 0 score. through center for five yards at a time, Brooks tore holes through East’s line for consistent and steady gains. On East’s 40 yard line Post attempted to punt but a wild pass from the center made the ball pass over Post’s head. He quickly recovered and punted the ball, but for a short distance only. Cofall then picked it up and ran for a touchdown. Egert registered a point on a place kick, bringing the total to 7 points. CENTRAL-EAST GAME Spurred on by these victories Central met the East High squad with every man on edge for a good hard game. Central stepped on the field a strong-winged, experienced team. Five minutes after the kick-off we were ploughing through East’s line to the surprise of both sides. Fetzer made repeated long gains through tackle and guard, Catalano smashed In the second quarter, East could not stop the onward march but fought gamely. Central kept up its gruelling ground-gaining line bucks. Brooks finally went through tackle for a touchdown but was penalized 15 yards for being in motion before the ball was passed. But Central plunged once more 5 yards from the goal, only to be stopped by the blow of ••IRISH” up 70 yards and things looked well for Central, but unfortunately Fetzer broke his ankle and Central’s hopes were in the descendant. However, Khorabck inspired pep” in the team and they made a grand spurt that netted us a touchdown by Khorabek. H. Comey was the individual star of the game and made some brilliant end runs for U. S. In the first four minutes of our next game, with Shaw High, Khorabek registered a touchdown and later Lavine duplicated by intercepting a forward pass. Central relaxed, thinking the tide of the game was over, but Shaw proved otherwise. With a finish nothing short of marvelous, Shaw marched to victory with a 22 to 14 score. the whistle. The half was over. The third quarter found Central’s back-field trio keeping up the same modus operands which finally resulted in Catalano crossing the goal for a touchdown. Cap. Navario dropped the ball, losing the one point that would have tied the score. Again in the last quarter Central had many chances to win. now resorting to long forward passes, but there was a Divinity that shaped our end, rough-hew it how we might,” and when the final whistle blew the game belonged to East. Who can forget the indelible account of this game? “Outplayed, outgeneraled, but not outlucked, etc., East High won from Central. Central met U. S. the following week with the same grit that characterized its previous playing. At the outset we made U. S. back “PETE” In taking a bird’s-eye view of the team, we can say that Central had a strong line and a list of star back-fielders. Although we won the majority of the games still we did not shine, for a shadow of ill luck seemed to be ever present. Our coach was Dutch Blaser. It was due to his hammering and forging that many of the inexperienced became finished articles. He studied football, he taught football, he coached football. Can a coach do more? Our finance was well taken care of by Mr. Caskey. He tells that the season was a grand success. (From his viewpoint.) Manager Newell Chamberlin tried his utmost to assist the team.

Our first game with East High was a hard fought game and a foul shooting contest, both teams showing early-season form. The second game of the season was fast, snappy and evenly matched. The first half of the game ended 11 to 10 in West Tech’s favor, but Capt. Blackmore rolled up the neat sum of 12 points and made the deciding field basket that won the game in the last minute of play. We met too strong an opposition when the Shaw quintet played us. Lack of locating the basket was our great defect. The Central-South game was a noteworthy game because neither team scored a field goal until the last few minutes of play, when South broke loose and defeated us 16 to 6. 87 Our next game spelled defeat at the hands of Glenville, but only after an evenly matched, rough game. Central closed the first half of the game in the lead, but was unable to keep it. Central was victor over Commerce after the West Siders had a comfortable lead. Louis Guth caged 5 field goals and showed up well in team work. In the next game Central was too much for the Lincolnites, although the game sea-sawed most of the time. Central was somewhat handicapped by the small floor. Our next game proved that there was something in our team and it took East Tech to bring it out. Never in this season was such a hotly contested game played. Central redeemed itself by this game, although East Tech won. The following week West gave us a trounc- • ing, defeating our team 27 to 16. Our team as a whole was good, but its one fault proved to be its undoing. Due to inexperience it was not accurate enough in shooting baskets. Most fcf our opponents were outplayed in team work, but that alone does not bring points. The second team showed up remarkably well, and we hope that Goodman, the next year’s captain, will lead a championship team. Line-up. Wm. Blackmore.............Captain and R. F.

Every High School had a large representative squad of athletes and competition was never so sharp in previous years. As a result several records were established, probably to remain. Central had an exceptionally large squad of athletes who competed in the Annual Indoor Interclass Meet. Burke carried away the hon- 90 THE TEAM ors of the highest point winner, while Michael Hayes ran a close second. Coach Green has taken the athletes in hand and has molded many into good form. Burke, Friedland, Hayes. Stien and Siedenfeld were chosen to represent Central in the Pittsburg meet. Central was also ably represented in the Quadrangular and Interscholastic meets and captured several laurels. THE CAPTAIN 91 (Girls’ iCrators' (Class Year after year the interest in girls’ athletics grows stronger. Schools and colleges have equipped gymnasiums for tlieir girls, and girls themselves have awakened and are learning the value of exercise and play. Old Central, always in the lead, has a right to be proud of her girls, for through the use of their gymnasium they not only have become lovers of indoor and outdoor sports, and skillful in them, but they also stand high in scholarship. For it is a well known fact that a sound mind dwells in a sound body. Among the girls who are especially interested in gymnasium work and athletics in general, are the members of the Leaders Class. That they enjoy the work of the gymnasium and take pleasure in games of all kinds were shown by the enthusiasm and vim with which they prepared for and carried through the annual exhibition. Many a patron was heard to remark that the exhibition this year was the best ever witnessed in the gymnasium of Old Central. This, we think, was largely due to the patient effort of Miss Mosher and the Girls' Leader Class, for the wonderful feats which some of our girls performed were the result of many weeks of faithful work. The fun-loving girls of the Leaders Class, however, must play as well as work. We look forward to our spreads with great anticipation, which is certainly justified, as all who have partaken must confess. But now the work and fun are over for the year, and the Leaders wish to thank Miss Mosher for the unfailing help and patient effort which she has always shown, and to wish her success with all future Classes, which we are sure will uphold the high standard of the Girls’ Leaders Class.

Hockey, however, is still in its infancy and basketball ranks as the favorite sport among the girls. This year the seniors formed in two teams instead of one, as formerly, for more girls responded to the first roll-call than ever before. The Junior Reds and the Junior Blues represented the juniors, while the sophomores and freshmen had their regular room teams. The Junior Reds were our champions. They first beat the Blues, then the two senior teams went down to defeat before them. Fate seemed to be against the senior team this year. Last year they had the honor of defeating the seniors for the first time in many years, and this year the same thing happened. When all the schedules had been played off, Miss Mosher chose a team of players to represent each class. The seniors’ ill luck still remained and they lost to both juniors and sophomores. The freshmen, probably because of their inexperience, shared the lot of the seniors and were also defeated by the junior and the sophomore teams. The game between the two victorious teams was played at the exhibition. It was exciting and at first the only score made belonged to the second-year players. But just before the whistle was blown for the last time, a basket was made and the juniors won. Score, two to one. This game closed the basketball season for the year. The track meet followed and in this the underclass girls showed themselves to be close rivals of the upperclass girls. Track Meet.

Marion Wood scored 4 feet 5 inches in high jump, a higher score than has been made for three years. When spring comes around, the girls all begin to think of playing baseball. This is one of the games which we play out of doors, and it is always a pleasure. Another thing that we hail with delight is our May-walk. Every May, Miss Mosher goes with us on a cross-country jaunt and we pick wild-flowers and munch sandwiches and enjoy ourselves. Our May-walk closes the work and fun in the gymnasium, but by the time the tennis courts have opened and we enjoy our sports just the same. 94 THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The officers of the association for the last year were: President, George C. Strnad; Vice President, Ruth Renter; Secretary. Geo. F. Climo. Member at large. John Na-vario; Treasurer, Mr. Bathrick, faculty ad- viser, Mr. Caskey, the physical directors of the school. Miss Moser, and Mr. Bathrick. We have succeeded in getting the largest enrollment of members had at Central for a few years in the Association. 95 Efchattnrj Last year saw the close of the three year contest for the Debating Cup. Since this meant that the entire schedule had run out, the Interscholastic Debating League met early in November to draft a new schedule. In a short time a satisfactory one was decided upon and Central was assigned to meet Glen-ville High on Jan. 10 and Lincoln on March 21. Accordingly as soon as the dates were announced the debating coaches, Mr. Ozanne, Mr. Lewis and Mr. Cook, sent out a call for material. The material responded and one day in the library the trials were held and the following were chosen as the team: Ben J. Shiftman, Leonard S. Levy and Jerome W. Moskowitz, with Samuel J. Salzman as alternate. Communication was immediately opened with Glenville High and the following subject was decided upon, “Resolved, that in the construction of a new charter for the city of Cleveland a large representative council shall be retained.” Central High upheld the affirmative. The debate was held according to schedule at the Glenville High School auditorium before a large and enthusiastic audience. Glenville was given the decision l:v a divided vote of the. judges. 96 Soon after the debating coaches assembled once again and, after the candidates had been heard, the following were chosen to meet Lincoln High: William Morrison, Ralph Herz and Rudolph Zucker, with Walter Bemis, alternate. The subject chosen was, “Resolved, that a six year presidential term with ineligibility for re-election is preferable to the present system.” The debate was held in the Central High School auditorium and Central, upholding the affirmative, was adjudged the winner by a divided vote of the judges. This victory gives us a standing of .500 in the Interscholastic Debating League. Besides the two home debates, due to the enterprise of Mortimer Kaufman, the business manager, the debating team secured an out of town date with Wooster High School. Friday evening. Feb. 28, the first team, accompanied by Mr. Ozanne. journeyed down to Wooster to debate on the subject, “Resolved, that a council not materially less than is now specified in the Municipal Code of Ohio, be retained in the cities of Ohio having a population of 20,000 or more.” Central upheld the affirmative. After a sharp and hotly contested argument the decision was awarded to Wooster. The following day was spent in recreation and the team journeyed home with the fixed resolve to make an out of town debate an annual event at Central. 97 PERSONALS NAME GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS KNOWN BY LIKES MOST Dorothy Bonfoey Very shy (?)

The teacher in natural history had received more or less satisfactory replies to her questions, says the Delineator, and finally she asked: “What little boy can tell me where the home of the swallow is?” Long silence, then a hand waved. “Well.

A captain of a certain sloop, who crossed the deck in a hurry, seemingly very much perplexed, was stopped by a lady who asked what the trouble was. “The fact is ma'am,” he said, “our rudder’s broken.” “Oh, I shouldn’t care about that,” said the lady. “Being under water nearly all the time, no one will notice it.”—Mariner’s Advocate.

What would your majesty have done had I lost both arms?” “Oh, in that case, I should have made you officer of the legion.” Whereupon the old soldier immediately drew his sword and cut off his other arm.

The jury after long deliberation seemed unable to agree in a perfectly clear case. The Judge, thoroughly exasperated at the delay, said: “I discharge the jury.” One sensitive juror, indignant at what he considered a rebuke, faced the Judge. “You can’t discharge me!” he said, with a tone of conviction. And why not?” inquired the judge in surprise. “Because,” announced the juror, pointing to the lawyer for the defense, “I was hired by that man there.” A MATTER OF RELATIONSHIP. Two chance acquaintances from Ireland were speaking together. “An so ycr name is Riley? said one. “Are yez any relation to Tim Riley?” “Very dishtantly,” said the other. “Oi was me mother’s first child and Tim was the twelfth.” 108 What Sn $Jmt (libtnk Abrntt Jit? About the year 70 B. C. there lived in the city of Rome a famous teacher of the law, Steritus by name. To him, from all corners of the earth flocked pupils desirous of becoming versed in the laws of Rome. His knowledge was great and his logic keen, but as great as was his knowledge and keen his logic, just so cunning was his mind. These three qualities combined in the one man made him a personage to be respected and feared. At the same time there dwelt in the same city a youth. Icarus by name, of poor yet noble parentage. Upon reaching the age of discretion he became imbued with the idea of entering the law and making it his life-work. So great was his ambition to succeed that he desired to be taught by none other than Steritus himself, but, inasmuch as Steritus’ terms were so high, it seemed that his desire was not to be fulfilled. Yet he was a youth of strong will and would not acknowledge himself defeated without having ventured anything, so, accordingly he sought an audience with Steritus in the hope that he might come to some terms with him. When Steritus heard the facts of the case, so impressed was he by the earnestness of the youth's ambition, that, accordingly, the following bargain was made: Steritus was to teach the youth law until he bacame so well versed in it that he could carry on cases in the law courts himself. If he won the first case he conducted, from the proceeds thereof he was to pay Steritus the regular tuition due him for his teaching. If, however, he lost his first case he need pay Steritus nothing. The matter was put into written form and signed by both, and Icarus left the presence of Steritus, teacher of law, well satisfied. Thus began the tuturing, and so assiduously did Icarus heed the instructions of Steritus, the master, that soon he became the best of Steritus’ scholars. This rejoiced the heart of the master and he spent more time on Icarus than any of the other pupils, for he knew that should Icarus become famous as an exponent of the law, much glory would be due him. the tutor of Icarus. At that time there took place in Rome a tremendous philosophical revival. Eagerly were the writings of the old teachers read and discussed, and from each street corner new doctrines were daily expounded to all those who cared to listen. Into the heart of these discussions Icarus was carried, and so great an enthusiasm was aroused in his breast by these new thoughts that he resolved to forsake the law and become a student of philosophy. Accordingly, the next day, instead of going to the lecture-rooms of Steritus, he took up his stand upon the street corner to listen to the discussions on philosophical subjects. Steritus was not a little surprised to see the place usually occupied by his star pupil, Icarus, empty, for never before had Icarus absented himself while a lecture was going on, yet Steritus felt no alarm and assured himself that the next day would see Icarus in his accustomed place. But the next day brought forth no Icarus, nor the next, until finally Steritus himself went out to search for him and found him standing on the street corner listening to the philosophers. With angry terms he reproached him for neglecting his studies, when Icarus suddenly announced that he had found his vocation and that he was through with the law forever. “Through with the law forever,” exclaimed the thoroughly stirred Steritus, “and what about me and our bargain?” “I Can imagine nothing of less consequence,” answered Icarus, and he strode away without waiting to hear more. Steritus was speechless with astonishment and when he finally recovered his breath he was so angry that all he could mutter was, “We shall see! Wait! We shall see!” The next day Icarus was summoned before the court to answer a charge of breach of contract. Icarus conducted his own case and argued before the assembled jury that every man had the right to choose his own vocation and that even not considering this, the contract required him to pay for his tuition only after he had taken up the actual practice of the law and thus, if he wanted to stop before he entered the profession it was clear that the terms of the contract could not hold good. Steritus then spoke and argued that the contract did hold good for Icarus had entered the profession of law by conducting his own case. This sally was greeted with laughter at the expense of Icarus, and the jury men were openly discussing the case when suddenly Icarus jumped up and said: “Hold on! Steritus here says that by defending myself I have entered the legal profession and therefore the contract does hold good. Very well. I agree with him. But hear me further. If the jury brings in a decision favorable to me, by virtue of their decision I win the case and need pay Steritus nothing. If, however, the jury decides the other way and I lose this, my first case, according to my contract with Steritus, gentlemen, I again need pay him nothing, for so did the contract read. Thus, I leave the case in your hands.” The courtroom was amazed at this clever turn of affairs, and the tide of discussion rose and fell, but all had to admit the plausibility of Icarus’ argument, when suddenly Steritus was seen to arise: “Oh, gentle- men of the jury,” he began, “be not confused by this upstart’s ready tongue! Listen to my plea! I hold that if the jury decide favorable to me, by virtue of the decision I win the case and Icarus must pay me the sum due. If, however, the jury decides otherwise, and I lose the case, while Icarus wins, by virtue of the contract, gentlemen, Icarus must pay me my money, for he will then have won his first case. So did the contract read.” The courtroom was again amazed, and the jury men argued and argued among themselves, half favoring Icarus and half Steritus, until finally they confessed to the judge that they could come to no decision. He himself in turn could not decide, and so the case was carried to a higher court. These also disagreed, and finally, after going from court to court it was thrown out of court as an objectionable case. By that time, however, Icarus had become a famous philosopher and Steritus was old and gray. Finally they came together and agreed to forget their differences and become friends, but neither would ever admit that the other had been right. And so we ask you, who was right? CONTRIBUTED. 110 dluflt As 3t ?iiapprnr Mr. Thomas Brown was hastening home. There was no denying the fact that he was glum, that he was angry—mad clean through—that, oh well, that he was mad. All day, while at his work one thing rankled him. His wife had failed to kiss him good-bye that morning. Was her love cooling? And as he thought of it, little minor incidents of the past month came up, little neglects on her part. He had failed to mark them, but now, as he thought of the matter, he saw things in a clearer light. She loved him no more. And so, as I was saying before, he was angry. Mr. Thomas Brown, it must be remarked, was young, very young, and he strode rapidly down the street, and his angry stride soon carried him to the apartment house where he lived. Then he walked slowly up the stairs and at length reached the door of his home. As his hand fell on the knob, he heard the murmur of voices coming from the room, lie hearkened, one voice he recognized. It belonged to his wife, but the other—heavens—was a masculine voice—a stranger’s. He leaned forward to catch their words, and imagine his consternation when he heard his wife say, “Sweet one, I think so.” You who have been bludgeoned at night; you who have had a brick house fall upon you; you who have been struck by light-ning; you can understand the feelings of Mr. Brown. His first impulse was to rush in and denounce the wretches. But no, he must do something else. (To be frank, he was afraid the stranger was bigger than he was.) Just then the knob turned and Brown barely had time to scurry into a dark corner before the door opened and a tall unknown walked out. As he disappeared down the stairs, Brown unbuttoned his overcoat, resolutely set his shoulders and turned the ends of his budding mustache. Then he strode forward, opened the door, shut it behind him and stood posed in the center of the room. His wife came forward to meet him as usual but was halted by his strange appearance. For he stood in an entirely irrational attitude, his arms folded, a fierce smile covering his features. “Ah-ah,” he said in true melodramatic style, “Woman, you have betrayed me.” Then scene one, act three, of the “ten-twenty-thirty” play he had witnessed the week before came to him. The lines flowed from his lips. “An hour ago I was the happiest man on earth but now the lowliest beggar is happier than I. An hour ago I was the proudest of mortals and now my head is bowed toward earth in shame. The burden of my degradation is too strong for this mortal frame to bear and I must needs go to the darkest recesses of earth to hide myself from mortal vision. I shall go forth into the world to seek the snake in my garden of Eden, and if I find him, a-ah. then will I reek bitter vengeance. I go. woman, never to darken these doors ag-----” Just then there was a knock. Brown paused in the midst of his tirade and said: “Come in.” The door opened. It was the stranger— the snake, the betrayer. “Madame,” he said to Brown’s wife, who stood in the corner of the room still terrified at the unfathomable actions of her husband, “Henry Parker does not live in suite one as you told me, but in suite two. I am very much obliged to you just the same.
