This year, for the second time in the history of the Monthly, a girl has held sway as editor-in-chief. As to the manner in which she has acquitted herself of this task of high responsibility, we will leave it to the “Monthlies” already published to speak for themselves. However, if the editor-in-chief deserves the highest credit for the literary success of the publication, the business manager deserves no less for straightening out the financial tangles so abundant this year. For it can be justly said that for some time past the Monthly has been keeping itself up rather in spite of the school than through its aid and co-operation. There will have to be a general awakening to a better appreciation of the school magazine next term if it is to continue its existence at all. At a recent Monthly Board spread, Arthur Henry was announced as the fu ture editor-in-chief and Joseph Mayers -as business manager. $ French Club. At the beginning of the term prospects were rather gloomy for the French Club. Our faculty advisor, Dr. Zeliqzon, was occupied until after the close of the ninth period, making it necessary to begin our meetings at a very late hour. But the interest and perseverance of the members and the tireless energy of our faculty advisor have enabled the Club to disregard inconveniences and to continue the regular work of familiarizing itself with the French language and literature. Most of the members have acquired a lasting interest in the language and intend to keep up their studies in this line after graduation, since French will probably be in great demand after the war. El Club Espanol. The Spanish Club of 1918 has undoubtedly just completed one of its most profitable terms. Regular program meetings were held every two weeks and the club has had unusually good attendance this year. Most of the members took part in each program and much benefit, as well as amusement, was derived front this. On account of the lack of a subject which would fit the present times, and also be suitable to the Spanish language, our annual Spanish play had to be omitted. The Spanish Club showed that it was in no way lacking in patriotism. It did its bit” by contributing $100 towards furnishing a room at the I). A. R. Lodge at Chillicothe, Ohio. ★ GERMAN CLUB. Our work during the semester has been exceedingly interesting because it was so varied. Wc did some Red Cross knitting besides our other work. Our literary work consisted of the reading of short German stories and poems. We have enjoyed several musical programs and have also spent a profitable afternoon at the Art Museum. Owing to the difficulties of holding meetings under the present nine-period plan, or the shift plan suggested for next year, the club will be discontinued for the present. Boys’ Leaders Club. The Boys’ Leaders Club has just finished a very profitable year. The Annual Leaders’ Show was given on Feb. 15, before a very large audience. According to its custom of always giving the proceeds to some worthy object, the club gave $100 to the I). A. R. home at Chillicothe. All in all, the club has been very successful this year under the leadership of Mr. C. B. Lewis. 37 Girls Literary Society. Though still retaining its name of literary society the G. L. S. tor the past year has been giving up all literary activities for the more urgent work required of all Americans in these times of stress. After some delay and hesitation it was decided that Red Cross work at Headquarters is most in keeping with the high standards of this club. Thus the beautiful room where the club meetings used to be held has been exchanged for the bustling atmosphere of Red Cross Headquarters. Besides the feeling of satisfaction derived from doing something useful for their country, the girls have also found great pleasure in sociable conversation while working together. But their first aim has always been to pile up the finished articles as fast as possible during the short time allotted to them. Faraday Club. Due to the efforts of our Faculty advisor, Mr. Marple, a very successful year has been enjoyed by the Faraday Club. The work of the term has consisted mainly in studies of ‘ The Human Ear,’ ‘‘The Human Eye.’’ “Color” and other such interesting subjects for which the class room finds no time. Those of us who graduate this term extend to the remaining members of the club the sincerest wishes that the following year will prove as successful as the past one has. ♦ ♦ ♦ Olympian Club. The Olympian club has had a very enjoyable semester under the excellent supervision of our faculty advisor, Mr. Lewis. We have been reading a highly amusing Latin play entitled Tirones, which led us to question the truth of the saying that Latin is a “dead” language. The kind we have been dealing with at club meetings has been very much living and full of pep. The grand climax of the term was Mr. Lewis' illustrated lecture on his travels in Europe, to which all the Senior Latin classes were invited. On the whole the immortals have en- joyed some ‘ immortal times together and those who are departing highly regret to leave behind them the cthered joys of Mt. Olympus. The Shakespeare Club. At the first meeting of the Shakespeare Club, on September 20, 1917, the new officers gave their inaugural speeches and plans were discussed for the term. Next, arrangements were made for the Thanksgiving play, and we decided to present to the school, “His Hat and Cane,” a comedy in one act. 'The cast for this play was: Madame Danisheff..........Hazel Guide Henri Di Berard.....McKinley London Victorino .............. Esther Matyas Marquis dc Santa Flora.............. ................. Arthur Kestenbaum The play was presented at the Thanksgiving rhetoricals and, if judged by the applause of the audience, was a great success. Three new rules were adopted for the government of the club and one of the many suggestions made for the good of the club was that a play be enacted in the auditorium representing the rhetoricals. and the whispering and confusion which prevails at this time, to let the pupils see themselves as others see them. The play which had been suggested. “Why the Chimes Rang,’ was not presented for Christmas as a patriotic play was considered more appropriate, as we could not find a suitable one we gave none at all. but a patriotic play was given at rhetoricals at the end of the first semester. This was “An Incident of Co. K in France. Raymond Stech, Fred Himmel-baum. Howard McCarry and Harry Tor-bofsky had the leading parts. The club read the “Merchant of Venice, and had the last act of it ready to give at rhetoricals. but decided to give “The Doctor in Spite of Himself instead. The leading characters. Esther Matyas and Fred Hini-mclbaum, both portrayed their parts exceedingly well, but no opportunity was offered to present this either. 38 The Orchestra. The beginning of the year certainly did not look encouraging to the orchestra. .Mrs. Parr, our leader, had a great problem on her hands. When tryouts came, there was only a handful of candidates. Finally the members were formed into a fine musical organization and everything went along at an A-l pace. But just when we were at the height of a glorious season, six of our senior members graduated and our club again found itself in serious straits. New. members were chosen and at the election of officers Joseph Rosen was elected president, Irene Vaigl, vice president, and Mortimer Mor-genstern, secretary and treasurer. We made up our minds to go ahead, and ahead we went. With the patient and instructive aid of Mrs. Parr the orchestra strove onward and rivalled the best of former years. Our appearances before the school have met with success and at the various concerts and entertainments we were never known to fall short of expectations. Flic prospects for the future are very bright. Most of the new members are Freshmen and Sophomores and all are good players. Home Garden Club. The Home Garden Club has just completed a very profitable term and you may thank this club for the plants which are in front of our own school. The club planted these bulbs and they are now up in spite of the many knocks they have received in the form of tramping feet. Interesting talks have been given by all the members on various subjects from trees down to soil. The “Scrap Book,” which was started last year, is half full If any one wishes to learn anything about gardening, we advise him to peep inside its covers. “A Day in the Woods’ is being planned for Decoration Day, when the gardeners hope to display other achievements besides farming. The Beta Kappa. The Beta Kappa did Red Cross work under the supervision of Miss KeflFer, the faculty advisor, and made scrapbooks under the care of Miss Svpher. However, it was not all war work, for the first meeting of every month was devoted to business and literary work. All together the members of the Beta Kappa have spent a busy and enjoyable term. Psi Omega. The aged veteran of the Great War sat before the fire, leaning on his cane, gazing dreamily before him. The door opened and a young lad entered the room, an eager look on his face, and several sheets of paper in his hand. “Gran daddy,” he began, “Hear me give my debate—you know a lot about debating, don't you?” The white-haired man turned to the boy and smiled as he held out his hand for the written sheets. “Well, rather,” he replied. “We Psi Omega members certainly used to have sonic real debates. ' “Psi Omega?” “That was back ‘befo’ de wall'—surely I've told you about our debating club at Central? Well, then! How could I have missed it? That was a great club. Just boys—and just Juniors. 1 made it when I was a I B. We sure had one “hot time” at the initiation. But the meetings weren’t all initiations. W e had all kinds of talks, on a variety of subjects; and there were lots of debates.” “What did you debate about them?’ “Well, war subjects were timely. Once we discussed the question as to whether the United States should built steel or wooden ships; and again, whether or no, reprisals against Germany should be enforced during the war. Then, there was the question of the Child Labor Laws, and governmental control of railroads. 39 We certainly enjoyed those debates. Mr. Hood was our faculty advisor. He taught English there at Central. Of course, there couldn’t have been any club without him. He always gave valuable suggestions on the art of debating—for it is an art which I remember to this day. J’ll tell you some of them and see that you observe them in your debate.” “Good! Lucky for me the other side has no grandfather who belonged to the Psi Omega, or Pd have a hard time of it.” “We did other things besides debate, though. The times were really hard, however, for any club—war times and the unsettled conditions were to blame. The Psi Omega struggled bravely through it all. though, and if the meetings could not be lu-ld at the regular time, they were called a little later anyhow. We contributed toward the furnishing of the 1). A. R. room at Chillicothe, too. “There were some mighty fine fellows in that club. Here—” and the old man rose slowly, “come along to my room 1 have a picture of the whole club there ' The two went upstairs to the veteran's room and the grandfather pointed out to the hoy a framed picture hanging on the wall. “These were the members who belonged to the Psi Omega when I was a II B. I graduated in '19, you know. There in the top row are Roy Yargcr and .Veil Frye; in the next row are Emc-rich Ritter. Lawrence Smith.—that's Mr. Hood, our factulty advior, in the middle. then Homer Meyers; and in the last row you see Elmer Feldman, Eli Rosen-kovitz, Arthur Henry. Joseph D'Errico. Howard Becrbower, Walter N oth and Aaron Gusman. “And Joseph D'Errico—there he is, was president. Arthur Henry this is he. was vice president. Elmer Feldman— here, was recording secretary; here’s Howard Becrbower, financial secretary. This is Roy Yargcr, he was sergeant-at-arms; and Fred. Himmclbaum and Arthur Henry, with President D’Errico were the executive committee. Yes, sir; that was a great club, all right. And now, I guess I’d better hear your debate ’ Treble Clef Club. The Treble Clef Club has had a very successful semester. Besides appearing at rhetoricals and at the Home Concert which was greatly enjoyed by those present, the club has sung at several patriotic meetings and has done its “bit” in this manner. + 1918—GLEE CLUB—1918. The Glee Club of 1918 started out with a rush at the beginning of the year, and conditions were very promising for a banner club. But the usual “hard luck streak’' came, and prospects became doubtful for a time. Thanks to its able director, Mr. Lambrith, the club was kept intact and made a fine season of it. The season’s work follows: On several occasions at school, and at both the February and June commencements the club appeared, and sang several numbers. A short concert was given at the Council Alliance for several hundred youngsters who, judging from the aplausc, seemed well pleased with the selections. The club took part in entertainments at the Woodward Masonic Temple and at the Kpworth Memorial Church. The club quartette sang at the Annual Banquet of the Ohio Industrial Arts Teachers. The Home Concert, as usual, was a huge success, and served as a fitting climax to a well-filled season. The club also did its little bit.” contributing $100 to the fund used for building the I). A. R. Lodge at Chillicothe. Ohio. Friendship Club. I he Friendship Club has been very active this term and has done excellent work under the able leadership of Miss Ward. Among the numerous undertakings all of which were successful, was the drama entitled “Esther. This was a success to such an extent that the intention of the club is to give it several more times. We sincerely hope that the high standard of this club will be maintained and that future years will be equally, if not more, prosperous. 40 f 1918—HI Y CLUB—1918. The Hi Y Club of 1918 has been without doubt the best ever, if not the best. Jt has been one of the most influential clubs in school and has surpassed all in the matter of service to the school. These are just a few of the things done during the past year: During the lunch hours, fellows kept order in the lunch room. Others patrolled the halls, keping them clear of stragglers. The “Come-Clcan” campaign which was a great success was promoted and the team captains in the Y. M. C. A. pledge campaign were ALL Hi Y fellows. They worked in co-operation with the Y. M. C. A. Meetings were held weekly at the East End Y. M. C. A., which consisted of a supper, talks by prominent men in all walks of life, business meetings of the club, and short, helpful talks by the club director. Mr. Pennington, the club’s advisor deserves special mention for the way in which he handled the boys. His talks were all on subjects which vitally interest all boys and each fellow can truthfully say that he has received much helpful advice. The Club met in connection with five other fine, wide-awake Hi Y Clubs, namely those from Glenville, Heights, Shaw, East Tech and East High, and all the fellows mingled as though they were from one school. Central also had a Freshman-Sophomore Club, which although not large, was a fine club. EAST HI-Y First Semester F. Barker (East) ...........President L.

' THE. BA5KLT NfcTAVCKS 42 EDITORIALS A SUMMING UP OF HIGH SCHOOL LIFE The great goal which we have been keeping steadily in view through all these years is now close at hand and with eager curiosity we stand waiting to plunge into the busy world which now displays itself to us in its most alluring colors. But before severing the thousand invisible bonds which attach us to this dear school lc us first give ourselves a clear account of what it has meant to us. There are two distinct {sides of school life which stand out in sharp contrast, namely the social and the scholastic. Some have found their main interest in one. others in the other. Again a few have struck the happy medium between the two. But every one has some enjoyable incident to carry through life as a remembrance of these care-free days. Intimate friendships have been formed, some to continue beyond the high school door, while the clubs and social activities have afforded an enjoyment hardly to be surpassed by anything in after life. In the classrooms we have experienced (quite rarely to be sure) that proud and rapturous feeling of having thoroughly mastered a certain subject. We have felt the pleasant thrills of victory when coming out with flying rolors from a struggle with a tough examination and have discovered that there are very few things in this world which cannot be accomplished by hard effort. Soon, all too soon, this wonderful thing called high school life will have become merely a dim. sweet memory amidst the turmoil and strife of the great outside world. The petty failures and successes, the honors and achievements which absorbed our minds during these years will be recalled with a smile by our maturer selves. And yet. though all the details of our high school life may be swept from our minds with advancing years the influence of it as a whole will leave its impression on the future career of every one of us. The things which we learned in the classrooms may be sooner or later forgotten by those who do not continue the same line of studies. But that higher something which was not studied from textbooks or graded by marks will remain with us. It is that same higher ideal which makes every true C entralite long to achieve some noble end. and which always will prevent him from committing a base and dishonorable deed. Therefore it is with a cheerful confidence that we take leave of the school which for four years has held us sheltered within its snug walls, so that only the distant rumblings of the storms raging outside have reached us. e are now ready to play our part in the world's drama, and whether it be a leading part or merely a minor one, our dear Alma Mater has given us the courage and inspiration to play it well. 43 A Plea for “Home Formals.” In accordance with the usual custom of “preaching” to the school in general through the editorial columns of the Annual we are now going to say a few words in regard to Senior Formals. For many years past there have been heated discussions and endless bickerings about the “inside-outside” question, whether the Formal should take place in the school or in some hired hall. Each class has decided it according to its own tastes and financial condition. The present class, influenced by the times (rather regretfully we must confess) gave up the idea of an outside Formal. But the affair has proved such a decided success that we wish to urge upon future Seniors the desirability of following our example. The essential purpose of the Formal is to assemble all the members of the class for one last intimate social time together. Then why not have it at “Home,” where every nook and corner has become endeared to us by four years tender associations? In the good old days when some of our fathers and mothers were students at Central there was never so much as a question raised about having an outside Formal, because it was taken for granted that such an important school affair should take place within the school itself. During the continuation of the war. of course, economic reasons alone are sufficient to necessitate inside Formals. But it is our aim in this article to impress the sentimental and emotional reasons, aside from any more practical considerations, which ought to establish once for all the custom of “Home Formals.” It is our sincere hope that future C'cntralites will take this well meant advice to heart and get the same satisfactory results as we the class of June, 1918. THE KAISER STARTS A FIGHT The Crown Prince, tired of social life. Didn't know what to do; His father Wilhelm saw his plight Ami said he had a clew. A plan I have to start a war. For conquest we will fight, On France and Belgium we will start; The world we’ll win with might. The Prince he thanked his sire so dear. And said “It was some plan;” Then went to tell Von Hindenburg And there he found his man. Yon Hindenburg with joy did hear, The news the Crown Prince told ; And said “I've wasted thirty years. And still am strong and bold.’’ They started out and made headway, Till people were aghast; Then many nations joined the war And men were bombed and gassed. Now Kaiser and his son may say. Just see how big I am; But they will meet their Waterloo When they meet Uncle Sam. Grace Mullett. Illlllllllllllllllll 44 THE FACULTY Hr. Edward L. Harris, Principal, 0110 Euclid Ave. 'Ir. Harry A.

Mrs. Herold-North, the Senator's wife, immaculately dainty in a dark blue and white satin sports suit, slowly ascended the steps of the broad veranda of the country club, carrying: her tennis racquet under her arm. Her companion, Mr. Cada, the director of the Cleveland V. M. C. A., arrayed in a white outfit and also carrying a racquet, called Mrs. Herold North's attention to a tall, scholarly looking man who was standing by the white balustrade, talking to Mr. Frank Kobrc, the prominent banker. I do believe that's Leroy Davis, the Secretary of the Treasury, lie must be here on a visit. So it is! replied Mrs. North. ‘‘Let’s speak to him. As the two approached him, Mr. Davis turned with a welcoming smile to his former classmates. (meetings had scarcely been exchanged whn Mr. Sam lYrskv. into manufacturer, joined the group. “ ell.” he declared, as he shook hands heartily with the Cabinet member, “it's good to see the old friends again ! Will you he with us long? Oh. and the Secretary of Treasury shrugged his shoulders and raised his evebrows with the old familiar motion Not verv long: about a week or two. I guess. Washington keeps a man busy.” Well.” snoke Mrs. North, “you must enjoy that little time, then. I wonder if you would have time to join my thcatcr-nartv I am giving Thursday a week? You'll meet some more of your old classmates, and some of them are in the company plaving at the Theater du Monde. That's where we are going. John Sheib-ley owns it. von know. Will I? laughed Mr. Davis. I certainly will come. And I’ve heard about this new Theater du Monde, too; it must be quite a magnificent piece of work. “It is, declared Mr. Cada. Benjamin Kaplan was the architect; Miss Golda Heller directed the scheme of interior decoration.’’ And that's a great company playing next week, too, said Mr. Pcrsky. The cast includes the Terpsichorean Twins, Celia Kleinman and Ruth Warren; Her trude Shulman, the singer; Hazel Guide, ‘the Empress of Drama’; Seville Fink, Hazel’s only rival ; Irene Esch, the second Annette Kellermann; Joseph Rosen, the incomparable comedian; Ladislaus Fodor, master of white magic, and Harry Tor bofskv, the popular matinee idol. It was produced by Mr. Balough. “Whew! gasped Mr. Davis, “I can’t afford to miss all of that! Don't forget to say,” interposed Mrs. North, that the piece was written by Herman Gabler, our well-known novelist and playwright. “Good!” exclaimed Mr. Davis. ‘ And bv the way, perhaps, you can tell me about some of the rest of the Class of 18? “Oh, yes,” quickly answered Mr. Kobrc. There’s Harry Epstein, proprietor of the Crimson Bear—when von want anything really good to eat, go over there with me. And Phillip Hungerford is owner of a factory—he’s been working on a new auto horn lately. It’s made in the form of a green frog, and perches on the hood of the car. croaks melodiously. He calls it the “Hi Y Honk. Memories of 18! quoth Mr. Davis. ‘‘‘Hunky’ has a retentive memory. ‘‘And then George Clark, chemist, and HeVn Stolte, geologist. Marguerite Rankin, botanist, and Rudolph Rubin, photographer, were recently members of a great exploring expedition for the Na- tional Geographic Society. And a great many of our class returned from the war not long ago. David Sheinbart, lieutenant; Morris Grey and Louis Harrison; and Mary Snavder, Norma Lindeman and Ruth Brown were Red Cross nurses. Of course, you've heard of Malvina Lang’s daring feats as an aviatress.” “I know some of the old friends, too,” said Mr. Persky. “Libbie Levin embarked on the uncharted seas of matrimony not long ago, with neither rudder nor compass, but with a few hundred thousand dollars, which 1 think will do iust as well. Ida Sisser and Anna Gru-rhensky are importers of silks; Irene Schleicher is making a great success in business—brokerage. And Gertrude Sap-hire owns the great Saphire Dairy Farms, which deliver their produce direct to consumers by the aerial route. ’ “Great!“ declared Mr. Davis. ‘‘Imagine the milkman dropping your milk on your back porch from an airship!” “No, they can’t do that,” smiled Mrs. North. Since no aircraft has yet been perfected which does not require some ground space upon which to alight, the company merely brings the milk from the farm into their stations in the city by the air line; it must then be delivered as it used to be.” “Don’t forget Mrs. Vandcrgold, said Mr. Cada. “She used to be Ruth Hiles.” “And the wonderful home Miss Esther Goldhamer. the architect, planned for her! Miss Augusta Braflf sold her the grounds; she’s in the real estate business.” ‘ Helen Ptak is director of the Recreation ground.” volunteered Mr. Cada, “and Mabel Fieg is instructor at the V. W. C. A. And you doubtless know that Winifred Baum is Minister to France.” “Oh, yes, I meet her at Washington occasionally and, of course, I meet Secretary of State, Jacob Steinberg, as well as your husband, Mrs. North.” “Speaking of educational pursuits,” said Mrs. North, “Esther Matyas is a Domestic Science instructor, Anna Krutchkoff is principal at Central, Sarah Brody is President of the Brodv Business College, Ida Brandeis is director of schools, and Meyer August is professor of philosophy at Harvard. “And then, Lawrence Murphy is chief of police, Max Davidovitz has become capitalist,” said Mr. Kobrc. “Beatrice Margolis is head manager at Tiffany’s. They say Frances Gardman is a private detective.” “That so?” exclaimed Mrs. North. “Fred. Shoff is chief of the Secret Service.” At the words “Secret Service” a quiet man who had been sitting nearby, apparently absorbed in a newspaper, lowered the paper imperceptibly and glanced keenly at the speaker. Under pretense of shifting the paper, he again raised it so that his face could not be seen. “Say, who is that over yonder on the golf course? asked Mr. Davis, pointing out two figures who stood out in bold relief on the wide spreading golf course that stretched out beneath and beyond the vantage point of the veranda. “They seem mighty familiar.” “I should think so,” replied Mrs. North. “That’s your old friend, Howard McCarry.” “But who is that with him?” All strained their eyes to make out the features of the other man ; and as they looked, they received the impression that the two men had stood oddly near each other for a moment, and that a white paper had been passed from one to the other. The man reading the newspaper received the same impression; so did a man seated in a car which was parked in the road below, and who had been watching the two golfers steadily since— well, since when, only the quiet man reading on the porch, could have told. “They’re coming up here,” said Mr. Cada. as the golfers turned toward the clubhouse and approached slowly. The group watched them with interest. As they drew nearer, they saw that the man they had not recognized was tall and bronzed healthily, and wore a somewhat foreign air. He seemed familiar to all. yet none could name him. Not until they were within hearing distance, and -•8 Mr. McCarry could be heard saying, “Well, Jerry, there arc some of your old friends waiting to welcome you home,'’ did they recognize Mr. Friedlander. Then there was general excitement. Mr. Friedlander had just returned from a protracted stay in South America, in the interests of the Brazilian Trading Company, of which he was president. Laughing and talking, the group moved indoors, the man in the machine settled back more comfortably in his scat; the man on the piazza still (seemingly) read his paper. The curtain had just fallen on the first act of the play at the Theater du Monde, Thursday night. In the box at the right sat the midnight blue robed Mrs. North, Mr. McCarry, Mr. Friedlander, Mr. Davis, Miss Minnie Goldenbcrg of the Goldcnberg Floral Co., and Mis Ruth McIntosh, heiress. In the box to the left was Mrs. Hiles-Vandergold, in a magnificent black velvet and champagne gown, with jewelry of platinum and amethysts; with her was Miss Florence Ross, mine-owner. in pale blue satin; Miss Frances Ciardman, in opalescent sea-green chiffon ; Mr. Sigmund Thorn, the dramatic and literary critic for the Cleveland World, a paper of which Miss Minnie Paley was editor; Mr. Arthur Glick, the financier, and Mr. Vandergold. Xot more than a few moments had elapsed after the curtain’s fall and the orchestra, led by Mr. Nathan Chalfin, had not yet begun its melodies, when the two parties recognized each other and immediately the party on the left vacated their box and removed to the box on the right, where room was gladly made for them. A general all-around greeting ensued, and a sort of reunion. Then Mrs. andergold exclaimed, ‘‘You are coming to my ball, every one of you, next Wednesday. Most of you have your ininvitations. 1 didn’t know you were in town. Mr. Davis and Mr. Friedlander, but we’ll overlook form this time. You will meet still more of vour old friends there.” “Say,” suggested Mr. Friedlander, ‘.‘Miss Stratton is my private secretary, and—” ‘‘Bring her, too, surely!” exclaimed Mrs. Vandergold, heartily. “We'll have a real reunion. And I’ve a couple of surprises in store for all of you, 1 think. No, I won’t tell now, what Here the curtain rose again, and the company turned their attention once more to the play led by Central Stars. And after the curtain had fallen for the last time, and the grand exodus from the theater set in, the same two mysterious men were following the party, who had watched Mr. McCarry so closely at the Country Club. Wednesday night had circled into the present, and in the brilliantly lighted ballroom of the palatial home of Mrs. Vandergold, beauty and briliance and enjoyment were supreme. Mrs. Vander-gold, arrayed in another exquisite creation of lavender-pink, lacy material, with sweeping bands of sable, and ropes of pearls,— Hostess Ideal,” as she was called, welcomed her guests and set them at their case. Mingling with the kaleidoscopic crowd were Mr. Mortimer Rosenblatt, the wealthy manufacturer; Mr. Arthur Kestenbaum, star reporter for the Cleveland World; Mr. Max Berg, the star photographer; Mr. Wayne-Tate, the movie producer; Mr. Eli Druckcr, the bakery owner; Mr. Hyman Goldstein, manager of the Lyceum Bureau; Mr. Henry Lipkovitz, the food inspector for the government; Mr. Lawrence Smith, the Boy Scouts’ Commissioner; Mr. Sam Rabinovitz, the publisher; Miss Gertrude Wold man, manager at Mays; Miss Eleanor Wittasek, director of “Today’s Households” fashion department; Miss Adele Taylor, the eminent designer of gowns; Miss Sarah Shapiro, city council-woman; Miss Ada Melaragno, the popular prima donna. Miss Stratton and Miss Ptak ound each other in the crowd, and danced as they danced in Central s halls at the Inormals in the dear dead days beyond recall; and around Miss Dorothy Cohen, President o the Cleveland Business W omen’s Club, Hocked 49 black-coated figures by the dozen, beseeching space for their initials on a dance program already crammed. Mingling with the crowd was the man who had watched Mr. McCarry from the machine by the roadside at the Country Club— now watching Mr. Friedlandcr. He seemed to have access everywhere. Mr. McCarrv had not yet arrived. Finally the orchestra leader, at a signal from Mrs. Vandergold, drew the attention of the company and Mrs. Vandcr-gold announced that her surprises were ready. At one end of the ballroom had been erected a stage; and now the curtains were slowly drawn aside, revealing Miss Mildred Dubin, the most popular prima donna of the day. The company applauded wildly. When quiet was secured Miss Dubin sang, and again that unrestrained applause burst forth, demanding encore after encore. Then a blue-coated messenger boy crossed and descended from the platform from a rear door, bringing his book, which Mrs. Vandergold signed. Now two more messengers appeared, bearing a large wrapped box, as big as themselves, which they set up on end on the stage. The company, now thoroughly curious, watched expectantly. At Mrs. Vandergold s direction, the messenger boys retired from the stage, and two liveried servants appeared and unwrapped quantities of paper from the box and removing the lid, drew from it a dark-curled life-sized doll, in filmy white and baby blue sashes. They walked it stiffly to the front of the stage, where it stood alone. The orchestra began to play softly: the doll moved a bit. jerkily. The company suddenly recognized in the Dancing Doll. Miss Mary Clark, who had lightly danced her way into the hearts of the American people, and thunderous applause broke out. drowning the music, so that it had to begin a second time. Miss Clark fairly outdid her own reputation that night, ami never was she more appreciated. Now Mrs. Vandergold signaled again; the lights grew dim; the rear curtains of the stage slowly parted, revealing a tableau that stirred every heart present to applaud once more for the recent glorious Victory of the Rhine and Peace of Dresden. Two figures formed a perfect copy of the beautiful poster exhibited at Central—and all over the U. S.—in '18: Liberty, with glow- ing shield, bearing the Croat Seal of the United States; clad in the Stars and Stripes, about to grasp the sword of preparedness extended to her by the kneeling Boy Scout. For a minute the pose was held; then, as the words “Victory and Freedom Forever ” appeared in glowing letters above the figures. Liberty grasped the sword, and as the Boy Scout rose to his feet and saluted, extended it triumphantly upward. The curtains once more were drawn together, and again the company returned to their merrymaking. Mr. McCarry entered in great excitement, and immediately pounced on Mr. Friedlander. “It’s all up, Jerry, was his greeting, “they’ve got them.” Mr. Friedlander appeared very much excited. “Arc you sure? When? How did it happen?” he cried. “Sure? I'll say so, retorted Mr. McCarry. “They’re gone, all right. Missed them from my safe just before I left. Hunted for ’em everywhere. W ell—’ Many were listening now, and Mr. McCarry, seeming to think that the situation needed explaining, went on : “My plans for my new airplane I had worked out. It would cause a perfect revolution in the realm of airplanes, for my model arose and descended absolutely vertically. Such ones would solve the problem of the plane for the aerial milkman. the private aerial car. and all everyday uses. I offered to sell the idea to the Ajax Company. They refused to give me my price—it was a big one but it was worth it—and they’re been on my heels ever since. I was shadowed from morning until night. Well. Jerry, here, came home about this time, and on the golf course not long ago, knowing we 50 were watched, he suggested I trick the Ajax Co. a litle by pretending to hand the plans over to him. We did this, and I thought we had fooled them; but I guess they were one wiser, after all ’ During this speech, the man who had been watching Mr. Fricdlander disappeared. “1 don’t want to spoil everybody’s evening with this,” concluded Mr. McCarry. but there’s going to be one grand law-suit—that’s all I have to say.’’ The star witness for the plaintiff, the plaintiff himself, Mr. Fricdlander, was on the witness stand, and was being questioned by the lawyer of national fame. Miss Helen Egan, whose powerful and convincing speeches were always marked by a decided Latin accent. On the judge’s bench, with impartial ear, solemn and serious of mein, sat Mr. Harold Oster. In the jury box were seated Mr. Victor Kaczorowski, the scientific farmer; Mr. Emmanuel Shapiro, the jeweler; Mr. Robert Zimmerman, the pugilist trainer; Miss Martha Macha, the trained nurse; the typewriting expert. Miss Sarah Flock, and her friend, Ida Hausman, the stenotype expert; Miss Bella Axelrod, historian; Miss Helen Lisy, a U. S. representative at the International Parliament; Miss Mollie Blusinskv, the Fruit Grower, and Mr. Morris Friedburg, the movie star. Among the audience were Mr. Meyer Gluchov, the ink manufacturer, and his friend, Mr. Carl Smith, the paper maker: Miss Amelia Goldstein, professional chaperone: Miss Harriet Eichenbaum. income tax computer; Miss Elizabeth Jacobson, finger-print expert; Miss Ida Fein, lady of leisure; Miss Jennie Gianno. criminal expert; Miss Lauretta Karris, the horti culturist; and last, but not least, the man who had been reading the newspaper at the Country club, Mr. Paul B. Soglovitz, secret service detective. W ith his occa sional inscrutable flicker of a smile, and detached, quiet air, he was watching and listening keenly to the progress of the trial, which seemed to incline now to one side, now to the other. A woman in llat-hceled shoes and large bow tie. carrying a kodak, entered the court room. She spoke a few words to Mr. Soglovitz, who rose to his feet and raised his ham! to command attention. “Your Honor,” he called out, “dismiss the case: the Ajax Company never took those specifications.” There was utter silence and astonishment. “How do you know they didn’t ? asked Mr. Oster. “Principally, because I DID.” replied Mr. Soglovitz. “1 shall explain all of it in a few words. The Ajax Company did not miss securing those plans out of choice. They have not been shadowing Mr. McCarry any longer than I have shadowed them. How I knew of tin-matter in the first place? Oh. wc hear a few things at headquarters occasionally. At the Country club, Mr. McCarry made a farce of turning the papers over to Mr. Fricdlander for safekeeping. It was so openly done, though, that I knew no Ajax man would be fooled very long. I just beat them to it, that’s all. Nor was I anxious to spare them the humiliation of a trial. As I expected, the Ajax people soon located the papers on me—or as they thought, on me. Luckily. I chanced to meet Miss Luke, and passed the papers on. At present, Mr. McCarry, vour plans arc at the patent office, where they should have gone, long ago.” S. O. S. CLASS HISTORY Four years ago on a gay autumn morn, In each breast sublime ambition born, Proudly they entered Central's portals, Envied, it seemed, e'en by the Immortals, For all their hopes were realized at last As through its gate they noisily passed. By keen eyes they were soon espied, And then farewell to all their pride! For they were hurried in mad race. From room to room, and place to place. Thus meekly they were forced to abide, The great arrogance of Sophomore pride. A year flew by, they passed all the tests, And then as Sophs threw out their chests. For they were the tyrannical rulers now, Questioning each Flat as to why and how, iln their youthful ignorance they dare Set foot in Central school, of the fair. As Juniors they received a pleasant ?) surprise. Which increased their chances of becoming wise, For the hours were lengthened from six to nine To help them in their studies; wasn’t that fine? But alas they were too dignified to study more, For already they knew Physics and History galore. The Study Halls and hours no longer few, Were followed bv cutting their rooms in two; 'Phis helping form a Junior High School, Where youngsters now learn the Golden Rule'1 With hearts resolved and beating high. For the day they’ll be in Senior High. Time quickly flew and the proud day came, When they reached the pinnacle of fame. 52 To be Seniors; there was nothing as good. As proudly on their pedestals they stood Surveying all with keen, discerning eye, As if they owned each nook of Junior High. Then came the approaching rumblings of war, Which caused their patriotism to soar To war work and movements of every kind They lent their support with a zealous mind, And even when called to give up spring vacation, They cheerfully did so for the good of the nation. An important landmark in their career, Which has made their last days so full of cheer, Is the day of their dear Mr. Harris' return To admire and love him they quickly did learn. Among the fond mem'ries which never will perish, I he image of him they will gratefully cherish. Before with this varied tale we are done There is one more event, a most pleasant one. Which should be recorded in letters of gold, No longer does terror its sway o’er us hold. As the end of the term approaches so near For exams, are abolished! (Isn’t it queer?) Thus happy moments fleet swiftly by, While that day fast approaches nigh When they must leave, but not for aye Each loved cranny of old Central High. But oft they will return to say more, Than these last words of, “Au Revoir.” CLASS SONG (To the tune of “Keep the Home-Fires Burning.”) W e are summoned from our schoolrooms, e are called from our school life. And we give our farewell message To our own dear Central High. Memories of thee are fondest, Thoughts of thee we love the best, And we ask of Time to spare Thy walls so gray but yet so fair. Chorus Brightest thoughts are those When we were together Children of one mother; Our own Central High. Paths that as comrades We were wont to roam Though today wc leave for aye Central’s still our home. Thy dark halls were filled with sunshine Sorrow fleeing fast away. There was harbored Knowledge’s goldmine. By thy walls so dull and gray. Wc give thanks to our dear teachers Who have tried their very best. That wc may trod Life’s rough pathway, Through the gateway of Success. Mary C. Snayder. IK. imiiininaniiiiiiirntitiniiHin All RHVOIR “At home or on foreign shore. Thoughts of you forevermore, Will always center in our mind; Though high our ambitions soar. Regretfully we say. “Au Rcvoir’’ To the school wc leave behind. “Though we go we leave behind us. Thousands yet who’ll come and go; They’ll uphold dear Central’s honor hrough the years come weal or woe. And that is why with cheerful eye We say, “Au Revoir, but not good-bye! “Only in dreams will they return. 'Fhose happy days for which wc yearn; But as life’s shadows daily flit by. Fond memories of you will ever lie Dear to our hearts as oft we will sigh: “Au Rcvoir. but not good-bye. Central High!” Harry M. Torbofskv. Class of ’IS. 53 Facts Worth Knowing. Nathan dial tin just can't look discouraged no matter what happens. Mildred Dubin is not Hungarian in spite of her speech at Khctoricals. Helen Ptak has never been serious five minutes at a time. Sigmund Thorn can answer a question before it has been asked. Maurice Fricdberg will never learn to pronounce “monsieur correctly. Gertrude Saphire had considerable trouble in picking out her formal partner. Mike Button has a tlowery vocabulary which he uses only in Latin translations. Ida Brandes entertains “Bolshevik' ideas on certain subjects (we arc merely quoting.) Sarah Flock has been in mortal fear all term lest somebody discover her ability to play the violin. Celia Kleinman struck a sly bargain bv dancing instead of speaking at rheto-ricals. Libbie Levin never misses a chance of making a speech. Howard McCarry is always pleased to be complimented on his dancing. Helen Egan cried when she happened to cut class by mistake. Sam Rabinowitz has often corrected the Chemistry book in its blunders. Paul Soglovitz is much livelier than he looks. Ben Kaplan loses his temper if he is contradicted 'no matter by whom.) Pauline Luke considers cutting class as quite an everyday matter. Gertrude Shulman can’t help becoming excited before a test. Irene Esch can easily frighten a certain teacher by her frown. Joseph Rosen thinks informals are the best part of school. Mabel Fieg has broken the record in English marks. Anna Gruchensky is always eager to act as substitute in the Junior High. Adele Taylor conscientiously attends all G. L. S. meetings. Harry Torbofsky is having his say quite often in the “Everybody's Say So’’ department of the News. When Hazel Guide was a fiat she was just as dignified and graceful as she is now. Minnie Goldenberg has never been to school a whole week without missing a single day. Jennie Guiamo couldn’t be bad’’ if she tried. Amelia Goldstein is not “stuck up although she “rises above” most everybody else. A ‘Punny ' Tale. Morris and Meyer one Gray August day, Past an old Thorn castle happened to stray. While the wind, as cold as an ice Berg blew, Meyer stopped to Button his shoe; But Morris said, “Aw, come on guy, There's a Goldstein full of ale at an inn close by. Now Meyer said, “Don’t give ale in a Goldstein, I’ll take a hot-dog sandwich for mine.” Just then along came a HungerFord With a king inside, who looked out and roared, “Hey, you two boys, come along with me, To my castle in Kaplan by the sea.'' So Morris and Meyer clambered in, And rode away in a dusty din. 'They stopped at an inn to sleep and sup; Letting the footman, McCarry, their baggage up. Quite early, however, the following day. They rose, and started on their way. But near the edge of a little town, The ancient HungerFord broke down, So Meyer, with his right Armstrong, Got out, and pushed the car along; And soon they came to the king’s house fine, Where they lived ever after On war bread and wine. 54 VANITY PILLS (Sugar coated or otherwise.) Preface— If in these rhymes we abuse you, Of many unfair things accuse you, Do not allow your anger to flare And of losing our temper beware. But think of the labor and time W hich it took us to make up your rhyme And try to be grateful to us, Instead of attempting to fuss. Bella Axelrod: Bella is so very demure, Her motto must be “slow but sure ’ For hard as little Bella may strive, She can never reach school before eight thirty-five. Victor Cad a: This gentleman sings just like Caruso, And he’s also a piano virtuoso. Perhaps if he’d allow his hair to grow’, He could get a job in a vaudeville show’. Anthony Balogh : ’Tony Balogh is a parson’s son But it can't be said that he acts like one For he has a smile for every girl, And they say lie's the sweetest boy in the w'orld. Ruth Miles: Some one said that Ruth was “square ' But we do not think it entirely fair. One good look and it will be found, That she is, indeed, decidedly round. Fred. Shoff: He's the sunshine of Central; And he’s also a star; For at basketball and football. 11 is rays shine afar. Augusta Braflf: Augusta is a merry miss, Always in a state of bliss, Knows her lessons off by heart, In every activity takes a part. Robert Zimmerman: “Bobbies such a brilliant boy, He is his teacher's pride and joy. While with his lovely, golden hair, He loves the girls and makes them care. Gertrude Shulman : She is a maid with eyes so dark, Who can sing lyrics like a lark, J ler form is so neat and her face is so sweet, With a pleasant smile every lad does her greet. Jerome Friedlander: Jerry is both tall and lean. Somewhat like a green string bean. He shows great tact in matters financial, And some day in business will be influential. Mary Clark: Mary has a lovely face, A charming manner, full of grace, Calm and cold, yet loving sport, For she is a girl of just that sort. How ard McCarry: Our Senior president is he, But some day may rise higher, For in a happy home to be, A husband is his great desire. Helen Egan: The mirthful twinkle in her eye, 'fhc sunshine in her very voice, Have made her dear to Central High, Beyond all other choice. Harry Torbofsky: Few equals has he as a debater, In Oratory he has no peer, He always was a girl “hater ’ But for suffrage he stands strong and clear. Gertrude Saphire: Tyrannous Virgil for her was a “cinch. ’ The honor roll missed her by only an inch, But that didn’t make her cross or blue, For Gertrude’s a sport all through and through. Sigmund Thorn: He often honors the Honor Roll, By having his name on that famous scroll As a talker he has great skill, But as a “bluffer” greater still. Mary Snayder: A maiden with a mind so pure, No worldly pleasures do her lure. Her tales in cunning fashion wrought, Hold many a moral and noble thought. 55 Ida Sisscr: She just can't be made to see Any fun in movies or comedy. A musician she is and a greater will be. Operas and concerts are her specialty. Joseph Rosen: At all entertainments he is quite a factoi For in our orchestra he plays, But what he wants is to be an actor, For that’s a profession that pays. Malvina Lang: Brown eyes, sparkling, Hashing, Dimples flitting, dancing, Red lips always ready for a smile, .Such a vision will last quite a while. (iertrude Woldman: Some like her for her winning grace, W hile others for her pleasant face. The combination of the two Makes her envied by not a few. Arthur Kestenbaum: He is full of pep and go. Some dancer, too. you know— He led the cheering at every game. And as an actor has gained some fame. Philip Hungerford: The kaiser has an enemy In little Hungerford, Who is great at making speeches Against the German horde. Sarah Brody: Often her eyes have a far-away look, As she gazes beyond into space; Surely she’s going to write a book. And win some prize in life’s eager race. Sam Rabinowitz: Chemistry holds no terrors for him, As it does for most every one else. In ravelling out its puzzles so dim His comrades admit he excels. Isidore Amdur: He wants to be a lawyer, And wrangle in the courts; Although he plays at football, He doesn’t care tor sports. Pauline Luke: The loss of the school will be keen When she is no more to be seen. The “Monthly” will miss her so sadly. And even the Owl will feel qirtc ba'My. Ida Brandeis: She is very outspoken and fearless, With a will-power decidedly strong. In proving her point she is peerless, For her opinions are never quite wrong. Mildred Dubin: She is a bright and cheery lass, Who became vice president of our class. Not only is she in studies a “shark,’ But some day in singing will make her mark. Norma Lindeinan: Reserved in nature. Yet there must be hidden A warmth for friends, To all others forbidden. Arthur Glick: Art Glick is full of chatter; He is always making noise. But then that’s only natural For brilliant little boys. Beatrice Margolics: She lias a willing ear for all your troubles Makes them seem like mere bursting bubbles. Believes in justice and fair play. From virtue's path could never stray. Benjamin Kaplan: At “math.’’ and “chem.” he is really a bear; When he recites the rest just stare At this wonderful Kaplan boy, Who plays with a theorem as if ’twere a toy. Vera Stratton: “Stratt” they call her sure enough; A wonder she is at athletic stuff. Ever ready our purses to relieve, But in place of money a pleasant smile she'll leave. Leroy Davis: He is rather friendly with the girls; Likes to do their Latin and pull their curls. Yet when asked whence comes his winning way, The boy is so meek he refuses to say. 56 Rudolph Rubin: He knows his mathematics, And knows it pretty well, Till called upon to show it. Then nothing can he tell. Eli Druckcr: He is quiet and truthful. Good at business, too. Very frank and friendly. And liked by not a few. Tender Memories. The weary task is endedd Or lessons drear and dry A thousand mcm’rics blended Call forth one yearning sigh. A sigh for jolly happy things That mingled with the grind The sunny side of schol life clings So strongly to the mind. Forgotten are the gloomy days, When nothing went just right, When you were told that mark to raise And had to cram all night. You only think of grand old clays When Fortune seemed to smile, And teacher gave a word of praise For guessing ( ?) right once in a while. Oh. yes! in spite of exams, tough. We had some great times here. And we just hate the getting off As our stopping place draws near. Puzzling Questions. Is Ida Hausman a house woman as well? Of what is Sarah’s Flock made up?

The hall was “all dressed up” so that we hardly recognized it—yet it was familiar enough to make us feel quite at ease, so we were subjected to (none of the stiffness imposed by an unfamiliar, rented hall. From palms to waxed, white floor, the setting for the rainbow-tinted dresses was all that could be desired; the orchestra and punch suited us to a “T”. And following a custom instituted long ago, before the “Outside Formal’’ fad, the upper hall was all decked out with screens, and couches, and cozy corners, besides a fish-pond and fortune-telling booth. Here might the ance-weary youths and maidens wander for a bit of rest and quiet. But for those who have enough of “rest and quiet” outside, there was “something doing” every minute. Two features that contributed very largely toward making the evening as enjoyable as it was, were a dance (encored, to be sure) by Sylvia Jaffee, our stellar Junior, and some “reg’lar songs by a reg'lar guy.” And two other factors contributing immensely to the success of the whole affair, were Mr. Lewis, our faculty ad visor, and his wife. They were “right there with the goods” every minute. Yes! Those contrary folk who predicted failure of the “Home Formal” idea were certainly sadly disappointed, for the whole evening was perfect in every detail, enjoyable every minute; and the Formal Committee may rest well assured that the date, Saturday, May 4, 1918, will remain long engraven on the memory of many a member of the cl o 8—and some not of the class of ’ IS. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiihiioiiiiiiiiiiiiii DEBATING NEWS Although there have been two defeats chalked up against Central in debating this year, we nevertheless see that debating is coming to itself once more in this school. The students are awakening to an appreciation of the value of argumentation. As a result, there has been a marked increase in debating among the different rooms of our school. In our last debate, our debating team, composed of II. Torbofskv, F. Biskind, 1 . Soglovitz and S. Thorn worked untiringly and were confident of getting the decision over West High. The school as a whole took a special interest in this debate, because our best debators and orators were to participate in it. The eventful night of the debate was soon here and A large crowd filled our auditorium. The chairman now announced the question, which was: “Resolved: “That among the pur- poses which the United States and its allies seek to acomplish by means of the present war should be included the dismemberment of the Turkish Empire.” Central upheld the affirmative and West the negative side of this question. The first, second and third speakers of both teams had presented their argu-judges handed their decisions to the ments, and all present were positive that chairman. The chairman opened the votes and began to read them : he became confused and re-read them several times—“Can that be possible? ’—But he was forced to announce the decision—announce it several times- before the surprised and disappointed audience realized what had happened Central had lost! Sigmund M. Thorn T8. 60 EVEN A FORD HAS ITS DAY 1HAT ccrtainment one jolly good time hodie. Days wie dicser sind wiirdig exspectandem for, being tired and retired for. The Magister relinquit me setting outside the tableau-show heute afternoon ; usually il me prend avec lui in seincm Rock-tasche; mais anjourdhui il left me outside for the glorious spring I-uft. J'ai irT enuie de videntem les French heels go past, so constitui to have a little adventure omnis my own. So, off ivi. Je hat the adventures, omnis recht. Erste, I indulged in a parvus bit of camouflage. Je vidi some viri unloading coal, so I rolled circiter in the atri pulva that erat scattered circiter, et emerged ein colored Ford. Magister mihi would not have known me. I laufte into a restaurant iuxta. and seeing a table that suited me, seated myself daran. Un gargon venit mit unc serviette auf le bras, and gave me the time table, et je ordered omnia. Post a longum tempus, il venit wieder, portans an ingens tray, et je ate bis my brass band was stretched wie es ein rubber band war. Aber after a dum, je vidi le garcon, et deux of his sociorum euntes mit eineni bill tarn longus ut quand es war rolled tight around and circiter, it erat so groz wie ein motor truck tire, et requisivit drei Maenner ihn zu portare— dann wurde ich perterreri et sprang auf et laufte wie Notus out of le restaurant, et les gargons, et toute le monde, me folgten. Erat ingens hubbub. Per Euclid Avenue, et (lurch Ninth Street, ie laufte, et les gendarmes et les gargons et populi Clevelandi me post. Jc conatus sum de me conceal under a sandwich sign—board, aber a parvus puer me spied, et magna voce howled. So out ich ran un autre temps, et le chase fang an again. Demum jc ran ccleriter circiter ein corner, and ran up a telephone pole. Omnes populi kamen running around ; nemo aber me viderunt up en plein air on the sum-mam of le telephone pole; et i s lautten past. Then je ran along on les wires ad une autre partem urbis, et desccndi. Ici je met un autre Ford, an old amicus of mine. We got into an interssant discussion about the helium. It erat non longum dum nos in terribilem brawlem engaged. Multi populi stopped ut pug-nam viderent. Nous pugnavimus el was awful. Il me kicked in les running boards, je blacked both his lamps. End-lich left ich ihn in pacibus, et l’ambu-lance corps tulit away the remains ad scrap-heap. Je was leaning against einum post, getting my breath, quand magistcr meus me found. It erat ulli peeved. Il me reprouvait soundly. “Quand vous recuperate,” dit-il, “j‘ irai in restaurant ici et etwas zu essen habebo.” “Omnia dextra ’ sagte ich ora mea. Il went darein. Post an horam, kain il running out, avec une dicke femme par le main. I Is jumped in, et mon maitre sic eft'atus cst: “Ad court-house et prox-imum minister, little Ford. Age! I! Nous nous marions. Ah. such cooking! Haste, Ford, ehe elle changes her ani-mum ’ Talia efFatus, il me cranked, et away je sailed. As a brcvis-cut, ie laufte (lurch den 5 and 10, and jumped over alios machines. Tous avions un beautiful ride, iniho credite. Demum nous arrivions au court-house, et il procura le license. Dann laften wir omnes tres in haste ad minister. Je ran up on the porch, and klopftc magna cum vi; es gab nullam response. Jc tooted; noch kein answer. At last je m‘ enniuas et climbed in the Fenster and woke up le minister. Il sat up im Bette et married mon maitre et la dicke femme, qui, dit-il, pouvait cuisinicr melius aliqua il avait ever met. Dann gab er sie son blessing, et mon maitre gal) ihm son spare cash, et nous went out the window again and home. As; il ertait the end of a Parfait Dies! Mon maitre thinks tarn multum of me for stopping in front of cam restaurant, il will keep me as a pet, and never run me again. I will have a pretty blue ribbon tied in a bow around my engine and have 61 a nice silk cushion to sleep on : and the mistress will teach me to sit upon my hind wheels and honk tor a piece of sugar. And since I need not run errands any more, I'll never have to be tired again. Yes! it was a great day. The master has not discovered as yet, that he made a mistake this morning and filled my tank with old Bourbon from a jug in the garage, but then, he is so pleased with his wife’s ooking, he will never be sorry he filled my tank with alcohol instead of gasoline! S. O. S. CAMOUFLAGED ROY BURTON had been examined for the aviation corps. He had failed just because fas he said), he could not, while blind folded, keep both feet on a spinning piano stool, when they shot off a revolver against his head, lie now realized that he would not be drafted for the infantry because he was going to make munitions next week. He smiled bitterly when he saw these headlines in the newspaper: “Air Army Ready Soon”, lie shook his head. He had been down to the aviation field and had seen how inexperienced were the men and how clumsy the machines, lie himself had a little Columbia and could My rings around any of them. He told himself that those old tubs would have just as much chance against at Fok-kor or a Taubc as a canal boat would have against a battle cruiser. One night some weeks later, he went into department of the munition works where he was really not entitled to go. But being employed there, he averted suspicion as to his motives. When he left he took something away. Several days later the officer in charge missed some trinitrate of tolnol. It could not be found. The officer finally concluded that there was an error in bookkeeping. He changed his figures and thus changed the destiny of a man making time fuses. After work was over Roy always went home where he lived alone, his parents being dead. He occupied a little bungalow behind which was the barn where h:s monoplane was kept. Night after night he toiled to make certain changes in front of the fuselage. At last it was done. “Some man,” said Roy Burton to himself, “must sacrifice his life and his good name to awaken the country in some spectacular yet convincing manner.” He would be that man. The following day on his way home he stopped in a costumers, and made several purchases, stating that he was a movie actor. Day after day he stopped in. till at last, when he was sure there could be little cause for suspicion, he bought a German helmet. After arriving home, he went into the barn and painted two crosses on each of his monoplane’s wings. Then after increasing the pneumatic tube of a camera so that lie could take a picture of himself, and after putting on the helmet and drawing out the monoplane so that its crosses could be plainly seen, he pressed the bulb. The editor of the “Herald” two days later received a letter marked “Positively personal.” A minute late he was gazing spellbound at a picture of a masked man. Immediately behind him was the outline of a Fokkor, and also there was a letter challenging the American airmen to battle over the city of New York. To add to this, it was rumored that an enemy submarine was off the coast. Newspapers on the street disappeared as if by magic that day. The following day at noon Ray complained of sickness and went home. Hasitlv donning his aviation clothes and helmet, he took out his monoplane and ascended. Swift as a bird the Columbia 62 tore through the air and soon he was over the city of New York. So as to make sure that he would never be unmasked, the Masked Aviator had filled the machine gun on the front of the fuselage with the trinitrate of tolnol which he had stolen from the factory where he worked months before. One bullet striking that terrible explosive would end Kay Burton, air pilot, and every atom of his machine. He laughed blithely as he turned the nose of the machine down to dive upon the city where five millions waited his appearance. A mile below lay the harbor. Far in the distance ahead of him over Fort Wadsworth and Hamilton were flying the flags of his country. Never had the emblem of liberty looked so beautiful. He looked below. The sapphire sea shone with gem like beauty. From his height he could peer far down into the depths. There were no ships on the surface. His challenge and the report of the submarine outside the harbor were waking up the nation to a sense of its gigantic helplessness. ‘ Some day.” he told himself, “no submarine will flare approach our shores, “for the aeroplane as it should be built will be just the protection vve need. I could see one, now, if His thoughts congealed into reality. He was looking down upon a subamrinc. It was coming to the surface a mile ahead of him. The hatchway opened in the conning tower. A man stepped out on the deck and swept the sea, land and sky with his glass. Overhead swept a great gust. Ray's machine leaped in the air. He sideslipped, recovered and went on. They were firing at him from the shore. The firing, however, seemed to dissolve the last doubts in the mind of the lieutenant on the enemy submarine. Others of the crew came pouring out of the tower and although the anti-aircraft gun was pointing upward at him. and in easy range, they did not fire, but cheered instead. Then Roy realized tha in reality they took him for one of the enemy airmen. He realized that the deception was complete—helmet, crosses, and all. They brought out a banner and waved it wildly as he drew nearer. Something in his brain snapped. He forgot what lie had started out to do. It was the sight of the alien flag the enemy flag—the Hag which his countrymen would face and die that did it. He raised his eyes for an instant to look at the other flag, “(io on! (Jo on!’’ its folds waved to him. Roy Burton, airman, “with no nerve and too many nerves,” turned the nose of his baby Columbia straight down. He was flying faster than any true Fokkot ever flew when he struck the submarine head on. 'The trnitrate of tolnol exploded. A gevser of water shot upward, and the merciful sea swallowed the wreckage of the submarine and the Masked Aviator. Sidney Fink, ’20. AS THE SENIOR SEES IT— Tell me the talcs of my Freshman year Long, long ago. The things I did that were naughty and queer, Long, long ago. For I’m a Senior, both gray and old. Bent with the burden of knowledge untold. To my eager ears the stories unfold, Of long, long ago. The Soph with looks and manner gay, O’er freshie rules with haughty sway. lie tries to imitate the talk, Of Junior proud—and Senior’s walk. Holds high his head at childish pranks, For soon he’ll enter the Junior ranks. But we may smile; beneath we see, He is timid and green as he can be. S. R. 18. 63 BELFRY One of the most memorable meetings in the history of the school took place on Wednesday, April 24, when Abbe Flynn, famous French army chaplain, addressed an auditorium filled to over-owing. In a most entertaining manner the Abbe gave some valuable information about trench life. He especially emphasized the sacredness of duty even if it appears in the petty form of lessons and school cxerecises. The Abbe seemed to be the very incarnation of the splendid pluck and courage of heroic France. At the end of his speech the pent-up enthusiasm of the listeners burst out in a literal thunder of applause. The whole school, led by Mr. Harris, then gave three resounding “rahs” for France. Did you happen to be one of the fortunate ones who caught a glimpse of the aeroplane that time when it soared past the windows of Central? What a strange world we arc living in when a commonplace recitation may be interrupted suddenly bv a general rush to the hvindows to look at a real, live aeroplane! Seniors threw all their stately dignity to the winds at the first announcement of the overwhelming news 'that final exams have been done away with for II A’s as well as for the rest of the school. Everywhere, in hall and classrooms, they were giving vent to their felings in various “acrobatic” stunts, to the great amusement of their teachers. We venture to say the teachers felt much th same way about the matter, but chose to keep it to themselves. Besides the self-evident reasons for rejoicing there was still another one, for Seniors. Xo longer would teachers be “all in” at the end of the term with the strain of marking examination papers. This meant that they would be able to bend all their energies towards making Class Xight and Commencement a grand success. OWL Our Four-Minute Men. On Tuesday, April 30, nine boys chosen as representatives of the various English classes, delivered four-minute speeches in the auditorium to boost the sale of Liberty Bonds. The speakers were the following : Sanford .ticker, Julius Rabinowitz, Mortimer Rosenblatt, Herman Bourchek, Milton ticker, Monroe Markowitz, Sidney Andorn, Herman Brody, Max F.ssin. All of them did so remarkably well that the audience was in quite a bewildered state of mind when the time came to put down their votes for the best speaker. Two different verdicts were rendered, one by the school as a whole and the other by a committee of the faculty. Monroe Markowitz was picked out as winner by the pupils, while the teachers chose Mortimer Rosenblatt. Since actions always speak louder than any words, Mortimer had put a most impressive climax to his excellent speech by purchasing a $• ) bond right on the stage. Sdney Andorn, the Freshman representative, a tiny lari with a shrill voice, made an especially great “hit” with his spirited appeal. Anybody trying to form an opinion 'of the Seniors according to their talk during the week before the Formal would put them down as a most frivolous bunch of young people. Dances, dresses and partners were the chief topics of discus-Oftcn while a recitation was going on some girl would be teaching a dance to another by means of a diagram on a piece of paper or by tapping out the steps with her fingers. This and many other annoying symptoms of Formalitis G4 caused the teachers to heave a collective sigh of relief when the grand affair was at last over. The home concert this year was the best yet given in our school. We know this is a much abused phrase repeated after every performance of this kind. But this time it must be said in all sincerity that the concert surpassed any preceding ones because it had a special mesage of patriotism to convey to the audience. The stirring songs of the times were rendered with remarkable pep and zest both by the lilec Club and the Treble Cleff Club. INFORMALS Our informals this term were just as informal as they could be. In order to get in as many of them as possible without any extra expenses, refreshments and a hired orchestra were dispensed with. After all, the dancing counts more than the “cats” with most people, as was proved by the general enjoyment at these semi-monthly informals. The attendance was unusually large every time, and many a bashful youth will look back gratefully to these jolly occasions as his first initiation into the delights of one stepping or waltzing. iiminniiHnDnuiBfKiiit INTERCLASS BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT Ihe Interclass Basketball tournament this year was a decided success. As in football, the Junior Class won the title. As for the games, too much praise cannot be given them. In the first game the Juniors walloped the Senior quintet by a IT to Li score. The following day the Freshmen defeated the Sophomores, 23 to IT, in one of the roughest games seen at the Central floor. The Sophomores led the yearlings by a 12 to 4 score at half time, but the flats won by exhibiting a splendid fighting spirit. The final game between the Freshmen and Juniors was played on April lf , before a crowd of 300. It was a great battle, the final score being 33 to IS. Judging from the form exhibited by the losing five it looks as though Central has basketball material for years to come. Mickey Marco and Xate Lipshitz were always in the limelight for the losing five while Garber and Phillips starred for the Juniors. HHBHBflBBflllflllBnflnfllllllll The boys of the debating teams were awarded rings at rhetoricals on Friday. April • . Mr. Ozanne was presented with an inscribed gold penknife by the Debating Club, in appreciation of his invaluable help and efforts. Ihe following boys were awarded rings: Harry 'lor- bofsky, Elliott Biskind, Paul Soglovitz. Sigmund Thorn. Myron eitz, Lawrence Murphy, Leroy Davis, Monroe Markowitz and Arthur Kestenbaum, the manager of the team. 65 iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ............................................... BASKETBALL When the first call for basketball candidates was issued by Coach Chaunccy Lewis, a large squad of twenty-four men reported for duty. Among these were four cagers from last year's championship team, Capt. Shott. Civiletto, Wolfe and Lieberman. Lieberman was unable to play at the beginning of the season so this left two places on the team to be filled by new men. The chief candidates for these positions were Lipson, Philips and Bolasny, forwards, and Garber, Marcs and Gemerchek, guards. All these men were good performers, but Lipson and Marcs obtained the preference and started the season as regulars. Before the regular season opened our boys met the Cathedral Latin School at the Last Lnd Y. in a practice game and came out victors by an overwhelming score. Then in the first Senate game we met the fast Commerce quintet and showed that we again had a championship team by defeating the West Siders by a 32 to 15 score. Next Central met Lincoln, a school which, so the newspapers said, was going to beat us. Lincoln played a good defensive game, but apaprently forgot that Wolfe was playing and he proceeded to score sufficient points to give the Red and Blue a 20 to 11 victory. Now there came the most important Senate game of the season, that with Last Tech. In this game Central met her first defeat by a city team in three seasons. It Vas also Civilctto’s last game as a Central athlete and he was presented with a gold watch as a reward for his valuable services in the past three years. Besides being Chivvy’s last game this also proved to be the last appearance of .Mares ami Gemerchek. The game was the fastest and most exciting seen in these parts for some time and Tech won by a meager two-point margin, 20 to 18. The next game was with our oldest great rival, East. The Blue and Gold team did not seem at all able to stop the attack of ‘‘Shoffi Co.” and were defeated rather easily by a 27 to 11 score. Then came West with what was supposed to be a very strong team, but they met the same fate as their predecessors, being beaten 20 to 10 by our boys. Next on our program came West Tech, but in the meantime Commerce had defeated East Tech and we went into a tie for first place. West Tech was easily beaten by a score of 24 to 7, in a fast and scrappy game. Now we met South, determined to hold our position at the top in the Senate race and as was expected the Reel and Blue came through to victory, this time by a 25 to 12 count. The last league game of the season was that with Glenville and the Central boys, playing their usual fast and snappy game, brought the season to a good ending by winning 37 to 23. This victory insured for us the right to share the championship and trophy with Last Tech for the next year. We did not play our regular annual game with University School this year owing to the fact that the U. S. boys had been vaccinated the week that the game was to be played. After the close of the Senate, a homc-and-home series was arranged with South High, the champions of Pittsburg, in order to decide the intercity champions. The total points scored in the two games were to decide the championship. 66 Our boys left for Pittsburg very confident in their ability to win, but met with very bad floor conditions and a very good team and lost 43 to 31. This meant that they must win the next game by a margin of thirteen points in order to take the series. But they returned determined to win and show their Cleveland admirers that that defeat was all a mistake. The next week our players went onto the big floor at the Central Y. M. C. A. confident in their ability to win and proceeded to play rings around the Pitts-burgers, winning 34 to 17, and taking the series with five points to spare. This brought to Central an intercity championship for the third year in succession.

Central 31 Pittsburg 43 Central 34 Pittsburg 17 05 00 WITH A CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM TO PITTSBURG (Editor’s Note: We are indebted to Arthur Kestcnbaum, who accompanied the team, for this account of the game at Pittsburg.) I have often read about a championship team on the road but to be with one was the height of my ambition. With fourteen men on this trip we found plenty of amusement all the way. With the start of the train from Cleveland, the boys soon started a little game of cards, sociable of course, because Coach Lewis and Mr. Winkler and Mr. Riley were in the game. At the other end of the car, the famous quartette entertaind us musically. We arrived in the Smoky City at about 1 o'clock. The South High principal awaited our arrival and we were rushed into a hotel to rest a bit. e weren’t there five minutes until we found half of the crew missing. It would take about five steps to locate them—in the dining hall, satisfying their appetites. After scouting the city in the principal’s 67 machines, we ended up in the (lining hall for another big feed. The time for the big game was drawing near. Our guides directed us to the gym., if it may be called such. The gym: was located on the second floor of a market house. Under each basket, a .stove was blazing to beat the band. Upon our arrival we were given the ‘oncc-ovei ” with a peculiar noise (?). At one end o the gym. a boxing arena was erected, probably for us, if we won. At the start of the game, our boys found that the referees and not the South players were their opponents. These referees probably learnt the game at some tea party for .VI fouls were called on the quintets. Unaccustomed to such playing our men feared to play a strenuous game and consequently the score. But the worst was vet to come. The • market house, lacking showers, forced our men to walk through the street to showers three blocks away. Our boys drew more attention on the street than a Barnuin Bailey circus would in Cleveland. The next morning we started out to see the city on foot. With wide-eyes we strained our necks looking at the skyscrapers that Cleveland plans to have. We ended our journey with a feed in a nearby restaurant. On returning to the hotel, we found Coach and Mr. Riley sleeping. It wouldn’t be fair to state what happened when we arrived, but------. With a hearty good-bye, we left the Smoky town bound for home. With good singing, the time soon passed and at 0 o’clock we were in Cleveland. Tennis. After three years. Central High will again be represented by a tennis team. Many net men turned out for the team when Manager Kestenbaum gave the call for tryouts. Front the outlook, the Red and Blue tennisers should land well up in the Senate race this year. Baseball. The first baseball practice was held recently and the following men turned out: Frank Civilctto. Abe Bolasny, Anthony ptovic. Norman Minor. Mickey Mairo, August Brookseikcr. Chester Mares, Sam l.iebcrman. Herbert Seelinger. Although a complete program has not yet been arranged, since there is no regular Senate league, still several very good games have been scheduled for the near future. Individual Write-Ups. FREDERIC SCHOFF (Captain.) Weight 165. Height 5 ft. 11 in. Shoff is one of the greatest athletes that Central has ever turned out. He has been all-scholastic center for three years and this season was both captain of the Central team and captain of the All-Scholastic team. He has also been a star in football, track and swimming. His graduation will be a great loss to the team. FRANK CIVILETTO Weight 165. Height 5 ft. 8 in. Chivvy has also been one of the great Central all-around players. He has been an all-scholastic guard for two seasons and would undoubtedly have obtained the place again this year if he had been able to play the full season. Unfortunately he could only play in three games before he was over the age limit and his loss was greatly felt by the team. PHILIP WOLFE Weight 124. Height 5 ft. 6 in. Wolfe is another star player who made the all-scholastic team, as a forward for the first time this year. (Although one of the smallest players in the Senate he is also one of the fastest). He is captain elect for next year and is sure to make a fine leader for the team. We wish him success. SAM LUMBERMAN Weight 150. Height 5 ft. 7 in. Licberman is still another veteran player who returned this year. Although ineligible at the beginning of the season he was ready to step into Chivvy’s shoes at roving guard when midseason rolled around and gave a very good account of himself. He will be back next season. HARRY LIPSON Weight 130. Height 5 ft. 7 in. Although a new man to Central students, Harry was well known in amateur basketball circles before this year. He earned a regular position as forward and and played a very consistent game throughout the season. He does not graduate. CHESTER MARES Weight 155. Height 5 ft. 8 in. This was Mares’ first year at basketball, but he proved that be is a very capable player, always ready to mix in every play. Unfortunately he was lost to us at the middle of the season via the examination route, but he will be back next season and will without doubt win a place. 68 JACK GARBER Although a member of the second team at the beginning of the season, Joe was given the job at standing guard after the midyear examinations and gave a very good account of himself. He will return next year. ABE BOLASNY W eight 138. Height 5 ft. 4 in. Bo did not get much chance to show us that he was a valuable player, but he certainly did prove it to those who saw his performance in the Pittsburg series. He displayed ability in working the ball down the floor and accuracy in basket-fshooting. He will be lost by graduation. LAWRENCE SMITH (Manager). Although he was not as much in the limelight as the players, “Larry” did a great deal of hard work and earned hir sweater just as much as the players. He had to take care of all the players’ equipment and of the balls and did it in a most efficient way. He will graduate. EDWARD GEMERCHEK Weight 150. Height 5 ft. fi in. Eddie was a second-team man last year and this year acted as an understudy for Mares. He did not get much chance to show his ability, but what chance he did get he used to great advantage. He left school at the midyear. GIRLS’ ATHLETICS How would you like to make a visit to the girls’ gymnasium and watch them at their work for a while? All right, we’ll go. There is a class there now, about ready to begin working. As we open the door, various shouts greet us. If it were earlier in the term, during the winter days, those shouts would be something like the following: “Here, that mat goes under this rope,” “Where, under the sun, do you fasten this ladder“No. squad three should be practicing the shot-put. and squad two the high jump,' since the ropes, ladders, high jump and shot-put formed some of our chief diversions during the cold weather. Now. however, since there’s nice weather, and baseball is our most important sport, such sounds as these meet our ears as we enter the gym : “Our side's up to bat first, ’ “I’m first baseman.” “Aw, come on, you know me; let me play catcher this time; she played it last time.” The £ rls all hailed the season with delight, when the time came once more to go outside and play baseball, and how glad (?) the teachers on the .South side of the building must be to have us out there on the field once more. They can step 69 to their windows, and, almost any period of the day, see a World’s Series Game free of charge, and our gentle (?) voices certainly must be company for them. Well, while 1 have been talking with you, the period is over, and the girls have passed on to their classes. It is now almost time for Girl’s Leaders Class to begin practicing, so we may as well stay here now. The Leaders Girls are working especially hard now, for you know their exhibition took place recently. The girls are now assembled ready for work, and seem to be scattered about in little groups. The main questions asked in most of the groups are: How do you do that second step?” ‘Xow what is the next step? I haven't been here for so long that I have forgotten the little bit I did know about this dance.” After a few minutes of these “private lessons,’ a whistle is heard and Miss Watkins appears and calls out, “Fall In !’ How well the girls obey this command! Why, I really believe it didn't take them more than ten minutes to “fall in.” Well, now that they have started, let us leave them, but not before wishing them the greatest success in their work. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii gf THE CHESTNUT BAG % Absence makes the marks grow rounder. —Student Lantern. “Why didn’t you run faster when the cops chased us last night?” “There was a bullet ahead of me and I was afraid of running into it.” Oh. you Latin Lessons!

It was the first week that the Jinkscs, who had fallen heir to considerable valuable property, had been in their new home. .Mrs. Jinks was giving a dinner party with the fond hope that from this occasion she would be fairly launched in society. “Lena. said Mrs. links to her new cook, “be sure to mash the peas thoroughly tonight.” “What, ma’am.” exclaimed the amazed cook. “Mash the peas?” “Yes, that is what I said, Lena, mash the peas,” repeated the mistress.
