After an hour spent in dancing esthetic or English folk dances, the remaining time is alloted to either apparatus work, tactics or perhaps a game of twenty-one. But whatever kind of work it may he. it is all equally enjoyed by every member of the club. Even after the dreaded phrase “That's all for this afternoon” comes to our ears, there are some who remain on the gym floor and plead for a few minutes of social dancing, which is often granted. The work of the term has been very successful thru the faithful and patient effort of our dear leader.

The Song Shop was an original sketch which proved to be one of the best ever produced at Central. The Quartet which made a tour of the Home Rooms gave a few selections which were very well received.

Apollo P i Omrpt Debating Society Psi Omega Debating Society It was at a meeting of Congress in 1945 that a middle-aged man stood in the House of Representatives delivering one the greatest speeches ever heard in the House. At the end of his speech, which lasted three hours, the House broke out in a uproar. Our speaker was one of the greatest orators produced in this country since the days of Henry Clay. At the conclusion of his speech, he was surrounded by men eager to shake the hand of a man so renowned the world over. At last only one admirer was left. Shaking hands strenuously with the orator. the man inquired, “Where did you first gain training in speaking?’’ The orator's blue eyes sparkled as he recalled his younger days. “Well, he said, “It was in my Junior year at Central High, Cleveland, Ohio that I was admitted as a member into the Psi Omega Debating Society. We had a great club then. Mr. Hood, then an English teacher at Central, was Faculty Advisor and it was mainly through his efforts that I acquired an interest in debating. Although hindered by many obstacles, including the “flu, we had a very successful year. When I was in the club. Bolshevism was threatening the world, and I remember plainly a debate on. ‘Resolved, that the U. S. should intervene in Russia and take control of the Government pro tempore.’ The negative won. Also we had much experience in extemporaneous speaking, which helped me to become a fairly quick thinker.” “Well,” said the other man, “I must go now, sorry I can't hear some more about your club.” He walked out of the room leaving the orator alone in the dreary hall, fondly recalling his high school days.

A year full of interesting events, pleasant associations and helpful opportunities of expressing ourselves along dramatic lines. Besides the staging of the little play For Liberty’s Sake and the studying of Moliere’s “Doctor in Spite of Himself and the “Merchant of Venice” and committing and preparing the last act from the latter, we have prepared and presented before the club, the lives of great Shakespearian interpreters including Edwin Booth. Edwin Forrest. E. L. Sothern. Charlotte Cushman, John McCullough. Leo Rocker. President Leah Haas. Vice President Miss Bruol, Fi their entrances, plays many parts. Robert Mantell and others. Wc have listened to stories of their personal lives charmingly told by our dear leader. Miss Bruot. In February, the annual banquet was given to the departing members of the club at which speeches were made by the officers and departing members. One of the most interesting features of our meetings this year was the roll call to which we answered with a quotation from Shakespeare This quotation was usually explained, giving us a clearer understanding and greater appreciation of the play from which it was taken Eva Wegfahrt.

Hitchcock As it nears the time for graduation the members of the class of June 1919 secretly wish that it were not quite so near. They look back over four years of high school life, happy years as they now realize. Scarcely one of them but would change some of his deeds if he could. For at this time as at no other comes the realization that each one has been building a name and reputation by which he will be remembered. Students who take part in school activities, doubtless are glad that they gained that experience. For they have a certain feeling of isolation as they leave high school. High school has been a training school, a preparatory school. College, or business life, or whatever is entered by the graduate will be a test of his mettle. He must stand upon his own feet and take what comes. Whether it makes or breaks him will depend upon his high school training. Collectively, the class has been a very good one. as classes go. Wc have been an active class with representatives in all school activities. There let the matter rest. We must now go out where people will neither know nor care what wc were in high school. We must begin again, in some respects. If wc remember this, our high school life will have been a help to us as it should be. If, on the other hand, we expect to be leading the world around at the end of a string in five years or so. simply because we are graduates of Central High School. Cleveland. Ohio, then our high school life will have been a hindrance to us. I-et us, therefore, leave high school, conscious of our training and strong in that consciousness, but withal humble in the knowledge that we are inexperienced travellers upon unknown ways. History of the C The morning of September 15, 1915 found a crowd of flatlets, out in front of Central’s gate gazing up at the tower, trying to realize that at last they were about to enter a high school. They lingered around the door afraid to enter but finally summoning courage they entered and now the heavy burden of high school was placed upon them. It seemed a puzzle to find our rooms those first few days and if we asked anyone we were given vague directions as to how to find them. But soon everything was well established. We received home-work in large quantities and did our studying in the back of the home-rooms amid recitations of German, French and various other strange studies. But a year soon passed and we were at the beginning of our Sophomore year. Big study halls and Caesar (oh how we wished he had never fought those Gallic Wars) were introduced to us. We now felt very proud and very dignified but soon found that it was very little different to be Sophomores than it had been to be flats. This year there was a popularity contest at Central. The hopes of the Sophomores soared high,but alas! the Juniors beat us and a pretty junior girl was found to be the most popular. It was at the end of this year that Mr. lass of June 1919 Ruetenick left us. Wc were sorry to lose him but glad to find the next year that his place was filled by our beloved Mr. Harris. As IB's the clubs sent us invitations to become members. Wc were now beginning to learn some thing of the social side of high school life. As I IB’s the chance was given us to show our school spirit. Under the able leadership of Mr. Bisscll, we organized a class and the course of Friday informals was soon begun. The talent of our class was directed into a Junior play. After many patient rehearsals, the play was presented and pronounced a success. America was now in war and Central was called upon to show her patriotism. Sweaters and socks were knit by the girls, the boys pledgd money for various things and the clubs gave money some as much as a hundred dollars to furnish a room in the D. A. R. Lodge at Chillicothc. The room is well furnished and it is called the Central High School Room. Our dear (much interviewed) Mr. Bath-rick left Central to become the principal of Long-wood High. We wished him all success. Our senior year greeted us with military training for the boys, Virgil, Chemistry, a new assistant History of the Class of June 1919 principal. Mr. B. P. Fowler, and a new arrangement of our office. Things were just beginning to run along smoothly when the influenza vacation came and interrupted everything. After vacation we had to get down to business and study hard but amid the work we found time for fun. When we became 12A's, wc were very very busy Class officers had to be elected, the annual had to be gotten out. pictures had to be taken (wc wonder if Mr. Horton didn’t get tired of giggling girls and noisy boys.) Speaking at Khctoricals was a pleasure (?) we shall ‘never forget. How frightened we felt beforehand, how shaky on the stage and how relieved afterward. Informal? came one after another thanks to our informal committee. Then came the Formal! Pretty girls with pretty gowns accompanied by handsome, admiring boys had an all-round good time. Class-night proved a success. The talent discovered in our Junior year had now developed. Graduation is coming, the time seems to go by on wings. As wc look back on our last four years, our troubles, our fun we almost wish we had them to go over again. And now. old Central, we say good-bye. For the time of leaving is drawing nigh. We’ve had our work and had our play So we won’t forget you for many a day. MARY CLINTON JOSEPH D’ERRICO “Nineteen” Not only during our senior year did our class take the place as leaders at Central High but even in our earlier days we took the lead in many activities. In our freshman year we felt very proud when at rhetoricals, the principal announced that the most money for the library had been contributed by the first year class. And then, when in the spring of our freshman year, we watched the Freshman Relay Team, wearing the numerals ’19, win the Relay Race we felt very proud. And then we were Sophomores and still pulling for the numerals ’19. It was a wonderful sensation when we watched our boys just trample on the Freshmen football team and then walk away with the honors on the cinder path. And you can be sure that we turned out and boosted these members of the '19 crowd who represented the Red and Blue on the varsity teams. And then came our banner year, 1918. We were proud Juniors and were not ashamed to admit that we made the Seniors look like 33 cents (3 cents for war tax.) Football we won 6-0, basketball was a walkaway, 56-11 and then, to prove to them that we were the superior class, we administered to them a 3-0 defeat in the debate. And then came Junior Hay and with it. the biggest play of the year. And those Junior Informals”—you can say it again— those Seniors of '18 were the most jealous lot in school. And now our Senior year. All interclass championships tucked away, the oratorical pin on the vest of a Senior, the athletic and debating teams consisting almost entirely of ’19 men,—why we feel as though the school itself was ours. Six debators, eight football men, the entire basketball team— that was the record of the class of ’19. In all of our history we only lost one game to our ancient foe,— East High. We won three football and four basket-ball games from them. One debating, one football, and three basketball championships arc left as the class of ’19’s contribution to Central’s trophies. Clubs, the Monthly, informals. pictures, the Annual, dresses and a million other things, all went to make Nineteen the rest of the students wish that they would some day become Seniors. The day for us to leave ha? come too soon but we leave Central a better school than when we came, and leave it for the classes that shall follow—to preserve her honor and keep Central the best school in the whole United States. The class of nineteen leaves Central proud of its accomplishment and leaves it to those generations which are yet unborn. SANFORD ZUCKER. President Class of 1919. Informals By Sanford Zucktr I have heard it said and am inclined to believe that the success of any Senior class is judged by its accomplishments along social lines. And judging our class from that angle, we must admit that we certainly were a sociable lot. Each Friday since our election of officers we have had some sort of a dance, candy sale or some other good time. Most of the credit for the success along these lines is due to the informals which we had. Much credit must be given to the Informal Committee and to those who furnished us with the music at a nominal cost. Those who were on the Informal Committee and who arranged many a pleasant Friday afternoon were Elliot Riskind, Frieda Blum. Sanford Fink. Joseph Garber, Kathleen Marshall and Virginia Nason. The music was furnished by one of our alumni. Sam Siegel, ’17 and one of our students, David Kramer, a drummer de luxe. Refreshments were served at some of our Informals and the good times we had will never be forgotten by those members of our class who attended. Cadet Activities By Eli Rosenkowitz On August the 26th 90 boys of Central High School reported at West Tech field for a two week’s course of military training. From these 90 boys the officers of the Central High Batalion were to be chosen. When school was reopened in September, the work of forming the school battalion was begun. This battalion consisted of five companies, one of Seniors under Captain Leo Rocker, two of Juniors, under Captains Phil Wolfe and Harry Gusman and two of Sophomores with John McCullough and Neil Frye in charge. After the vacation caused by the Spanish influenza. the Central High Battalion, resuming training for a short time, was able to show its ability in the inauguration parade of the Fourth Liberty Loan. In this parade all the schools of Cleveland were represented and were striving to surpass each other. This section of the parade was led by the student cadets of Central High School. Another time Central took part in a competitive drill when Company D. which was composed of Sophomores under Captain McCullough competed with the star company of East High School. This drill was a feature oi the famous annual Central-East football game. Both companies made very, good showings and were greatly appreciated by the audience. On Friday January 3rd, the 1st Battalion, which is composed of five companies of Central High School, was reviewed by Colonel R. E. Hunt. This review took place on 49th Street at the rear of the school where the entire student body assembled. After being drawn up in company front and going through the usual preliminaries, the cadets marched in column of platoons. The second platoon of Co. D. under Lieut. Joseph D'Errico carried off the honors but the other platoons also made a good showing. The Central High Battalion strove for more honors when on January 22nd it took part in the Cleveland Brigade review at West Tech field. The Central High companies were the first to get there on time and after staging a battalion review, drew up in company front. After that members of Co. D. had their life long ambition realized when they went Cadet A through the manual of arms for the camera man. After some more waiting, the review began. All the schools made a good showing. During the month of February, the Central High cadets were busy training for a parade to come off on Washington’s Birthday. February 22nd. Everything was in tip-top shape for the parade on February Zl and the only thing that marred the hard drilling the cadets had accomplished during the month was that the parade was called off. On march 22nd the 1st regiment consisting of the Glenvillc, East and Central High School Batalions. was represented at a prize drill of the manual of arms taking place in the Central High auditorium Two cadets represented each company of the regiment. An East High School cadet carried off honors. At last the long-hoped for occasion came, namely ctivities the Military Ball. This ball was long expected by both military cadets and faculty of the school. The grand occasion came on Friday evening, May 9th. and had the co-operation of the cadets and officers, of. the battalion. This is only a review of what Central High School has accomplished during the past year in the military field. Next year when the cadets return they will meet with a few agreeable surprises. The government will take over the military training of Cleveland High Schools and will furnish the cadets with complete equipments. Also the government has sent Colonel Frye to take charge of the training here. Military training lias proven a success during the past year, under government supervision and with Col. Frye, a very able military leader, in charge, a still more successful year may be expected. This is to introduce to students of Central. Rene Maurice Pellerin, aged five. Rene is the French orphan adopted by the Girl’s Literary Society. With forty foster mothers Rene surely should be well taken care of and, we trust, not too badly spoiled. The adoption papers state that Monsieur Pellerin, Rene’s father, died of wounds received in action. He was several times cited for bravery. having received both the war cross and the fourra-gere. The fourragere is a braided cord worn over the left shoulder. Each soldier, when his whole division is cited for bravery, is entitled to this decoration. Rene himself is described as a “quick-tempered. but loving, and intelligent.” The girls intend to conduct a correspondence in French with Rene’s family. They are happy to forego banquets and spreads that Rene may be clothed and fed. One Hundred Dollars The debates this year were unusually successful from a financial standpoint. At the end of the year the dcbators had one hundred dollars to dispose of as they saw fit. The customary procedure would have been to buy fobs for each of the dcbators. This year the boys thought that their money could be used to better advantage on the other side of the world, in Armenia. Accordingly they gave Mr. Harris a check for one hundred dollars. Mr. Harris thought that there should be a public Krescntation of the money. He was able to get liss Aurora Mardiganian, the Armenian refugee, to come and speak. Later Miss Mardiganian sent each boy an autographed letter and a copy of her book in appreciation of this gift. Let us hope that the example of our dcbators of this season will be followed more extensively in the future. My Interview With the Seniors As I, the Belfry Owl of Central High School, had been unable to interview a great number of Seniors during their short stay at Central High School, I decided to venture out of my domain and confer with them. By powerful incantations and black magic, I changed myself to an innocent appearing student. Therefore you, in 3II probability, will not remember me. As I came out of a door leading from the tower, it was my very bad luck to meet the faculty advisor himself,—Mr. Hitchcock. However he was such a grand old fellow that he just winked at me, (thinking me a student) and let me pass. I believe that the Senior Class must appreciate him a great deal. The first student whom I met was Sanford Zuck-er, president of the Senior Class. He was not wearing any ribbon when I saw him that day. very unusual. In want of something to say, I merely remarked about the weather. He replied in a dialect very strange to me. 1 am sure it was neither French nor Latin; but I had work ahead of me. so I departed. Then I saw Francis Fallon jollying Mr. Lewis in the hall, and doubling up with his hearty Har, Har, Har!” Then Then in came Frank Tekcsky, puffing like a steam engine and late as usual. Frank has become a dude lately. I wonder whether he is in love. Do any of you know Virginia Nason? I was very glad to be introduced to her. for she is quite good looking and athletic. I was just becoming acquainted when someone by the name of Joseph D’Errico seemed headed in my direction. He seemed to be acquainted with Virgina, so I made an exit. I was very much aroused at one incident .however. I suddenly heard several sounds resembling a flute’s trill. I thought it was another Galli-Curci. but I was mistaken. It turned out to be Lina Ros-enman giggling. I suppose she amused the students a great deal. Then the “Magnae Quattuor” passed along,—Sylvia JafTe. Ruth August. Eva Lyons and Helen Braun. They are dancers as well as Latin translators, and are much too popular to become old maids. I also became acquainted with two quiet fellows. Salvatore Marino and Andrew Bongiorno. They are My Interview With the Seniors so bright and witty that they ought to be appreciated by their class. From here I decided to see Miss Bruot about the dramatic talent of the Seniors, and behold,—-There were Franklin Bossart and Leah Haas, rehearsing a Romeo and Juliet scene, under the critical supervision of Eliot Biskind. All three were busy, so 1 departed. 1 was soon stopped by the guards, and was not allowed to pass, until I secured a permit from Albert Bolck, lieutenant of the guard and fancy dancer. A little farther on. I saw Howard Beerbower talking to Esther Wells and Mary Clinton. Howard is very popular with the girls since he ceased being bashful, and I certainly admire those with whom he was talking. Much to my regret and at the expense of an aching head, I learned the game Gasoline. under the able supervision of Julius Rabinowitz, Samuel Lieberman. Phil Wolfe and Joseph Mirlivitz, football and basketball stars. I also met two chums whom I know very intimately, Harold Gardner and Hugo Meleragno. These two. and inseparable pair, have been to see me a number of times in the tower. They arc excellent singers and champion pic-eaters, according to rumor. I did not bother Edtvard Kluge for he was experimenting in chemistry with X Y Z. He is A-l at this subject. Nathan Bluffstein is his equal, not in chemistry but in physics. He is a captain in rank and he succeeds very well at being an officer. I was just about started with the interview, when Mr. Edwards happened around. He recognized me immediately and sent me back to my perch in the tower, much to my regret, for I enjoyed meeting all of you. And now a word to the Seniors: As a judge of students, I am expecting great things from all of you during your lives. Hoping that you all have success and wishing you the best in the world, I remain, Yours sincerely. The Belfry Owl. t Debating By Sanford Zucker Central 1 Central 1 Central 0 Lakewood 2 Lakewood 2 East Tech 3 Central 2 Taking the results of the debate as a guide, one is at once inclined to call the year in debating at Central unsuccessful. But ask any of the Central de-bators, ask any one who was actually engaged in the debate work and you will be informed that this year was an unusually successful one. The less we say about the dccisons of the three debates, the better it is, but suffice it to say, that had the audience been judges, Central probably would have received 2500 of the 2900 votes which would have been cast. As in former years the debators were coached by Mr. Ozannc. and the boys of the team all appreciate his efforts to help them. He is the one man whom we all believe most- capable of coaching a high school team and who during the last year was very much disappointed in the decisions. The boys that Opponents 7 graduate want to extend to Mr. Ozanne their sincere thanks for his help and their best wishes for the success of debating in the years to come. Another one of the reasons for the success in debating is the interest which the school showed in backing the team. Close to 3,000 people attended the three debates and we feel sure that the 2.100 tickets which were sold for the Lakewood debate will stand as a record for quite a while. Loyally, the Central students pulled for our team and it was very disappointing to them to hear the way the decisions went. Deb; Charles Schaeffer, leader in the Lakewood debate, represented Central High School in the Wooster Extemporaneous Contest and although he was defeated by Paul Harmel of Glenville in the preliminary contest, he was able to win the state championship at Wooster. Charles won a silver and a gold medal and brought to our school a loving cup. emblematic of his victory. Strange as it may seem. Sanford Zuckcr. the other leader of the Lakewood debate, met defeat at the hands of a Glenville student in the Western Reserve Contest. Albert Cornswcct. a Junior of Glenville. won the first prize at Reserve. Our defeat at the hands of East Tech was the seventh straight defeat given to our debating team. We hope that Markowitz and Palay will lead victorious teams next year. ating Francis Fallon and Leo Rocker each took part as alternate in one debate and spoke in the other. Sam Levine, although he did not appear as a speaker in either debate, would have led the team against Longwood had the debate not been cancelled. The girls selected a team of debators but they were unable to get anybody to accept their chal-enge. We think that Sarah Essen. Leali Haas and a few more of our girl orators would make excellent debators. On May 9th the boys of the debating team presented Sanford Zucker. leader and manager of the team, with a silver loving cup. as a gift of apprecia tion for his services. Francis Fallon made the presentation speech. The Formal The biggest social event of the year was the Formal Dance. It took place at Central on Friday evening. May the twenty-third. T6 say it was a success is but putting it mildly. Everyone left the hall at the close of the evening in a contented frame of mind, only wishing that the time had not flown so quickly. In the first place, the success of the Formal may be attributed to the efforts of the Formal Commit- tee. All of the members of that committee worked hard to make the dance worthy of the class of June 1919. Leo Rocker and Esther Wells deserve Special mention for their efforts in this direction. The evening, long anticipated, came at last. Though there are Formals and Formats at Central, there is only one Formal which a Senior feels to be especially his. That is the one that takes place just before his graduation. This fullfilled expectations and left a pleasing memory. The girls looked beautiful in their gowns for the occasion, but any attempt at description would lead to extravagant phrases. The music was excellent and left nothing to be desired. There were a number of features between dances which were enjoyable but too numerous to detail here. And everywhere were the Red and Blue of old Central. The hall fairly .blazed with the colors, and a big sign of “Welcome” gave a pleasant atmosphere to the occasion. At last, however, the time was up and the dancers left their Formal in pleasant frame of mind, but with the regret that the good time was completed. The Military Hop Although it was not strictly a Senior affair the Military Hop deserves mention' in this book. Many of those who attended were Seniors so that for this reason it could be considered a Senior event. The dance was managed Cadet Lieutenants Fink and Schaeffer, in an admirable way. This dance was different from any given before at Central in that it had a military aspect. At the beginning of the evening the Bugle Corps played Colors.” After this there was dancing for some time, until a quartette sang a few selections for the entertainment of the dancers. The members of the quartette were Gershom, Kohn, Frye and Crawford. Their singing was thoroughly enjoyed by the audience. The Bugle Corps also entertained the students in the intervals between dances. Then, as the last strains of the “Home Waltz” died away, the Bugle Corps played “Retreat and “Taps” and completed an evening of enjoyment. By Andrew Bongiorno Football Broadly speaking the football season for 1918 was one of the best in the history of the sport. Since football was discontinued in many of the large colleges, and wherever it was continued the standard of the game was not so high as in former years, the game flourished the most not in schools, but in camps, training stations and shipyards. Although the war did not cripple very greatly the football teams of the Cleveland High Schools, the flu interferred to such an extent that very few schools could play as many as one half of their scheduled games, and Central could play but three of its scheduled eight. The men who had seen one year’s service were Jack Garber, Wolfe. Miller. Minor. Sturtevant, Sheibley and Rini. Of these Miller and Sheibley withdrew before the season got under way and Sturtevant was forced to quit after playing the first game, thus leaving but five men around whom to build a team. The Central team this year was by no means a phenomenal one. The majority of the men were light and inexperienced, but to their credit it must be said that they comprised one of the scrappiest aR8Tcgations that ever represented the Red and Blue, a team which, if given time to develop-would have been a combination hard to beat. When the call for candidates was sounded. Captain Mares was the only two-year man to respond. The new men were Fineburg, Hamlin. Frye, Do-brick, Goldstein, Turner, Rothkopf. and Rabinowitz. Owing to the introduction of compulsory military training in the school curriculum, Mr. C. B. Lewis was forced to abandon the coaching of our athletic teams and W. Farmer of Case School of Applied Science assumed the task. For the opening game the team lined up as follows : Rini. L. E.: Fineburg. L. T.; Hamlin. L. G.; Minor. C.; Frye. R. G.; Sturtevant. R. T.; Lieber-man. R. E.; Wolfe, Q.; Dobrick. L. H.; Garber. R. H.; Mares, F. The first battle was against University. The Central team went into it confident of victory but soon discovered that the U. S. team was a stronger aggregation than supposed. The game might have been won by Central but for the eagerness of several of the new players who were playing their first game which caused the failure of a few plays. As it was. however. Central had to be content with a tie. Next to U. S. came our old friend East. This year our team did what it had done the two previous years only on a much larger scale, this time defeating East by a score of 15 to 6. Then followed five week’s vacation during which time the team did not hold 3 single practice session. When the season was resumed Central was forced to meet South High and fight it out for the senate championship. Central's hopes of landing the first football championship since 1915 were very high, but the most the Red and Blue men could do was to hold the black and Orange representatives to a tie. thus enabling South to win her first football championship in twenty-five years. The scores for the games played were as follows: Central 13 University 13 Central 15 East 6 Central 7 South 7 Individual Writeups CHESTER MARES—FULLBACK Height 5 ft. 8 in. Weight 152 lbs. One of the huskiest men in the team. A bear at line plunges and a swift runner. He did not play the scientific game which prevails on the gridiron today but relied upon his size rather than strategy to break through the other team’s line. He was not only an all senate fullback but also a very capable captain. His graduation in June leaves a gap in the back field which will be very hard to fill. JACK GARBER Height 5 ft. 8 in. Weight 145 lbs. Although not a phenomenal player Jack played a good consistant game. He shone at kicking goals and could always be counted upon to make a good forward pass. He has been elected captain for next year’s team, and with the experience he gained this year he ought to perform his duties as captain in a very acceptable manner. MARTIN R1NI Height 5 ft. 5 in. Weight 125 lbs. One of the smallest but scrappiest men in the team. He is fast, aggressive, and always on the job. A bearcat at receiving forward passes. The forward pass combination Wolfe or Garber to Rini was a hard one to beat. He made both the all senate and all scholastic teams. His graduation in August will be a severe loss to the team. PHIL WOLFE Height 5 ft. 7 in. Weight 133 lbs. One of the brainiest men on the team. A fast runner, aggressive, a good forward passer and a brilliant all around field general. He made the allscholastic team in 1917 but owing to the abbreviated season this year was not given enough time to show his real wares. His graduation in June leaves another gap in the back field which will be very hard to fill. FRED DOB RICK Height 5 ft. 8] i in. Weight 140 lbs. A consistent and dependable player, one who can make a brilliant play at any stage of the game. He is also a dandy drop kicker. He does not graduate and will be back next year. SAM L1EBERMAN Height 5 ft. 8in. Weight 140 lbs. Sam is the third and last brother in the Licber-man family to participate in Central High athletics. Although Sam is a rather slow man for football he nevertheless played his position in a very acceptable manner. His graduation in June will be a loss to Central athletics. NEIL FRYE Height 6 ft. Weight 150 lbs. A game player, one whom lack of weight handicaps a great deal. This was Frye’s first attempt at football but he has been prominent in track and basketball activities. He graduates in August. GEORGE STURTEVANT Height 6 ft. 1 in. Weight 153 lbs. One of the best liked men in the team. George is also one of our biggest players. Though not a brilliant player he is nevertheless one of the most dependable men in the team, one who places team work above persona! glory. He only played one game this year, but as he does not graduate he will return next year. MINOR Height 5 ft. 7 in. Weight 135 lbs. Minor was easily one of the best centers in the senate. His passing was always accurate and with the experience which he gained this year he should prove one of the mainstays of the team next year. ARTHUR FINEBURG Height 5 ft. 8 in. Weight 150 lbs. One of the heaviest men in the team, a fighter through and through, whose daring tackles saved the team from many a hole. Although this was Art’s first year in Central football, he won the admiration of all Central rooters. He graduates in June. FRANK TEKESKY Height 5 ft. 5 in. Weight 135 lbs. Although Frank did not play in any regular game this year, he was nevertheless one of the most faithful members in the team. In the two years he has been a substitute in the team he has hardly missed a practice session. Such faithful work has won for him the esteem of his teammates and a good many friends. He graduates in June. U 4 h •! « � l t� I • This year Central produced another of its many good basketball teams. The team consisted entirely of experienced men and comprised one of the most dependable squads we have ever turned out. At the call of candidates for the team about twenty men responded. Liebennan and Capt. Wolfe were the only two-year veterans, while the one-year men included Jack Garber. Lipson. Mares. Dobrick, Joe Garber. Rabinowitz, Minor, Rini and Lipshitz. After examining carefully his material Coach Farmer chose the following men to represent Central in basketball: W. K. U. Capt. Wolfe.......................L. Harry Lipson......................R. Joe Garber.......................... Sam Liebertnan...................I„. Jack Garber...............•.......R. Athletics Upson, however, suffered a fractured elbow in the third game, and Fred Dobrick took his place. On the whole the team made an excellent show- ing winning six of its nine games, and might have made it seven but for the hard luck it encountered at the Longwood game. The scores for the games were as follows: Central 24 Central 8 Central 16 Central 16 Central 52 Central 12 Central 13 Central 19 Central 28 Lincoln 14 East Tech 15 West 6 East 13 West Tech 8 Longwood 13 South 15 Glenville 17 West Commerce 22 Individual PHIL WOLFE Height 5 ft. 7 in. Weight 133 lbs. With the defeat of West Commerce in which he played an all-important part, Phil completed his third year in Central athletics. If it is true that he is a star at football, and that Writeups is a fact which no one doubts. Phil is a wonder at basket-ball. Although he is small and light, he is fast and aggressive and no doubt is one of the brainiest men that ever captained a Central basketball team. JACK GARBER Height 5 ft. 8 in. Weight 145 lbs. Jack played a very creditable and consistent game at standing guard, and together with Liebennan, comprised one of the best pairs of guards in the Cleveland High Schools. This was Jack's second year at that position. He has been chosen captain for next year's squad and should prove a worthy successor to Phil Wolfe. SAM LIEBERMAN Height 5 ft. 7' in. Weight 140 lbs. Without a doubt Sam was one of the most valuable men in this year's team and one of the best running guards in the city. He is a star foul shooter, in this respect being a worthy successor to the inimitable “Civi of last year’s team. His graduation will be a loss to the team. HARRY UPSON Height 5 ft. 10 in. Weight 135 lbs. Harry played but three games this year having been forced to retire after the West game in which he suffered a fractured elbow. Harry was a good, dependable forward, a star both in defense and offense. He graduated in February. FRED DOBRICK Height 5 ft. 71-2 in. Weight 135 lbs. Fred succeeded Lipson after the latter's forced retirement and played a consistent game throughout. Fred is a pretty fast player .and should prove one of the best men in next year's team. JOE GARBER Height 5 ft. 10 in Weight 145 lbs. Joe has proven to Central rooters that he is one of the best centers ever developed at Central. He not only out-jumped the other fellow nearly every time, and played a wonderful defensive game but was also an exceptional star in the offense. The star game he played against West Commerce was a fitting climax to his brilliant basketball career at Central. The prospects of a good team for 1920 are very bright. Jack Gardner and Dobrick of this year's team and three more men picked from this year’s scrub team, which incidently won the second team championship, should prove to be a combination hard to beat. Class Song June 1919 i. Lons' we dreamt of for-tune, fame. To hear the worlds ac-claim.
