Cohn Faculty Members Miss Alice Ryan Emanuel Siegel Mr. Walter Bissell Mr. Allen II. Hitchcock EDITORIAL Wc who graduated now may hold different views as to the value of our four years of training which we have just gone through. Nevertheless most of us have not only profited |� y the studies and activities at Central, but have really enjoyed them. Leaving Central would seem as if we were leaving a good home. Some of us will attend college, while others, both boy and girl, will enter the business world. Right here is the acid test. Can we hold a responsible |H)sition? Has our high school course uplifted or strengthened us. in any way. that would place us at an advantage alx ve those who have not acquired a high-school training? In most cases, although some of us might not personally realize it. the answer is. yes. During school at the end of each semester, wc have been given the estimate of the work that wc have actually accomplished in that class, and we have, accordingly, taken an estimate of ourselves. After each semester we have had pointed out to us exactly how we stood, and taking advantage of these reports, most of us knew where wc were weakest and where to improve ourselves. In the business world (for most of us will eventually come there) it is entirely different. We must be sharp enough to perceive our own mistakes and weak spots, without having someone else point them out to us. We must be able to go through ordeals and situations, which at the crisis might mean a financial loss, instead of a grade of 60. So. after all. Central High has been like a mother to us. pointing out our mistakes and helping us to put our ideas into action. We are now about to tackle the future, with new ideas and facing new trials, and with the aid of our four years training at Central, we should make a success of it. Class Will ai We, the February class of 1920. of Central High School. Cleveland. Ohio, being in a positively sane and sober state of mind, and being delegated to bequeath and bestow, all the worldly possessions, valuable and otherwise, do hereby declare the forthcoming to be the Ijist Will and Testament of the aforesaid class of Feb. 1920 in the manner prescribed by law. First—To the school as a whole, and to all coining Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen and all others, who may voluntarily occupy it. we leave our fond memory and glorious example. May they follow in our footsteps with as much impunity as we have shown. Second—To Mr. Harris, Mr. Fowler and Miss Adams. we leave.our sincere thanks and heart-felt appreciation. for their invaluable assistance together with the deep regret that wc shall be unable to help them run the school in the future. Third -To the coming Seniors, we leave the most important offices of the school organizations and the tender care of the coming Freshmen. May the id Testament Frcshics receive as much maternal affection at their hands, as they did in ours. Fourth—To the Juniors we leave the welfare of the various teams, knowing them to Ik- fully competent to keep up the high standards, which we have set. Fifth—To the Sophomores, we entrust the usual welcome for the freshman class, in addition to the care of all literay and educational organizations. Sixth—To the Freshmen, we leave the entire possession. and absolute, unquestioned mis-manage-ment of the school on Sundays, Holidays or other non-essential school days. On other days, we leave them the management of the lunch room and study hall Seventh and Lastly—To the faculty, we leave those stray bits of information they may have picked up from us. in our short but brilliant career at school. YVe are ure under their guidance the classes may hope to rise as high as wc have. Also we appoint the Faculty as our executors, hoping they will carry out these provisions to the full extent of the law whenever they find it possible to do so. February 1920. Some poets sin to men long gone. Leaving noble names behind: Some sins of deeds with glory done. To bring them back to mind. Still others sing of fragrant flowers That bloom along the way, But we sing to this class of ours. Of its work and play. We have labored, wel have striven. With this very goal in sight. Our earnerst endeavor we ever have given. And toiled with all our might These past four years, which we have spent. Seeking an education. We shall ne’er forget, nor what they meant. After our graduation. We came to school, unskilled as youths. And spent our high school years. Seeking out all those hidden truths. Which help plan our careers. And although graduation ends 'I bis part our school has played. Vet must we thank her for the friends That our school life made. Soon these friends will arise and scatter Throughout the whole wide earth; To different trades, but it need not matter. They’ll show old Central’s worth. They’ll play fair life’s greatest game. Play it with vigor and vim. For here at Central they’ve learned the sanu . To play games fair; and to win. So let ns strive, just one more toast. A toast of peace and plenty; To the one dear class we all love most. This class of 1920. May they win out in all their schemes. Which in their hearts are burning. May they achieve their loftiest dreams. For which they’ve long been yearning. And so let us sing, and all join in To the valiant crew, who are bound to win. This class of ours. The R. O. T. C. in the Public High Schools A surprise greeted the cadets of Central High this September, when they learned that the government had taken control of the military training in the Cevcland high schools and that complete uniforms and military equipment would l e supplied them free of charge. It was an enthusiastic crowd that assembled in the gym the first week of school to be mustered into their respective companies and battalions. It was also surprising to learn that the enrollment this year exceeded the enrollment of the previous year. Companies were quickly formed and officers were immediately chosen. J. McCollough was put in command of the first battalion, and Neil S. Frey was put in command of the second battalion. Mr. C. P� . Lewis acting as head of the Dept, of military training and tactics of Central High School. The course of military training this year differs greatly from that of the previous year in that athletics as well as military science is a part of the required course. Cadets arc required to drill on only two days of the week, two regular periods constituting a drill day. One of these drill days is devoted entirely to drill, while the other drill day is devoted entirely to athletics. Military training was not inserted in the high school curriculums for the purpose of making sol diers out of the high school students but rather to teach them the value of discipline, co-operation and fair pla . The effects of this training is already evident. by the way cadets conduct themselves in school and outside of school. Old Central is as proud of her cadets as of her athletic teams. Lieut. Max Cohn With the spirit of Don’t give up” Central's foot ball team of 1919 proved a great success. Enough material was on hand for a team that could uphold the reputation of Central High. Coach Gailcy, one of the best high school coaches in )hio was secured to coach our team. Jack Garber was the only veteran of two years. Our one year veterans consisted of Joe Garber. Fred Dobrick, Neil Frye. Art Fein-berg, Norman Minor and Nathan Lipshits Many hardships were encountered before we were ready for the first game with University. Although Central put up a great fight, luck was against them and L'. S. won by a score of 21 to 14. In her first Senate game with West Tech. Central was hard knocked and West Tech got away with a 19 to 0 victory. Central awoke from its torpor of defeat and accomplished the unexpected when she beat the strong South team 26 to 6. The Lincoln game was a disappointment in that Central was lacking in the pinches. Lincoln’s goal being threatened several times but without Central’s Athletics scoring. The game ended. Lincoln 13. Central 0. The Glenvillc game resulted in a 6 to 6 tie. Cohen and Frye were the individual stars. Although out next game was not regularly scheduled. our rival East Tech beat us 34 to 13. Willet scored both touchdowns for Central. Central’s annual scrap with East was staged be- fore a crowd of 5000 rooters. Central’s trick plays could not he stopped, ( apt. Garber’s punting. Frye’s blocking, Dobrick’s drop kicking featured. The teamwork was excellent. Central 10. F.ast 7. In the last game Central defeated the light Long-wood team 15 to 0. Central outclassed them in everything but arguing. Hercules Samson Achilles Sohrab . Goliath .

Perlman Snapshots Harrv I). Crawford Clubs Claire Merrill Class Historian Sadie Krutchkoff Jokes Sidney Rosen Editorial After Mr. Harris has spoken to us for the last time as a class, after the diplomas have been presented us at graduation and we have sung the Alma Mater at the close of the exercises, we will pass out of the auditorium amid a crowd of happy parents and relatives, but there will be mingled with our own happiness, a feeling of regret at leaving Cent ral and the halls and classrooms that have become so familiar to us. When we say farewell to the old building that has been for four years our school home, we leave behind us many happy hours of work and play, many pleasant associations with our class-mates and the faculty. After June the sixteenth our high school days will be but memories of a period that has past, while before us will stretch a dim. unknown road—the future. What arc we going to do with that future? We have learned many things while here at Central. We have learned Latin and Algebra and Science from books and we have learned the value of comradeship from our class mates. We have learned to do our work well if we expected to gain the reward of a good grade at the end of the marking period. All thru life, we will find that rewards will cotnc as the result of work done well. No matter what our task may be, let us always strive to do it earnestly, to give it our best. There is more joy in labor well done, than there is in a job performed in a slovenly, half-way, manner. Money i a result of work well done. Success comes from work well done.. Happiness is a product of work well done. No one enjoys doing anything to which he cannot give his best efforts. Nobody enjoys a life made up of a series of half-hearted attempts at a job he cannot carry through. So whatever, in the future, our profession may he. whatever our occupations, let us try to do our best and the rewards that accrue to us will lw of the best. Central is an old school. It has traditions. Many of its pupils have grown rich and famous but they have not forgotten their school. Nor will the class of 20 ever forget it. At graduation we can sing from our hearts the Alma Mater: “Central High, thy sons and daughters Ever will he true” History of Class of June 1920 By Sadie Krutchkoff Great historians invariably agree that the history of the past cannot he divided into distinct, well-defined periods; yet. for the sake of convenience, it is divided into several separate epochs and they arc duly classified and named. So it is with the history of a class, with the history of this particular class of June ’20. There was the first, the prehistoric period of which very little is known except the fact that its students had been graduated from various grammar schools and had in some unknown way met at Central. History’s curtains first rise on a scene vastly amusing to any civilized people. For lo! a host of youngsters are wandering around Central’s halls in a wild and boisterous manner; it is not at all hard to guess that they are in the savage, ignorant stage of freshmen. Poor unfortunate freshmen! What were the trials of the cave man of the ancient stone age compared to vour misfortunes? Would not their very rivers and hills retreat from the overwhelming pressure of Algebra and I.atin, which rested on your youthful shoulders? You were told to cheer up and reminded that every week had a Friday and then, oh bliss! there was a Saturday and a Sunday. What irony! They were but a tiny strait of happiness uniting two infinite oceans of misery. And even that tiny strait meant homework and study. Alas! too true is the theory of those philosophers who claim that great changes do not affect the people of a nation either as seriously or as suddenly as they occur. While the great European powers were borne along the tide of war, desparate-ly struggling for supremacy, although our own country was gradually induced to take part and our own boys marched away, amid tears bravely hidden under smiles, somewhere at home the fires were kept burning while little freshmen poured over their studies. Did the war aiTect them ? Not at all! They knit their socks and wrote their letters Class of June 1920 to France. Hut-----knitting was knitting and Latin was study. Slowly, but surely the clouds began to lift. The dark ages were over and they began their second, the scmicivilizcd stage. No longer the vassals of their upper classmen, even geometry and the Gallic wars were endurable. Instead, they found great pleasure in tormenting the new freshmen and in proving true the statement that history repeats itself. Although their spirits began to rise, there was one event which made it hard for them to decide whether to weep or rejoice. With the mingling of two emotions as different as their causes, they received the departure of Mr. Ructcnick and the simultaneous arrival of Mr. Harris as the new principal of Central High School. But it must follow as the night the day, and there finally came a time when our little timid Freshmen grew up and reached their period of greatest improvement. Curious changes began to take place. Dresses neared the ground and heads the ceiling; in fact they seemed to grow in both directions at once. Most marvelous fact of all— their heads seemed to swell very rapidly and finally reached the stage where they were curiously out of proportion with the bodies of our Juniors. There were new responsibilities and two whole years back of one, the memories of which could l c cherished and fondled when there was nothing else to do. Suddenly they began to Ik intensely interested in debating and elocution. Perhaps it was Cicero who supplied the inspiration, perhaps it was just the idea of being Juniors; but, at any rate their verbal strifes were worth hearing; these developed 4hc;r intellectual abilities to such an extent, that they soon entered their fourth or senior year, by far the most civilized stage ever reached by any nation or any class. Quickly, alas! too quickly, the important events speed by. When the class officers have been elected, the annual provided with material, when each has made his or her debut on the platform, and when formal, class night, and graduation have each in their turn passed, it is then and not until-then, that they realize how swiftly the four years have flown by. Neither the faint odor Class of June 1920 of the dying flowers, nor the creased program of classnight, not even the memories of the bygone years, can he compared to the feelings actually experienced. Sitting on the highest rung of the ladder has been a pleasure too keen to be forgotten. And although other ladders, more promising and reaching further upward, tempt us to aim high, the odor of lx thman and XYZ with which we shall henceforth associate the first rung of every ladder, too strongly clings to our new ambitions to be able to entice us from the throne of a senior. Informals Central High School Seniors showed their true school spirit when they postponed the first informal of the season to pay respect to one who was near to them (a member of the faculty.) This informal was looked forward to by all the members of the senior class. The rest of the informals followed in due course, one every other Friday. Each was attended by the majority of the class and was a big success, for at the close of each informal there was heard, in various parts of the building, sighs of regret mingled with the excitement of the wondrous time each had had. I believe each member of the graduation class will have something to look backward to, remembering the good times they had at the informals of the dear old Alma Mater. Central High. Club Dance A much enjoyed affair of this term was the largely attended Dance, given in the lower hall of the school on April 16. The success of this dance may well Ik- attributed to the effort of the Club Committee, of the Student Council, of which Sidney Fink is chairman. Every club was well advertised in one way or another. Some displayed their colors, others their pins, while still others were represented by cards worn by their members. The fact that this dance was not only attended by Seniors, but by Juniors and Sophomores also, made it more largely a representative affair of the entire school. Nor must we forget the alumni who returned to school to attend it. The music was furnished by an able orchestra, consisting of six pieces, which supplied the dancers with all the latest dance numbers. At five-thirty, much to the regret of all present, the strains of Home Waltz” brought to a close the enjoyment of the afternoon. The Formal Twas the day l efore the Formal, and all through the school Could l� e heard the voices of Seniors, contrary to the rule. The industrious boys were tacking crepe paper by the miles. Although meantime the girls were not talking of the styles— They were shining the trophies and dusting the case And putting the palms and the lamps all in place. For their strenuous labor they were rewarded By a formal, which will not from their thoughts he discarded. To say it was a success would be putting it blandly For never did a formal succeed so grandly. After the guests had arrived in royal array The orchestra a Grand March began to play So out of their places the Seniors all flew ith noise and commotion, and much murmuring too. The thougthful committee did entertainment prepare. Which was of the best, thanks to their care; Then after more dancing, much to our sorrow A night of pleasure was o’er, to be discussed on the morrow. Hattie ;. Perlman The Drama at Central By Sartur Andrzejewski Dramatic critics seem to hr lamenting more strongly, year after year, that real drama is being forcibly crowded out only to make way for entertainment of a trashy frothy nature. The report from Central’s dramatic field this year is quite favorable, for the plays presented were the high spots of the rhetorical hours. Special efforts were made by Mrs. Gchring and the art and manual training departments to give the plays the best presentation possible; and if we could only manage to make parts of the audience more appreciative of artistic work, acting as well as effects, the play hours would he flawless. “The Pied Piper at Central” a pageant written by several of our English teachers, the first dramatic piece of the year, was given in connection with the “Better English Week.” Sartur Andrzejcwski’s impersonation of the piper and the Junior-highlcts’ squeaky portrayals of the slang infected rats evidently made some impression, as the halls were rid of the “classy” and “swell stuff for a time at least. “Values” the next play was an appeal to the students to take better care of Central’s library books. Its authors were a class of Miss Weimer's Junior English pupils and special praise is due them for their artistic handling of such difficult characters as Lincoln. Browning and Mary Jones, in the third act of the play. Mr. Bissel’s “The Heritage” was the last and most gripping of the “purpose” plays. Throughout the four acts, the serious and dignified theme of Americanization was well brought out by the exceptional acting of the dramatis pcrsonnal. A special feature this year was a series of plays in foreign languages. First came The Conspiracy of Orgctorix acted in Latin by a sophomore company. It was produced with scenery carried out in the impressionistic, Gordan Craig style, with simplicity of background and a wealth of color in the lighting effects and strikingly designed costumes. The plays that follow had not been produced The Drama at Central when this article was due for printing so only mention of their plans and preparations can be given. Spanish students are working on a program that will be interesting to an English-speaking audience. If they can work the program out in the short time remaining, they intended to give a dramatization of Kip Van Winkle” with special settings and lighting effects. I)r. Zcligzon promises a saucy little French farce, “La Lcttrc Chargee” bv Labich. Class night plans for the June class of 1920 show strong evidences that, if carried out. the program will be different from any that Central has as vet givep. The class night committtec is trying to get more originality and character into the program by using specially designed settings and colorful plots to bring out the big numbers. Things look very bright, as such talented performers as Lena Robinson, pianist, Sidney Fink, orator. Norman Kinschner, vocalist. Zclta Schulist. class prophetess. Sadie Siegel, premier dansuese, Sartur Andrezjewski. actor. Langston Hughes, poet, and Max Sternlicb, violinist, were elected by the class to be the stars of the evening. Unfortunately no report can be given of the Shakespeare Club’s usually outstanding work this year, due to the absence of its faculty advisor, Miss Uruot. Central’s inimitable dramatic leader who has been sorely missed by her club and school; and permit me. in closing this article, to offer her. as a representative of the class, our sincercst well-wishes, in appreciation of all that she has meant to that art which has given us so many pleasant hours of school life. Basketball By Sidney Fink After a rather unsuccessful football year. Central’s attention was once more turned to basketball. About forty men responded to the call for candidates and after two weeks practice the squad was pruned down to twenty, ten lads apiece for the first and second teams. The following: men comprised the first ten; Capt. Jack Garber, the only two year man, Dobrich, Joe Garber and I.ipshitz one-year men; and Willet., Corso, Koplow, Cohn Wrobbel and Solomon, all new men. The following team was chosen by Coach Gailey after careful examination of the material: Joe Garber L. F. Nathan I.ipshitz R. F. “Pete” Willet .C Fred Dobrich L. G. Capt. Garber R G. Central opened the season with a bang by downing the crack Cathedral Latin quintet in a fast game. Our boys displayed excellent teamwork which the Latin boys seemed unable to break up and the game ended with Central on the long end of the score 16 to 8. Basketball In her first senate game. Central walloped her 55th St. neighbor. East Tech to the tunc of 14 to 8. West was our next victim, 23 to 15. East 13, Central 6. Thus did our ancient rival atone for her defeat at our hands in football. Central was doped as the victor, but our boys were unable to cope with East’s superior defense, not a field basket being made. Next came West Tech. It was Joe Garber’s last game and our team seemed to have regained some of its lost pep. The carpenters were defeated 14 to 5. Another heartbreaker! The baby members of the senate won its second consecutive victory in two years over us by the score of 14 to 7. I-ongwood appears to be our newest jinx. Our championship hopes were once more revived when the South High team, picked by many to win the championship, were put to rout 13 to 10. Glcnvillc as usual put up a hard fight but Central romped home a victor 22 to 18. Central next trimmed the highly touted West Commerce team by the score of 16 to 13. and once more placed herself in a tic for the top position After practically playing Lincoln to a standstill in the first half, our defense was crashed to pieces and five well placed shots by the Lincoln boys in rapid succession told the Central rooters that the end of the year was not destined to sec Central on top of the championship pile. Central closed the basketball season when she walloped University by the score of 21 to 19. Basketball—Individual Writeups Jack Garber (Captain Height 5 ft. 10 in. Weight 162 lbs. This was Jack’s third year on the basketball team and he certainly made a good job of it. Jack was recognized as one of the best guards in the city and many is the combination that has been broken up by his stellar guarding, lie was a trifle handicapped towards the end of the season by being compelled to act in the double capacity of Coach and Captain but a little thing like that did not worry him. Central will certainly miss the playing and enthusiasm of Capt. Garber, who has been for three years on Central’s basketball and football teams. Fred Dobric Height 5 ft. 9 in. Weight 155 lbs. Fred is one who does not play for individual glory and therefore his name is not to be seen among those who are flashed as leading point scorers, but in consistency and steadiness, Freddie cops the bacon. Especially in the first and last games, with East Tech and Lincoln, he proved to be a man who never loses heart. Joe Garber Height 6 it. 1 in. Weight 165 lbs. Joe played in four games as he graduated in February, but in those four he certainly let the rooters know he was in the game, lie was a star both on defense and offense and there are still those who claim that he broke up a championship team when he graduated. Nathan Lipshitz Height 5 ft. 8 in. Weight 135 lbs. “Natic immediately stamped himself as a crack shot by his work in the first few games. Repeatedly throughout the year, he made shots that appeared well-nigh impossible from difficult angles of tlie floor. He will be back with us next year and his presence should aid materially in once more putting Central on the top. “Pete” Willett Height 5 ft. 10 in. Weight 160 lbs. “Pete”—nuf sed' Right after the first game Pete proved himself to be one of the most dangerous men Basketball on the floor in the entire senate. He was somewhat handicapped in playing as in almost every game two and sometimes three men were assigned to guard him. Few. however, succeeded in their task. Time and again with his long reach and high jump he would snatch the hall from midair and either place himself in a position to shoot or pass it to some ambitious team mate. He was our only allscholastic man. Keep it up next year. Pete! Martin Corso Height 5 ft. 9 in. Weight 150 lbs. By way of introduction—Martin Corso. Captain: for so his team mates have chosen to call him next year. The first of the season found Marty on the bench but he soon got his chance when joe Garber graduated and so well did he succeed that he won the position of regular standing guard. With a little more experience he should prove a bearcat on defense. His is no light task, that of being Captain next year. The best of luck to you Capt. Cor o and here’s hoping your team comes through with flying colors. SNAPSHOTS FROM C. H. S.

Soon they reached a Cad well. and while getting a drink, they met their neighbor a Kerman with his two sons Jacob and John. They had all been living in Eineberg. but had decided to migrate. As our friends continued their journey they met a Nauruan with hi sons Kol er and Robin coming toward them from Krcinberg by the Northway. After great exertion and with flushed Cheeks they reached Stromberg. To do so they had to climb a Wahl, on the other side of which they t ret an Eisenman with his sons Raw and Simp. By way of recreation they took a boat and went sailing among the Reeds. There they saw two birds that looked like Siegels. Resuming their journey, they went down Coventry road and soon reached Ginsburg. Feeling somewhat hungry they entered a store to get some ice cream Cohns. There they met a Sherman with his son From. Upon entering another store they bought some maltese Katz for which they paid a dreadful Price. By this time it was growing dark so they decided to re Klein where we will leave them, wishing them a successful journey the rest of their lives.

Thirty years ago Central had only a few clubs but as the years passed new ones were formed and at present there are twenty in existence here. Only two Cleveland high schools have more than our own. Those are East Tech which has twenty-five and West Tech which has twenty-four. The scope of Central’s clubs includes languages, science, literature, civics, music and other interesting and enjoyable subjects. The work of each organization is helpful and educational to those belonging and the clubs add greatly to the pleasure of high school life.

Secretary Albert Goldstein, Treasurer Jack Lashkowitz Monroe Markerilz MEMBERS Victor Woldman Nell Frye Isadora Mintz Philomatheon Club After a period of inactivity lasting several years. Central High School again finds the prominent organization in its midst, the Philomatheon Club. To tho- c who have never before heard of the Philomatheon Club, it might seem an exaggeration to call it prominent. Hut one must bear in mind the fact that the present Philomatheon Club is but a reorganization or rather a continuation of the former organization, a society which could be well ranked among the best in the school, a club which originated the system of interscholastic debating now used among Cleveland high schools, an organization in which the debating team and the l est debating material of the school always was and will continue to be the nucleus. It was due to the earnest efforts of Mr. Harris, that the club was again put on its feet. He presented to the club treasury twenty dollars as a club starter financially. Furthermore Mr. Harris has endeavored, by communicating with former members, of the P. I). ('. to learn the whereabouts of the constitution, the form of the club pin and the club colors. Although little was heard of-the Philomatheon Society during the past year it was due to careful preparation by its members and Mr. Beer, its faculty adviser, that Central won the South debate and made such a good showing at Lakewood and West Commerce, the debating team being the club’s only members at first. Graduation takes eight debaters that the school had during the past year. Only one of the original nine remains to carry on the work successfully with Mr. Beer and the new members for the coming year. Debating Central 2 Central 1 Central 0 South 1 Lakewood 2 Commerce 3 Although Central did not cut considerable capers in inter-scholastic debating circles, she accomplished what numerous teams in the past few years have failed to do, namely, win a debate. If the season is to be considered a success, and it surely should be. then all the credit must be handed to one Mr. Beer. Mr. Beer came to Central a short time ago touted as a great Physics teacher, and great indeed was the surprise at Central when it was discovered that the debating team would be under his guidance. Mr. Beer was hampered by his lack of knowledge of the material, but notwithstanding. he managed to produce two good teams. In the first debate of the year Ezra Shapiro. Jack Laskowitz. Moses Paley and Isadorc Koplow alternate, comprised the team that triumphed o er South in Central’s first victory since 1914. Monroe Markowitz. Sidney Fink, Max Essin Albert Goldstein, alternate, composed the team that met defeat at the hands of the strong Lakewood team. In the final debate of the season. Central stacked up against her ancient rival Commerce, but was no match for Wasserman Co. and was compelled to come home on the zero end of a unaimous decision. Next year the debating will be in the hands of the reorganized Philomatheon Club. Already prospects have been taken into the club. Under the guidance of Mr. Beer, and with the knowledge that the student body is behind the team in defeat or victory, we sincerely hope that the debating team with Isadorc Mintz as leader, will have a successful season. Student Officers President - Isadore Koplowitz 'ice President - - Helen Baldwin Secretary ... Sadie Kmtchkoff Treasurer ... - John McCullough A bright ray of sunshine on a dark, cloudy sky frequently produces an effect contrary to what we would anticipate. Sudden victory and unexpectedly acquired responsibilities rarely produce immediately the expected results. When in February 1920. the students of Central were presented with a new responsibility and were given a share in the government of Central High School, somehow during the first year, very few Council ♦ of our ambitious plans could lx: carried out. Among the things which the Council has been able to introduce and the success of which it is most anxiously awaiting, is the Service Card System, a competitive scoring plan for the pupils of the seventh, cigth, and ninth grades. Its purpose is to teach the children to appreciate art, literature and music, and the beauties of nature, to become noble, many sided men and women, and good citizens. Our prospects of success are brightening. With our able and willing faculty advisers and our firm determination to succeed, all obstacles, we hope, will soon be overcome. Shakespeare Club “What’s in the brain that ink may character Which hath not figured to thee my true spirit? What’s new to speak, what new to register That may express my love or thy dear merit? It is with these words in mind that we pcak of our Indovcd leader Miss Bruot. The affairs of the Shakespeare Club have revolved al oul Miss Bruot for so long a time, that when we speak of the Shakespeare (dub,our first thought is of Miss Bruot as we have always known her. patient, willing. never tiring of helping her children” when they needed her. and above all. loved and admired by her many pupils and friends. It was with great difficulty that we adjusted our activities, when a sudden illness prevented Miss Bruot from being with us. During her absence Miss Krug has very kindly helped us in all our difficulties, and the members of the club have tried in every way possible to maintain the high standards of the Shakespeare Club. During the past year besides studying the play “The Doctor in Spite of Himself” we read and discussed several plays by Barrie. Members of the Shakespeare Club also participated in the pageant The Light” given before the X. E. A. in the New Masonic Hall. At our weekly meetings the custom of answering the roll call with a quotation from Shakespeare has been continued, and we feel that it has helped us to become familiar with many lines and thoughts of Shakespeare. Our heartfelt wishes for next year are for the best of health for our beloved leader, and our sincere hope -is that our successors in the club may enjoy the great privilege and pleasure that we have had. in being under her guidance. The Home Garden Club I'he Home Garden Club has spent a very profitable year under the leadership of Miss Chestnutt. The flower sale which was held on October thirtieth was very successful. The money netted from this, in addition to that made in the sale of bulbs, will be used to landscape the north side of the school yard. The club in this way hopes to arouse in the pupils of Central High School, an interest in gardening and an appreciation of the beauties of nature. Orchestra The Central High School Orchestra is one of the long established organizations of the school. This year it has worked with untiring enthusi-a m a is evidenced by excellent selections it has presented, as well as the number of occasions on which it has appeared. A glance at the roster of members will show that we are indebted most largely to the Junior Class for our membership. The Friendship Club The Friendship Club of Central High is very much interested in settlement work being done at Hindman. Kentucky. The club has made and sent several dozen towels and hopes to send more. The club enjoyed many interesting talks from prominent women of the city during the past year. The Bird Club The Bird Club was organized by the pupils of Central High to encourage the interest of the school in the study of birds and their habits. Our first meeting for organization was held April 30. 1920. A committee of three with Aranka David as chairman and M. A berg as adviser was appointed to draw up a constitution. The constitution was adopted the following week with the exception of one article pertaining to the admission of Freshmen. This was put oil for further discussion. The club will he active in taking bird hunts ami having speeches on birds at the meetings. They expect ultimately to become a branch of the National Audobon Society, an organization for the protection and study of birds. Enthusiasm was not only shown l v the pupils but also by the teachers many of whom have become active members of the club. Officers have not vet been elected. Faculty adviser—Miss Seaton. The Faradays Club The Faraday Club, with the skillfull guidance of their faculty advisor, Mr. Marple. has enjoyed another profitable and instructive year. The Club lias studied various topics in science and each member at sonic time gave a talk on a selected subject, often illustrating with models, diagrams, steroptican views and even motion pictures. The Club was fortunate in having Mr. J. S. Newman a graduate of Central and former member of Faraday Club speak to the members on wireless. Each hmnth the Faraday Club visits a manufacturing plant and gained much pleasure and information from these trips. The Club has a most promising future as it possess a large number of Juniors who will put plenty of “pep n next year’s Club and make things hum. oAmerican Civics cAssociation gf C. H S. The A. C. A. the newest organization founded in Central High School, was instituted by Mr. Harris after a careful consideration of the civic needs of the school. A faculty committee was appointed to draw up a constitution and a number of last year's graduates were appointed tv select, from the best of the school, members for the organization. Twenty-four signed their names to The Hi The purpose of the Hi Y Club is to create, maintain and extended thruout the school and community high standards of Christian character. In each high -chool of any size and prominence thruout the country, and in many of those of Cuba and Canada there is a Hi Y. The meetings of the East End . M. C. A.

The purpose of the organization shall be to develop among its members ami in the school a spirit which shall tend to unite our pupils without regard for race, color or creed, in a common loyalty to the great ideals for which America stands before the world and in helpful co-operation to carry out these ideals in practice. Y Club M C. A. Dinner is served to the combined clubs and is followed by an entertainment furnished by the clubs in turn. Immediately after the entertainment each club holds an individual meeting to carry out the plan ning for its activities. Unquestionably much of the club's success is due to the leadership of our competent adviser. Mr. Floyd Flick 15. The Treble Clef Club The Treble Clef Club has had a successful year and the members feel that the results have justified the time and hard work expended. We have appeared at rhetoricals several times, our biggest success being the minuet, given in costume in honor of George Washington's birthday. Following a custom established some time since, the club chose for its annual concert an extended work for the principal number on the program; the one chosen this year was Cryil Graham's “Pied Piper of Hamlin,” a very clever and descriptive musical setting of Brownings well known poem. The lighter side of club life has not been ignored; during the Christmas vacation the club was entertained at Mrs. Parr’s home where remarkable dramatic talent was discovered. The annual spread, as usual, proved the club formidable rivals of the domestic science department in culinary arts. In fac.t we’ve sung hard and played hard and profited equally by our diversions and labors. Girls' Literary Society The G. L. S. has spent a very prosperous year under the guidance of Miss Weimer. Our girls proved their good will by the delicious sweets they made and sold to help raise money to support our French orphan Rene' Pclerin for this year. The members of the society were rewarded in their efforts toward the club having a spread, at which they were able to sample the talent of the various members. Much progress was made along literary lines. Several plays were read, such as. “A Doll’s House” and “A Pot of Broth” fhe club hopes the good work they have begun will continue. The Glee Club The Glee Club has indeed had a very successful year. The school has enjoyed the singing of the dub on several occasions and we feel that the Home Concert, was one of the best the club has ever offered. It portrayed camp life in the South in a truly artistic manner and the minstrel sketch was done in the usual Glee Club fashion which is enough said. Several good voices were developed as soloists during the year and we feel the club performed its mission and maintained its usual high standing among the clubs of the school. There has been more instrumental music among the members than ever before. A few of the members gathered about them a small group, thus forming a string trio, a jazz band, and a quartette and they were entirely successful in their efforts to produce good music. Whatever success the club has achieved is without a doubt due to Mr. Lambrith who has worked so incessantly and so hard toward that end. c7VIilitary Band The Military Band, organized last year, has come into its own this year, and its success is due to the teacher and director furnished by the Musical Arts Association from the members of the Cleveland Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Henry Clark, the Band Master, has given the band daily rehearsals begining with the second semester, and the results have been most gratifying. There are forty two members of the entire organization. Twenty-four of these members play on public occasions: eighteen members re studying, but not sufficiently advanced to play as yet. • Junior Red Cross §f Central The sign “Red Cross” wherever seen stands for help to some one in need. The Red Cross members in Central High School have lived up to the name as was Shown at the N’ational Reel Cross Convention held in Cleveland last Fall, where we did much to aid the visiting delegates. A cleanup campaign was launched in the school the first week after Xmas, 1919. and was directed by'the Red Cross of Central. The Cleanup Cainpaing of May 3 to 8th was also directed by the Red Cross of Central, but under the supervision of the Student Council in order to make it a greater success. 'Che members of the Junior Red Cross are as follows: Louis Eisenman, Chairman; Rose Kup-chick. Arpad Elo, Lois Hoffman. Joe Gross. Frank Spisak, William Kothstein Bella Leibovitz and Nadine Daniels.. Faculty advisers are: Miss Adams, Miss Sutton, Mr. Fowler. Miss Chestnutt and Mr. Louis.. Leaders’ Club Leaders’ Club is an organization of girls for the purpose of enabling them to become stronger, healthier and wiser. With the help of our capable instructor. Miss Watkins, the girls have shown great ability in dancing, athletics and apparatus exercises. Few games were played thru the past season. but the one most played was baseball. Baseball Season One day a week, two hours the day. We meet to work and too, to play. To make white cheeks look red and gay. Oh! how we greet the month of May!

Wc have read several Latin plays. Our president has made a very auspicious begining toward conducting the meetings in Latin. The pur- pose of the Olympian Club is to further the interest of Latin and in order to do this wc are considering admitting into the club such lower class-men as shall be eligible. The Spanish Club The Spanish Club has met several times this term. We hope however to have our regular meetings after giving our play, which, at the pres- ent has been requiring the undivided attention of all. The club also expects to hold its annual reunion in the early part of June. The Psi Omega Debating Society The Psi Omega Debating Society has had a very successful term under the guidance of the faculty adviser, Mr. Hood. The programs have been well given by the members of the club under the supervision of the executive committee. The idea of the club has been to promote public speaking, and it is sincerely hoped that the new members and those who remain will continue the good work done during this year. Mr. Burton P.

To be fully prepared when opportunity raps at one’s door is the essence of sound sense.

Business is Every Man's Science — and Every Woman's It Is Their Opportunity For Practical Results The young man and young woman who graduates from High School today has greater opportunities than any young man or woman ever had before. This is the age of science. It has sway in every field. It has proven that there is one best way of doing everything to get results. Great results can only be obtained through mastership, the doing of the right thing by the right man, in the right way, at the right time and in the right spirit. Three broad fields of business are open to each: that of the Private Secretary who is eyes memory and hands for the big men of the world; that of the Accountant whose service is indispensable; and that of the salesman, who keeps business going. Mastership of any of these three is bound to lead toward success. Let us help you select your vocation. Let us give you information about scientific courses of training in each of these main fields of business and many others.
