Virginia Legg JUNE CLASS HISTORY A long, rough lane stretched before us as we, the brilliant freshman class of the fall of 1928, entered Central’s spacious halls to become the defenseless recipients of the hiiots and jeers of lofty upper classmen. To aid us along the way and to save us from our ignorar.ee concerning matters in general, we were given as helpers Miss Balla-my and Mr. Garlock, who ably guided us, tiresome and bothersome though we were. Also, in the spring of the folUwing year we chose as leaders to pilot us safely past sink holes in the muddy road of our sophomore and juniors years: Pr.sidsnt, Ernest Laetz; Vice-President, Peggy Pearsall; Secretary, Margaret La Berge; Treasurer, Don Picard; Sergeant-at-Arms, Albert Baker. The roadway becoming clearer as we steadily advanced, we decided to hold a class party at which the fun and entertainment would serve as an outlet for the suppressed feelings of the whole class. Wanting to enlarge our treasury, we sold candy at the bas ket-ball games, and later used the money to add to the sum used for making our J-Hop a gala evening, long to be remembered in the memory of those attending. In this, our Junior Year, we received recognition in various school activities, especially athletics. W e were also ably represented in debating by Howard Whitehead and in the all school play, Beyond the Horizon,” by Betty Berry. And then we entered that most important stretch of smoother, higher road called the Senior Year. The members chosen to lead us along the road this year were: President, Lyn MacPhail; Vi.e-President, Peggy Pearsall; Secretary, Iva Oviatt; Treasurer, Gedney Fenton; Sergeant-at-Arms, Clarence Kuerbitz. In the fall the Older Boys’ Conference was held in our city, and Joe Wiley was made our delegate. Later, to bring the many class members into cl ser harmony, we held a merry get-together party in the Little Theatre just before Thanksgiving. Again we were wrell represented in an all school play “Peg 0’ My Heait” with Clifford Swanson. Kathrine Dunlavey, and Russel Toeppner taking prominent parts. The Senior Play, “Daddy Long Legs,” wras a tremendous success, and the Senior Prom, which was held just before we entered on a rather rocky stretch of road, a stretch full of unseen pit holes, namely exams, was one of the high lights of the May events. As last activities, before our little road was joined to the broader, longer, more thronged highway of future life, we had our Class Breakfast and Swring-Out. Thus we, the Seniors of 1931, enriched and made more ably fit by our experiences at Central, do turn our faces ahead toward whatever may be awaiting us beyond the curve in life’s highway, stifling our sighs and regrets at leaving behind us that beloved, familiar place, Central High. MARGUERITE W. REHMUS JUNE CLASS WILL We, the June Class of 1931, having breathlessly emerged from a three year’s struggle through that bewildering and confusing maze known as Central High School, now find ourselves on that peerless and seemingly unattainable height reserved only for the Seniors. Surprising as it may seem, we find ourselves still sane of mind and sound of body, and with a tendancy towards generosity. The struggle has been well worth the while, for from our lofty pinnacle we can now 'look down upon the squirming undergraduates, and, with our well known school spirit, we cannot help but feel a kindliness of heart towards them—the poor struggling Freshies, especially. Therefore, being of the aforesaid generous disposition, and possessing a really kindly spirit unde -our sophisticated appearance, we do hereby make, publish, and declare our last will and testament. After the payment of our just debts, expenses of probate, and inheritance taxes of every name and nature, we do hereby jointly give, devise and bequeath our cherished possessions in the following manner: To Mr. Keen, our esteemed principal, we leave fond memories of our illustrious class, knowing full well that it can never be excelled or even equalled. To Miss Beese we leave well-deserved peace and tranquillity—until the next Senior Class invades Room 235. To our sponsors, Miss Ballamy and Mr. Garlock, who have so patiently and sympathetically assisted us in all we have done, we bequeath a carload of patience and sympathy to renew the supply which we have almost exhausted. To the 12B’s we leave our much-abused Senior Privileges, and the unquestioned right of the Seniors to loaf. To the Juniors we leave the privilege of becoming the Senior Class of ’32, hoping that the two years’ association with us will have its due influence upon them. To the Sophs, we leave as a model, the unequaled example of our scholarly attainments, knowing full well they can never attain such heights—but -t is well to try. To the so-called “Freshies”—a well-chosen name—we can leave nothing but sympathy and fervent hopes for the best until they prove themselves worthy of receiving such articles as we possess. And now, in our last will and testament we do individually dispose of our personal belongings: I, Robert Anthonison, do will my privilege of going anywhere, at any time, without Miss Beese’ permission, to Paul Harvey.

Have I not every reason to be proud of this class? Submitted by the Prophecy Committee Don Picard (Ch’m.) Beatrice Wil'liston Iva Oviatt Gedney Fenton Arnold Roth Harold Shotwell VALEDICTORY We, the class of 1931, have for three short years been students in Central High School. For three years we have been preparing against a time when it would be our turn to step out into the world to make our own way, and now that time has come. The parting of the ways has decreed that each of us shall follow separately whatever course he has chosen, and with this parting so close at hand we pause, a little frightened, to look back upon our high school days ard see if we really are equipped to face life the way we, as Central students, should. As our thoughts flit backwards, our cheeks flush in sudden gratitude as we remember how each faculty member has helped us further along the road of learning, giving u both spiritual and intellectual aid. in the classroom and out. The debt we owe them is, we feel, one so great that it can never be re paid in full. Our principal, Mr. Keen, and assistant principal, Mr. Omans, have given us untold help, and we appreciate what they have done for us, fully realizing that had it not been for them, for the school board, and for our parents, we would never have been able to graduate from so fine a sch:ol, a school which allowed us every opportunity to better ourselves for our forlhcoming battle with the world. However, it is to our sponsors, Miss Ballamy and Mr. Garlock, that our deepest and most sincere thanks go, for it is they who undertook the irksome responsibility of changing us from a bewildered, disorganized freshmen group into one that worked co-oi -eratively within itself and with the school. It is they who have guided us so successfully that we have escaped many of the dangers and pitfalls that lie in the path of any newly organized group. The physical and moral sides of our characters have developed, also, cue to our daily contact with boys and girls who already have given promise of the splendid men and women they will be tomorrow. We have enjoyed their true friendships, and, while we are saddened by the thought that graduation may end the present intimate relationships, yet we know they will be pleasant spots to remember in the trying years to come. Thus to you, teachers, who have done so much advancing us along education’s path, and to you, schoolmates, who have left with us so many pleasant memories, we, the Senior Class of 1931, bid a last farewell as we, sending many regretful glances backward, set forth separately and unfalteringly to prove our worth in that dim, unfamiliar land of the future.

The power of huge dynamos is generated to keep the wheels of industry in motion, so the activities of our school link us with experiences and associations for our future lives. IN EXPLANATION OF THE FOLLOWING PAGES It has been necessary throughout this 1931 Centralia, and especially in the pages immediately following, to conserve space. Four and six group pictures have been placed on one page; the usual accounts of the organizations’ purpose and activities are missing; much of the section’s attractivness has necessarily been sacrificed. We merely wish to say in explanation that this year’s fifty cent book has necessitated this economy. We trust our subscribers will realize that the publishing of a fifty cent book this year has meant more work, more planning, more scheming than usually required by the larger book. May we hope together for the return of more prosperous times and the former sized annual.
