Ltmizzary zzcoamqes Junior otmmlisfs The Central Luminary started as a magazine in 1885, became a weekly newspaper in 1920 and a bi-weekly paper in 1944. Each year two staffs composed of the current Newswriting 2 students publish the paper, which is now commercially printed. For many years the Luminary has devoted the first page to current newsg the second page to editorials, features, and literary itemsg the third page to secondary news, in a special column called by various names such as Snoopin' Around, news of the clubs, De Lano, Central Junior, and P.-T. A.g and the fourth page to school sports and R.O.T.C. The spring staff of 1954 inaugurated News Flash Bulletin Boards in the front hall and the lunchrooms. These enable the Luminary to post spot news and also run features illustrated with photographs which are not possible in the paper. More Centralites in this way can be featured in the news. The Luminary enters the annual contest of the Missouri Inter- cholastic Press Association and receives a gratifying number of First Class ratings every year. It is also occasionally entered in the National Scholastic Press Association and the Quill and Scroll con- tests and has received All-American and International ratings in the past years. Staff members who are in the upper third of their class and rated excellent for their staff work are recommended for the Quill and Scroll Honorary Society for outstanding work in the field of journalism.
