MARJORIE ATKINSON ISS MILDRED TAYLER TO Our Sponsors We make this declaration As a sort of explanation Of our great appreciation For our sponsorst illSpiration For their firm determination In enduring consternation Plus a lot of complication At every convocation Our dramatic presentations To them meant computations While the garment situation Called for lots of estimation And the program invitation Was a cause for excitation And so in culmination As we make our mass migration We are taking this occasion T0 eajpress our admiration For our guidest consideration. .j ItAnd Was I Happyai It all started when I was in a group trying to fight off the Christmas-seal salesman when a boy came in and said that Miss Bridge wanted to see me so I knew that something big was in the air because Miss Bridge never sends for anybody unless something big is in the air and so I went in expecting the worst and was I glad when I found that she only wanted me to usher at the 12-A commencement exercises and after I thought it over I decided that I might learn something for my own commencement day and so I decided to go and I got up almost as early as I do for school and I went all the way down to Cass Technical High School where Miss Ward showed me where to stand and how to keep the people seated W and what to do about people with candid cameras and then the people started coming in and I was so busy that I didnlt have time to g3 t think and then at last I escorted Mrs. Bishop to her seat teverybody should know who Mrs. Bishop isl and then the graduates started to come down the aisle and since I was right on the center aisle I caught the eye of a lot of them and tried to give them a big friendly smile but I dont think one of them saw me because they were all so nervous and downright scared and after a while they sat down and some fellow got up and began to speak but by that time I was almost as nervous as the seniors and I hardly understood a word that he said but he said something about a hoatman crossing a stream but I didnt listen because just then somebody tried to take a picture and I had to exercise tact and firmness and then I saw a mother crying and I stared at her until the graduates began to get their diplomas and I can imagine how they felt because I got a diploma once too but that was back in intermediate but I hope to get one here too when I grow up and become a senior and the people were clapping for each graduate and one almost fell flat on his face and then they all sang the School Song and then they began to march out and they were trying to look happy and I saw one graduate whistling but he looked pretty bad and they all looked pretty bad and then they all marched out and then I had to struggle to get the people out of their places in nice orderly lines and then I went out into the hall and stood there congratulating the grad- uates and they looked so sick and all at once I realized that I was now a senior and that at any moment I might get a diploma and was I happy but at the same time I felt pretty sick.

THOMAS J. GUNN In the two years that we have known him, the student body has grown to like and admire our principal, Mr. Thomas J. Gunn. Eiiicient in the discharge of his duties, he is always willing to give kind consideration to the problems of teachers and students alike. His diligence in small matters and his ability to handle more important ones has brought him to the top position of his profession in Detroit educational circles. MR. HARRY L. DAVIS May we introduce Mr. Harry L. Davis, the Assistant Principal of Central High School? Lets take a quick glance at his scholastic career- After graduating from Detroit Northwestern High School, Mr. Davis attended the University of Michi- gan Where he was a member of two honorary fraternities. Later he received his Masters Degree from Wayne Uni- versity. In athletics, Mr. Davis excelled in cross country and track both in high school and college. Mr. Davis came to us from East Commerce High School where he had been Assistant Principal for ten years. We are fortunate indeed to have in such an important position at Central a man whom we already call ttOur Mutual Friend?

ULA GRACE WASHBURN MISS HENRIETTA CARR MISS E. GRACE PALMERLEE Sixtthrbe Miss Katharine G. Hine The girl of our dreams is the sweetest girl of all the girls we know-she,s the sweetheart of Central High? To a Centralite this can mean only one person, Miss Katharine G. Hine. Since every llteen ager', likes to hear about his own age, well start there. From a not-so-far- back issue of the Studenttava we learned that on her first day of high school the old building burned down so that for two years our heroine attended classes in all kinds of out-of-the-way places. After this novel, but rather trying, experience, Katharine Hine and her classmates were grandly installed in the big new Central High at Cass and Warren Avenues, where she finished her patch work high school career. At this point in our story the Old Timer stepped in and gave us a helping hand. Since he knew her so much better than we could ever hope to, well tell it to you the way he told us. He began by saying that Miss Hine had been poet laureate of her class at Michigan, the same class of which Miss Wattles was president. When we asked if she kept on writing after she graduated, the Old Timer replied, llYes, although Iim afraid her poetry wonit be preserved for posterity. While she was teach- ing she used to write original poems on the 12Als, and jingles for all kinds of selling cam- paigns. She and Miss Wattles were always on the athletic board so she sold tickets to every species of gameAand she was always one of her own best customers! I remember one time Katharine and Miss Wattles decked themselves out as a little girl and an old-fashioned lady and sold tickets to the study halls. They created quite a mystery because with their big hats they werenit recognized at firstfl llYou said she was on the athletic board; wasnit that rather unusual for a woman math teacherpli we asked. HI guess it was, but Miss Hine was a rather unusual woman. She was a sponsor of the Lowell Club, an all-boys literary society, and also of the Central Girls, Literary Society. The S izty-four football team, like everyone else, adored her. One reason was that after the last game of the season she always brought them a high cake, at least two feet across, to celebrate going off training. Being a math teacher, she always saw that everyone had his proper share, although Ilm afraid the boys didnlt give her time to use a compass and protractorlli ilWhat kind of a teacher was Miss Hine, any- wayPil we wondered. llShe was very-thorough and always made her classes work, but the funny part about it was that they liked it! There was always something happening and she must have been the secret passion of more than one boy, for they all wanted to get in that pretty young teacherls class. I think youive heard the story about the time some boys brought a white rat to class to Lease her. Although one of her secret terrors was rats, she foiled their plot by stroking it lovingly. She was always fair, even when it came to having a captured candy munoher treat the whole class and the teacher next day. But she was no llsnapll; her marks were always just what you deserved. She had firm ideas of right and wrong, and woe betide the offender who came into her hands! Her tests were by no means easy, but Miss Hine put psychology into practice by using the honor system. So respected was she that even confirned lside glancersl measured up to her trust. Some spicy comment on returned papers brought out grins in spite of the marks. llBut she was more than a mere purveyor of knowledge; she was friend, advisor, confidant. At that time, after reporting to your group room, you could go any place you chose-Miss Hinels room was always tilled to flood level! Students told their troubles, asked advice, and joked with her. She helped many, boys especial- ly, to steer straight, for she was such a jolly good fellowl that they never recognized the sermons she was preaching them. No matter how many duties she had undertaken, she always had time and energy to help others. ltNo one ever got the best of a joke on Katharine! I remember one time when she and Miss Wattles were being initiated into a secret society of boys Hts official name was the lMoo Clubl, so you can see how serious an organization it was D Blindfolded they were to shake the hand of each boy. The catch to it was a peeled orange held by one of the boys. About to take his hand, Miss Hine felt the orange. She shook hands nonohalantly, but in such a way that orange juice spurted down his sleeves instead of all over her as it was intended to. On that same fateful day the aspiring iMooitesl were required to write an examination, answering such questions as lHow would you unscramble an eggiV Explain the fourth dimensionY lWhy does a square : a cube? lWhat became of the apple which William Tell shot from his sons headP, They both passed with flying colorslii HWhen was Miss Hine made head of the Math Department there? liWell, lets see. She came to Central in 1903, so she was made head in 1923, and in 1926, when Central moved way out here in the sticks, she was made assistant principal? liWe gather that students have always liked Miss Hineewe donit see how they could help itebut what did the faculty think of heriw llTeachers always have found her grand to work with! She was always friendly to new teachers and, without being offioious, helped them to become adjusted. She was so thought- ful! She seemed to be able to anticipate requests and do favors before they were asked. When she was assistant principal she came her- self to see a teacher, if she could, rather than call him to the oflioe. She was always fun to work with too! Miss Hine once wrote a letter to Mr. Miller, addressing him, as she usually did, as iUncle Edl. The entire letter was sans punctuation and capitalization. At the end, in a postscript, were a flock of commas, periods. etc., and the comment, sYou put ,em inll Mr. Miller was superintendent of English and she was a mere ungrammatical math teacher? llWhat did she look like.D Has she always been attractivepll llWell, I told you how pretty she was; her soft coronet braid was almost an institution at Central. She always had that teasing twinkle in her soft brown eyes, which added to, rather than detracted from, her poise and dignity. I donlt think shelll ever grow old; she certainly hasn't yet! Miss Hine is one of the greatest and most gracious ladies I have ever had the privilege of knowingli, On that last point we heartily agree with you, Old Timer. Even in the too-short years that we have known her welve come to love her dearly! Thank you, Old Timer, for giving us the paint and drawing the ou tlines for a portrait of a charming lady. Although Central has lost her as a member of the faculty, Miss Katharine G. Hine has left her influence and her memory as a priceless heritage for Centralites-to-be.

By SHELDON KUSHNER, Centralite Contest Winner The beautiful strains of the iiEmperorii waltz or the hot licks of iiWacky Dustii hardly seem a suitable introduction to a serious composition on the workings of the Commercial Department, but, strange as it seems to the layman, music is an integral part of the typing class and Will probably be one of the more pleasant memories Which the graduate Will carry into the world With him. Other memories, some of them possibly not so pleasant, include work sheets, ruling lines, the first term of shorthand, the rule against erasures in type, the smudging of carbon copies, and Mr. Nelsonis tests. As we, the graduates, accept our diplomas on that day of days, certain of us Will reach for ours with trembling fingers, with the omni- present chance of dropping them, to the eternal disgrace of our class; others will doubtless step forward wreathed in confident smiles and will at mtfettw i0 gracefully grasp the sheepskin with calm, slender fingers. How have they acquired this poise.D By assiduously pacing the room With a book atop their heads.D By complete relaxa- tion for a quarter of an hour daily.D No, it is all a result of facing Miss Robert- Q sonis dictation Where the pupils are a? driven under terrifle pressure to 120, 130, or even 140 words per 3 minute. We Who are about to . graduate owe something more to the Commercial Department than our haIf-baked knowledge of typing and short hand; we owe to those teachers a sense of mental alertness, a calm outward appearance While a volcano rages within, and, most worthy gift of all, the ability to chew gum and powder our features While reading back an important business letter. .Sizty-seven Have you ever listened, green with envy, to your favorite radio announcer, wondering if you had the remotest Chance Of attaining sueh polished speech.D We who are about to graduate can smile at such childish desires as we look back into the mists of the past to the time when we were in Comp. tZi. Here we were drilled in the funda- mentals 0f syntax and composition until our minds were in such a whirl that we were unable to comprehend the difference between to, too, and two. If we were fortunate enough to have an easy teacher, we were promoted. J ust before we were completely at sea as to whether Charles Brockden Brown or Edgar Allan Poe wrote iiThe Outeasts of Poker Flat? our American Lit. course ended, and we passed on to Comp. Q90. Here we learned to love the essay;that iishort informal prose discussion upon any subject which appeals to the writer? This course was followed by Eng. Lit., which produced among us a veritable bumper crop of budding poets, and then Comp. 019, where many tried their hands at creative writing, and decided to become engineers 0r cooks. By the time that Commencement Day has rolled around, everyone has been drilled so often and so well in this course that we are able to walk proudly up to the principal as we receive our diplomas and say in well-nigh perfect English, ttThank you? S iztyLe ight Appreciation of good art and music is one of the distinguishing marks of a Civilized man-in short, of a true Centralite. The excellent courses offered in these subjects are not only cultural, but practical. In this modern world, art in all its forms holds a far more important position than is commonly realized. With the artist of our day lies the responsibility of giving beauty to our clothing, our homes, and to almost every- thing that we use or see. Therefore, it is only natural that art should be taught in Central. Although the art courses offered here may not turn out any Rembrandts 0r Rodins, they at least bring to the light of day much buried talent, and give students an opportunity to become skilled in many of the varied phases of art, such as water color and oil painting, Charcoal drawing, clothes designing, weaving, and modeling in clay. One of the highest as well as one of the most abused forms of art is music, for we all sing, or at least try to. It would indeed be a boon to those who have to live with most of us if we knew a little about singing as it should be done. The voice classes taught here present an ex- ceptional opportunity to acquire a complete knowledge of the fundamentals of music, and a sound basic training in the use of the voice for both singing and speaking. S irly-n ine Foot Loose anti Fancy Free The Old Grad looked about at the large, well-equipped gymnasium and sadly shook his head. iiltis not the way it was when I went to school? he said. iiOh, its much better now? the young man said. u1n your time only a few participated in athletics, but now the motto is Sports for All,. Instead of a small squad of highly- trained athletes, we have chosen to have a generally healthy student body. Take, for example, basketball. Twenty years ago, ten men learned to play expertly; now we have twenty teams in each gym class. Although the art of iistieuffs formerly was neglected, we now have many squads of boys trained in this art. Seventy And its not only within classes that these sports are held. The intramural managers, under the direction of Mr. Kelley, last fall held a six man football tournament which was open to all. Track is another division which captures the attention of many aspiring young Cunning- hams. Donit you think a diversified program is much better than the dry calisthenics which were the lot of the average boy and girl in your dayPii The Old Grad looked about the large, well- equipped gymnasium and proudly shook his head. iiItis not the way it was when I was here, he said. Lingua, Linguae, F. W - uTout le monde parle une languefi Re- member that first French sentence you learned in the 8B? ltEverybody speaks a languagefi the trite little phrase says, and so it has been since the biblical days of the Tower of Babel When each nation was assigned its tongue. It has always been a mark of culture to have a speaking acquaintance With more than one language. The pupils of Central know this axiom well, and are proud of their foreign language department. Those Who desire a sound classical basis for their future studies and for English itself, and those Who sincerely enjoy delving into the rich, satisfying monuments of Roman literature, elect Latin. The best proof of the potency of Centralls Latin department may be had by simply asking a Latin Hi or t8i student if he is enjoying his classwork. tWe leave out the earlier courses, because that is Where all the work is doneJ German and French follow Latin, their fiIi-rw t , xx; t. 3 K V7 f5; hoary predecessor. French is a cosmopolitan musical tongue, much enjoyed by its students because of the unique textbooks and the phone- tics system employed in teaching pronunciation. The usefulness of French to the student of today is immeasurably valuable in music, art, and literature. Germangthe language made famous by Goethe and Schilleriis also taught at Central. Interesting stories are read in the tongue which is especially useful to those students who desire to read scientific works Which have not been translated from the German. For us, contacts with other Americans, especially in these times, are very necessary. Since Spanish is the language of our neighbors, many Centralites are studying it with a definite eye to its practical potentialities. So, through Centralis language department we have done our bit in welding bonds of under- standing and mutual culture between nations. Seven ly-nne 7 Contrary to the beliefs of most fresh- men, the average Central alumnus agrees that many of his most interesting hours were spent in the social science classes. The exciting arguments which arise during the periods devoted to discussing the moving events of the world today give us an opportunity to voice our thoughts, and, in addition, furnish a connection between the more theoretical studies and the conditions around us. Our Social Science Department offers us American history, economics, ,,and civics. These courses give us the op- portunity to learn of our countryis recent social and economic advances. Best Of all, we are taught from an un- biased viewpointia thing which is impossible in many European nations today. To round out our historical knowledge and to include the history of foreign countries as well as our own, European and English history classes are also offered. These give, to the conscientious student, a much wider perspective for the study of our own nationis history. Seventy-lwo Facts-No Fiction ttWell, you know'what should have hap- penedh is the phrase which is probably heard most often in Centralts Science Department, the home of bacteria, H2804,0hmts Law, strata, and az+b2. However, the varied eX- periments are so numerous that there are literally hundreds which do work. No one who has had the experience will ever forget the biology experiment which calls for the use of pickled grasshoppers. In chemistry, H28 will remain indelibly etched upon our memory, while the movies we saw tboth scientific and otherwiset will not be soon forgotten. Perhaps we should be most grateful to the mathematics department, which gave us a systematic and orderly mind and the background for those thought-provoking physics exercises. Also to be forever graven in our memory are the physi- ology and physiography classes where we learned so much general knowledge to enrich our understanding of the world about us. The next time you see a person drawing circles and lines all over a brand new sheet of paper; the next time you see boys and girls perspiring over pages and pages of flgures and diagrams; and the next time you see students of Central moving their right hands in the motions of a hitch-hiker, dontt rush for the telephone and the men in the white coatSeinstead, remember that Central has a Science Department. Seventy-lhree xZRLvZW 77;. ?WTZV . fie? Dam a No doubt quite a few Centralites are already intimately acquainted With at least one of the several helpful courses offered to both boys and girls by the vocational department. But if, perehance, you are ignorant, read and learn. Many of those who study mechanical draw- ing under the direction of Messrs. Taft and Zwickey will never follow engineering as a pro- fession, yet the hours they spend over the drafting board are not wasted. This course affords training in clear, orderly thinking that at least equals in permanent value the actual knowledge of drawing acquired. To some, the creative urge is symbolized by a pencil, a brush, or, perhaps, a lump of clay; to others, the symbol is a saw, a hammer, or a lathe tool. Their Mecca is the industrial mechanics room, Where they can indulge fully in their creative urge, and at the same time acquire an insight into the intricacies of the different basic industrial processes such as Seven ty-f our ad: Home E81, A forging, wood working, and twining Most of the charming young ladies Who have been interviewed asse1 ted vehemently that they are headed for careers in fashion designing, commercial art, newspaper work, or even teaching. They think, however, that every girl should know something about the manage- ment of a home, and what better place could there be to acquire this essential knowledge than in the home economics classes? Here the girls study cooking tstill the road to a mans hearty, clothing, budgeting, buying, child care. and all the other details that go to make up an eHiciently-managed home. If Centralis vocational department furnishes any clue 'to the fate of this modern generation, pessimists have no cause to despair, for it looks as if Central will bestow upon the world a bevy of homemakers, cooks, woodworkers, and pro- ficient pencil pushers.

Attending special rehearsals, continually learning and mastering new music, hurrying around town to entertain prominent Detroiters ethat is what the members of Centralis Sym- phonic Choir have taken upon themselves. This year the choir did some very fine work in keeping alive the reputation that the 1938 group earned at St. Louis. at was one of four choirs receiving the rating of itHighly Superiori, at the Music Educators, National Conference in the nationwide adjudicationJ Perhaps the outstanding performance of this yearis choir was its part in the North Central Music Educatorsi Conference held in Detroit last March. As the opening feature of the conference, the choir sang a program of sacred music in the vesper service at the Statler Hotel. All the choir members had a part in the pageant, HThe Song of the City, by doing some Sewenty-sir verse-speaking in the prologue, while the boys of the choir, supplemented by the boys glee club, sang a fourteenth century chant, tiThe Magnificatfi The choir also performed for the Michigan Education Association in October, as well as for the ln-and-About Music Club of Detroit in February. One would say that these engage- ments were quite enough for one choir, but not Centralis! Additional programs included those at the Methodist Childrenis Home, the J ewish Community Center, the Detroit Edison Com- pany, a number of churches and schools, and the Detroit Golf Club, where they were liked so well at Christmastime that they were invited to sing again on Easter Sunday. These programs, of course, Often included the verse- speaking selections for which the choir is famous. While the world-famous Dresden Choir was in Detroit in November, its directors visited Central and our choir had the pleasure of sing- ing for them.

Without Picture, Kemp. herger, expressed the opinion that Central had a choir of professional ability, but even better, because they performed only for their own enjoyment. Mr. Seitz is to be highly compli- mented on his ability to produce consistently fine choirs, even though the group is affected each term by a ma j ority graduation. Besides their formal concertizing, the en- semble, as well as the choir, has also contributed to the entertainment of those Who labor Within the walls of Central. The members of this school are not sorry that the ventilators of the music room extend into other parts of the build- ing, for many students are known to look up from their books and keep gay time as the Ensemble goes through its paces. And Whose heart would not quicken to the delightful strains of iiThe Donkey Serenadefi HThe Italian Street Songii, or any of the other light opera selections included in the Ensembleis repertoire.D Every day future Eddys, Swarth- outs, Tibbetts, or What have you, labor dili- gently to make a name for their Alma Mater. During the famous qu-epidemic of 139 the Ensemble had an opportunity to show its true worth under adverse conditions. A number of the group were under the weather, Mr. Seitz was similarly indisposed, and Mrs. Wilson had just left, but they kept up their engagements With the assistance of Mr. Wells and Mrs. Brokaw as substitute battery. The Ensemble appeared With the choir on a number of occasions and made several broad- casts. In addition, they sang for the Home- makersi Club, a number of school assemblies, and other groups too numerous to mention. Perhaps the most momentous, yet saddest, occasion of the current season occurred when the Ensemble sang at the farewell dinner for the iiSWeetheart of Central Highii, Miss Katharine Hine, our retiring assistant principal and beloved counselor. By Virtue of their frequent outside engage- ments, these organizations have made a real contribution to the community. In short, they have really iiearned their salt and have Seventy-seven We Say It With Music nobly preserved the fine reputation that Centralis songsters have so long possessed. But Centralis music is not only from throats -it finds further splendid expression in several instrumental groups. One of these, the Band, is still in its childhood, so to speak, but it has had a growth of J aokeandethe-Beanstalk variety. It was established about five semesters ago and some of the persons who comprised those first groups have remained to form the nucleus of the present organization. They have been supplemented by students Who have mastered the fundamental technique of tooting, piping, 0r 00mpah-ing on hand instruments. Under the able direction of Mr. Wells, the Band has played at football games and has participated in a number of those mueh-enjoyed pep rallies in the school auditorium. En- couraged by wide student appreciation, this ambitious young organization hopes to reach new high standards of excellence. While they do not pretend to be performers of Sousa or Goldman caliber, who is to deny their privilege of iihitching their wagons to the stars? And who knows what f uture artist may emerge from among these promising musicians. The same possibilities for ultimate acclaim are evident in Centralis two orchestras. This year the J unior Orchestra was made up of forty- four members who have had some previous experience. From this group the personnel of the Senior Orchestra are selected each semester. Since this orchestra has but twenty-eight members, it is evident that they areiithe cream of the eropi, and have worked hard to attain that distinction. As proof of their ability, it GIRLSi GLEE CLUB First Row-Mrs. Brokaw, Sussuian, Reno, Wesley, Amsbary, Baschin. Appleby, VVeisman.

Horny I may be interesting to know that Central has an ample representation in the All-City Orchestra. A number of these players are also included in the smaller All-City groups, the Dinner Orches- tra and Special Dinner Ensemble. Centralis Senior Orchestra has had a busy year. In December they made an interesting broadcast over Station WXYZ, designed as a music test for Detroit school children. Record- ings were made of the broadcast which were sent to Ohio State University to be analyzed and placed on flle iifor posterity? The orchestra has also participated in various school activities, including the class play, the opera, and, of course, the Spring Festival. This last-named event was a worthy per- formance as usual. The outstanding feature of the festival was the iiSwan and the Sky- larkib conducted by Victor Kolar. Incidental- ly, the orchestra read from the same score used by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. The festival was a splendid demonstration of the meritorious work done by the music depart- ment this year under the stimulating direction of Mr. Harry Seitz, Mrs. Deora Brokaw, Mr. Preston Wells, Mrs. Lillian Wilson, and Miss Frances Bremer. The department sadly ace knowledges the mid-year retirement of Mrs. Wilson, who has been of invaluable service to Central for many years, and wishes Miss Bremer the greatest success in her new position. itSo thereis the record, brother.

' Sir, the Company Is Formed! DID YOU KNOW . . . . that the business index in Detroit for the 1938-39 season has shown a tremendous increase in the sale of brass-polishing preparations? . . . . that to the technical language of Central have been added the phrases ilcolumn 0f squads, left obliquef and firight front into lineii9 . . . . that the clatter of rifle bolts and guides counting cadence fill the broad reaches of La Salle Boulevard? . . . . that the classrooms are filled with cadets in khaki and the floors resound to the tramp 0f marching feet.D All this points to the great increase of interest in Company C, Centralfs unit of the Reserve Officers, Training Corps. The typical cadet first enrolls because of his Hone and onlyisil admiration of the uniform. In his first semester he learns the rudiments of drill, the rifle nomenclature, history of the R.O.T.C., first aid, sanitation, military conduct, and the fact that a corporalls stripes enhance the beauty of his uniform. He also begins to admire the small bits of colored cloth pinned over the upper left pocket of the tunic and con- sequently strives to win as many as possible by performing extra services such as attending sporting events, assisting in traffic duty, parti- cipating in parades, and studying military tactics. Further on in the course more ad- vanced knowledge, such as map reading, target practice, and combat principleswgr acquired. u! v n .1 In addition to receiving many awards, the unit has achieved honor rating in the Sixth Corps Area. This distinction is due to large enrollment tthe company has more than tripled in size since its establishment here in 1927i, perfect drill, good discipline, and many other important factors. The climax of each yearis intensive training is the annual R.O.T.C. Field Day which is held every spring at Briggs Stadium. Here awards are made in all fields of' instruction: tent pitch- ing, first aid, manual of arms, signalling, and extended order drill. Thus Sergeant Crosby has slowly built up a body of boys who are well equipped to serve their countryein time of war With their military training, and in time Of peace with their acquired sense of discipline, sportsmanship, and efficiency. RIFLE TEAM One Of the most popular features of the R.O.T.C. is the rifle team, which provides an opportunity for those With an inherent love of firearms. Since its inception in 1936, Sergeant Crosby has produced a host of excellent sharp- shooters. In 1938 Central placed eleventh in the Sixth Corps Area Match, which is a compe- tition held among all R.O.T.C. units in Michi- gan, Illinois, and Indiana. This semester our rifle team was the only one to defeat South- eastern, the city champion. R.O.T.C. RIFLE TEAM F irst Bow-Collins, Phelpst Peirce, Begle, Pagano.

Some things still perplex us; for instance, where is this Student Council welve heard so much about and what is it for, anyhoo.b Then, like a bolt from the blue, in- to the midst of a peaceful m group period bounces a beaming Student Coun- cil member. She tells us all about the whys and wherefores of the music department. Every day someone enlightens us on a different sub- ject, till we know all about athletics, jour- nalism, the R.O.T.C., art and music depart- ments, and clubs in Central. Weire as much Centralites as any of those highlnlmighty seniors; shucks, we know our way around, now! Comes the first copy of the Central Student with much excitement and laughing at jokes twelre still freshiesleand there on the front page is that eternal Student Council!

The other day we happened to notice a statue outside of 223 that weid never seen before. We found out it didnit sprout there overnight like a mushroom, but was just hiding in the dark back there until the Student Council took hold and had the lights turned on again.

In addition to the pleasure derived from membership, the members have the opportunity of becoming staff photographers for the Centralite, as Mr. Nelson, the sponsor, selects his staff from this organization. For the fall semester the officers chosen were Joseph Natinsky, president; Joseph Cabot, viceupresident; Alexandria Costopoulos, secre- tary; and Eugene Mandeberg, treasurer. Of- ficers elected for the spring semester were Arrold Goldberg, president; Karl Stillwater, vice-president; Alexandria Costopoulos, secre- tary; and Eugene Mandeberg, treasurer. At the regular meetings pictures are passed around, commented upon, and freely criticized. Besides this, a series of lectures on photography, illustrated by slides, was given during the fall semester. In March the club Visited the General Motors Photographic Laboratories and Studios, one of the most fully equlpped in the world. Another trip was made to find out how photographs are made ready for publication in newspapers and magazines. Later in the spring, the Camera Club, together with the Centralite staff, attended a picnic. The spot was found ideal for picture taking. Another interesting event in the busy spring semester was the meeting at which Mr. Kuenzel, photographic editor of the Detroit News, spoke to the Camera Club about the newspaper and photography. The aim of the Camera Club is to encourage more and better photography. With this in mind, Mr. Nelson organized a tsaloni contest, the tsalon, being the Centralite showcase opposite room 303. The win- ning photographs appear else- where in the Centralite. One of the most fascinating w of the activities of the Camera Club is the taking of candid shots in and about school.

Comes Spring vacation time, and the staff of the Central Student, especially the graduate ing members, will be able to look back upon the last year with smug smiles and re-chew all the tender morsels of fun, work, and surprise that were provided in such abundance. E specially will they remember the excite- ment that prevailed when Mr. Spencer S. F ishbaine, faculty adviser, announced last fall that Central would send about a dozen dele- gates to the National Scholastic Press Asso- ciation convention in Indianapolis, Indiana. aturally there was plenty offered in the way of education at the Convention, but the perfectly keen time had by all was due mostly to the friendly attitude and carnival spirit. hen, of course, there was that issue of January 12 that met with so much comment. It made the gang feel pretty swell when cards, cards, and more cards came piling in requesting copies of the issue. eally sad, though, was the time the Staff had to say goodbye to the graduating editors. It was such fun working with Editor-in-Chief Eugene Kornfield and the rest of the editorial nd besides, it meant taking on all sorts of new responsibilities. At flrst it was hard, but in no time at all, they caught on and all the little tricks of the trade were at their command. Ledford and Tann, better known as Murta and Eddy, took over the piloting duties for the Spring term and did a swell job of it, too. tallO activities resumed as usual when the new members were llbroken inf, aking pictures for the Centralite created a lot of hub-bub. nderstand, however, that with all the playing around and llkiddingll there was work, and plenty of it, to be done. ummy pages to be made, galley sheets to read, heads to compose, and llears to box. nthusiasm personified describes the staff perfectly. 0t even the good news brought back by Mr. Fishbaine from The Columbia Scholastic Press Association Convention caused the staff to lilet up? I 0 think that theyld been awarded Medalist rating in the annual judging! Top honors had been theirs before, but this coveted position, Medalist, was a real honor. No wonder the graduating staff will be so sorry to leave; and no wonder the remaining members look forward so eagerly to next term when they will occupy editorsl positions.

William Shakespeare and his sixteenth cen- tury contemporaries may have delighted in spinning tall tales at their Mermaid Tavern in London, but they enjoyed themselves no more than do Centralis literary-minded members of the Quill and Scroll Society. The Quill and Scroll is an international honorary society for high school journalists, founded for the purpose of rewarding individ ual accomplishments in journalistic and creative writing. Among its nineteen hundred chapters is the Oswald Garrison Villard Chapter of Central, Which has taken its name from an honorary founder of the organization. To become a possessor of the cherished gold pin, symbol of Quill and Scroll, one must be enrolled in the eleventh 0r twelfth grade, have produced superior journalistic or creative work, and stand in the upper third of his class scholastieally. iiQuill and Scroll dayii is held twice a month, When members present short stories, poetry, plays, and book reviews at the meetings. Another activity is partici- pation in the various contests y Offered by the society each year. Among the national Winners and receivers 0f hon- orable mention during the past year were Irving Berg, Evelyn Kass, and Sol Sachs.

These young men and women who make the rounds of the A.M. and PM. groups are a brave and fearless lot! Imagine entering a room filled with some hfty studentsistudents who eye you defiantly, some who are too rude to listen, some asleep be- hind their books, and the rest talking, or looking very bored and uninterested! Quite a hopeless task to be confronted with, but Cen- tralls minute-men not only talk, but act. They come in to sell basketball tickets, football tickets, dance tick- ets, Christmas seals, and everything imaginable, and when they get through talking, they sell! Youive never heard of the minute-man llwho gave such a good speech that the only person he sold a ticket to was himself, leause there aint no such person! The Cen tral Minu te Men were organized under the leadership of Mr. Spencer S. Fishbaine, who is still the very able sponsor. Ferne Hear, the only oflicer, is Secretary. Besides the great N inety-four Fourth Row-Gordon, Seiden, Alexander, honor of practicing salesmanship on Centralites, Minute Men are privileged to wear a pin made like the winged foot of Mercury and attend the annual banquet. And there is an interesting human side to this Club, too. Every minute man is a subject for discussion, and although it is almost impossible to describe each member, there are a few that can be mentioned. If you have had an energe- tic young man barge into your room and speak so elegantly that you bought a ticket without the usual heartbreak, then you know the young manls name must be Myron Danni And if youlve noticed the young gentlemen feverishly buying tickets to the school dances, donlt blame it on their youth, itls Ilene Schiller! Are you seeing double the way were seeing double? We swear we have seen a very pretty young lady leave the room, but the next minute she,s back again! Well, its not an optical illusion, its the Richardson Twins! And so, when these dynamic creatures show their faces in your room, be polite and attentive. Show them you have school spirit and support your activities and teams by buying tickets from them. And let it be a good omen when you say, lth, teacher, those Minute Men are here again?

His sense of humor and under- standing 0 adolescence have helped tremen- dously Mine growth and development of the Science Club of Central High. The results of this equation are quite a col- lection of compounds or, if you prefer, mixtures of which the first, our publications, the X-Rays, were formed from numerous elements contribut- ed by the members but assorted and arranged by staffs of which Bertha Robinson and Eugene G. Kovach were editors, and financially man- aged by Martha Sussman and her business staff. These booklets proved quite a source of information and were praised by all readers. Last years newly-formed club published the first X-Bay, and this years improved the idea and expanded it by publishing two issues instead of the one of last year. Another in the collection of compounds was the essay contest sponsored for the purpose of promoting interest in the biology, chemistry, and physics courses: The most important constituent was an essay, iiAtomsii, contributed by Marvin Schmerer, Who was acclaimed winner of Paul DeKruifis book liWhy Keep Them Alive? The first atom composing the field trip mole- cule was an excursion to the Cranbrook Insti- tute of Science, one of the greatest science exhibits in the making. The second was a trip to Park, Davis and Company, where only having to view the pill-making process was a relief to our strong huskies tmeaning no offense to the girlsl. V isiting the plant that gives us the miracle of light, since the light of learning is not bright enough to luminate the night, was the third constituent of this important mole- N inety-s i2: cule, for in a chartered bus we made a trip to the Fort Street Branch of the Detroit Edison Company. Our last atom was our trip to the Dearborn Factory 0f the Ford Motor Company, where the testing laboratories held the attention of the majority. This last trip brought hopes that the compound formed next year will consist of as great a number of worthwhile elements. With Biology, Chemistry, and Physics as topics for the fall term, a lecture on birds with imitations of their calls was given as a Biology program while demonstrations and discussions were successfully undertaken by the students themselves on Chemistry and Physics. An unusual result of our equation was the iiInformation Pleasel, program on which the students had the delightful sensation of questioning a committee of teachers and students acting as experts. The program was open to all students interested. The officers elected this year can be classified as catalysts, since they by gentle GU persuasion helped speed up the clubs reactions. In the fall term 0 P77 Robert Weisman served as M President, Eugene G. Kovach as Vice-President, Rita Spick- ler as Secretary, and Irving Rosow as Treasurer. In the spring term Irving Rosow was elevated to the position of President, with Morris Lax as Vice-President, Lenore J aslow as Secretary, and Bruce Renaud in the enviable position of Treasurer. The ofiicers succeeded in transforming all potential energy, stored up during school hours, into kinetic during club meetings which were alive with interest and enjoyment. D The year was appropriately concluded by a picnic in the great outdoors. All members, exhausted by laughter, waved goodbye to club year 1938-1939 and turned expectantly to face the coming term.

N inety-seven With the coming of the Summer vacation the curtain is again lowered on another yearts program of Girl Reserve activities. Remi- niscing, we find at the beginning of each semester the traditional candle lighting cere- menial at Westminster Presbyterian Church being held to welcome new members. Follow- ing the solemn service was a gay dinner at which the new members became ttslavesf, and obeyed the preposterous commands of the Older Girl Reserves. ttUnderstanding Minority Groupstt was the theme for study by the group for the Fall term. A talk by Mrs. Madeline Fowler 0f the Lucy Thurman Branch of the Y.W.C.A. 0n ttProblems of the American Negroh paved the way for further discussion. Movies showing the activities of the Community Fund were presented at another meeting. As a part of their service work, the Girl Reserves assisted the Hi-Y in distributing Thanksgiving baskets to needy families, and at Christmas time the girls dressed dolls for the Goodfellows. Central Urirl Reserves were active in City- wide events, too. Many attended the Old World Market at the International Center of the Y.W.C.A. and were delighted with the strange foods and quaint displays. At the Penny Carnival, the Central girls were in charge of the popular fish-pond and also played an important part in the main show. Central delegates were instrumental at the conference at Camp Talahi, the mid-winter conference at Bay City, and the joint G. R.-t- -Y conference here in Detroit. t h v I At one meetln .

Retiring officers who have directed the clubs activities under the guiding hands of the sponsors, Miss Grace Anderson, Miss Mary Brewer, and Miss Elizabeth Mason, are the following: president, Barbara Bostwiek; Vice- president, Suzanne Truesdell; treasurer, Janet Richardson; recording secretary, Mary Louise Meyer; corresponding secretary, Jean Chap- man; and inter-club council representative Barbara Amsbary.

An important part of the Young Menis Christian Association, the Hi-Y, exists not only for its own welfare, but for that of the com- munity as well. This club, made up of young men with high ideals and the $1 urge to go forward, has taken t great strides in promoting its purpose, which is iito maintain and create a higher standard of character throughout the school and community? At Central, the past year has been a very active and interesting one for the Blue and the White chapters of the Hi-Y. Early in the fall term the Blue chapter elected the following officers: James Hayward, president; La Rue Neal, vice-president; Robert Boger, secretary; and George Cato, treasurer. Elected to head the White Chapter were Murray Markland, One hundred two president; Herbert Bretzlaff, Vice-president; Harry Jensen, secretary; and Traver Sutton, treasurer. Among the joint activities sponsored by the group was the mother and son banquet. At this dinner, EX-Governor Wilbur Bruckeris inspiring talk on tiMaking It Countia helped to make the evening a memorable one. Com- munity endeavors included the distribution by both chapters of baskets of food to the needy at T hanksgiving time. Through their efforts during Christmas, baskets of edibles were again distributed, and contributions were made to the Goodwill Industries Fund. School activi- ties included assisting in the lunch room, and printing and distributing programs at the football games. On iidate night, the White Chapter had as its speaker Dr. Voelker, superintendent Of Schools of Grand Rapids, who gave a worth- while talk. The two chapters sponsored an informal dance at the Wardell early in J anuary. It was an extremely enjoyable evening, adding another success to the long list of Hi-Y enter- tainments. The White Chapter elected the following officers for the spring term: president, Herbert Bretzlaff; vice-president, Traver Sutton; secree tary, William Morris; and treasurer, Alex Donaldson. The Blue Chapter elected Don Congdon, president; Robert Roshirt, vice- president; George Cato, secretary; and William McKinnon, treasurer. The boys decided to adopt as the purpose of the spring term the promoting of religious tolerance. In order to carry on this program, speakers representing several faiths addressed the groups. These in- cluded Mr. Zanolli, Who spoke on Buddhism, Rabbi Adler, on J udaism, and Father Markey, 0n Catholicism. In March a district meeting was held in the Central Auditorium. Hi-Y chapters from Central, Cooley, Northwestern, Mackenzie, and Tappan were represented. Emphasis was placed on the idea of world service. Late in the spring, a City-Wide conference of Hi- Y,S and Girl Reserves was held atthedowntown Y.M.C.A. The Blue Chapter planned for the spring semester 3 date night and the induction of officers. The White Chapter completed its plans for the annual father and son banquet. The sponsors are Mr. Birger Bakke, Hi-Y Blue Chapter, and Mr. John D. Phillips, Hi-Y White Chapter.

Kinday surprised some fellow studes who never heard of Navy Day before, but sure was a good excuse for missing that tough history exam. Besides this program, the club, which has had a particularly active year, conducted several other successful activities.

We thought certainly that we would lose some of our boys to the Army when theyr saw the bee-u-ti-ful soldiers. Yep, the oflicers 0f the fall term were pa- lenty proud of their administration and rightly so. Incidentally, they were: Evelyn Kass, president; June Gold, vice-president; Martha Sussman, secretary; and Rose Brooks, treasurer. The spring term was just as full of pleasant surpriseSefirinstance, the jury panel discussion on ilMunich, Before and After. Lenore Jaslow, Alex Kahanowicz, Art Miller, Maxwell Nadis, F10 Schurgin, and Roslyn Wiener started the discussion, but it wasnlt long before all the members were deep in the heat of the debate.

Once again the Centralite has the honor of putting a new 0th between its covers. After two years of terrifiio struggle, Central has a Badminton Clubiand this is how it came about: Three years ago one of Americas fastest- growing games became popular among some of our students, and they immediately took steps to start a club. But things didnlt go as easily as they had hoped. They had no regular sponsor, and they were never sure of getting the gym. The second year was much more successful. The Badminton Club was reorganized by Mr. Minton of the Social Science Department, and under his sponsorship a suc- cessful tournament was played, the winners to play in a game with Northwestern. The Central team tried hard and put up a good fight even if they did lose. This year is the most successful of all. The Club is now fully or- ganized; it has a full membership with a large waiting list and is an official club. Now it has taken its final step-it is represented in the Centralite. One hundred six And so, once a week, if you take the trouble you will see birds flying all over the Central gym. To those who know nothing of Badminton and think birds are things which fly south every winter, let me explain that a iibirdli, in the Badminton vernacular, is a strange feathered object which the players endeavor to hit with their rackets. However, not all the time is spent in careless pleasure, for the club mem- bers are also given instruction on the finer points of the game. Badminton is a good, fast sport, in many ways excelling tennis. It provides the player with loads of fun as well as healthy exercise. The games are played in doubles. The average game lasts about fifteen minutes. Wishing the new club continued success, we hope to see it represented in the Centralite for many years to come. The liCl, Club has much to be proud of in the way of membership, activity, and success. Every member is a fellow who has in some manner contributed toward making Centralls sports record one of which we can he justly proud. Those letters that adorn the proud Chests of our heroes stand as a symbol of the effort and spirit of these hoys whose greatest satisfaction comes with some athletic triumph. Under the able sponsorship of Coach Loef- fler the llCll Club has achieved many con- structive and benehcial ac- complishments. Last year when Abe Eizelman, presie dent, Aaron Whitehorn, Vice-president, and Sam Solomon, secretaryetreasur- er, were at the helm, the club collaborated with the Student Council in present- ing lhe Presidentls Ball, an outstanding suc- Firsl Rowivllhitehorn, Soloman, Eizelman, Loelller. cess. Among other things, Samuel Bishop coach of the Northwestern High School football team, held a lecture on football at one of the meetings. The interest of the boys was aroused and later increased when Coach Bishop showed them some movies which illustrated his points. At the spring election James Funk was elected president, Sam Solomon, Vice-president, and Ronald Whetter, secretary-treasurer. A new and varied program was mapped out. This year, as last, the boys are planning to invite some prominent sports mentor or coach who will hold a lecture which he will supplement with movies. The Club also plans to hang the pictures of Centralls winning teams around the walls of the boys health office as a lasting tribute to those who have left Centralls portals. This organization has carved a large niche for itself in the heart of dear old Central, and we are confident that in the future it Will continue to enlarge and grow more popular.

Founded at Old Central by Mrs. Sanderson, this club has cone tributed much to the gracious atmosphere of school social functions. Its members try to promote an interest in Home Economics, in- crease good fellowship, and improve the scholar- ship of girls taking a general course. Officers for the fall term were Delphine Hyman, president; Ida Rich, vice-president; Dorothy Wampler, corresponding secretary; V irginia Brand, recording secretary; and Doris Tushman, treasurer. Spring term ofiicers are Delphine Hyman, president; Bertha Kanfer, vice-president; Rhoda Shafer, recording secre- tary; Miriam Perin, corresponding secretary; and Frances Tubben, treasurer. As the club program this year is the study of everyday problems in etiquette, a round- table discussion of these problems is held at each meeting. The club also attempts to develop an interest in the afiiliation of under- One hundred eight graduate clubs in Michigan and the American Home Economics Association. Accompanied by the club sponsor, Miss Ella Davenport, the girls met representatives of other clubs belonging to the J unior Federation Home Economics Association and were entertained and served :, 9 with refreshments at a ' Christmas party held at Cass Technical High School last December. Delphine Hyman represented the w t... club at the iiall-Cityh luncheon meeting in Octo- ber held at the Statler. The luncheon was attended by Detroiters with an active interest in home economics and presented Dr. Hoffman of Eloise Hospital, who spoke on iiPersonality Economics. For the cheerful service rendered by its members, for its active participation in city- wide activities, and for its promotion of interest in Homemaking, Central may well be proud of its Ellen H.

This is only one of the ways in which the members of the Hispanic Society entertain themselves. Under the aus- pices 0f the entertainment committee, headed by Fred Ginsberg, programs have been ar- ranged to promote a further interest in Spanish and increase our knowledge concerning the customs and the people of the Spanish-speaking countries. Miss Ella Slyfield addressed the society on Mexico. Her topic dealt with the people, the customs, and the effect which the torrid climate has on the activity of the peons. South America and its modern Viewpoint were discussed by Miss Adelaide Russell of N orthern High School. Spanish games of mixed letters representing names of South American countries, Spanish Bingo, and other interesting and educa- tional pastimes are enjoyed by the members of the society. Membership cards have been issued to pro- mote a closer unity among the Spanish students. There are thirty-five members of the Hispanic Society, which was re-estab- lished in April 1938, under if the sponsorship of Mrs. Helen W McKenzie and Mr. J ohn Madonna. The officers for the J anuary x term are Ruth Darling, presi- w dent; Fred Ginsberg, vice- president; Mary Senesi, secre- tary; Jerome Ash, treasurer. The society usually meets once a month, and after the formal business meeting in which are discussed plans for future meetings, a program either of games, music, lectures, or a play is presented by members of the club. One hundred nine Tommy A PLAY IN THREE ACTS by HOWARD LINDSAY and BERTRAND ROBINSON Presented by the J anuary I939 Graduating Class under the Direction of HELEN J. DELBRIDCE The scene was one of infinite tenderness and love, as she cradled her exhausted husbandls head in her arms; my heart was filled with mixed emotions as I heaved a relieved and con- tented little sigh. Then the scene disappeared behind dark velvet and I added my share of noise in an ovation that shook the rafters, the whole building, in fact, for this was the con- elusion 0f the last act of Tommy. There I stood, enthralled by the appearance of the characters for their lnth curtain call: first, Marie Thurber, portrayed by beautiful, allur- ing Dorothy Babcoek tgee, envy, go awayD; then Hugh Williams, heartethrob of the stage tlegitimate or otherwisey, as the irresistible Tommy Miller tHeart, stop acting so sillyD; next, the newest Romeo, Robert Boger, alias Don J uan, playing the exciting role of Bernard tgirls, if you prefer the cave-man typeil; then Mr. and Mrs. Thurber, represented tif you havenIt already guessedl by J ane Burdiek and Morris Schultz; in their company as always, loveable David Tuttle, or, as we know him, Sanders Raizin; these are followed by the Wilson family, Judge tIrving Sideny, Mrs. tJean LarsonL and Willie tDelmar Landeny, whose politics, curiosity tunhealthyy, and noise, respectively, formed important accessories to the production. And last but by no means least, Director Delbridge, the producer, direc- tor, financial adviser, etc., of this profitable comedy, Tommy. I sighed again because it was past my bedtime, and I started slowly walking out of good old Cenl, seeing the play all over again in my mindls tno remarksl eye. Ah! there they are-Marie and Tommy in love, wanting to enter the institution tno silly, not that onel of matrimony, but unable to do so because the path of their love was too smooth, for marriage was exactly what Ma and Pa Thurber wanted. Marie, an independent young miss, wanted to make up her own mind One hundred ten instead of doing what mamma said twhieh really was exactly what Marie wantedj This is the cue for the llvillianh tnot such a bad one, thoughy, Bernard, who makes love to our Marie and unnecessary remarks to Mommy and Daddy, causing their distaste. But through Uncle Davidls masterful maneuvering, the tables turn and Mr. and Mrs. T hurber turn their affection to Bernard and a cold shoulder to Tommy, Which naturally brings the satis- fying results: Marie marries T ommy, Bernard drops out of the picture, and Mom and Dad are happy because they were right about their daughterls suitors in the first place. Mind if I giggle.D Mr. Thurber in his short nightshirt just flashed through my mind, and with it, the roaring delight of the audience. Strange that I can see every detail so clearly, even the porchlight, unlighted if Marie has her way, and the unseen porch swing, and Mr. Thurberls desk, the stairway and setting. You know, confidentially, Mrs. Ver- sehaeve and her art staff are to be given credit and praise for their wonderful assistance. The orchestra, which enter- WI tained between acts, also is N to be commended. They prac- ticed tyes, some few people L doy for weeks under the able leadership of Mr. Wells. It was after one of their selections that the flnal act of Tommy began and it was at the conclusion of the final act that the scene appearedithe scene, one of infinite tenderness and love, as Marie cradled in her arms the head of her husband, exhausted by the rapidity with which events had been happening.

Not even when the cast was dis- missed for the day were they able to forget their scores and librettos, for they ate, played, thought, and dreamt llYeomen 0f the Guardw until the big night arrived. itThere is humor in all things,H quoth Jack Point, and this adage was applicable to all rehearsals as the cast made frequent excursions to the side door, where a portable radio was broadcasting occasional baseball reports, he- sides providing dance music for the group between their appearances before the footlights. Members of the company agreed that one of the highlights of the rehearsals was Mr. Seitzls versatility both as a musical director and as a unique interpreter of the various characters. The cast received its baptism of fire in the , dress rehearsal which was attended, as has been customary in the past, by the faculty of a nearby parochial school, as well as by several members of the journalistic staffs who were about to depart for their annual convocation in Ann Arbor. Finally the climax of weeks of intensive preparation arrived, and the cast trod the boards like veterans, to the great delight of the house, packed full both nights with Centralites, their families, and their friends. For weeks afterward, this reporter has been seeking comments and opinions upon the presentation, and he is proud to report that the sum total of all is that it was indubitably the most interesting and finest opera yet produced at Central. The Yeomen came in for their f all share of the acclaimv-with special emphasis upon their wigs; Shadbolt won the sympathies of all, and the hearts of the audience were captured by Phoebe, Colonel Fairfax, and Elsie. An interesting sidelight has been reported that Jack Point, jester of the utmost, received a huge ovation plus three contracts from ballet troupes. One hundred thirteen Silling-Grubstein, J .

Even Horatio Alger could never have con- ceived of a success story that matches that of this years Central debate squad. At the beginning of the fall semester, the situation facing the aspirants t0 the squad seemed hope- less. Mr. Conrad W. Freed, who coached the 1937-38 team, had left for California to study for a doctor of philosophy degree. Since the school was unable to get a new coach to replace him, Mr. Spencer S. Fishbaine, director of forensics, announced that Central would prob- ably be without a debate squad for the coming season. However, there was such a demand for a debate team that Mr. Gordon M. Minton 0f the Social Science Department consented to take over the One hundred fourteen coaching duties, although he had never piloted a squad before. Finally, after two months, delay, the team was cut down to nine members, and the season commenced auspiciously with a squad composed of J acoh Gordon, Martin Horowitz, and Roslyn Wiener, who gained a decisive victory over Denby at Wayne Uni- versity. But the same group was defeated later in the afternoon by a Pershing High School squad. The topic for these debates was hResolved that the United States should form an alliance with Great Britainf the topic for the season. Devoid of any semblance of the over-con- fldence that had lost them the Denhy debate, Martin Horowitz, Ben Grubstein, and Jacob Gordon overwhelmed Ham- tramckls debaters, again Q5, upholding the negative. Q37? The judges of this debate added their praises to those accorded Central in the Denby meet, again men- tioning the faculty the boys had for clear case analysis and close co-ordination of arguments. After another monthls preparation, this time for the affirmative side of the issue, Central placed another team to the fore composed of Myron Dann, Milton Gordon, and Roslyn Wiener, who were able to defeat Redfordis debaters and keep the Blazer Victory streak intact. Then came the seasons most im- portant debate for Central. It was with Northern, city champion of the previous year. The Eskie squad had gone through four debates undefeated before Centralls Martin Horowitz, Ben Grubstein, and Jacob Gordon beat them decisively. Another victory over N orthwestern, with the same boys debating, followed, and Central ended her regular season tied with Northern for the city championship. The final was held at Central, Januaryr 16, and was the best attended of all Central debates, drawing an audience of over 600. Dr. Warren E. Bow, assistant superintendent of schools, was chairman, and Mrs. Elizabeth Youngjohn, Mr. Garnet Garrison, both of Wayne University, and Miss Ann McGurk, acted as judges. The decision was unanimous- ly awarded to the Central team, which was proclaimed city champion. Dr. Preston Scott, head of the speech department at Wayne University, awarded the team a silver trophy and presented the six members of the team who had actively participated in earlier contests with gold keys engraved iiCity Championship-1938Y, The direct result of this Victoryr was parti- cipation in the state quarter-final debate. On March 31 a team composed of Martin Horoe witz, Ben Grubstein, and Roslyn Wiener up- held the negative side of the issue successfully against a strong River Rouge High School team. This victory topped all records posted by previous debate teams and sent Central into the state and semi-finals. In this debate, held in Battle Creek, Central upheld the affirmative side of the question. Here Centralls streak of Victories was ended at seven successive debates, and Battle Creek went on to meet Flint Central in the state championship debate while Central received the semi-finalist cup. The Central team was composed of Martin Horowitz, Myron Dann, and Ben Grubstein. In the state eliminations the iBlazerl squad was handicapped by the graduation of J acob Gordon, who was the teams regular third speaker. He, along with Martin Horowitz and Ben Grubstein, comprised a team which judges constantly praised for excellent debating strategy. Intramural debating is something in which most of us are interested. Up until this semester, intra- mural debates have been held between study hall teams. This semester, how- ever, that practice has been abandoned as not all of the study halls were represented in the tryouts. At present there are seven intramural teams consisting of two members each. Mr. Minton with the assistance of the V arsity debating team will coach the new debaters and judge their debates. Their subject for debate will be ilResolved that the Federal Government should own and operate railroads? When a team loses one negative and one aflirmative debate, it is automatically eliminated from the contest. Next semester the Varsity Team will have as its nucleus Milton Gordon, Roslyn Wiener, and Martin Horowitz, Myron Dann and Ben Brubstein being the two who are graduating in J une. As yet, Mr. Minton does not know who will replace these two very fine debaters, but he hopes to find promising material in the group of intramural debaters. One hundred fifteen The joke about the senior who, on the last day of the term, went into the library hhto see What it looked like0 is humorous but hardly likely to occur at Central. Pupils are generally drawn to the library almost immediately upon their arrival at Central because of the necessity of outside reading for various classes. Our large collection of books, both fiction and non-fiction, Which numbers over 7,000, and the pleasant atmosphere of the library attract many people. In addition to its books, the library has many interesting magazines, in- cluding The National Geographic, The Nation, Vogue, and Life. Several memorials decorate the library: portraits of former principals, and the heautiful World War memorial, designed and executed by Roy Gamble, a Central alumnus. The library has received many books as gifts this year. These include Anne Lindberghs Listen, the Wind, Eve Curies biography of her mother, Madame Curie, Rachel Field,s All This and Heaven, T00, and The Citadel by Dr. A. L. Cronin. The books are arranged on the shelves accord- ing to the Dewey Decimal System, as follows: 000AGeneral Works 100-Philosophy 200gReligi0n 3004Soei010gy 400eLanguage SOOeSCience 600AUseful Arts TOOiFine Arts 800iLiterature 900-Hist0ry This arrangement simplifles the matter of finding books and aequaints the student with the system used in all standard libraries. A11 biographies are in Conference Room D and foreign language books in Conference Room E. The five encyclopedias Which are in the library are as follows: Americana, Britannica, Comptonhs, New International, and the World Book. You will find people on duty in the library every hour.

Amid such sounds, accompanied by the clear- ing of more than a hundred and twenty-five Central throats, the Radio Unit audition was held October 18, 1938. Mr. Willis Brooks was the potentate sitting in judgment on the trembling aspirants, each one of whom stood in his turn before the mike just outside the door. When the signal was given, the hopeful one read something, which was transmitted by loudspeaker to everyone in the room, sometimes with rather astonishing results. What seemed ordinary static was easily identified to be the knocking of knees and chattering of teeth. When Mr. Brooks had listened long enough, someone tapped gently m on the glass and the next culprit took his place. Then it was over, and the only thing to do was to wait and try to save a few fingernails for the history test next week. Finally, after many anxious moments, the twenty-four lucky members were chosen and the Radio Unit began to get down to business. Mr. Brooks, the harassed sponsor of these tiraring radioitesii, stepped into the breach When Mr. Conrad Freed, who organized the group in September, 1937, left Central last fall. Although it is as yet too young to boast any stars among its former members, the group has contributed to numerous school programs, and one of its number, Irvinn Strub, is now going more seriously into radio work. Among those who have appeared are Roslyn Wiener, Shel- don Kushner, J ack Corinblitt, and Irvinn Strub. Last February the club, as a group, presented over WJR a play written by V iotor B. Kush- ner, a Central alumnus, and in March again monopolized the ether, this time over WWJ on a iiMareh of Youth, program. N 0t only are members of the Radio Unit broadcasters, but even playwrights. So far none of these original skits have been produced, but many good ones have been written. Besides writing plays and rehearsing programs at meetings, the group reads scripts, listening to each others voices, and trying to improve diction and expression. Mr. Frank Tilford of the Radio Department of the Board of Education has attended several meetings and has selected voices for various programs. Central is winning fresh laurels through her radio activities and, even without beneflt of a crystal ball, we predict a shining future for this group.

We want to discover our faults and really correct them. That was the thought in the minds of fifteen girls who eagerly met with Miss Meleta Har- mon, early in December, to discuss the forma- tion of a new Central Club. One of Miss Harmonis students had conceived the idea that a Club might be formed to instruct girls in personal and social hygiene, and several other girls were equally enthusiastic about the idea. The Quest Club, as it was named, elected the following officers: Helen Scott, president; Lois Doroh, Vice-president; Natalie Mattern, secre- tary. Prospective members were entertained One hundred eighteen at a tea in February, and ten new members were added to the club roster. Questis meetings, which are held every other Tuesday, offer entertainment, instruction, and frequently tea to members. Games are played, talks are given on personalities, popularity, fashions, and posture. The club aims to deal with any worthwhile problems which confront its members, and, by developing their personalities, to help them to be interesting and useful members of society. Their first active bit of social service was to distribute toys at Christmas to needy families. Plans for the future include a spring tea for the mothers of club members and a dance. Spaiee aiml For the last few years, bowling has been a popular pastime at Central. Boys who were interested met with faculty sponsors at a nearby bowling alley twhose greatest claim was a 60a cut on prices for Central High SehooD to see who could knock down the most pins. This year Mr. Henshaw was the faculty sponsor and met with the boys. However, it wasnit until March of 1939 that the first efforts were made to form a bowling club. With Mr. Henshawls aid, permission and a room for meeting was obtained. Because of the forming of a club, many new bowlers turned out as well as many experienced ones who had not taken advantage of previous opportunities. At the initial meeting the following officers were elected: President, Robert Oshinsky; V ice- President, Robert McLelland; Co-Seeretaries, Jerry Blumenthal and Sidney Alexander; Treasurer, Martin Morrison. Members were told that meetings would he on alternate Monday afternoons and that Wednesday every week would be bowling day. The officers formed a plan for competition.

The scores turned in were used also as a basis for forming teams to bowl against one another. Regular scoring sheets were made out and the teams records kept, different teams playing against each other every Wednesday. This competition acted as the spice of the program and encouraged better bowling. In May, the best bowlers of the Club had an in- teresting match with some of the men teachers from school, and learned that their teachers knew a few things; besides how much 2 and 2 are! One of the earnest aims of the club was to start inter-school competition and to stimulate interest in bowling. The members of the Bowling Club hope that they have started a city-wide high school movement, and that bowling may become a varsity athletic activity in the future.

One hundred lwenty-two Angels with Dirty Faces At what time of the year is school spirit the highest? When do the girls spend all their time thinkingifof a certain group of eleven boys? During what season is the least home- work done? The answer to all these questions and many more of the same type is the same- during the football season. Because the 38 season has already faded into the distant past, you may have forgotten the joys and sorrows of the student body during the reign of King Football, so let me review with you this past seasonis games. Because Central had one of the heaviest lines in the city, and because the team was strength- ened by several able veterans, Captain White- horn, Eizelman, Soke, and Solomon, Coach Loeffler was led to believe that our teamis rating this year would be much better than it had been for the past few seasons. For the first game of the season Central met Northern in a non-league contest which we won after a hard fight by one point, the score being 7-6. Our next two games, with the West Side,s strongest teams, Cooley and U. of D. High, proved to be the ruin of all our hopes. In both games our team took a severe beating, but never for a moment did they lose their spirit. We were shut out in a 30-0 Cooley game, and again in a 13-0 U. of D. game. However, after the latter game Central was proud of her team, for the boys gave U. of D. the toughest tight their team encountered all season. Central deserved to win that game even if all they showed was a wonderful will to win. As it happened, we found that the bitter taste of defeat wasnIt our only worry, for we had also lost one of our best men, Captain Aaron White- horn, who was very seriously injured. As it soon became apparent that he would not be able to play again all season, he was replaced by Solomon, who was made acting captain for the remainder of the season. After having been put out of the running for the city title by two successive set-backs and after losing a Captain who was one of the teams star players, Central earned the right to be called tithe team that never gives upf for in the next game Central beat Mackenzie 20-0. Soke made nineteen of the points on three touchdowns and one conversion. He made one of his touchdowns after an exciting 55-yard sprint. Eizelman, our right end, scored the other point on a line plunge after the attempted kick had been blocked. Then came the game of the season, the game which Centralites await with a mixture of strange emotions, the game which always draws the largest crowds- O the Northwestern game. The hundreds of students who turned out to witness the game were rewarded when Central won after a very close game in which 3. both teams showed excel- lent defensive ability. Next came the Redford game on our own home field. In the best offensive and defensive game of the year, Central rolled over Redford for a 20-0 victory. In this game Soke scored fourteen points on two touchdowns and two successful kicks. He made one of his touch- downs after a 38-yard run. Our right half, McMillan, tallied for the other touchdown. In the Wilbur Wright game, which was the last game of the season, many of our boys did their last service for Central. After trailing Wilbur Wright 6-0 through the first three quarters, Eizelman made a spectacular catch and then ran 25 yards for a touchdown. We kicked the extra point which won the game. So ended one of Centralis flnest if not most successful seasons. So, also, ended the career of many of the boys, among them Al Soke. Al will go down among Centralis immortals although he made only the third All-City Team and received honorable mention for All-State. Out of Centralis 61 points, Soke scored 48, which included seven touchdowns and six kicks over the uprights. Central placed third in a season characterized by good sportsmanship, good coaching, good playing, and good spirit by all. One hundred lwenty-three The sodas are on Docll has become a well- known phrase to members of the boys, tennis team because Whenever the team Wins any championships, Coach llDoc Sanford treats the whole team to sodas. These championships have been very frequent; so have the sodas. Since its beginning, Centralis tennis team has provided the city and state with many of its finest players. The Reindel brothers, Irving Bloomenfleld, and Gerald Schaflander have all been members of our team and are now well known in state tennis Circles. Coach Sanford has never seemed to lack material for consist- ently winning teams. Irving Levine of this years team seems to be another player headed for high tennis honors. He has been on the squad three years, Winning two city high school tennis championships. In the fall of 1937, teamed with Morry Bosenbaum, he was 00- Winner of the doubles title, and last fall Irving F irsl RoweGoldberg, lVeisman, Roth, Ackerman. and Bob Weisman teamed to Win again. Wilmont Sanford, known to most of the school as llDocll, takes pride in the fact that his teams since June, 1927, have held city titles consistently. Sanford also has some honors for himself this year, as he is one of the several coaches Who instigated the new tennis schedule of seven-man team championships in the spring, individual doubles in the fall, and a new scoring system. Last fall the team swept all their matches except one, and their spring prospects are excel- lent. Three veterans are returning,T0m Jipson, Arnold Goldberg, and Levine, along With Yale Upfall, Harold Frank, Bay Bernstein and Tom Kelly, who are promising newscomers. Our chances for the city team Championship are good, and Centralls netters should end near the top in the singles competition Which follows soon after. Second RoweUpfall, .lipson, Gerson, Frank.

Since last yearis team did such a good job, this yearls team has a reputation to uphold. Last year Central played in the City Finals but lost to Denby after a close game. This year the boys have won every practice game they have played except the Northeastern game, Which was a tie at two runs. The reason for this excellent record was the cooperation and experience of the boys. Besides the three veterans, Harris, Collins, and Clark, all of whom had played for some years in the Federation, there are also two of their old teammates, Mackey and Faudem, 0n the team. These five boys have played to- gether for so long that their playing approaches perfection. Collins won a prize for being the uStrike-out King in Class E two years ago. We have a crack infleld with Mackey playing first, Harry Harris and Mundy alternating at second, Hertzberg at. third, and Sheldon Harris at short. Benner and Clark alternate at catching. Our outfielders are Bale, Saginaw, Faudem, Faginson, and Feinberg. Our two most promising pitchers are Collins and Larsen. We all hope that our boys will not only win the following games but the City Champion- ship as well, Mr. Madonna.

During the past few seasons the boys who have participated reached new heights with Mr. Kelley directing the way. Since Jack Bou- man, this years captain, was unable to enter competition because of an injured knee, Bernhard Paldan, our teams high scorer, took his place. The going is plenty rough in this sport, as the meets are run off in Rouge Park over creeks, ditches, logs, and other obstacles. All the schools in the city are represented in each race, and Central this year split the bill by winning two meets and losing two meets. Better luck next time. Mr. Kelley. t: Because of the lack of material, Central made a very poor showing in the Annual Fall Golf Tournament at the North Hills Golf Course on October 4, by placing a meager fourteenth. Redford, who placed first with a score of 314, was closely followed by Highland Park. The team was led by Captain Bob McLellan, Who produced the teast lowest score, a 92. The total score of the whole squad was 414, which proves the fact that we are in the need of new material. However, we are sure that Don Longyear, Sam Moon, and J ohn Hartman, who made up this years team, gave their best for Central and we hope that, under the con- tinued coaching of Mr. Rogers, they will have a more successful season next fall.

Why, thatis the start of the basketball season and on that day all the hopefuls, new and 01d, went to the Gym for the first practice. Looking the boys over, Coach Draper saw three familiar faces; Bob Collins, Bob Roshirt, and Roy Clark were back. Collins and Boshirt were made co-captains, and the team was built around them. Central versus Cooley; what a game! A team couldn,t have made a better start. Central won by one point, with the score 24-23, in one of the fastest and most exciting games this school ever played. Roshirt, the high man, scored 6 points and was closely followed by Weinman, who played a wonderful game. The second game was a disappointment to the Central fans. After building up a good lead in the first half they saw their efforts One hundred twenty-eight Third Roweliabinowitz, Leekie, Congdon, Pickard, smashed in a brilliant last-quarter rally by Western. The score was 15-14. Backed by a win and a lose, the Trailblazers faced CentralTs traditional enemy, North- western. Kutzen, playing forward, scored 9 points in the first half. The score was 9-9 as the teams went into the second half, and it was then that Northwestern showed her real strength and began to pull ahead. Our boys put up a terrific struggle and need never be ashamed of losing that Northwestern game because the Central students are proud of them. The score was 26-23, and Kutzen was high scorer with 13 points. In the next game Central again evened the seasonts score by beating Chadsey. We won in the last quarter when Collins and Harris staged a two-man rally, each scoring 5 points which made the score 23-21. The next games were a disappointment. Cass won, 21-17, and Southwestern, 20-17. Then came the upset. U. of D. High, with one of the cityis strongest teams and finest records, came into Centralis gym like a wolf Only to go out like a lamb. The ,Blazers, in their best game, came out victors with the score 20-17. With new Vigor gained by the victory, Central consecutively beat Wilbur Wright and Redford t0 iinish the season. If you judge the possi- bilities 0f the next years basketball team by this years Reserves, the Gen- tral Trailblazers will have w one of its best seasons since 1937. This year the He- serves won ten straight games. Such a record is Adding up scores, we find that the ,Blazers won five games but lost four in league compe- tition and won three and lost one in non-league competition. The individual scoring totals show Roshirt to be the teams highest scorer with 33 points.' He is closely followed by Collins and Harris with 30 each, and Lieber- man with 29. Kutzen scored 19 and Clark 11. The seasonis total score was Central 194, Opponents 183. s , x i almost unheard of in basketball circles. They promise to do even better next year. In the All-City finals, Miller High School won the championship by the close score of 24-22, after a terrific battle. Evans was high scorer with fifty-nin'e points to his credit and was followed by Harris and Wallace with 57 and 56 points respectively.

One hundred twenty-nine Man or Mouth.D You think the Cheerleaders look funny from the stands.D You should see yourself some- times in the midst of a lusty yell for our boys. Looking into the mass of humanity before us, we see nothing but a gaudy array of colors and hundreds of gaping jaws. In fact we look down in the mouth. But we cheerleaders are a hardy lot, and usually get used to the verbal barrage and epithets hurled at us from the student body. Marwin Schlossberg was captain of the cheer- leaders from the fall of 1936 to the time of his graduation in 1939. He was taken in hand by Centralls old cheerleader, little J aokie Ingeroff, and taught the tricks of the trade. His next job was teaching the recruits as much as he could in the way of yelling and rhythmic gesticulating, just so Centralites know what to yellewhen. Cheerleading isnt as easy as it seems from the spectators viewpoint. It would be folly, for instance, to start an ilOur team is red hotl, when the team is twenty points behind. Cor- rect choice of yells is essential for success. The cheerleaderis mental attitude must always be one of optimism; he must always be able to see the bright side of defeat. T0 yell when our team is losing is harder than it appears. He must have gracehwell, at least a little bit. Most important is rhythm, for that is the basic element of any yell. A person without rhythm couldnlt possibly be a cheerleader. Manuel Solomon, Marwin Schlossberg, and Gerry Blumenthal embody all the essentials of the ideal cheerleader and are three of the best cheerleaders ever to do a ltBig C-Ell before dear old Centralis rooters. In closing may we say, liYou bring the table .weill give three chairs.n OYSTERS OYSTERS OYSTERS RAW! RAW! RAW I Iim Like a Fish Out of Water Since graduation took a drastic toll from last years swimming squad, Coach Donald S. Kelley gloomily expressed the prediction at the beginning of the season that the outlook was very, very dark. Among the few veterans who returned were Dave Levy, free style; Douglas Rice, breast stroke; Teddy Pines, back stroke; and Morris Perlman, diver; However versatile these tanksters were, they formed but a small nucleus around which a team could be built, and consequently the teams chances for a city championship this year were greatly hampered. The season was not one of the best the school has experienced, Central dropping four meets, and winning only the meet with Southwestern. One hundred th irly The score was 60-24. In the City Finals, held at Northwestern, Dave Levy placed fourth in the individual Medley. The Relay Team, which was composed of Levy, Pines, and Mason, placed a good third. Next year Coach Kelley expects a much better showing from the boys. He says that among the 10th graders there is much varsity material.

The Track team began its practice in the first part of December and at that time drew very little notice because, although our cham- pionship relay team was back, no one expected much of a season. However, as things turned out, Central finished the season even, having beaten Western and Southwestern and lost to Bedford and Northwestern. Don Benish was high point man and several times took first place in the high jump and pole vault. In the Northwestern meet, Centralls relay team un- officially broke the cityls half-rnile record. Un- expectedly good form was also shown by A1 Soke and Nate Katz in the shot put. Then came the biggest event of all, the City meet, in which Central placed fourth, missing third by only a few points. Cooley won the meet by a big margin and Southwestern placed second. The relay team was composed of Myers, Grant, Whetter, and Woughter, a newcomer who was taking the place of the injured Weiler. These boys came through with flying colors and for the second consecutive year took the championship. In addition to winning the championship they also tied the City record of 1.36:1, which was made by Northwestern in 1931. Bob Grant placed first in the 220 and is now officially the City champion 220 man. Roy Meyers, also in the 220, captured fourth place. Ronald Whetter, the captain of the team, placed second in the 440. It was the first time this season he had been beaten, and he blamed it on a bad start. The Centralite wishes to congratulate the boys of the Track team for their fine work, and to give the next team the best wishes for an even more successful season next year.

Not the tobacco crop, not the potato crop, not the riding crop teouldnlt let that opportunity go by but the feminine athletic crop of the school. These girls are well known as the most out- standing athletes in school. The girls work, with Miss Clara Kissell as the sponsor, to promote interest in girls sports. They also promote the internal revenue by the sale of those famous llCli pins which identify us as loyal Centralites. The board represents all girls in Central, who, in their gym classes, elect the officers from the list of nominees offered to the students every year. But the officers arenit the only members of the board, for in just as good standing are the captains of the various varsity teams, one representative from each study hall, an art representative, and a Central Student representative. These girls are chosen for outstanding talent in their respective fields as well as their interest in sports. The highlight of each termls activities is the party Which the board gives to acquaint the tenth graders with the upper-classmen. This is One hundred lhirty-four not one of the ordinary kind of parties which flourish freely everyhere, but a sports party. At this affair the girls make a stab at, perhaps shine in, but certainly have a grand and glorious time in, every variety of game that can be played in some corner of our roomy gym. These parties offer an easy, informal means of getting acquainted, and are famous the school over for the good times tas well as the refereshments they provided They are looked forward to every term with great anticipation by all the girls in Central. Since these parties have been so successful, the girls have attempted with the cooperation of the TC, Club to include the boys in another sports party which would be an annual event. Such parties have been proved very successful in former years and we are expecting to have more of the boy and girl sports parties in the future.

Miss Baumer, Who has now been transferred to Redford High, did a grand job with the material that was Wished upon her. In many of our contests there were two or more games played; and, confidentially, we did succeed in winning a few. Our system is to play as many different schools as possible and to Win 6f possible; We have a great advantage in our grass fields, because they are attractive to our Opposing teams, and this saves us a lot of ten-cent and six-cent fares, transfers, etc. We accepted our victories gratefully, and, I might say, took our losses heroically. This was probably due to the spirit and courage instilled in us by Our capable Captain Craig. I here refer to Mary Jane Craig Gan. t39y, Who did a swell job of icaptainingi, in spite of a siege of whooping cough.

The team as a Whole has been much better this season than it has in the past. The most outstanding display of team work was shown in the passing. It is indeed unfortunate for the team that many of the star players are about to graduate. Next season the team Will have to depend on new and, as yet, untried talent.
