QB CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL. COLUMBUS, OHIO JUNE, I926 PUBLISHED BY THE CLASSES IN JOURNALISM ART VVORK BY THE ART DEPARTMENT xi 4' ' I F OREWORD Do you wonder why the Annual has been named Cokato? Close your eyes and picture in your mind a river bordered by fields of corn cultivated by lndians living in wigwams that can be seen on both sides of the river. This, in the middle of the eighteenth century, is a true picture of the appearance of the tract of land now occupied by Central. As the Indians were the first to live where our beautiful school now stands, C6k2i't6, an lndian word meaning, in the center, has been chosen as an appropriate name for our year- book, because not only is Central located in the place where the Redskins lived, but it is also in the center of Franklinton, the first white settlement, and in the center of our own proposed Civic Center. The history of the Indian tribes in this part of the country dates from about the middle of the eighteenth century, according to an account in the History of Franklin County, by S. A. Vesey. When the first settlers arrived, the lndians were numerous, but friendly. The Wyandots had an encampment on the ground now occupied by Central and another where the Penitentiary now stands. During the years of the early settlement of white people along the Scioto, meaning Deer River, the Indians were accustomed to roam through the country and some of them lived among, or in close proximity to the whites. The inhabitants of Franklinton and of the other settlements in this part of Ohio were in a state of feverish anxiety and in constant dread lest the red men should open hostilities. But great was the feeling of relief when, on June Zl, l8l 3, the Indians agreed to observe a permanent peace, which they faithfully adhered to. On the spot where our numerous clubs now meet, the Indians held their pow-wows before the heap big chief and indulged in their fantastic war dances around the blazing camp fires. For over a hundred years, steady progress has been made until now, Central, our beautiful school located on the bank of the Scioto, has trans- planted the once popular wigwams of our Tillakums, ffriendsl the lndians. ig sxgiiliigijj,15:32-graeif-iili f:1gQig.,i'fQ,,, .j W ,ggi ' 5 ?- st :Jiri .ii is 'C ' i eg ,cj 2 l5 i U 4l Contents OCtlg T F h Arhr af ,4 Dear ld ' H' h . ..,. ,, 7 Faculty ..,, A.,......A. ., .,, .... . . 8 he d r S h IR ' d..

A tree planting also was a novel part of the morning's entertainment. At eight o'cIock, to the strains of America the Beautiful, the Senior Class marched in a processional to the campus where the tree planting cere- mony and the oration by Worthy Gee took place. At half past eight, there was a recessioraal to the cafeteria. The class sang Prayer of Thanksgiving just before the breakfast was served. Following the breakfast, the class adjourned to Room I where the fol- lowing program was given: Music, America g PresicIent's Address, Meryl Miller: Class Grumble, Ruth McMiIlin and Yorke Wolfe: Reading, Leola Caseg Song, I Hear America Singingng Class Prophecy, Frances Barnhart and I-Iarold I'Iicksg Presentation of Memorial, Paul Schaefer: Response, W.

U15 5 i SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Ei: qrtgg DREADFUL heart-breaking calamity burst upon old Commerce ff High in '23 when two hundred and fifty green shrieking young- I, sters were turned loose in the labyrinth-like halls. uwho knows ,ff to what great heights we shall climb! cried the two hundred and fifty, dashing madly up the winding stairs to the third floor. Ah, who knows? These gay confident little freshmen entertained old Commerce High with their childish pranks but soon an ambition, or the ever-present instinct to start something, grew among the girls. The outlet of their mental emotions grew into the form of a club and it was called Cllionianl The boys frowned: they glowered, became envious, jealous, but to no avail. They were excluded. But on strode the two hundred and fifty. So well did they complete their tenth grade work that Santa Claus gave them a beautiful new building on the river bank. They entered it two hundred and twenty-five strong-as Juniors. On and on strode the two hundred and twenty-five! And then it was that Anna O'Neil won for her class a great honor. She was proclaimed City Champion orator in l925. Then on strode the two hundred and twenty-live! Not a glance to the left of them, nor to the right of them, for now they were-Seniors! ln i926 Florence Stimson won the city' oratorical contest and the Senior Class grew proud. But she was accustomed to honors for she had previously been elected editor-in-chief of the Cokato . Triumphs indeed! And in that class also was a girl, Hilda Easton, who although elected editor-in-chief of Central Outlook could qualify only by right of her ever- flowing stream of conversation. Alas! nothing could stop her. Two silver tongued orators and one Babbling Bess are quite enough for one Senior Class, ruefully said the other Seniors who were never given a chance to speak words of wisdom, or otherwise. As is the case in all Senior classes, this one possessed pupils with musical talent. Elsie Burke and Marcella Hartman, vocalists, shared warbling honors with Ruth McMillin, who was an accompanist much in demand. Girls again peeved the boys by walking off with scholarship honors. Ella Birkefeld and Frances Barnhart gained full membership in Sigma Kappa Psi. Then the voice of justice was heard for the Seniors chose two boys as class officers, but they had to fall back on girls for the other offices. Meryl Miller was elected presidentg Frances Barnhart, vice-president: Anna O'Neil, secretary: and Paul Schaefer, treasurer. On and on rode the two hundred winning fresh laurels. Mary Powell was chosen as Student Council president and Ruth lVlclVlillin secretary-treas- urer. 39 . 4. 3 . And as the journey of the gallant two hundred neared its dramatic finish, came the operetta and the class play! A Senior, Mary Powell, sang the mezzo soprano solo part in the operetta. Since the Seniors are famous fever since '23J for their glibness of tongue it was no great surprise when great actresses and actors came into the lime- light at the try-out for the class play. The class bubbled over with joy at the dramatic talent displayed by Meryl Miller, Verna Thomas, Elsie Hoover, Cora Applegate, Yorke Wolfe, Louise Ruegg, George Weber, john Neff, Bernard Browne, Isobel Fanker, Hazel LeRoy and Ruth McMillin who made the class play a great and lasting success. Flushed with the success of their victorious Senior year, the gallant two hundred on April 23 gave a Senior-Junior that was a riot. On strode the two hundred into the unknown. For having completed their perilous journey through the forest of education, they have come at last to a clearing-a clearing that holds joy or sorrow, failure or success for all of them. lnto the valley of the future charge the one hundred and ninety-five. Forward l A SENIOR- JUNIOR OVEL decorations in the form of myriads of many colored balloons transformed the gyms into a gay hall which echoed with laughter of the Senior and junior Classes as they joined in the merry making at the annual Senior-junior reception held at Centrail High School e 'f ' , x -W i - f on Friday ,April 23. Shadowgraphs depicting the poems Young Lochinvarn and My Grand- mother's Minuet and the song Comin' Thru the Rye preceded the dancing. Young Lochinvar was played by Paul Schaefer, the bride, Evelyn Yausg the bridegroom, Tom Bostg the father, john Neff, ladies in waiting, Genevieve Milner and Haiel LeRoy. The poem was read by Sylvia South. Harold Hicks and Hazel LeRoy were cast in Comin' Thru the Rye which was sung by Mary Powell. My Grandmothefs Minuetn, readl by Evelyn Yaus, was danced by Sybil Dally and Dorothy lmmel. Lucile Ward was accompanist. The committees who were responsible for the success of this reception, under the leadership of Miss M.

JUNIOR-SENIOR RECEPTION .- 4 3-3 APANESE lanterns of beautiful combinations of color and design 'gi' formed the elaborate decorations at the second annual Junior- , Senior reception held Friday, May 28, in the Central gym. 57 93- Entertainment for the evening was provided by members of the Central Commercial Club, under the direction of Mrs. M. F. Palmer. A clever play entitled A Saturday Morning in an Office was en- acted by the following girls: Emma Marvin, Irene Elliot, Lois Noell, Nellie Sins, Elizabeth Phillip, Kathryn Stocklin, Lenore Hansen, Hazel Theado, Roma Hudson, and Estelle Smith. The committees that assisted were as follows: Decorations, Mrs. Norma E.

Great credit is due Miss Edith Bell, general chairman, and the commit- tees who were responsible for the success of the event. 45 icvfifb 4' Z?-. - i A SUPER CLASS! 1 'Q ITH the aid! of a few statistics, it can safely be predicted that the K' ll I Class of '27 will be the strongest, heartiest, and the most brilliant l 5 .,Q .xx class ever to graduate from Central High School. Here is how S wr I we arrive at this conclusion: Walking and running develop the muscles of the body and stimulate mental development. When the Class of '27, or the present junior class, graduates, it will be the first class to have had three full and complete years at this school. This means three years of walking from class to class and from floor to floor in our large build- ing. Since it has been estimated that a pupil walks five miles a day in the course of his studies, and since there are approximately 600 school days in three years, this means that each and every member of the Class of '27 will have walked 3000 miles by graduating time. Therefore this proves that our prediction for a wonder class is well-grounded! just as an example of what walking and running will do fthe running is done at the beginning of each lunch periodj we mention a few of our super- developed athletes who hold offices in the junior class, such as Dud Stock, presiclentg i'Bob Tittel, vice-president of the class, and also vice-president of the Student Council, being the only Junior to hold an office in that body: and Bob Stock, treasurer of the class and renowned brother of Dud . lt was thought that someone who was more developed mentally than physically should be secretary of the class, so Jane Renick was elected. It is said that the above mentioned athletes have a basketful of hard- earned letter C's and are noted for their wondrous feats of strength and endurance, which are due, of course, to walking and running. Before we forget a most important fact, let us mention that this Junior Class has already distinguished itself by being the largest class C241 in alll in the history of Central High School. Because this class is so much more developed than any previous class, it had to have a stronger class pin, so it adopted a specially constructed stand- ard pin and ring. This pin was found necessary because after tests were made of other pins it was decided they would not do because they snapped off when a Junior expanded his chest. The Class of '27 has the distinction, too, of being the first class in Central to adopt a standard pin and ring. All of this talk of strength and ability is not applesauce, as one inclined to slang might express it, for is it not true that juniors comprise practically two-thirds of the school teams? And is it not true that Juniors are foremost in the school activities? Everyone must confess that without the willing aid of this group of husky youngsters the school productions and enterprises 'would be failures. I 46 . N5 if .I-.. -. 5 Naturally the opening of the athletic field, including bleachers, diamond, gridiron, track, and tennis courts, has been postponed until the Class of '27 are Seniors. Undoubtedly, the Board of Education upon seeing this remark- able class, expressly delayed contracts to preserve the athletic field for our use. At any rate, when we'wake up in September, l926, and find ourselves Seniors, we shall have the honor of being the Hrst Senior Class to enjoy the field. To have well developed muscles sometimes means to be muscle-bound from the neck up, but still, as we said before, this class is an exception. Those who won the Kappa honor in the Sigma Kappa Psi, Eleanor Ciilgenback, Cecelia Krakoff, Nileta Kramer, William Papier and Celia Tachauer, frankly acknowledge that walking and running were prime factors in their success. ln conclusion we ask the reader not to be surprised when he reads in later years that members of Central's Class of '27 are champion boxers, wrestlers, strong men, senators, governors, and presidents! Walking is truly a wonderful thing fwhen you have a machinel. A REMEMBER Remember the night of the Carnival gay, When minstrels and charmers held full sway? Remember the gypsy, a peculiar creature, Yet a friend of the maiden who would know her future. 'Twas a cold, bleak night in December, Yet you shivered and laughed, Remember? Remember the take-offs and skits galore, And the hard-hearted teachers how humorous they were? Remember the circus, and the peanuts you ate, And the presents you gave to the fish for bait. Yes, it happened in the month of December, On the night of the 4th and 5th, Remember? THE STORM Annual Locker Cleaning Day Fills the janitors with dismay, Papers and books upon the floor Listen to the janitors roar! 47 SOPHOMORE CLASS Kavfzii If 'S , , . iv SOPI-IOMORE CLASS HISTORY ,Sgt we live to be a hundred, shall we forget it? No, the memory of F 7 that first clay at Central when we sat in the auditorium for what I dj Q seemed hours waiting for all the schedules to be straightened out will never die. From that day we have been pushed to the back- ground by the overruling juniors and the domineering Seniors just because we are Freshmen. W'e shall be very glad when we are Seniors because perhaps then we may be given seats far enough toward the front of the auditorium so that we shall be able to hear at least every sixteenth word the speaker says. It may be that they're used to it, but we will say that the juniors and Seniors are able to stand the noise in the auditorium study better than we who really want to work every minute. Our first impression of Central's teachers was that they were very in- considerate when they made out our schedules because we had to take so much extra exercise running from one part of the building to the other between classes and' make it in two minutes. We hope for better schedules next year. Despite all our misfortunes, we are rapidly making a name for ourselves. ln athletics Russell Steinbrook won a prize for being the best all around ath- lete in the State. Sybil Dally, one of our number, was chosen to be May Queen in our recent operetta. Four of our class have earned' the Hrst letter, Sigma, in Sigma Kappa Psi, Central's honor societyg namely, Anna Goldberg, Catherine Reeb, Margaret Sullivant and lda Schlansky. On picture taking day when we were put at the top of the grandstand, the Juniors and Seniors laughed and said we were so light-headed because we were having our first pictures at Central taken, that the photographer put us at the top. But we were glad to be up there because our faces can at least be seen in the big picture and that is something that many of the Juniors and Seniors cannot say. Much has been said about Central's going over the thousand mark in enrollment, but how many have realized to whom it was due? To the Class of '28, four hundred and fifty strong, belongs all the credit for this record breaker at Central, for we furnished nearly half of the required quota. Taken as a whole, we feel that we have a record this year of which we may well be proud. 49 M fb.. SOPHOIVIORE MOTHER GOOSE WATCH YOUR STEP lVlr.

Established in I922 at the High School of Commerce, it now boasts a membership of 53. The faculty committee consists of Arthur R. Leonard, chairman, Miss Valerie A. Martin and Miss Myra Neunherz. This society was organized for the purpose of encouraging high standards of scholarship among the pupils by giving public recognition to those who have attained the required standard. The society adopted for its motto: 'Wisdom the Guide of Life. Preceding the awarding of full membership for completion of the tenth, eleventh and l2B work with E grades in two-thirds of the work and not more than three F grades, Sigma and Kappa honors are given. The Sigma certificate is awarded for completion of the tenth year work with one-half E grades and not more than two F grades. Completion of the eleventh year work with two-thirds E grades and not more than one F grade entitles a pupil to the Kappa award. This year Frances Barnhart and Ella Birkefeld of this yearis class, and Jennie Balogh, William Klein, and Mary Ulrey, who graduated last year, re- ceived full membership in the society. 52 .. .JS 5. . 1 I . . . P w v STUDENT COUNCIL 5 Dani E Student Council was organized by the pupils at Central in 1925 5:-Q' for the purpose of promoting co-operation among teachers and pupils. Under the direction of Miss Maude Mcl-lenry and Vance is-,,-4155 Smith, it has become an invaluable part of the school. Thirty-one students, one from each registration room, are elected by the pupils to represent them on the Council. The editor-in-chief of the Outlook, president of the Senior Class, captain of Sports and two stu- dents at large, chosen by the teachers, are honorary members. One of the most important accomplishments of the Council this year was the speeding up of traffic between classes. A plan was devised whereby pupils going up should use the stairs to the right, while those coming down should use the stairs to the left. This eliminated much tardininess. Credit belongs to this organization for the absence of loitering in halls and the efficient way in which the Council makes it possible for pupils to re- cover lost articles or exchange books. They have also contributed to the success of all the entertainments given by the school by volunteering their services as ushers and by selling tickets. All in all, the Council has lived up to the expectations of the faculty and student body and has fully earned the important. place it holds in the school's activities. 53 l ff GIRL RESERVES Girl Reserves, organized in l9l9, has constantly grown in member- ship until the enrollment now totals l I5. The purpose of the club is, To create a spirit of friendliness among the members, to promote high standards of scholarship and conduct, and to give service at all times. All of the phases in the purpose have been carried out as far as possible during the course of the year. The outstanding service work accomplished during the year is the help extended to needy families at Thanksgiving, the giving of a Christmas pro- gram for the whole school, the gift of an electric grill to the school for use in the clinic and the decorating of the auditorium for basketball games. The Central girls displayed their ability to sing when they won the loving cup awarded to the club that had the best song at the Song Festival in De- cember. Marguerite Neunherz wrote the words of the song to the tune of America the Beautiful. Foremost among the girls' social events of the year have been a Chinese Halloweien Party, an lnter-club Dad and Daughter Banquet which was held in January, a Spring Luncheon and an Easter Vesper. Miss M. Edith Bell, vice principal, is an honorary member of the Cen- tral Girl Reserves. The officers of the club are as follows: hloyce Slupe, presidentg Grayce Slupe, vice-president, Helen Nunery, secretary: and Louise Seltzer, treasurer. Miss Valerie Martin is the faculty adviser. 54 .55 ,h,, ... 5 . M7 yi' rfrb. rr HI-Y OFFICERS President .........,., ,.................,...,.. P aul W. Schaefer Vice-President ,...... .,,,,..

The purpose of the Hi-Y is to create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. Its four C's are: Clean Speech, Clean Scholarship, Clean Sports and Clean Living. The members meet each Tuesday evening at the Central Y. lVl. C. A. At each meeting a short devotional service is conducted by one of the high schools after which a prominent business man addresses the boys on subjects of vital interest to every young man. On April l4, the Hi-Y, for the second time, ran the city . Ninety boys occupied as many important City Offices. - 55 all 4? Q . 4.. - . ' . LES BEAUX ARTS As the climax to the club-forming epidemic at Central, Les Beaux Arts, literary society for girls, was organized February l926. Mrs. Ophelia B. Serage, was made faculty adviser. Officers of the club are: Anna O'Neil, presidentg Norma Tuclcerman, vice- presidentg Katherine Leonard, secretary: and Florence Stimson, treasurer. The society was organized for the following purposes: to learn to apprec- iate all that has contributed to the culture of the worlclg to study the lives and works of great creators of literature, art, and music: to foster high ideals in personal conductg to help maintain a high standard of spoken English in the schoolg to strive for high scholarship. ln order to become a member of the club, a girl must maintain a standard of C or over in English. Fifty-six girls are at present members of the organi- zation. Meetings are held the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month, a prepared program being given once a month. Although the club is a new one, it has been very successful for the in- terest of the girls in the various educational and entertaining programs, given by its members, has been great. The club also aims to have some dis- tinguished speaker address its members during the semester. 56 F BOYS' COUNCIL President ........... ..... K enneth Kidwell Vice-President ....., ........... P aul Schaefer Secretary ............ ..... R aymond Racluege Treasurer .................................................. Yorke Wolfe Central's oldest organization, Boys' Council, has successfully completed one score of active years. lt was founded twenty years ago by C. Nl. Book- man, for the purpose of training boys in public and extemporaneous speaking, as well as in the art of debating skillfully, intelligently and correctly on cur- rent topics. ln l9l 7 A. R. Leonard became mayor of Boys' Council. He brought Council through nine years successfully, relinquishing the helm to Vernon Zeig in 1924. in the biggest event of the year, the Senior-Junior debate, an annual affair, which was held Friday, Nlay I4, Worthy Gee, Paul Schaefer, Merle Truttier and Kenneth Kidwell, seniors, on the negative side, were unanimously named as victors over James Tallman, Fred Duerler, Louis Thall and Jack Swegles, juniors. on the affirmative side, in a debate on the question of Re- solved: That Congress should modify the Jap Exclusion Act of l924. The judges were Guy Kesler, lVliss Alice Stein and Miss Nellie Whitaker. Boys' Council adds greatly to a boy's training because a member of ne- cessity must keep himself well informed on current topics, thus broadening his views and enabling him to see both sides of a given question. Undoubtedly Boys' Council will live, not two score, but the proverbial three score and ten years before the old fashioned art of debating becomes extinct. 57 ,f 4 A V ' . . T I CICO Cico, Central's public speaking club, was organized last fall for the pur- pose of enabling pupils to learn the art of public speaking. The training of this club, which is under the supervision of Vernon Zieg, has been valuable in aiding pupils entered in oratorical contests. Central has already produced two prize winners, Anna O'Neil, city ora- torical champion of '25, and Florence Stimson, champion of '26. Programs are presented every other week and on several occasions the entire school was invited. ' The name Cico stands for Cicero, who was one of the greatest Roman orators. Officers of the club are Anna O'Neil, presidentg Hilda Easton, vice- president, Florence Stimson, secretary, and Paul Schaefer, treasurer.

It was later continued when Central moved to its new location in l924. Meetings are he-ld at seven o'clock the third Wednesday of each month when interesting plays are presented by members of the organization. These plays serve a two-fold purpose. Not only do they provide entertainment for the pupils but they also enable Miss Mary E.. Taylor, the faculty director, to uncover talent for more important occasions. Also, they materially de- crease the amount of stage fright which always attacks one at his first public appearance. The officers are: Cora Applegate, presidentg Dorothy l-layman, vice- presidentg Elva Applegate, secretaryg and Hilda Benjamin, treasurer. 60 I 5 X .Ii.. --' F l ,I i... EUTERPEAN Euterpean, the music club of Central, was organized in l925 by Miss Bertha Schilffarth, director of music. At the meetings held the last Thursday of each month, leading musicians of the city are heard. Approximately one hundred and fifty pupils were members of the club when it was first organized with Anna O'Neil as president: Dama McVey, vice-presidentg Dorothy Watson, secretary: Bessie Swentzel, treasurer, and Hilda Easton, reporter. This semester the two hundred members elected to office, Anna O'Neil, president: Dama Mcvey, vice-president: Delores McMillin, secretaryg Mar- garet Hegenberger, treasurer, and Hilda Easton, reporter. The purpose of Euterpean is, as is stated in the Constitution, to place before the students of Central High, the highest type of music obtainable by presenting in concerts the best musicians of the city. Some of the musicians who have been heard by the pupils are: Mrs. Marie Hertenstein Waller, Miss Alma Borneman, Earl Hughes, Miss Frances Beall, Mrs. Edith Perkins Conkright, Miss Bertha Albaugh, Miss Charlotte Vallance, Miss janet Gibbs, Miss Rosalind Morrison, l. Read and Mrs. Louis Miller Yost. 6I x Xi' X x C., . ANS K 7 x J , .1 X- Yi '- fX X LJ . X, 'X .ff 4 , 'J . . J . . . , r ' X Q l NT L GIRLS' C-LEE. CLUB The aim of this organization, with a membership of twenty-four, is to develop the most talented of the singers and to provide entertainment for the school. ln January and May, voices are tried out. Among the public appearances, the Spring Festival, consisting of May the Maiden and The Dawn of Spring, given April 8, was the chief accom- plishment of the Girls' Glee Club this year. January 8, the first annual concert at Central was given. Elsie Burke featured in the cantata, The Lady of Shalottf' while Marcella Hartman dis- played her talent by singing several solos. One of the most important events in the social season at Central was the Carnival. A very delightful stunt was furnished by the Glee Club. 62 .. M55 .l-.- - if BOYS' GLEQE CLUB The Boys' Glee Club meets under the direction of john O. Rosser on Monday and Wednesday the fourth period. Twenty-three boys are members this semester. The membership of the club is not large because of tryouts held at the beginning of each semester which eliminate all boys that are unable to come up to the standard. The club has appeared before an audience on only one occasion this year which was at the concert held in the school auditorium on January 8. james Hays, William Thuma, Donald' Martin, and William Hamilton. members of the club, have formed a Boys' Quartette, though they have had no opportunity to appear before the school as yet. Ruth NlclVlillin is the ac- companist. 63 7 ff.. . . ' J ORCHESTRA When the Central High Orchestra was organized in October, l924, its twenty members rehearsed once a week but now the membership has swelled' to fifty-three musicians and rehearsals are held two double periods a week. At first the 'harmoniousu chords emanating from the orchestra were just a wee bit squeaky but under the guidance of John O. Rosser, something more like real music soon inspired these youthful musicians. Then it was that they began to make themselves known. Their popularity increased until the peak of their ambitions was reached and they were asked to broadcast from radio station WAIU at the Deshler Hotel Studio. The Chamber of Commerce engaged-the orchestra for their forum at the Chittenden Hotel. They also played at the Elks' Club for the P. T. A. anni- versary celebration. The orchestra did its share at the Concert in February, the Spring Fes- tival, Oratorical Contest, the Class Play and played at several meetings of all the teachers in the city. 64 5 fn. . ' I . - - g , . P SENATUS POPULUSQUE ROMANUS Senatus Populusque Romanus, the Latin club, organized by Miss Etheyl Brown, February 3, l926, with a membership of thirty-five, was formed to arouse more interest in the various Latin classes, and to get more students interested in the language. The principal aim of the club is to instill in the members a better appreciation of Roman life and literature. An unusual constitution has been drawn up, the club being organized on the plan of the Roman Republic and divided into the classes of Roman Cit- izens: Senatores, Equites and Flebs. The most honored official is Ponti- fex Maximus. The person having the highest executive power is the Dictator. The two Consuls alternate in presiding at meetings. The first program enacted by the members consisted of a dramatization of the Catilinian Conspiracy which was given in Latin. A second program consisted of clippings from a Roman newspaper which contained items of interest on the social, educational, religious and political life of the Roman Republic. The last meeting of the club featured a short Roman play and a social hour. The presiding officers of the club are: Dictator, Rolland Uncapher: Fontifex Maximus, Beatrice .Ierman and Consuls, Vashti Montgomery and Katherine Leonard. 65 .fi 1 1 i l , - x EL CIRCULO CASTELLANO El Circulo Castellano was organized this year at Central, and is under the supervision of Madame Beall. The club meets every third Friday of the month in room l08. This Spanish Club was organized for the purpose of making language work more interesting. lts aim is to be instructive as well as entertaining and to form an incentive to a further study of the language. The programs consist of short plays given in Spanish and the study of noted Spanish people. Spanish art and literature also play an important part in the programs. Those who take Spanish and those who have taken it and are still inter- ested may become members. The first officers are: Ben Thall, president: Robert Long, vice-presidentg and -Iustina Lewis, secretary-treasurer.The members, who total twenty-seven, have chosen a pin shaped like the coat of arms of Chile with two C's in the center, the initials of the name of the club. 66 .. ..5 7. I I . . . lv l SCIENCE CLUB The Science Club was organized February 26, l926. At the first meet- ing the following pupils were elected? officers: Bruce Dollison, president: jane Renick, vice-president: Robert Stock, secretaryg Thomas Creed, treasurer. At the meeting held March 26, the constitution was read and adopted, and all the charter members signed it. The programs consist of lectures, demonstrations, programs for school assemblies, exhibitions and exercises. The purpose and aim of the club is to create a spirit that will increase the interest of its members in all science. There are now fifty-three members in the club, which meets in room 2, the fourth period, the fourth Friday of each month. Miss Verna M. Bradford is the adviser. 67 .' 4 ' r in i 1 EUCLIDEAN Euclidean, the first mathematics club to be formed at Central, was organ- ized in December, l925, under the direction of Vance Nl. Smith for the pur- pose of creating more interest in mathematics and of bringing the pupils and teachers in closer contact with each other. The club now has a membership of sixteen. The programs given each month are divided into three groups: a dis- cussion of prominent mathematicians, general discussion of mathematics, and a mathematical puzzle. The organization meets the third Wednesday of each month at the ninth period. 68 5 fx '4..c. ' I l SEEYOTA Seeyota, the history club, a comparatively new organization at Central High School, was organized' in December l9Z5, but did not get into full swing until the opening of the spring semester. Miss lVlcHenry is the faculty ad- viser. Ruth Carper is president: Thomas Creed, vice-president: Jane Reniclc, secretaryg Dorothy Hayman, treasurerg and Katherine Leonard, critic. Besides these officers there are three committees, executive, constitut- ional and publicity, which help govern the activity of this club. The meetings are held the second Friday of each month, when a pro- gram based upon some historical event is given. The helpfulness and popularity of this club thus far indicates that Seeyota will be one of the strongest organizations at Central High School. 69 4: .

Its purpose is to help the members to develop initiative and tact, to become more efficient and businesslilce in all undertakings, and to achieve a better understanding of the business world and its associates. 70 .. U57 . ' . . - - 5 l GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATIGN ' After being provided with facilities for gym work equal to those of the boys, a group of Central co-eds, with the co-operation of Miss Margaret Wil- liams, gym instructor, formed their letter association in October, l925. The purpose of this organization is to promote health, physical efficiency, and athletic accomplishments. All girls who have won fifty points in some sport. are eligible for mem- bership in the association. To gain a letter, a girl must win 650 points in sports, including basketball, baseball, volley ball, meets and hiking. The officers are: President, Marguerite Neunherzg Vice-president, Dor- othy Haymang Secretary, Amelia Gruberg and Treasurer, Hilda Benjamin. Besides the officers, there is an executive board, consisting of girls who are elected heads of sports. These girls take care of sport classes, argl with the officers of the C. A. A., authorize new sports and take care ofl other affairs. Several girls are eligible for letters this spring. The girls' letter is an Old English C and the letters G. A. A. combined. 7I . 4. 4 CENTRAL OUTLOOK STAFF First row: Ralph Maxwell, William Weishaupt, Harold Hicks, William Papier.

Third row: Joyce Slupe, Fay Weaver, Crayce Slupe, Doris Cole, Virginia Williams. CENTRAL OUTLOOK Few people realize the work involved in getting out such a publication as Central Outlook which appears bi-weekly and which is edited by the various members of the staff. One of the many problems in publishing such a paper is the business management, an important feature of which is the getting of advertising upon which the paper's income depends to a large extent. The pupils who take journalism are trained to develop a nose for news' and their assignments consist mainly in interviews, writing up assemblies, en- tertainments and other news items about the school. Cokato, Central's annual, is also the product of the journalism classes. Upon its staff, headed by an editor-in-chief, depends the success of the book. Each member is responsible for a certain section although he is assisted by journalism pupils who are given written assignments. The cartoons for the paper and art work in the annual are produced by the Art Department. 72 SPORT .ff J FOOTBALL lgf' f,ffig3ENTRAL'S '25 football season did not result in winning a great '-i'? 4 many gamesg nevertheless it served in no small measure to build up material for a championship eleven in '26. For the initial game of the season the Red and Black gridders invaded Dayton, contested with the strong Dayton Stivers before a crowd of 2000 and, in spite of numerous disadvantages, heldl the Dayton- ians to a 33-3 score. On October 4 Central and East opened the local football Marathon by playing at South High on a slippery field. Central looked good in its first appearance and made more first downs than their opponents, but the Orange and Black received all the breaks and took advantage of them. Bob Stock and Tom Roberts were outstanding in this fray. The Central grid machine on October 9 journeyed to Washington C. H. and were defeated by a 6-0 score. ln this encounter Central made more yardage than did their opponents, the Red and Black gaining 254 yards to the Washington eleven's l98. On a muddy field Central met its fourth defeat of the season when the lucky North High squad? recovered a fumbled punt which resulted in a touch- down and a final score of North l4, Central 0. ' 74 .155 .-.. 1 , P ln another mud fest the Central and West elevens clashed for a scoreless tie. This game was a moral victory for the Riversiders as they had the pig- skin on West's 3 yard line when the whistle blew. October 22 was spent in a practice game with the School for the Deaf eleven which resulted in a score of l8-6 in their favor. Friday, November l3, was a lucky day for Central and the Grandview eleven was trounced at Grandview by a 6-0 score. This game marked the first and only victory of the season for Central. ln this scrap Captain Bob Stock was unable to play because of an infected' tooth and although his valued services were missed, Dud Stock, Perrill, Lama and Tittel stood out well. Determined to down the lrish, the Red and Black performers ventured onto the field of play November 20 to gain this end. Before a crowd of over a thousand, Central set a pace which was hard to beat and had not luck been against them, the defeat of the Irish would have been certain. The game fea- tured some beautiful completed passes and line plunges which enabled the Dragons to collect I3 points to the Riversiders' 7. ln the last game of the season with South, Central was blanked when the Blue and Gray aggregation showed the best form of the year and succeed- ed in piling up 20 points to the Centralites' 0. The season resulted in developing some good material. Perrill was an' excellent ball carrier and will make it tough for his next year's opponents. He also showed up as a good kicker. Tittel played fine football, but he lacked experience. Much is expected of him in the coming season. Consistency is Dud Stock's middle name when it comes to ground gaining. He gained over half the ground covered last year. The following is the official lineup for '25: Roy Moreland ...................... R. E. Bob Tittel ,.... ,,.,. L . E. john Neff .,,.,...... ...., R .

J I .Y I' 7 m' BASKETBALL lTl-l four such letter men as Bob Tittel, George lngram, Dud 1 Stock and Bob Stock as a nucleus for this year's basketball team, L., Coach Guy Kesler had comparatively little trouble in forming his l926 Cage Team of which Dud Stock was captain.. Among T the newcomers who tried out for the team and made the grade were Sweeney Perrill and Dave Johnston. Although playing last year but not making a letter, Frank Glassman had little trouble in making a guard position, at which he was a bear. ln her pre-season games Central was victorious in five out of eight con- tests, defeating such teams as Greenfield, Delaware, Piqua, Washington C. H., Alumni, and losing only to Cincinnati, Woodward, Zanesville State Champions and Hamilton. ln the interscholastic league, Central finished higher than any other Red and Black team since the days of the famous Hirschman-Schell combination, winning nine games of twelve played in the local loop. Aquinas, East, West and Trades fell before the Riversiders twice, South once, while the cham- pionship team, North, was the only aggregation to defeat Central twice, downing the Riversiders 31-26 in the first game of the local scholastic league played on the Red and Black floor, anal later defeating them in the lair of the Polar Bear 20-l4. Both games furnished the hardest playing exhibited in any local competition. ln the district tournament held at Delaware, Central with North was ex- pected to go through to the finish but after easily defeating Lancaster 30-I4 the Riverside boys failed to play up to their usual standard and the Orange and Black team from East upset the boat of the Red andl Black. crew, winning by the score of 26-l7, thus eliminating the team from further tournament competition. Following this upset, the supposedly invincible North team met defeat, their first of the season, at the hands of Bulldog bucket tossers. Including pre-season games and tournament contests, Central was vic- torious in fifteen of twenty-two games played, which constitutes one of the best records of the past few years. Taken as a whole, the Central team played almost above reproach but four players especially deserve mention. They are Captain Duel Stock, Bob Tittel, Frank Glassman and Ronald Perrill. Stock displayed the best basket- ball of his career and made the Dispatch and Citizen all-high teams. For the second successive season, Bob Tittel scored over one hundred points. Besides this his floor work was improved at least fifty per cent and should he repeat next year, his scoring record will probably be one of the best of any local athlete. 76 .55 .I r . . -, iv ln Frank Glassman, Central had one of the best backguards in the league. Besides benig an exceptionally good defensive man, Glassman gathered a total of 38 points. He was honored with the captaincy of the Dispatch's second all- high team. Sweeney Perrill, although playing his first year in local high school competition, put up an excellent game throughout the season, with his work in Central's victory over South as his outstanding performance of the year. He scored 53 points, several more than any other guard in the league. The lineup for the l925-26 team: Bob Tinel ,................,,...,,..,. R. F. D.

Y BASKETBALL TEAM BASEBALL Under the coaching of Mr. Cote, Central this year has one of the strong- est baseball teams which has ever represented the Riverside school. Although the experts picked the Red and Black to take the measure of most the other entries in the league, East defeated the Pirates 6-4 in the open- ing game. Errors and downright poor baseball coupled with unfortunate breaks really caused the downfall. Next came West with a supposedly strong team. lr is now history that the Cowboys were easily defeated 9-l. Bob Tittel allowed one hit, while his support was nearly perfect. On top of all this the Central boys clouted the apple all over the yard, while Dud Stock put one over the fence. Tom Moan also had his hitting eye that day, getting three hits in three times up. The second victory came at the expense of Trades High. Although the Carpenters were supposed to be easy to beat, the Red and Black squad were victors by the close score of 5-4. Emmelheinz held the Pirates scoreless until the fourth inning when they scored one run. ln the meantime Trades had scored two runs which gave them a lead which they held until the seventh when Dud Stock led off with a single. Moan followed suit. Wright was 78 N5 if P BASEBALL TEAM passed, filling the bases. usweeneyn Perrill singled, scoring Stock. Lane tripled to center. scoring all hands and making the score 5-2. ln the ninth. Trades scored two runs on five bases on balls and one hit. Bob Tittel is pitching good ball this year and he is expected to rank as one of the best in the league. His strike-outs amount to 33 so far and he has allowed but I7 hits in three games. Nloan, the Stock brothers and Rosenthal, members of last year's team, are doing Fine work again this year. Sweeney Perrill, Bob Long, jimmy Lane, Walters, Wright, Harris, Saunders and Thomas are the new members of the squad who have been putting up a good brand of ball. At the present time, Tom Moan is leading the batters with a percentage of 555. Dud Stock and Waters are close behind him with a mark of .4l8 each. The team as a whole is clouting the apple at a good clip, having an average of .253. Ar press time there remain four games to be played with Academy, North, South and Aquinas. Starting lineup: Lane Zb, Tittel p., Waters rf., B. Stock lb, D. Stock, s.S., lVloan 3b, Wright cf., Perrill c., Rosenthal lf. 79 7 fb.. :fa GYMNASTIC AND WRESTLING TEAM The gymnastic and wrestling team of 1925 has set some standards of which other schools are envious and of which every booster and rooter for Central may well be proud. ln the athletic meet at Delaware, March 26 and 27, Russel Steinbrook won the distinction of being the best all-round performer on apparatus in the high schools of Ohio by averaging 33 points out of a possible 45 on each piece of apparatus. He competed on the parallels, horse, horizontal bar, rings and mats. ln the state wrestling' meet held at Delaware, Dave Silver and Mervin Nenstiel competed. Silver succeeded in reaching the finals but Nenstiel was eliminated in the semi-finals. Central was content with third place in the city-wide gymnastic meet but as a whole the accomplishments of the gymnastic and wrestling teams are a credit to the school. S0 5 fx .I-. -- 1 ' P TRACK Track at Central this season will undoubtedly be the most eventful for several years. Although still lacking material with which to build a team capable of winning all dual meets, Coach Guy Kesler has developed several individuals capable of holding their own in any large meet where several schools are in competition. A new cinder running track, an advantage no other Central team has been able to boast of, blessed this season's squad. ln former years the Red and Black runners found it necessary to pace up and down the walks sur- rounding the school or to take to some foreign quarters. The track will at- tract the attention of the entire school to this sport and will interest the boys in becoming recruits to the squads in the future. Definite practice hours can now be assigned for each ahlete to train himself in each phase of the event. So far this season Riverside track athletes have been pitted against the North Polar Bears and the Westerville cinder athletes. Entries were also rnade in the Central District High School Track and Field Meet and the Ohio Relays. ln the North contest, Bob Tittel acquired many points and established a new city record for the javelin, hurling the spear a distance of l6l feet, sur- passing the former measurements by six feet. North was defeated 68 to 49. Bl 4' I Westerville met Central April 30, :en days after the North dual meet had taken place, to gain a 7l M to 45M Victory. On this occasion Bivens stood out as the feature performer, equaling the city record for the mile rung that of four minutes and fifty-two seconds. At the Central District Track and Field Meet held at Delaware, May l5, a silver loving cup was presented to the relay team composed of Brewer, Phelps, Barrick and C. Watkins. Bob Tittel again broke a javelin record but this time the spear didn't travel as far as in his previous record' breaker. A fourth place honor was extended the team. The relay crew was also responsible for the good showing in the Ohio Relays held at the Ohio Stadium, Saturday, April l6, when Taynor, Phelps, Brewer and Nenstiel won the mile relay. A State Meet and a City Meet with several dual track contests will com- plete the season's schedule. Several additional records will probably be shat- tered before the track curtain of l926 is lowered. Many of the team's representatives are newcomers to high school and give promise of making names for themselves in the future. Lettermen from the past sason on the present team are Captain Mervin Nenstiel, Clyde Wat- kins, Robert Tittel, Harold Thomas, and Dayton Phelps. ln June but two lads, Nenstiel and Thomas, will be graduated. GIRLS' ATHLETICS Baseball, volley ball, meets and exhibitions were the activities in addi- tion to basketball, participated in by Central co-eds this year. Class teams were formed for volley ball, and a tournament to determine the championship was held last semester. On January 22, a gym exhibition was given at Central in which both boys and' girls showed their accomplish- ments in different kinds of gymnasium work. Meets were held this semester with North High and East High girls. The events were relays, individual contests, formal work and baseball. Baseball teams were formed this spring, and a tournament played. Since the track facilities are not ready for use this spring, no track try-outs were held. Great things are expected after the new Athletic Field is completed. Miss Margaret Williams, who is Physical Education instructor for girls, sailed for a trip around' the world this spring. Mrs. Clara Raynor Rader, former instructor at Ohio State, is taking her place until next semester. Proceeds of the gym exhibition were used to buy a piano for the girls' gymnasium. The girls have displayed keen enthusiasm over the work in the Physical Education Department and an increasing number of girls are becom- ing interested in athletics. 82 N5 Ni. b GIRLS' BASKETBALL Championship lnter-Class Team: Forwards .....,..
