Page Thirty-three Page Thirty-four SAonmfj it rA (Junior cDream DREAMED we juniors were in a beautiful castle, and while we were wandering around in one of the great halls, one of us had found a lamp. He rubbed the lamp and lo! It was like Aladdin’s lamp, for a great genie appeared in a cloud above it. “What would’st thou ?” he asked. “We wish to know what this beautiful place is.” “But can you not see it is your school house?” returned the genie. Oh! It surely cannot be!” we exclaimed. But we looked around and it did seem to be our school house. “Even if it is,” we said, “where are we going from here?” What will our futures be when we have gone out into life?” “You arc already in life. Make the most of it. No powers of the earth can show you your futures. You can have them as you will make them.” But he took the lamp, lighted it, and held it up. A long, soft ray of light shone out of the door, and we could see far down the years of the past. We could see that Father Time trudged along at the side of all, and when one hindered the progress of the rest, Father Time cut him down like a weed. We could see that those who had done well within the castle had done well without. But we could determine no more. Then the genie disappeared and we uttered a sigh of disappointment, for we had not discovered what we wished to know. Then we heard a voice, the voice of the genie, say, “You have not learned the lesson I would teach. Wonder not concerning the future. Only this thing remember, ’The best preparation for good work tomorrow is to do good work today’.” Then the castle faded and became the school house, and the lamp became an annual of long ago; and thus the dream ended.

I doubt it—yet They call them Romeo and Juliet. One is bashful, the other shy, And if you tease one the other will cry. In love? 1 think so, but don’t know yet, But they call them Romeo and Juliet. Sometimes they’re happy and sometimes they're sad. She’s always good; he’s always bad. In love? I’m almost sure and I’ll find out yet, For they call them Romeo and Juliet. One’s good looking, the other’s punk; They call one “Milly” and the other “Dunk.” I'll bet a dime and a cabaret That Dunk’s in love with Juliet. JUNIOR CLASS Page Thirty-seven Frier A: M PosteA Quartet Pane 7 hirty-cipht sdAomo c(Dpie Glass of 1950 VolIIS is the class of nineteen-thirty. This group of young people is the J pride of Central High School and the future hope of the world. But you want to know of what they are so proud and why they are different from any ordinary sophomore class. In the first place they have five boys on the basket ball team. Two are on the first team, and three are on the second team. The sophomore boys are strong and manly. 'Phis class also boasts of many beauties, any of whom could easily attain the title of “Miss America.” The class of nineteen-thirty has variety, and some one has truthfully said that variety is the spice of life. These sophomores are of all descriptions. There are short ones and tall ones, fat ones and thin ones, homely ones and beautiful ones, sweet ones and sour ones, bright ones and dull ones, nice ones and bad ones, etc. It is no wonder that the sophomore class is what it is. Look at its advisers, Mr. Young and Mr. Jackson. Mr. Young has taught at Central many years, and it would not seem like school without him. Mr. Jackson is the well known and beloved coach of the Central basket ball team. No one but Father Time is able to tell what great leaders of the world will rise from this class. 1 predict musicians, artists, authors, and even a president or two. Let’s watch and see if this prophecy is not fulfilled.

The Student Council, or the executive board, is made up of three senior boys, three senior girls, two junior boys, two junior girls, one sophomore and one freshman. These members are elected by their respective classes. The purpose of the organization is to develop citizenship among the students and to promote the essential honor for each student. Student Government trains specifically tor at least two definite habits essential for good citizenship in democracy: (1) The students talk over their prob- lems with the common good in mind, arrive at a decision, and then see the necessity for abiding by the will of the majority. (2) They learn to select suitable representation to carry out the wishes of the school community. This form of Student Government has been permanently established by the sanction of the faculty and the student bodv.

JACKSON Coach DONALD RICE Student Manager WALTER McCUTCHEON ALBERT BOLINGER Payc Sixty Pane Sixty-one Varsity ASquad LAKETON 17—CENTRAL 21 Manchester opened the season with a victory over our neighbor, Laketon. v The teams were very closely matched, and team-work was necessary to win the ” game. The score at the half was Laketon 11, Central 14. The final was a score of 17-21 in our favor. SOUTH WIIITLEY 19—CENTRAL 38 The game during the first half was very closely contested, ending 13-10 in our favor, but the boys showed their superiority by trouncing them by a score of 38 to 19. The “B” team won by counting up 36 to 6 on South Whitley’s seconds. ROCHESTER 62—CENTRAL 26 Without the assistance of Captain Cook the team was somewhat crippled. The Trojans worked hard but were unable to evade the strong Rochester defense. Rochester’s offense was red hot and hard hitting to collect a count of 62 to 26. ALEXANDRIA 35—CENTRAL 29 The game was fast and hard fought with Central holding the edge at the end of the first half by a 17 to 18 margin. During the second half Huffman, Cook, and Perry were injured in a somewhat shady manner. Near the end of the game Alexandria overcame the Trojan lead and defeated us by a score of 35 to 29. The boys worked hard and showed excellent team work. FAIRMOUNT 40—CENTRAL 32 The fast Fairmount team tried to pull a walloping game the first half but 'AS were held within two points of Central. The last half they piled up a 16-point lead. Central reduced the lead to eight points. COOK PERKY “Bean” Cook was elected Captain of the “A” team and piloted it through a successful season. He has played forward on the team for three years and has proven himself to be an agressive player. He has speed and fight to sell. The Trojans” attribute a great part of their success to “Bean.” Doc” Perry, our flashy center, did much to help the team win their games. He has fight that sent him through, along with the team, to their victories. His head work easily matches his basket shooting. GAS CITY 39—CENTRAL 28 The game was as fast as was played this year by Central. Cook and Perry were discharged from the game during the early part of the second half via the personal foul route. The game ended for the Gas City boys 28-39. AKRON 21—CENTRAL 26 The game started out very fast with first one team scoring, then the other. Reber played an excellent floor game. This team was one of the most sportsman-like bunch that played on our floor this year. NORTH SIDE FT. WAYNE 29—CENTRAL 33 December 10, Central’s Trojans invaded the lair of the North Side of Fort Wayne “Red-Skins.” Central could not hit the basket during the first half and North Side led by three points at the end of the half. Led by Balsbaugh, the Trojans’ offense began to function at the start of the second half and after twenty minutes of thrilling basket ball the Trojans emerged the victors. Pay Sixty two Pat e Sixty-three Kraning played as reserve center this year. He was a dangerous man to any opponent's defense. Drive is his middle name. Max has two more years yet with the team. George Balsbaugh started the season as a sub but was soon transferred to a permanent position as forward. He is always after the lost ball, and generally comes out with it in His hands. He has two years before him yet. CLEAR CREEK 37—CENTRAL 39 One of the thrilling games of the season was played with Clear Creek at their gym. Owing to the fact that it was Clear Creek that beat us last year in the Regional, there was much anxiety over this game, which proved to be as closely contested and hard fought as any during the season. Manchester won by a 39 to 37 score. WABASH 19—CENTRAL 38 The dope was all upset when we ran all over Wabash on our floor and captured a 38 to 19 score, because a hard game had been anticipated by every one. “Firp” made a large number of long shots which stimulated the rest of the boys. BLUFFTON 37—CENTRAL 33 This is our first defeat on our floor and our first game with the Parlor City-boys. We led throughout the game but lost the game When one of their men got too hot behind center. The B” team lost to Lincolnville by a 25-30 score in a double overtime. KRANING BALSBAUGH Jim Reber, our scrappy floor guard, lias the speed that is necessary for his position. Jim works hard all of the time and is a good team-mate to his other guard, ’’Firp.” He will be the main-stay in next year’s team. • si Garber got to play almost every game, although he was a sub. He was our reserve floor guard and did a good job of reserving the game for us when called upon. This is his last year with us. COLUMBIA CITY 36—CENTRAL 34 This game was the heart-breaker of the season. A slight lead was gained by the City boys in the first half, which kept the Central fellows on the defense throughout the whole game. The City boys led at the half by a 16-22 margin. The boys fought hard and deserved the game but did not crab about the results. The second team won by a score of 37-34, which rather evened up affairs for the “A” team. Oh, the next game we play them! SOUTH WHITLEY 13—CENTRAL 82 The boys went on a spree this night. Kraning went on a tangent to collect 25 points. This makes up for some of the defeats that we have encountered this season. HUNTINGTON 37—CENTRAL 25 The boys were too happy over their score the night before to accomplish much. The Huntington boys were hitting from all over the floor. This puts the boys in better shape for the Clear Creek game next week. Too bad we don’t have a revenge game. ft Page Sixty-four “Firp Huffman was our star backguard and was always on deck when it came to making long shots, which became a habit with him throughout the season. This is his last year in school and his third on the team. Eber, another sophomore, played a great game at backguard when called upon. In the years before him it is almost certain that he will prove to be an obstacle in the path of the opponents. --------- CLEAR CREEK 29—CENTRAL 26 The boys had a little tough luck in that they missed a good share of their fouls. Captain Cook was out of the game because of injuries. The game was played in a very sportsman-like way, as seemingly most of Clear Creek’s games are. The spirit throughout the entire game was good, and for once the support was good. Let’s keep this support going. The “B” team won an easy game from the Chester seconds by a score of 26 to 8. WARSAW 16—CENTRAL 37 The rage of hard fought, lost games suddenly stopped when we toppled Warsaw over in a 37-16 victory. The boys were going fine in spite of a new lineup and all they had to contend with on the floor. Firp and Reber counted with a large number of long shots and all Trojans showed fine sportsmanship. Our second team lost to Roann first by a score of 31-23 at Roann. WABASH 26—CENTRAL 24 We went to Wabash determined to beat our neighbor city but we came out just two points behind. The boys played a fine game but could not win over all they had to overcome. Jackson used most of his men in the game to a good advantage. The second team won an overwhelming victory over Wabash seconds bv a score of 19-7, allowing Wabash no field goals. C. HUFFMAN Page Sixty-five “Jock” Huffman played as a reserve this year. He is a very consistent player. Next year’s team will be greatly benefited by his presence. Oscar Johnson, another of our subs, was full of scrap and drive. He started the season with the “B” team but was soon transferred to the “A” because of his ability to hit the basket. PIERCETON 22—CENTRAL 23 Central pulled a staller on the good sports from the north. The last halt was extremely exciting because of a score of 20-22 for Central when the boys started a seven-minute stall. Their tactics worked very effectively and left them in a better condition for the game the next evening. GAS CITY 30—CENTRAL 22 The flashy Gas City team handed our boys the short end of a score of 22 to 30. The first half was exciting because of close guarding and fine shooting. The second half brought the fans to their feet when Central took the lead. We lost Jimmie and then our pep along with the game. WARREN 27—CENTRAL 51 Central downed Warren 31-27 as the seniors played their last home game. The Trojans missed shot after shot from directly under the basket. Warren was unable to get many short shots, but Central carried the ball under for short shots consistently. Page Sixty-six Varsity rB ‘(yearn The varsity “B” team completed the season by holding the Roann firsts to a 25-14 win. During the season the boys played seventeen games and won nine of these.

The second half was slow and uninteresting, as the boys stalled in order to conserve their energy for future games. Saturday morning we met Wabash in one of the most exciting games of the tourney. At the half, Wabash led 6 to 7. During the second half. Huffman caged four from the center of the door. The delayed attack which Central used worked successfully, and the Trojans won the honor to play Laketon in the afternoon by defeating the Orange and Black 19 to 14. In the afternoon Laketon piled up a 13-5 lead, which they held at the half. W ith the start of the second half the Trojan offense began to function and held Laketon to 11 points, while Central was caging 19. The gun cracked to find the score tied at 24. During the extra five minutes Cook connected from center to give us a 26-24 victory. The final game staged at 8 P. M. Saturday night between Lagro and Central was one of the greatest defensive exhibitions ever seen in the county. Lagro held the long end of an 8-9 score with less than a minute to go, but Reber saved the game by hitting from center. As the crowd lost all semblance of sanity, the timekeeper s gun cracked to give Central another sectional triumph by a score of 10 to 9. he cI{egional Roourney As three thousand fans cheered the teams on, N. M. H. S. and Peru, winners of their respective sectionals, met in the regional tourney, held in the Berry-bowl at Logansport Saturday, March 11. 1 he Circus City boys unleashed a whirlwind passing attack mixed with sensational basket shooting and led at half time 22 to 10. At the start of the second half the 1 rojans rallied and played the Peruvians on somewhat even terms. The final gun broke through the din to give Peru a 36-21 win. That same gun closed forever the high school basket ball careers of Captain Cook, Perry, Huffman. Garber, and Johnson. £3 Pane Sixty-eight Page Sixty-nine Page Seventy THE TROJANS UNDEFEATED BASEBALL SQUAD c?9he Schedule HE coaching staff was composed of two very able coaches. Jackson coached the infield and Miller the outfield. The season turned out to be a thorough success, Central winning every game. Cook did the major part of the pitching with Perry and Balsbaugh acting as relief pitchers. Two players were lost by graduation but will be easily replaced by well coached players from last year. The coming season is looked forward to as being very successful. The schools which will probably be scheduled for the 1928 season are Huntington, Pierceton, Chippewa, Chester, Somerset, and North Side (Fort Wayne). CENTRAL 20—CHESTER 2 Central opened the baseball season by out-slugging our neighbor, Chester. Errors were kept to minimum, although it was the opening game. Cook was on the mound and performed in an experienced manner. CENTRAL 14—CHESTER 3 The second game with Chester turned out to be a joke on the Corn-husk-ers. Eby was kept from playing his regular place at second because of an injured hand, and Rice, who replaced him, showed excellently at second. Central again drove the ball all over the lot. CENTRAL 5—SOMERSET 4 'Phis, the third game of the season, proved to be the most exciting and looked to be the most disastrous one until the last of the seventh. Eby tore loose and hit a heavy one past center field. This started Manchester’s batting and in a very short time took the visitors into camp and sent them home with their tails between their legs. The remarkable coaching ability of Mr. Jackson was seen in this game. Page Seventy-two CENTRAL 6—SOMERSET 0 When Central went to Somerset for the return game, every one was going fine, although it was in the midst of snow and rain. The long consistent hits out onto the hillside brought in the six runs for N. M. '1'his was the only shut-out game of the season and also the best played by the N. M. nine. CENTRAL 14—CHIPPEWA 5 The first game with Chippewa in our baseball history was an easy victory. Central hit consistently to collect 14 runs while the opponents captured only five. CENTRAL 8—CHIPPEWA 4 Chippewa played a much tighter game on our diamond than they did on theirs, so that Central gained only an 8 to 4 victory. CENTRAL 7—HUNTINGTON 6 Huntington proved to be about our toughest competitor of the year. At the end of the seventh the score was tied. With both pitchers giving all they had, neither team succeeded in scoring in the eighth. In Central’s half of the ninth Cook hit to score the winning run after holding Huntington scoreless in their half of the inning. CENTRAL 7—HUNTINGTON 6 In the second Huntington game which was played on our diamond Manchester again demonstrated their ability to down the Viking’s team. Cook pitched the first part of the game and was relieved by Perry during the fourth. “Doc” finished the game, and, backed up by the entire infield and outfield, succeeded in holding the bats of the opposition silent while the remainder of the team slugged their way to victory. S3 CENTRAL 8—PIERCETON 7 Pierceton matched hit for hit with the Central men, and at the end of the game the score was tied at seven all. Cook performed superbly on the mound, and after two extra innings Central succeeded in driving a run home to win the final game of the season, and remained undefeated. i'ai c Seventy three Page Seventy-four c2 rack 'Grach and rfield 1927-1928 ( °HE prospects for the coming track season are exceptionally bright. Re-her and J. Huffman will be able to step in and take Finned's place in the mile and the half mile. Cook and C. Huffman hold their old places as the weight men. The sprinters and jumpers will be the same as in last year’s squad. With the old and new material that is available the season should be as successful as any ever experienced by any Trojan track and field team. The coming season will probably include meets with Ligonier, South Whitley, Columbia City (tentative). There will probably be another county meet held on the fair ground track. At the end of the season the men who show the best in all meets will be entered in the sectional meet at Peru. i I'rii c Seventy-sir 2! ee ; T 77rack cI esults 1927 PIEHCETON 46—CENTRAL 35 A worse day could not have been chosen for this meet. The track was small and slippery due to rain and snow just before the meet. Garber as usual cheated them out of the 100 and broad jump. The time he made was very good considering the kind of weather we were working under. Kintner was crowded unusually hard and came out with only a third in the 440. Cook put the shot over the fence to get second. Perry and Balsbaugh pulled their usual stunt in winning first and second in the high jump. Garber leaped out of sight in the broad jump. The whole meet was slow. Time in each event was ordinarily slow. The track team will give Pierceton an eventful battle this year. LIGONIER VS. CENTRAL TRACK The Central track and field team had no difficulty in walking away with the Ligonier outfit by the score of 52-14. Central captured all first places and five seconds. Ligonier made her points on three seconds and five thirds. Max Garber was high point man of the meet, with thirteen points to his credit, which were gained by winning the two dashes and second in the broad jump. Cook and Huffman were going strong in the shot put and took both first and second. Kintner made a fine sprint in the 440 and came in ahead by a good distance. Garber showed excellent form in winning the 100 and 220-yard dashes. When Garber enters a track meet Central is almost certain of taking these two dashes. Gingerick did some fine work in coming in second in the 220 and 440. Due to appendicitis trouble, he was unable to train hard and consequently did not show up as well as he did in meets the year before. “Jock” Huffman trained hard and did excellent work in the half mile. Perry and Balsbaugh took first and second respectively in the high jump. Both performed like veterans. Reber did excellent work in winning second in the mile. SECTIONAL TRACK MEET—PERU Central was represented at the sectional meet by only three men—F. Fin-nell, Kintner, and Garber. Although all three pressed their opponents in all events, they failed to place in any event. We are looking forward to the coming track season with hopes of sending part of the squad to the state meet. n n n 2 7 Pare Sevcnty-scrcn Page Seventy-eight Ga lend a r a nd _Alumni : 22== V .X OLLOWING is the supplement to the director)' of the alumni of Central � _ High School.
