Though now as our Superintendent of Schools he capably and efficiently serves throughout the city, we at Central appreciate his personal contribution to our school system. BOARD OF EDUCATION Seated: Mr. Witkin, City Attorney, Mr. Shaw, School Supt., Dr. Calla- way, President of Board, Miss White, Assistant to the School Treas- urer, Mr. Norman, School Board Treasurer.

Administering and su- our education is their responsibility. Good schools don happen! We are grateful to the members of the for the hours spent in formulating and improving the calibre of curricular we enjoy. 161 MICHAEL VERICH Curriculum Coordinator Central's ex-dean of boys has ad- vanced to the position of curriculum coordinator for the entire school system. His many tasks include choosing the curriculum and select- ing books and materials. Central students always receive a friendly greeting from Mr. Verich during his frequent visits here. MAURICE L. BROWN With his friendly but firm way, Mr. Brown has become known to us as one who will deal fairly with everyone. He has done much to better relations between the city and the student body at Central. Although kept busy with his routine work he always finds time to attend our school functions such as games, assemblies and dances. i FRANK CIRILLI Mr. Cirilli has become a great friend of Central students. He has aided the boys in solving the many academic and social problems which con- front them during their four years at Central. His wise and understanding nature lends itself to the many difficulties that arise every day. Mr. Cirilli, in addition to his regular duties as Dean of Boys, also assists Mr. Brown in the ex- ecutive administrative work. f xi ALICE MITCHELL In their years here, Central high girls frequently face many problemsy but the dean of girls, Mrs. Mitchell, is a counselor and a friend, always will- ing to listen to such problems and offer helpful advice. She also aids in planning programs and studies that will be useful in future vocations of Central girls. Though there are hundreds of girls at Central, Mrs. Mitchell knows most of them by their names. From freshman through senior, she treats each individual with equal understanding. .fl i it ELLIOTT.

These were familiar words spoken by members of the Booster Club as they sold their quota of tickets for their annual Christmas dance. After beginning their year of activities with the Freshman Tea, they took in eighteen new mem- bers. ln contrast to the informal initiation, a gay fun-fest, the formal initiation was a serious event adorned with beautifully attired girls in gayly colored formals. Under the direction of Mrs. Mitchell and the leadership of the officers: Judith Palmer, presi- dent, Judy Eskelin, secretary, Karen Berkseth, chaplain, and Joanne Karra, historian, the club proved itself constantly active and successful by their many other activities which included the Mother's Tea for the new members in February, a fashion show for which the members modeled clothes from shops and department stores in Su- perior. They also held a Senior Banquet in honor of the Senior members who have put three years of hard but pleasant work into the club. Y . J L,! There were hearts galore at the Booster Valentine Party. Shown decorating are Anita Bergren, Judy Palmer, Joanne Karra, and Betty Johnson. 'Santa's Hidaway' Highlight of Booster Year BOOSTER CLUB. Back row: C. Sather, J. Easton, B. Baker, L. Tierney, P.

Early in November new members of the Coquina Club were initiated. The informal initiation con- sisted of ludicrous demonstrations of talent. The formal initiation, a sharp contrast to the informal, had the girls adorned in beautifully colored for- mals. Following this event, the club put on its annual Mother's Valentine Tea in February. The Coquina dance highlighted April. This dance, the cotton-hop, was the last all-school dance of the year. For this dance new bright spring cottons were the attire. The girls and their advisor, Miss Rose, used some of the proceeds from the Hop, candy sales, bake sales and from their sales of combs and Seven- teen Magazine subscriptions to buy a gift for the school. The trip to Minneapolis for the Ice Follies was the most anticipated event of the year. The Co- quina Club, along with the other two girls' clubs, made the ioint trip. The money for this event was raised by club proiects and activities. The officers for this year were: Ina Mae Hulter, president, Kay L. Johnson, vice president, Judy Howard, secretary, Janet Roatch, treasurer, Donna Hagberg, scribe, and Joan Wasco, chaplain. .50. Eileen points out to Anita and Kathleen the advantages of having a Seventeen Magazine delivered to your door every month. lv Responsible for the beautiful decorations around the school are the Craft Club members. Shown working on the Christmas decorations are Ora Cohen, Dick Koski and Carol Carlson. The Craft Club members had no easy iob, but their desire to work and create made this club a huge success. The tasks performed by the club members in- cluded setting up the beautiful Christmas display in front of the school and making most of the scenery for the school plays. It was they who set up the very fine props for the play, We Shook the Family Tree. Paints, brushes, hammers, and saws were a familiar sight to all the club members. Many hours were spent in planning and painting each prop design. Mr. Yaworski, the club advisor, and his crew spent much time helping to make these projects successful.

Fencing, ping pong, shuffleboard, badminton and volleyball made up the activities for the first quarter of this school year. Basketball was an- other sport that had heavy winter participation and competition which consisted of tournaments and games between the various girl's social clubs. During the third quarter touch football, along with some dancing, was enjoyed. Softball was played on the blacktop in the spring. Delores Grandhagen served as president of the organization for this year, Helping her were Virginia Johnson, vice president, Beverly Gonia, secretary, and Jeannette Peterson, treasurer. Miss Dorothy Hyman was the advisor. The board members also participated in the club organiza- tion and government. To raise money, candy sales were sponsored by the group and to raise the spirit of the school a hilarious wedding pep assembly was presented. The assembly was held prior to the Cathedral game.

New History Club Gets Active Start Although the History club has been in action only a year, it has accomplished much. Under the direction of Miss Selma Swanstrom, this new club selected their theme of history and followed it from the beginning to the present. The theme set for this year was, The World's Money. In connection with this theme, the His- tory club conducted an exhibition of coins from different countries in the Douglas County Mu- seum. ln obtaining information about their subject, stu- dents of the History club wrote to many coun- tries abroad such as, India, Egypt, Japan, Greece and Portugal. Other countries with which they have corresponded were: Mexico, England, Nor- way, Pakistan and Iran. ln addition to writing to different countries for information, the students have pen pals all over the world. At their fall tea, Miss Walkens showed pictures of her trip to Europe. One of the interesting pictures of her presentation was the international House for children in Switzerland. The History Club tea was highlighted by a film and talk given by Miss Walker, shown here as she is being served by members of the group. .1-3, x ll lxlvkx 6 gg, i'Si t '-'Nl x 7 ' X B. 'Q' L. D. P.

No doubt some members of Central's new- ly formed Camera Club are busy with the me- chanics of printing, developing and enlarging, The club was formed this year for the purpose of giving those students with sincere interest in photography a chance to increase their knowl- edge and improve their techniques under the watchful eye of the club advisor, Mr. Joseph Sitek. This year the club has taken pictures of the dances and portraits of students. The group also covered the events going on around the school and had shooting sessions where they put to use their newly acquired knowledge. The officers for this year were manager, Dean Rich, assistant manager, Wayne Hicks, secretary, Cora Soper, and treasurer, Diane Gray. Good mornin. Here are your announcements for today. This familiar announcement along with a list of school functions could be heard every second hour over the P. A. system. The radio commission, composed of fourteen mem- bers under the direction of Mr. Hoff, was the source of these announcements. The students were chosen for their voice quality and enuncia- tion. Joanne Karra was chosen as chairman of the group this year. The radio commission is not only a help to the student body and faculty but it also helps the members of the group overcome shyness and to develop good speech habits.

For determining eligibility for membership a point system is used. Members are taken from stage crafts and dramatics classes. By working on stage settings, publicity, makeup, costuming or acting in a play points may be earn- ed. The Central High School Chapter 393, was estab- lished in 1946 and has added new members each year. An especially active dramatics program for the 1955-56 school year made it possible for sixteen new members to qualify for Central's Chapter. Several of the new members earned their points through participation in the play, We Shook the Family Tree, a hilarious comedy which was pre- sented to Central students and the general public. This play and other successful performances were produced under the direction of Mr. Paul Akers. A flying tackle is made by Dean Rich and Jim Smith as they pounce on Bob Nelson in the play We Shook the Family Tree. Looking on concern- ed are Dea Bowden and Jackie Lebo.

These familiar phrases could be heard coming from the student council room every Tuesday, the day on which their weekly meetings were held. Presiding over this year's council were: Roger Harmon, President, Bob Berg, Vice President, Marian Koivisto, Secretary, and Pat Leveroos, Treasurer. Many new ideas were incorporated this year. Among these were the drawing up of a Code of Conduct and the setting up of an Ethics Board to check violators of the Code. Another change was made in the election of new officers this year. They w.ere elected in January rather than in May, as in the past. The new of- ficers are: Richard Halverson, President, Roger Skemp, Vice President, Nancy Sweet. Secretary, and Pat Leveroos, Treasurer. 72- Chosen for their leadership by the school are Student Council officers Bob Berg, vice president, Roger Harmon, president, Pat Leveroos, treasurer, and Marian Koivisto, secretary. What would be a good lead for this story? I can't write a feature story on peanuts. Who has the pictures for pages 33 and 34 of the Echo? These are the distraught cries coming from the 3rd hour Journalism class in room 127. Upon looking into this chaos, one will find a very organized, highly active group assembling the Devil's Pi and our year book. Ask anyone in the class or the advihor, Mr. Thill- man, about their iob and they will tell you it isn't easy trying to make deadlines and headlines fit. With a sigh of relief they stumble from class each day thinking of an interview they must get or a deadline for yesterday's story which they iust can't figure out. A Harvest Moon dance and football schedules were sold to help replenish the funds for the Pi. The co-editors for the Pi were Rachel Maki and Sharon Cox. Assistants to the editors were Len Jacobs and Virginia Johnson. Co-editors for the Echo were Dea Bowden and Anita Bergren. Echo, Pi Goal of Writers JOURNALISM CLASS. Back row: K. Olson, J.

Music Clinic in Madison Highlights Orchestra's Year Practice makes perfect might well have been the Senior Orchestra's motto this year. The orchestra has become one of the finest in the area. An outstanding musician who has traveled the entire United States has said that the orchestra is one ot the six best in the high schools of the country. To earn a trip to the University of Wisconsin has been one of the organization's chief ambitions. About 800 students will attend the clinic which will be held the first three weeks in July. At the university the orchestra will perform to show the achievement of the Central High group. They will also play in the huge orchestra, band and chorus assembled from the various attending schools. Some of the activities sponsored by this group to earn money for the trip were concerts, candy sales, and performances at various church organizations and clubs. The most capable students .have been combined in- to a String Ensemble which played for Parent's Night and at regular orchestra concerts. Members of the ensemble are: Joanne Karra, Martha Wiesner, Jane Conroy, Dianne Gray, Lucy Nygaard, Audrey Wick, Pat Leveroos, Bonnie Boya, Kathy Biorkman, Eleanor Oakes, Jean and Pat Kubala. .

JUNIOR ORCHESTRA Although the iunior orchestra and band do not give public performances, they are very important organizations: for each member has one goal in mind, be- coming a senior bandsman or a senior orchestra member. These music-minded Centralites rehearse every second hour under the able guidance of Mr. S. Brinley Shaw and Mr. William Keller, band and orchestra conductors, respectively. Scales, improvement of technique and tone are all part of the daily session, besides learn- ing to play as part of a group. After a year in junior band or orchestra the members are usually able to step in and capably fill the shoes of the graduating seniors. JUNIOR BAND Junior Band. Saxaphone: T. Carlson, Baritone: D.

Whether playing a snappy march or a bit of hot iazz, there's definitely something about our senior band which adds color to any prqgram or activity in which they participate. This hardworking organization practices first hour every morning under the leadership of Mr. S. Brinley Shaw. In the fall, early morning march rehearsals were scheduled. The outcome was smart precision marching and rhythmic dance steps, which were displayed during foot- ball halftime shows and the homecoming parade. Also in the fall, an active sales campaign was held and with the help of home room members, the World's Finest Chocolate was sold to raise money for new uniforms. At basketball games a pep band entertained at half-time, and ushered the team onto the floor with the familiar strains of March on Old Cen- tral, Across the Floor, or Roll on to Victory. .30- A number which was a favorite of all Central basketball fans was a modern bop number, Bandiive. ln the spring the band had an opportunity to display their abilities on the concert stage as three performances were given. These were the College-Career Day assembly, the annual Fresh- man Choir-Senior Band concert, and the spring band concert. For the,College-Career day performance two numbers were played, Bells Across the Grid- iron, featuring the bell lyre and An American Weekend. Leroy Anderson's Sandpaper Bal- let, a novelty number in which sandpaper is used in the rhythm section, and Bugler's Holi- day, featuring a cornet trio, proved to be two big hits at the spring concert. A grand finish for the season was a trip to Minneapolis for the entire band and the twirlers. P r A 4551?

The Triple Trio was originally organized in i927 under the direction of Mr. Louis Meier, and since that time it has become an outstanding singing group. There are nine girls in the group plus one alternate for each ot the three parts-soprano, second soprano and alto. During the year the Triple Trio has appeared in many programs. They have performed in our school programs, at other schools, at church or- ganizations and at social gatherings. The Triple Trio does not only sing school songs but also sing popular numbers. Some of the songs which the Triple Trio sang this year are: Message of the Christmas, composed by Mr. Meier, Younger Than Spring Time, and Love is a Many Splendored Thing. 186.- ii - L e , -,.

Journalism students were especially busy this year with the publication of both the Echo and the Devil's Pi. A very successful money raising proiect was their Harvest Moon Dance which was held in November. Through participation in our fine orchestra, band and choir, we learned to enjoy and appre- ciate good music. For the purchase of new uni- forms the band netted over 51,400 through the sale of the WorId's Finest Chocolate. A Christmas open house and tea highlighted the first semester's work for the boys and girls in home economics. ln the spring a fashion show displayed the sewing and styling ability of the girls. A three-act comedy, We Shook the Family Tree, was presented in December-the first pro- duction of the dramatics department under the direction of Mr. Paul Akers. This spring the ab- sorbing drama, l.ost Horizon, was presented by the seniors. Communicating and living in our atomic age was the core of our work in science. Another theme centered around conservation and the wise use of our natural resources. Reading, writing, speaking and listening, the Language Arts, offered us practical works in the vital development of our communication skill. A useful knowledge of electricity and ma- chine shop practices was obtained by the boys in Mr. Davidson's general metals classes. This knowledge was applied through art metal work, wiring and the actual construction of electric motors.

Our Vikings continued their domina- tion of area cage teams by winning the coveted city and Twin Ports Championships. With the return of four lettermen: Gene Evens, Howie Anderson, Wayne Tongue, and Jerry Correll, our Vikings combined into a smooth working unit and outlasted the majority of their opponents. Led by Gene Evens, a sharp shooting forward with a 22.2 scoring clip per game, who broke the high school and city scoring record for a single game, totaling 45 points against Duluth Cathedral. Following Evens in scoring were center Wayne Tongue with a 14 point average and Howie Anderson, our southpaw, with an all point per game tally. Starting off the season, our Vikings trounced a highly regarded St. Louis Park five who were rated No. 8 in the state of Minnesota. Central won two games against Ashland with ease, and also twice defeated Duluth Denfeld and Duluth Central. ln the inter-city clash we won two games over Cathedral and two games over East, the last one a tough one with a final score of 48-47. In beginning a new year our Vikings downed Eau Claire Regis, a team which defeated the number two team in the state. Our Vikings were victorious in one encounter with Duluth Cathedral, a team which reached the State Catholic Tournament in Minneapolis. Also we defeat- ed Antigo, a team which copped honorable mention in the Wisconsin state ratings. Our two setbacks were at the hands of Duluth East, by the score of lOO to 83, and to the always powerful Hurley Midgets, 56-55. Hold it boys.

The cheerleaders have added to the school much pep and enthusiasm. The main obiect of the cheerleaders is to boost the Centralites so that they, in turn, can boost the team. This year's cheerleaders under the lead- ership of Miss Dorothy Hyman were Marian Koivisto, Helen Buscher, Georgia Wade, Bonnie Salo, Carol Reagle and Jean Pope. The alternate was Arnelle Anderson. In order to raise money for equipment the cheerleaders sold basketball programs at the beginning of the season. They had the pep They had the steam We had the coach We had the team. Curlers Sweep to Second Place Sweep Faster! This was a familiar phrase to those who participated in curling. This year, 32 boys took part. Central's Curling League uses the facili- ties and equipment of the Superior Curling Club. The league was organized in T948- 49 by Mr. Robert Gradin who has since served as advisor. This year, the league was composed of eight teams or rinks. The Jack Horst rink won the championship, while the Jerry Nindort and Tom Hicks rinks tied for sec- ond place. Each rink is composed ot a skip or captain, a third man, a second man, and a lead man. During the latter part of February, four members, Jack Horst, Dennis Nelson, Lee Shaw and Jerry Nindorf, journeyed to Madi- son were they participated in an all-state bonspiel. Row 1: D.
