THE GRIDIRON-REEL ONE Opening one of the most successful seasons of the Tigers' career, Central's gridiron warriors marched through a season featured by only one defeat and one tie. Warsaw proved to be the first victim for the Tiger onslaught while Buggs started one of his usual seasons by scoring two touchdowns, and Sheets, who wasn't to be slighted, also scored two markers. Bobbie Weiss was started at the quarter position and tallied the final marker for the Tigers which brought the total to thirty points. Nash accounted for the two points after scores. At the beginning of the period Warsaw made things look bad for the Tigers by wriggling over the final stripe and led Central 6-0, but the Tigers couldn't let a thing like that pass and soon re- taliated and brought the score to 32-6 at the end of the game. 4 Again renewing an old rivalry with Elkhart, the Tigers showed what their spirit under fire can do. Losing out 13 points in the first three quarters of the game, the Tigers came back in the final five minutes of the game and tied the score at 13-13. Buggs again proved to be the hero of the fray by running and twisting his way sixty yards for the first Tiger touchdown and then on the next play he shot a pass to Blanks which was good for twenty yards. Jennings received a pass from Buggs and ran fifty yards for the second score, and then Buggs threw the third pass to Weiss who tied the score. Taking their first step toward the city title the Tigers overcame North Side 19-0. Nate Buggs and Jimmie Nash furnished the scoring for the Tigers. Central went into the game the under dogs but soon proved their superiority. Buggs made the sensational run of the game by running eighty-five yards for the first touchdown. Nash was the scoring star with two markers and Buggs succeeded in adding the extra points. In the third game of the year, Central snowed under Blufton 44-13. Bluffton started out much the same as Warsaw by scoring first in the early Page 90 il THE GRIDIRON-REEL TWO periods of the game. Later in the quarter Jennings ran around left end for the first score for the Tigers. In the second period Nash put up his first marker of the day after Weiss had made a first down from the 35 yard line. From that time the Tigers had no trouble in marking up points and came out of the game the easy victors. The Yellow-Jackets were the next victims of the Tigers although Central used the reserves during most of' the game. During the nineteen minutes that the varsity played, they scored five touchdowns which cinched the game. At the end of the fray the Tigers were on the heavy end of a 31-6 score. Taking the first defeat of the season at the hands of Ironwood, Mich- igan, the Tigers put up a good fight and went down scrapping after 15 points had been piled up against them. Central had the ball near the goal line several times but were unable to put it across. Recovering from the gruelling contest with Ironwood, the Tigers de- feated Technical of Indianapolis 55-0. Buggs running true to form scored three touchdowns and made one after a run of sixty yards through the entire Tech team. Croninger returned two punts for distances of 45 and 60 yards. Jennings scored first in the second half and a little later Alex- ander put the ball across for his second marker of the day. Croninger also accounted for two scores and Wilson marked up one against the Tech eleven. The game was played in a heavy snow but this did not hinder Central, although the ball was very hard to handle. In the last game of the season the Tigers scored their third consecu- tive win over South Side and also cinched the city and N. E. I. C. champion- ships. They took the Archers down the road to defeat 26-0. Although the game lacked thrills, Jennings, Nash, Buggs, and Wilson were able to collect one marker each and Sheets and Nash accounted for the points after the touchdowns. Croninger was up to par and returned all but one of South Side's punts for gains. Page .91 THE FOOTBALL TEAM A THE SOUTH SIDE FRAY HOWARD CRONINGER has played football for the past three years, but only in the past two has he been able to play in the varsity games. Last year he played right half position in several games re- placing Babb. This year he was shifted to quarter and went down in history as one of the best quarter- backs that the Tigers have ever had. NATHANIEL BUGGS, four year letter man in football, elected captain of the team after he had played one of his most successful seasons. In his freshman year Buggs played guard, but for the last three years has been in the backfield playing fullback most of the time. He has been among the leading scorers of the city and one of the most consistent players ever to grace a Fort Wayne gridiron. RALPH SHEETS has been playing football for Central for three years. Ralph is a junior and still has one more year to play. If he does as well as he has in the past, he will be the outstanding man on the team. Sheets has divided his time between the line and backfield, being successful in both positions. JAMES NASH has divided his talent as a gridiron hero between the center position and the backfield. He was one of the outstanding scorers this season, and was easily one of the best players on the city gridirons. HOWARD CRONINGER JAMES NASH is .

CENTRAL STANLEY JONES has struggled along as a substitute until this year, When finally he was allowed to play with the regulars, he showed such ability that he was allowed to continue with them. Weighing only one hundred and thirty-seven pounds, he held his own against any opposition. ALBERT JENNINGS, one of the fastest and best ends in the city, played in practically all of the games and never failed to turn in a good record. Al was on the receiving end of most of the passing combina- tions for the Tigers, and succeeded in putting most of them over the final chalk mark. WILLIE WILSON played at various positions throughout the season, but at all of them he proved success- ful. Wee Willie has played two years and is always a threat when on the receiving end of a pass, or when tackling. ROYAL STAUFFER has probably had more bad luck than any other member of the squad. Stauffer broke his ankle last year and was unable to play. He has also received minor injuries that were not serious enough to hinder his playing.

He finally worked himself up until last year he got his first letter, and another this year. EDWARD TROTT, a sophomore, played in several games this year, it being his first year out. Ed did not see action in all of the games but managed to earn a letter. .IAMES GREENWELL, although not playing in all the games, managed to get his share of time in the lineup- Greenwell played well in all his games and should prove to be a valuable man to the Tiger machine. , RALPH JENSEN. another sophomore, played in several positions in the line but finally ended up at center. Jensen played in all the games the latter part of the season and turned in a good record.

Del got into several games this year and showed up very well. ARTHUR PAYNE came to Central this year and played in several games. He played both in the line and backfield. Pouch was one of the promising young warriors on the field and will develop into a regular if he stays with it. WILLIAM ALEXANDER played football on the varsity last year for the first time. Alex got into some games last year and received his numerals but this year he was given his first letter. JOHN SITKO, one of the underclassmen on the team, played several times last year, but this is the first year he has been permitted to play regularly. John played good ball all season and turned in an exceptionally good game against North Side. WILLIAM HATTENDORF has been in the limelight of the Tiger sports world for the past four years, but this is the first time we have ever seen him on the gridiron. Bill played in a majority of the games and was always a menace to the opponents. WILLIAM ALEXANDER ' Q 1 up DELBERT THORNBURG J as f . 'Ziff' ...i 1 1 viii - Q AA' - V fi? if , X .

Getting ai Work-Ont Central High School's new 365,000 gymnasium was formally dedicated on Monday night, December 1, 1930. The program was arranged and car- ried out under the auspices of the Parent-Teacher Association. Interest- ing talks, a beautiful concert, dances, exercises and a thrilling basketball game were all included in the evening's entertainment. Mr. Croninger, speaking first, welcomed the people and gave a short talk on school spirit. He then introduced Mr. Mendenhall, coach of the Tiger team, who made a very interesting speech on athletics and its ad- vantages, refuting some of the adverse criticism directed against it. Mr. Ward, superintendent of schools, was the next to address the throng which completely filled the gymnasium, He spoke on the advantages offered by such a gym. Next Mrs. Walter Heit, president of the Parent-Teacher Association, called attention to the American flags presented to the school by the P-T-A. She explained that these Hags represented equality and then asked the audience to rise and give the pledge to the flag. The girls' gym classes next presented an enjoyable program. Following this was a short recess during which time a variety of entertainment was offered in the girls, gymnasium. The evening activities were concluded by a game of basketball between members of the faculty and the fathers of some of the students. The next Friday morning the students were introduced, for the first time, to their new home of activity with a rousing pep session. Also, at this time, sweaters and awards were presented for football. Saturday night brought the most exciting part of the week's eventsg the Tigers opened their basketball season with a much longed for victory over the Horsemen from Horace Mann High of Gary. It was a fast game for both teams during which the spectators displayed much pep and en- thusiasm. This game brought to a very successful conclusion the week of dedicatory events for the new home of the indoor activities of the Tigers. Page 96 FOLLCW THE LEADERS! Hoy McConnell, Huy Ridpath, Charles Porter, Dick Vogelsmzg. For snap and pep this year's cheer leaders can not be surpassed. They are Central's Pep, Vim and Vigorf' All of the quartet worked hard and kept up the spirit and enthusiasm which is characteristic of Central whether we win or lose. Hoy McConnell is the only senior in the varsity group, and it is with much regret that we see Hooey leaving Central's halls. This is the second year that Hoy has been a varsity yell leader. He also has served one year as reserve. His favorite yell, he confessd, was C-C-Central Hi, and he surely made the rafters ring with this. The name of Dick Vogelsang makes one think at once of the Central Chant, that yell of yells. Ricky has also been a varsity yell leader two years and a reserve once before that. The two sophomores, Raymond Ridpath and Charles Porter, have done their stuff, too, in leading the yells. This is their first year at yell lead- ing. Ray certainly is nimble as he springs over the floor with his S-A-P-O-L-I-O. Chuck's favorite yell is Come On Blue, and just leave it to him for that. The three outstanding reserve yell leaders are Frank Janorschke, Jack Weaver, and Herbert Superiine. They have all worked very hard and they are among the candidates for next year. Frank, who has had more than half of the reserve games, still has three more years at Central, so we have a lot to look forward to. Jack, a junior, and Soup, a senior, have done all they could to arouse pep at our reserve games. All these boys have been capably trained by Mr. Howard Michaud, who has given up much time to this work. Besides this, Mr. Michaud is the director of that ever-popular harmonica band. He also is in charge of the pep sessions. No wonder We have such enjoyable sessions! Page 97 Central's first basketball game of the season was with Horace Mann of Gary. The Tigers broke the jinx that the Horsemen had held over them, by scoring a 27 to 14 victory. This was Central's dedicatory game for her new gymnasium. The Redskins of North Side were the first to hand the Tigers a defeat. They proved a little too strong for the Blue and nosed out a 16 to 14 win in a tight defensive battle with neither team holding a decided advantage. Kendallville was the second victim of the year and Central repaid them for the two-point defeat that they hand- ed her by nosing them out 19 to 17 in a hard fought battle. I THE NET SPORT IN 1930-31 WIN OVER GARRETT Central's basketeers derailed the Railroaders of Garrett by a 48 to 20 score. With the Tigers hitting the net from all angles and using a short pass attack, they turned in the third victory of the season. Journeying to Greencastle during Christmas vacation, Central suffered her second defeat of the year by receiving a 23 to 17 beating, The Stone Brothers were tco much for the Tigers. Winamac's Cagers were a little too tough for Central and they set back the Tigers by a 16 to 14 count. The Stout Brothers proved to be a jinx for the hard fighting Tigers. Having taken two reverses in one week, Central turned the tables on the Huntington Vikings and whipped them to the tune of 39 to 20. Jennings and Weiss featured with long shots for Central. ' . After staving off a determined last-quarter rally, Cen- tral nosed out a fighting Columbia City squad, 25 to 21. Nash and Jennings scored the winning points to clinih the hectic battle. , LOSE TO ARCHERS In a game marked by rough tactics Central lost a 27 to 18 decision to the Archers of South Side. Thirty-seven personals were called on the two squads in this football game. Decatur's Yellow Jackets stung Central's Tigers into submission by the close score of 24 to 20. A last quarter Page 98 -i---. ' THE NET SPORT IN 1930-31 rally led by Croninger and Weiss proved futile. the former proved a bit stronger, defeating Central by a 25 to 13 count. Central's band, as well as a large crowd, fol lowed the team. Using a part A and B team, Central lost a lop- sided game to the Frankfort Hot Dogs by a 34 to 20 count. Burton showed up best for Central. When the Bluffton Tigers met the Fighting Tigers, ' OUT OF CITY CHAMP CLASS In one of the most gruelling battles ever witnessed, North Side shoved Central out of the running for the city championship, nosing her out 18 to 16. Both teams missed many shots under the basket. Doubling the score on Central's Tigers, the South Side Archers walked all over the latter with a 24 to 12 count. This game was marked by cleaner playing than the first meeting of these schools. Anderson's Indians using a delayed offense defeated Central by a 27 to 19 score. The Tigers were handicapped by lack of height in this game. A basket in the closing moments of the game gave War- saw's Tigers an 18 to 17 victory over Central. Both teams battled hard and fast all the way. Central gave the Emerson of Gary squad a hard battle before they Went down to defeat in a 23 to 17 beating. A last quarter rally pulled the game out of the ire for the Norsemen. BREAK LOSING STREAK Coming out of a long losing streak, Central defeated the Blue Avalanchers of Elkhart to the tune of 32 to 25. Buggs led the team in their final home appearance. Washington of East Chicago romped to a 34 to 14 vic- tory over Central to bring Central's fairly successful season to a close. Although Central drew the easy part of the sectional schedule, she was put out of runing in the semi-finals by New Haven, 19 to 17, after a hard fought battle. In the first game, Central trampled Harlan under by a 54 to 16 beating. Bobby Weiss led the scoring with 20 points. Page .99 Ke . K I 4+ , ,, ,?W:QQf,5 1, EJ r 1 D . 51 1 1 ?- -1i l , .

Rear row: Loft to right-Coach Murry Menden- hall, James Nash, Ralph Sheets, Howard Croninger, Al Jennings, Assistant Coach Bob Nulf. Willie Hattendorf found himself in his senior year and made the varsity squad as a substitute guard. Willie is a whiz on the baseball diamond playing at the center's position and always gets his flies, He played football for two years and saw action in many of the big games. Albert Al Jennings, Central's sharpshooter, had an off season this year, but nevertheless led the basketball squad and played a whizz of a game all year. He has one more year in Central. Nate Buggs, our steller guard, will graduate this year and leaves behind him a record which will be hard to beat. In his four years he has been named all-city fullback twice, honorable mention for all- state fullback once for the football squad, as well as being outstanding in track and basketball. Roger Rajah Hackman was the only man on the basketball squad that was over six feet tall. Rajah also started with the reserves and made the varsity basketball squad and played well. He also played end for the varsity football squad and will be back next year. Bobbie Weiss, our star forward, graduates this year and we sure will miss Bobbie and his long arch- ing Shots on the basketball floor. He also was on the varsity football squad serving in the capacity of quarterback for two years. VVILLIAM HATTENDORF ROBERT VX EISS ALBERT JENNINGS NATHANIEL BUGGS ROGER HACKMAIN N my , Page 100 THE NET TEAM In a I-Izwldle: Nash, Croninger, Jennings, Buggs, Menze, Hattendorf, VVeiss. Howey Croninger, honor student, and all-city quarterback, leaves Central's old portals this year, but his name and fame in all branches of athletics will be remembered down through the years. The team elected him honorary captain of the basketball squad. Hilbert Bud Menze was one of the lightest basketball players on the varsity squad as well as being a snipe on that old basket. On the baseball field he was a pitcher as well as an outfielder. He will leave us this year. Jim Nash, our diminutive center, played a bang-up game at this position and always came through with a basket or so. Jim played on the varsity backfield of the football squad and was second highest scorer in the city. He will be back next year as good as ever. Ralph Piggy Sheets was one of Central's scrappiest athletes this year. Playing guard on the varsity basketball squad he made things interesting for his opponents. On the football squad he played half-back and was one of the most feared line-plungers and tacklers that ever played the game. He will also be back another year. Fred Burt Burton came to the front this year as a varsity basketball player making the jump from reserve basketball to varsity basketball before the season was half over. Burt is only a sophomore and will be back for two years more. HOYVARD CRONINGER FRED BURTON HILBERT MENZE JAMES NASH RALPH SHEETS Page 101 I FACULTY AND STUDENT MANAGERS In Central's famous portals are two people who do not receive very much praise for the work they do, Mr. C. D. Dilts, and Harry McCreary. Mr. Dilts, along with his duties as a teacher of chem- istry in Central High School, takes care of the finances of the athletic aiairs which include the sale of football, bas- ketball, and spring sports tickets. He also takes care of the signing of all contracts in the main branches of sport as well as arranging the schedules with competitive schools. Much tribute should be given to Mr. Dilts because he is a true Centralite and gives a great deal of his time to his duties as athletic manager and never falters in what he attempts to do. Koach McCreary, as he is commonly known by his friends around Central, holds down a position in athletics which might be termed doctor. Harry takes care of the players who are injured in play as well as practice, and bandages them up so they are ready to go again. On the football field, when time out is called, you will see Mac tear across the iield with a bucket of water in one hand and some wet towels in the other. When the basketball season is on, Harry will take care of the minor matters of getting the team prepared for a game by giving the players the necessary things they need to complete their outfit. When time out is called you will see Mac, or his director Doc King, throw in the towels to the athletes and possibly take in some stimultants for them. If you watch him very closely on the bench, you will see him calmly bouncing a ball up and down even in the most exciting moments. During the basketball and track season, his duties are the same. Page 102 1 A MAN OF MANY HONORS FITZHUGH LYONS Seldom, if ever, has Central had an athlete and leader who proved himself to be any more valuable or better liked than Fitz. Likewise he was one of the few athletes who ever succeeded in obtaining four major letters in one year. Fitzhugh played tackle and end on the football team. His defensive Work as tackle gained for him a position on the all-state foot- ball team for 1929, In basketball, as a pivot man, he helped to lead the Tig- ers through their season of eighteen straight wins in 1928-29 and to the state in 1927 and 1930. During the Frankfort game he distinguished himself as one of the best centers at the state. At the close of the season, he was elected honorary captain. At first base Fitz was one of the main cogs in our winning baseball teams. His height and reach were put to good ad- vantage and his ability to handle a bat proved to be of great value in a pinch. Fitz put the shot, high jumped, and ran on the track team, turning in enough points to receive his fourth major letter for the year. The ready chatter and Winning personality of Fitzhugh gained for him many friends in athletics and also among the rest of the Centralites. Cen- tral was very sorry to lose Fitzhugh Lyons. We wish him the best of suc- cess in whatever he does. Page 103 ON THE CIN DER-PATH AND THE FAIRWAY 1 I I TRACK TEAM First Q-ow: Menze, Hosler, Johnson, Keirns, Stewart, Maloley, Nash. Second row: Coach Mendenhall, Beyerlein, Morey, Douglass, Croninger, Scott, Bakalar, Vonderau, Bolson. Third row: Seals, Baker, MacBride, Ochstein. Track is an old sport in Central. Every year the Tiger thinlies turn out, and under Mendy's supervision they develop into runners and jumpers. This year the Tigers have a good team, even though it is not superior. With Buggs, Croninger, and Beyerlein back from last year, the team has developed into a good outfit. Although they lost the first two meets, they finished second in the North Side relays and had a fairly successful season. They participated in the following track events: City meet, May 2g May 9, conference meet at Blufftong and May 22, state meet at Indianapolis. Golf, a comparatively new sport in Central, opened a new field for boys to represent the' school. The team had a good season under Mr. Hemphill. , Central's golfers have never had a perfect season, but they have had good teams. The one last year, composed of Erb, Ponsot, Brautsch, Sum- mers, Davidson, and Kennedy, went through a hard season with two games each with Marion and South Side. The Tiger golfers won their share of the matches and all the 'players proved to be capable of filling their positions. One match last year with Angola was postponed because of rain.

Third 1-ow: MacDonald, Weiss, Coach Nulf, Meinzen, Nobles, Jennings. Baseball players in Central have been shifted around between coaches somewhat, but now they have a permanent coach. This year they have as their mentor Bob Nulf, who came here last fall to assist Mendenhall. The ancient and time worn sport has come to the point in the Tiger lair where there is always a good team. For the last few years, the Tiger hurlers have been superior to anything in this section of Indiana. They won the N. E. I. C. trophy for two years and hope to gain permanent possession of it this year. Teams met this year were Mentone, Decatur, Portland, New Haven, Bluffton and Columbia City. Tennis is one of the most popular minor sports in the school for those who do not care to compete in baseball and track. Mr. Tu1'pin has been in charge of the team for several years, and under him it has done well. Henschen, Burton, Brenner and Dick were the outstanding stars of last year's team. This season Burton is back, and much is expected of him. The tennis squad had hard luck at the beginning of the season be- cause they were not able to practice, but they enjoyed a fair season, Page 105 11-l-Tl One of the principal objects in waking up at all on the morning of a football game is to determine the state of the atmospheric conditions. If it is a nice, bright day of sunshine, one simply turns over and goes back to sleepg if it is stormy, one groans, turns over, and goes back to sleep anyhow. However there is one thing that is worse than a stormy day, and that is an uncertain one. I despise anything that is unable to make up its mind. If there are doubts, there are always false hopes built up, but if one is fairly certain how it is to be, even if it is stormy, it is possible to get into the proper frame of mind. Really, it is great fun at times to get out and slide hither and yon in the mud and slush. Nevertheless, it is not advisable as a daily exercise. I REVELATIONS OF KHUFU Well, anyhow, after sleeping and staying in bed as long as possible, unless there is work to be done, it is usually advisable to arise and eat a breakfast-dinner about 10 o'clock. Also, after this, it is a good idea to do something to occupy one's time and perhaps make one think a little bit-not too much as that might prove dis- astrous. Nevertheless, it is an excellent plan to forget the game as much as possible. After such rituals, there comes the assembling at the gym about noon or soon thereafter. Then usually follows a sho1't roundirobin discussion of topics of the day, or a game played with funny little squares with dots on the sides, orfwell, even sometimes it is fun to run up on top of the building and pelt the less fortunate with stones or other handy missiles. Soon one must dress and have the ankles and wrists taped, as well as take care of such injuries or weaknesses as are present. This procedure usually takes about one hour and a quarter. Anything and every- thing is talked except football, When all the extraneous matters have been taken care of, the coaches give their advice, instructions, and helpful hints. This is always a very valuable period and everyone pays the best of attention tznighty fine for a changel. Also all questions relating to the afternoons affairs are an- swered. By this time, if we are lucky, the truck will have arrived: if not, then much hurried maneuvering must be gone through in order to secure the necessary trans- portation to the stadium. It is possible to sense the attitude of the crowd almost immediately after arriving upon the football field. One of the greatest thrills in any branch of athletics is appearing upon the scene of action. VVell, anyhow, after warming up a bit, and seeing if the wind is blowing and why, and loaning the referee a penny to determine who defends which goal, the game commences. Up to this time there has been a certain tenseness and nervousness. but after the tirst kick-off this vanishes. Also, all individual recognition of the crowd ceases and they become as a unit. This is one reason why it is so important for each spectator to enter into the encouragement. Although not conscious of the crowd, one is very conscious of its temperament and possesses the knowledge of how much support is being given- One of the principal occulpations of the players is the indulging in a minor sport known as razzing, a rather strained form of repartee. This consists of telling the opposing player how much you think of l1i1n and why 11ot. Don't think that this is all that is doneg this is only when you feel exceptionally good or rather low, It really is great fun to be a member of a team that really clicks and functions as a unit. Any organization coached by Murray Mendenhall usually possesses this characteristic. By and by the game is completed and the participants are thoroughly exhausted. A good hot shower, followed by a much enjoyed meal completes the activities for the afternoon. But the memory lingers on for days, then weeks, then months, and Der- haps even years. tl don't know yetj. Page 106 iiil IN CHARGE OF GIRLS' SPORTS l Josephine Craig, Well-known as Jo, The brunette of the pair, is well liked we know Her youth and quick wit, and good humor too, Make her a favorite with us and with you. JO CRAIG Along with the new school year last fall came many other new things: a new gym, new freshmen, and two brand new gym teachers with brand new ideas. Something new is always interesting and Miss Maribah Ingham and Miss Josephine Craig have not in anyway disappointed the girls of Central. Both teachers taught in other schools before coming to Central. Also both teachers attended two colleges before receiving their degrees. Miss Ingham attended Battle Creek, Michigan, and finished her work at Wiscon- sin University. Miss Craig started physical education training at Illinois Women's College at Jacksonville, Illinois. She then completed her training at the University of Illinois. Two years ago, there was a system instituted at Central giving the freshmen gymnasium work on three days a week and the upperclassmen on the remaining two days. This system proved to be very practical and is going to be carried on thru the years to come. The gym work consists of clogging, games, volleyball, basketball, base- ball, and tumbling. The after school activities are in the form of tourna- ments in seasonable sports. Miss Meribah Ingham, that beautiful blonde, Is linked to her girls by many a bond. She is young and she is pretty, she's peppy and sweet. Each pupil agrees, She's certainly neat. MERIBAH INGHAM Page 107 LETTER AND SWEATER GIRLS At a pep session before the Central-Emerson basketball game, Mr. Fred H. Croninger awarded sweaters and letters and numerals to those girls who had a sufficient number of points. Dollie Belle Ganther, Maxine Bradtmiller and Marjorie Brighton were the three senior girls who received sweater awards this year. The sweaters this year were white with blue service stripes and a new kind of letter having G. A. A. on it. Mildred Linnemeyer also received one of these new letters for having over a thousand points and running a close race for a letter. Girls who were awarded letters for having 400 points were: Corinne Mudd, Mary Davis, Kathryn Denney, Una Mae Long, Sara Masterson, Lorene Eggiman, Glyda Heckler, Frieda Schneider, and Kate Yaple. The girls who won their numerals, the first acknow- ledgement for their work, were: Kathryn Denney, Margaret Ponsot, Mary Ellen ,Dennis, Lois Ponsot, Olive McNutt, Ethel Kaufmann, Opal McKee, Helen Money, Clara Baals, More numerals and letters were earned after the gym exhibition, baseball, and tennis were over. At the end of the C. G. A. A. picnic, more awards were made. Page 108 A GYM TO CALL THEIR OWN Since Central's new gym is to be used only by the boys, the old gym was remodeled for the girls' use. New equip- ment has made it as convenient as the new gym. One of the small rooms adjoining it was made into a corrective room, equipped with small-bars and a corrective table. The other room is now used as an oflice by the teachers. The walls in both rooms have been painted and the floors covered with linoleum. In the gym proper, new equipment consisted of travel- ing rings, jumping standards, Indian clubs, and a cabinet to hold both Indian clubs and dumb-bells. New benches were purchased, much smaller than the old ones, thereby providing a larger gym floor. The floor itself has been re- finished. The only parts of the new gymnasium which the girls use exclusively are their showers and dressing rooms. Baskets, equipped with locks, are rented to the girls. In these they may keep their gym clothes and towels. How- ever, of all this new equipment, probably no one thing is liked and favored so much as the mirror! The balcony overlooking the floor, formerly used for the boys' lockers, is now used as a balcony where one may sit and watch an entertainment in the gym below. This proves to be a great convenience as seating space on the floor is very limited. All girls taking physical education have shown their appreciation of these advantages by turning out in large numbers for all sports, especially volleyball, basketball, and baseball. An average of 150 girls participate in all the tourneys.

The first sport this year to catch the eyes of the girl athletes was volleyball. With a new gym, which the girls could call their own, to play in, everything was complete for an active year. The first call was issued shortly after the fall term started in September. Nearly a hundred girls responded. In order to develop the sport more perfectly, the girls were divided into four groups, freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior teams. Each met one night a week for practice. After several weeks of this routine, a volleyball tournament was held. The first series of games was played among teams in the individual groups. The sec- cnd series of games was between the four classes, with the outstanding players in each representing her group. This tourn- ament ended with Dollie Belle Ganther's team winning the championship. From this tournament were selected nine outstanding players to form an All-Star Team. The nine girls who received this honor are: Marjorie Brighton, Margaret Benecke, Maxine Bradtmiller, Dollie Belle Ganther, Mildred Linnemeyer, Virginia Brittenham, Sara Masterson, Ceal Romary, and Neva Williams.

The iirst call for basketball is answered by the girls of Central with eagerness and plenty of pep. The hardwood season is divided into three parts-practice, gym class and class tourneys. Mondays are put aside for the sophomore practice: Tuesday for the freshmen, and Wednesday for the juniors and seniors. This system was inaugurated this year by Miss Ingham and Miss Craig, and has been very successful. This year the first eliminations of the gym class tourney were held in gym class time. Then the winning team of each period entered the final contests, played after school. Each team was known by the name of its captain. There were 14 teams en- tered in the final competition and it was through plenty of hard work that the winner was decided. Although Ceal Romary pulled the easy side of the draw by getting a bye and some freshmen teams, yet her team stacked up against some tough opposition and well deserved to be the gym class tourney champs. In the class tourney, better games were played, one team coming out on top with a two or four point margin. But the veteran senior team, with four years' experience at its back, proved too strong for the remaining class teams and they carried off the title of Class Champions. This is the second year that the members of the class of '31 have been champs. So ended a successful hardwood season and the girls looked forward joyfully to spring sports.

The girls' part of the entertainment included a dumbbell drill and several clog dances: Hayfoot, Rig-a-jig, Old Bill, and t'Encore. They also gave two natural dances entitled The Flower XValtz, and 'tThe Blue Danube. The annual exhibition presented by the physical education department on April 17 was theoretically divided into two parts. The first division consisted of the formal gymnastic work offered in the department. This included a. flag drill, a novel athletic pageant representing dilferent sports, clog and tap dances, and tumbling. Several humorous games and relays were played during the intermission. A fanciful garden was the scene of the second division of the entertainment which consisted of natural dances. Each dance was used as a background for the following dance. In this way grass blades, a fence, gates, sweetpeas, bluebirds, and Peter Rabbit made their appearance on the scene, A gardner and two statues were the inhabitants of the garden. The only supposed t'humans danced a Virginia Reel. Finally, as evening fell on the garden, glowing fireflies danced among the flowers. making an effective ending to a very enjoyable night.

Second row: Mildred Linnemeyer, Mary Weaver, Norma Lewerenz, Miss Thomas Qcoachl, Irma Rey, Dollie Belle Ganther. Spring Sports opened this year with nearly one hundred girls answering the call. These consisted of freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior girls, the freshman having the greatest number. The first and probably the most popular game played this year was baseball. Because of cold weather, indoor baseball was played, but as it grew warmer, the girls played on their favorite diamond, across the street. This year enough responded to divide the players in four groups, meeting Mon- day, Tuesday, Vklednesday, and Thursday evenings. The freshmen were taken into a special group and taught the fundamentals of the game, while the advanced players entered a small tournament among themselves. Tl1e baseball season wound up with an interclass tournament in which all four groups took part. After each group had played his opponent once, the champion team was picked. Track and tennis were also included in the spring sports this year, track being a new sport. Several t1'ack meets we1'e held in which girls entered for individual honors. Tennis meets were held at Memorial Park for all girls interested. After these meets ended, likewise ended the school for the summer, so the whizz of the baseball and the crack of the bat were stopped until next year.

But not so insignificant either, for the election of officers followed almost immediately after the organization of the class. June James won the presidency. Betty Yarnelle became vice-president, and Mary Ellen Heit, secretary-treasurer. For the social council, the whole group chose Lucy Porter, Sara Masursky, Robert Hoffman, Edward Erb, and Julian Falk. With June James as leader, this peppy freshman class had some very interesting parties and entertainments. Exclusive, original, surprising, and captivating was the first and most important party that these new Centralites had, The Freshman Fair, held for the frosh only. They had many students on the term honor roll and so, early in their high school career, they gave promise of being one of the best groups that ever strayed into the halls of Central. When the class organized again in the year of 1928-29, Max Kaplan was elected president. Gordon Davidson was named vice-president, Roberta Aldred, sec1'etary-treasurer, and Mary Reynolds Kline, Nancy Porter, and Hoy McConnell were chosen as social council members. Immedi- ately after the officers had set up house-keeping, they became determined to entertain. Because they had graduated from frosh to sophomores, the whole family felt quite capable of sponsoring a dance. The Turkey Strut was the result. Nor did they let down a Whit in activities during their third year at Central. Members of the class were prominent on the debating teams, in athletics, in dramatics, and on the publications. In fact they did just about everything it was possible for under-classmen to do. An entirely new set of officers was elected in September. Howard Croninger was made president, Hoy McConnell won the vice-presidency, and Clara Mae Guy became secre- tary-treasurer. The members of the social council were June James, Kathryn Bash, Dorothy Schmitt, Jack Koegel, and Bob Van Deventer. In October the Junior Hey-Hey party was scheduled for this undig- nified group of juniors. I say undignified because they were certainly deprived of all their aloofness when they ascended to an enormous pile of hay in a battered old wagon, only to return to the school later to indulge in hot-dogs and cider. All of this was immense fun. Then in March, since the juniors had decided to show their profound respect for the graduating class by inviting them to the Junior Prom given in honor of said class, the junior play, The Importance of Being Earnest, was presented. Since quite an enormous sum of money was raised through the play, the Junior Prom came in May, the romantic month. Patterned after a yacht club dance, it was held in the beautiful Shrine ballroom. It was not only one of the best, but one of the most successful ever sponsored by a junior class. And finally we come to their senior year, the one in which they crown- ed their list of accomplishments with a dazzling array of successes. To show that they meant business, they selected a faultless set of officers, headed by Gordon Davidson, as president. As vice-president, holding again an office, we find Hoy McConnell, with William Douglass supporting fTurn to Page 243 GLORY AND HONOR IS THEIRS l N l Page 23 3 1833 01747 5309 GENEALOGY -W 3 4,-33 3 3 W 3 977.202 GEN 0 Km44IM1iH mmM f . 11. 15 r ' ' . 4, Q .ri ti rn ' 5 I f i Q 5 5:1 Q 3' A 1225 ' ' S f. 4 ' ' 1 A I 15,3 A I I , - ':p.Ei-.2 E z 2 5 ' s A a 3 3 1 Q 3 E 3 X 1' 3 a 2 3 5 3 s ? 5 .T 33 -.-,,,..,.,,mMj THE SENIOR CLASS REEL-Continued him as secretary-treasurer. The social council consisted of Dorothy Schmitt, June James, Agnes Wilkening, Nancy Porter, Samuel Edlavitch, and Orthel Chausse. The first party was planned for the period around the Christmas holidays. It took the form of a Christmas dance open to everyone, The financial situation of the class was greatly improved. To further it, very worth-while assembly programs were sponsored, and then came the big project of the last year, the Senior-Caldron Vodvil. It was an enormous success and served its purpose. To repeat the tradition set down by many past senior classes this prosperous group produced its class play in Decem- ber. The Brat, supported by a special cast, was great entertainment for everyone. For the future, the two most interesting programs are to come, the Recognition Day program, and finally the beautiful commencement ritual. On their graduating day, prepared to go out and prove their worth, Central will be proud of them and will wish them much happiness and good PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY MADE EASY by the COMPARATIVE SYSTEM as fcmght by E. HOY McCONNELL Now hydrosphere, my dear reader, has depth, considerable depth, weight and density. It is a prominent and likeable necessity. With these characteristics who could it be but Clara Mae Guy? One thinks of the atmosphere as being very light and easily set in motiong as Very penetrating, as very absorbing and holding, as exceeding- ly active and as a life-giver. This atmosphere is to remind you of that personiiication of personality-Mary Ellen Heit. Then there is a moon who lets her light be eclipsed by the sun. But it is a happy light and sweet moon-ing. The idea to be conveyed is that Mips Linnemeyer is the moon-'er. Electricity is one of the greatest energy fuels--enough so that the dynamo of our sport world may be likened to-chord please-Nathaniel Buggs. Another part in the makeup of our soil is gold. It is noted for its scarcity, rich and beautiful color, rarity and its ease of adaptability. One can see why sweet honey is modified by golden when we tell you the ex- ponent of the term is Hilda Blume, Salt gives fiavor, doesn't sting a bit, and the foremost salt of the earth is none other than Howard Croninger. , Geysers boil violently, then a grumbling is heard-ye Gods! Next they explode-plentee-and to make this part of the lesson easy for you, kind reader, we compare it to George Irick. Continually gurgling and babbling is the brook-our exponent of a brook is - Alice Harr. Mountains are slim and impressive, with good solid dome-this mountain likes to be fenced-William Douglass. Glaciers-cool-aloof-go south for interest-deceptive in appearance -you only see M3 of their actual makeup-Lucy Porter.

With a click click here, And Cl' click click there, Here ct click, there a click, Eiierywhere a click click-- When the camera had Hnished its rounds, the pictures of the juniors were re- vealed. First the Spotlight office came into view. The junior class was well repre- sented among the group of students who clustered around the desks ot the different departments. Marguerite Fraylick was recording points, Max Kernen was struggling over his contracts, and Simon Ackerman labored with advertisements, Next the Hi-Y made its appearance. Pete Yergens and Bill Cripe were among this group of very active boys. The C. G. A. A. girls came to light, and in the midst of this athletic group Kathleen Robinson made herself known. Then that very intelligent group, the Honor Society, brought before our eyes the faces of such people as Alice Zitzman and Ralph Immel. Ah! Here is that Well known Caldron staff. Here among the juniors are Bill Harvuot and Fritz Schafer, junior and snapshot editors of the year book. Next Sarah Ochstein and Rachel Frame make their debut as members of Sorosis. Among the juniors also are found mathematicians, chiefly Bill Daseler and William Jones. Dramatics play a large part in school life and here the camera finds the faces of John Malay and Gladys Doenges. Virginia Arnold, Betty Colling, Esther Masterson and Mary Ellen Dennis are clustered about the paint pots in the art department, while nearby are a group of debaters, Helen Miller, Dick Johnson, and Jean Beugnot. Four athletes emerge from Central's portalsf.lames Bash, Ralph Sheets, Al Jennings and Bill Alexander, :tll Juniors. Last but not least we come to the Booster Club where we find traces of the work of Dick Vogelsang, Betty Leonard, Jack Weaver and Dot Lenz.

They braved the dangers facing them by calling Dick Vogelsang to lead them in their first activities in the halls of Central. Dick lived up to their expectations and has proved himself to be outstand- ing in extra-curricular activities. He has been varsity yell leader for two years, and he has been outstanding in debating, Spotlight and Caldron work. He was aided by a competent group of minor officers-Dorothy Sutton, vice president, Carmela Cafaro, secretaryg Flo Pio, John Malay, and Kathleen Knisely, social council. Dorothy, Kathleen, and Flo have been outstanding in athletics. Carmela left Central to study music in Italy. John has proved himself adept with the paint brush. The class members were advised by Miss Christman and Mr. Virts, mathematics teachers in Central. n This illustrious class held a big party in the girls' gymnasium on November 28, 1928. In the spring semester they held an outdoor party at Foster Park. ' Having acquired more knowledge, these young people were advanced to sophomores. In that year they chose Bill Harvuot as their guide. Bill has been outstanding in his work on the Spotlight and Caldron and has been a member of the Booster Club. He was one of the two juniors chosen to membership in the National Honor Society. In his office he was assisted by Bob Yergens, vice president, Jack Weaver, secretary-treasurer, Mar- guerite Fraylick, Dorothy Baier, and Ceal Romary, social council. Bob is a member of the Hi-Y and Booster Clubs. Jack Weaver is also a member of the Booster Club and was reserve yell leader in his first year. Marguerite has been C. T. C. president and active on the Spotlight and in Booster Club. Dorothy and Ceal have been interested in athletics. ' Mr. Wyatt, history teacher, and Miss Nielsen, commercial geography teacher, advised the class in their second year. The class put over two suc- cessful activities. They held two dances, the Yuletrot and the Sophomore Stampede. Having advanced to juniors this year they were again successful in their selection of oflicers. Bob Yergens has proved efficient as president, ably assisted by Fritz Schafer, vice president, Marguerite Fraylick, secre- tary-treasurer, Gaylord Leslie, Ceal Romary, Dorothy Lenz, Rachel Frame, and Pauline Roe as social council members. Fritz has been very active in the Spotlight, Caldron, and Student Players. Gaylord took part in this year's Senior Caldron Vodvil. Dorothy Lenz, popular pianist for the pep sessions, is a member of the Student Players, Booster Club and Honor Society. She was one of the two juniors chosen for membership in the National Honor Society. Pauline Roe has been active in athletics as a member of the tumbling tea.m and C. G. A. A. This year's advisors were Miss Hawkins and Mr. Coil, teachers of English. The class held dances in the girls' gym after the Horace Mann game and on February 20, ' Each year. the junior closs holds a Junior Prom in honor of the graduat- ing class. This year's Prom will take place May 23 in the Central gym. Page 29 SCENES AMONG THE SOPHS As the cameraman wanders through the throngs of hurrying students who crowd Central's halls, he sees many faithful and loval ones who are not dignified seniors, nor haughty juniors, nor yet lowly, humble freshmen. Hail thc Sophomoresl Follow his journeyings. We shall first seek a picture of scholarship, a pageant of the seekers after truth and knowledge. Click! Our camera catches Rita Bolson, Benjamin Falk, Rose Marie Litchenstadt. and Katherine Yaple, who seem to be naturally inclined to keep up the highest standards of scholarship, and still be active in other phases of school life. The photographer next invades the sacred precincts of the girls' gym- nasium. Here he finds-sonh omores! Madelyn Weseman. Sara Masterson, Anne Ferguson, and Opal McKee-all active in athletics and in the C. G. A. A. The camera catches fleeting glimpses of basketball. baseball, volley- ball, and all the sports which cultivate strong, healthy bodies. Focusing his lens on the bovs' gvmnasium. on the gridiron, the diamond. and the cinder track, we see Elijah MacDonald, Fred Burton. and Lawrence Romano, stars of our reserve basketball team who went through the season with very few defeats: Ed Trott. Jim Greenwell, and Johnny Sitko, who showed lots of promise on the football field as well. The cameraman must hasten on. looking for new worlds to conouer. But he's come to the wrong place-the Boosters can't be conquered, in spirit or in accomplishments. And here. too, are sophomores. upholding the finest traditions of Central. Robert Hopper and Marion McKay are a few among those helping to arouse enthusiasm and to aid the Various de- partments of the school. But our focus again changes, and we turn to dramatics. Here we get a snapshot of George Koegel. Neva Williams. and Joe Tucker. who have appeared in plays and are members of the Student Players' Club also. The scene shifts once more. and we follow the activities of those who have formed the Central Triangle Club for freshman and sophomore girls. Here our camera clicks once more and we see a tableau of usefulness repre- sented for the class of '33 by Martha Fox and Ernestine Stumpf. As the ever-changing pageant of Central life is represented in the halls and class-rooms, we see in some rooms strange figures and letters. Ah! these must be members of the Math club. Our camera catches Glyda Heckler and Jean Beugnot engaged in solving a difficult exercise. Art seems quite a jump from mathematics. but the Brush and Pencil club must not be left out. Sophomores are outstanding here also, among them being Anita Scheumsnn. Musical sounds are heard, and the photographer hastens toward their source. It is the Glee club, and his camera records the faces of Lois Ponsot and Kathryn Petty. The cameraman notices boys and girls hastening into a small room at the end of a hall, and soon stirring music emanates from the key-hole. The band is practicing. Shooting through said key-hole, the camera takes a picture of Richard Johnson and Earl Superfine, two of the hard- working horn-blowers, who instill so much enthusiasm at pep sessions and games. Thus our camera has recorded the tableau of the class of '33 for Central's future generations.

THE SOPHOMORE ROLL OF FILM The sophomore class has taken its place on Central's film of activities, and has shown that it is a class with a great potential future. At the beginning of the school year, Marion McKay was chosen pres- ident of the class of '33, The office of vice president was given to Benjamin Falk, and Kate Yaple was chosen sercetary-treasurer. The social council was composed of Esther Sams, Ernestine Stumpf, Kenneth Baker, Charles Porter, and James Yarnelle. The oliicers then chose Miss Mary Zent and Mr. Robert Nulf as advisors for the class. The social season opened with a hard times dance, the Hobo Hop, December 5, which was held in the gymnasium. This dance was open to all students. Suitable decorations and refreshments helped to make the Hop a success. With the spring came another dance, one in keeping with the season, which was enjoyed by everyone. As advanced standing creeps upon the sophomore class, social activities will increase, and their roll of film picturing school life will be longer. The pictures now are few, but they are distinct and interesting. Esther Sams, Ernestine Stumpf, Charles Porter, Kenneth Baker, James Yarnelle, social council.

THE MUSIC BOX In looking over the music on a piano, one's thoughts are turned to the freshmen, the graduates of '34, The first selection is Betty Co-Ed. Doesn't Ruth Alice Ream resem- ble her? She is pretty, popular, and full of personality. Happy Feet reminds one of Nancy Kover. Can she dance! Paul Lenz and Treva Burton symbolize The Little Things in Life. A Warning to Jane Latz,- Be Careful With Those Eyes. What caused William Brinkroeger to be that Way? Maybe It's Love. Ramon Novarro must have been thinking of Helen Willits when he sang Charming I'm A Dreamer calls to mind Lucille Myers. Irrepressible Felix Zweig sings Gee, But I'd Like to Make You Happy. Babette Dessauer, Who Wouldn't Be Jealous of You with your Wonderful grades. ' Did you ever see Louis Rice except when he had his Sunny Side Up? James Curran possesses Those Smiling Irish Eyes. Marjorie Hanley, Go Home and Tell Your Mother that We certainly all like you. And now a suggestion is offered to the freshmen class. Why not accept Irving Berlin's, Oh, I Hate to Get Up in the Morning as your class song? -Betty Edlavitch. Page 36 FRESHMEN CLASS OFFICERS i Mr. M.

STARS IN THE MAKING On a mild September day last year, a group of young people passed through the portals of Central with the intentions of becoming real Central- ites. With their records clean, they, the class of '34, have endeavoredto make their impression of Central one of everlasting remembrance and respect. They fell directly into the spirit of Central and began those four short, ambitiously happy years that all high school graduates remember so vividly. Although small in importance to the Camera of School-life, they were made a bit more distinct by several brilliant members who promise to be very popular in school. Paul Lenz was elected president from a ticket composed of Ruth Alice Ream, Betty Craig, George McKay, and Paul Lenz. Nancy Kover was chosen vice-president, and Marie Walda secretary-treas- urer. The social council members were Marie Hanley, Jane Latz, Babette Dessauer, Jane Weil, Peggy Weaver, and Richard Miller. Under the leadership of their capable officers, the freshmen, with only a week's notice, held their annual party, a big success both financially and socially. The party was a vaudeville program starring several popular students of Central, the skits, songs, music and solos were very entertain- ing. The class of '34 has many members on the honor roll who, as time brings them closer to the Camera of School-life, will be more important than now. Until then, they will do their best to better Central. Marie Hanley, Peggy Weaver, Richard Miller, Jane Latz, Babette Dessauer, Jane Weil, social council.

Lewis, Demi. Fred H. Croninger, Angeline Chapin, Clerk Principal One day four years ago as I was walking down the street searching for a photographer, I saw a studio in the distance. Coming nearer, I saw the words Central High School engraved across the entrance. As I passed through the door, I realized what a really Wonderful studio I had found. The owner of this remark- able place was Fred Croninger, the most patient and the most gracious photographer that I have ever met, His studio was so perfectly organized, ran so smoothly, and his finished DlClLll1'GS were so remarkable that the fame of him and his apprentices was known throughout the state. His able assistants were Miss Anna B. Lewis and Miss Angeline Chapin. In order to have these pictures finished so perfectly they must have the best of care. First. the pictures had to go through the hands of the English Photo- graphers, which were headed by Mrs. Vera Lane and assisted by Ruth Brown, R. K. Butler, Hazel Hawkins, Marian Ingham, Rosza Tonkel, Katherine V. Welch, Geneva Burwell, and Albert Coil. All studios should have a foreign touch. This was furnished by photographers of several nations. The chief one was Mary Harrah, who taught Latin, assisted by Florence Lucasse, Eva McKinnie, and Leah Austin. Mildred Brigham and L. A. Stroebel added the French and German touches respectively. All studios and pictures must have a history to make them more interesting. Rex Potterf was the chief man in this case. He had several able helpers. From' row: Christman, Ehle, Barnes, Byers. Back row: Wilson, Strauch, Imniel, Gardner, Johnson, Neilsen, Mosher. Page 45 FACULTY I- Frmzf row: Wyatt, Burwell. Buck row: Tonkel, Ingham, Perry, Baihle. Those who were assigned to help him were: Mary Catherine Slneltzly, XVillis Richardson, Vera Pence. Bernice Priest. Robert XVyatt, and Mrs. Sadie Bacon Hatcher. All pictures go through scientific processes. Charles D. Dilts was in charge of chemistry: Harry L. Veatch. physics: Meredith C. Aldred, botany: Howard H. Mich- aud, biology: Gertrude Neilsen, physical geography. In this case the finished pictures have a future, therefore they must pass through the vocational department. Here the pictures were touched by John H. Hines as head craftsman. His assistants Were: Roland F. Mottar and lrven Tonkel, co-opera- tive: XY. XV. VVhite. printing: L. G. Hemphill, auto mechanics: Gilbert M. XVilso11, electricity: and Earl Springer, auto and electricity. All people are different so we must have different sized pictures. These are determined by the mathematics department, This department was headed by Mary Elizabeth Gardner who was ably aided by Marie Christman, John Reising. Ralph Yirts, and Charles Turpin. Q Photographers cannot work successfully on an empty stomach and, as this was a modern studio. it was equipped with a hipme economics department. under the direction ot' Gertrude Keep, Amy Barnes. Maple Byers, and XYilma Strauch. Front row: Reising, Brown. Buck row: Priest, Richardson, Tonkel, Smeltzly, Zent, Aldrecl. Page 46 FACULTY I Front row: Thomas, Pence, Spaulding. Buck row: Mays, Potterf, Shackelford. Mottar, Hines, YVelbauni, White. The studio must be kept in perfect repair. This was attended to by G. H. Russell, the head carpenter, ably assisted by Charles Mays. Basil Shackletord, Roy Spaulding, and Bertram Welbaum. Beauty was added to the pictures by various tints and shades. The pictures were retouched by the more artistic photographers, Mary Zent and Mrs. Lois Mosher. All finished pictures are 11ot alike. Those to which I refer represent the stars of the gridiron, the hardwood, the ball Held. and the boys who seem to have won the graces of mercury. These pictures niust be taken by special photographers, who a1'e Meribah Inghram, Joe Craig, Murray Mendelhall, and Robert Nulf. All photographers need the consolation and recreation which is to be found in the studio library. This place of relaxation is presided over by Erdean McCloud and Hester Perry. Some photographers are not only interested in photography but also in dramatics or music. In this particular studio the dramatic department was directed by the very capable Miss Marjorie Suter and the studio orchestra was under the able direc- tion ot Mr. Gaston Baihle. Front row: Michaud. . Back row: Veatch, Lucasse, McKinnie, Stroebel, Harrah, Butler, Brigham, Austin, Coil, XVe1ch. Page 47 . 1,11 AS WE SEE THEM The faculty! Those illustrious folks we see quite frequently in Cen- tral, unless they be giving worthy orations at clubs, home tending the baby while wifey shops, or boarding a train for the home town! These said people are reputed to possess a marked degree of influence over the student body, because they wield the fateful pen which records the grades. Some amuse us, some bore us, some we adore, others terrorize us, still others make no impression whatsoever. What, then, are these queer people like? Let's follow Schawn, the photographer, as he goes on his espionage ex- pedition and catches them in their characteristic poses. Thru the East Douglas street entrance he sneaks, up to the first door to the right, and with a quick stroke he snaps the picture. This is the well- known session room, where some two hundred restless students are listen- ing to the following sad bit of news as announced by Miss Ehle. I hate to disturb you, but I should like your attention for a few min- utes please. Now this-this well, game of signing out to go to lockers has gone far enough. Only ten minutes of this period have passed, and already six people have asked for locker slips. There's absolutely no sense to it. If you need books, why- . But Schawn is getting away from us, heading across the hall. High girlish voices come stampeding out through the double doors, Mr. Aldred's room. The photographer snaps the second table on the south side, univer- sally known as the worst in the botany department. Mr. Aldred is patient- ly explaining the structure of the protococcus. Now Schawn is running like a broken-down Ford through the halls. Where can he be going in such a hurry? It's to 110. Now when I was in to war, states the instructor, but Schawn is off again, so back we shoot to 106, just as he snaps Mr. Virts in his characteristic pose-leaning on his desk with his chin in his hands. He is in the middle of a hair-raising tale. Up until that time, folks, no one had thought of an example to illus- trate this point-in negatives the more subtracted from the quantity, the higher it goes. But I had a friend who suddenly remarked one day, 'What about a balloon when the sand bags are released ?' He had astounded the professors as well as the math students. There goes Schawn on a rampage again. By that glare in his eye we surmise he is bound for 224, but no, iirst he stops at 103 to hear Daddy John Reising tell about the greatest little horse that ever lived, Selim, to relieve the monotony of right triangle problems. We are running toward Lewis Street, it looks like Schawn is headed for 221. Today I shall have the pleasure of assigning the review to--- gloats Miss Lucasse, but off hops the photographer, probably recalling the days when he had to conjugate the verb fero. While chasing him we Catch some strange words issuing from 232, which sound something like this: Jeanne, ne podlez pas tant. Tous les jours il faut que je vous parle du bruit que vous faites. Maintenant, au tableau, toute la classe. Our snapshotter zips by the library just in time to hear Miss Perry peeping, 1 have cards here for 338, 220-. Then it must be time for the bell and we had better be vanishing before we are caught peeking. There goes Schawn, hurrying out the Lewis Street door to headquarters, carry- ing with him his precious snapshots of the everyday life of Central High School's famous faculty folk. -Mary Hosey Page 48 1 4 'ff-f-rw .f...Tv., lkf'f..i-2V?iYFzW-12i '5 - , 4 , fi 'rw f M f ,-any-5, my -3, 0 'AE ,V -5.1 Ll: in ', f :.+6,.1,,1s.:m,. 4, ,X ,g.

Page 6.2 CO-OPERATIVE INDUSTRIAL VVORK The Co-operative Industrial Club was organized in December 1928 under the direction of Mr. R. F. Mottar, head of the Co-operative Apprentice department, who has been retained for the three years as club advisor. The club roll now tops the century mark, including twenty-five charter members, fifteen additional associate members, fifteen honorary members, and fifty active members. The club emblem, of symbolic industrial design in blue and silver, is authorized for members in the form of lapel pin, ring and chenille sweater emblem, Junior and senior Co-operative students are eligible to membership and are classed as active members until graduation, if they maintain satisfac- tory scholarship and active participation in the club. A period of three months probation is required of applicants before membership is conferred. Graduate apprentices are transferred to associate membership. Honorary members representing the industrial field and faculty are enrolled upon acceptance of invitation, by reason of their interest in and close association with the club activities. Officers for the Year: President, Edward Feller Vice President, Harry Hart Secretary-Treasurer, Joseph Warren Liggett Assistant Sec'y-Treas., Adren Summers Faculty Advisor, Mr. Mottar The objectives toward which the club aims its activities are those of better fellowship and unity, and the broadening of social, educational and industrial contacts of co-operative apprentices. The club calendar provides each month for the regular business session, held on the first Thursday evening, and social activity in the form of theater parties, golf tourneys, bowling, skating, picnics, dances, etc. The annuallbanquet is held in August in honor of graduating members. The most vital side of the club's work is found in the inspection trips to indus- trial plants, discussion of industrial policies, processes and methods and the 1nd1v1dual development of members for vocational and civic leadership.

Modern costumes and settings added to the attractiveness of the operetta. The plot centers around two young girls, Jerry and Sandy, who are cousins. Sandy rejects her suitor, Allan O'Day, because her mother, Lettice Bank, insists that she marry him for his wealth. In an efort to forget Sandy, Allan goes west and converts his ranch into a tourist camp. Lettice Bank takes her husband, Amos, and Sandy and starts in pursuit of Allan. When they arrive they camp on some valuable oil land which is owned by Geraldine Bank. At the time they do not know that the land contains oil. Jerry, driving her aunt's automobile, dashes into and demolishes the police station. She fears she will be arrested, and in order to hide her identity, she hires out to Allan as a helper. John Draydon, Allan's cousin, wishes to buy Jerry's land, but he can- not locate her. He hires Hunter, a detective, to find her but he finds that Hunter is cheating in order to obtain the land for himself and fires him. Mimi, a friend of John, finally locates Jerry at Allanls farm. Jerry and John soon become attached to each other, but, by a twist of circumstances, Jerry begins to suspect John and Mimi, so she denounces them. But she soon finds out that she was mistaken. Jerry promises John she will never doubt him again, and so everything ends happily. , . Page 65 1-ll I MUSIC-THE CLICK OF THE CAMERA Carl Brenner Bcmzcl-Reucly to Ivlarch Boys' Glee Club Click! Another picture has been taken! Another piece of music has been finished! As the click of the camera is essential to the picture, so is music necessary to everyday life. The music for our studio is furnished by the band and orchestra. The band is a necessary asset to pep and enthusiasm at football and basket- ball games. Carl Brenner is the popular leader. The orchestra, which contains a number of talented students, has entertained the student body with several programs. Mr, Gaston Bahile directs all the music activities of Central High School.

Bottom-1930 Operetta, The Thief of Bagdadf' This year the Girls' Glee Club sang Christmas carols in the halls, thus helping to radiate the Christmas spirit. On January 10, a Minature Marathon Dance was staged in the girls' gym. This affair was a huge success due to the eiorts of both the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs. Decora- tions of gold and white formed a beautiful background for this alluring picture. An operetta was put on this year in May by the Glee Clubs entitled Jerry of Jericho Road.

Page 70 PUBLICATIONS PICTURE THE SCHOOL IN WORDS -I Everyone knows that a camera is not complete without a box. In fact a box is very essential, because if there were none, there would be no camera. The box holds every part of the camera together. In such a way do our publications represent the box of a camera, as the publications tie the pupils and the school together. The box has four sides and our box, not different from any other, also has four sides. Our four sides are represented by: The Spotlight, the Caldron, the Fragmenta Latina, and the Central Light. The Spotlight was in the capable hands of Max Kaplan the first semest- er, and June James the second semester, Max was assisted by: Sam Edla- vitch, managing editor, June James, desk editor, Gladys Doenges, assistant desk editor, Marguerite Frayiick and Roberta Aldred, news editors, Fritz Schafer and Bill Harvuot, makeup editors, Herman Leitz and Neva Wil- liams, sports editors, Harold Tucker, Gordon Davidson, Howard Croninger, Elizabeth Colling, andv Walter Ehrman, sports writers, Rose Marie Lich- tenstadt, exchange editor, Anna Doran, feature editor, Marion McKay, Agnes Wilkening, Hoy McConnell, Robert Geake, Jean Ludwig, and Fern Eckelberry, feature writers, Ernestine Stumpf, Mary Ellen Heit, Alice Harr, Dorothy Hassan, Helen Hassan, and Roberta Aldred, copy editors, and Mary Hosey, literary editor. The Caldron, our year book, was under the guidance of Mary Ellen Heit, editor, and Mary Hosey, assistant editor. Clara Mae Guy and Sam Edlavitch were senior editors. Other editors of the Caldron were: Agnes Wilkening, business manager, Max Kernen, circulation manager, Roberta Aldred, club editor, Dorothy Schmitt, organization editor, Gordon David- son, boys' sports editor, Harold Tucker, Howard Croninger, assistant boys' sports editors, June James, Geraldine Havert, Neva Williams, girls' sports editors, Fritz Schafer, Alice Harr, and Hoy McConnell, snapshot editors, Catherine Immel and Wilma McMaken, art editors, Anna Doran and Max Kaplan, feature editors, Martha Florence Coppock, typist, Bill Harvuot and Gladys Doenges, junior editors, Marion McKay and George Koegel, sophomore editors, Betty Edlavitch, Felix Zweig, and Babette Dessauer, freshmen editors, Leah Austin, faculty advisor. The Fragmenta Latina, a Latin Paper, published by the Latin Depart- ment, claimed Marguerite Fraylick and Charles Reichelderfer for its ed- itors. The faculty advisor was Miss Florence Lucasse. The Central Light, a literary work in which the best essays, poems, and short stories of each class were displayed, had as its leaders Miss Katherine Welch for the autumn number and Miss Marian Ingham for the spring number. Page 71 i DEDICATION T O the Alumni of Central who have thru their perseverance, loyalty, and devotion founded and fostered the ideals and traditions of this school, We dedicate this Caldron. Thru them it has been made possible for us, the present students, to enjoy and carry on these same traditions and ideals.

Tonkel The lens is one of the most essential parts of the camera, because without the lens the picture cannot befocused. In such a way is the public speaking department important to the school. This camera is a little different from all the rest. Our lens represents several different things. This lens is equal to the Varsity Debate Teams, the National Forensic League, and the Speech Department. The affirmative varsity team was made up of Joe Trainor, Sam Edlavitch, Agnes Wilkening, and Fritz Schafer as the alternate. The negative varsity team was composed of Jean Ludwig, Dick Vogelsang, Mary Ellen Heit, Vivian Young, and 'Clara Mae Guy as alternate. Vivian Young was originally chosen to be on the negative team, but due to serious illness. she had to drop debating. She returned shortly after the debate season, and is the same old fighting Vivian. Our debates were held with Columbia City, Warsaw, North Side and Hunting- ton. The teams won THREE out of the FOUR debates. In the fall there were preliminary debates, allfl the question was: Resolved that Chain Stores should be abolished. The affirmative team was composed of Vivian Young, Max Kaplan, and Sam Edlavitch. The negative team consisted of Jean Lud- wig, Joe Trainor, and Agnes Wilkening. These teams debated with LaOtto. The next part is the National Forensic League, which is the debating society. One must have 10 points before he is eligible. This year two new members will be taken into the club. They are Dick Vogelsang, and Joe Trainor. The oflicers for this term were: PresidentTSam Edlavitch Vice President-Agnes Wilkening Secretary and Treasurer!-Clara Mae Guy Librarian-Dorothy Schmitt The annual banquet was held and the pins were awarded to the new members. The second semester has seen the largest enrollment ever recorded in the speech department. The enrollment numbered 51. In the fall the speech department sponsored a reception for all freshmen. and they have faithfully lived up to their slogan: Bigger and Better Speakers! Everyone knows Rosza Tonkel, that undefeatable, unconquerable debate coach. It is a well known fact that she turned out two winning debate teams, a wonderful program in honor of Washington's birthday, and a very well matched extemporaneous contest. The students are proud to call her our own. The best thing about this is that we do not have to share her with any other school. Page 74 DRAMATICSIBACKGROUND-tSETTING N I Marjorie' Suter No matter how beautiful the figures are, if the setting is not in unison, the figures seem to lack life and luster. The background may not be the most important part of the picture, but it is certainly a very necessary factor. The background of our picture is furnished by Miss Marjorie Suter, the director of dramatics, in the wonderful studio, Central High School. Her finished pictures include such titles as The Shutting of the Door, The Finger of God, and VVhat Men Live By. In the first picture, The Shutting of the Door, the characters were Agnes VVil- kening, the young wifeg Sam Edlavitch, her husband: George Koegel, the foolg Robert Geake and Orthel Chausse, the two robbers. This play represents a foolish misunder- standing between a husband and his wife over a door. They finally speak to each other after two robbers come and nearly kill both of them, and they all live happily ever after. The second picture, The Finger of God, represents the triumph of right over wrong. The sinner was portrayed by Joe Tucker, his secretary was Vivian Young, and his valet Fritz Schafer. Tl1e Christmas picture, What Men Live By, was the story of an angel sent to earth to learn th1'ee things: ill That which dwelleth in man, 123 That which is not given to man to know, 135 Whereby nien live. It was beautifully protrayed by Robert Geake, Clara Mae Guy, Joe Tucker, Eve Gibson, Max Kaplan, Neva Williams, George Koegel, John Malay, Anna Doran, George Irick, and the McAllister twins. Miss Suter is to be complimented for turning out such beautiful pictures, and her settings were equally as beautiful. Without the appropriate settings her pictures could not have been so wonderful to behold. It must be said in closing that we have some line artists in this wonderful studio.

Liflo Porter, as the lead, proved to be a huge success, and of course the cast claimed Miss Marjorie Suter as its very capable director.

Liiio Porter This is the story of a young waif who is found by MacMillan Forrester at a night court. He takes her to his home so that he may study her character as he is Writing a book which he calls The Brat. Due to the fact that she is a nameless Waif, she is disregarded by society and has a difficult time among these aristocratic people. Clara Mae Guy did a marvelous piece of Work in portraying Mrs, For- rester. Stephen, characterized by Herbert Superfine, was very well done. This was his first appearance in a play. William Douglass and Jack Koegel were splendid in their character roles. Helene Smith was clever as Mrs. Ware. Sara Masursky, as Dot Ware, gave the audience a fine picture of a little girl who is used to having her own Way. Dorothy Schmitt fitted admirably into the role of Jane DePew as did Georgianna Miller into that of Angela Smythe. Timson, played by Hoy McConnell, was perfect. Margot, interpreted by Eve Gibson, demonstrated that a person does not have to hold the lead in a play to be a great success, The Brat was very Well portrayed by Liflo Porter who deserved every bit of praise she received. In fact the whole cast worked to make the senior play THE BEST. And they succeeded. The class made a profit of nearly three hundred dollars.

Of course everything turns out fine in the end and the two boys discover through Lady Bracknell that they are brothers, and the eldest brother honestly and truly has the name of Ernest. This play was given only one night, but that night proved that it was a huge success. The class cleared 3139.60 on this play counting the expenses which were 32840. The others who helped make this play a success were Hoy McConnell, Mary Ellen Heit, George Alford, Miss Lewis, Herbert Superiine, Harold Tucker, and Mr. Richardson. The persons who sold the most tickets were: Anna Doran, Dorothy Schmitt, and Clara Mae Guy. We mustn't forget the stage hands, Orthel Chausse, Robert Geake, and Walter Ehrman, who did an excellent piece of work.

ONE ACT PLAYS I The first of these plays was entitled The Shutting of the Door, with the following students as characters: Sam Edlavitch, Agnes Wilkening, George Koegel, Orthel Chausse, and Robert Geake. This was the story of a misunderstanding between husband and wife all on account of the fact that both of them were too stubborn to shut the door. A fool comes in and steals some of their bread. Two robbers also come along and make themselves at home. Because of the thieves' desire to kiss his wife, Jan Tindel throws them out and discovers that they have left some gold, He is so surprised that he forgets himself and speaks first. His wife says: Jan Tindel, you were the first to speak. Now, go and shut the door. The second play was entitled The Finger of God. The characters were as follows: Joe Tucker, Vivian Young, and Fritz Schafer. In this play Joe was a man who in his former life had stolen some money. He is about to do the same thing again, when his better self in the form of his secretary appears to him and advises him not to do it, After some persuasion he heeds her plea and promises not to do it. The third one act play was the annual Christmas Play entitled What Men Live By. This play claimed as its characters the following: Matrena ............................................................,.

Dorothy Schmitt This was the story of an angel sent to earth to discover the three things by which men live. He discovered the first of these in Simon and his wife, that which dwelleth in man. Over the shoulder of the Baron he saw the Angel of Death, that which is not given to man to know. The third thing, whereby men live, was portrayed in Sonia Ivanitch, who car- ed for two children not her own. This play was entered in the city drama contest, staged at North Side March 5, in competition with plays from North Side and South Side as a part of the city Literature and Drama Week. A cup was given to the school which presented the best play. This award went to North Side. Clara Mae Guy was chosen the best individual actor from Central.
