On Cheer Leading's Their Job Central would not be Central without its boisterous bunch of cheer leaders to instill enthusiasm into the student body. Chuck Porter, Ray Ridpath, Frank Janorschke and Jim Curran form the quartet. These four varsity yell leaders have been ably coached by Mr. Howard Michaud, who in addition to this, has charge of all the pep sessions. Chuck and Ray are seniors and for the past three years have been urging on the student body to greater heights of mass vocalism. Ray has developed both nimbleness and rhythm. His favorite yell is Sapolio . Chuck , -with never-dying vim and vigor, is a familiar sight on the basketball floor, urging louder responses from the rooters. Frank made the varsity in his sophomore year and is a junior, as likewise is Jim, who made the varsity corps during the basketball season. These two have helped add fuel to the ever-burning enthusiasm of Central. Both are hard workers, and can be depended upon to start the ball rolling next fall. The two reserve yell leaders this year are Carl Lee and Salem Bashara. The former is a member of the junior class, the latter a senior. A large group of aspirants turned out this year for yell leading. Practices are held every Thursday after- noon in the auditorium. From this reserve material, Mr. Michaud hopes to draw good varsity material. e Hundred T
