There are in Central outstanding golfers and on Recognition Day they are presented with golf letters as a reward for their fine work. Then there were, last year, the boys who won the N .E. I. C. tennis championship and to these boys tennis letters were given. A very active club in Central is the Bcoster Club and each year on Re- cognition Day awards are given for outstanding students in this club. Last year Dick Millikan was awarded ?5lO from the Booster Club for outstanding work. This was a special award, given for the first time. The club that really works hard and needs much recognition is the Dram- atics Club or the Student Players Club. The very best dramatics students are given gold D 's.

And it was such a short time ago that we timidly Ecu made our entrance into this beloved building. In the first of our four auspicious years, we selected as leader of this illustrious class, Tom Miller, aided by Richard Pierce as vice-president,Joe Deck as secretary-treasurer, and Charlotte Uebelhoer, Helen Palmer, Ruth Murphy, and Joan Wolf as the social council. The class wisely chose as advisers, Miss Adams and Mr. Aldred. The two momentous activities consist- ed of a gala freshman party, coupled with the Freshman Frolic , staged on April Fool's Day. The graduates of 1935, as sophomores, ordained Herman Deck, president, Alois Derry, vice-president, James Kipfer, secretary-treasurer, and Robert McAleece, Betty Jane Merchant, Joe Deck, and Margie Bittler, social council. Miss Nielsen and Mr. Reising as advisers, were important factors in helping to augment the financial status of the class by means of the Sophomore Derby' and the Big Ten tea dance. We bestowed upon Vincent Carlson the honor of presidency for our third year and with Alois Derry, vice president, Robert McAleece, secretary-treas- urer, Charlotte Uebelhoer, Margie Bittler, Helen Palmer,Vera Rice, and James Kipfer, social council, and with the able advisers, Miss McKinnie aud Mr- Wyatt, carried our class through a most successful year. The J ack Frost Hop and the Iunior Prom were the outstanding features, with, of course, the choos' ing of the prom queen, Virginia Bash And at last, seniors. With Walter Byers as our leader, Herman Deck, vice-president, James Kipfer, secretary, and Alois Derry, Charlotte Uebelhoer, Winifred Mertz, Mary Aldred, Vincent Carlson, Dorothy Miller, Tom Miller, social council, we sponsored some noteworthy affairs. ln this final year our officers elected as worthy advisers, Miss Tonkel and Mr. Potterf. Our first event, the senior play, was a mystery, entitled Number17 . This was succeeded by the Senior-Caldron Vod-vil, exhibited in February. As our class reluctantly departs from its alma mater, we're looking forward with some sadness and pleasure to the annual baccalaure- ate service, commencement ritual, the commencement dance, and the com- mencement exercises.
