SENIURS ARE PUISED, CUNFIDENT Here we are Seniors-the finished product! Yes, our personalities are all made as far as dear old Central is concerned. Now let's just glance back over the four short years and recall the events and grand affairs that have helped to develop this certain something called personality. First of all, what are some of the opportunities offered to a little green Freshman that will help him to have a grand personality by the time he is a Senior? Class parties are a fine way to get acquainted. Joining the speech department, publications, Library Service Group, athletics, dramatics, just to mention a few activities, are roads leading to the fine city of personality. As Freshies we jumped right into the swing of things with a grand party planned by Bob Bienz, presidentg Harold Masursky, vice-president, Dorothy Davies, secretary-treasurerg and Louise Jean, Wanda Racine, Betty Lou Stetter, Robert Nash, Billie Ann Deatrick, Eulalia Bermes, Tom O'Rourke, Betty James, Rosemary Edelon, Byron Doenges, and Theodore Bakalar, social council. Of course they were assisted by Miss Virginia Kinnaird, whom we all consider as one of us because she has been our loyal adviser for these four happy years, and Mr. Robert Dornte. assistant athletic coach. We pushed bravely forward as Sophs in spite of being somewhat ignored. For a get acquainted affair, we had another party and also blossomed forth with a skating party that proved more successful than we had dared to hope. At least Miss Kinnaird and Mr. Russell Rowe, advisers, Harold Masursky, president, Byron Doenges, vice-president, Gloria Belle Temple, secretary-treasurer5 Bob Bienz, Dick Butler, julia Ann Cowan, Dorothy Davies, Marion Snyder, and Jane Ullery, social council members, were very pleased about it. Two years down and two more to go-so that means we're jolly Juniors with Byron Doenges, president, Dick Butler, vice-president, and Viola Kaiser, secretary- treasurer. These three together with Social Council Members Bob Bienz, Maxine Davis, Ruth Cottingham, Harold Masursky, and Ed Langas started our class activities with a bang in the form of the Victory Dance, which was the climax of our football season. Then came the highlight of highlights, Hawaiian Night, our Junior Prom, with Julia Ann Cowan reign- ing as queen. With a background of silhouetted palm trees, tropical gardens and an inviting grass shanty, the lovely queen with long golden tresses was crowned queen by Byron Doenges, Junior class president. Sarah Stettler, former queen, was the crown bearer, and Ed Langas made a dashing master of ceremonies. Colorful Hawaiian leis were presented to the dancers by the six attendants, Jean Arthur, Ruth Cottingham, Marilyn Heaston, Gloria Belle Temple, Jeanette Warner, and XVanda Racine. Personality-in-person dropped in for a few minutes in the form of Wayne King. The compliments of the XValtz King were much appreciated by the prom committees, who had made the cafeteria a veritable Hawaiian paradise. Seniors.-is it possible that we are on the last lap of our journey toward graduation? We've only one more Page N inet y-.tix
