There are many things Central students find to occupy their time. Some of these school-related activi- ties are continuing ones that continue from the past, through this year, and on into the future. Others are of a special nature but happen at least once each year. The most continuing experience for all Cetralites, past, present, and future, is that of learning. Although often taken for granted, this activity which begins in the classroom is the reason for the school ' s existence and it provides the basic structure for all other activity with- in the school. On these and the following pages are scenes and descriptions of the people, activities, organizations, and events which, when put together, made up life at Cen- tral, 1963-64. As the year passed through its eternal four seasons, each Centralite came nearer to moving up another rung on the ladder of life. During last summer they contemplated the year past and prepared for the year ahead. Herein the summer segment of the Caldron ' s story retells the events of 1963-64 in capsule form. In the fall a student ' s attention is drawn back to school life. And in the fall new students arrived at Central as freshmen or as sophomores. The Cal- dron ' s fall section reveals the faces of the incoming students and the opportuni- ties open to them as well as other fall events participated in by the entire school. Winter brings the dormant time of nature ' s growing activity, but it is a bustling time for Centtalites, especially for juniors and fans of Hoosier Hysteria, basketball. In springtime students ' thoughts turn to the end of school. But seniors spend some of this time being sure of having everything in order to graduate as well as of soon commencing a new life be- yond high school. I :. Above: Friday nii;ht dances that the various clubs put on for the students are always chaperoned by parents of the club members. Here a group of chaperones watch students dance. Mr. Paul SpuUer, principal, listens as Rick Hawthorne accepts the nomina- tion for senior class president. Rick. sophomore class president, wanted to repeat the oflice as a senior.

September brought many new Cen- tralites from the city junior high schools, the smell of brand new, colorful text- books, and unusually hot weather to Cen- tral to begin the 1963-64 school year. Beginning the new school term was offset by learning class schedules and locker combinations, receiving new text- books, and meeting new classmates. Among the new faces was Dr. Carl Bickley, the new athletic director; and Mr. Edward Schlecht, became boys ' dean. Principal Paul SpuUer welcomed 1274 enrolled Centralites and the faculty to another busy academic and extra-cur- ricular year in Tigerland. Friday night dances resumed with the traditional back-to-school dance, where everyone could dance, talk, and m a k e friends. One of the classes ' first activities was to elect their class officers that would lead them through the year ' s activities. One at a time, the classes assembled in the auditorium for nominations, followed by a week of campaigning, then voting. Getting back into the academic swing of school life, all students had at least one study hall a day or its equivalent. It wasn ' t long before everybody got used to where and when they had classes. New teachers v ere Miss Phyllis Blake- man, Mrs. Ann Fordeck, and Mrs. Ellen Rhodes. New textbooks and new facili- ties also added enthusiasm to learning. Sports-inclined Tigers participated in cross country runs and football games to begin the fall sports. Tiger fans followed the sports events through the rain, snow, and cold, cheering the thinliclads and teams on to victories. Junior Leonard Hairston. Tiger quartei- back, is shown as he was brought down in the Bishop Luers contest by two Knigh: players. Luers won by a 2V6 count.

Keeping in step with the Oaober at- mosphere, the sophomore class had its after-school class party, Autumn Magic. This class activity provided a time for classmates to meet and get aquainted, while dancing and listening to favorite rock ' n ' roll top tunes.

The Parent-Teacher As- sociation sponsored Back to School night, inviting the students ' parents to come to school and to see the remodeled gyms. Parents gathered in homerooms in place of their sons or daughters and attended shortened class periods. This provided a chance for parents and teach- ers to get together and see the school. Among Central ' s many visitors were principals and superintendents of the North Central Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges. This year Central hosted the NCA meeting in October. Superintendents and principals o f var- ious schools had a forum to discuss mat- ters of mutual concern and visited many of the classrooms and talked to teachers and students. Altogether.

November found Centralites busy and active. As darkness veiled Tigeriand ear- lier, this didn ' t stop Central ' s Tigers as they came early and stayed late, working and learning. This month was set off from each ' s memories as a month of thanksgiving and sad tragedy. As fall fell into the path of winter, many were busy with getting ready for next spring, as they did the fall planting. Central ' s grounds sported 40 new plants as Pro ject Green was underway for the second consecutive year. Sponsored by the Student Council, Project Green was made possible by the student body ' s support, which further identified Central High School as one of downtown Fort Wayne ' s garden spots. Basketball being synonomous with No- vember brought the Hoosier Hysteria ' to Tigeriand as Tigers played their games at North Side, the Coliseum, and away. Also, new to Central ' s tradition. Tigers hosted three basketball games in their own gym, against New Haven, Warsaw, and Peru. Almost every Friday night students, fa- culty, and parents gather for a night of visiting and dancing at the club-sponsored dances. Clubs take turns decorating and planning dances for the student body One of the highlights of this month was the Thanksgiving program. Filled with sadness, as were the many people over the land over the sudden assassina- tion of the late President Kennedy, Cen- tralites paid tribute to him and were thankful for their many blesmgs, par- ticipating in the New World asserrbly in the boys ' gym. Centralites were no: only acquainted with academic and extra- curricular activities but also spiritual and national feeling in November. lames Simmons stands near a mckei dis play and rehearses his lines for the Thanks giving program.

Snow-covered grounds and lights that seemed to be always lighting the win dows of Central revealed the constant busy activity of Tigerland in December Beginning the month with enthusiasm the Bengals dedicated the new gym ' at the New Haven basketball game. Enthusiastic drama students, first- timers and old-hands at acting on stage, presented the Class of 1965 ' s Tiger House, as a class project. Students en- joyed the comedy-stylized mystery as quite an experience. All will remember when Central was visited by the distinguished United States Senator Birch Bayh, junior senator from Indiana. He stressed the importance of young men and women getting a formal education to be able to take responsibili- ty for running the government. Getting ready for the holidays, stu- dents and teachers decorated the rooms, put up decorated trees in the main office, library, and cafeteria, and played Christ- mas music in the library and music rooms. Each year Centralities participate in the Christmas Basket Program for the needy. Mr. Birch Bayh, Indiana ' s junior senator, gives a speech at a general assembly. Richard Arbaugh, Bill Etzler, and Patty Mt- Cormick do a scene together.

Caldron sales campaign ended and the deadline was met after everyone came from Christmas vacation. Sales totaling 981 were made for the fifty-first volume, as Cindy Dill, editor-in-cheif, and Don Ertel, assistant editor, met the first year- book deadlines. Trying something new instead of the senior banquet, the seniors had a senior reception. This informal reception gave the parents, teachers, and students a chance to get better acquainted. Senior class officers, sponsors, homeroom teach- ers, and teachers received the guests to the blue and white decorated cafeteria. Central hosted the annual Northeastern Indiana Schol Band, Orchestra, and Vocal Association music contest. Over 100 schools were represented, participating in the competition in twenty-five rooms. Parent-Teachers Association sponsored a donkey basketball game as a surprise to the student body one night after school, in the boys ' gym. Central ' s coaches and coaches from other schools made up the cage squads. Central ' s oldest club. Math Club, cele- brated its fiftieth anniversary, by spon- soring its dance, Golden Triangle. The club also started a new era of providing music for the Friday night dances by having the Counts, an instrumental group, play instead of having records. New to Central ' s tradition, the senior. ' ; had a reception instead ot their usual banquet. The reception in the cafeteria cave the seniors a chance to get together and talk over their past and future. Pai ' l? Jetmore and Sherry Kreigh were there to serve punch to seniors who wished to have something to drink.

Centralites quickened their pace as activities came into the light and kept them busy. Keeping in spirit with Febru- ary, the Booster Club sponsored the Queen of Hearts 1964 Valentine pep session. Raggedy dolls, clowns, toymakers, and all upheld the Valentine spirit as the athletes came from the audience to get their annua l boxes of candy, in the red and white decorated gym. Cupid in Motion, the Valentine dance, was sponsored by the Art Club in observance of Valentine ' s Day. Vickie Conn and Phil Pearson were crowned as queen and king after a dance contest in which the two participated. Class of 1964 presented its class play, Alas, Babylon, to a very responsive au- dience. The thrill-packed play centered around a posible nuclear war, which was very well executed and presented as a third world war. Columnist and former Central gradu- ate, Dr. George Crane, a nationally-syn- dicated newspaper columnist, spoke to the students in an assembly on the topic, Be a Good Ape. Covering a variety of topics, his main thought was urging students to continue their formal educa- tion. Herb Banet led the Bengals in his last sectional with spirit, hustle, and team- work. By defeating Huntertown, Centra! Catholic, and North Side, Banet ' s Bengals took the sectional. Queen of Hearts Brenda Mieike declares that whoever will make her laugh will he given the crown of hearts.

With the basketball season encling, the Bengals brought home the sectional crown for Coach Herb Banet, who was leaving Central ' s coaching staff after 18 years as heaci coach. Each year changes are made and give way to the new. Coach Herb Banet re- signed as coach to take another important post. He has been head coach at Central for 18 years, only one of them being a losing season, as he led the Bengals on from one victory to another. Now the snidents turned back to give their full attention to their studies as the Hoosier Hysteria subsided for another year and another season. Here at Tiger- land, one could find students studying al- most anywhere during their lunch hours. After clearing away the lunch trays in the cafeteria, students find time for studying before their next class, time for some discussion of last period ' s class as- signment, and time to tell the latest jokes.

Color- fully dressed students presented their pro- gram over the PA system while the stu- dent body was attentive in the classrooms. Always a laughing and fun time, each year the Caldron staff sponsors the Poor Man ' s Prom, a mock of the Junior Prom that follows it in May.

Since Never Never Land was cho- sen as the setting, decorations consisted of the main four scenes. To the left of the waterfall scene the queen ' s throne was a huge open sea-shell covered with white satin. Through the window scene, couples could see a beautiful ship float- ing by on a cloud. So that the prom-goers could complete the fantasy atmosphere, couples could dance and sit around the treasure chest and the Little Boys ' Home, surrounded by tall trees.

Centralites pre- pared to meet new horizons as June swept over the skies at 224 East Lewis Street, ending another school term. Scholarship Banquet, Recognition Pro- gram, Senior Dance, and graduation ac- tivities culminated a busy year for stu- dents. Every one sensed a feeling of sat- isfaction in being recognized for ful- filling a part of their formal education and were inspired to continue it. Students of Central making the Dean ' s List or Honor Roll were honored at the Scholarship Banquet with their parents and teachers. Mrs. William Rastetter, guest speaker, chose as her topic, Look for the Stars. Seniors, garbed in caps and gowns, and the underclassmen assembled in the cafeteria on Recognition Day to com- plete another academic year.

Centralites leave their summer vacation activities and return to school hen the trees start turning to colors of gold, red, and purple. Brightly colored, abundant, new textbooks, a new- ly remodeled gym, and a prolonged sum- mer accented the beginning of the fall semester this year. New freshmen and sophomores, along with the upperclassmen, entered Central to explore and to discover new classes and facilities, teachers, friends, and ex- periences. Three buildings, room num- bers and locker combinations, and the throughways by the overpass were, at first, pu ;zling. These new Centralities began their courses in general, vocational, business, and college preparatory classes. They had classes in speech, foreign language, home economics, physical education, health, shop, ;:nd others. There were also surh clubs as Forum Club, Student Council, Rifle Club, Boosters, and GAA to join. Students began doing some of their studying in the newly air-conditioned library. Service workers were assigned to help the various teachers. Central ' s first pep session was in the not-then-completed boys ' gym; it was completed for the physical education classes in October. This new atmosphere, with a slight aroma of paint, gave the Tigers new enthusiasm. Loyal Centralites supDorted the football team through its less-than-average 2-7-0 season. Also, the cross country enthusiasts cheered the harriers on t o victory. Around the city, the trees were en- veloped in various rich colors; people changed their activities to meet another season — fall. Centralites returned to school to begin another school term. They enrolled in various classes, cheered at the pep sessions in the remodeled gym, were active in organizations, and sup- ported the athletes and extra-curricular activities This was fall at Central 1963.

Industrial cries for skilled workers can be heard loud and clear throughout Fort Wayne and the United States. Central is doing her part this year, as every year, to meet the cries and demands of the industries. Many young men graduate each year from Central ' s modern Industrial Department to serve the industrial world. Each of these young men is skilled and expertly equipped with knowledge concerning management of various industrial machinery. General shop, auto, drafting, electricity, machine, woods, and welding are the many courses within the department Each of these courses is taught with the most modern equipment available. The Thermofax machine for re- producing, and equipment for auto, drafting, machine, and welding have been purchased by the department this year to aid in teaching these necessary courses. All of the courses are non-elective- Revision of sub- ject matter is presented to up date the course of study. The auto shop is the only such course of study within the Fort Wayne area. It is therefore most evident that the Industrial De- partment IS certainly valuable to Fort Wayne as well as the country. Mr. Todd, head of the Industrial Depart- ment, states the position of the department most ac- curately, to offer a variety of industrial education courses that will meet the needs of the students and community with the best possible staff and facilities. Mr. Todd Mr. Welbaum Larry Andrews and Mr. George Surber work on the body of a car in auto shop. This course in mechanics is offered to junior and senior boys. Modern equipment aids students in shop classes Ralph Cox is operating one of the machines that the shop classes have for boys who are interestel in different machinery. Dave Jump works steadily on one of the many proiects which Mr. Alvis offers in general shop class. Faye Phelan and Joyce Early concoct a culinary delicacy during home ec class.

Home economics students learn better family living What to fix for dinner, how to use an iron, what color to wear, and how to hold a baby are what the home economic students ask their teachers. During the year ' s different activities and projects, the students prepare nutrition-filled meals and learn the use and care of electrical appliances and how to tailor clothing. Teachers stress good posture and good grooming. Some of the girls practice good posture when preparing fur- ther for the future. Girls take turns learning how to feed, cate, bathe, and dress a baby by practicing with dolls. Home Economics certainly enables a girl to become a fine housekeeper, mother and seamstress. Family living, one of the home ec courses, is taken by many girls. D(5nna Mace, Parry Aynessazian, and Gloria Madison yfuCtice bathing a baby.

Spanish literature can be seen on the bulletin board. Forci t n hiuguages offered at Central are French, Span- ish, and Latin. Each student on the college prep course must take two years of one language. Latin classes are conducted by Miss Baumgartner. Translating of such classic literature as Caeiar and Jason itnd the Aeroganaut! is helpful in learning the Latin language to proficiency. French classes translate many new songs, magazines, and short stories. Popular songs prove to be a challenge. Miss Fisher conducts the classes. Spanish classes, as the French classes, are translating many stories, classics, and separate sentences. Mr. Baugh- man instructs the students in Spanish- Foreign language classes help to add to the cultural, as well as the intellectual, background of students at Central. To be able to speak and understand more than one language is most important in the world where higher education is necessary to understand the prob- lems of other nations as well as the United States.

Also, the tape recorder, helpful to the student for voice analysis and self criticism, has been purchased as a new means of learning. Speech courses consist of fundamentals of speaking, advanced speech, discussion, debate, parlimentary pro- cedure, radio and television speech, and interpretation semantics. Psychology of persuasion is a new course and is being offered this year. More emphasis has been placed upon individual speech problems and projects. Speech courses help students over- come timidity and gain self-confidence. Most important, speech gives students practice in organizing and present- ing effective oral communication. While Judy Taylor makes her speech in speech class, Lee Mollison and Gene Fulmore write down their criticisms about the speech.

Army. purposes of society as springboard for better citizenship Mr. Venderly is showing Faye Phelan, Tony Woods, and Jim Thomas pamphlets about college to help them plan fot the future. Special classes aim to provide the student with ade- quate material which will form a foundation of civic knowledge comparable to the present conditions. United States history is stressed in order to acquaint the student with our heritage and the purpose of his becoming a functioning, useful citizen. Our historical background serves as an incentive to do our best not only in school work but in our future vocations. Orientation classes serve as a spring-board for fresh- men to understanding our place in society and to help them adjust to the many levels in which each and every one should care to choose. Because students of Central live in an environment of constant change, they must be introduced to such studies that enable them to understand the changes and the problems accompanying the changes. For this reason, orientation and the special classes strive to help fresh- men to obtain a greater knowledge of their government and country, so that they may understand the changes. Philip Pearson, freshman class president, is seen admiring for- mer President Dwight Eisenhower in orientation class. Library provides pleasant atmosphere for learning Librarian Dorothy Vallance ' s assistants Linda Koehl and Dorothy Dailey check out books for students as part of their duties in the library.

Bottom: Rick Tielker examines a book before checking it out. Library is a quier, mcxlern rerreat for students who otherwise would be in the study hall. These students find helpful information at their fingertips every period of the day. Mrs. Vallance is the librarian at Central. Like most women, she enjoys a change in decor every once in a while; this, the library dons new, beautiful, and un- usually enchanting decoration on the dcxars, tables, and walls each week. Decorations are not the library ' s only assets, however. New books that contribute to the stu- dents ' constant search for knowledge arrive each week. These books offer new ideas and challenges. Many books are drawn from the library each day for reference, enjoyment, and serious study. An entirely new world is open to a student through books- Students go to the library to get books, do their studies, or seek extra information. Here students are concen- trating hard in the quiet library. Lucille M.

' Sound body, sound mind ' helps Centralites toward goal A sound minci and a sound body go hand in hand was the general philosophy of the health, physical educa- tion, and drivers training classes this year. Health classes concentrated on the mental and physical cleanliness of the body. Health courses also teach one how to take care of the biKiy through exercise, proper diet, and cleanliness. Physical educational courses consist of volleyball, kin- ball, Softball, tumbling, and dancing Bowling, rope skip- ping, and table tennis are newly added activities of de- velopment- A film projector, skipping ropes, and new records are a few of the educational media purchased this year. Drivers training is a course offered one six weeks to y lane health students. This course prepares future drivers to observe traffic laws, traffic signs, and conditional safety. The Drivotrainer is used by students as a means to learn by experience. Mental alertness is most neces- sary to succeed in becomming a good, safe driver.

John Hopkins, Jim Whitt, and Mr. George Tricolas examine the sweatshirts sold by Student Council. Student Council encourages school improvement 42 Many wise people believe that the best way to help people is to help themselves- That is, in effect, what the Student Council does when it improves Central by en- couraging the students to improve themselves. In order to do this, students elect representatives from their home- rooms. These students meet every other Monday during first period. Student Council members were busy this year. Some of their activities included a state convention, the an- nual Christmas basket program, and a student survey. They also provided ushers for assemblies, flowers for the memorial, and the booster signs which frequently appear in front of the office. Student Council ' s most important contribution for this year was Project Green, a project to beautify Cen- tral by adding to the shrubbery around the lawns. Other money-making projects were the Student Council dance on March 20 and the sale of Central sweatshirts- This year. Student Council was under the auspices of Mr. George Tricolas. Officers were John Hopkins, president; Leonard Easterly, vice-president; Jim Whitt, sargeant-at-arms; and Margaret McCormick, secretary.

Ten Bienzmen on all-city team liiglilig lits varsity ' s season Although the record doesn ' t indicate it, Paul Bienz led his varsity football squad through a fairly good sea- son. Elkhart ' s Blue Blazers, No. 1 team in the state, was the only team to have the Tigers down from the first period. The Tigers won two games during the season while dropping seven. Ten men being elected to all-city team was the high- light of the season. Two men were elected to the first team, one to the second team, and seven made honor- able mention. George James, at guard, and Harry Whited, at end, were the two boys elected to the first team. Bob Barnett, the Bengal ' s other end, was placed on the second team. New Haven knocked off Central to begin the season, 12-7. Next, the Redskins, eventual city champs, squeezed by the Tigers 7-6. Central was on the 11-yard line late in the last period, but a key interception stifled the team ' s liopes of a game-winning touchdown. Penn ' s talented Kingsmen were the next foe for the Bienzmen. As in previous encounters, tlie game was lost in the last period. On the disastrous trip to Elkhart a few Central fans saw the Bengals trounced, 54-0. South Side then invaded the Tiger lair and the Bengals showed no signs of being down after the Elkhart team. They got their first win of the season by whitewashing the Archers, 19-0. Then came a heart-breaker to downtown rival Central Catholic, as the Irish topped the Bengals 13-6. The Tigers were ahead in all phases until the third period when two, long touchdown runs gave the Irish a victory. The Tigers then went to Trojanland to take on the winless Elmhurst team. The Trojans kept with the Ben- gals through the first three periods and it looked as if they would pull a big upset. However, a last period touchdown by Central iced the contest at 20-6, and Elm- hurst was handed their 25th straight defeat. City runner-up Bishop Luers was Central ' s next op- ponent, and had it not been for some costly injuries, the Bengals might have won. The season ended on a sad note as the fans braved cold weather to see Concordia ' s Cadets grind out a 20-7 verdict over the Bengals. An 89-yard touchdown pass highlighted the game for the Cadets and the play seemed to take the spirit out of the Central team.

In the first two encounters, the Tigers led 19-0 and 27-0 over New Haven and Concordia and stretched their unbeaten string to three games by crushing the Irish from C.C, 26-6. Bishop Luers was the first opponent to test the re- serve squad; they battled to a scoreless tie. Central then met Concordia ' s Cadets and came out on top by a 26-6 Freshman halfback Eli Grant stores another touchdown on a 2 pitch- out against New Haven as blocker Mike Mines leads the play. South Side then white-washed Central, 13-0. before Elmhurst fell to the Tigers, 20-6. The Tigers dropped ball games to C.C, 26-7, and North Side, 13-7. Defeating South in the last game gave the team an even season. They won over the Archers by a score of 7-6.

Getting acquainted with the buildings, rooms and lockers com- binations, and schedules were just a few of the new things to learn and know. Beginning with the class officer nominations, class pro- jects were underway. Freshmen assembled in the audi- torium to experience for the first time in nominating, ac- cepting, voting. Classmates chose Phillip Pearson, president; Bonita Chandler, vice-president; and Yvonne Howard, secretary, to lead the class through their first year of activities. To give the freshmen an opportunity to meet their classmates, they had an after-school dance, Snoball, in the cafeteria in November. Here, they had a chance to talk and dance to their favorite hit records. In April the freshmen had another dance, April Showers, to lound-out their special activities. Members of the Class of 1967 had an academic and social-filled year, which is part of the growth in becom- ing well-rounded individuals and better, useful citizens in the years to come.

There were many new- phases for these 371 sophomores to discover and achieve, as part of their year ' s activities at Central this year. Like the freshmen, the sophomores ttX)k their turn in the process of choosing their class officers. After a week of campaigning, the students voted for their choice in homerooms. Class officers were Clyde Williams, presi- dent; Ernest Calland, vice-president; and Shirley Love, secretary. Sophomores got into the swing of things as class schedules became a matter of daily assignments. Acting out plays in English on the stage to solving math prob- lems were all part of the agenda Now the sophomores were beginning to think of the future plans for further formal education as they planned their class schedules accordingly.

Many came early and stayed late working on various activities and projects. Hoosier Hysteria was in full swing. At the pep sessions, varsity and reserve cheerleaders led cheering Centralites in the yells. Tiger Tango, Big Beat, We ' ve Got the Best Team, Beat Em, Great Combination, Go, Tigers, Go, were among the favorites. Many of the yells were written by Centralites for this purpose. Lettermen and Twirlers also were ac- tive. At pep sessions and during game half-times, twirlers, in their blue and white uniforms, executed many intricate patterns. Marching Tigerettes, led by head majorette Cheryl Tilker, entertained basketball fans at all of Central ' s home games. Lettermen were usually seen at games sporting their jackets. One of the facets of their organization is to promote sportsmanship. Class participation and daily home- work are part of the life of the Central- ite. To help him become a well-rounded individual, he chose to participate in many of the extra-curricular activities. Central has over thirty clubs. Active juniors have time for all sorts of fun and work in such activities as Anthony Wayne Club, Art Club, FBLA, and FTA. Different departments presented stu- dents with vocational and cultural views. Many business students were busy with such things as shorthand, typing, and business law to help them after high school. Along with the academic was the cultural. During fifth period, those pass- ing in the halls near the choir and band rooms would hear spirituals, folk songs, popular hits to quick-paced marches, sym- phonies, and rock ' n ' roll. Music students in band and choir and those in the Music Department became well-acquainted with the various types of music pieces.

Who ' s got the best team. ' ' Ask that question of the cheerleaders and they ' ll quickly say, ' We ' ve got the best teaml Although the cheerleaders always seem to be well organized and efficient at pep sessions and games, they require hours of grueling practice under the guidance of Miss Margaret Scheumann. Every Thursday at 3 ; 50 one can see and hear the cheerleaders at practice. In a cheerleader there must be traits of honesty, leadership, average grades, and most of all, high morals. Miss Scheumann states that these traits are essential to a good cheerleader- This year ' s varsity cheerleaders were Jackie Rembert, Louie Imbody, Jim Johnson, Nancy Caudill, Nancy Tie- man, and Linda Englebrecht. The man in the tiger suit was Leonard Easterly. This year ' s reserve cheerleaders, under the supervision of reserve squad leader Carolyn Chambers, were Darlene Adams, Linda Koehl, Carol Hampton, Madeline Hines, George Snook. John Meyers. At a football game held at North Side, Jim Johnson and Louie Imbody get ready to jump m a cheer for the Tigers. Marching Tigerettes always add color with new routines Flashing batons and gleaming white boots are the trademark of Central ' s Marching Tigerettes. Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Edna Chester and Mr. Roland Stell- horn, these high-stepping girls perform their tricky twirling routines during half-time at home basketball and football games. In addition to all the practicing the twirlers must do, they also must have regular business meetings. These are held on the first and third Tuesday of each month. At these meetings they discuss ways of raising money, their annual picnic in May at one of the city parks, and the practical details which concern any efficiently run organization. This year the Tigerettes sold Tiger mas- tots, stationery, calendars, and other items in an effort to raise money. Officers who served the twirlers this year were Jane Scheppele, president; Frances Summers, vice-president; Rochelle Curry, secretary; Andrea Zimmerman, treasurer; and Norma Hides, historian. This year ' s head majorette who planned the beautif ul routines that they did at pep sessions and games was Cheryl Tilker. Her helpers were co-assistants Rochelle Curry and Andrea Zimmerman.

The action occurred in the sectional basketball scoring record with 103 points in new ' gym Symbolic of the 1964 Sectional Crown, a beautiful trophy more than made up for the fact that Central ' s liters, coached by Herb Banet, lost their City Series crown. Other highlights of the season were a new city scoring record, a seven-game win skein, and the naming of Gene Wash to the All-City squad. Elmhurst was the ferst opponent for the Bengals and they sent the Banetmcn down to their first defeat in the Trojan gym by a 10-point margin. The Irish of Central Catholic came into Tigerland and almost pulled out a victory in the last seconds. Central then disposed of North Side as they laced the Redskins in a well-played game at the Coliseum. New Haven provided the opposition in the first game to be played in the remodeled gym. The Tigers came through for the standing-room only crowd as they came from behind. Their three-game win streak was halted as the Banetmen fell before a hot Crispus Attucks quintet in a battle of the Tigers. The team traveled to Marion, but the Giants proved lo be too rough for the Tigers. A new city scoring record was established when the Warshaw Tigers met the Central quintet in the Cen- tral gym. A very enthusiatic crowd cheered the Banet- men on and went wild when Bill Harper put the team over the century mark. This victory started the team on their long win streak. Over Christmas vacation, the team went to Goshen for the Holiday Tournament. After dis- posing of Concord ' s Minutemen in a tense and close contest, the Tigers edged the Redskins from Goshen for the championship game. It appeared as if Goshen might win, but a last-second basket iced the contest for Central. Jimmy Johnson is not tlit only Central fan going wild at the thrilling Anderson game ' hich Central won 84-82. Peru ' s Tigers were the last team to meet the Banetmen in the Central gym. The Bengals made it a clean sweep in the new gym by breezing past their foe. No one ex- pected Central to stand a chance in their next game, as the Anderson Indians ' No. 2 team in the state came to town. With a huge crowd at the North gym, Banet ' s players came through in great style as they turned back Anderson in coming back from a half-time deficit. A sixth game was added to the streak the next night as Llwood ' s Panthers were routed in their own gym. South Side gave the Bengals a real scare in the follow- ing contest, but Central turned back the Archers in a slow-moving deliberate game. Concordia played the act of spoiler as they stopped the win streak at seven games. The Tigers played c.ne of their best games, but Con- cordia was a little bettet. However, it took the Cadets two overtimes to nip the Banetmen in a real barn-burner on the Cadets ' new flocr. This victory helped the Con- cordia team in the city as they eventually tied the Tro- jans for the city crown. Bishop Luers fell before the Tigers in another high-scoring contest. Elkhart ' s Blue Blazers walloped the Central squad as they held up to their No. 10 rating by beating the Tigers. North Side dropped their second decision to the Banetmen in the campaign as the Tigers got their twelfth victory. Another road trip ended in defeat as Richmond ' s Red Devils turned back the Bengals. South avenged their earlier loss as they built up a quick lead and maintained it. The regular season ended on a sour note as the Tigers lost an early lead and v ere dropped by Central Catholic. After a big send-o T into the Sectional in the form of a pep session. Central wrote another Sectional Crown into history. The first game saw Huntertown ' s Wildcats put up a great battle before falling to Central. An after- noon contest the next day pitted the Banetmen against the Irish once again, but the tables were turned on Cen- tral Catholic as the Bengals took a l6-point victory. North ' s Cinderella squad battled Central all the way in the championship game. With deliberate tactics, North appeared to be a winner until Bob Hopson ' s late free throws doused the Redskin ' s efforts in one of the best-played games of the year. However, Garrett ' .s tall Railroaders were on the right track in the Regional contest. They ran up a large lead in the first part of the game, but Central fought back gallantly. They gained a tie after a long struggle and the fans sensed that the Tigers might pull this one out of the fire. But the height disadvantage proved too much for the Banetmen as they went down to defeat. Gene Wash, Preston Underwood, Rich Stevenson, Nate Banks, Kim Cress, and Bob Hopson, all seniors, com- pleted their last year on the squad. The other members of the team included Jim Whitt, Rick Tielker, Herman Williams, Marzine Moore, Amos VanPelt, Bill Harper. 75 Rick Tielker goes up for a shot against El wood as Beasley hopelessly looks on.

Banet quits coaching after 18 years at helm Mr. Herb Banet. head baskerball mentor for 18 years, resigned from his position as head coach after the 19( ' 4 tourneys. He will remain at Central in a teaching capac- it} ' . as will his exploits on the hardwood remain in the record books Central ' s Adult Booster Club honored Mr. Banet with a public testimonial dinner in the school cafeteria April 23. Mr. Hilliard Gates, radio and television sportscaster. was master-of-ceremonies for the event. Mr. Banet came to Central as an assistant to Murray Mendenhall when the Tigers took state in 1943. After a rwo-year stint in the armed forces, he again returned as assistant in 1945-46. He became head basketball and football coach during the 1946 season and remained as football coach for 6 years and basketball coach for 18 years. During his reign as King Coach on the Central basketball scene, his basketball teams compiled a 270-131 record. His football elevents, over a six-year stint, had a 34-22-5 slate. His basketball teams won eight seaionals. five regionals, and a semi-state crown. His career ended in sn ' le as the Bengals copped the sectional championship this year.

This department teaches the basic fundamental structure behind each type of government in existence. Most important, social sciences deal with the democratic form of government — how, by whom, and why it operates. World history is taught by Mr. Still. World history is usually taken by sophomores as an elective, non-required course. This course deals with the growth of civilizations, their government, and people. The Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, Congress, and the main events throughout the life of the United States make up an interesting, profitable study of United States history- This course of study begins with the landing of the Pilgrims and continues through our country ' s history up to the present time. Current newspapers, news articles, and leaflets are studied through- out the course so that the students gain knowledge of current events as well as the history of our nation. Government is a course taken by all high school sen- iors. In this course seniors become familiar with the form of government under which they live. This knowl- edge gained is a benefit to them as they embark upon careers of their own after graduation Students have a choice of taking either economics or sociology in their senior year. Economics is a study of the economic conditions of our nation and countries throughout the world. Living and living life profitably is studied in sociology classes. Lett.

Is the kiln hot? Where did you put the grout? Would you please stand still so I can at least draw an outline? That ' s the frustrated atmosphere in the art rooms every day of the school year. This does not hinder the stu- dents ' ability to learn, however. To increase the students ' artistic qualities, new equip- ment such as the laszlo press and the large silk screen frames have been purchased by the Art Department. This new equipment is used by many students in the art courses. The eight courses that are offered are sketch- ing, crafts, lettering and posters, figure drawing, ad- vanced, and independent study. Two new art classes, graphics art and art theory and history, were also offered this year. These courses try to meet the needs of the art majors and the non art majors by providing basic art concepts, skills, and vo- cabularies- The prime objective of art classes is to help the stu- dent realize that art has a meaningful and important part in every person ' s life.

Wherever one turns in the halls of Central, one can see that the members of Art Club are living up to their aim and having fun while doing it. Besides their service to the school, this busy group found time to see slides, hear talks by other art teachers, and revise the Art Club Consitution. Highlights of the regular meetings were a painting session, led by Miss Blakeman, and a demonstration of an egg tree- Rose Genda and Shirley Moffett set up a display for Art Club m the basement.

Under the direction of Mr. Wetzel and Mr. Stellhorn, concert choir and band give three con- certs during the school year. These concerts are open to the students and the public and are certainly enjoyed by all. Two concert snare drums, a tape recorder, one pair of cymbals, and madrigal books are examples of new equip- ment purchased by the Music Department this year. This equipment aids the music students in producing fine choral and orchestra music. Mr. William Wetzel, choir directu ' -. helps several members of Central ' s Concert Choir.

The band played numbers from Broadway shows and from different countries for a variety of music. Central ' s Fighting Tiger concert and marching band were busy playing aJl sorts of music from classical to popular hits. Play- ing at concerts, football and basketbal games, pep sessions, and parades was part of this year ' s schedule. Clarinet section is an important part of a band. It helps create rhythm and bring out the melody of a song. Anita Hubartt, Linda McCray, and Susan Wolf are three of these many players. concerts, special programs Strains of classical music, old melodies, fast marches, and popular tunes could be heard as one passed Room 150 during the fifth period noon hour. Practicing good finger exercise was only a part of the band members ' schedule, for they learned and marched to different rou- tines during the football season, marched in parades, and played at several concerts. Where did you put the drum sticks. Where do we get the plumes and braids. ' Did someone copy the music lor the half-time? These were a few of the many ques- tions asked before a preformance. Most often, band mem- bers wore their winter blue uniforms when they played at an event. Playing at concert was only one of the band ' s activi- ties. At home games band members backed up Tiger cheering with music in the form of marches and musical cheers. They were also behind the team in support at the pep sessions.

At some functions Centralettes, Harmonettes, and Centralairs represented the choir, instead of the choir as a whole. Fifth period was a musically-inclined time with the choir singing in Room 154 and the band playing in Room 150. Centralites going to lunch and eating lunch may be serenaded by a waltz and a spiritual. Late last spring, just before school was dismissed for the summer, the choir cut a record called Central ' s Concert Choir Sings. Choir members pushed their sales with enthusiasm as one of their special projects Choir director Mr. William Wetzel, with the help of the choir officers, Michelle Cook, president; Welton Moore, vice-president; Carolyn Dixie, secretary; and Judy Taylor, treasurer, led the group through a busy and interesting singing season. rr- Harmonettes Leann Cook, Judy Taylor, Michelle Cook, and Sandy Eicher sing at the Easter program held in the gym on Good Friday.

Business Department offers three major courses of study — general branch, clerical branch, and the stenog- raphic branch. The business courses train many young men and women for jobs each year. To broaden the edu- cation of young people is the main aim of the Business Department this year. Six new Underwood typewriters and one Remington electric typewriter have been purchased by the Business Department as a means of better, modern learning. The Jubilee Method in shorthand is the most important new textbook in the department. Such courses as consumer education, typing, and busi- ness law are offered to juniors on the general branch and the clerical branch- Shorthand is offered to juniors whose course of study is in the stenographic branch. Sales, busi- ness arithmetic, business review, clerical practice, typing, and shorthand are courses offered to seniors on general, clerical, and stenographic branches. Nancy Roberts, Tom Evans, and Jackie Adams are timed as they type a lesson from their text books in class. Joy Taylor and Maryann Smith are instructed as to how to run a mimeo- graph machine by Mr. Windmiller during clerical practice class.

In order to become a mem- ber, a student must be recommended by one of the teachers in the Business Department. Meetings are on the third Thursday of each month. To test their business sense and money-making ability, FBLA members had several bake sales this year as well as their annual dance. This year their dance, Rudolph ' s Rendezvous, was December 6. FBLA meetings featured guest speakers from Inter- national Business College and the National Secretary ' s Association. The May meeting was, as usual, a get-to- gether for old grads. This year ' s officers were Nancy Caudill, president; Brenda Mielke, vice-president; Sarah Rasor, secretary; Judy Roberts, treasurer; and Clara Imbody, reporter; first semester; and Sarah Rasor, president; Joicelyn March, vice-president; Linda McCray, secretary; Clara Imbody, treasurer; Willa Steenman, reporter, second semester.

There are many answers to this question, but the best place to find the best answer is at a meeting of the Future Teachers of America. This group, under the sponsorship of Mrs. Sara Carithers, meets the first Wednesday of every month to learn about the opportunities and responsibilities of the teaching profession. FTAers learn about teaching from films, discussion, guest speakers, and FTA conventions. This year ' s guest speakers included the student teachers who came to Cen- tral and Dr. Carl Bickly, athletic director. There were two FTA conventions this year; the fall convention in Indianapolis was attended by President Buzz Neamon. The spring convention, also in Indian- apolis, was attended by the officers. Buzz Neamon, presi- dent; Margaret McCormick, vice-president; and Barbara Schoppman, secretary. A meeting at ELmhurst High School was attended by the sponsors, president, and secre- tary.

Rochelle Curry, Bill Etzler, and Candy Roberts were elected president, vice-president, and secretary, respective- ly, as one of the first things on their class agenda. One of the two major p rojects for the juniors this year was their class play. Members of the Class of 1965 presented Tiger House, their first major event of the year. Laid around an isolated country estate called Mys- tery Mansion, because of the alledged hauntings, en- thusiastic students executed the three-act mystery-comedy. Long-awaited, juniors planned and attended their Jun- ior Prom. With the theme, Three Coins in a Fountain, pinks and whire accented the atmosphere. Queen Cindy Yarman reigned with her attendants-in-waiting Anita Adams, Dorothy Chambers, Linda Edmonds, Lorine Har- ris, Norma Hides, Sherry Kreigh, Linda McCray, and Candy Roberts. Couples danced to the music of Jim Wheeler ' s Orchestra, and they later attended the tradi- tional after-prom party.

This is an especially busy sea- son for members of Tigerland as activi- ties seem to increase. Warmer weather also meant more out- side activities in the sports field. Mr. Eviston, coach, kept track members pac- ing for the meets. After school, Cen- tralites could see thinliclads practicing across the street in the football practice field and cinder track. English students, now that the course of study was similar throughout the city high schools, were quite industrious with studying some of Shakespeare ' s writings and writing term papers. Also interested in the stage, drama students presented the junior and senior class plays. New equipment, especially lighting, made the plays more profession- al in that department. One of the climaxes of the school year is seeing the record of the school year, the distribution of the Caldron. Jour- nalism students, learning by doing, and other staff members were spending many hours after school to make the weekly newspaper and yearbook possible. Math-minded students, besides their class work, found math exciting and chal- lenging at their Math Club meetings. At these meetings, there were speakers and demonstrations to help students become more skilled in that field. Other department-interested students who participated in a class-associated club were the science students. After class many times students gathered in Room 209, the chemistry and physics room, for discussion. Spring was here. Poor Man ' s Prom. Junior Prom, and Senior Dance con- firmed this. There were also picnics, and banquets to attend. And behind this bustling atmosphere in Tigerland, are the members of the administration, the PTA, the cooks who feed the students, and the custodians who keep the school comfortable and neat TRACK Central Opponents 65 Columbia City, C.

Many frosh on track squad shows good prospects coming Central ' s track squad, coached by Warren Eviston, had a poor 2-6 season during its 1963 track schedule. But the 1964 team could be much better as the ' 63 squad had many freshmen. These boys had three years ahead of them and there were some good prospects. Two of their losses, to Marion and New Haven, were by three and four points respectively. Victories in these meets would have given the team an even record. Central had a good showing in the sectional meet as they placed fourth. Walter Pickett and Bob Hopson placed 1-2 in the high jump, while Al McKinney and Roosevelt Dodds took second and third in the broad jump, while Tyrone Harris placed in the low sticks. All four of these boys qualified for regional action. In the regional, the Tigers scored three points as they finished twelfth. North Side easily won the meet and went on to take state. Hopson placed third in the high jump and Harris placed fourth in the low hurdles.

Scharlyn Hill, and William Anderson dramatize a scene from a play in English class. English Department is now unified throughout city English departments throughout the Fort Wayne area are experiencing a new unification this year. Each de- partment offers identical courses at identical times to students in corresponding classes- This certainly abolishes the confusion that accompanies the transfer student. Oedipus The King and Antigone by Sophocles, Compara- tive Essays, Caesar and Cleopatra, and the Livingston series are a few of the new textbooks that are being used under the unification program. One subject being offered for the first time under the new program is world literature for the y lane seniors. The Greek tragedy and Hamlet are being offered also for the first time to the y lane seniors. Some new equipment purchased by the English De- partment to aid in teaching the newly-offered courses are tape recorder, book chart, and overhead projector. The fresFunan are studying from their textbooks, Adventures in Reading. Also, a classic, The Odyssey is being evaluated. Literature, language, and composition with balanced attention to all three areas in all three lanes is most important here at Central. This year fifty per cent of the time is being spent on composition and language in all English classes. English sophomores are studying Silas Marner and The Pearl along with their regular assignments from the textbooks concerning American literature. Julius Caesar and Elizabeth the Queen is another book of classics studied by sophomores- The juniors are concentrating on short stories, poems, and essays from their textbooks.

What ' s my next line? ' How can I enter left after I exit right and the curtains don ' t close? Where do the curtains overlap? How am I supposed to go through a wall? Why do you look for the upstairs in the kitchen? These and other comments can be heard on any given night, Monday through Thursday, six weeks before a play. Under the guidance of Mrs. Helen Lee, the Central High School Chapter of the National Thespian Society produced two plays. The junior play, Tiger House cen- tered around a haunted, inherited estate. The suspenseful atmosphere of the mystery-comedy was int ensified by a new lighting system. From the light-hearted entertainment of Tiger House, Central ' s Thespians did a turn-about and produced the frighteningly realistic Alas, Babylon, the senior play. This three-act drama by Pat Frank depicted the character changes that ordinary people go through in a time of crisis — in this case, an atomic war. Besides acting, dramatic enthusiasts also found time to put on a dance, Surfing Hootenanny. Journalism students gain knowledge through practice Jerry Wooiinng — Advises Spotliijht and Cal- dron; sponsors Press Club; attended Ball State. BS; interests are camping and tennis. Mr. Woodting How do you write this? Are there enough advertise- ments? How many pictures do you want? That ' s the sometimes frustrated atmosphere of the journalism stu- dents when there ' s a deadline approaching. Journalism courses are designed to encourage and re- ward improvement in English and writing. These stu- dents learn and practice journalistic writing, headline writing, proof-reading, copyreading, and advertising. For non-staff members, class work consists mainly of writing for the Spotlight. The advanced course for major staff members is mainly their own publications work. Spotlight sports editor Lyle Lantz and feature editor Leonard Morris work on stories and criticize a previous issue while pho- tographet Don Ertel takes their picture. Journalism class provides a chance fot students to learn how newspapers and yearbooks are put to.i ether. Here journalism student Steve Jones is enlarging a picture. Advanced journalism student Susan Lantz works on the records of the Spotlight. Advanced students often do the work their publications positions require as class work. 112 Publications workers receiving Quill and Scroll honors this year were Cindv Dill, Susan Lantz, and Don Ertel.

Yes, that is a typical publications worker when he learns that he is eligible to join Press Club, the social group that is a supplement to publications work. To join Press Club, a student must be active in either Spotlight or Caldron and have earned 1500 points. Press Club meets every other Tuesday at the home of one of the members. Members take turns hosting Press Club meetings. Those who served as officers of Press Club this year were Lyle Lantz, president; Leonard Morris, vice-presi- dent; and Clara Imbody, secretary-treasurer. Two picnics, two dances, and the spring banquet high- lighted the year for Press Club members in addition to their work for the Spotlight and the Caldron. Busy Spotlight staff keeps Central informed weekly Wednesdays and Spotlight distribution are as familiar a combination as ham and eggs to Central students. Dis- tribution of Spotlight IS made during homeroom period each Wednesday, and students use homeroom or study nails or lunch hours to read copies of The Revealing Light of the Centralite. Because the Spotlight is distributed every week, stu- dents take it for granted and don ' t realize how much work or how many people are involved in the publica- tion of a weekly newspaper. Some of the people in- volved this year included Debby Decker, editor-in-chief; Clara Imbody, news editor; Lyle Lantz, sports editor; Leonard Morris, feanire editor; and Christine Zimmerman and Dan Walchle, copy editors. Keeping the paper in business was the job of Susan Lantz, business manager. Selling enough ads to give Susan plenty of work to do was the job of Thyra Saffen, advertising salesman. Keeping old grads up to date on the happenings of ' Tiget-town was the job of Wally Moore, outside circulation manager; and keeping track of the points was job of Bonnie Heil, point recorder.

Picture editor Dannv Pallone. academic editor Michelle Cook, and club editor Dixie Landis identify pictures and write cut- lines for the 1964 Caldron. They were aided by rwo Cokes. One of the biggest events of the school year is Caldron distribution day. Each year as students examine their own books and sign the books of their friends, those who put the book together, the Caldron stafiF, reflect on the long hours of work that it took to make the Caldron the success that it always is. Many obstacles faced the literary-minded students who produced this year ' s masterpiece. Said obstacles were neglected homework, nerves shattered by writing the same .story several times, and long hours of hard work. Students who braved these harrowing trials to produce the 1964 Caldron were Cindly Dill, editor-in- chief; Michelle Cook, academic editor; Dixie Landis, club editor; Jim Johnson, sports editor; Dan Pallone and Sarah Rasor, picture editors; Tom O ' Brien, head photog- rapher; and Byron Smith, business manager. Besides the Caldron itself, the staff kept busy with plans for the annual spoofing of the Junior Prom, or the Poor Man ' s Prom. This year the Poor Man ' s Prom was Debutante Ball (the Caldron ' s coming Out Party). To know student schedules or to spell names correctly a file is used by publications staff.

Mathematics is an important necessity in everyday life Debbie Taylor looks on with much interest as Margaret Hunter is telling Lonnie Williams about an interesting fact. In seventh period general math class, Rufus Woods skillfully explains to Valentina Prokudin the method by which a math problem is solved. Many freshmen take this class. A set of ten film strips has been a great asset to the Mathematics Department this year. Six courses, general math, algebra, trigonometry, plane geometry, solid geometry, and advanced algebra, have indeed benefited by the use of the films. Even though all students can ' t be great mathema- ticians. Miss Ridgeway, Miss Plumanns, Mr. Dornte, and Mr. Rowe certainly do their very best to give every stu- dent a chance to excell in math. These teachers ofiFer the best information and advice to students who wish to further their education in math. Mathematics courses help students to equip themselves with skills in fundamental operations and understanding of basic mathematical ideas necessary to carry on the daily aflfairs of life profitably. Math courses also give college-bound pupils a firm foundation of mathematical concepts so that he can pursue a scientific, engineering, or theoretical course. Mathematics ability is certainly necessary in the nuclear world today. Since the discovery of nuclear power, high schools and colleges have given special attention to math and science courses that are ofTered. Willie Lawson, Russell Miller, Lyle Lantz, and Tom Evans examine a triangle in solid geometry class. 119 Math Club celebrates its fiftieth anniversary Math Club, Central ' s oldest ext ra-curricular activity, celebrated its fiftieth anniversary this year. Central ' s math enthusiasts celebrated their anniversary with a banquet at the Y. Guest speaker at the December 10 affair was Vernon Sheldon, a local attorney and former Central student. Math Club ' s other big event was their annual dance. This year, Golden Triangle emphasized the club ' s golden year. Music for the dance was furnished by the Counts. Those who served as officers for Math Club for the first semester were Byron Smith, president; Sylvia Rose, vice-president; Judy Taylor, secretary; and Rick Haw- thorne, treasurer. Second semester, Dick Smith, presi- dent; Roger Piatt, vice-president; Anita Hubartt, secre- tary; and Rick Tielker, treasurer. Club sponsors are Miss Leona Plumanns and Miss Dorothy Ridgway. Julie Flory, George Snook, Jeanne Slagle. and Sandy Mielke prepare and place decorations on the backdrop for Math Club dance, Golden Triangle, commemorating fiftieth anniversary. ' iv .

Phy-Chemers eager to learn and apply scientific means Just because there may not be time in physics class to build that bomb, many of Central ' s scientifically in- clined students don ' f despair. Instead, they join Phy- Chem Club. At 7:30 pm. on the second Wednesday of every month, budding scientists meet to discuss scientific achievements, hear lectures, see films, and conduct labora- tor) ' experiments that take longer than class time allows. Besides their other activities, this year ' s busy group managed to find time to hold a dance, Test Tube Tan- go, and also, to make a trip to the Argonne National Laboratories in Chicago. Phy-Chem is sponsored by Mr. Richard Horstmeyer. Those who served as this year ' s officers are Steve Der- nckson, president; Dick Smith, vice-president; Linda Englebrecht, secretary; and David Dyer, librarian. Officers of Phy-Chem this year were Steve Derrickson, president; Linda Engelbrecht. secretary; and Dick Smith, vice-president. Science students learn in ever-developing field In general science class Joyce Ambrose, Ben Jump, and Jackie Kirtz demonstrate to the rest of their class how the electro- static machine is supposed to be operated and the results of the correct handling of the machine. Physics, biology, physical geography, chemistry, and general science are the science courses offered to stu- dents at Central. College-bound students are required to tike at least two years of science; however, many stu- dents study in three or more courses of science, depend- ing upon their future careers. Mr. Horstmeyer, physics and chemistry teacher, re- lates, in the following words, the general aim and philoso- phy of the science department. To help each student in Central to know and under- stand the physical world in which we live, and to en- courage young men and women with ability to seek an area of science for a career are the primary aims of our Science Department- Courses in general science, biology, physical geography, physics, and chemistry give the stu- dents of Central a sound background in physical and life sciences.

Byron Smith and Dave Mueller tock top honors as they were named valedictorian and salutatorian, respectively, of the Class of 1964. Class of 1964 marks CentraFs centennial ceremony Two hundred thirry-three seniors attained the status of alumni at commencement exercises, marking the one hundredth graduating class. Looking back, there were many memories; looking forward, there are many gaals to aim for and achieve. Many remember being a part of the .- 85 new freshmen coming to Central for the first year of high school. Class parties, dances, yearly class nominations, and election dominated the activities for the earlier phase of the class ' high school career. In the junior year, two major events were supported, the class play and prom. Nancy Tieman reigned as queen at the junior prom, Never, Never Land. Peter Pan scenes accented the fantasy atmosphere as couples danced to the music of Jimmy Stier. Afterwards, couples de- parted at the magic hour of midnight to go to the After- Prom Party at the Hobby Ranch House. Finally, as seniors, students realized that this was really their last year of high school. Alas Babylon, the class play, an d Portals of Tomorrow, the senior dance were offset as important activities. Spon.sors for the senior class, Richard Levy and Kay Klenke, are shown discussing the activities, borh past and present, of the Class of 1964. Fouf-vear honor roll, consisting of seniors with cvcrages of 90 or higher, is made up of Susi ' .- Grogg, Jackie Adams, John Hopkins, Steve Derrickson, Bill Christensen, back row; and Rita Grueb, Sue Wolf, Jeanne Foote, and Elaine Smithson, front row. Honor seniors are Byron Smith, boy most likely to succeed; David Mueller, Kiwanis best citizen; Leonard Easterly, best boy citizen; Jeanne Foote, best girl citizen; and Elaine Smithson, girl most likely to suc- ceed and DAR good citizen. 125 Seniors began year ' s activities by nominating class This senior nomination scene shows Nancy Fritz on the microphone, while Leonard Easterly, later chosen as president, awaits his turn to speak to the Class of 1964.

Every school has an office that is always busy. Some- times the work consists of routine things like sending out letters, paying bills, and the other things that must be done in any kind of office. A school office also has many other kinds of duties. They include such things as plan- ning programs for the many students who attend Cen- tral, rearranging programs, and sometimes there are also such problems as personal ones that the students coon- sult the deans about. As in any school, there are also disciplinary problems to be handled by the deans and principal. Office staff consists of Mr. Paul Spuller, principal, Miss Emma Adams, dean of girls, Mr. Edward Schlecht, dean of boys, Mr. William Stotts, guidance counselor, Dr. Carl Bickley, vocational counselor and atheltic mana- ger, Mrs. Winifred Omerod, treasurer, and Mrs. Marv Watson, attendance clerk.

Winifred Ormerod, school treasurer, keeps track of money for various clubs and organizations. Mary Watson, attendance clerk, study hall, keeps track of pupils during many hours of each semester. Without these two. Cen- tral would not know where it stands. Mrs. Mildred Kuenke and Mrs. Evelyn Crandall are the secre- taties whose work keeps things running smoothly. Without them, many things necessary to the efficient running of a school could not be done. 136 ' V , - V.IC- _ Mr. Paul Spuiler. principal, is a well-known figure around Central.

Did they clean up after us? How did you make this goulash? Central ' s busy service crew- kept the domain running smoothly and quickly. Often this industrious crew could be found coming early and staying late preparing for another busy day. The custodians were always on hand if an emergency arose. Cooks were always occupied keeping the hungry people happy. Every morning, long before the students and faculty had arrived, the custodians were busy making the school grounds and buildings clean and comfortable. Their work- ing territory includes 50 classrooms, study hall, the of- fice, the halls, and the yard. Deciding the various menus, cooking the meals, and washing the dishes were all part of the daily duties of the Central cooking staff. Cafeteria workers started early in the day to begin and prepare a well-planned meal to keep the Centralites healthy. Although maybe unseen to the hungry people during the fourth and fifth noon hours, ten cooks were busy, ready, and willing to serve the Centralites their noon meals. Wholesome meals at reasonable prices, a spacious dining hall, and varied meals were the aims of the cafeteria staff. After students leave, the custodians start to clean a,cain for the next adventurous day. They keep the floors, desks, and rails free of dirt. Far left. Walter Hoelle starts to sweep; secnnd from left. Harold Hankins carries a box of books down the stairs to the store room; second from right.

Parents worked with problems for better school ES O lo Whenever a school problem arises, or whenever there is work to be done for the improvement of the school and the betterment of tlie pupils, one is certain ro see a member of Central ' s very active Parent Teachers As- sociation. Those who served the PTA as officers this year were Mrs. Robert Clymer, president; Mr. James Taylor, first vice-president; Mr. Herb Banet, second- vice-president; Mrs. Delores Green, secretary; and Mr. Cornelius Hill, treasurer. Activities that highlighted the school for PTA mem- bers were Back-to-School Night, a donkey basketball game, study groups, and regular meetings. This year instead of holding a fall festival to raise money, the PTA depended on donations of $2 per family. Parents and teachers met at intervals during the year to discuss the various arising problems and improve- ments for learning. Mr. Edward Schlecht, dean of boys, watches as Mr. Paul Spuller, principal, accepts a check from PTA president Mrs. Robert Clymer and PTA second vice-president Mr. Herb Banet. PTA spent time on fund raising. Officers of PTA this year are Cornelius Hill, Mrs. Tucker, Mr. Taylor, Mrs. Robert Clymer, president, and Mrs. Snook. Bark-to-School Night provides a chance for parents to see how their children are getting along in classes. Here Mrs. Fast and Mrs. Perkins look at an exhibit in one of the art rooms. One of the many proiects to obtain funds for the PTA was the donkey basketball games held in Central ' s gym. Here three members of the junior high coaches team are shown fighting for the basketball. Central Junior Division Junior high students are seen dancing at one of the five dances they held in the cafeteria after school during this school year. Peggy Goldsby sorts records at one of the iunior high dances while Robert Murphy and Mr. Lawrence Eastman of Central Junior Divi- Elizabeth Hatch and Mr. James Saunders watch. sion work on a scientific experiment in the classroom laboratory. r to get new housing soon Still housed in the Central High School buildings this year, Central Junior Division remained a separate entity from the high school with its own teachers and admin- istrators. The junior division had all its own pep sessions and programs. Junior division band played for its pep sessions and programs and the junior division choir sang several times for its own programs. Biggest news for the j unior high school students was that a new school for them is to be built within two years and that they will be moved into the new building in 1966. Miss Helen Ford, who had taught social studies at Harmar Junior High and Central Junior Division for 33 years, was greatly missed by her pupils when she died in March. Mr. Roger Pfeiffer is principal of the junior division; his staff assistant is Mr. Richard Shriner. 143 ROGERS STUDIO has been proud to be official senior photographer for the 1964 Caldron , .

It was the main objective of the staff to record the significant events of the 1963-64 school year as it really was, to produce a yearbook that you may open someday in the future with laughter and sadness, perhaps out of curiosity. Three main groups helped to record this year or to make it possible, the pho- tography staff, the editorial staff, and the business staff. All began part or continued to fulfill some of their duties as school reopened for another term in unusually warm weather. Caldron staff members undertook a momentous task trying to produce a year- book that would characterize this school year. It was not as easy as it sounded, but it was satisfying to see it materialize. It meant many things to each of us . . . meeting people, learning the journalistic procedure in producing a yearbook, learning to cooperate with others, mak- ing decisions, and having fun, among many others. Each staff has its own personality as well as the yearbook that they produce. There is an individuality that makes it in itself complete. And so in closing, as another school year ends, another staff has completed its task and gone their separate ways. — The Editor nSajlTOSpJH -JiT-i SCHOOL PRESS ;!t|iiii)iim;:.ii!! ' r iiw:i;)a;i
