We, of Central, are sad and happy — At the same time. Happv for the end of the school term ; Sad for the end of Central. Does anyone, other than us. care? We can scream until we are hoarse — Write until our brains are exhausted — But is it any good? Will anyone understand? Will it keep the memory of Central alive? How can we capture the spirit of Central? A student ' s pride — The stately regality of age. Knowing that it was first to be here But that it will be first to cease. Tomorrow, the old spirit will be gone. Central High School, as we have had it. Will exist no longer. It will be merely a piece of history To forthcoming generations. But if anyone cares enough to listen We can tell them. We must try to express ourselves — Maybe somebody will listen And understand how we feel. If we can but capture the emotion And write it down Someone will read it. and feel it. You never know how much you love something Until it is taken away. And so it is with us. This is the be rinnine of the end. ' Dear Central ' was focal point for us What does Central give to her grad- uates? She gives knowledge, and en- joyment, but she also gives something above this. Many different people of many different ethnic groups and races have gone through Central and every- one has belonged. There have been the smart people who belonged to Honor Society and others who just barely grad- uated. There have been outstanding ath- letes and others who had no physical ability. But everyone has belonged. There is a unity in Central that ties the students to each other and holds the graduates to the school later in life and many- miles away. Every one from the outstanding Blanket Man to the kid at the Sectionals who can ' t dribble a basketball can fit. The cheerleader who works himself up to a fit of frenzy and the band member who tries to play a C sharp and ends up with an E flat fits. The Christmas pageant of days gone by fits right along with the junior Prom Court. The past is a part of the present and the present belongs with the past. It fits. Fitzhugh Lyons, class of 1930, was a Blanket- man. The 1938-39 Marching Tiger Band kept up the high stepping tradition of Central music. The Christmas play in 1924 was one of the many times when the Centralites came together and showed that their school meant much to them. Harold McMillen and Leonard Scott kept the cheering going back in 1923-24 when the Tigers were a state wide sports power as they were to the finish. The 1947 Awards assembly gave the people who worked hard their recognition. Leaders as here in 1934 made us a part of Central. something more than ourselves Girls ' sophomore basketball team tough on the courts. in 1919 were sharp in their middie outfits and they were Was Central Togetherness and be- longing? My. yes, was it belonging! Be- longing to the Booster club, to the Honor Society, to the Speech program, to the Drama program, to the CGAA, to the Twirlers, to the Publications program, to almost anything. And we got a lot out of belonging and we put a lot into belonging. There were the hours spent practicing the play or how to throw the baton up forty feet and catch it still spinning. Long evenings in the Spotlight office getting the pa- per ready. The Spotlight !-taff was something worthwhile The Boosters Club has been working for Central a long time and have looked good as back to belong to even back in 1929-30. with this group in 1938-39. Belonging to excellence with Honor Society in 1935. ' 1 1 1 ti 1 ■ m f «m if -i -$- Sports have always been a big part of Central, going all the way back to Fort Wayne High School where Central traces its beginnings. Sports have al- ways been important but it was the game itself that mattered, not if Central won or lost. Winning is not a stranger to the grey stone walls that house the Tigers. To look any record book will show that Central has won its share of games and some of the other guy ' s too. Success in all sports and especially football and basketball are an indication of the deter- mination and the long hours of work and preparation that go into any sport during any year. The faces that look out from this page show some of the people who have made the athletic program a success. They are not always the winners. They are not always the state champion or the un- defeated. But they are the sportsmen and the gentlemen. Central has never had to apologize for those who have proudly and faith- fully worn her well respected Blue and White. One of the earliest pictures of a Fort Wayne Grid club is the one above of the 1899 Fort Wayne High School Tigers. 1935 Gridtigers moved the ball with style. d much to Centralites u I l.l l; I- |i hi -i Wilfred Hosey, captain of the 1923 cage team, was the first real captain of Central since it The 1942-43 Basketball team went all the way and took the state title to show the state who was tlien tnat Fort Wayne High was made was who. Central. The 1941 graduation sent many fine young people into a far from quiet world. They have done well with the trust Central put in them. Classes are the biggest part of Central and the study was never easy and the work was always worth doing. Mr. Fred Croninger showed the map of the great war to his students. Central has never been afraid to face the reality of society. Central will live in what we learned The trees are all that is left of Central that is alive. Central is now gone. Quiet Halls mark the passing of an era. though they are sometimes disturbed by the Ghosts. The 1937 Recognition Day included a pageant to let the students show how much they had learned. Samuel Stuart in Speech was one of the finest products of Central High School. Studies are what it has been all about. The search for understanding and the good feeling that a person has when he does understand. It may be the spread of the NAZI threat in 1945. or it may be learning of a man who held a bleeding country together and helped bring free- dom to millions. Study was communica- tion. Has it succeeded? Has learning and understanding really made any differ- ence? Look around you at the world you have created and see that it is good. Not perfect, but good and Central was a part of that. You and all the other former Centralites are a part of the goodness that exists. Sometimes learning was painful and there were a number of times we just sort of hammed it up. But there was always Central around us protecting us. The halls had grace and charm. That charm is no more for there is no more a Central high school, but if we can remember, perhaps it will not fade away so fast. Perhaps it will live. One of the many advantages of the Open House was the meeting and the mingling of the Centralites, many of whom hadn ' t seen each other in many years. Central ' s friends bid her good-bye meeting places for the many Registration was handled by the Central PTA Some proud grads even brought their old dip lomas. An open house held the first Sunday in May gave all of Central ' s Alumni and friends to visit the Home of the Tigers for the last time. The reception and visiting in the cafe- teria gave the visitors a chance to see old friends and renew old relationships. The chance to tour the building and see once more the familiar surroundings was a high point of the day and was one that most of the guests took advantage of. Hosting the day was Principal Paul Spuller and the present faculty of Central. Busy visitors in the cafeteria included many of the former teachers of Central, both retired and moved to other jobs. Estimates of the crowd who attended the last open house ranged up to five thousand and proved that support for Central is still as high as ever now that the end is coming. The loss that will result from the closing of Central is great by Central is a victim of the times and the situation. Central will never be forgotten by those who love her. The man who wrote the school song was there. ■■ • -. f 1 m gyl i Not quite reindeer but altogether just an effective Santa Claus wears an extra smile as the varsity and reserve cheerleaders wheel him in.

Dan Kuchunski three time world horseshoe champion gets ready to pitch again as he did so pretty wild tricks with his horseshoes. His wife Sue is a gymnast and has great faith in her husband as she flips and bends over the stake while he hit ringer after ringer. Johnny Boyd came here to talk to our students about driving and common sense when you are driving or just rid- ing. He showed movies of the Indian- apolis 500 all the safety rules you had to follow to drive in the race. We had a question and answer session after the movie in which I ' m sure many new things about driving safety were learned and not only by the students but the teachers. The student body stands and cheers at the pep session for the Dwenger game during the sectional.

A couple of early season losses seemed to put the Tigers out of the cage race, but at the last minute, the City Crown was ours here at Central. No one was going to stop us in our last try for the state championship. The final pep session before the sectionals was full of confidence, fun and dreams. There were visions of the big finish shin- ing now. Then came the Saints. They didn ' t have a chance as the Tigers mauled them. Now we were really high and there was no way to bring us down. We were flying right up to the sky and still dream- ing. Then came the Trojans from Elmhurst and the pretty bubble we had built just burst. We were the Cinderella team and the clock had just struck midnight. The Tigers did their best as they clawed their way back to a tie at the end of regula- tion time but we were down by one point at the final. Central was out of our last sectional ever, but people will remember the way that the battling Bengals worked to- gether for a long, long time to come.

He not only builds the chapel but almost buys all the materials himself. Lilies is the last play presented as a part of Central High School. It was di- rected bv Mr. Del Proctor and featured Lincoln Chapman as Homer Smith, the traveler and the builder of the chapel. This vear was also Central ' s year to begin a new policy and present the play during: the school dav for two davs. Former queen Tina Kirk stands beside new queen Connie York as the court looks 1970 Junior Prom is last at Central The magic night finally came and many of our Centralites and guests came pictured are Tina Kirk, Seno Brown, Jane Banks and others. Eddie York the queen ' s young brother does the honors of carrying the crown for Connie. Last Year ' s Prom Misty Moonlight ' was held here in the Central Cafeteria. It was without question one of the best ever held by Central. The. prom ' s queen, Miss Connie York was crowned by the former queen Tina Kirk at about 10:30 P.M. On that moment as the crown slipped on to her head the dream of all young ladies had just come true for Connie ork and so began her reign as queen. At the prom there were over 3-1-0 people and all of them have high expectations for next year. Finally the moment came when former queen Tina Kirk turns over her reign as queen to to Connie York.

Margie Shade, the Georgiana Walker. bearer, watches as former Queen Conne York vns Queen The final Central prom, appropriately named The Last Enchantment was completely different from all the other proms in CHS history, due to the fact, that it was held at the Sheraton Hotel, instead of the traditional site, the Cen- tral cafeteria. The prom took special meaning to all Centralites who participated. This prom called upon all the memories and for- gotten dreams of so many people and many years. The magic of these proms was in a way of enchantment in itself a summing up over a hundred years in the history of the first high school in Fort Wayne. The highly touted social event, spon- sored by the Junior Class, and advisers Mrs. Nancy Mack and Mr. Buzz Doef- fler. Central prom have been the event of the year going back to 1942.

Heading the list were such established and well attended dinners as the Honors Banquet where the scholars who have proven themselves are honored and the Letterman ' s Banquet to recognize athletic skill. Other groups who chose to fete their membership were the Booster Club, the Math Club, the GAA, and the Publications Staffs. The Booster Club had dinner at Hall ' s Gas House and the GAA conducted their own banquet right here in Central ' s cafeteria. The Math Club and the Publications Staffs elected to have their evenings out at the Hall ' s Smorgasbord. The Publications Banquet also was the awarding of over fifty certificates and about a dozen sterling silver pins. It was also at this Banquet that Derek Thomas. Alma Chapman, Vernita Tucker, Josie Shelton, Joanne Eldridge, Mary Perez, and Sharon Walter were inducted into Quill and Scroll Society for high school journalism. • ' ) Miss Emma Adams and Miss Meribah Ingham, past AA sponsors were honored at the GAA Banquet.

Recognition Day honors Central Hard work deserves its rewards and they come to Centralites on Central ' s Recognition Day. On this day, the achievements of many people in many areas are rewarded and lasting momen- tos are given out. There is no favoritism as success in the athletic and in the scholarly fields is recognized as the good job of Cen- tral ' s own sons and daughters. This day is a day for the shedding of tears of joy when the trophy is pre- sented and for smiles of pride as the en- tire student body of Central applauds the winner and shares in his reflected glory. This is also a day for farewell as the Senior Class bids its last good bye to that which has meant so much, Central, Dear Central. The Graduates all assemble in their caps and gowns and enjoy the proud smiles of the faculty and the envious looks of the rest of the students. Algerine Hicks reflects on what her trophy earned for speech means to her on this day.

The commencement address was delivered by Dr. M. Bauehman. Wayne Collins, full of smiles accepts a hand shake extended by principal Paul Spuller. Miss Emma Edams vice-principal last year shakes hands with Jacqueline Bonner. Last year ' s graduation, not the last, but one of the best in the history of Central High School was honored bv the presence of Dr. M. Dale Baughman. Pro- fessor of Education and Physiology at Indiana State University. One hundred and ninety two seniors graduated from the halls of Central High School to the gates of manhood and womanhood to fulfill their responsibility as an asset to the community and coun- try in which they live. The Valedictorian of last year ' s graduation was Paul Louie, now enrolled at The University of Chicago and doing well. He is just one of many people who can boast of graduating from Central High. Over the years of Central ' s history, it has turned out many outstanding men and women to take their place in our fast moving society. This, Central ' s one hundred and sixth graduation, is the forerunner of the last graduation to be held by Central as a High School. Central, the first high school in Fort Wayne, has been a place for many memories for many people and will al- ways be in the hearts of all who know and love it. Graduation is a big day for any senior and it certainly causes a mixture of emotion as witness these three seniors. A diploma is a big thing and means much to all. Central has been proud over the years of the fine young men and young women who as her graduates have so ably represented her. Now she has produced her last crop ti in-, 8 3S mUch h ° n0r t0 her as her manv othcr sons a,ld daughters have _ Inis 1971 senior class was tJie winner of more than three hundred thousand dollars m college scholarships.

Organizations All are served by boosters Dating back from the year 1927. the Tiger Booster Club, continued its tra- ditional support of the athletic teams. The Boosters, who are selected from the top young ladies and gentlemen, at Cen- tral, gave all they had in supplying help at half-time of Tiger football and basket- ball games held at the newly named Chambers Field and the Tiger ' s Den. Advised by four faculty members, the club had such activities as: skits at the pep sessions, selling concessions at the home games, making posters and bulle- tin boards, and last of all having a picnic in May. The four faculty sponsors were: Miss Roberts. Mr. Flohr. Mr. Richard- ville, and Mr. McCory. The members of the club were chosen on the basis of good citizenship, above average grades, spirited minded, and a willingness to work.

Student Council leads the students Probably the most important organi- zation at Central High School is the Student Council. This body of elected homeroom representatives was most in- dustrious in student activities. The Student Council, headed by La- feyette Jordan, meet the first and third Wednesdays during second p eriod. Vice- President was Barbara Williams, Secre- tary was Marrietta Jackson, and the Sergeant at arms was Kirk Bell. The council busied itself in such ac- tivities as bake sales, making signs, candle sales, and sweat shirt sales. The 1970 Christmas Program was one of the most successful as they collected much in the way of food and clothing for the CHS sponsored family. The Student Council is dedicated to working industriously for the school and school functions. The cooperation was excellent and project interest was great. The CHS Student Council has long been an important part of its history and will be long remembered. Towards the beginning of school Central was forced into a situation of having to employ council members as Hall Monitors and Connie Bergman volunteered for the job on the first floor. During a special meeting of the Student Council, Lafeyatte Jordon was asked many questions and with the aid of Mr. Horstmeyer he was able to answer them. One of the projects of the Student Council was a neighborhood clean up where even the officers were involved like the vice president Barbara Williams. Even though a very few showed up for this picture, many people make up our Student Council which in turn make up our laws. Mr. Proctor entertained at a Hallove sponsored by the DECA Club.

Our local DECA placed highly in the District 111 contest: seniors Diana Hull, Larry Potts, Pam Sells, and as well as Juniors Berniee Coats, Deanna Murray, placed first or second in at least one Individual contest division. Several people represented us at State contest, and placed in that also ; Larry Potts won first place in the area of Dist. Manual, and third place in Studies in Market Manual; Derma Mur- ry acquired second place in ad layout, and Debhie Nicholson earned Honorable Mention in Merchandise Manual.

Being a letterman shows that dedication and work have been put out by the athlete. Truly the Central ' ; C jacket is a mark of distinc- tion that few deserve. The Lettermen ' s Club is the organiza- tion that is concerned about the ser- vice that an athlete can provide when he is off of the playing field. It is not just on the gridiron, on the courts, on the course, and on the track that the young man represents his school and his fellows. Everywhere he goes the athlete will be a spokesman for Central and he will be known by his jacket. Then his actions will be a reflection on Central and that reflection has almost always been a good one. Projects that the letterman undertook around Central were headed by the Ban- quet to recognize athletic achievement and this was coupled with much service work.

Afro-club works for everyone Shakespeare said To thine own self be true and the Afro-American Club here at Central added also to be of service wherever and whenever we are needed . It is through service to others that we can most learn to be of service to ourself and to those we care for. Afro club worked to collect food and clothing at Christmas for a less fortunate family and through this proved to be of service to others. It was also the Afro club that spon- sored the first dance of the year for the school. The Afro club members com- mented that it was almost as much fun to work at the dance as it was to go as a party person. Again the club learned that it was enjoyable to be of service to others and it profited everyone. Sponsors for the club during this, its last year were Mrs. Sharon Banks and Mrs. Marge Buford. Membership in the club was sixty-five people from all three classes. You expect me to put this on? was the expression shown on Mrs. Sawin face.

Caldron staff puts it all together for Central Completing the 58th CALDRON, was a long dubious task for all of its junior staff. But it was well worth it. The CALDRON has long been an important part of Central ' s history, recording the event an entire school year into a single book. The CALDRON was not the first year- book in Central ' s history. Way back in the late 1890 ' s several yearbooks under different names were printed for Fort Wayne High school. The 1971 CAL- DRON Staff are: Editor-in-Chief, Josie Shelton; Academic Editor. Mary Perz; Organization Editor, Sharon Walter: Sports Editor, Glenna Betties; Assistant Sports Editor, Derek Thomas; Joanne Eldridge, Album Editor and Patrica Tracy. Index and advertising editor. The CALDRON itself has a proud heritage, at one time in its history, it won fourteen straight ALL-AMERICAN Ratings from the National Scholastic Yearbook Association. Loveless Maydwell was our main man when This stack of past Central High School yearbooks reflects the tradition that is collected in a it came to photography for the yearbook. sampling of past yearbooks. This 1971 Caldron is the last that will ever be added to the files. As our editor of the yearbook Josie Shelton has showed us how much hard work is put into a Yearbook. At the final Publication ' s Banquet Mr. Sweeney gave out awards to the people who worked hard and really deserved them like Derek Thomas who works both on the paper and the yearbook. Spotlight for last year proves Central 1st class These are the people who make up the Spot- light Staff who work long and hard hours every two weeks to bring out the most en- joyable paper of the whole city. During the News Sentinal Tour, Janice Tharp looks over one of the machines for printing the paper. Completing a successful year of pub- lications, Central ' s newspaper THE SPOTLIGHT, covered the final events in the last year of Central High School. The Bengal newspaper was well re- warded as the Spotlight received a FIRST CLASS RATING from the Na- tional Scholastic Press Association. This was the second highest rating which can be received bv a high school newspaper. THE SPOTLIGHT supervised by Mr. J. P. Sweeney, completed eighteen is- sues which informed the student body of the daily happenings at CHS. Some of the activities of the year were J-Day, held at Ball State, Newspaper week, Editors Association, and a Publications Banquet. The major staff consisted of Alma Chapman. Editor-in-Chief; Latanya Dixie, Business Manager; Condra Leach. Assistant Editor-in-Chief; Vernita Tucker, News Editor; Janice Tharp. Feature Editor; and Derek Thomas, Sports Editor. These young men put in their time and ef- fort to get out the many pictures needed to put out the paper and yearbook. Alma Chapman does some last minute proof- reading before putting the paper to bed. Working on the paper is a tedious job as you can see by the deep concentration of these three reporters. Central PTA aids school furnishing At the close of Central ' s final year, the PTA contributed the remaining funds in the treasury to the Fort Wayne Community Schools to assist in the proj- ect of refurnishing Room 114 at Central High School where Central and Central PTA keepsakes and momentos will be kept. Over the years, the PTA has assisted in many community projects such as: the Salk Vaccine Vaccination against polio, the Fort Wayne PTA Council ' s Book Bank, the Student Aid Fund, and many other worthwhile activities. PTA raised money for scholarships with dances and alumni basketball games. They also helped at arranging, decorating, and serving at the Senior Banquet. Recognition Day exercises, and Commencement.

Martone, Pep, soul, and Tiger power The cheerleaders aroused the school spirit in many ways to let our team know that we had faith, and were behind them every step of the way. All cheerleaders have certain set re- quirements to meet. Among these are, varsity cheerleaders must be juniors or seniors, reserve cheerleaders must be sophomores or juniors, and they must be passing in all school subjects. Each cheerleader is selected by officers of the various school organizations after being given a fair chance to prove her worth and ability. At the pep-sessions and games, the Tiger cheerleaders led the students in cheers to help boost the morale of the team so that they would go on to victory. Mr. Richard Levy has sponsored the cheerleaders for the past three years.. The final Varsity Cheeleading squad were: Deborah Joyner. captain; Alma Chapman. Bernice Coats. Colleen Rasor. Janice Tharp. and Deborah Waldrop. The final Reserve Cheerleading squad were: Condra Leach, captain; Geraldine Gaston. LeeAnn Wallace. Elaine Blunt, and Bernice Nelson. Both squads helped make Central High School ' s last athletic season one of the best.

Tigeretts considered best of traditions m ' J mm A E HI The Marching Tigerettes had a history as old as the band in which they have represented Central High School in the best of all traditions. The Marching Tigerettes was one of the few school organizations that pro- vided a public performance outlet to girls. Each morning before school during the athletic season the majorettes attend- ed a practice session in order to be in perfect form for entertaining at football and basketball half-time shows. This year the Marching Tigerettes have performed at five home football games, the football preview, and nine home basketball games, and have participated in the pep sessions. This year the last Marching Tigerettes were awarded trophies at the end of the year in recognition of their outstanding contribution to the school spirit and pride of Central High School. A party was given at the end of the year. Lynn Allen and Faith Thomas stand at atten- tion during football halftime shows. Math club promotes careers in field Central H School ' s Mathemat Club, founded in 1913. was the oldest high school organization in the city of Fort Wayne. To be eligible for membership in the club each student was required to have been enrolled in or to have already taken Geometry I. The club met once a month and on that day the members worked out some recreational problems. The purposes of the Math Club were: to develop an appreciation in the field of mathematics; to investigate certain in- teresting phases of mathematics which are not covered in the classroom, and to afford a better opportunity for social contact of students and teachers of math- ematics. They were entertained by guest speak- ers such as Mr. Phil Schnelker, an engi- neer, who spoke at the January meeting. Sponsoring the Math Club was Miss Leona Plummans. head of the Math Department. Miss Plummans had spon- sored the club since she first arrived in 1952. The officers of the Math Club were as follows: Tara Gannaway, president; Joanne Eldridge, vice president; and Jerry Coleman, treasurer. Mr. Phil Schnelker takes time after his speech to the Central Math Club to talk to senior Ver- non Willis and clear up a few points about possible careers that are available in the field of mathematics. Outside speakers were only one part of a program provided for those Centralites interested in the math sciences. Members of the Math Club are: FRONT ROW: Miss Plummans, Tara Ganaway, Joanne Eldridge, Condra Leach; SECOND ROW: Rhea Booker.

Mr. Phil Schnelker, local consulting en- gineer from Fort Wayne, addressed the Math Club about careers possible with a strong math background. Now that Math Club is no more all that is left is the shadows of the people and the problems that composed the club for the past 48 years.

The club was known as CGAA, Cen- tral Girls Athletic Association, until 1963 when the name was simplified to GAA. At the GAA Banquet, held on May 19th this year, members were given pins, letters, or sweaters in recognition for their achievements. GAA spon- sored a Christmas Party and a fashion show. On Recognition Day awards were re- ceived by members who were outstand- ing in a particular sport. Among the sports were volleyball, kinball. bowling, and swimming. Sis Arnold, the club sponsor, has taught girl ' s physical education since 1948. She received her Bachelors De- gree from Ball State and her Masters De- gree from Indiana University. The 1970-71 club officers were Deborah Brownlee, president ; Barbara Williams, vice-president: Selma Jones, secretary; and Bernice Coats, point recorder. FRONT ROW: Debby Waldrop.

V HMH L- -J Students of Central High School have participated in many plays com- memorating the holidays one of which was shown in the year 1928. It was called the Patriotic Program honoring the history of the United States from the Revolutionary War to the signing of the Armistice after World War I. Drama involves a varied group Drama was an activity that appealed to many. There was acting in parts, mak- ing costumes, helping with make-up. working with lights and sound, and constructing sets. Drama had something for almost everyone. Many different kinds of talent constituted a very suc- cessful dramatics program. There are no requirements for mem- bers of Drama. Any Central student interested in Drama was invited to par- ticipate in the activities. Mr. Dclmar Proctor has sponsored the club for the past 9 years. The first Senior Play at Central was A Rose of Plymouth Town presented in 1914. This year there was no Senior Play but there was a Junior Play titled the Lillies of the Field . It was pre- sented in the auditorium during school to the Juniors and Seniors on Novem- ber 19th and to the Sophomores on November 20th.

The sponsors of the Art Club were as follows: Mrs. Carolyn Wadlington. who had sponsored the club for ten years: Mrs. Marjorie Buford. who had spon- sored the club for the past two vears: and Mrs. Becka Minier. who had spon- sored the club for this past year only. Rotha Early was president of Art Club. To become a member of this club the student was required to have had one year of high school art. Meetings were held first and third Thursdays of each month. Among the activities were: decorating the school Christmas trees, posters for pep sessions, decorations for banquets, programs for school plavs. Art Club Christmas Partv and dance. Push it, Pull it was one of many dances and songs going through the minds of our Centralites. Tigers assist with service Without the time and energy spent by members of Service Club, it wouldn ' t have been possible for Central High School to run as efficinetly as it did. In 1937 Library Service Club was first organized. As the name suggests, the club was formed to help students and teachers with materials in the library. Later the name was simplified to Service Club as it expanded in service to not only the library, but to other areas of school as well. Originally the club was always sponsored by the school librarian, but for the last 3 years Mrs. Allen, at- tendance clerk, has been in charge of the club. This year a May breakfast was held for all members of the club at which wards were given out to outstanding members. The highest award given is a gold pin after the member has earned 300 points.

According to Mr. Jim Mc- Fadden. these students were among the top students in both scholastic and extra-curricular activities. The awards that these students brought to Central this year and in past years has been legion. Speech tourneys at New Haven. E ' m- hurst. Ball State, and the District Forensic League were witnesses to vic- tories bv the Tiger Speech Club. Most of the victories go to Josie Shelton who as a junior this year proved to be the most successful of the whole speech team in many areas. Larry Potts, a senior, was also suc- cessful in the speech sectionals. Other winners in speech meets included Algie Hicks. Elsa Perez, Malinda Wade. Lauretta Jordan, and many others who did a wonderful job. In the last twenty years, the speech organization at Central has placed at least fifty students in top state competi- tions. Tara Gannaway. Cheryl Stevens, and Glenda White were on hand when the Junior Congress picked the name of the 1971 Junior Prom. The name chosen was The Last Enchantment held at the Sheriton. Tyrone Hines and Algerine Hicks look con- cerned over the name of the Junior Prom since time is going fast. Jr. Congress directs together class Junior congress, the traditional ruling body of junior Centralities, was a rep- resentative group elected from each homeroom to help organize and pro- mote class projects. These juniors acted as a liaison between the students of the class and the administrators to discuss and evaluate proposed plans. Another aim of the congress was to create an atmosphere of active, constructive build- ing of community and school relations for the juniors. The class officers governed this group. They have promoted the junior prom, Mr. and Miss Courtesy, ' Lilies of the Field ' , and the ' Dating Game ' . The junior prom, a tradition of 29 years, was held at the Sheraton Hotel. Mr. and Miss Courtesy was Ron Barnes and Yvonne Kennedy. The ' Dating Game ' was new, but it turned out to be a great success. All in all the congress achieved its specified goals and was an active body. Reflecting on the past this Junior Congress members looks at the empty lockers and re- members the class of 1972.

The Vocational Industrial Cooperative Association, better known as VICA, com- pleted its third and final year at Central, sponsored by Mr. Piepenbrink. VICA was comprised of members seeking training in specific occupational goals. Members attended regular school and were employed in places where they were trained for their desired occupa- tions. Although VICA was organized at Cen- tral for three years ago, it has been or- ganized nationwide for approximately twenty years. The only qualification for members was that of enrollment in the ICT class. Dues were used to finance club activities using a decoupage project to raise money. Among the activities were: Club par- ticipation in state elections, in October, at Indianapolis, and an employer ap- preciation banquet in May. The club officers were: Cliff Hether- ington, president; Chris Teetsel, treas- urer; and Jim Stucky, secretary.

Academics Administration: Miller and Davis Assistant Principals In order for a school to function properly, there has to be some good organization. This is supplied through Central ' s skillful administration. A student reaches out to these people to locate their problems and to solve these problems. Many years have passed, and Central ' s ending has just begun. Mr. Paul Spuller. our principal now. will go to Northrop and assist that school in its beginning. Central ' s 1970-71 school year was changed slightly. Since Miss Emma Adams was not here to assist Mr. Spuller through our last year, Mr. Robert Miller and Mr. William Davis, presided by our principal. Together, this duo, has helped out in counseling and guiding the student body through another tough year. Along with different activities, the guidance counselors have also helped the students out, as they have done before. Preceding the way were Dean of Boys and Girls, Mr. Richard Horstmeyer and Mrs. Patti Martone. Including the Class Counselors and Coordinators: Mr. Banet; Mr. Bienz; Mrs. Banks; Mr. Tricolas, guidance coordi- nator; and Mr. Schoeff. counselor and athletic director.

Little do the students realize how lost Central would be without the aid of our extremely competent, loyal, and reliable staff. This staff is composed of the secretaries, attendance clerks, trea- surers, and the cooks. Their jobs includ- ed much more work and effort than it meets the eye, yet they continued through the entire year to do the best job they possibly could. Central ' s last year may not have been as smoothly- run as it was, had it not been partly due to the credit coming to these dedi- cated people. They met obstacles in their work as everyone else does, yet this did not stop them from performing their tasks to the best of their ability. They can say, We have helped to better Central, and make its last year a one to remember. work than meets the eye Cafeteria workers for Central ' s final year, left to right were: Betty Maszkiewiez, Jesse Krone.

Math: Thinking to himself, Mr. Dornte wonders if any of his students shall go on to college, and study the field of mathematics. Leona Plummans Robert Domte It all ' ' sums up. the mathematics de- partment this 1970-71 school year have proven to be a real addition to Central High. Offered to the students were four solid courses, algebra, geometry, ad- vanced algebra. and trigonometry, which included analytic geometry. With new books this school year, stu- dents in all math classes, except geome- try, were given all answers in the odd, for all their exercises. Including the geo- metric shapes, which were used in all the math classes when studied about. Heading the mathematics department for the last year was Miss Leona Plum- mans, along with the help of Mr. Robert Dornte. New books addition to Math Department Looking for the tangents, arcs, and chords of a circle, sophomore Valerie Johnston attempts to prove a theorem from chapter ten. in Mr. Dornte ' s second period geometry class. Valerie is also a honor student. In Mr. Richardville ' s second period general mathematics class, sophomore Melvin Odom tries his skills in simplified bookkeeping, at figuring out a problem to find the balance of a budget. As Robert Milligan looks up, he wonders to himself why he decided to take geometry in the first place, for now working on a chapter that deals with trigonometry seems difficult. Shown here. Mr. Domte ' s second period geometry class, the students try working very hard, to get their next day ' s assignment done. Mr. Domte also teaches a first and third period geometry class, and a fifth period algebra class. Working on simplifying radicals, senior Dorothy Harrison, an advanced algebra stu- dent, tries to accomplish the answer of a radi- cal -4. Having a bit of difficulty with an algebra problem, Patricia Tracy, a seventh period advanced algebra student, discusses on completing her radical problem. Shown here, Miss Plummans, head of the mathematics department, advises Patty that she must square her answer, in order to get the right answer. Makes you wonder, doesn ' t it? Is she or isn ' t she? Is she what? Studying, of course! Senior Elsa Perez, uses all the intelligence she has, and puts it into the book she ' s reading. Even Elsa Weiney , who went through four years on the honor roll, will read a little enjoyment every once in a while. As you will notice, it ' s a comic book instead of a history book. Central Noble students visit Central This year at Central, a Mock Elec- tion was conducted for all the social studies classes. Levers were being pulled, and ballots were being tallied. Students in the Issues and Values class from Central Noble came to observe our social studies classes. The seniors from Mr. Weber ' s sixth period Government class were paired off with those students, from Central Noble. Our students showed them, a day at Central. Awarded to the seniors only, is the trophy for the best term paper through- out the 1970-71 school year. Along with other departments of the school, Central helped choose books and audio-visual materials, in prepara- tion for the new schools. The teachers in the social studies de- partment were Mr. Lloyd Weber; de- partment head, Mr. Robert Dille. Mr. Kip Ormerod, and Mr. Howard Schneider. With the Mock Election held by social studies department head, Mr. Lloyd Weber, his seventh period U.S. History class voted in the booths. Shown here, junior Vincent Turner, is very surprised at the flash of the camera. Traveling around the world in a different fashion, juniors Bernadine Logan and Mary Perez, make a stop to study the continent of Africa, in their seventh period U.S. History class. Teacher to this class and head of the social studies department, Mr. Weber prepares worksheets for all his classes, for studying purposes when test time comes. Mr. Weber also teaches three senior required classes, sociology, government, and economics. In Mr. Ormerod ' s sixth period government class, senior Coleridge Brewer compares his book and notes for a test for the next day. 87 ' Mmm good! , was senior Connie York ' s expression, as she examined the nervous sys- tem of the fetal pig, in Mr. Levy ' s fourth period zoology class. Looking over her shoul- der, sophomore Melanie Sims watches closely at Connie ' s demonstration on her disse lion. Science: Phylums studied in laboratory sessions Observing under the microscopes, Mr. Levy ' s classes study the types of Phylums. Along with the new models from last year, students find it much easier to study the animals of the microscopic world. With the dissections and experimenting of fetal ani- mals, the students also found the models as another helpful use. This year, the zoology students disected the worm, the clam, the grasshopper, the frog, a fish, the cray fish, and the fetal pig. Electives offered to the Central students were chemistry, physics, botany, zoology, biology, and earth science. All subjects required some sort of lab period, since it was now a required thing of all solid courses. Head of the science department once more was Mr. Richard Levy, who taught zoolo- gy and botany. In addition to the staff was Mr. Bernard Richardville, who taught chemistry and physics; along with Mr. Stephen Flohr. who taught biology and earth science. Last, but not least, was Mr. John McCory, who taught earth science. Weigh, measure, and check.

These stu dents all participate in Mr. Richardville ' s seventh period chemistry class. English: Involvement proves most rewarding Involvement proved most rewarding for many Central students. Numerous oratorical trophies, presentation of ' Lilies of the Field ' , the SPOTLIGHT, and the last CALDRON, gave students experience and the opportunity to ex- press themselves to Central, their fellow students, and faculty. The CALDRON and the SPOTLIGHT staffs started out mainly inexperienced, but ended a difficult vear with a flourish. The SPOTLIGHT received a first class rating and the yearbook pub- lished one of its finest editions. Speech students spent many rewarding hours at contests. They took the fifth place team trophy at the Elmhurst Sectionals. ' Lilies of the Field ' , a drama of spir- itual faith was the sole production of 71 ' s drama department. Lincoln Chap- man and Gail Beebe took starring roles. While in her speech class, junior Glenna Betties gives the Black Power symbol on her speech of equalism. Towards the end of the 1970-71 school year, the sixth period journalism class was limited down to only four sophomore students.

This year the school play, The Lilies of the Field , was held during school in- stead of after school. Throughout the year the English teachers had their classes go to the auditorium, to act out plays. With combined classes of sophomores. Mrs. Mack and Miss Roberts used a modern technique of prose dancing interpretation in class. Mrs. Thompson ' s class studied a comical and humorous material, instead of the traditional litera- ture reading. Many of Central ' s sophomores and juniors exchanged a new experience, by going on a field trip to the International Havcster on November 20th.

Although Jim Taylor listens intentively to the pep session, his thoughts are miles beyond the reach of Mr. Marr. Jim also plays the oboe in all the music concerts given by the KSfiSWi band and choir, during school and in the evenings. Only in and during the pep sessions does Jim play the drum. Music has always played a big role in the history of Central, and this year was no different. The horns blared and the drums rolled as the Marching Tiger Band strutted across the gridiron and serenaded the many fans at the basket- ball games. Under the direction of Mr. David Marr. the music department performed not only for the athletic events, but also for the important social functions of this, the last year for Central. Music was provided at the Open House held during the Fall for the PTA. The band also played at the last commencement ceremony and sections entertained at the Senior Reception. There is also the everyday entertain- ing when anyone going past the band room can be treated to a free concert. The strains of sweet and sometimes not so sweet music drifted both from the bandroom and from the football practice field. Numerous awards were won by the members of the band throughout the year. These prizes were richly de- served and can only be matched by the applause of the many fans who were so much a part of the deep traditions of Music at Central. Central ' s own music department at the end of the year awarded Lincoln Chapman both of its highly regarded prizes. He was the recipient of the Arion Award and the John Philip Sousa Award for Band. It ' s been a long time since Central had a complete orchestra, so the marching tigers finally decided to put one together. It contains the ones picked to be the most qualified for the instrument. The 1970-71 Orchestra are, ROW ONE: Rovanna Andrews, Cathy Ellis, Karen Scott, Tonya McGee, and Faith Thomas; ROW TWO: Alfred Anderson, Tara Ganaway. Debbie Spillner, Alma Chapman, Earl Alderfer.

Choir was an important part of many cen- tralites ' lives in CHS ' s final year. Here C. Followell concentrates on the lyrics and mel- ody of a tune. Sing out. Sweet Central. Indeed this could be the motto of the Central High School choirs as their singing voices made this last year more enjoyable. Not only did the choirs perform at the ma- jor concerts, but various groups enter- tained at such social events as the Se- nior Reception, at the Honors Banquet, and even the Commencement ceremonies for the last graduating class. Divisions such as the Concert Choir and the Swing Choir gave many students the chance to participate and experience a great number of various types of vocal music. The singing ran the whole list all the way from the classical music of Bach and Handel to the soul beat favored by the Soul Ensemble. Variety was truly the Choir. One note of sorrow and tragedy that the Choir and all of Central had to bear was the loss of Mr. William Wetzel, di- rector of vocal music. Mr. Wetzel was killed in an auto accident during the year. Mr. William Holloway served as the director of vocal music for the rest of the year. Miss Lenna Sis Arnold Mr. James Kiem In order for a student to work and study properly in school, lie must be physically fit. Here is where our two physical education teachers come into the picture. Sis Arnold sets up a program for her classes, keeping all the girls fit. In the fall, they worked with basketball and kinball. Leading to winter and spring activities, there was tumbling. Softball. volleyball, ping-pong. and archery. In our young men ' s department, they participated in physical exercises, then going outdoors to play flag football and softball. In the gym. they played basket- ball and all types of running activities. All students that were especially good in gymnastic exercises were awarded on Recognition Day. June 4th. Phys Ed: Education prove student ' s capabilities m i Basketball at Central has always been a large part of the Tiger Physical Education system. This has always been a time when the fine points of the game could be studied and alley ball forgotten. In Sis Arnold ' s third period gym class Cindy Cooper listens intently while Sis gives instructions and tips on how to play kinball. Volunteers from all young men ' s gym classes, rolled sod from the Central football field, in order for the new schools to have the perfection of a beautiful lawn. « % Central offered to the students, four different courses of industrial crafts, metal, wood, drafting, and auto me- chanics. Including the advice and train- ing from skilled instructors. In the first semester, there was a preparation period for industrial art students. Then, in later operations, the student went into further study of that certain craft. In each class, the student learns their capabilities and control of the tools that he uses for his project. Here, the stu- dent learns another form of vocation, while still in school. This gives the stu- dent another chance in the business ' world for a tvpe of job that doesn ' t need a white collar . Department head of industrial arts was Mr. Marvin Todd, along with the other instructors; Mr. O ' Brien, Mr. Piepenbrink. Mr. Rian, Mr. Herman. Mr. Surber, and Mr. Yager. Keeping his eyes on his wood project, Glen Hartsock works busily to the time of Mr. Rian ' s first period shop class.

Third period French students, Erma Arana, Emma Bearfield, Cynthia Thomas, and Martha Gomez, listen to one of their first year tape record- ings. While these students work with recordings, their teacher and de- partment head of the language arts, Mr. Baughman prepares their next lesson in the history, and background of famous French explorers. Mr. Baughman also teaches Spanish one, two, three, and four. These students not only learned words, sentence structures, and verb con- jugations, but their cultures, and the history of the language. Language students also gained insight into the evolution and grammatical structure of the English language. To learn the language as it is spoken in its native country. French and Span- ish students listen to it in a language lab. Even the Latin students exercise their powers of communication on occasion. On April 22.

Home Ec: Cooking classes find new recipes Under the direction of Mrs. Hewes. the sewing classes are sewing with the newest styles and fabrics. While the sewing classes are using the new styles and fabrics, the cooking classes are trying out new recipes, which they someday, may be serving to families of their own. The recipes, of which the cooking classes are using, are found by Mrs. (Durfey) Yoguelet. the Home Management teacher. The cooking classes this year, planned, cooked, and served their own Christmas banquet. They also held their annual Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow Award, who was given to Virginia Wilson. She was selected for her performance in a written knowledge and attitude examination. The Home Management class constructed a model room. They designed all their furniture, and. upholstered certain parts of the furniture. The upholstery and curtains were coordinated according to the student ' s knowledge of color schemes. The students used cardboard boxes to form their model room. Head of the home economics depart- t t v , 1- u 1 m 11 r 1 in _t v l l lr - Natalie Hewes Mr?.

Held at downtown Ayres. which was under the direction of three Central art teachers. Mrs. Wadlington. Mrs. Bu- ford, and Mrs. Minear. Later, the works were sent to the consultant offices, where Gene Porter chose the works for each school to be displayed. There were eight art students and eight displays, which showed the work of Central. Along with the usual art studies, there was also the study of ceramics, and pot- tery. These Centralites bettered them- selves bv being constructive with all the familiar, and different studies of art. Thev learned to express their feeling by a way of creation. Mrs. Carolyn Wadlington. headed the art department through another project- ed year, along with the help of Mrs. Marge Buford. Both teachers discussed in their classes the pros and cons, of their creative work. Caning a Christmas block.

Undefeated Gridtigers take city series 1971 was the last year for football for Central ' s Gridtigers. but it certainly was a year that will be remembered for a long time in the Summit City sports world. The Tigers were not to be denied as they put it all together and racked a perfect season up for the record books ' finale. Only a tie at the hands of Central Catholic marred the strong rush of eight wins in one of the city ' s tougher sched- ules. Big wins over public school foe North Side and the private school leader Luers were great spots for the rolling Bengal gridders. Strong running backs led by Clarence Bullock. Carl Whitt, Larry Harris, and the quarterback Bon Kennedy gave the Centralites something to cheer about. The backs could grind out the yardage behind a great line anchored by Daryl Thomas. Gene Myatt. Boger Turner, and Walter Slack, or they could break loose for a long gainer bringing the crowd to their feet, cheering the Bengals. A passing threat from Kennedy to ends Bon Barnes or Bob Love never let the opposition try to concentrate on the rushing attack. A quick pass to the run- ning backs also helped to keep the games wide open all year. Pursued by several Bishop Luers Knights, Clarence Bullock managed to escape for a gain of a few yards in the 19-7 victory. Bullock proved to be a real spark for the Tigers as his explosive running and his determined blocking time and again was the difference between the Bengals and many of their opponents.

Great offense is one part of putting together a winning football team, but the other idea is that when you score the other side doesn ' t. The Tiger defense did that job well. Style was the watchword of the de- fense as they excelled in picking off pass interceptions and covering fumbles. Hard down field tackling brought cheers from the fans and groans from the foe. Many times, the hard Tiger pass rush caught the quarterback looking and then brought him down hard. Line play for the Battling Bengals had all the trademarks of good, hard nosed grid spirit. Most opposition backs found it a hard job to carry the ball through the line and often an impossible job to carry it outside of the ends and corner- backs. Much credit for the excellent season has to go to the coaching. Every player knew where to go when and what to do when he got there. Head coach Doerffler planned the strategy and saw to it that coaches Howe, Herman, and Schneider got it across to the team members at practice.

Harriers run well, lack depth to place in meets Crosscountry is a lonely sport. To reach a high level of of achievement, it is necessary for a young man to spend many hours running many miles. Most often this is done by himself and done on his own time. The Tiger Harriers spent their many hours and ran their many miles but still were not often winners. As an old sports- writer once said, it is a shame that races are won by a strong set of legs and not by a determined heart. Central runners had the heart but often did not have the legs to win. Bengals also often had trouble getting in enough places to win a meet, but they were able to secure some scoring places in all of their meets. Depth was not pres- ent and this kept down the number of team wins. Seniors Alfred Anderson and Winston Wright led the harriers in this, their last season of competition. Runner of the year was Derrick Thomas, a junior. Coach of the Bengal harriers was Mr. Barrie Peterson. Peterson also serves as the assistant track coach for the Tiger Cindermen.

Under the direction of new Tennis Coach Jim Keim, the Tiger Tennis team broke a 26 meet losing streak which had lasted through the three previous sea- sons. The spark plug in this effort was ' ; Raquetman of the year Ron Sitler. Sitler won 4 of 8 matches in leading the net team to a record breaking 2-7-1 sea- son, the best since 1964. It seems fitting that the Bengals should go out with a semi-successful season. The first victory of the season came when the Tigers met the Home- stead Spartans and came home all smiles with a 6-1 triumph. The win gave the Tigers new hope. Another one of the bright spots of the season was a first-round victory of the No. 3 doubles team . in the ISHAA Sec- tional tournament. The doubles team lost in the next round, but tallied three points, which gave them ninth place in the meet. The Bengals also placed 8th in City Series competition, with their only Citv victory coming on a forfeit by Bishop Luers. Captain of the 1970 Tennis team was junior Greg Blough. Improvement was the key note to the season, but victory in the sense of win and lose proved rather scarce in this the last campaign for the Tiger netters. City crowns the Tigers ARCHERS TIP SAINTS 73-72; TI- GERS CHAMPS! This headline was read by many in the JOURNAL- GAZETTE. The article told how Central won the City Championship. Central won the City Crown for the 18th time in its history, with a 6-2 mark. The Bengals were defeated only by- Bishop Dwenger and Concordia in city- series. The tigers compiled a 15-5 mark on the regular season. They triumphed by 18 points in a revenge victory over Bishop Dwenger in the first round game of Sectional number one IHSAA Tour- ney, but lost 75-74 in an exciting over- time game to Elmhurst in the Semi- Finals. The Dillemen won Runner-up honors in the Carmel Holiday Tourney, defeat- ing Martinsville in the opening game 83-70. Defending State Runner-up, Carmel. stopped the locals by six, 71- 65, in the Championship encounter. Some of the highlights of the season were defeating Elmhurst. Dwenger. South Side, Kokomo Haworth, and An- derson. The Bengals lost by a mere 11 points to eventual State Finalist Elk- hart, in the Blazer ' s gym. Central Cagers were led by team Captain Ronald Barnes on all counts; rebounding, assists, and free-throw shoot- ing.

Grapplers 5th in state for final Tiger season Fifth in state, a goal reached by no other Fort Wayne wrestling team in its history, was the mark of the 1970-71 Grappling Tigers. Central ' s mighty mat- men won a sectional crown and a re- gional championship enroute to the State Meet. State wrestlers were Rotha Early, Kenneth Van Pelt, and Clarence Bullock. Cliff McCowan was a contender on the regional level. Central tallied fifteen points in the state final on the strength of the showing by three Tigers. In the sectionals, Central outscored the runner up Concordia Cadets by fifteen points to take the sectional title. The Bengals won the regional Crown for the first time ever by out scoring runner up Muncie Central by a familiar fifteen point margin. Overall, the Tigers. led by first year coach Tom Herman, compiled an 8-5 regular season record. After a loss to North Side, the Tigers went on to win six straight. Then came a slump when injuries hit and Central won just two of the last six. Clarence Bullock went through the regular season undefeated and lost only in the last meet of the state tourney and then only by a 7-6 decision after wres- tling well. ' I 1971 Tiger track squad last for Schneider Directed by retiring Coach Howie Schneider, the Tiger Track squads of 1970 and 1971 completed two semi- successful seasons. The 1970 team sent an individual to the State Finals in the 440 yard run. This individual Neil Brab- son. won fifth place honors for one point. This was the last tally ever for Cen- tral in the State Championship Meet. It gave CHS a tie for 40th in the state of Indiana. The 1971 Central team was typical of Tiger teams for the last few years. It had a few outstanding in- dividuals, but lacked in ' the area of depth. The ' 71 team beat Woodlan and beat Bishop Dwenger twice for a total of three victories, but lost to seven other teams. The team compiled an amazing relay invitational record defeating 26 of 35 teams competed against for a 26-9 mark. The Bengal team walked away with 3rd place honors in both the Lime City and Goshen Relays and took 6th place in the sixteen team North Side relays. The Tiger half-mile relay team went to the Regional Finals. Central ' s Dave Milligan is out of the starting blocks quickly and off to an early lead for the Tigers. Dave was a part of Central ' s Sectional Runner-up Half-Mile Relay Team. Above is the 1971 Tiger Track Team; from left to right kneeling, B. Milligan, M. Lesh. G. Kendrick, Kirk Bell, C. Whitt, M.

The Bengals were led by second year coach Robert Dornte. They had a disappointing year and ended with a campaign total of 0-17. Lack of experience and depth proved to be the biggest obstacle to the Tigers getting on the winning track. This lack of veterans and substitutes proved to be a deciding factor in a number of meets. Highlight of the season was the sec- tional where the Tigers were picked to be dead last but did manage to beat three of the teams who were predicted to beat them. The Bengals finished 18th in the field. The CHS strokers were led in most of their meets by their only returning let- terman. Earl Alderfer. Number two man through most of the season was George Bopp. Bopp at times in the season came on to challenge Alderfer for the num- ber one spot on the team.

When you see a line of faces, it ' s hard to remember That each one of them is an individual. With thoughts and feelings of their own. They ' re all different. They have their own lives to live: Their own problems to think about. Some are black, some are white, some are yellow — Others are brown or red — or mixed. They come in all sizes, shapes, and colors. But this is the last year these people will Proudly call themselves Centralites. For many years, people have come this way. They ' ve become a part of us. They ' ve emerged different from when they came in. They ' ve learned something more about life And how to live it. After all these years, it had to happen. Perhaps it ' s true that all good things must end. But does this have to be the beginning of our end? People Seniors last, yet the best Being the last class to graduate was quite an honor for the Central seniors of 1971 but it was not enough for them. They also decided that they had to be one of the best. Work for a number of projects and activities helped insure that their ambition would be realized when graduation day finally came. Seniors provided the core for the strong athletic program that helped set new records and gain new acclaim for the Tigers of Central. First place in the cities race both in football and basketball showed that the Tigers were not to be denied glory in this their final year. State finishes by three of the seniors on the Tiger wrestling team added both to the fame of Central and of the class of 1971. Academic glory came when the senior class tried their collective hands at the testing pro- grams such as the SAT and the ACT. School honors also piled up when the list of seniors was read for scholarships. Considering the number of people in the senior class. Central was among the best in the city in regard to the number of scholarships received and the total amount of money they were for. The class of 1971 is certainly sure to be remembered for all its achievements.

The high point of the year Juniors endeavored for sweet taste of success The Junior Class was the all together class in this last year at Central High School and proved it in many ways. Dissatisfied with what had happened in past years Presi- dent Sheila Dufor, Vice-President Pat Shade, and Secretary Condra Leach endeavored to see that a change was in the making. The Juniors got the mighty ball rolling when they came up with their very own Dating game. No sooner than this was over, they began selling pins with blue stones which were last momentos of our mighty school. Unwilling to accept tradition, the Class of ' 72 made up of approximately 275 mem- bers, got together with a common goal in mind. The Juniors unanimously decided to change the site of the prom. And so it was that the exquisite Sheraton Hotel was cho- sen for that special night. Test scores on the PSAT showed that the Class of 72 had the brains and the suc- ces of the many Juniors on the athletic teams showed that the Class of ' 72 had brawn. It was the good job put forth by the manv Juniors in speech, publications. GAA. and the many clubs that showed the Class of ' 72 had energy and determination. Ron Barnes was the real success story in sports as he walked away with all of the big trophies in basketball at the Letterman ' s Banquet. The work of Alma Chapman as editor of the Spotlight. Josie Shelton as editor of the Caldron, and their almost all Jun- ior staff showed just what Junior leadership was. Moreover only Juniors. 7 to be exact received the coveted Quill and Scroll award.

Our bold sophomore class was led throughout the year by their President Shirley Bledsoe (upper right. Laurietta Jordan vice-president (not shown), and Karen Scott secretary. Sophomores put mark in Central ' s long history The future Class of 73 . now sophomores, had a vastly different year than any other before. On registration day, it was easy to see that this class was like no other. In marched over 350 new faces, all different, but all alike in a strongly unique way. On the first day of school, the halls were filled with faces that reflected a combina- tion of joy and sadness. This was the final year of Central and they were to be the last class to graduate that had went to Central and they could boast of their good luck but as always summer was over and it was time for school again. As the year got under way, they elected the officers of their class. Officers for the 1970-71 year were Shirley Bledsoe (President), Laurietta Jordan (Vice-President), and Karen Scott. (Secretary). These people helped make the sophomore class what it was. Their class sponsors were Mr. James McFadden and Mrs. Marjorie Buford. The sophomore class had a fairly common year, but one in which many excelled. The highlight of the year was the sophomore dance given here in the school cafeteria. All members of the sophomore class were invited free of charge. Sophomore recognition day held on May 18 was special day set aside to honor all sophomores who worked so hard to make the last vear the best year for Central. Many of the sophomores who are forgotten on Becognition day were honored and recognized. John Alvarez. Patty Anderson, David Atkin- son, Lonnie Baatz, Cynthia Bahb, Victor Bet- ties, Allan Binning.

We have worked to make this school more Than just a building. We ' ve shown our spirit. Spirit is what differentiates a body from a person. Spirit is our pep sessions, clubs, activities, Sports, classes, and the people who make them. It was great, except for one thing: It didn ' t last long enough. Our efforts will be remembered for a long time. But then, our glory will fade. Like a fire that takes a long time to consume, And burns brightest just before it is extinguished. That ' s us. Tomorrow, things will go on as usual. The fact that Central High School no longer exists Will affect no one but us. The world will walk around us. Now is the beginning of the end.

Central, Dear Central, the end came too soon We came to Central for what seemed to have been centuries. It never changed and we felt that it would never ever change. But then it ended and it shocked us that walls of stone and mortar could have ever meant that much to us. Central was the number one school in Indi- ana for styling, and did we ever style. Maybe the noise we made hid the sound of our end Work and learn. Work and learn. Centralites did work and certainly did learn and it in the chatter of our work that the close of Central crept up on us. Central drew all of us together. We are black, we are white, we are yellow, we are red but we are Central and al- ways will be. We are musicians and we are scholars. We are intensely serious and we are a bunch of cutups. But we are still all Central. Quiet halls are a part of us just as a hectic crowd is a part of us. We are the young and the old, the past and the present but in the final accounting, we are and we will always be Central be- cause in any sort of measuring. Central ii- Strain and exert because we have to put out or the time will run out and everything will be gone. We hit the books and time went by quick- ly, so quickly that we were absorbed in beginning that was going to be our end. And we played and laughed to let go of all the tension and somehow once in a while we thought of the closing and the laughter was hollow. As the time came for Central to close its doors forever, we almost missed it. Classes went on just like normal and we did what we had to do. We studied and we worked, and we got ready for our graduation and summer, but almost we did not see Central fading away. Then it hit us and we saw that time was almost run out. It hit us at odd moments. When we were sitting quietly, it hit us. As we let a soft melody run through our minds and our bodies, we realized that that we loved would soon exist no more. Some- times it w-as when w e were sitting and thinking that the great sad thought crept in on us. Once in a while it even made us jump up with a start. Central was about to end and for the longest time it didn ' t even make an impression on us. Almost it crept past us like a dving man. But Central was not like a sick old man looking for a quiet place to die. Central was a strong feeling that was going to give birth to better things for all of us. Central did not die. It could not die because it is us and we will carry it on forever more. One of the last things that came was the cap and gown route for the graduating seniors. For over a hundred years, Centralites ex- pressed themselves in art, and now the art has ended. And classes . . . They went on and on and almost hid the beginning of our end, the close of Central. Never let it be forgot, that we did our thing There is music now but soon the sad song will begin as Central closes its doors forever. Study hall was never quiet like this, but now it will be this quiet and this empty. Jump up! Think about what Central means to you because Central is almost finished. Sometimes just sit and think that you are in a place that will soon not exist for you. Central now lives only in echoes The Beginning of the End Happiness, saddness smiles, tears Crowded hall — but soon the crowd disappears. Separation. Dedication is the now thing at school, but — The End really is a Beginning New Schools New Faces new friends to meet yet while in the confusion the great illusion of the undying spirit of Central remains locked — in the silence of the halls.
