A day dawned only to set in tragedy. That afternoon the heart of the Apollo Space Program was pierced as an accidental fire swept the capsule of the Apollo I spacecraft and killed three promising young pioneers aiming to venture a step farther toward the moon. Lieutenant Commander Roger Chaffee, a gradu- ate of Central ' s class of ' 53, was the communications ex- pert in that ill-fated capsule. Roger was an extraordinary man in many respects; in his courage, his patriotism, and philosophy of life. As a young man in his home of Grand Rapids, he at- tended Central where he was an active participant in the school band and on the football team. As a Boy Scout, he rose to a distinguished rank. He was well liked by his classmates and strove hard to excel in his studies — especially the sciences. It was this field that he pur- sued once in college and later in the Naval Service. As a pilot he dreamed of the day when he might join the quest to conquer outerspace. His dream came true in 1964, when he was selected as one of a new group of astronauts destined for orbital flights that would one day land on the moon. That year Central invited its distinguished alumnus to speak be- fore a school-wide assembly. Three years later Central again presented a program in Roger Chaffee ' s honor — this time it took the form of a memorial tribute to a fallen hero. While people mourned the untimely deaths of three astronauts. Central paid respect to a former student. Principal Roniani, who taught him as a seventh grader and coached him on the football field, revealed the mature philosophy of this young man through an essay he wrote at the age of fourteen. It brought out the reasons Roger Chaffee became the fine individual he was. Drums rolled and saddened eyes filled with tears as Mr. Romani concluded, Aye, dear friend, Roger, you set your sights high ... as high as the moon. Yes, the goals were great and the danger ever-pres- ent; yet your courage and patriotism led the way. Be- cause your spirit stands as a pillar of human strength and dedication, the yearbook staff consecrates the 1967 HELIOS to you. Lieutenant Commander Roger Bruce Chaffee — a personage among people.

Principle Personalities Focus on Ever- Changing Scene One of the most influential image-makers in the lives of Central students is Principal Romulus Romani, a dynamic personality leading the nearly 1800 junior and senior high students as well as guiding 80 faculty members. Appear- ing as a true paragon of tolerance, temperance and perception. Mr. Romani fulfills his whirl of responsibilities with vigor, enthusiasm and wisdom. Although heading Central High School is demanding, our principal finds the experience full of rewards. Among the most heartening is seeing the young students grow and m ature over the years into responsible young adults. According to Mr. Romani, A pHncipal has the over-all obligation for the total building and is directly responsible to the superintendent of schools. His ideals and goals for promoting education and maturity in Central were multi-faceted and diverse. Solving the complex drop-out problem was one of the greatest enigmas faced by the administration, and the solutions, he believes, will come only from much study and the development of a specially tailored program designed for potential drop-outs. As he explained, he hopes to even- tually eliminate a sad situation and a needless one in today ' s modem society. Though Education plays the major role at Central, Mr. Romani often faces the human side of student-administration relations. With a family of six chil- dren, the leader of Central ' s complex frequently faces the same adolescent problems at school as he does at home. In his small amount of spare time, Mr. Romani enjoys being with his children and playing an occasional game of golf to ease the tensions of the hectic pace he faces during the school year. To sum up Mr. Romani in words is not easy; but as one student candidly remarked after leaving his office, He ' s really a pretty nice guy. 20 Wesley Perrin, Assistant Instructional Principal, feels Central has greatly improved within the past five years. In addition to a renewed student pride in Central, he has also found students to have an overall improved out- look on Education. Guiding programs for the student and faculty during the school year, he also acquainted the new teachers to the studies and surroundings of Central. Before becom- ing assistant principal Mr. Perrin spent five years as head counselor. He also supendsed the night school classes held in the building during the past several years. Both jobs have given him added experience in the field of student-administration relations. One of the few major difficulties Mr. Perrin believed should be given added attention here at Central is the lax attendance records of some of the students during the past year. This, he felt, leads to a possible lack of interest in studies and could even lead students to drop out of school. In the key position of assistant principal Mr. Perrin leads a hectic but satisfying pace. However, experiences at Central have been very rewarding ones for Mr. Per- rin. and he hopes to continue helping the school to his liest capacity. Mr. George Cleveland, in his second year as Admin- istrative Assistant Principal was again presented with challenging responsibilities. Long hours of work, how- ever, did not hamper his enthusiasm for accomplishing many tasks; improving student-faculty communication, disciplining student violators, and organizing Central ' s schedule of assemblies. Mr. Cleveland also played a major role in helping lower the rising rate of absen- teeism during the year. His main goal in assisting Principal Romani was to help keep Central ' s image high in the public eye by making certain school rules were observed and respect- ed. Always on the go, Mr. Cleveland spent much of his time speaking before interested groups of parents or contacting individuals concerning school policies. He felt that CentraFs staff of teachers, besides exe- cuting excellent curricula, worked well with the adminstration in solving many of Central ' s disciplinary ' problems. He also believed Central ' s staff was well qualified to work with student problems. When school hours are over, he finds relaxation in spending much of his spare time with his wife and four children. He also has great enthusiasm for hunt- ing and tries to make occasional trips to his favorite hunting grounds in Texas or Mexico during his vacation. Mr. Wesley Perrin, Instructional Assistont Principal, tant facets ' n school curriculum. Administrative Assistant Pri list of stucients appointmen :ipal George CleaveloncJ, goe Counselors Smooth Path for Students Always available to solve the trying problems that often arise. Central ' s counselors are constantly combat- ing a variety of student problems: potential drop-outs, vocational training, college plans and entrance questions. Taking pride in their modern offices which were re- cently remodeled for privacy, the counselors worked in a light, cheerful atmosphere. Though often deluged with paperwork, the four counselors were always happy to do everything possible for the students and answer their questions. Problems were handled to the benefit of the student through their system of dividing the pupils into grades and then alphabetically. This system makes communication much more effective and each counselor performs his duties without confusion. Three of the counselors were newcomers to Central this year; Miss Feringa, Mr. Raterink, and head counselor. Mr. Galant. In the words of Mr. Galant, speaking for the entire staff, We are very impressed with the willingness to learn displayed by the students in Central High School, and it is our hope that this positive attitude will motivate our student body to develop their skills for future endeavors.

The Department progressed with the thought that indi- vidual growth is more important than intelligence, a need more demanding than success. Two contributing factors in the Department ' s success in achieving individualism were Science Research Associates read- ing laboratories and teacher aides. The S.R.A. reading laboratories are multilevel reading kits which allow students to begin at their level of reading and progress at their individual rates, so to insure maximum a- chievement. The Fused Department feels that the S.R.A. certainly has its advantages, and members are regretful that this method of teaching is not explored throughout the school. Teacher aides, which originated this past year, processed much of the clerical work the teachers ordinarily handle. Mr. Redd, a seventh grade teacher, believed aids were a great help. The aides seem to agree: It ' s a great program, but it needs im- provements were the statements received while interv iewing two teacher aides. Possessing a true de- sire to understand and aid their students, the Depart- ment strove to reach its established goals and with the addition of supplementary materials within each class- room hopes to develop skills and independent progress. An interesting sidelight was Mrs. Wingier ' s assign- ments which sparked the year with a study of street names in Grand Rapids and letters to the soldiers fighting in Viet Nam.

With the many uses of English needed in all phases of life, the department faculty were constantly impressing upon the students the importance of the subject to their future. Every possible method, such as recordings and films were secured to instill appreciation and understanding of the language in their pupils. The basic fundamen- tals of English were mainly stressed throughout junior high, while in the upper grades the concentration was placed more on American and English literature and composition. English molded itself to the individual student at Cen- tral in the senior high grades through three types of English instruction : Basic, Regular, and Honors. In this way Miss Schriber, department head, felt that the diffi- culties of teaching English have been minimized, and the student is given the chance to develop according to his own talents. In an effort to keep up with the changing aspects of English, many of the teachers in that department are presently working on their master ' s degree and two. Miss Schriber and Mrs. Wanderscheid, have received theirs. Gaining experience toward a career in teaching, while still in high school, was achieved this year by the mem- bers of the Future Teachers Club. During the year, members undertook various helpful activities by partici- pating in a student counseling service sponsored by the Student Council and acting as teacher aids. In the words of Mrs. Kemp, The club offered an opportunity to per- form a service for others while they helped themselves. Also, by participating in the club, members were able to decide whether they were sure of their choice of vo- cation. Investigating every aspect of teaching, the group listened to many guest speakers, such as student teach- ers, experienced teachers, and administrators.

The field of education is bearing the full impact of this oft-repeated expression. And this is true of Special Education, too, Miss Westra, head of the Department, said as she expressed her views about this area of education. A special study committee has been busy on a city- wide scale re-evaluating the present organization of the department, its curriculum and its goals as well as its aims. According to Miss Westra, the study concluded that, in the main, a good program for helping students who require special assistance in their studies existed, and only details needed improvement. In recent years changes included a graduation course and a job placement service. Participation in sports was also encouraged, with eligibility the only requirement. To meet the needs of the individual student with a realistic program that enabled him to progress at his own rate of learning was the greatest challenge to the dedicated teachers in this department.

This has been done, says French instructor Nancy Bull. ' To help students become more familiar with the lan- guage as it is spoken. Available to all students after their first two years in junior high school, the diverse curriculum offered Latin. Spanish, and French. German, added last year, has not been taught in the Grand Rapids school system since 1917. Tape recordings, films, and records have been utilized as helpmates in the modernized language lab. As one senior language student concluded. ' Foreign languages are fun to learn and are useful in learning one ' s own lansiuase as well. German students turn to the language lab to S aid them in spealting during their class period. 29 Math Stimulates Logical Understanding Using the modern approach to learning, Central ' s Mathematics Department revamped its entire cur- riculum last year. Every grade felt the change, from seventh grade basic arithmetic to senior analysis. New textbooks and teaching concepts flooded the depart- ment with contemporary ideas. Department head Marvin Ten Elshof believed, now that the system has been firmly established, that not only the students bene- fited from the modern concept, but the teachers also found the subject easier to instruct. One of the many innovations to the mathematics instructors was the use of audio-visual aids, such as the overhead pro- jectors, to help correct homework and view basic problems. Associated with the Michigan and National Councils of Mathematics Teachers the department was able to keep in constant touch with other mathematicians throughout the nation to learn new and more diverse methods of instruction. As Mr. Ten Elshof stated, Through ' New Math ' we are better able to equip and prepare students to use basic skills and operations. It makes them think and prepare for the future. Marvin Ten Elshof Mathematics, Department Head Allen Marcus Mathematics Individual aid is one of the teach- ing techniques often used by Miss Vedejs, a general math teacher. 30 Diligent students work eagerly to finish their olgebri assignment given by Mr. Schut. 31 Mysteries of Science Appeal to Gentralites With science, an ever-growing field of importance in the world of advanced technology, many modern courses were offered at Central. Students could select from a variety of scientific programs on the high school level. The junior high was given the basic fundamentals in their curricula during their first two years. From the ninth through the twelfth grades, pupils were offered choices in biology, earth science, chemistry, physiology, and physics. Mr. Ten Have, department head, felt that Central has a well balanced program of scientific education for the student as well as having capable educators. The faculty is linked to the Michigan Science Teachers and the National Sci- ence Teachers Associations. Mr. Ten Have also re- ported that students with ability were encouraged to participate annually in the Kent County Student Fair. During the past year, two of the department mem- bers worked on interesting projects. Mr. Schultz ex- perimented with different text materials other than the prescribed text books and also urged his junior high students to experiment with simple projects at home as well as in class. Mr. Ten Have wrote a new seventh and eighth grade curriculum program.

The main goals of the Depart- ment were to produce well-informed, better qualified, and skilled persons for gainful employment in the busi- ness world. The Department strove to improve the stu- dents ' grammar and vocabulary, as well as spelling. Spelling and business math tests also proved to be in- centives for the students to do better. Through the Department ' s modern equipment such as latest electric typewriters and a great variety of office machines, the Department was able to teach students newer and bet- ter techniques. Greatest assistance the Department received in gain- ing its high goals of achievement stemmed from a co- operative agreement with private employers, whereby students could work half days and attain credits as well as wages for their work. Mr. Adrian VanDop, head of the Department, explained that at the present time the entire business curriculum is being reviewed city-wide. An innovation at Central, we now have a typing course designed so that students progress at their own individual rates rather than group instruction. This method of teaching has been used successfully for three years in the bookkeeping course. This year, the De- partment had the addition of two new teachers Mrs. Ellen Munson and Miss Mary Pelletier.

An outstanding student of the Department was Gerry Benham, the only boy taking these courses in his preparations for a career as a chef. Serving as a val- uable assistant to Mrs. Orlyk, Gerry also lent his en- thusiasm to the large number of future homemakers. Increased enrollment over the past five years has indicated the Home Economics Department to be one of the most popular areas of education. The main goals stressed by the department head, Mrs. Orlyk, were to make the students familiar with foods, preparations, and good health habits. The advanced courses in foods, and clothing attempt to make the girls better homemakers and also to introduce them to enjoyable careers available in that field.

The main purpose of the department is to teach the proper use of tools and machines and to ac- quaint students with several phases of vocational courses. Classes were offered to seventh and eighth grade boys. Graphic arts, mechanical drawing, machine shop, and woodworking were open to upperclassmen as two year elections. The department welcomed many improve- ments such as lecturers from business and industry, a field trip to Michigan State University, and also work- shops that were open every Tuesday and Thursday night along with the regular study center. These activities provided further opportunities for students to advance their interests, and gain insight in the workings of in- dustry.

King, head of the Social Studies Department. It may be said that the proc- ess of teaching is the equivalent to that of learning. Striving for perfection, the Social Studies Department has been curious, has searched energetically, and has ana- lyzed with an open mind new teaching methods. The im- provement of the department resides with each class- room teacher. Each teacher had academic freedom to trv proven new ideas, to improve the learning process. The areas of improvements in the department in the past years have been : the use of paperback materials, a nearly uniform marking system adopted by four of the teachers in the department, the employment of the voting machine for classroom elections and mock governmental elec- tions, the utilization of more resource persons, and an increased emphasis on current events and an awareness of the society one lives in. Three teachers in the department who are working on advanced degrees are Mr. King, Mr. Mandeville, and Mr. Hecker.

Art and Music Explore Fine Arts With an ever-increasing student participation. Central ' s Art Department strove unceasingly to bring the broadest possible opportunities to junior artists. From the beginning of high school training students learned to appreciate art and its wide course of enjoy- ment and fulfillment. Junior high pupils discovered such things as perspective, color, form, and balance in their first years of intensive learning. Once familiar with the basic fundamentals of the art program, senior high students were offered more specialized courses involving oil painting, water color, ceramics, and art history. Art I, the beginning of the senior high pro- gram was followed by Art 11. Ill, and IV; though com- bined in one class, it studied each category with more intensive research. Talent, an important requirement. was further developed through Central ' s capable staff. The Art Department consisted of two full-time teach- ers Mr. Duquette and Miss DeLoof and filling a part- time position was Mrs. Verbrugge, who decided to continue teaching art for a portion of the day in addi- tion to maintaining a home and family. As part of the overall public school program both Mr. Duquette and Miss DeLoof conducted Art Workshops at Central. Teachers from all city schools attended. As a climax of the school year the Art Department participated in the city-wide Student Exhibit in Febru- ary at the local Art Gallery and also sponsored a clothes-line show for the Central student body dur- ing the spring.

The three instructors, teaching every grade from junior high through advanced classes, have eagerly worked to provide new and inter- esting material. Mr. Schellenberger. director of vocal music, feels music should play an important part in the lives of even,- student. Trying to develop an understanding and appre- ciation of all forms of music, his choir has performed standard concert works as well as contemporary mate- rials. Mrs. Roman has tried to develop choir techniques and provide many experiences in general music classes for her junior high students. Mr. Becker, director of instrumental music, set his goals for the year to make his musicians feel at ease and be proud of their parts in Mr. Becker helps junior high students polish one of their selections JJ the band. Mr. Becker expressed a feeling of pride for his students who achieved the mark of excellence at the Solo and Band Orchestra Festivals held during the year. In their attempt to widen the scope of the department, these faculty members have encouraged the skills of both singers and musicians. In recent years they have also built up an extensive music library and organized two new singing groups, the Madrigals and the Ram- bleers. .

Stricter rule enforcement was a contributing factor in the elimination of many discipline problems. As one student commented, Since the new study hall code has been set, things are really taking shape. The study hall teachers have also been a great asset to their department. Being well-qualified teachers in various fields, they provided a helping hand to students troubled over their school work. Dedication unlimited provided the stimulus needed to keep Centralites eagerly at their studies. In Mr. Abbott ' s study hall students take advantage of the many study aids available. Arland Abbot!

Driver ' s Training instructor. Mr. Barcheski expressed the opinion that, The field of Drivers Education is wide open to adults willing to take the time and the patience to teach. Students hoping to take their place on the busy roads need expert instruction in the many guidelines necessary for safety. He also pointed out, The student respect for the instructor and for the rules over the past few years have greatly improved. Central ' s traiping program began in the classroom with films on auto safety and precautions. Eligible students then progressed to the Central driving range located on the grounds of the Board of Education Service and Supply building. Here the pupils learned to drive on the model street complete with street signs and parking facilities. During the time spent on the range student drivers gained experience for their final barrier, the actual road tests. With driving certificates in hand, the novice drivers were allowed to prove themselves qualified to handle automobiles before the local authorities for their legal licenses. Emphasis on Sound Bodies Stressed In an effort to keep Central ' s students physically as well as educationally fit, Mr. Fox. department head, has attempted to greatly expand and improve the gym- nastics program. In an effort to expose the pupils to as many activities as possible the Physical Education Department has used a variety of enjoyable means of exercise. Working on the trampoline, practicing the skills of volleyball, enjoying the excitement of a fast basketball match, all were experiences remembered as part of the fitness program followed by the school. The department has made every effort in the past year to expand its facilities and assortment of equip- ment in an effort to keep a full time program of fitness running every day of the week as well as meeting standards of physical fitness. Mr. Fox, who holds a master ' s degree in Physical Education, was assisted by three new teachers at Central. With four enthusiastic rooters for fitness, the gym staff tried to bring the enjoyment of sports to every student in the school. Larry Barcheski er Training, Coach James Fox Physical Education Athletic Director 40 Offices Devote Time and Effort It takes more than typing, shorthand, and an ability to file to be a good high school secretary. Central ' s sec- retaries must also have patience, understanding, and a real liking for young people. Their jobs vary but center around the regular secretarial chores. They make an- nouncements, type notices and letters, answer phones, take messages, keep records up to date, and supervise general office duties. Mrs. Welmerink states, Work in a school office is very rewarding. It is interesting and different from most office jobs in that there is so little routine. As part of her secretarial chores.

Problems of absences, tardiness, and truency were attacked daily by Mrs. Campau and Mrs. Mottashed. At 7:30 every morning rain or shine, they were in the attendance office checking records and answering the phone, which rang about 125 times a day and on bad days when it rained or snowed the phone rang as often as 250 times. In addition to the ladies, about 15 volunteers helped work in the office. They ran errands, answered the phones, and made themselves useful. Their sincere desire to work with young people helped Mrs. Mottashed and Mrs. Campau strengthen their relationships with students and keep up with the rigors of the job. They felt their part in helping to keep students in school and insuring their future is a worthwhile never ending vigil. Jane Campau Attendance Secretary Unselfish Staffs Serve Central Early every morning, long before the halls become crowded with students, the dedicated cooks who pro- vide Central ' s students with hearty lunches are already busy at work in the cafeteria kitchen. Making home- made breads and desserts to complement the hot lunches, the five cooks use an assembly line process to efficiently handle the 400 students who daily queued up for their dinners. L nder the government-sponsored program the cafeteria stafi ably sersed the best well- balanced meals possible. When the last student had finally eaten, the staff was then faced with the monumental task of cleaning up the large, modern cafeteria. Finally at 3 oclock, the cooks hung up their aprons and closed the cafeteria doors for another day.

Glancing back into their fleeting last year the seniors recalled a kaleidoscope of memories. The ab- sence of our vice president, elected in the spring, neces- sitated another election to decide on a replacement. Dick Oole. Ushering in the fall season, CAMELOT was Central ' s picturesque and romantic Homecoming Dance with a reigning court of senior beauties. This was fol- lowed by an extremely successful play entitled Come Out of the Closet . Fall also brought a victorious foot- ball season, filling every senior with the pride that the City Championship came in 66-67 their year. With winter came increasing demands: college entrance ex- ams, military notices, anil the never ending circle of classes and homework. CASINO ROYALE, the an- nual twirp dance provided an entertaining break from the many facets of the grueling pace. The Senior Banquet, a new event was enjoyed by many. With the flurry of spring activities came plans for Class Day, Class Night, and Numeral Day all leading up to the one big day for which seniors had been waiting. June 8, 1967 brought graduation and diplomas to the proud and full-fledged members ready for the adult world. The year was saddened by the death of fellow class- mate Susan Jarmolowski.

With the help of the entire school body $250.00 was raised and presented to the foundation in her name at a class meeting.

P|k1 n| 1 1 B r p wi SH f ' ■ -- ' -I- ' .-:_._ Having reached another plateau with only the sum- mit remaining, the juniors strove hard to achieve the experience needed to become mature and responsible seniors. They opened their year with the election of new class officers, and for the first time, the juniors had two presidents. This peculiar situation arose after the junior class had three elections; the presidency being tied each time. New ideas were brought out and expressed at class meetings under the guidance of their advisor, Mr. Hecker. The arrival of the class rings, the bus trip to Mount Pleasant, and the Sadie Hawkins Dance were just a few of the events which gave the juniors an opportunity to accept responsibility. Their biggest activity of the year was the co-sponsored Junior-Senior Prom which brought the juniors a year closer to becoming graduating seniors.

They took part in Senior High Student Council, clubs, athletics, dances, and other senior high activities to prove their rel iability and maturity. For the first time in their school life the sophomores elected officers to represent them. With a feminine foursome holding all of the official posts the sophomore class was unique. Enthusiastically sponsoring many projects and ac- tivities, the sophomores eagerly attended their first senior high dances: the autumn Homecoming and the Valentines Day Boys ' Heaven . Under the guidance of their advisor, Mr. Spaan, the sophomore class proved itself to be a capable member of the already established senior high school system. Highlighting their year was the honor of helping the juniors and seniors with the responsibilities of the Junior-Senior Prom.

With the experience they gained, they were preparing for the participation in senior high affairs. Their responsi- bilities ranged from ushering at junior high assemblies to participating in Student Council and Red Cross at the junior high level to competitive frosh football and basketball. They ran for a variety of offices, and this year headed the Junior High Student Council. As a climatic ending to their years in junior high, the freshmen undertook their greatest responsibility in helping the Junior High Student Council plan the an- nual Victor ' s Ball . This semi-formal dance, held after the elections of the next year ' s student council officers, served to inform the underclassmen of the win- ning candidates. After three years of guided learning, the Victor ' s Ball climaxed an end to a life they had accepted for 900 school days and opened a new door into an evert more challenging curriculum and satisfy- ing responsibilities.

The established eighth graders took their first step in a march of events that will pattern their lives to come. They had the difficult task of choosing which courses they would follow through their remain- ing years at Central, preparing them for the future. It was a time for the individual to decide on a course of study : college preparatory, general, or vocational. Many of the eighth graders actively participated in such extracurricular programs as Junior High Student Council, Red Cross, and the sports program. Firmly entrenched in school life, this class has embarked on the roads which they would ultimately pursue.

Immediately, the seventh graders realized the task of adjusting, understanding and con- quering the halls, teachers, and high school system. With these problems behind them, the seventh graders found the academic program offered vastly different areas of learning in which they could develop their interests. Participation in clubs and other organizations gave the seventh graders a chance to mature and thus marked the end of their childhood, and the structure of their high school lives began. A vital step in these young peoples lives, the seventh grade proved to be an interesting, adventurous, and educational year for the beginners of Central High.

Ottawa Victory Highlights Homecoming Homecoming festivities for 1966 began Friday after- noon, October 28, with the traditional Homecoming Assembly, at which the queen was officially crowned by principal Mr. Romani. That night the Rams battled the Ottawa Indians for a 21-19 victory to make Central the only undefeated team in the city. At half-time the long awaited moment arrived when the court was pre- sented to the public. Victory was celebrated Saturday night at the Homecoming dance, Camelot, sponsored by the Senior Class and the Senior Student Council. Northeast Junior High gymnasium was transformed into Northeast Castle for the occasion, complete with a throne for the queen. Over 250 people attended the dance; in the words of a faculty member who attended, It was the best Homecoming that Central has had in a long time! Sue seemed astonished as shi assembly when results of the were announced. as named queen during the pep Senior boys consider it a pleasure to escort the girls during half-time. 116 r nu Okay, everybody, hold it!

Central found that the Class of 67 had surprising acting talents when Come Out of the Closet, ' a light comedy, was presented by the Senior Class. The seniors turned out a professional job with the help of director Mrs. VandenElst, assistant director Miss Blair, student directors Nancy Cooper and Bonnie Williams, as well as promptors Linda Forbes and Sue Kapteyn. The play involved three young girls on their own in the proverbial big city. All had different reasons for the venture. Gail Gazella. as Hilda Hawkins, had a secretarial job awaiting her: Jenny Potts, played by Sharon Vergouwe, had won a talent contest and was there to have a screen test: Irene Gleason. portrayed by Bertha Black, came to be with her fiancee. George Hanson, played by Mark Jenkins. When they rented an apartment they became involved with a counterfeiting ring that had its head- quarters in the girls ' closet, hence, the title. To compli- cate matters, the girls found themselves sharing the kitchen with a family that had a newborn baby. As the plot developed, the girls endured many zany exploits. The cast gave three performances, a junior high matinee November 17, and evening performances November 18 and 19. The spontaneous reactions of the audience indicated that Come Out of the Closet was a tre- mendous success.

Varied Programs Combat Boredom Classes needn ' t be monotonous. Centralites would testify after the past year. Employed in classrooms throughout the school were many new ideas to keep interest running high. Audio-visual aids, movies, slides, tape recordings, and records, were found to relate with almost every course of study. Students became accus- tomed to the film or slide projectors in the classroom, as they did to tape recorders, which were used possibly to record a choral reading of a poem or to aid a stu- dent with a special report. Each senior high English class employed sets of LP records that accompanied their literature courses. The relationship of the hu- manities to history, English, and foreign languages was emphasized by lectures by Mr. Duquette and Mrs. Roman, who spoke frequently on their respective fields of art and music. These programs offering a variety of classroom experiences added depth to the subjects and kept students interested.

Assemblies Afford Welcome Diversion School days were frequently sparked with assemblies designed to inspire, teach, or just entertain the stu- dents and faculty. Programs were presented through- out the year to capture everyone ' s interest. Perhaps the most familiar occurred the sixth hour of many Fridays — pep rallies to cheer the Rams to victory. As successful sports seasons were recalled, the numerous pep assemblies certainly accomplished their inspira- tional purpose. Particularly inspirational were the memorial services held this year — the annual Veterans Day Assembly and the special program honoring the late astronaut Roger Chaffee, a former Central gradu- ate. The student body used assemblies at intervals to become familiar with various school policies. Popular among the seventh and eighth grades were the annual spelling contests witnessed by members of both grades. It was also discovered that education and entertain- ment could be combined in assembly. Both students and faculty especially enjoyed a lively slide presenta- tion about Brazil ' s new capital city, Brazilia. A spe- cial concession was made for junior high students who attended matinee performances of the Senior Play and the Variety Show held during the school hours. The 1966-67 schedule of assemblies and programs proved that the tedium of routine school life could be reduced by assemblies. A duet for coronets, Allegro by Teleman, played by Karen Johonsen and Joel Dunn highlighted the Na- tional Honor Society induction assembly. 122 ■r ' fl ■ K t dl Bl HHK ' - ' ' ILmI Knat r w T •I ■honor i 1 Hyfi hi H ft As Ihey carry flowers to the monument in front of school, Valerie Bannister and Jim Zorafonetis reflect liie solemn emotions of every- one during tfie assembly held in honor of Apollo aslronout Roger Chaffee.

NBC television cameras recorded the memorial sc held for Roger Chaffee at Central on Januory 31. Taking advantage of numerous pep assembli-es, the student body and cheerleaders spurred the Rams to victory. Assemblies Break Routine For the first time in Central ' s liistory two students, rather than guests, spoke at the traditional Veteran ' s Day Assembly. Karen Long gave a dramatic reading, Armistice Day , by Roselle Montgomery. An original oration on the meaning and origin of Veteran ' s Day was presented by Keith Jenkins. 1 Sfc llL_ iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiifil 124 In the Christmas Assembly, the Senior Choir song every- one into the Christmas spirit with their presentation of traditional yuletide songs. Through the expert direction of Mr. Becker, the Senior Orche tra set the mood for many assemblies this year. Football team and students stood in honor of former staff membei Charles Irwin, guest speaker at the assembly honoring Central ' ; undefeated City Championship team. 125 Mr, Loham and Mr. Butler head the line of teachers eager to begin the meal prepared for them at the Student Council-Faculty Potluck, held after school February 21. Friendly Relationships Shared Outside Classroom Activities of faculty members covered a wide range outside their usual classroom duties. Lingering after classes for conversation with students or stopping them in the hall to talk were the beginnings of many in- formal friendly relationships. Teachers devoted much time and energy to meetings and activities as club sponsors. Coaches, too, contributed a great number of extra hours to produce winning athletic teams and spirit. The Faculty-C Club game, when the male faculty members test their basketball skill against the Varsity Club, is always a Standing Room Only event, immensly enjoyed by all every year. The faculty team was assisted by teacher-cheerleaders who added to the fun with their informal cheers. In ways too numerous to mention, Central ' s faculty members and students enjoyed associations beyond usual professional student-teacher relationships. Truly in the Christmas spirit on the last day before winter vQcotion Miss Chapman generously served a piece of holi- day coke to anyone who stopped in her room. 126 Carol Heothington serves Mr. Ellis and Miss Schriber ol the Christmas Coffee sponsored by the Foods II classes to which all teachers were invited to take a time-out from classes. 127 Central Reaps Benefits of Federal Aid Students and faculty have enjoyed many additions to school and curriculum made possible by federal funds appropriated by the Aid to Secondary Schools Act. Central was involved in two phases of this bill, referred to as Title One and Title Two. Title One was concerned with making better educational services available to children from low income families. Pro- grams at Central under this grant include the Neigh- borhood Youth Corps, which provides part-time em- ployment for students so they can earn money and go to school simultaneously; Running Start, a summer program to familiarize students fresh from elementary schools with study programs and high school methods before they start school ; and teacher aids, who want to further their training or familiarize themselves with the field of teaching. Two aids assisted junior high teachers by correcting papers and occasionally con- ducting class, and two worked with Mrs. Brower in the library. A sum of $2,800 was allotted to Central for the purchase of library and audio-visual materials as well as instructional aids such as movies and record series under Title Two. Nearly three-quarters of this amount was used to augment the Central High Library. Remainder of the sum provided other instructional aids. This included encyclopedia sets for every junior high fused classroom and a complete set of sociology textbooks for personal adjustment classes. Students and teachers agreed that Central ' s b enefits from federal funds far exceeded the actual monetary value. Mrs. Brower was faced loging and shelving th from Tifle Two.

Teacher ' s aid Mrs. Ido Cook almost doubles teacher ' s time by being available for such things as individual help for Bolbo Jansons and Lindo Nesbit in doss. Calvin Camp and Alonzo Thomas find a wide field of study aids available to them provided by Title Two. 129 TWIRP Week Climaxed by Casino Royale Traditional TWIRP week was observed at Central this year February 20-25. Co-chairmen Shirley Meyaard and Dick Oole scheduled a full slate of events for that week, topped off on Saturday by the annual turn-about dance Boys ' Heaven. Monday initiated the week ' s activities as Telegram Day when boys received telegrams from the girls who planned to take them to the dance. Tuesday was Willingness Day, when all girls were treated as courteously as they should have been all year. This was followed by Mr. Irrestible Day, when each girl was given a bow to wear. When they spoke to any boy other than their date for the dance, they had to forfeit their bows to him. The boy with the most bows at the end of the day was crowned Mr. Irrestible at the dance Saturday. Everyone was surprised to find that there were two winners in a tie — Larry McLemore and Jeff Linderman. A special issue of the RAMPAGES commemorated Thursday, RAMPAGES Day. Friday was Power Day, when spirit signs and booster badges urged the Rams to a victory over Creston for the Rams ' first city basketball cham- pionship in nine years. This entire week was a crescendo, building up to Casino Royale, the dance on Saturday. The Latvian Hall was transformed into James Bond ' s favorite casino for the occasion. Dreamy dancing music to fit the mood was provided by Central ' s Swing Band and stereo tapes. The next Monday morning students found themselves again in the usual school routine, fondly remembering the most active TWIRP season Central has ever had. Mr. and Mr students. Raterink proved that do It only fo Freshmen girls kept a ready supply of refresh- ments for couples such as Donna Barker and Bill Sigmund, who stopped for a rest. 130 Steve Frasier, Chris Pocsta, Bill Darling, and his dale re- laxed while enjoying the decorations at the Latvia n Hall. Louise Mull, Roberto Palma, Karen MocDonald, Diana Muller, Bob Mu and Earl Seelye enjoyed the mood and music of Casino Royo e. Enthusiastic couples crowded the floor, dancing to the music of Central ' s Swing Band. «1 i 1 W wip r M 3 l ' W r, wr m People Volunteer Talents; Many unselfish people volunteered services through their organizations to benefit Central and the com- munity. These students devoted their free time, whether a few minutes or several hours a week, to assist others or provide services that benefit the whole school. Stu- dent Council ' s numerous and varied projects in addi- tion to the services given by the Library Club and the runners in the offices were programs that contribute to Central as a whole. Agona Club ' s senice projects, the KIDS program, as well as Big Brother-Sister pro- vided help to individuals who were in need. Through their services, these volunteers realized the pleasure in giving, as well as the satisfaction of knowing they ' re providing a great contribution to Central.

Activities Abound After Three 0 ' Clock Whether involving a few or a great number, activity always continued long after the three o ' clock dismissal bell had rung. Club meetings, class projects, athletic training, independent study or extra help found every student and teacher involved in after-school hours at one time or another. In the gym laughter might be the reason as the C-Club challenged the Faculty to a fun-filled hour of basketball. In other sections of the building detailed events such as the Senior Play or the Variety Show were the cause of time spent on different committees. Muffled conversations mingled with prob- lems to solve and questions to answer were continued after dismissal. Even as lights burned throughout the evenings students took advantage of night school classes and valuable time in the Study Center. Thus, the final bell did not curtail life within Central; rather industriousness coupled with desire produced reward- ing results. The Junior Girls Chorus Line worlted intensely during Variety Show rehearsals to perfect their routine. 134 Mr. Romani worms up before the Foculty-C Club gome. Free time after school affords Marie Van Zweden an opportunity to further he experiments for biology class. 135 Only two errors fhis time! is a happy exlomation after comple tion of a timed writing in typing class. Students Strive to Extend Potential Many Central students found that the key to their academic success was exerting extra effort to expand their capabilities and capacities for learning. Trying their hardest in a test or spending extra time studying, they put forth the effort needed to fulfill their potential. There were found many opportunities for extra study- ing time. Student Council established the Morning Study Hall and provided Council members to super- vise and lend a helping hand. Tuesday and Thursday nights, from 6:30 to 8:30, the Study Center in the library was open to students to receive extra help from the teachers who were there and to make use of the library materials available. In regular classes, too, people exerted that something extra to do their best, while searching for an answer during a test, or racing downcourt to make a basket in gym class. Throughout Central, students put forth all their effort to realize and develop their potentials. Tom Baird tries for a perfect tiead stand to scort tics test in ptiysicol ed ucation. 136 DIanna Muller and Karen MacDonald know that the extra time be fore schoal can be put to good use in Morning Study Hall; her. they get assistance from Jim VanAtta.

Unique Approaches to Teaching Arouse Incentive students from Mrs. Pulliam ' s English class use art exhibit for inspiration in their writing. Teachers at Central used their active imagination to inject new ideas into their classes. The occasional di- versions they created helped show, students a new or different prospective of their daily studies. Several teachers set up projects to show students the practical applications of their fields of study. For example, Miss Pelletier ' s secretarial classes visited the offices of Steel- case, and Mr. Butler ' s earth science class toured the Grand Rapids Gypsum Mines. Foreign language and music departments collaborated to teach language stu- dents Christmas carols in their respective languages. Faculty members also tried various methods to in- spire or encourage their students. Mr. Barkema ' s stu- dents read poetry by candlelight to explore the effect of surroundings on the mood that literature creates; Miss Schriber ' s Senior English class experimented with musical moods and creative writing. These occasional diversions from regular classroom procedures provided students with a fresh outlook on their studies. 138 Sue Kapteyn and Tom Partenan, in Mr. Greig ' s physiology class, find it a challenge to apply classroom-gained knowledge to the real situation of disecting a fetal pig. Current events, geography, and English composition were combined in Mrs. Wingiers seventh grade ' s project of writing holiday letters to local servicemen stationed overseas at Christmas. 139 Mrs. Roman ' s seventh graders write words and music for an original Christmas Carol. The composers are: First Row, L. Lee, K. Mullen, L. Gadsby, R. Can. Second Row, J. Berry, K. Wnuk, B. Bland, D. Huff- man, F. Wismor.

The whirl of events began on May 4 with Numeral Day when, before the faculty and student body, the seniors unveiled their bronze ' 67 numeral, set in front of school. Dick Oole, elected by the class, was speaker for this an- nual gathering. Next on the agenda, Class Night and Class Day provided a program where the seniors re- viewed the past year for parents and friends, noting the achievements of their class. Warren Brauer, chosen by seniors, delivered the main address. Last social fling of the year, produced through hard work and co-opera- tion between the juniors and seniors, was the Prom, held on May 27 at Green Ridge Country Club. And then the finale — June 8 — dawned bright and clear for gradua- tion ceremonies, ending a chapter in 232 lives. The speaker, Gus Harrison, Head of Michigan State Board of Corrections, highlighted the final activity of the year. Pete VanEuwen, Bob Burke, and George Cook ( nervously before graduation exercises. 142 Donna McGregor, Girl Advisor, presided over the many meeting necessary to plan the Prom, held at Green Ridge Country Club.

Student Council Engrossed by Multitude of Projects Student government, provided by the Senior student council, was exercised at Central this year along with the process of education. Nominated students from each homeroom worked together to develop leadership and to perform services for the school. Ideas for solving prob- lems, methods for improving conditions in the school, and suggestions for money making projects were dis- cussed at Student Council meetings. During this past year the senior Student Council ini- tiated several activities for the entire student body and the community. A popular social function, sponsored by this group was the annual Boy ' s Heaven Dance, which culminated twirp week. The Early Bird study hgll was revived for students who arrived at school early and wanted to use their time to study. Held in room 318, it was supervised by the Student Council members. Pep Week was set aside for reviving students ' spirit of good sportsmanship. During this week each day was designated for a different way to stimulate the students ' loyalty to Central. For a change of pace, and a chance to see how other schools function, students applied to the Council for the privilege of visiting another school on Exchange Day. For the community the Student Council engages in projects at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Nearly 20 underprivileged families were given generous baskets of food for holiday meals. These varied and useful activities served to unite the entire student body in functioning as a well organized society. 146 In a democratic atmosphere student government Is practiced at the regular meetings where the members are able to express their ideas on issues.

Governing Council Leads Junior High President John Boelens pounds his gavel to bring Junior High Student Council to attention A group composed of hard working seventh, eighth, and ninth graders make up the Junior High Student Council. School activities were promoted to create school spirit and to form good relations between stu- dents and faculty. Tootsie Roll Pop sales, car-washes, and dances not only brought enjoyment and service to the students, but also an effective means to raise money. In accord- ance with the Senior High Student Council, they have promised to raise money to build a school in Tansania. Aside from being the governing branch of the Junior High, the members gained experience in preparation for the Senior Student Council. Mr. Truer, advisor of this active group, has worked with much effect, to give students practice in self-government. The annual semi-formal affair, the Victor ' s Ball, was held at the closing of the year to honor the newly elected officers. This year the faithful officers have been: Jon Boelens, president; Dorothy Rennie, vice president; Debbie Napier, secretary; and Kathy Merry- man, treasurer. 148 G.A.A. Has Activity Packed Year Enthusiasm was the key to success in this year ' s Girls Athletic Association. Under the guidance of Miss Munn and Miss Tomajczk and the officers, Gail Gazella. president; Carol Winters, vice president; Marie Van Sweden, treasurer; Diane VanderVen, Sec- retary; and Roberta DeVries. recording secretary, the club completed one of the most active seasons in years. Throughout the year the members energetically composed volleyball and basketball teams, then com- peted among themselves in an effort to gain the club championship for each sport. In addition to the varied athletic pursuits the girls also found time to hold an amusing initiation for new members, a hayride for the girls and their guests, and filling and decorating food baskets during Thanksgiving for five needy fami- lies in the Grand Rapids area. Highlighting the year G.A.A. held its first annual awards banquet, where indi- vidual awards were presented. Pam McGregor attempts a half twist while siDotters First Row: J. Weller, M. Joseph, A.

Agona, composed of a group of girls originally dedi- cated to sports, spent a varied and interesting year serving the student body and the community. During this past year, these girls sent Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter packages to the military forces in Viet Nam, delivered favors to the Maple Grove Facility, and spon- sored carnation sales on Valentine ' s and St. Patrick ' s Day to earn money. Every year the Agona Club awards the Agona Cup to an outstanding freshman girl, who is then eligible for membership in her sophomore year. Awarded to an outstanding senior girl is the Tri-Honor Cup and in addition a fifty dollar scholarship is given to a deserv- ing graduating Agona member. In order to join Agona, a girl must be either a junior or senior in high school, have one year or more of sports activity in G.A.A., and maintain a B (3.00) average. To gain admission each girl must also go through a humorous initiation and a formal initiation tea. This year the hard working officers were: president, Jane Wunsch; vice president, Carol Klunder; treasurer, Jackie Jamo; secretary, Shirley Meyard; and sponsor, Mrs. Van Wingen. 150 Laughter mixed with chatter stimulates healthy appetites at a bimonthly Agona spread.

Vasque Athletic Lettermen Join Forces The C-Club of Central High School, known for its hilarious initiations and its annual C-Club Faculty game held in the spring of each year, is formally organized for a worthy goal. To bring lettermen together, was the purpose stated by President Jim Zarafonetis, and to serve the school and the com- munity. Under the sponsorship of athletic director Jim Fox the group also spent much of their time or- ganizing bake sales and dances as well as promoting a city-wide donkey basketball game to earn money for the Dollars-for-Scholars scholarship program given each year to deserving seniors going on to higher education. To be eligible for membership boys must have earned a major letter in any of the competition sports offered by the athletic program. Upon receiving a formal invitation, the athletes are forced to run through two rugged days of comic initiations and then at- tend a formal dinner for all old and new members. Other officers of the C-Club this past year were Paul Van Putten, vice president; Ward Severson, secretary; and Paul Botts, treasurer. :-Club mei iris eager nbers relinquished to sport them durir their hard ec g Pep Week. 152 First Row; W.

Who inspired the spouting enthusiasm? The girls in gold and white, known to every Centralite as the Varsity Cheerleaders. Rousing the student body and teams through pep-assemblies, posters, and cheers was the main desire of the girls, but they worked hard and often to also earn funds to buy new uniforms and pro- vide scholarships to summer cheerleading camp. With the persistent spirit of the Varsity Cheerlead- ers and an individuality all their own, the Reserve Cheerleaders, backed by the eager Junior High, worked hand in hand with the Varsity spirit-boosters to pro- mote games, in their case being the Reserve Sports. Together, these two groups made spirit and enthusi- asm by-words at Central. Donna McGrego First Row: S. Balson, E. Whip, P. Dubinshak. Second Row: N. DeYoung, E. Zarofonells, M. Drew, J.

Seniors Perform with Precision At the two bell signal, before each assembly, a select group of seniors reported to the auditorium to face up to the difficult task of seating nearly 1,000 students quickly and efiBciently. Senior Ushers, as they are known, were chosen last spring to serve this past year. Scholastic standings and maturity characterized the small band of individuals and result in smoothly run- ning assemblies. Head ushers, John Walsh and Paul Botts, took on the responsibility of making sure the entire group worked with precision. Miss Chapman, the sponsor of the organization strove with vigor to ensure teamwork and methodic handling of the student body. Though the tasks of ushering a large number of students were challenging the seniors felt honored at being selected and enjoyed working closely with the student body. Head Ushers John and Paul, in response to the assen biy signal, ledd students into the auditorium. 156 Assemblies Run Smoothly; Junior High Ushers Assist Moving the junior high students into the auditorium and getting them seated without confusion was a task placed on the shoulders of a select group of freshmen. They were chosen by their teachers in the spring of their eighth grade year, on the basis of scholarship, citizen- ship, and leadership. During the course of the year, they had the responsibility of being the first to the audito- rium, taking their assigned positions, and patiently di- recting the students to their seats. At the dismissal of the assemblies, the ushers remained until the last person was out the door; then they were free to return to their own classes. The group, if any problems arose, turned to their advisors. Miss Wingeier and Mr. Lubbers, for a guiding hand. These select students had a hard job, but they achieved a great reward for their service — the experience of accepting responsibility.

In its second suc- cessful year as an organized group at Central, the club demonstrated its skills in many ways. Chess Tourna- ments were held among the taltented students within the club as well as matches waged with teams of other city schools. In addition, many of Central ' s interested faculty members were challenged to a game of chess, enabling members to prove themselves and their abilities. Money-making projects by this energetic group pro- vided the means to purchase books on chess to add to a growing collection. Chess, a game enjoyed by many, has been proven to be an important highlight in our school. Checkmatel And another challenge matches. is met at one of the weekly chess Sitting: R. Rahn, S.

Under the motto: to develop a full responsibility toward their fellow- men, the members strove to make the year a huge success. They went Christmas caroling at various old people ' s homes and sent ditty or friendship bags to children in ' iet Nam. Another one of the year ' s acti i- ties was a correspondence carried on with schools across the seas.

Funds, being low, the group spent much of their time working to raise the money for educational trips to Michigan State Uni- versity and Ferris State Institute. In addition the girls assisted both students and teachers by typing lengthy papers, dittos and stencils. The clu b also handled ticket sales for the Senior Play and other organized school activities. Diane Gessler, president of the am- bitious group, emphasized that the goal of the busi- ness Club was to stimulate a business interest among the senior high students and to work together, train- ing for a future in the business world.

Deserving People Receive Recognition Juniors and seniors whose scholastic achievements de- served merit found worthwhile rewards in the selected membership of Central ' s National Honor Society. With scholarship, leadership, service and character the four main goals of the group, members worked individually and together to promote the many activities sponsored by the Honor Society. Among the most outstanding contributions made by the membership were the Lost and Found Department operated every morning in front of the attendance office and the daily raising and lowering of the Anu-rican flag on the school grounds. In addition the Honor Society held induction assem- lilies for new members twice during the year before the student body.

Talented Staff Produces Monthly Chronicle Central High School ' s newspaper, the Rampages, is an important link among the students. This monthly paper informs the students of activities that have oc- curred and are about to occur. Students on the Rampages staff get an excellent in- sight into the field of journalism. These students meet every sixth hour as a class, where they are instructed in the correct way to assemble a paper. They also gain valuable experience in writing different types of articles, making lay outs, and taking pictures for the paper. This year ' s staff, led by Mr. Barkema, consists of many qualified students whose interest in journalism and in the activities of the school produce an excellent paper. Co-editors Dick and Trudy with advisor Mr. Barkema give special attention to plans for on upcoming edition of the Rampages. 162 £ Club Members Benefit by Helping Others This year was spent in active service, as the Help- ing Hand Club members strove to fulfill their goal of lending a hand to others. The club, which met at Eastern Orthopedic School, consisted of members from grades seven to twelve. Their services to the com- munity, as well as to other classmates, proved to be a rewarding experience. One of their main projects in- cluded aiding a needy family with food baskets, presents, and clothes at Easter. They also held an Easter basket sale and used this money for a trip to Lansing as special guests of the capitol. In addition to this, the Helping Hand Club contributed five dollars a month, earned by themselves, to a needy charity. Led by their officers. Jack Hoekstra, president; Dale Vander Kaay. vice president: Larry O ' Toole. treasurer; Joseph Richards, secretary ; and Jack Vanden Hoek, corresponding secretary, the Helping Hand Club re- ceived personal satisfaction by enriching the lives of others with their services.

Members of this group were responsible for checking out books, collecting library fines, putting book shelves in order, cataloguing new books and helping students find materials they needed. These efficient helpers each gave up at least two hours a week to assist in the library, assuring students that student help was available between 8:00 a.m. and 3:45 p.m. every day. To help in raising funds for club activities and projects this club, sponsored by Mrs. Brower, held various sales. Officers for the year of 1966-67 were: president, Annette Mathews; vice president, Mattie Huff; and secretary-treasurer, Annette Gamble.

During the year, members undertook various helpful activities by partici- pating in a student counseling service sponsored by the Student Council and acting as teacher aids. In the words of Mrs. Kemp. The club offered an opportunity to per- form a service for others while they helped themselves. Also, by participating in the club, members were able to decide whether they were sure of their choice of vo- cation. Investigating every aspect of teaching, the group listened to many guest speakers, such as student teach- ers, experienced teachers, and administrators. This year ' s officers were Carol Schlinz, president ; Barbara VanderMark, vice president ; Laura Zeeff, sec- retary; Gail Gant. treasurer. Two new offices were cre- ated this year: Elaine Beckwith, historian; and Denise V ' aughn, parliamentarian. Through the able guidance of the advisors, the club undertook many outside activi- ties including a conference at Western Michigan Uni- versity in the fall and meetings with other F.T.A. groups from the Kent County area.

Bright colored badges aided the new-comers to distinguish these much needed students from the rest of the ever-moving student body. Working together with the K.I.D.S. Program (estab- lished by the Senior Student Council to counsel junior high students with domestic as well as school prob- lems), this group strove to reduce the possibility of potential drop-out. During the year all of the members were guiding students at Central. With the idea of helping others to help themselves, the Big Brothers and Sisters sought to make all students comfortable in a large school community. The officers for this year were Gerry Benham, Presi- dent; Linda Huyser, Vice President; Jan Helder, Sec- retary ; and Mary Drueke, Treasurer. ■- 0 The odor of homemade fudge enticed hungry students The candy sale was one of the fund raising projects Big-Brother Big-Sister Club. after school, used by the First Row: C.

Audio Visual Lends Hand to Learning Every hour during the school day was filled with the hustle and bustle of the selected students from the Audio-Visual Staff. These students had the task of distributing the 73 tape recorders, record players, film projectors, and screens to and from classes. Because of the many requests for material aids, the Audio- Visual room used pegboards filled with labeled tags and room numbers to keep track of the demand. Chosen by the approval of the Audio-Visual Co-ordi- nator, Mr. Hecker, the small group was essential in promoting the use of materials in making every class- room experience more enjoyable and interesting.

Central Bands Blend Mellow Sounds The mellow sounds of brass instruments and the accompanying beat of drums characterized Central ' s junior and senior high bands. Spirit among both groups ran high. One member of the senior high band proudly commented, The bands have displayed more potential this year than any other band in many years. Working endlessly, the members strove to add spirit at pep assemblies and football games. Often the band leader, Mr. Becker, and the senior musicians would practice on the football field perfecting syn- chronized movements before school in the morning. A highlight of the year was the trip to the University of Michigan, where the senior band participated in a half-time show. Individual members also competed in an Ensemble Contest, where musicians performed and were rated on talent. The band officers, co-ordinating activities and other duties necessary for operation, were Joel Dunn, president; Bruce VandeVooren, vice-presi- dent; Sharon Martineau. secrelarylreasurer; and Pam Raatz, librarian. 169 Polished Orchestras Present Musical Contrasts Soft strains of classical and modem selections filled the halls surrounding the large band room. Here both junior and senior high orchestral musicians practiced the various selections to be performed before the many assembly and concert audiences. Tunes ranging from patriotic America and Star Spangled Banner to the light, breezy sound of Stout Hearted Men were conducted by orchestra master Mr. Becker. Under his direction the musicians practiced many hours in prepa- ration for the Pops Concert, the Orchestra Festival, and numerous other programs. The junior orchestra performed before junior high audiences and the senior musicians exhibited their abilities before senior high counterparts. To lighten the load of paper-work and on occasion to lead the students when Mr. Becker was absent, senior Sue Kapteyn acted as orchestra mis- tress. All young musicians participating found the musical groups valuable in developing their budding talents. First chair violinist Sue Kapteyn leads the string section in the Pops Concert. 170 First Row: S. Norgaard, L. Zaidenworm, M. StotI, I, VanVliet, 5. Burris. Second Row: P. Bower, J. Belting, S.

Rambleers Produce Happy Sounds The pleasant sound of youthful voices rang out as the Rambleers performed at various programs. This musical group allowed seventh and eighth graders to participate in musical activities other than regular music classes. Meeting once a week after school, they prepared folk music for presentation and anxiously awaited the chance to perform in the Christmas Pro- gram and the Spring Concert. Throughout the year there were also Junior High assemblies where the Rambleers sang their melodies for the students, and at the end of the year this vocal group performed at elementary schools to give future Central students a pleasing glance at one of the many aspects of the music department. Teaching and con- ducting this group were Mrs. Roman and Mr. Schellen- berger. nbleers put spirit Into song as they practice for an loming concert. 17 2 Synchronized Voices Pro- duce Kuphonious Sounds A stepping stone lietween the junior higli RaniMeers and the senior high Choir was the ninth grade group known as the Chorus. Having gained vakiable funda- mental training as Rambleers, the boys and girls of this group studied diverse musical selections in prepa- ration for the three-year course of senior music in the Choir. With other vocal groups the Chorus presented aried musical moods in songs such as I Want to Be Ready. and Roll the Chariot. before assembled audience musical presentations throughout the school year. Lnlike the Rambleers, these singers did not use their extracurricular time for harmonizing together. Classes three times a week were set aside during school hours for preparation of material. The many hours of train- ing produced a group, the instructors felt, which was well trained in handling diverse kinds of music. And, because thev enjoved singing, the group displayed manv moods of song with enthusiasm. Singing a lively ; spring concert. the chorus practices for the annual First Row: D. Bodeau, C.

Synchronized Voices Produce Euphonious Sounds Voices could be heard in persistent practice every third hour from within the door of room 34. Those voices were singing numbers in preparation for a great number of assemblies and other occasions that took place during the year; the Vesper Service at Fountain Street Church, Christmas programs for the school, the mid-winter concert, and other programs. The purpose of the Senior Choir was not only to learn new songs and train their voices, but as Mr. Schellenberger stated, To study, prepare, and present vocal litera- ture. This year, as in the past three years, Mr. Schellenberger stressed quality of the students and succeeded in making Central ' s Senior Choir the only high school choir in the city of Grand Rapids to tackle major symphonic works, which are expected only of college choirs. Among these were songs in foreign la nguages, such as Spanish, Latin, and Russian; Dies Sanctificatus ' by Palestrina, Vamos Al Portal by Guerrero, and Hospodi Pomilui by Lvov. The major achievement for the choir this year was Gloria by Poulenc, which took months of preparation. Mr. Schellenberger was very pleased with the work that the choir members accomplished. In his words, The choir members must dare to be pioneers and step out into the new frontier of music. The choir did indeed do this when they ventured into the music of symphonies. Chosen for their independent vocal ability, eleven senior high students proudly composed the Central Madrigals. Twice a week these pupils practiced a variety of tunes ranging from the light sixteenth century folk songs to serious spirituals. Vocal ability, however, was not the only requirement of the Madri- gals. Music appreciation and self-confidence were also key elements in the success of the group. Highlighting an active year were two school con- certs held in mid-winter and in the spring. The singers ' ability showed through as the hours of hard work and diligent preparations produced delightful sounds. 174 Third Row: J. Weller, M. Spotes, R. DeVries, L. Hoebeke, M. Kou- kios, E.

Eight times during the first semester competition de- bates were held at Burton Junior High School. Central debaters as well as students from other schools of the City League gathered there to participate. Judging was based on several items: reasoning and evidence offered by the debater, organization of his materials, and the argument presented. At the conclusion of this school year, members of the society were awarded pins for participation in debate. The topic for 1966-1967 was: the Foreign Aid Pro- gram of the United States should be limited to non- military assistance. Officers for this year included Jane Esenwien, president ; Dave Wagemaker, secretary -treas- urer, and their sponsor, Mrs. Vanden Elst.

Policing Halls Becomes Student Responsibility Students roaming the halls were an uncommon sight at Central this year. With the able guidance of Mr. Farougi, his squad of hall monitors was constantly on its toes, catching unauthorized persons in the build ing and students without passes. Those not having passes had their names placed on a list sent to Sue Kapteyn, the group ' s secretary. When a name had been recorded four times, the person was then sent to the main office for further action. Through this program of students governing themselves, Centralites learned to respect rules to a greater degree; and as Mr. Farougi stated, This minority group helped protect and maintain the rights of the majority. Thus the halls of Central, were kept as quiet as possible and scholarly atmosphere was maintained. Third Row: C. O ' Dell, V. Dunlop, M. Rosenberg, K. Wakefield, C. Ellis, C. Lovelady, D. Botmo, P.

Rams Rip to First Undefeated Season in 19 Years For the first time in nineteen years, Central ' s football team won an outright city league championship with an undefeated season and a number three ranking in the final Associated Press poll of Class A Michigan high schools. The flashy, talented Ram gridders showed a desire and spirit that was unequalled in the city league. Featuring a never-say-die defense and an explosive offense, the Rams scored an average of 26.6 points per contest. Under the coaching of Mr. Barcheski and his assistants Mr. Shultz and Mr. Hecker, the Rams rolled through a tough schedule high-lighted by hard fought victories over last year ' s city champs, Creston, and this year ' s runner-up team.

Reserves Encounter Stiff Competition This year ' s Junior Varsity football squad finished its season with a 1-5 won-lost record. In the words of head coach Mandeville, The success of a team cannot always be measured by its record. Despite a losing record, Mr. Mandeville felt that his team gained the needed game experience and procured the knowledge and qualities that will allow many of them to advance to the varsity level of play next fall. Through ham- pered by a light turnout, the team showed great spirit and responded well to the coaching of Mr. Mandeville and his assistant, Mr. McDermott. The Reserves played their best game against South, a scoreless duel until the closing seconds when the Reserves pushed across a score to win, 6-0. The sophomores played good, rough football and are looking forward to a crack at next year ' s varsity team.

The large turnout of candidates for the team typified Central ' s fine spirit and athletic prowess. These young boys, many of whom had never played on an organized team before, were eager to learn the fundamentals of the game. Under the coaching of Mr. Ripmaster. whose duty it was to teach and prepare these boys for the best possible high school career, the team developed to its fullest potential. Looking very impressive this sea- son, the Frosh eagerly await the opportunity to play on the Junior Varsity next year.

Although they had a dismal won- loss record of 1-7, the harriers fought hard, and each man did his best. The team had two fine runners in Dave Decker and Joe Day but had serious lack of depth, caused by an exceptionally light turn-out. Central was never able to field the proper number of runners, which in cross country can be disasterous.

There was the heartbreak of defeat and the fulfillment of well earned victory. Both pride and disappointment were the end results of hours of practice and prepara- tion. Competition was keen among the city schools this year, and Central rode the height of excitement. Coaches yelled encouragement, always urging the boys onward.

The team finished the season with three wins and 13 losses; not at all indica- tive of their efforts. The sophomores displayed a desire to win and a willingness to learn throughout the season. Lacking good height, the team was out-re- bounded by most of its opposition and to win had to outshoot its foes. Employing a patterned offense in which the guards set up the plays, the reserves relied very little on the fast break for offensive punch. Mr. Lubbers feels that many of his boys will help next years ' varsity squad.

Although they were an exceptionally strong team personnel wise, they com- piled a 5-5 record. The coach. Mr. Butler, felt that this comparatively weak record was not indicitive of his cager ' s brand of ball and style of play. Also, showing the aggressiveness not shown in their won-lost record was the fact that they lost three games by a total of onlv six points. ith their abundance of natural talent coupled with their newly acquired skills from playing under the supervision of Coach Butler, they should prove valuable to the Junior Varsity next year and the Varsity in two years.

Tankers Stroke to Fulfilling Season In the words of Mr. McDermott, Hard work, all out effort, determination, and dedication characterized this year ' s swim team. Paced by a core of experienced seniors and talented underclassmen, the team did well against city league competition, finishing with four vic- tories and four defeats. The team split its two non-league encounters to finish the season at five-five, the most suc- cessful record Central has enjoyed in many years. The highlight of the season for Coach McDermott ' s tankers was the Hudsonville meet when three individual records were set. Tom Baird posted a new record for the Hud- sonville pool with a timing of 25.4 seconds in the 50 yard freestyle; Dick Oole, a record of 2:20.3 in the 200 yard freestyle; and Gary Colley ' s 1:14 toppled the school mark for the breaststroke. In the City Meet Gordon Church took a third place, and fourths were taken by Gary Colley, Dick Oole, Rich Huffman, and the 400 yard freestyle relay team consisting of Jerry Mollien, Tom Baird, Rick Kloppe, and Dick Oole.

Although the grapplers were extensively undermanned, they were extremely ded- icated and hard working. As Ir. Bennett commented. Considering the number of men on the squad, ihcy did a really terrific joh! Paul Harvey came thnnigh with a second place in heavyweight competition during the city meet, while Jerry Simmons took a third in the 1.5l-poun l weight class. Another talented matman. Dick Murray, who led die team in total points, was hampered by a leg injury and could not compete in the city-wide event. Coach Bennett was delighted with the fine prospective under- classmen, and he felt that with a little better lurn-out. they could be a power in next year ' s City League race.

Strong contenders in both the doubles and singles. Cen- tral ' s netters expected to give tough city league teams a battle for the tide.

Returning lettermen Dennis Widgren. Eric Schellenberger, and George Lajueness formed an expe- rienced nucleus for the team.

Rich Mahaney, John Kingsnorth, Jim Burnett, and Dave Kapteyn, the team ' s possibilities for an improved record hinged on untested pitchers, outfielders and catchers.

Coach Barcheski seemed well pleased with the team ' s ambition and had high hopes for a good finish. Some of the more outstanding prospects of the 1967 season were Reggie Booker, Gary Lachniet, Chris Mar- chand and Jerry Smith. With the aid of these and many other talented tracksters, Mr. Barcheski was con- fident that his team would make a good showing against the other City League track powers. 1966 SCORES WE THEY Ottawa 29 44 West Catholic 36 53 Cotholic Central 38 20 Ottawa 35 39 Uni on 25 35 South 37 43 202 Tracksters Ranked Strong Contender Finishing in a tie for second place in the city race last year, the ' arsity Track team looked forward to an even better showing this season.

Checking the eligibility of persons going out for the various sports, writing letters for Mr. Fox. and organizing letters and certificates for presentation hy coaches at the athletic assemblies were some tasks they performed. Team members looked to the girls for their game passes; students expected them to be on hand early in the morning to sell tickets for the numerous sports contests. It was this hehind-the-scene work that kept the athletic department running smoothly and effi- ciently this year, making it possible for the coaches to pay more attention to the team members and team strategy itself. In the words of athletic director Fox. These girls are a great help — without them the ath- letic department would not be able to function. Athletic Director Fox and his two junior ossistonts Solly KluncJe and Sharon Mortineou compile the weekly eligibility lists.

Now, months later, after endless hours of planning and re- planning, we find before us a book which we believe shows we have succeeded. People started with an idea that is now firmly im- pregnated in every section. This vision of Central as we present it to you represents more time and effort than anyone not associated with the staff would ever realize. Work, frustration, hope, and finally joy have given us an experience that none will soon forget. We succeeded because of our never-say-die spirit and the assistance we received from our advisors. Without this winning combination People would never have existed. We are very proud of HELIOS ' 67. We hope the book brings as much pleasure to you as the creation of it brought to us.
