With the sincere hope that this book will be accepted with pleasure and appreciation by every reader, the staff of the Maroon and White Annual presents another vol- ume of Central's history. The theme, Silhouettes of 1938, is emphasized as an art motif only, and no attempt has been made to carry it out in the write-ups. Designed to record all the interesting and memorable events and activities of the school year, this annual pub- lication, the thirty-fourth of its kind, is truly a possession worth keeping and cherishing. It provides an accurate account of past victories and accomplishments and, at the same time, furthers a realization of the opportunities awaiting those students who have not yet graduated. As the Silhouettes of 1938 pass before you, we desire that they not only provide entertainment, but also bring to mind a recollection of the ups and downs, the joys and defeats, of the eventful school year drawing to a close. May this yearbook aid the reader in the future by re- minding him of those attainments and disappointments which played so important a part in his Central High School career. In the past, the Annual has been looked upon as a book primarily for the Seniors. However, each year it is becoming more truly representative of the entire student body of the Castle on the Hill. We urge the lower class- men to regard it as such.

Drmc Tl T0 THE SPIRIT OF YOUTH The 1938 Maroon and White staff breaks a precedent of long standing by not dedicating the 1938 Annual to a faculty member. Instead, this volume is dedicated to the unconquerable uspirit of Youthv, which spurred our pioneer forefathers to found this young nation, to the 6'Spirit of Youth which today is a spirit of progress, of never-failing courage, and of American democracy. It is indeed fortunate that in this country of tolerance and personal freedom, education is not used as a weapon to repress the L'Spirit of Youth . It is used instead to guide and discipline that desire for change which all young people seem to possess in common. Because of this guidance, no uncontrolled desire results in chaos- instead, there is a steady advancement toward the cul- tural and economic perfection for which our nation and our students are constantly striving. This Spirit of Youth is not only a quality possessed by young genera- tionsg it is possessed often by those old in years and ex- perience who are still youthful in their attitude toward life and in their hope for the future. May the 4'Spirit of Youth , wherever it is found, en- dure forever!
