Situated in the hall in front of the office, it has served as the favorite meeting place for Centralites many times during their three years. Every student at Central is fa- miliar with the statue and is proud to have it as a part of the school.Y,, As one of the first things shown tor visitors, the simplicity and beauty of the statue has impressed all who have seen it. As long as Central stands, Abra- ham Lincoln will guard its halls.

GRADIIATIUN 0F SENIURS Three years is, in reality, a short period of time, but to the seniors at Central High, it is three years crammed full of excitement, hard work, good times and memories. What senior could ever forget all those nights of burning the midnight oil, and cramming for tests, all the suspense before such events as class elections and class play, and every six weeks, receiving the report cards. The first two years aren't. nearly so ex- citing as the last. year, as most seniors will agree, but in the senior year, there is so much to be done, and so many activities to carry on, that there is hardly time for a senior to do everything he wants to. Many seniors are on the courtesy committee, others work in the library, on the school newspaper staff, the Record, or on the Maroon and White Annual staff. A great many of the seniors belong to clubs and various organizations which almost completely fill their spare time. When it is time for class play try outs there is always a lot of questioning and sus- pense: Who's going to get the lead ? Did he get a part? Do you think I will? All of these questions are buzzing through the halls until the day comes to announce the cast. There are six seniors, out of each class, three boys and three girls, who are chosen as All For Central . They are chosen for their outstanding abilities, the activities in which they have participated, and their popularity in school affairs. Nearly every senior that wishes to, has the privilege of taking swimming at the Y. VV. C. A. during sixth period, one day a week. Seniors are the only students that are per- mitted to do this, so they have an advantage over the other classes. Then comes the event ofthe year-grad- uation! To nearly every senior, graduating is one of the most important and thrilling times of his life. The busy, bustling days be- fore the close of the semester seem unending. The seniors must be measured for their caps and gownsg they must practice marching in the Maud , they must prepare the senior ban- quet and all such things that always are nec- esary to be done before graduation. The last day of school finally comes and all the seniors wear their caps throughout the entire last day of school-known as Senior Dayn. This one day, along with the haccalau- reate and commencement exercises, will al- ways be prominent in the memories of their exciting high school days. -9-
