ll 41 EE- 24 3-gp G ' r Since the dawn of time, man, in his thirst for knowledge, and su- premity has opened new fields and explored new horizons. It was man's seeking that brought about the split- ting of the atom, the discovery of new medical marvels, and the thous- and and one inventions that make America the greatest industrial giant of all times. It was man's constant searching that brought Columbus to the shores of America, that colonized a great nation. It was the gold rush of '49 that opened a new country, California, to settlement by pioneers. Every generation, every era, and every race has produced new seek- ers, new searchers for wisdom and knowledge. It is to these men and women who have so valiantly sought a better way of life that we of the Annual staff do proudly ded- icate this annual of the year 1949. 4 Q! gf 4 1 2 4 f Q ,-

ROBERT JOHNSON in Memoriam Y When school resumed session this September, Central was missing one of its former pupils who had just begun his work in the Castle. This pupil was Robert Eugene Johnson who lost his life at the very early age of sixteen. Bob died in the early part of August as a result of the serious polio epidemic which gripped the midwest in the summer months. Bob had already spent one year in taking part in the Castle life. During this year he had made his mark in Castle activities for he had taken subjects in which his grades had already been an indication of his future worth as a student. The subjects which Bob had been taking before his departure were English, American History, Typing, and Mechanical Drawing. As the school year progresses Bob's absence is felt keenly by all his many friends. Teachers as well as associates miss the presence of this quiet boy who studied, and studied well. Although Bob was only able to be a Central student for such a short period of time the impression that he left upon the faculty, the students, his friends and acquaintances as well is one which speaks proudly for the character of Robert Eugene Johnson. -7-
