Deeply religious, soundly human in every respect, and gifted with a generous good nature that made every one who saw Iter admire her, she Teas a symbol of all that is perfect in woman. During the years that she spent in Central high Miss Probett has earned the sincere love of both the students and faculty. .Is a counsellor and guide to the students, she accomplished miracles, her intensely human qualities always producing the desired effect when dealing with recalcitrant students with whom sternness would have been ineffective. Her memory will never fade from the minds of those who have known her. She will always be regarded as Central’s most beloved character. [6] ITT- m atv'v-; . I £ Foreword The last year has been marked by events which will be forever dear to the heart of each loyal Centra life. The congenial and inspiring association together here will prove in future years a potent memory. It is the hope and object of this book to hold within its covers the interests of today, and at the same time to preserve the colorful details of Central life in a manner fully to satisfy the demands of tomorrow' s reminiscence. In order to accomplish this and in a graceful and an original way, the Staff has seen ft to use marine metaphor. Thus you will find in the following pages a record of the IQ21-22 voyage of the Good Ship Central. “LIKE UNTO A SHIP OS THE SEA OF LIFE U'V-: 9 1922 CENTRAL!AN STAFF (1=611 7=55 3 1922 CENTRA LI AN STAFF George I .

[101 FANNIE M. FORESTER FILLING the vacancy left by the resignation of Miss Ida V. Probett, Miss Fannie M. Forester, dean of students, soon established herself in the hearts of the passengers of the Good Ship Central. With a complete knowledge of human nature, she is perfectly fitted to discharge the work of her predecessor, who was also her life-long friend. Vigorous and enthusiastic, sound in judgment, with an insight into the mind of youth that can come only from one with a broad perspective. Miss Forester is assured of success in her position. Perhaps no better words could he found to describe Miss Forester than those of Wordsworth, the poet— .I perfect woman, nobly planned. Horn to comfort and command ” CALVIN Y. JARVIS IN Calvin V. Jarvis, assistant principal, the students of Central high school have a friend and helper who is worthy of their utmost respect and admiration. Coming to Central in the spring quarter of 1921, he in a short time established himself as a popular member of the faculty. As a friend of the students as well as a leader, he is making his work at Central an influence for good in the development of the lives of those with whom he comes in contact. In the one short year that he has been at Central Mr. Jarvis has shown that he is a capable educator and efficient executive, and, above all, a real friend and adviser ta the students. ini IZU THE FACULTY Richard T.

McWade during his two years at Central has well established himself in that niche in the esteem of the students which is reserved for the most popular members of the faculty. He has an enviable service record dating from before the Spanish-American war. During the World War he was for a time stationed with the 88th Division at Camp Dodge. Leaving Camp Dodge, he took charge of the Dumvoodv Institute in Minneapolis where he remained till, at the end of the war. he was assigned to work with the high school cadet corps. His peculiar genius for understanding and appreciating the American boy has aided him immeasurably in his work in tin- military department of the local preparatory schools. Captain Ralph Me Fail I AS professor of military science and tactics of the Cadet corps of the Minneapolis high schools, Captain Ralph McFaul has been sincerely respected by every man who has been under him. Thoroughly human, and known to the cadets as a considerate, kindly leader, he has made friends wherever he has gone. Captain McFaul was graduated from Central with the class of June. 1912, and received his college education at St. Thomas academy. He served during the World War as a captain of infantry. Succeeding Captain Fox as military instructor in the Minneapolis secondary institutions, he quickly gained the reputation of being every inch a soldier—and a man. THE CADET COUPS THE cadet corps of Central high school was organized in October, 1918, under the direction of the school physical training instructor. Cadets were required to buy their uniforms, but nevertheless the companies had a large number of inen. In February, 1919, the War Department detailed W. S. MeWade, then captain, to the Minneapolis high schools, and lie was in charge until June, 1919. September, 1919, found Major Tom Fox assigned in charge of the training, and he and Captain MeWade, together with three sergeants from the regular army, composed the training staff. In June, 1921, Major Fox was relieved from high school duty, and sent to West Point as instructor in English. Captain Ralph Mc-Faul, 36th Infantry, was detailed to succeed him. Cadet hops, a four day camp at Fort Snclling, and numerous competitive drills were the corps activities during this year. In September, 1920, the War Department authorized the high schools of Minneapolis to be classed as a junior unit of the Reserve Officers Training Corps (R. O. T. C.) Under this regulation all uniforms and equipment are furnished by the U. S. Government, there being no expense to the cadet whatever. The corps at Central has been, for nearly two years, at the highest point of efficiency and morale. The spirit is splendid, and consequently good discipline follows. The fact that military training is voluntary accounts in a large measure for the great interest kept up in the corps. In December, 1919, Central won the silver sabre presented by Major Fox. Also for the last two years Central has won the annual drill for the colors. Central is now permanent possessor of the gold sword, it having been won by Captain Hugo Eriekson in December, 1920, and by Captain -Norman Anderson in December, 1921. All these competitions were participated in by companies from the five different high schools of the city. Competing against platoons of picked cadets from St. Thomas Military academy and Cretin high school of St. Paul, a platoon selected from Company B of the Central high cadet corps on May 19 won a magnificent silver trophy offered bv the American Legion to the best drilled high school platoon in the twin cities. The event, which was held on the St. Thomas athletic field, attracted a large crowd. Captain Norman Anderson again commanded the victorious platoon, and it was his soldierly bearing and superb control over the cadets that contributed in no small part to the overwhelming triumph of the Central platoon. The present commissioned cadet officers of the corps at Central are: Captains—Rowland Dobbins, Norman Anderson. Wallace Thexton (Quartermaster). First Lieutenants—Gordon Williams, Thomas Moore, Charles Hocking. Second Lieutenants— Dick Decker, Horatio Walker, William Walker, Robert Cargill, Francis McGowan, Andrew McBlain, Harold Tinker, I.loyd James. The staff of instructors is as follows: Major W. S. MeWade, Captain Ralph McFaul, Lieut. Ashley J. Conard, Sergt. George Rcinshardt, and Scrgt. Elmer Larson. [19] OFFICERS OF COMPAN Y A COMPANY A OFFICERS OF COMPANY H COMPANY B NEWS REVIEW N advocate of good, an opponent of bad, and a weekly chronicle of all that is interesting to students of Central high school, the Central High News has, during the year now finished, put forth untiring efforts to live up to the motto, “Permanently, Persistently, Progressive.” When publication was resumed last fall, a new faculty director and an almost entirely new staff were in charge of publishing the News. The first act of the new staff was to enlarge the paper from six columns to seven, thereby making the News pages the same size as those of most large city dailies. In a journalism contest held at the University of Wisconsin in December, the News placed second, competing against more than 200 publications from sixteen states. From that time until the present, the News has steadily improved, and has been called by newspaper men a leading example of high school journalism in the United States. During the last year the News has been an invaluable aid in giving publicity to other worthy activities and projects at Central. It has brought before students and alumni information concerning plays, operas, and other performances put on by various organizations. In the Ccntralian campaign, articles, cartoons, editorials, and advertisements in the News were large factors in swelling the list of subscriptions to the annual. Those who have helped carry on the work of the News during the year just completed feel that a great deal of the credit for the success attained is due to I.. A. Borah, faculty director, who came from Spokane, Washington, to handle Central’s weekly publication. The members of the retiring staff feel that the last year has been one of accomplishment and successful progress. For those who have been appointed to carry on the work, they sincerely desire the greatest possible success. Daniel Mich, Editor-in-chief. I XDKRCLASSMKX ON the sixth day of September, 15)21, 450 innocent hopefuls, hesitant and excited, advanced through the door into Central to begin their journey toward the goal of their ambitions, high school graduation. These freshmen were sent into the auditorium to receive their program cards. Then they were separated from their friends. They wandered through the long corridors, trying to find their rooms. The hard-hearted seniors sent them on many fruitless journeys. Their search for the elevator proved in vain, and the tickets sold them for assembly seats did not reserve for them these coveted places. In advisory period, however, they reigned supreme. Under the supervision of Weston Mitchell, with Miss Rebecca Hurt and Miss F.lizabcth Sehoepp as his assistants, the freshman class enjoyed many good times. Here, too. they learned that failure slips and library notices were unpleasant missives, and that skip slips had to he accounted for. Kvery week members of the class showed their talent by entertaining the rest of the class by readings and musical selections. This not only was profitable, but it made the class better acquainted. The auditorium would not hold all the students, so the freshmen held their own assemblies in room 400. C'. V. Jarvis directed these. They were usually duplicates of tin big assemblies. These freshmen, not content with having the doors open so that they could listen to the orchestra in the auditorium, were at last consoled by having part of the orchestra play in 400 for their sole benefit. They knew who the coaches and members of the athletic teams were, for these noted people spoke to them. Their school spirit was great. More than 400 of the C 0 attended each football game. They elected two of their class as yell leaders, under whose direction the balls of Central rang many times with the shouts from the lusty lungs of these proteges of W. V. Mitchell. During the campaigns for the News and the Red and Blue Book, the merits and exceptional value to freshmen of the publications were explained to them. But alas! The scholarship suffered greatly. I.ow marks made it necessary to scatter the freshmen among different advisory rooms so that they might receive more personal attention. Their programs in advisory periods ended, and their separate assemblies were a thing of the past. From this time on they endured long study periods instead. A and B juniors welcomed this opportunity for a class gathering, so they occupied room 400 during advisory period. Mr. Mitchell. Miss Isabel Shoemaker. Mrs. Luclla Cook, and John Kobohm were their advisors. The old tradition of electing junior class officers had been abandoned, so they were content with selecting a program committee. When it came to acquiring knowledge, the juniors showed consistent growth and development. They abandoned the line of least resistance, and as a result of their efforts, their scholastic record was one they might well be proud of. 1241 The sophomores hud heretofore feared that they hud entered school under an unlucky star, for they had participated in none of these pleasantries before they had passed into their second year. But now their luck changed. They were recompensed for their banishment from these eagerly desired congregations, for their ardent hopes were now fully realized. The first big event to welcome the newcomers was a hare-and-hound chase, given by the Girls' Athletic association on September 23. Ten hares left the school half an hour before they were followed bv the hounds and laid a zig-zag trail which led to Glenwood park. The hounds, following, succeeded in finding the fire for a weiner roast, to which they all did ample justice. The Girls' club entertained their freshmen sisters at a festival in the gymnasium on October 11. Fifteen pairs of girls took charge of groups of freshmen who gave stunts for the entertainment. The judges for the occasion were Miss Cudn't-Get-Mnrried.” “Miss Tell-it to Everybody,” and “Mr. Drinkitsolatandfast.” The judges gave three rattles as prizes for The Heading School,...1’he Argentine Cafe,” and The Toy Shop. The Hi-Y and the Triangle club acted as joint hosts at the reception given January 23 for the freshmen boys. The purpose of the fete was to make the freshmen better acquainted with the upperclassmen and members of their own class. The boys were addressed by Bernard Rose, president of the Triangle club; Joseph Fleming, president of the Hi-Y; Gail Grcenhalgh. captain of the basketball team; Edmund Bertrand of the cadet corps, and Frank Tupa, a former lieutenant of the American marines. Games, school yells, and refreshments helped to make the evening enjoyable. The underclassmen as a whole are endowed with ambition, cheerfulness, and school spirit. They make the most of their opportunities. If the quotation is true Our todavs and vesterdays are tin blocks with which we build, it is a prophecy that the underclassmen will be of service and bring success to Central. 1251 19ZJ CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA ORCHESTRA FIFTEEN years ago a little orchestra was organized down at old Central. It was composed of eighteen musicians who practiced once a week after school. This orchestra played in the neighborhood churches to earn the money with which to buy music. From eighteen members it has grown to be a mighty organization containing about seventy-eight persons. The whole school enjoys the orchestra; for at all the commencement exercises, class plays, and assemblies it is the orchestra that adds much to the entertainment. Hut who, one might ask, has been greatly responsible for the growth and the present par-excellence of the orchestra? No one would hesitate to say it is the faithful, loyal director. Charles Pchoushek. For fifteen years Mr. Pehoushek has labored unceasingly to produce an orchestra worthy of a magnificent school like Central. No words could voice a perfect enough tribute to Mr. Pehoushek. The whole school enjoys his orchestra, and the whole school will be full of intense gratitude to him always. Two of the former orchestra members, Donald Johnstone, and Lawrence Mat-son play in the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra. Mrs. Marian Hearman, one of the city’s leading violinists, was in the Central orchestra for five years. It can be truthfully said that these successful musicians received much of their first inspiration under the able leadership of Mr. Pehoushek. THE BAND THE Central high band was regularly organized two years ago. Up to that time the band played only for the football, baseball, and basketball games. It is composed for the most part of members of the orchestra, and is under the able leadership of Charles Pehoushek. The band has made amazing progress during the two years of its organization, and now plays standard as well as band music for assemblies. It is Mr. Pchoushek to whom the school is indebted for the finest high school band in Minneapolis. Through his efforts the band has become a really vital factor in the life of the school. 127) The Year rJ IIIS section of the annual is the log hook of the voyage through preparatory school on the worthy vessel CentraI during 1921-1922.

He soon forgotten in the march of days. They struck no lyre, nor in Homeric strain Sang a great epic; hut in simple xoise They told how they had striven to attain The Golden Fleece of Knowledge, wondrous prise. That hook of four and thirty years ago Was first the tale of Central to unfold; Then one and twenty years in cycle slow Went by; nor left the tale of joys of old. In Nineteen Hundred Nine a senior hand Retold the story of their high school life That theirs might not he records writ on sand, But live and fill their days with mem'ries rife. This was the “Senior”; year by year it grew. This history of dear old Central High, And they who made it cherished it and knew , That never could their schoolday memories die. In Nineteen Fifteen, History’s page was turned; The first CENTllALIAN, hook of happy days. Replaced the “Senior”. Central students learned To treasure it, and for Centralian’s praise A day was set aside, Centralian Day, A day of merriment, of cares forgot. Who joins the merry circle at the play Forgets all cares; his is a happy lot. [331 snio.Hu.snm. 1341 CIIHISTOFOIU'S IN keeping with the precedent which was established in chorus classes several years ago of giving oratorios, the legend, “Christoforus” by Josef Rhein-berger was presented in the Central high auditorium on April 7. 1922. During the second part of the semester the study of the beautiful cantata was undertaken. After the short preparation of nine weeks the 330 voices presented “Christoforus” before a delighted audience. The solo parts were taken bv Madame Yde Lake, soprano; Miss Adair McRae, contralto; Master Vernon M ick, the boy soprano (in the part of the angel voice); Kirk Holmes, tenor; and Harry Phillips, bass. The accompaniments were played on two grand pianos by Margaret Lindquist and Alden Olds. The cantata was declared by critics an unusual success. On the evening of the performance the chorus choir sang with exceptional precision. The difficult passages of the legend were performed with an ease that showed that the singers had carefully studied, and were intelligently familiar with the work they had in hand. Under the directorship of Sydney II. Morse, who coached the production with untiring effort and unceasing enthusiasm, the legend of “Christoforus” as produced in the school auditorium was an exquisite piece of descriptive work. The work of the chorus classes during tin- year has been unusually good. The enrollment in the classes each quarter totaled about 1( 80. It was unfortunate, however, that after a period of seven weeks’ rehearsal the chorus classes were unable to obtain a date for the production of the legend of Don Munio by Dudley Buck. THE SENIOR TEAM WARREN DERATE ON Thursday morning, April 6, the annual Warren Prize debate was held in the auditorium. The audience of sophomores, juniors, and seniors, were held spellbound during two periods while the two teams composed of three juniors, George Townsend, Hazel Thomas, and Thomas Morton, and three seniors, Gordon Bowen, Dick Fehlhaber, and Robert Cargill, debated on the subject, “Resolved: That the United States Government, shall by direct control, regulate the price of fuel commodities, constitutionally granted.” Upholding the negative side of the question, the senior team won the hard-fought contest by a two-to-one decision given by the judges, who were C. W. Board-man, P. W. Hutson, and N. H. Hagel. The juniors fought valiantly to uphold their side, and their brilliant oratory was greatly to be commended. The junior team, coached by J. E. Mulligan, put up a fine argument, even though their opponents were the more experienced debaters. George Townsend, the captain, opened the debate for the juniors, and his forceful speech brought forth much applause for the affirmative. Thomas Morton and Hazel Thomas carried their parts of the argument with spirit. Gordon Bowen, the senior captain, showed great oratorical ability during his argument and was a tower of strength to the senior team. Dick Fehlhaber and Robert Cargill talked convincingly. This strong winning team was coached by F. E. Maxson. The Warren Prize debate is held each year between the juniors and seniors fbr a sum of $90, which is divided on a two-to-one ratio.

Study and association together here have instilled the principles and ideals of red-blooded manhood and womanhood into our minds, together with the appreciation of our responsibility to the obligation of American citizenship. This process has carried with it so many inspirations and pleasures that we arc reluctant to give them up. Hut our journey is at an end. “The ship has weathered every wrack, the prize we sought is won. In our reflections concerning the last four years, we cannot forget the debt of gratitude wc owe to those who have safely piloted us through clear and stormy seas, whose efforts and solicitude for our welfare will be echoed in future years by our own intellectual characters. The friendships we have formed in our work together have built for the members of this class a common bond which we hesitate to sever. And wc need not break these ties! It remains for us to keep forever near to our hearts the fighting spirit of old Central and the class of December, ’21-“One for all; all for one. Sincerely, Your President, RALPH HACKETT.

December. 1921 HI (.ill School days for the class of December, 1021. began one dismal and , fearful morning late in January, 10IS. During that first year the class was divided under the tutelage of many different members of the faculty. The students received with awe and respect the upper classmen and were ignored and belittled by them. They were taught the secrets of Central and enlightened as to the mysteries of the building. At times they assembled in the auditorium and were talked to by alumni ami Principal Greer. In the course of time these freshmen joined the ranks of the upper classmen and were known as sophomores. They played the part of the “turning worm on the incoming class of the youngsters. Hut even so they had much pity for the beginners, because they realized and appreciated their plight. During the second year more responsibility was thrust upon the class and they became more active. They subscribed to the News and attended the. games, and what social activities were open to them. In fact, their high school life held a new and brighter outlook. Their ignorance ©pencil with a rush. They were now upper classmen proper. As the year progressed members of the class became prominent and active leaders in scholastic, athletic and social activities, winning honors which will grace tin-name of Central for many a day. During their second and third years they learned to love and respect Principal Hargreaves as much as they had respected Mr. Greer, the principal of their freshman year who had now become assistant superintendent of schools. The- final act, the senior year, was a year full of accomplishments and advancements along practically every line. They were now grouped together under one leader. (). K. Kuenstcr, and they began to act as one unit. They started by electing John Beveridge, president; Marie J.vnch, vice-president; Virginia Badger, secretary, and Frank Bessessen, treasurer. Class colors, pin and motto were chosen, and they progressed rapidly. They were instructed bv Beveridge, as time passed, to elect new leaders. Accordingly Ralph Ilackett was elected president; Cornelia Clousing, vice-president; Myrtle Eck, secretary, and Wallace Thcxton. treasurer. And now, looking back over the four years at Central, the class fully realize that those days were the happiest days of their lives. Omitting boasts of their own future greatness, they wish success and happiness to the coming classes and resolve to make Old Central high school unsurpassed. [511 IT was not until twenty years after I had been graduated from Central high school that I became famous as a globe trotter and lecturer. Now as I sit musing before my fireplace, all my journeys arc lived again. All the cities I have visited, all the plains and mountains I have crossed, and all the people I have met flash again across the moving picture screen of my memory. In going around the earth again and again, and visiting every nook and corner in it, I met practically all the members of the class of December, 1921. On one of my sojourns in the wilds of India in 1932, I met a party of lion hunters led by Robert Wolpert. Other members of the expedition were Virginia Badger, who was very successful, John Wightman, John Grisdale, and George Noble. After leaving India, I crossed the Sahara on the Gyroscope Transportation company’s line, which had just been invented by Russells Moe and Schmid, and constructed across the desert by the Edwin Peppard Construction company. Members of the crew which laid the track were Robert Vance, Hewitt Smith, and Eugene Petrie. Upon returning to the United States by the way of South America, I met in Buenos Aires a troupe of vaudeville actors touring the country. One evening I attended their performance. When the curtain rose, the orchestra, led by Martin Norton, played a selection written by Gerald Sullivan, then a noted song writer. The first act was an excellent exhibition of tight rope walking by Olive Anker, Wellman Brink, Gertrude Carr, and Bessie Decider. A novelty in songs, featuring Kirk Holmes and Philip Atlas, was the second act. The trapeze performers and athletic jugglers who followed certainly proved themselves adepts in their profession. Martha Gemmell and Helen Gilbertson were the trapeze artists, and Merrill Ledue and William Hill the jugglers. While stopping at Vera Cruz, I learned that Norman Anderson was leading a revolt against Frank Bessessen, who had just been named president of Mexico to succeed the dethroned Frank Engstrom. After leaving Mexico, I returned to New York on a boat captained by the stalwart Myron Carland. As I went through the vessel with him, I was surprised to see William Donnelly, Lawrence Hovik, and Harold McCJregor in the hold working as stokers. One evening, after arriving safely in New York, I attended a musical comedy. Miss Virginia Currier and Mr. Ralph E. Hackett were playing the leads to per- fection. In the chorus were some other former classmates: Myrtle Eck, Margaret Henscl, Jewell O’Connor, and Nellie Cochran. A few weeks later I was sent by the government to Japan. While crossing North America, I renewed many old acquaintances. In Chicago I was stopped in the railway station by Wallace Thexton, who was then at the head of a syndicate of gobble stick and saxophone blowers, composed wholly of members of the December, 1921, class. In Salt Lake City I met Caswell Thurston and Mauritz Sterner. These wights wanted me to join the Mormons. While spending a few days in and around Hollywood, I was entertained by Clayton Pilkington, the popular screen detective. He had just formed his own company and hired his own leading ladies, Effic Skog, Helen Carr, Cornelia Clousing, and Eleanor Brooke. Leaving America, I sailed for Japan with the new minister to that country, Stanley Dean. His valet on the trip was Leonard Haskell. A party of school teachers were also making the trip. I recognized among them Vera Mentz, Florence Anderson, Mildred Cook, Gladys McCullough, Marion Loy-son, Margaret Wixson, and Mildetta Trenarv. Soon after my arrival I received a message from my secretary in New York to the effect that the country was going mad over a book on Marvels” by Janet Spooner and lone Parsonage. In Japan I was stopped by a beggar, who afterward turned out to be Melvin Kellogg. Traveling on through China, I learned that the Chinese army was led by Frances Moffat and that his two chief aides were Barton Robinson and Everett Jones. In central Chinn I spent n week at the summer home of the Royal Confederation of Ivory Clickers.” I was acquainted with most of the members. The officers were Lowell Arnold, High Maguc; Herbert Carlson, High Muck; Lawrence Johnson, Chief Snake Eye; and Arthur Schwarzkopf, Low Box Car. In Petrograd, Russia, I was surprised to learn that Charles Northrup had been appointed chief assassin of the Russian army. It was here in Petrograd where the famous Russian dancer, Madame Vivian Johnson, had her school. Bernice Gallagher, Gladys Hanson, Irene Larsen, Novia Larson, Stella Olson, and Pearl Sangrenc were her pupils in Russian ballet dancing. In 1935 in London, I met a party of pleasure seekers made up of members of the December, 1921, class. There were Florence Thuras, then an artist; Norman Ron-ning, secretary to the Prime minister of England; Margaret Powers, who had just swum across the English Channel; Clarence Ostcbo, inventor of a new rat poison; Marie Lockhart, and Frank Lindgren. While in England, I stayed at a hotel run by Harvey Dutton and Patrick Knapp. Evangeline Kinnan was in charge of tea rooms in the hotel. At this point in my reverie the vision fades, and the mental rcvieM' of my former classmates becomes but an indistinct haze filled with familiar forms and faces. My last conscious thought before sweet sleep enfolds me is “ Backxcard, turn backxcard, 0 Time, in thy flight.” first chok e secoxd choice Kcth Tiiaxter................Most popular girl........Janet Van Stone Stcaht Cornkli.....................Most popular bop.................Geohok Bkllairk Geraldine Hendrickson.........Classiest girl......................Virginia Brown C.

There was a joy in our hearts—the joy of being students of the best equipped and most beautiful preparatory school in the Northwest. As time passed, and we became upper classmen, our thoughts naturally turned toward graduation as the most joyous event of our school career. Hut as this day approaches, and we give more serious consideration to the change this will bring into our lives, we find our joy tinged with regret that the pleasant associations of high school will soon he at an end. We realize, as never before, what an important place this high school training has occupied in the moulding of our characters, and in the direction of our lives toward those channels which lead to honorable and useful careers. It is at this time, our duty and privilege to pay tribute to the members of our faculty, who have labored so faithfully to create in us a desire for that knowledge which will develop us into good citizens, and which will bring to us all that is really worth while. I.et us then resolve to uphold the faith which our parents and teachers have reposed in us. and so live that we will he worthy witnesses for the standards maintained in dear old Central High.

So thought the faculty and office force when a group of 800 of the greenest of green freshmen entered the great portals in the fall of 1918. Probably the hardest to become acquainted with was Principal It. T. Hargreaves, undoubtedly because of these newcomers own bashfulness. However, a strong friendship sprang up between them and the skipper after the first assembly tinder his supervision. The freshmen learned that in their fellow classmate they had a staunch, true, and amiable friend. They floundered through their first year of I.atin and mathematics, coming out most admirably at the end with the help of the freshman advisers. There were numerous events in the first year at Central. The great war had been in progress for some time, and the interest of the class was held at high tension because of the enlistment of many Central students. The influenza epidemic gave many who were not its victims a somewhat beneficial vacation. Vacations seemed to be in order, for the school soon received another because of the small-pox bug's appearance. This vacation lasted for three momentous weeks. The class of June 22, were now sophomores and every once in a while some of them daringly walked down the front hall just to let the upper-elassrnen know they existed. It is to be taken for granted that some hours of study were put in among all these happenings, for the class soon assumed the title of juniors. Then they did even such daring things as to sit downstairs in assembly, attend a first prom and speak timidly to those wonderful people known as seniors. Members of the class became quite wel laequainted with their fellow juniors, so well acquainted that when elections came in the fall of 1921, and the class were pronounced seniors, they knew that they wanted John Beveridge to lead them. Marie Lynch was elected vice-president, and in the absence of the president conducted the meetings in her smilingly gracious, yet business-like manner. Helen Lang kept the minutes, and class funds were in the keeping of John Van Camp. Winter came, and with it came the December graduation. In compliment to their predecessors the class gave a sunlight dance in the gym. With the advent of the year 1! 22 the class entered the final lap of their high school careers. Came then the deplorable news that the president, John Beveridge, would be forced to leave school in March on account of poor health. In January, at the last class election before graduation, Suart Cornell was elected to lead the class through to commencement. Ruth Thaxter was made vice-president, and Anna Sinnott and Donald Lathrop were appointed to the positions of secretary and chancellor of the exchequer, respectively. Work on the publication of the senior annual, the “Centralinn , began in earnest during the latter part of February. George Bellaire, ns editor-in-chief, supervised the work, with Charles Brown as his chief assistant. Wallace Thexton, a member of the December class who was taking a post-graduate course, was appointed to take charge of the finances of the annual. Other competent seniors were appointed to take care of the various parts of the publication and thenceforth the work progressed rapidly. The senior class, perhaps more than the rest of the school, felt deeply the resignation of Miss Ida V'. Probctt, who, as Dean of Students, had guided them safely through their high school careers. The graduating class, individually and collectively, expressed their appreciation of Miss Probett in every possible manner. Her sweet and noble influence will long be a potent factor in the life of everyone with whom she came into contact. Social events filled the calendar from the latter part of April to commencement. On April 21, the seniors gave their prom in the gymnasium which was magnificently decorated. Two weeks later, the juniors entertained the seniors at a sunlight dance. On May 20th, the last dance of the season was given by the “B“ seniors in honor of the graduating class. The month of June was, as usual, the busiest in the whole high school career of every graduating senior. On the 11th of the month. Reverend Roy I.. Smith delivered the baccalaureate sermon to the largest class that had ever left the institution at one time. The following two days the seniors held their annual class day festivities. Came then the issuance of the “Centralian”, official chronicle of the year's activities and achievements. On Thursday. June 15th, the class marched up and received their diplomas, signifying that they were to leave Central forever as students to go forth to broader fields of endeavor. June, 1022 SEVERAL years ago I was appointed commander in-chief of the International Police Patrol bv Stuart Cornell, chairman of the World’s Council. I found that my first duty was to correct the inefficiencies of the department. I discovered that three of the men then in office were doing unsatisfactory work, so I appointed Hilliard Munvon, Kimball Brook, and Frederick Hilliard to fill their positions. Next I made a complete review of the records. The first entry in the year 1930 concerned a revolt in Iceland led by Perry Brown against the queen, Mary Lee Adams. The next dealt with the rounding up of John Van Camp’s gang of liquor smugglers by D. Danforth Mich, the world-famed prohibition official. Van Camp was still at large, hut several of his accomplices, Arnold Aslakson, Frank Boddy, Harold Tinker, Rees Thomas, Edison Weiss, and Roy Shubcrg were arrested and were still serving time under Lewis Bender, warden of Sing Sing. At the time Robert Thompson, one of my most competent detectives, uncovered a plot to blow up the Wool worth building in New York. Frank Ecklund was found to be the instigator of the plot. He and his accomplices, Guy F'orbes, Clarence Kolcgraff, and Edward Janicke claimed that Mr. Wool worth was a profiteer, and should not be allowed to continue his dealings with the public. Farther in, 1 found that Virginia Brown, Adelaide Roney, Lulu Merchant, and Helen Powell had been members of a gang led by Winifred Noyes and had been baffling the International Police Patrol in their daring daylight robberies. Charles Hocking, another competent sleuth, was called across the world in June, 1933, to recover Eleanor Jo Gihbs’ famous pedigreed poodle. The dog was finally found in a pawn shop run by Daniel J. Sullivan in Greenwich Village. Mr. Hocking also discovered the famous Lynch jewels which had been missing for over a year, and a diamond studded cigarette holder which had been stolen from Ruth Thaxtcr, Mayor of New York. In the fall of the same year Arnold Edelman and his assistants, Louis Wim-racr, Gordon Sutton, John Grout, and Richard Fehlhabcr solved the mystery of Donald Ross, the absent minded professor who disappeared one night, very scantily clad, from Oxford University. The last important item told of the salt mines which had been purchased from Richard Willson and which were under government supervision. Ray Pclling [88] and Dc Witt O'Kicffe were placed in charge of the forces sent to patrol the territory. After the records were reviewed and corrected, my next duty was to make a tour of inspection. I took with me my trusty secretaries, Agnes Fagerstrom, Helen Palmer, and Louise Carlson, and made a trip around the world. My first stop was Spain. I arrived there just in time to witness one of the greatest feats ever accomplished by man. Richard Rodgers and Elmer Ceder left Lisbon, bound for Mars, in a rocket designed by Bennett Clark. The trip was so successful that a rush to Mars followed. Pearl Zrust is a designer of women’s gowns in Mars now, I believe, and Janet Van Stone is police woman on one of the largest Martian thoroughfares. Well—to return to my journey, my next stop was Cairo, Egypt, where I was surprised to find that Kenneth Simms, American consul, had induced the natives to install a fire apparatus. One day I saw Thomas Cavanaugh and Cato Ennis clinging desperately to the rear end of a hook and ladder wagon which w as tearing madly along to save Gordon Bowen’s new stucco duplex. Mr. Bowen’s valet, Edward Stoopes, met the engine at the gate with the news that the fire was a false alarm. In Alexandria, Helen Dew, Helene Moran, Virginia Nelson, Helen Olson, and Martha Katz were conducting a home for the feeble minded. One of the inmates was Edward Thompson, who firmly believed that he was a bottle of hair tonic. In Russia, Paul Boswell, Francis Bcaupre, Wolsley Wolfe, Albert Peterson, Lee McFaddcn, and Wesley Hager were continuing their efforts to overthrow the new Proletariat government. The revolt was successful, and Borghild Gunstad, who had won international fame by her brilliant work during the civil war, was elected president. It was fall before I had completed my tour of inspection through Siberia, and on my return trip I stopped off one day to attend the international tournament which was being held at Pinsk. Ruth Pul rang won the championship, and was presented with a marvelous diamond studded loving cup by George Packard Bel-laire, president of Siberia. A few days after the tournament I received a radio message from C. Weston Lang, fnmous American Wall street broker, saying that he would meet me at the Isle of Mann in his platinum yacht to take me back to New York. At last my journey was ended. It had been one of the happiest trips of my life. I had been all over the world, and everywhere I had found my classmates of old Central. [89] Dramatics pCHOES of enthusiastic applause, memories of beautiful operatic triumphs, reminiscences of powerful dramatic successes — all these are re-awakened when one reflects upon the stage in Central's auditorium. Activities upon that stage have done much to make the school life-voyage interesting as well as beneficial. '901 “THE SCALES AND THE SWORD” FOLLOWING a precedent established in 1921 by their presentation of “A Night at an Inn,” the Wranglers’ club gave their second one-act tragedy, “The Seales and the Sword, at a special assembly under the direction of Mrs. Hazel Lotzc Whittaker, this play proved to be one of the outstanding dramatic productions of the year. A grocery store located in a burning city is the scene of the play. Refugees from the fire troop into this store begging for bread, but the owner, a greedy old man, demands a dollar a loaf for it. The national guards march in and confiscate all the food in the store. The old man resists, and the captain orders him to be shot. So realistic was the illusion created by the actors that the audience fairly gasped when they heard the sharp commands of the officer in charge of the firing squad, the agonized cry of terror from the doomed grocer, and the rattle of the volley that meted out death to the profiteer. Ralph Hackctt portrayed the part of the unprincipled and mercenary grocer in an entirely adequate manner. The part of the patriotic young clerk was well interpreted by Gordon Bowen. Robert Cargill did effective work as the stern captain in the national guards. Besides the leads, the cast included the librarian, Clarence Kolegraff; a drummer, Lissel Leix; a mechanic, Gene Ouslcy; an old Irishman, Thomas Cavanaugh; Bill Jones, a fireman, DeWitt O'Kieffe; a newsboy, Donald Selb. Other refugees were Rowland Dobbins, Richard Fehlhabcr, Elmer Ccder, Thomas Morton, and William Plummer. [911 THE HOODOO DEPARTING for one evening from their usual field of journalistic activity, the Press club of Central high school on December 16, 1921, entered the field of dramatic endeavor. The play produced was Walter Hen Hare’s farcical comedy, The Hoodoo , and if the enthusiastic appreciation of the audience can be taken as any indication, the presentation was indeed a complete success. From the overture to the final curtain, the play was simply one humorous situation after another. Perhaps never before in the history of Central high school dramatics has such a clever and highly amusing comedy been produced. It was the first time in several years that a play had been presented on the Central stage which was purely and simply a comedy. Undoubtedly this fact contributed in no small measure to the success of the Press elub's first dramatic effort. The actors, under the very capable coaching of L. A. Borah, adviser of the Press club, made the most of the humorous action of the play. The main theme of the comedy revolves around the peculiar effect that a certain scarab pin has over whoever possesses it. Brighton Early, who is engaged to the entrancing Amy Lee, first receives the pin as a wedding gift from his uncle, the eccentric Professor Solomon Spiggott. Shortly after lie takes the scarab, Dodo De Graft, a former chorus girl, appears at the pre-nuptial party and threatens to expose an almost forgotten love affair between her and the bridegroom. The scarab pin passes from one to another at the party, bringing misfortune to whoever has The Hoodoo” in his possession. Billy Jackson, Brighton Early's best man, while he has the scarab, finds himself engaged to three girls at the same time, and a number of ludicrous situations result from his efforts to extricate himself from his difficulties. Finally, however, Dodo is satisfactorily disposed of, Billy becomes happily engaged to the girl of his dreams, and everything is lovely in the romance of Brighton and Amy. George Bcllaire gave a comprehensive interpretation of the part of Brighton Early, the sorely beset bridegroom-to-be. Ruth Pulrang charmed the audience with her winsome playing in the role of Amy Lee. Dan Mich gave an excellent portrayal of the difficult part of Professor Solomon Spiggott, while the character of the beautiful and unscrupulous Dodo De Graft was splendidly portrayed by Eleanor Gibbs. Harold Tuncll was a handsome and convincing heart-breaker in the part of Billy Jackson. The greatest individual hit of the performance was scored bv Charles Brown in the comedy role of Ilcmachus Spiggott. He added to the already humorous part an individuality that made his perhaps the best portrayal of the evening. Ralph Hackctt had a difficult character role, that of Malachi Meek, to enact, but he gave a superb interpretation to the part. De Witt O’Kieffe as Mr. Dunn, the burglar, Eli7.abeth Campbell as Mrs. Ima Clinger, La Reign Hunter as Doris Ruffles, Ann Sinnott as Aunt Paradise, Irene Smetana as Mrs. Spiggott. Pearl Zrust as Mrs. Perrington-Shine, Marie Tintinger as Gwendolyn, Jean Morrison as Lulu, the maid, Alice McCauley as Miss Longnccker, Lucile Caron as Angelina were all good in their respective parts.

The proceeds of this play were donated to the Stadium fund. The play satirized the existence of social cliques and snobbishness in a girls' school. It included nearly every type of college girl—the snob, the cutie, the hoyden, the popular girl. Marie Lynch as Dave made a gracious and popular leader of her class and later a gallant hero in the class play. Frances Berger portrayed the part of the sweet, unselfish girl in a charming and realistic manner. Virginia Brown as Constance, and Eleanor Gibbs as the socially ambitious snob portrayed the college highbrow” very well. Dorothy Hastings made a hit as the cute girl of the class. I.orainc Bradley in the role of Heavy was a witty girl of the piece. Bunny, the calm, sweet-tempered little peacemaker of the crowd, was well played by Florence Kirk. The other players in the cast were Catherine Byrnes as Ellen, Helen Olson as Kitty Thomas, and Lucille Caron as Betty Wilson. Much of the success of the play was due to the splendid coaching « f Miss Grace A. Williams. LITTLE WOMEN” CAST “LITTLE WOMEN” ITTLE WOMEN the quaint and appealing play of the December class of I j 1921, was presented on the nights of November 17 and 18 with great success. The proceeds of the first night’s performance were given to the Stadium fund. The story takes place during the time of the Civil War. It gives a beautiful picture of the family life of the girls of the March family. The heroic effort of Jo to procure money to send her mother to the bedside of her father is only one of the interesting incidents of the play. Ralph Hackctt, although hampered by a serious injury sustained in football practice, played the part of Laurie. His acting had almost the ease and charm of professional work. Virginia Currier as the charming and temperamental Jo added greatly to the success of the play. The part of the prim, ladv-like Amy was well portrayed by Martha Gcmmcll. The character parts of Hannah, the maid. Professor Bhacr, and Aunt March, taken by lone Parsonage, Philip Atlas, and Marie Lockhart were represented especially well. Meg, the eldest sister, was played by Cornelia Clousing. Alice McHugh was the invalid Beth, and Wallace Thexton and Evangeline Kinnan were Mr. and Mrs. March. The parts of Mr. Laurence and John Brooke were well done by Laurence Hovik and John Wightman. The costumes not only harmonized very prettily with the setting, but they also were true to the period. The class is greatly indebted to Mrs. Whittaker; for her skillful coaching of this play was in great measure responsible for the success of the production. 1971 THE MIKADO OX the evenings of February 22 and 24, the Central high school Glee club presented its second performance of “The Mikado,” Gilbert and Sullivan’s Comic opera classic under the direction of Sydney H. Morse. The various colored costumes, the excellent staging, and the well drilled chorus were the outstanding features of this production. This opera differed from the previous ones in that the feminine leads, Yum Yum, Pitti-Sing, and Peep-Bo, were taken by different members of the club each night. On the first night Vivian Drake was Yum Yum, Nanki-Poo’s sweetheart. The parts of Pitti-Sing and Peep-Bo were played by Harriett Johnson and Margaret Lindquist. The roles of the sisters were again well taken on Friday night by Catherine Collins, Dorothy Keniston, and Grace Williams. Ko-Ko, the Lord High Executioner, as played by Phillip Atlas, was at all times clever and entertaining. Mr. Morse as Xanki-Poo, the Mikado’s son, did excellent work both in singing and in acting. Kenneth Ferguson as Poo-Bah, aptly named on the program Lord High Everything Else, took his part well. Katisha, the husband-hunter, was well played by Mattie Peterson. Her representation of the adhesive Katisha was very effective. Neil Mannerud as Pish-Tush, a noble, and Robert Raymond as Mikado were well cast in their parts. Mr. Morse again showed his exceptional ability to direct comic opera classics by this successful production of “The Mikado.” A reproduction of “Robin Hood” was given in the early fall for the benefit of the Stadium fund. This was made possible by the kindness of the original cast and chorus. The revival scored a distinct success. [991 5, “CAPTAIN JINKS OF THE HORSE MARINES” APTAIN Jinks of the Horse Marines” has come and gone in all his glory, _j scoring unquestionably the greatest hit of recent Central dramatics and playing before a packed house at the single performance Friday evening, May 19, 1922. From every point of view the production was a success. “The play’s the thing” which in no small measure helped to make the performance a memorable one. Robert Carollton Jinks, a young man about New York in the ’80’s, comes with his two good-for-nothing chums to the dock to welcome to America Madame Trentoni, a young and beautiful priina donna. The plot centers about the light-hearted Jinks, who bets his companions a thousand dollars that he will get up a flirtation with Madame Trentoni. Janet Van Stone gave to the part of Aurelia natural beauty of both face and voice, excellent poise, and a great deal of acting ability, her charming personality lifting several of the lower scenes above the mediocre level. Probably her best scene was the one which closed the second act. The naturally appealing character of Captain Jinks was played with sincerity and dash by De Witt O’Kieffe. At no time during the entire performance did his impersonation lose the vigor and feeling so essential to the part. These factors, together with a handsome face and presence, made his part a distinct hit. Dan Mich contributed a highly satisfactory and pleasing characterization in the difficult role of the dancing master, foster father of Aurelia. His work was marked by a depth of feeling and restraint which made the part perhaps the most convincing of all. Next honors for “heroic work under fire” go to Flmer Cedcr, who proved to be the comedy hit of the evening as the newsboy-bellhop who continually bounced on and off the scene with everything from ice-water to bad news. Wonderfully suited to the part bv nature, he added to his advantage a clever interpretation of lines with the result that his every appearance was greeted by laughter. Frances Berger played well Mrs. Greenborough, the lady companion of Aurelia, who hadn’t had a chance to finish a sentence for 20 years.” Gordon Bowen played the foppish “villain”, Charles La Martinc, carefully and sincerely, his sneer being almost a work of art. Augustus Bleeker Von Vorkenburg (“Gussie”), the other Judas, played the part effectively. The smaller parts in the play were for the most part satisfactory. Vivian McPeek successfully played Mrs. Jinks, the “Captain’s mother. Adelaide Roney was a very prim little lady representing the Anti French Literature League, and Virginia Brown was her deaf and dumb companion. The ballet, especially Dorothy Thorne, who presented a solo, danced well. F.mma Krumwicde was Mary, the maid. The parts of the detective, policeman, telegraph boy, and sailors were taken respectively by Louis Wimmer, Charles Hocking, Don Sclb, Gilbert Moy, and Richard Wilson. To the skillful direction of Mrs. Hazel Lotze Whittaker the great success of the play may be largely attributed. Mrs. Whittaker, who has unquestionably brought the laurels for local high school dramatics to Central, is recognized ns one of the best dramatic directors in Minneapolis. (1011 Footlights Club Productions “THE FLORIST SHOP” THE Footlights club made its first public appearance in The Florist Shop”, a delightfully entertaining one-net play, at an assembly on April 29, 1922. Tile story concerns the trials of Maude, the shop keeper, who is employed by Slovsky. Maude takes pity on Miss Well, who has been engaged for a period of 15 years, and helps to bring about the marriage of Miss Wells and Mr. Jackson. In the meantime Maude is fired because of her extreme extravagance in the giving away of orchids, but she regains her position eventually. Dorothy Hastings gave a thoroughly artistic impersonation of Maude. Her actions were most natural. The part of Miss Wells, Mr. Jackson’s fiancee, was portrayed in a very effective manner by Zeona Austin. In the character part of Slovsky, a shrewd business man, Clarence Kolegraff showed real talent. Robert Cargill's portrayal of Mr. Jackson was highly entertaining, and Henry Willson was convincing in the role of a clerk in Slovsky’s store. The scenery was very attractive. Mrs. Hazel I.otze Whittaker coached the play, and to her skillful handling much of its effectiveness was due. [102] “ROOMS TO LET” AMONG the many delightful numbers given on Class Day, June 12, 1922, was .“Rooms to Let,” a one-act play presented by the Footlights' club. This play is a combination of romance and comedy. The plot of the play revolves around the fact that Betty and Madge, students at summer school, take a room in Mrs. Smythe’s boarding house. The late tenants of the room, Dick and Tom, return to get some of their possessions which they had forgotten to take. Dick disguises himself as a book agent and wins attention plus fifty cents from Madge. Tom coincidentally meets Betty, the girl he has been waiting for for four years. Aunt Matilda discovers that Jerry is the postman, that he is the Gerald she has been waiting for for eighteen years, that the proposal was just an initiation stunt, and that he already has a wife and four children. Many complications arise then, but they are overcome. The cast of characters was Mrs. Sraythe, Elizabeth Hartzell; Betty Breeze, Jean Morrison; Madge Wales, Ruth Colbv; Dick Rush, Robert Cargill; Tom Warren, Paul Kanuit; Matilda Judd, Dorothy Gregory; Jerry, William Walker, and the maid, Esther Melquist. Mrs. H. L. Whittaker gave unselfishly her time and put her talents as a coach at the club’s disposal. Members of the Footlights' club feel that they owe a debt of gratitude to her for her discriminating criticism and her generous support. “MR. SPRIGGS’ TRIP TO EUROPE” 11 dTR. SPRIGGS' TRIP TO EUROPE,” an amusing one-act comedy, was pre-XT A sented by the Footlights' club on Centralian Day, June 13, 1922. Mr. Spriggs is a small, mild-mannered man about 30 years old. He comes home from a banquet intoxicated and falls asleep in a chair. His dream reveals to him the scheme his wife intends to carry into effect—a trip to Europe. She browbeats him into giving his consent and then leaves. In an old traveling bag he finds souvenirs which remind him of a former trip to Europe made when he was still single. Incidentally his affairs with girls in the countries he visited are brought back to him when each girl visits him and tries to beguile him away. He locks each girl in a different room until his house is full of girls. His wife comes home and finds girls' personal properties all around the house. She leaves him immediately. Mr. Spriggs talks himself to sleep and wakes up to learn that he is just a bachelor. The lends were taken bv Gordon Bowen as Mr. Spriggs, and Adelaide Roney as Mrs. Spriggs. The other characters were Dorothy Hastings, the Spanish girl; Jean Cotton, the Dutch girl; Eleanor Jo Gibbs, the French girl; Esther Melquist, the Scotch girl; Marian Johnson, the Russian girl; Virginia Brown, the Japanese girl; Virginia Candreva, Sally; and George Isenberger, Cliloe. This play was coached by Ralph Hackett, who has probably had more experience in dramatics than any other amateur in Central. Athletics f ENTUR1ES ago, when sailing vessels roamed the seven seas in guest of gold and adventure, it icas customary for representatives of the various frigates to compete against each other in furiously com-bated tug-of-war matches. In these more modern days, that same energy is expended in interscholastic athletic competition. Centrals trophy case, on the main deck, is ample proof that the Red and Blue representatives in the various forms of athletic endeavor have been, as a rule, highly successful. [1041 THE ATHLETIC STADIUM FOR years Central has had the dream of becoming the proud possessor of an athletic field. At last this dream is coming true. Last year the school board selected the site for the new field, the grounds purchased extending from Thirty-fifth street to Thirty-sixth street, and from Fourth avenue to Clinton avenue. A sufficient sum was raised, under the auspices of the Alumni association, to fill and grade the field so that it is now in good condition for baseball practice. On account of the lack of fence and bleachers no admission can be charged for any games held there this year. At present the Alumni association has on hand a sum which is being increased by contributions. When this sum is sufficiently large, it will be used to further the work on the field. An attempt was made this spring to get at least two tennis courts for the spring tournament, but because of the lack of funds these were denied the school. The greatest interest has been displayed regarding the field although it still remains a level piece of ground. How much more will interest and enthusiasm be increased when the full quota of $50,000 has been subscribed and the project finished? A completely equipped field house with locker room and shower facilities has been incorporated in the architect’s plan for the completed stadium. These plans also provide for a grandstand and bleachers with a seating capacity of 6,000, a football gridiron, a baseball diamond, a five-lap cinder track, two tennis courts, and possibly a hockey rink. All this will be enclosed by an ornamental concrete fence which will be built at an expense of $‘8,000. When all these plans have been successfully carried out and the field is officially dedicated, there will be great rejoicing on the part of every Central student, alumnus, and faculty member. 1105 J l«OIJ FOOTBALL REVIEW ITH an even break in the matter of games won and lost, the 1921 Central football team finished the season in third place. Although starting slowly, the Red and Blue eleven was developed by Weston W. Mitchell into a most formidable machine. Coach Mitchell’s gridiron warriors gave the championship East aggregation its hardest battle, losing 7 to 23 after one of the fiercest encounters of the The Cardinals, with ten veterans back from the 1920 squad, won the first football title that East has captured since 1915. Under the tutelage of H. E. Behna-mnnn, a new coach, the fast Red and White eleven featured the open style of play, and forward passes from Guzy to Borne and Miscovitz won most of the East victories. The first conflict of the season for the Central team was the one witli West, always regarded as a bitter rival. During the entire first half, the rival elevens battled on even terms, neither side having any good opportunity to score. The steady plunging of the West backs, spectacular open field running by Martin Norton, and the play of Harry Beum on the Central line were the features of the opening period. In the third quarter, after recovering a Central fumble, the Green and White warriors crossed the Red and Blue goal line for the first score of the contest. The touchdown came on a forward pass from Langford to Morris on Central's 20-yard line. Anderson kicked goal. West scored again in the final period, when Morris intercepted a pass from Moore and raced across the Central goal line. This time, goal was missed. The lone Red and Blue touchdown came as a result of wonderful individual work by Captain Norton. By a scries of sensational runs, be carried the ball GO yards down the field to the West 20-vard line. He scored on a long pass from Bellaire just as the final whistle blew. In the second contest of the year, North was defeated 13-0. It was a rather slow game. Martin Norton again starred, running through and around the Blue and White forwards almost at will. Bellaire made the first Central touchdown five minutes after the game started, and the count would have been more overwhelming had not Coach Mitchell rushed in a horde of substitutes in the last half. Next came the memorable battle with the Eastsiders. It was in this contest that the trusty toe of Don Carr first proved its prowess. Soon after the start of the second quarter, the speedy Central halfback kicked a beautiful dropkiek, giving Central a temporary lead of three points. The advantage was short-lived, however; for the Cardinals, aided by two passes from the hand of Peter Guzy, scored in the final session, although Norton time after time threw scares into the Cardinal rooters with his brilliant open field runs. The Red and Blue team tried desperately to overcome East’s 7-3 lead and several times appeared to be on the way to success, hut in each case Coach Behnamann’s eleven took the hall away from the Central team just when they were getting dangerously close to their goal. An immense throng of approximately 6.000 spectators witnessed this game and were unanimous in proclaiming it the most thrilling contest of the season. year. 11071 In tlie final game of the season Coach Blaine McKusick’s South warriors fell before Central 3 to 0. Again in this game Carr proved his worth as a dropkieker. He made the only score of the contest with a perfect kick from the 35-yard line. Later in the game Carr proved his ability as an open field runner, dodging and squirming his way through the Orange and Black team 65 yards, crossing the goal line only to be recalled by the referee because of an infringement of the rules by a Central lineman. That was the closest that either team came to scoring a touchdown although the Red and Blue outplayed their opponents a great deal more than the score indicates. St. Paul Central's fast team, who later won the championship of the St. Paul high schools, were the victims of Coach Mitchell's squad in a pre-season game on the Macalester College gridiron. The score was 11-7. The game was the first real interscholastic clash of the season for both elevens and was contested with all the fire and zeal of a mid-season game. The inexperienced Red and Blue back-ficld men were effective, gaining from three to ten yards through their opponents’ forward wall on practically every rush. Bcllairc carried the ball across the goal line for the first score of the game five minutes after the first quarter had started. Captain Norton made Central’s second touchdown in the third quarter after a thrilling dash around the Red and Black's left end. With the game safely won, Coach Mitchell rushed into the game practically every substitute on the squad. In the last period the St. Paul Central team opened up a forward pass attack which netted them their only touchdown just before the final whistle. When the season is opened next fall, five 1921 letter men will answer the call of the Central coach. They are Captain-elect Don Carr, “Pud” Moore, Ed Carlisle, Harry Bcuin, and Calvin Libby. [108] HOCKEY THE first hockey team to represent Central in interscholastic competition since 1917, the Red and Blue team of 1921-1922 finished second in the local high school race, with four victories and two defeats. The Central sextet was defeated only by the championship West team, which twice won from Coach Paul D. Paine’s men in close struggles. West was not defeated by any Minneapolis team, but was beaten by St. Paul Central for the twin city championship. In their first encounter of the season the Central puck men were victorious, defeating East, 4-1, in a well-played game. Their play in this first contest showed lack of finish, but a great deal of promise for the future. The next game, that with West, was the feature contest of the local season. Showing superior team work, the fast Green and White six triumphed, 3-2, after a gruelling battle. Captain Edward Stoopes and Sidney Lesperance were Central stars, and Wallace Remington and Richard Sawyer were the West luminaries. The second and third Central victories came in the next two games, which were with South and East. The Orange and Black sextet was downed, 2-0, in a fast tilt, and the Cardinals lost their second game to Coach Paine’s men, 5-2. After these two encounters, the undefeated West six was again played. As before, the individual brilliance of the Central men was forced to bow to the finished team play of their rivals, and the Green and White players clinched the city title by winning, 4-1. In the season’s final struggle, South was again beaten, this time by the one-sided count of 7-1. Men who were awarded letters in hockey for their work during the season were Captain Stoopes, Captain-elect Lesperance, Larson, Dungan, Peterson, Strong, Moore, and Stoddard. Of these, all will return for next season, with the exception of Stoopes and Moore, and Central chances for a hockey title next year are considered exceptionally good. BASKETBALL REVIEW HY winning six straight games after dropping their first two, the 1922 Central basketball team placed second in the percentage column, and were responsible for the only defeat suffered by the championship South quintet. With only two members of the state championship team of 1921 back, the play of the Red and Blue five in the first two encounters was far from equal to that of the fast, well-oiled machine which represented Central in the second round of games. The season was one of surprises and thrilling contests in which the winner was undecided until the final whistle. West, well supplied with veterans from the fast Green and White squad of the previous year, was conceded a big edge at the start of the local race for premier honors. Only in the games with North did the favorites live up to expectation, however, and South and Central both forged rapidly to the front, the former team gaining the championship because of a disastrous Red and Blue defeat at the hands of the North team in the first game of the season. Unable to find the basket in their initial 1922 appearance, the Centralites fell victims to a surprising attack by the Northsiders, losing by a score of 18 to 15. The two outstanding Red and Blue stars in this game were the veterans “Pud” Moore and Captain Gail Greenhalgh, the former making every Central counter, and the latter aiding materially in keeping down the opposing score. When they went into their next game, their first with South, Coach J. C. Henderson's charges were conceded little chance to win because of the disaster at North, but it was only after a thrilling, sec-saw battle that the Orange and Black floor men emerged victors by an 18 to 17 count. As in the previous contest, Moore scintillated on the offensive, and Greenhalgh was again a tower of strength on the defensive. Captain Roger Wheeler was the Orange and Black mainstay, his excellent floor work and superb foul-line work being large factors in the one-point victory won by the Southsiders. The first Central victory of the season came in the first of two memorable battles with West, the pre-season favorite, and an old Central rival. Confident because of an overwhelming victory over North the week before, the Green and White were not expecting stiff opposition; but in one of the most exciting encounters of the year the fighting Central warriors scored a merited victory and started West on the way to near the bottom of the ladder. The final score was 14 to 13. Coach Henderson’s players finished the first half of the schedule with a 19 to 11 victory over the strong East five. In this game a swift co-operative style of team play on the part of the Red and Blue team proved too much for the Cardinals. There were no individual stars of great brilliancy, although Moore played his usual strong game. Avenging the defeat handed them in their first appearance of the season, the rising Central performers next took North’s measure, 19 to 10. The Red and Blue machine which overwhelmed Coach Kennedy's proteges was a vastly different team from the one which had lost to the same five in the first game. Passing and shooting with precision, the Central warriors swept their way down the floor for basket after basket and earned a clean-cut decision. (ill) A battle royal, in which only three field goals were made by both sides, resulted when Central and South clashed the second time. Fast and furious from start to finish, the conflict was practically even until the last quarter, when Ralph Williams and “Pud Moore gave Central an 11 to 8 lead. Central held this lead to the final whistle. Never until the closing minutes of play did cither team possess an advantage of more than one point. The second West battle, however, provided more thrills than any previous encounter. With but two minutes to go, the Green and White five was leading, 10 to 9, and the Central cause seemed lost. Their opponents’ lead seemed, however, to instil an invincible fighting spirit in the Red and Blue players. “Pud Moore scored two field goals in rapid succession, and to add to the thrills of the afternoon, Cecil Keegan, center, dropped in a third from the center of the floor, giving Henderson’s lads a 15 to 10 victory. It was easily the most sensational finish ever seen in a local high school contest. The sixth straight victory came in the final game of the year, the second battle with East. The Cardinals were turned back by an 18 to 13 score. As in the previous contests, Moore and Grecnhalgh outshone their mates, with Harry Bcum putting up a very creditable exhibition at guard. When the call goes out for the 1923 season, four members of this year’s fighting quintet will answer. “Pud” Moore, Cecil Keegan, Ralph Williams, and Harry Bcum will return for new laurels. The loss of Captain Grecnhalgh is a severe one, but with the four veterans mentioned hack, a championship Central five is by no means an impossibility. 11121 CROSS COUNTY REVIEW DEFEATING all opponents except the championship West runners, the Central cross country team of 1921 finished in second place in the local competition. The close of the season found the Red and Blue harriers in the runner-up position for the second successive year. George II. Reed, a new coach at Central, developed a formidable team of hill-and dale runners, despite the fact that he had but two veterans back from the previous year. With an imposing array of 1920 letter men, the West team went through the season without a setback, and was a comparatively easy winner of championship honors. Individual glory, however, went to Captain Orville Mathews of East, who finished first in every race he ran and set a Glen wood course record of 14 minutes, 1G seconds. The Red and Blue team started the season with a loss, their only one, at the hands of the fleet Green and White harriers. Coach Zadovsky’s men, taking the first two places, won, 34 to 28. Carl Peterson, who finished third, was the first Central runner to breast the tape. From that time on. Coach Reed’s charges swept aside all opposition, defeating South, North, and East in successive meets. In the race with the Southsiders, the Red and Blue harriers scored an overwhelming victory with a count of 40 to 15. Adding further to his laurels, Carl Peterson placed first in 15 minutes, 29 seconds, the lack of competition accounting for the slow time. Ray Dungan, also of Central, finished second. The defeat of North the following week was almost as decisive as that administered to the Orange and Black, the Blue and White runners losing to Central, 39 to 1G. In this race, Peterson was barely nosed out by Tromcnhauser of North, who took first place. The time was 14 minutes, 59 seconds. In the final meet of the season, the Central runners triumphed over East, 30 to 25, although the Cardinals were favored to win. It was in this race that the speedy Mathews established the course record, his new mark bettering his old one by 12 seconds. Peterson and Dungan were the Central stars, placing third and fourth, respectively. The cross country letter men for 1921 were Captain Don Wittgraff, Ray Dungan (captain-elect), Carl Peterson, Howard Graeber, John Wheclock, and Edwin Hutchinson. Dungan, Peterson, and Hutchinson will form the nucleus of the 1922 team of harriers. It 141 FRESHMAN BASKETBALL WITH a record of six victories and two defeats, the Central freshman basketball team of 1922 finished second in the standings among the local first year quintets. Coached bv L. E. Orr, the Red and Blue freshmen developed into a fast, smooth-working team which made trouble for every other five in the race. The East team won the city championship, going through its eight game schedule undefeated. The Cardinals were given the stiffest opposition by the Central yearlings, who lost two hard fought struggles to the title winners. The greatest interest in freshman basketball ever displayed in Minneapolis was in evidence during the season. The games were played on the days before the big contests and they were always well attended. It was the second year of freshman basketball competition in Minneapolis, and the yearling teams were given almost as much student support as the first squads. In place of the “C’s” which were given members of the regular team, special monograms were awarded to the Central freshmen who participated in the contests during the last season. Those who received these monograms for work on the 1922 Central quintet were Ewald Rchnberg, Philip Trapskin, Gordon Willis, Walter Richards and Edward Colliton. (US1 « SWIMMING WITH a complete triumph in the Northwestern meet as a climax, the swimming season of 1921-1922 was one of the most successful in the history of Central aquatic teams. Not only did the Red and Blue tank stars win the interscholastic championship of the Northwest, they also won the city title, and, with only three men entered, took five first places to finish second in the state meet at Duluth. To the efforts of the swimming brothers, Sam and Jim Hill, is due a large portion of the success gained by Coach Harry E. Vincent’s proteges. These two brilliant performers were the luminaries in every meet which Central entered, and entirely unaided except in the relay, they won the Northwestern title. The first aquatic clash on the Central schedule was with West on November 29, 1921, the Green and White swimmers being defeated 42-23 by the speedy Centralites. It was the last interscholastic competition for Captain Frank Besscs-sen and John Wightman, both of whom were graduated in December. In subsequent meets the Central aquatic stars defeated West twice by scores of 42-23 and 35-33. In a contest with the St. Paul Central team, the Red and Blue swimmers came out on the short end of a 39-29 count. It was the only defeat of the season for the Central squad in a dual meet. In the state interscholastic meet at Duluth, the Central mermen, with only three men competing, placed second. The last and most important of the season's swimming meets, the Northwestern, was won by Central, with Shattuck Military Academy of Faribault placing second. Sam Hill took first in the 40-vard free style and 100-yard breast stroke, and second in the 100-yard free style. Jim Hill was returned victor in the backstroke. The relay, the deciding event of the meet, was won by the Central quartet. 1116] [117] 1811] 1921 TRACK TEAM TRACK AGAIN beaten for first honors on the cinder-path by only West High, the Red and Blue track stars finished in the runner-up position for the interscholastic outdoor season of 1921. West also carried off the championship on the indoor oval, while Kast nosed out Central for second place. Early in the season it became apparent that Coach L. E. Orr was destined to turn out a strong aggregation of runners, and the prediction was verified when Central took fourth place in the Carleton meet, the feature event of the season, with 17 points. West, as was expected, won the meet, largely through the splendid work of Captain “Tommy” Rugg. I)on Carr, Captain McLaughlin, George Bel-lairc, and John Van Camp were the point winners for the Red and Blue. Carr took a first in the 220 and placed second in the century. McLaughlin, Bellaire, and Van Camp earned their points in the 880, pole-vault, and discus, respectively. In the city meet held at Northrop Field, Central finished second. Carr broke the tape in both the 220 and 100 yard dashes in this meet. Early in the season Captain George Stover suffered an injury to his knee which forced him to give up track for the time being, and he left school. To fill this vacancy, Don McLaughlin, premier distance man of the squad, was elected captain. After a comparatively poor start in the indoor season, he captained the squad to second honors in the outdoor meets. At the city meet last spring, Van Camp broke the Central record for the discus, hurling the platter 112 feet, 6 inches. Bellaire also starred and made Rugg, of West, stretch himself for pole-vaulting honors. [1191 TENNIS WINNING the city championship and going to the finals in the Northwestern meet, the Central tennis team of 1921 enjoyed a very successful season. Captain Charles Caton was physically disabled for the first part of the season, and was able to enter only the Northwestern meet, where he advanced to the semifinals. The first encounter of the season was with the West team, which was defeated, hO. Cornell, Norton, and Tatham, with Cornell and Norton in the doubles, were the men who were victorious in their matches. Homer Tatham was the only man to lose his match in the competition with East, which the Red and Blue racquet wieldcrs won, 3-1. Cornell and Norton again played together in the doubles. Stuart Cornell was the only Central man who did not enter the Northwestern meet, which was won hv Joe Chambers of St. Paul Central. Tatham was eliminated in the second round, and Caton reached the semi-finals. Norton fought his way up to the finals, only to lose to the St. Paul expert after an exceedingly grueling match, in which deuce games were the rule, rather than the exception. As an innovation in intcrscholastic tennis, a schedule of fall matches was played. Central net men lost close matches in the competition, and were nosed out by both North and West, who took first and second places respectively. Captain Cornell, McCaskill, Saunders, and Carr were the Red and Blue representatives in the autumn competition. Captain Cornell won the individual honors in the city, being undefeated by any opponent during either season. Cornell is the only veteran of last year’s championship team to return this year, but the 1922 spring tournament is expected to bring out a wealth of material for the vacancies on the Red and Blue court team. [120) MU [1211 UZU BASEBALL ITU five victories and three defeats, the Central baseball team of 1921 finished second in the local high school race, headed only by the great East nine, which went through its eight-game schedule undefeated. The Red and Blue team, under the tutelage of J. C. Henderson, played winning baseball all season, losing two games by one run margins. In their first tilt of the season, the Central diamond stars scored a well-earned victory over West, the Green and White team being defeated 7-3. Foster Edwards, who pitched the entire game for the Red and Blue, kept the hits of the Green and White batsmen scattered and was particularly effective in the pinches. Hits by Harry Masters and Jimmy Williams at opportune times, together with West errors, gave the Central athletes their runs. A week later North was beaten 5-1 in a well played contest. Edwards started on the mound for Henderson's nine, but was relieved bv Masters in the sixth when he injured himself in running the bases. Wesley Strouts, a veteran of four years, twirled for the Northsiders and put up a good exhibition. The first loss of the season occurred in the next game, which was with the fast East team. Peter Guzy, Cardinal hurling sensation, held the Red and Blue sluggers in check, while his team mates found Masters for eleven hits, and rushed across five runs before Carl Thomas was sent to the rescue. Thomas was sent back to the mound against South, the next opponent of the Red and Blue nine. In this, the first start of his high school career, the tall heaver demonstrated that he was of first-string ability by holding the Southsidcrs to seven hits, the Central lads winning 6-2, after getting to “Bill Keegan, Orange and Black ace. Masters, Williams, Clymer, and Fleming were the heavy hitters for Henderson’s team. A ten-inning battle resulted when West and Central clashed the second time, the Green and White nine nosing out a 3-2 victory in the tenth. Edwards, on the mound for the first time since his injury, pitched a good game until the tenth, when two hits and a fielding flurry let in the winning score. The second tilt with East was a remarkably thrilling ball game, with Guzy and Thomas in a magnificent pitching duel. The little Cardinal star was as usual a puzzle, and the big Red and Blue flinger was equally hard to solve. East put over the only score of the game in the fifth on a walk, a sacrifice, and a single, and neither team was able to score from that time on. A homcrun by Captain Ted Clymer with the bases full won the final contest of the season from South, the Orange and Black team losing, 1-2. Clymer’s long drive brought in all the Central scores, and with Thomas holding them to two safe hits, the Southsidcrs were fortunate in crossing home plate twice. The 1922 nine will be weakened by graduation, but with Captain-elect Ennis, Thomas, Bcggs, Moore, Sweeney, Anderson, and Fleming back. Coach Henderson's prospects are far from gloomy. II23I cp1= 3) MARTIN NORTON (Captain) In a fitting conclusion to one of the most brilliant athletic careers in local high schools, Martin Norton piloted the Red and Blue football team at quarterback during the 1921 season. Ilis ability was recognized and feared by opposing coaches, who groomed their elevens in defenses especially designed to stop the Central whirlwind. Despite this fact, however, Norton's .spectacular open-field runs were the features of the season, and his deadly tackling was instrumental in keeping down the scores of Central opponents. HARRY BRUM Playing his first season of inter-scholastic football, Harry “Dutch” Bcum gained the enviable distinction of being chosen as all-citv guard by every Minneapolis newspaper. He was a tower of strength on the Red and Blue forward wall, outplaying every opponent against whom he was pitted. A marvel at breaking up line smashes and at opening holes for the backfield men. Beum is expected to be one of the mainstays on the line next fall. He still has two years of gridiron competition ahead of him. “PUD” MOORE PrxriNG and forward passing were “Pud” Moore’s chief duties, and he was hard to equal in either department. Speed and drive combined, however, to make him a ground-gainer of no mean ability. Having received just the necessary amount of seasoning to make him a star, Moore should be an important cog in the Red and Blue scoring machine of 1922. GAIL GREENHALGH Ability to discern the nature of an opposing plav and an unlimited amount of fight made Gail Greenhalgh a tremendously essential unit in the work of Couch Mitchell’s team. Playing at end, Greenhalgh displayed unusual staying powers and broke up play after play that was sent in his direction. [124] DONALD CAR It (Captain-Elect) Ai.Tiiorciii inexperienced and unknown, as far as football was concerned, Iwfore the start of the 1921 season, Don Carr developed rapidly, and was one of the bright lights in the play of the Central eleven in the last two games, with East and South. Carr’s remarkable drop-kicking in the latter contest saved the duy for the Red and Blue, and in the former accounted for the only score which was marked up ugalnst the Cardinal champions during the entire season. In addition to being a drop-kicker of extraordinary ability, Curr was the fastest halfback in the city Inst year, and is expected to be one of the Central luminaries during the 1922 gridiron season. GEORGE BELLA I RE Oxe of the fastest and most effective line smashers in the city, George Bellaire was an invaluable asset to the Central eleven in 1921, his second year of high school competition. Playing at fullback most of the year, Bellaire gained the reputation of l eing a hard-driving plunger who never failed to gain. Because of his sure and accurate tackling, he played at end on the defensive and was extremely effective in this capacity. RUSSELL SCHMID A formidable menace to opposing backs was Russell Schmid, who played a consistently strong game all season at guard. Large and powerful, Schmid was a never failing source of defensive strength on the Central line, and his general ull-around ability earned him u position on u majority of second all-city teams. His graduation has left a vacancy that the coach will have difficulty in filling when the candidates answer the call next September. GERALD SULLIVAN Sclijvax, also a tackle, was another forward who came along slowly, but who, once developed, was an effective aid in making openings for the backs and in stopping the attack of opposing offensives. His graduation in December was an undeniable loss to the Central football forwards. 11251 DONALD LATH HOI Although an injury to His shoulder kept him out a large part of the season, Don I.athrop was recognized as an outpost of no mean ability. Excellent hcadwork and never failing courage marked his work at all times, and he made plenty of trouble for backs who attempted to gain around his end. EDWARD THOMPSON Pi.aviso his second year at center, Ed Thompson was an important factor in the stiff defense put up by the Centralites in the center of the line. Besides contributing to the effectiveness of the forward wall, Thompson was an accurate passer and a good offensive linesman. Killing his position will be one of the problems confronting the 1922 coach. EDGAR CARLISLE A VKTKRAJf tackle with worlds of football ability, Ed Carlisle did not find himself until the 1921 season was well under way. His playing in the last two games, however, was admirable, on both offensive and defensive. and his bulky form will greatly add to the strengtb of the 1922 eleven. RICHARD RODGERS Rodgers was another wing man who, though not a brilliant performer, was a hard-working, conscientious athlete. He broke through opposing lines on many occasions, stopping plays for losses, and also worked well on the offensive. [1261 GAIL GREKNHAI.GH (Captain) Without a peer in the city as a defensive star, Gail Gretmhalgh was an invaluable asset to the Central basketball team of 1922, and was the unanimous choice of critics for an all-city position. Although he played at running guard during most of the season, Grcen-Imlgh’s natural position is that of stationary guard, where his superb fighting qualities and his ability to break up plays make trouble galore for opposing forwards. His passing and pivoting arc above reproach, and his tenacious perseverance has won him the plaudits of both friend and foe. Combining good basketball with good head work and leadership, Grcenhalgh made an ideal captain, and it is certain that the 1928 quintet will have difficulty in replacing him. HARRY BE CM Plavixo his first year of high school basketball. Hnrrv Beam made a great showing at standing guard. A veritable Rock of Gibraltar under the basket. Ileum prevented score after score, and was placed on the second all-city team by several sport writers. RALPH WILLIAMS Although the smallest player in local high school circles. Ralph Williams was rated as one of the scrappiest forwards and one of the most accurate shots in the city. Fast and clever, and always in the fray, Williams was a great asset to the Central team. lie has three more years of inlerseholastic basketball to play, being only a freshman in 1922. CECIL KEEGAN KeeOax was a substitute when the 1922 season started, but he developed rapidly and was regular center at the close of the schedule. A fighter from start to finish, and a capable floor man, he was a strong factor in the Red and Blue victories. Keegan will also return next year, and should be u star of the first magnitude in 1923. “PUD” MOORE (Captain-Elect) Ax all-star man in 1921 and the unanimous choice for an all-city position in 1922, “Pud Moore was one of the brightest spots in the play of the 1922 Central quintet, winning high scoring honors for the city in addition to being a star at dribbling, pivoting and passing. Selected by bis mates to lead the 1923 five, Moore is almost certain to be the most important cog in the offensive of the Central basketball team of next year. [1271 CAPTAIN DON McLAUGMLIN McLaughlin was elected captain at the beginning of the season in place of George Stover, who left school. A successful captaincy was handicapped l� v the fact that the team was shy on hurdlers and weight men. However, he captained a team beaten only by West. His specialties were the 4-10 and 880, and he was a sure placer in these events. CAPTAIN-EI.ECT DON CARR Carr ran his first season this year, and, even though Imthered by an injured leg, was conceded hv many to he the fastest man in the city. At Carleton he took the 220 and placed second in the century, and at the city meet he captured both events. Carr is a natural born sprinter, and has a beautiful stride. A successful season for the 1922 team is assured under his leadership. Carr was Central's high point man in both the Carleton and city meets. JOHN VAN CAMP Van Camp distinguished himself by breaking the Central discus record. He made the distance of 112 feet, t� inches and easily placed first in the local meets. Van Camp is back next year, and should be better than ever. frank McWhorter McWhorter was practically the only high jumper of ability on the Central squad, ltugg of West was the only man who could beat him regularly. McWhorter cleared 5 feel, l inches consistently. (1281 GEORGE BKLLAIRK Bellairc was the only man in the twin cities who could uttempt to complete with “Tommy” Rupp in the pole vault. He placed second in ever)' meet in which Rupp was entered. Ilis best height is 11 fret, 2 inches, made this season. Besides being a pole vaulter. Bella! re is a sprinter and broad-jumper of no mean ability. CHRISTY MURNANK Murnane ran the low hurdles and vaulted. Although not a brilliant performer, he was a hard worker and could be relied upon for his share of points. RICHARD RODGERS Rodger’s specialty was the high hurdles and he placed in most of the meets. Rodgers also runs the 440 and 880. He has another year. CALVIN LIBBY The low hurdles, the broad jump, and the dashes arc Calvin Libby’s specialties. A great deal is expected of this athlete in the future, for he has three more years of service on the Red and Blue track team. [129] SAM HILL, Captain A star in every meet, Sam Ililt was the most brilliant aquatic performer on any high school team in Minnesota during the last season. He swam both free style and breast stroke, being a consistent winner in the dashes from 10 to 220 yards. He is Northwestern Junior champion, and is widely known ns a coining leader among the best swimmers in the country. He will be back next year again to uphold the honor of Central in competition with swimming teams of other schools. JIM HILL Although he had never participated in an interscholastic swimming meet previous to last December, Jim Hill soon proved his worth to the Central tank team, and before the end of the season was sharing the limelight with his more experienced brother. His specialty was the backstroke, in which event he was not defeated all season. He also won points in other events and will be a mainstay of next year’s aquatic team. AI.DEN OLDS Olds’ event was the plunge for distance, and during the recent season he never failed in any meet to add points to the Central total. In the state meet at Duluth, he surprised the dope experts by winning his event with the long plunge of 54 feet, 2 inches. His loss will inevitably be noticed in contests next year. JOHN WIGHTM AN Second only to Sam Hill as a star performer in the dashes, John Wightman was a consistent point winner in every meet in which he participated. Wightman was a valuable aid in defeating West for the championship of Minneapolis. His graduation has left a vacancy that will be hard to till when the next swimming season is at hand. MABEL JOHNSON FAE WOMACK Girl Cup IFinners EDNA KALLBERG GIRLS’ INTERSCHOLASTIC TENNIS TEAM [1311 rr 3) CHAMPION GIRLS’ INDOOR BASEBALL TEAM CHAMPION GIRLS’ VOLLEYBALL TEAM 11321 [133] Organizations S sails are necessary to a sailing vessel, so are active organizations an imperative need in school life. And the good ship Central is indeed well equipped with these mediums of progress. Carious integral groups and organizations are constantly at work with the avowed purpose of keeping the bark on which Central students are making their four-year voyage alive and moving. Without these organizations the institution would indeed be “a ship without a sail.” g . U34] © B. A. A. ONE of the largest organizations in Central and undoubtedly the only one which is directly responsible for keeping the athletics of the school alive is the Hovs’ Athletic association. This association was organized not only with the purpose of giving the athletic teams financial support, but with the aim of giving its moral support to Central’s athletic activities as well. Every boy in the school is eligible to membership in this organization. Membership fees are collected once every quarter, and the sum obtained is used to purchase the necessary equipment for the teams, and to pay any other expenses that arise during the season. All boys who actively participate in athletics arc requested to be members of the association. Active members are thus in a small way helping to purchase their equipment. Each member of the Boys' Athletic association receives a double benefit from his membership; in addition to having the satisfaction of maintaining school athletics, he is entitled to a reduction on his ticket for each sport contest held during the year. The administration of the association is under the supervision of the board of control. The members of the board are It. T. Hargreaves, school principal, I.. E. Orr, athletic director, and the captains of the major and minor sport teams. 19CI] SENIOR COUNCIL SCHOOL administration finds a new aid in solving problems in the recently formed Senior Council, a body composed of 18 members appointed from the senior classes by their respective presidents, and four students elected by the junior classes to represent the underclassmen. This group is the direct outgrowth of Principal R. T. Hargreaves' belief that students may find help in conducting the various activities of the school through discussion of current problems by a representative body. Basic plans for the organization were formulated at a conference between Mr. Hargreaves and the presidents and secretaries of the senior classes. The A senior class is represented by the following eight students: Stuart Cornell, Ann Sinnott, Ruth Thaxter, Marie Lynch, John Van Camp, Howard Graebcr, Edmund Sampson, and Vera Fitch. The B senior members arc George Bush, Ethel Russell, Harriett Campbell, Albert Allard, Clifford Blix, and Dorothy Gregory. La Reign Hunter, Janet Pomeroy, Adclbcrt Hcbncr, and George Townsend represent the junior class. Several urgent problems which confronted the organization at its first meeting were the classification of offices and a decision as to how many major and minor offices can be held by one person; the replacement of the shaft in the soldiers’ memorial, w’hich had been damaged by the sun; the appointment of monitors for the library and ushers for the auditorium; a spring clean-up campaign, and means of discovering talent among the students. After the council began to have regular meetings every week, it was not always convenient for Mr. Hargreaves to meet with the group. Adelbert Hebner was chosen to act as a permanent chairman and Ann Sinnott was chosen secretary. “Tills organization,” said Mr. Hargreaves, through the direction and guidance of school problems, makes for citizenship.” U371 I8EI] o AGRICULTURAL CLUB AGRICULTURAL CLUB ONE of the newer clubs organized within the school this spring is known as the Central High Agricultural club. This club endeavors to interest other students as well as those taking agriculture. Active members are seniors, juniors, sophomores, and second and third quarter freshmen. Inactive members are first quarter freshmen, and the teachers of agriculture in the city. Honorary members are the principal and assistant principal of Central. Regular meetings of the organization are held semi-monthly in the school, at which times prominent agriculturists speak on subjects of direct interest to the club. Professor J. S. Benner of the University of Minnesota College of Agriculture and others have spoken before the club. An occasional social affair held outside the school helps to hold the interest of the members and promote an atmosphere of good fellowship among them. The officers elected at the first meeting of the new group arc Joe Fleming, president; John Wheelock, vice-president; Lyman Graeber, secretary, and Allen Smith, treasurer. [1391 BOTANY CLUB STUDENTS of Central who arc interested in botany find a source of common interest in the Botany club, an organization which has steadily worked itself into prominence in school activities. The object of the club is to promote further interest in the study of the lives of all species of flowers and plants, and to create a better spirit of good fellowship. The advisers of the organization are Miss Jennie Hall and Miss Cora M. Groth. Both these ladies are instructors in the science department of the school. The officers from September to December were: President, Donna Blake; vice-president, Alice Hanson; secretary, Mildred Iiallock; treasurer, Dorothy Christianson. From December to June the officers were: President, Donna Blake; vice-president, Mildred Hallock; secretary, Alice Hanson; treasurer, Genevieve Christen. A play called “The Enchanted Garden” was given at an open meeting February 28. Those who took part were Alice Hanson, Martha Dobbins, Helen Boody, Genevieve Christen, Mildred Hallock, Harriet Campbell, Laura Page, Helen Moore, and I.ucile McCauley. During the year several short lectures have been given by members of the faculty on different phases of the subject of botany. Last fall Miss D. Hutchinson of the history department lectured on the topic, “Greek Myths and their Relation to Flowers. The members of the Botany club maintain that a good time as well as useful knowledge is obtained by attending the meetings, and a proof of this is shown by the large number who attend. [Ml] 11421 CLUB THE “C” CLUB ALTHOUGH the “C” club was organized only a year ago, its influence has already been felt widely in Central high school. The purpose of the club is two-fold: First, to form a lasting organization which will hold together all the “C” men, past and present, of Central high; and second, to carry out the plans for the Central High Alumni Athletic Stadium. The officers of the club elected last January arc Gail Grcenholgh, president; Don Carr, vice-president; Don I.athrop, secretary. Last fall, work was begun on the field opposite Central high school. The work went forward with a vim until the weather made it impossible. Last spring, it was continued as soon as the snow melted. Club members all look forward with eagerness to next September, when they expect the Stadium to be finished. Every “C” man has been heart and soul back of the project. The alumni, led by Principal R. T. Hargreaves, have been working steadily to swell the subscription fund. Every Centralite, freshman and senior alike, has given his best efforts toward collecting the $50,000 necessary. The dream is about to be realized; the plan is about to be carried out. Much of the credit is due to the unflagging efforts of the members of the “C” club. 11431 Ihi] (|=(l= CADET CLUB THE increasing desire of the Central high school cadets for training was realized in 1920 in the organization of a cadet club devoted to the furthering of knowledge concerning military tactics, and to the promotion of interest in military training. With Major W. S. MeWade as the adviser of the club, many successful social events have featured the school year. An extremely successful supper was given for the West high school cadets, and later a private dinner-dance was given for all the cadets of the Minneapolis high schools. The banquet was served in the school lunch room by a few members of Miss Marian Krink’s cooking classes. After this a dance was held in the gymnasium. Any boy may be a member of this organization who is now or has been a member of the cadet corps. The present membership is about eighty boys. When the club was formed the membership was only thirty; this increase, of course, shows the development in the interest of the club. Dick Decker was the president from September to December; Howard Graeber, vice-president; William Walker, secretary, and Itoy Nyquist, treasurer. The officers chosen to lead the club from December to June were Howard Graeber, president; Ed Hutchinson, vice-president; John Lauren, secretary, and Harold Wilson, treasurer. [14SJ 19H] © THE FRENCH CLUB SCENE:—Housekeeping suite. Wednesday afternoon. Occasion:—“The Dansant” given by “Le Foyer.’ Characters:—Any two members. First Member:—Ou etes-vous going out to-night? Second Member:—Je suis going a Helen’s. F. M.:—Oh! S. M.:—Isn't cette tlic good? F. M.:—Oui, let's dancer. S. M.:—Certainmcnt, juste unc minute till jc finis cette cracker. Three years ago, in 1919, the French club—“Le Foyer”—was organized. The main object of this club is to promote the use of conversational French. During tlic time the refreshments are being served, only French is supposed to be spoken. “Dishes” of tea, or—more recently—“Eskimo Pies,” always urge sociability; therefore, there are many fluent conversations in the language of courtesy.” “The dansants” are especially popular. Great quantities of tea and cookies disappear at each meeting. However not all of the club’s time is spent on frivolous matters. During the last year many interesting programs were presented before the club. Many of them were scenes from French plays and stories. At one time “A Turkish Love Scene” was presented. Only the letters of the French alphabet were used, but nevertheless, the meaning was very cleverly conveyed to the audience. At another time a scene from Molicrc’s play, “Le Bourgeois Gentilhommc,” was given in French. The officers elected in January are Elsa Everett, president; Martha Katz, treasurer; Marie Lynch, vice-president; Dorothy Hastings, secretary. To the officers, and to the club advisers, Miss Dikka Requc, and Mrs. Alice M. Drcschler, for their steady and unselfish efforts, the French club expresses its sincere thanks. 11471 THE G. A. A. OPEN to freshmen as well as upper classmen, the G. A. A. has the largest membership of all the clubs in school. In it every girl ought to he able to find something to do, even if it is only to go to the parties. But so many sports are offered that any girl ought to be able to find at least one that she is interested in. Indoor sports are volleyball, track, indoor baseball, and swimming. Outdoor sports are hiking, tennis, and skating. Every year class tournaments arc held in volleyball, and indoor baseball. Track meets, which arc held every spring, are very exciting affairs. Nearly every spring some athletic record is broken. Swimming meets arc held at the Y. W. C. A. Hiking forms an interesting sport, especially to those who love nature. In the tennis meets the winner competes for city championship, and many very exciting matches are played. Skating is a very popular sport, and during the last winter many girls reported at the rinks. The goal for all girl athletes, as well as for boy athletes, is the red and blue “C’ This reward is given after a girl has gained 600 points. A silver loving-cup is also being offered to all girls who succeed in making 1000 points. The G. A. A., alternating with the Girls’ club, gives a party every month to the new “freshies.” Many interesting stunts are carried out each time. Girls are coming to the front in athletics as well as in other activities. Such an organization as the G. A. A. can not fail to meet even the most recent demands for athletics and recreation. CMS] THE FOOTLIGHTS CLUB TIME: :30—One March afternoon in 1922. Place: Just outside room 102. “Only two more places. I wonder who they’ll be!” “Did you get in?” “Aren't these tryouts fun?” “Congratulations, I’m so glad you got in.” Thus, through the efforts of students who realized the need for a dramatic club in school, the Footlights club was organized. Tryouts were held in March and twenty-five members were selected. The officers who were elected are Robert Cargill, president; Janet Van Stone, vice-president; Elizabeth Hartzell, secretary, and Daniel Mich, treasurer. Already the club has proved its worth. Three one-aet plays have been presented since the organization of the club. The first, The Florist Shop,” was presented at an assembly April 27. All the characters were excellently portrayed. Those in the cast were Dorothy Hastings, Robert Cargill, Clarence Kolcgraff, Zeona Austin, and Henry Wilcox. The second play presented, “Mr. Spriggs’ Trip to Europe,” was given on Cen-tralian day. The leads were taken by Gordon Bowen and Adelaide Roney. Other members of the cast were Dorothy Hastings, Jean Cotton, R. Marian Johnson. Eleanor Jo Gibbs, George Isenbergcr, Esther Melquist, Virginia Brown, and Virginia Candreva. “Rooms to Let” was given on Class Day with the following cast: Elizabeth Hartzell, Esther Melquist, Robert Cargill, Paul Kanuit, Jean Morrison, Ruth Colby, Dorothy Gregory, and William Walker. Owing to the fact that so many members were graduated in June, tryouts were held again in May for all juniors wishing to join. All credit for the excellent work done this quarter by the club is due to Mrs. H. I.. Whittaker, who acted as conch for the plays, and faculty adviser to the club. [1491 GIRLS' CLUB o GIRLS’ CLUB THE Girls' club of Central high school is an organization composed of the junior and senior girls of the school. Formed with the idea or encouraging higher ideals, and of promoting a spirit of cooperation and fellowship, the club has created enthusiasm among the girls and the students at large. Besides engaging in its usual activities, the club has given an entertainment for the freshmen girls, and girls who are new to the school, hv giving parties for them. In doing this, the club has helped the new-comers to become better acquainted with those in the upper classes. This year the girls have done more settlement work than they have in the former years. At Thanksgiving and Christmas manv poor families were given dinners, clothing, and toys. Since December the poor families in this community have been cared for regularly. This year the dub have contributed generously to the Stadium fund. The successful production of “The Class Play” by the club enabled them to donate a considerable amount of money for this purpose. On Forget-Me-Not Day, the members of the club volunteered their services. Again this year the Girls’ club entertained the Upper-Classmen club of West high school. For the fall quarter Jean M. Cotton was elected president; Charlotte Howard, vice-president; Helen Jane Dew, secretary, and Norma Everett, treasurer. After the Christmas holidays, Ruth Thaxter was made president; Janet Van Stone, vice-president, Mary Lee Adams, secretary, and Norma Everett, treasurer. The Girls' club stands for the highest ideals of womanhood, and the encouragement of education with a view toward social betterment and service. It is the desire of each girl to take for her motto that of the club, Growth, Education, and Service.” With the Misses Gude, Mears, Turnquist, Forester, Reque, and Williams as advisers, the club has received invaluable suggestion in making its undertakings successful. (1511 US!] GLEE CLUB ONCE more the Central high school Glee club has proved itself worthy of the highest praise possible. Nine years ago the Glee club was founded through the efforts of Sydney II. Morse. Every year since then the members of the club have produced at least one opera. Each year the members of the club have worked diligently and each year they have produced a better opera than ever before. Last February the opera “Mikado” was successfully presented in the Central auditorium. Previous to that time the opera “Robin Hood,” which scored a great success in March, 1921, and was repeated in October, 1921, achieved even more of a success. The quality of the voices, and the manner of presentation of both of these operas have seldom been equaled by amateurs. Some of the earlier operas were “Pauline,” “Bos’n’s Bride,” “Pirates of Penzance,” “Erminic,” “Rip Van Winkle,” “Pinafore,” and Dorothy.” However, not all of the time of the club has been devoted to the operas. The Glee club, entirely or in part, has furnished much delightful entertainment at many of the assemblies. It has taken part in the baccalaureate services of both the December and June classes. The choir of Park Avenue Congregational church, which has been declared one of the best in the city, is made up almost entirely of Glee club members. The officers of the dob were: President, Kenneth Ferguson; vice-president, from September to December, Lucille Fletcher; from December to March, Francys Shull; from March to June, Ruby Pierce; secretary, Vivian Drake; treasurer, Emerson Woodward. Through the persistent efforts of the club, of the executive staff, and above all of Sydney II. Morse, club adviser and conch, the Glee club is one of the most worth-while clubs in Central. 1153] HI-Y CLUB TO create, maintain, and extend a high standard of Christian character throughout the school and community’' is the motto and high ideal of Central’s Hi-Y club, an organization composed of the junior and senior boys of the school. Among the accomplishments of direct importance to the school during the last year were the publication of the Red and Blue book, the friendship campaign, and the freshman reception. The Red and Blue book was particularly successful; more than 1300 copies were sold. As a result of the widespread circulation of this valuable handbook, a complimentary letter was received from the school authorities of Spokane, Washington. The friendship campaign enabled every junior and senior boy to meet men of his chosen profession, and to receive advice from them. The freshman reception, an annual affair in honor of the incoming freshmen, was a great success, insuring the guests of honor the right start in Central and a real taste of the school spirit. In addition to the campaign conducted, the Hi-Y club also has charge of the second-hand hook room, and the maintenance of order in the school assemblies through members who act as ushers. Among the prominent men who have spoken at the regular meetings of the club were President L. IX Coffman of the University of Minnesota; Professor P. Elmer, a sociologist of the University, and Superintendent W. F. Webster of the Minneapolis public schools. Joe Fleming was made president in December; l)e Witt O'Kieffe, vice-president; Richard Fehlhabcr, secretary, and George P. Bcllaire, treasurer. In March Joe Fleming was again elected president; Ben Van Sant, vice-president; Richard Fehl-liaher, secretary; and David Marclay, treasurer. [1551 V LATIN CLUB PERHAPS the only Central club to uphold the classic spirit, the Latin club has enjoyed a successful career since its founding in the fall of 191G. Interest in the club has always been keen among the Latin students and teachers. With I). S. White as faculty adviser, the club gave many interesting programs of the classic nature at their regular meetings. The purpose is not to give all the club’s time to entertainment alone, but to further instruction and information in the classics and to supplement the work of the class room. Besides developing the literary interests, the club has progressed socially. An evening of fun was enjoyed by the club last fall, when a sleigh-ride was held for all the members. This encouraged acquaintanceship among the members of the Latin department, and brought the teacher and student together in closer social atmosphere. Charles Northrup was elected president for the fall quarter; Adelaide Orficld, vice-president; Frank Schneider, secretary, and Lois George, treasurer. Those chosen to lead the club since December were: President, Helen Shepherd; vice- president, Grace Gardner; secretary, It. Marian Johnson; and treasurer, Lew Cornell. 11571 18S11 PRESS CLUB PRESS CLUB HE “power of the press is well exemplified in Central high school life. A newcomer among Central organizations, the Press club has already won its spurs by service to the school. By its meetings and enterprises the club has tended to maintain the interest of the student body in journalism and, more concretely, in the Central High News. Pounded by L. A. Borah, director of the Central High News, and entirely composed of members of the News stnfF. the club is of necessity vitally interested in the school publication. The membership is limited to twenty. The production of The Hoodoo ' a three-act comedy, by the Press club was one of the interesting and outstanding events of the school year. The play, which was coached by Mr. Borah, proved a financial and dramatic success, and was well liked by faculty and students alike. In March the club visited the printing plant of the Minnesota Daily Star, receiving both pleasure and instruction from the trip. Members of the club enjoy social times after the close of business meetings, which are held every other week at the homes of members. Plans for the future include talks to the club by local journalists and further trips to newspaper plants. It is expected that another play will be presented sometime in the fall. Officers elected in December were Charles Brown, president; Anna Sinnott, vice-president; Eleanor Gibbs, secretary, and Ralph Haekett, treasurer. Thomas Cavanaugh was chosen president in March; Dorothy Hastings, vice-president; Eleanor Gibbs, secretary, and Daniel Mich, treasurer. SCANDINAVIAN CLUB SCANDINAVIAN CLUB THE Scandinavian club of Central high school is devoted to the accumulation of knowledge of the Scandinavian language and customs, and the creation of better fellowship and of a better school spirit among the members. Toward these ends, a great deal has been accomplished in the last year under the leadership of Anna Berg, president; Delmar Blocker, vice-president; Ruby Swanson, secretary; and Florence Shurson, treasurer. The advisers of the club are Miss M. Lundeen and A. C. Erdahl, who arc both instructors in the language. Any student is eligible to a membership in the club who has already studied, or is now studying the Scandinavian language. The club has now a membership of about 30. Meetings are held the second Thursday evening of every month in the housekeeping suite. A large number of members is always present, and a high degree of enthusiasm is shown. A short program is given at each gathering, and frequently well-known speakers arc secured, such ns Dr. Richard Burton, who spoke December 15. In choosing these speakers, the object of the club is always considered, and in this way the club has developed into one of the most promising in Central for future years. Though the Scandinavian club is one of Central’s newest clubs, it has made great progress since its origin. [1611 (1621 SPANISH Cl.I B o SPANISH CLUB QIEMPRK Vitos.” Always Alert.” is the interesting and appropriate motto i of the Central high Spanish elub. This club was organized in 1920 by the late Miss Edith Broomhall, who was instruetor in Spanish at Central. The object of the organization is to further interest and knowledge in the language and habits of the Spaniards. A great deal of interest is shown in tin- elub because of the ever increasing popularity of the Spanish language. Any Student is eligible to this organization who has studied or is now taking up the study of the Spanish language. Meetings for this elub are held every other Wednesday afternoon in the house keeping suite. On alternate Wednesdays executive gatherings are held by the officers and chairmen of the several committees. The attendance at the open meetings is always good, and a remarkable sentiment of good fellowship predominates among the members. During the last year, among the social events were an open house and a sleighride, which were both extremely successful. The adviser of the elub is W. II. Newman. The officers from September to December, 1921, were Martha Gemmcll, president; Adda Barker, vice-president; Everett Jones, secretary, and Everett Ostlund, treasurer. From December to March the officers were: President. Camille Bangs; vice-president, Rudolf Meyers; secretary, Mildred Ferguson; treasurer. Perry Brown. From March to June, Perry Brown was president; Camille Bangs, vice-president; Rudolph Meyers, secretary, and Marcella Hartman, treasurer. [1631 c )nr = 3 TORCH SOCIETY THE first Minnesota high school to be granted a charter in the American Torch society, Central was admitted to membership in this nationwide organization last December. Like the Phi Beta Kappa honor fraternity in colleges and universities, the Torch society includes the first ten per cent, scholastically, of every graduating class, and is the leading high school honor society in the country. About 35 students of the class of June, 1922, are members of the Torch society. At a banquet given for these students by members of the faculty, the following officers were elected, the first Torch society officers to be chosen at Central: President, Daniel Mich; vice-president, Borghild Guns tad; secretary, Marian Johnson. At a recent convention of secondary school principals in Chicago, principals of Torch society schools voted on a pin to be worn by members. The emblem decided upon shows a hand bearing a torch upon a background of stars and stripes. The pin is in the shape of an old Homan coin. Although only recently organized, the Torch society has already met with success. Educators feel that it is filling a need which has long existed—recognition of superior scholastic work in high school. (164| TRIANGLE CLUB ONE of the best known and liveliest organisations for underclassmen is the Triangle club, an association of freshmen and sophomore boys, with the same purpose and ideals as its big brother group, the Hi-Y club. The Triangle club holds its meetings every Thursday under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. During the fall quarter the meetings were held in the Y. M. C. A. building. Later in the season a gymnasium was secured as a meeting place. From time to time throughout the year joint meetings and suppers were held with the other Triangle clubs of the city. The boys concerned with these meetings derived much benefit from the talks delivered by the older men connected with the Y. M. C. A. Among the men who have spoken before the gatherings arc Raymond Overmirc, Ralph Yeoman, and Frank Tupa. In the early part of the winter a campaign for new members was undertaken. This campaign proved to be very successful; a large number of boys joined the ranks of this high-standing organization. Club emblems, pins, and monograms were also purchased by the members of the group. Officers for the fall quarter were Sam Hill, president, and John Howard, secretary; but later ns new members were added another election was held. Sam Hill was again chosen president; Carl Hittleman, secretary; and Norman Dockman, treasurer. Officers for the spring quarter were Bernard Rose, president; Ronald Stewart, vice-president; Carl Hittleman, secretary; and Thomas Walsh, treasurer. Steve Fleming of the Hi-Y club of Central acted as leader and chaperon of the Triangle organization throughout the year. He was assisted by Ben Chapman of the Y. M. C. A., supervisor of all the Triangle clubs of the city. I16SI .9913 1 WRANGLERS’ CLUB WRAXGLKHS’ CLUB FORMED in 192I for tin- purpose of “creating and advancing literary interests among the hoys of Central high school.” the Wranglers have made an enviable reputation in a comparatively short length of time. To the Wranglers the school is largely indebted for the reawakening of interest in debate and oratory. Impromptu speeches, debates, and literary programs have aroused enthusiasm among the members and. through them, in the general student body. The successful production of Lord Dunsany's great one-act tragedy, A Night at an Inn, and later. “The Seales and the Sword. brought to Central a new interest in dramatic tragedy. That the club has achieved its aim was proved when the only boys to make either team of the Warren debate were members of the Wranglers. As a result of the preliminaries for the Macalestcr extemporaneous speaking contest, the four chosen in the finals were Wranglers. The two selected to represent Central at Macalestcr were chosen at an assembly. Officers for the fall quarter were Ralph Haekctt. president; Charles Brown, vice-president; Everett Jones, secretary, and Norman Anderson, treasurer. Those chosen in December were De Witt O'KictTe, president; Rowland Dobbins, vice-president; Richard Fehlhabcr, secretary, and Gordon Bowen, treasurer. In order to become a member, a candidate is required to present his name at a regular meeting of the club. At the next meeting the aspirant is voted upon and given the privilege of delivering a speech to insure his genuine interest. It is the intention of tin- club to present a tragedy in assembly each year, in order to maintain a higher standard of literary feeling in Central. WV'RE : [167!

CLOWNS ■ROUSTABOUT INTAKE CHA.RWCR 1UER tlNSLEADEPP- SIANESE TWINS TENT- GUARD THE HAREM ACROBATS IftAGIOlA STRONG KvAN BROWN 1171] 11721 FOODBALL TEAM ALTHOUGH crippled (several of the squad had paralysis of the knife-hand) Coacli W. W. Mitchell whipped his bread-line hunch into shape, and premier gorging honors were carried off in the Wrlgley League. The squad started practice on a light diet; to be exact, toast and coffee; but as business l ecame better, they switched to wheat cakes and sausage. When the crowd was broke, strict training rules were kept. Harold Heidtnan broke truining once; he found a quarter in the gutter. It was feared at first that the services of I.ang, star sccnter, would be lost to the eleven when, in a playful practice, Hackett, stellar butter, fed him 14 cold pancakes. However, by the use of a stomach pump and some of Childs' soup, ull harm, except the check, was uverted. Several games were engaged in by the foodballers. In the Wrigley game Mich and Swanson starred for the winning Central aggregation by putting six pies over the waistline for a calldown (bv the Management). Hackctt and Travis shared honors in the Loppy Shop game, although the Black and Blue came out on the .short end of a $2 check. Frunkman, Cavanaugh, and Van Camp earned places on the mythical all-night eleven by their persistent staying qualities. A feature introduced by Bcllaire was the novel way of selecting a captain for next year’s gang. Hebner and Murch, the only men who will be back, were blindfolded, and a cup of Java was set before them. The one who guessed most accurately whnt the contents were got the job. Murch guessed mouth-wash, while Hebner called it Minnehaha Bale. The cuptnincy was awarded to Murch, for a committee of competent judges decided it wus mouth wash. Platter men for the vear were: MriCH, Captain Collect Swanson, bill Pickles Fraxkmax.

Utility IS a season featured by many breakings of records. Coach W. A. Nordby has piloted his track bunch through to a successful finale. The successful finale was the Arcadia meet In which Central entries pulled off a riot which had to be quelled by the police. Truck followers will be glad to know that the season will last all summer this year and that there is to be a penny dance every night except Saturday. Bud Craddick broke the record for the mile when the practice floor was pinched during a hot practice in the evening. He was not officially timed, but he passed three “Yellows” and a street car. Dobbins also was discredited with a new time when he mude the floor around five times in six minutes flat on a crowded night. Ceder added to Central’s laurels by consecutive nights, he l eing present 23. He wouldn’t have stopped there if it hudn't happened that he had to Ik in the class play that night and he “didn’t get out curly enough.” According to the squad, much of their success is due to Coach Nordby. Mr. Nordby “knows the ropes” and he loves to show the 1m vs around and keep them in practice. This year’s crop of track men are Norman Anderson, Lewis Bender, Harry Craddick, Moody McCuskill, Don Fitzgeruld, Howland Dobbins, Elmer Ceder, and Bill Falconer. HOOKEY TEAM UNDER the impetus of a new coach, O. K. Kucnster, hookey was doubly revived as a major, minor, and neutral sport, or business, of some students, this last year. Care was used by Coach Kucnster at the start of the season to tutor his proteges carefully in all the departments of the game, especially the advance under cover. Mr. Kucnster illustrated this method by several trips to West. The members of the squad, in particular Sullivan, soon got the hang of it and practiced it perfectly until they were adepts. For the interest of those who might be interested, a skipping average has l een computed, refuted, and disputed. Grcenhalgh leads the team in this place with C. Brown a good second. The figures are ns follows: SKIPS TIMES ATTEMPTED COMPLETED TIRED ASSISTS ERRORS PCT. Grcenhalgh...................... 50 48 3 15 6 .9G0 C.

I)., on or about Friday, the thirteenth of May, 1879. (This day, Friday the thirteenth, is by many considered very unlucky). His parents are now very superstitious. His early childhood was marked by smallpox; in fact he still displays the marks. (Tuesdays and Fridays free to the public, on other days 37c, peace tax included). At the juicy age of five he exhibited an overwhelming propensity for plants. Oft and again in those days of innocent occupation he would sit for hours in rapt contemplation of his father's heating plant. Even such n trivial incident as the hatching out of an egg-plant by a motherly Awk would hold his attention for days and days (to he more accurate, twenty-one days). Timothy was a vicious reader, lie perused everything from street-car cards to the Daily Star. At one time he suffered a nervous breakdown ns a result of reading at one time 27 continued stories in as many magazines. The strain was so great that it was thought at one time he would have to give up his correspondence course in “Constructive Will-Power, or the Eucalyptus Method.” As was the custom with many children of his age, lie was sent to public school at the age of six. No one knows less than he how lie worked in the elementary institution. He applied himself there for 12 years, although in after years he was wont to sav that he knew that if he'd studied more he could have made it in 11 easily. In high school he was hut little better. No matter how hard he tried, he never was able to get along with his teachers. As be himself quaintly put it, “Them durn fools don’t know nuthin’.” However, being of a forgiving nature, he overcame this handicap and after seven more years of arduous toil was passed (with thunks) to the senior class, where he hesitated until his three-year-old brother caught up to him. The two were graduated together. For an outline of the remainder of Dr. Wofford’s eventful life, see the biographical bit. A BIOGRAPHICAL BIT Woitomd. Timothy Qiwckknhish.

We have discovered the in-atc and latent as well as far-reaching youthful hobby of Mr. Wofford. In his youth nothing gave him more pleasure than to referee a good slow chess game. He tells us of one game that descended from father to son for three generations and then the war broke it up. Mr. Wofford also wishes to bring out the fact that the life of u chess umpire has just as many thrills as that of a baseball arbiter and many are the chestnuts that have liccn thrown at him. Many and far-reaching are the cries of “Kill the Umps that have assailed his senseless ears. Below is a picture of Wofford during his earlier days, refereeing a breath-taking two year match. Wofford has a great future before him if he ever lives down his past. 11771 DRAMATICAL above their heads all right, all right. They called the women little, but I’ll tell the world, they got off big. Again Muekett had only a minor part, being just the hero and leading man. The cast presented it two (2), too many nights. They (the cast) liked it so well that they wanted to put it on the rest of the month, hut the “Sons and Daughters of I Won’t Get-up,” had the lunchroom the following Monday, so it was impossible (the play). Va. Currier made a cute “little Joe,” as did the remains of the cast. After the second night (yeh, it got through a second). Mrs. Whittaker, coach, may the saints be praised, treated the gang to a scrumptious b ilcd dinner, accumulated the first night of the infamy. The audience had been prepared. The next day a silver collection was taken to buy flowers for her. The sum of $1.19 (discount off for three Canadian nickels) was apprehended. A nice, classy flower was bought, ami paid for, and sent to her at the St. Bnr-nabns. “THE CLASS PLAY” Everybody's doing it. So the Girls’ club attacked “The Class Play.” As least Jean was for it. so she was put on. (I mean the play, not Jean.) It was a regular play, two acts two bits, and too long. .Marie Lynch was the amalgamated oil stock as Dave, the hero. Virginia Brown and Frances Berger shared horrors as the heroines. The rest of the cast were good looking, and irresponsible, at times some of the more versatile being even mediocre. It happened to be very exciting; people fainted from exhaustion and everything. Miss Grace Williams coached the affront, but she must be held perfectly blameless, because the club asked her first. “THE SCALES AND THE SWORD Auaix the Wranglers’ club had the nerve to risk death or severe bodily injury when they insulted the faculty, student body, janitors, mail-man, lunch room help, stage bunds, office clerks, librarians, and even Major McWadc, by throwing at them “The Scales and the Sword.” It is said to be a Harvard play. If it is, the cast should la- in Yale (as the Irish up here say). The play was pretty sail, though, because they shot Ilackctt, the leader, at the end of the hemorrhage. The sad part was that they didn’t shoot him before. Even the onions in the store scene felt, we should sav smelt, bad about it. “THE WHO-DO” Tiik Press club did it, darn ’em. The play was ejected December 16, to the tune of “How Dry i Am.” The principal problem was to find the author and make him apologize. At various intervals throughout the performance loud guffaws of laughter by the actors aroused the audience from fitful slumber. The only voice to be heard farther away than the tenth row was that of Director Borah telling Chuck Brown to get off the flower-bed. Betlairc displayed splendid “artistic restraint,” sometimes restraining himself from delivering his lines for as long as ten minutes. When the curtain for the third act fell apart, Dan Mich’s makeup did likewise. The only dark spot in the crime was Ann Sinnott as the blond cook. KR RORS NAUSEATING, DISHEARTENING. PITIFUL ATTEMPTS LITTLE WOMEN” Tiik December class flavored with the above. It was [1781 © ALL THE WORLD’S A CAGE SKVFVibAHA-sN,,F5s “CAPTAIN JINKS OF THE HORSE MARINES” The unfortunate play was billed ns a comedy, but the actors were the only ones that appreciated it. The lines that they didn't forget kept them laughing all the time. In the first act, the first time Dan Mich got out of his character, lie took one look at it and burst out crying. Jet Van Stone as the leading Indy afforded the gaping audience some excitement when she pasted G rnlon Bowen for taking her position in the center of the stage. Many laughable instances of line forgetting were evident; especially in the cases of Adelaide Konev, Gus Morrison and Frances Berger. These, however, the puerile cast passed off jokingly and later had a merry old time seeing who could get the most cues wrong. Elmer t’eder won with 1t miscues. At the end of the first act Miss G. A. Williams was carried out in a straight-jacket, and after the second Major W. S. McWade threw a fit. A pathetic little instance was shown by A1 Allard, stage manager, who cried himself to sleep because they wouldn’t let him shoot the leading man. Ginger Brown, the deaf and dumb lady, didn’t forget her lines because she didn’t have any, hut you should have seen what she called Ed. Murnane in deaf and dumb language. It was thought for a while that Mrs. II. I.. Whittaker, the coach, would be harmed; hut finally several stage hands succeeded in smuggling her out of the auditorium disguised as a worn-out spectator. A NIGHT AT AN INN” 'fins tender little skit was successfully emitted at an assembly, either the last part of May or the first part of June, by the Wranglers. After the hair-graving experience, Principal K. T. Hargreaves swore that there would be no more assemblies in the future. It was quite a play, though; even John Marshall, the well known dramatic critic said it was pretty ding good, by heek.” Although there was only one act, the east made the worst of it and dragged it out to give the students their money’s worth (admission free). Haekctt was Hott-Stoughy, the English taffy. Being the taffy, lie was quite stuck up (in the play, of course). Anderson, Baldwin and Jones got off the stage unharmed. The rest of the east wasn’t half bad. THE MIKADO The thing ran two acts by the tacit consent of the audience, who had left at the end of the first. When questioned by the jKiIiee, S. II. Morse, who wore the costume of Nanki Poo, said. ”1 done my best to give the public something better anil finer; and, I am proud to say, hcv did it. But, howsomever that may he, the Costume company also dun a lot for it. They’ve been up to school seven times for money already.” Frantically endeavoring to find the cause of the trouble (he knew something was wrong but there was no mirror handy), Mr. Morse changed the set of leading ladies the second night, hut it didn’t do much good. During the intermission Kenneth Ferguson and Neil Mannerud were busy telling stories in the hall and forgot to go on. However. as it was an important scene, they were hardly missed. It taught them a lesson though, and they wouldn’t leave the center of the stage for the rest of the show. They even wanted to sleep there all night. Mattie Peterson made a hit in her part: she was hit before and behind. ORGANIZATIONS YOU TELL EM CLUB Eredibut Auribua THE You Tell ’Em Club enjoyed a very telling year. Several meetings were held at school and private homes, which did not remain private long after the meeting. When the collective meetings were impossible, the telephone was used. To this medium were attributed several mistakes in punctuation or something in the telling of the news, which got several of the members of the society in had. Many new members were allowed to come into the Club and several more couldn’t be kept out, because their qualifications were so great ns tc necessitate an immediate acceptance or running the risk of embarrassing exposes of prominent You Tell Vms.

The members are so strong for Irish products that they use O’Cedar mops, wear O'Sullivan heels, eat green cheese and patronize Finkclstein and Ruben shows. In a recent letter F.x-prcsident De Valera of the Irish Free State complimented them on their vicious spirit. Among the most outstanding occurrences of tlie year was the great Royal Tailoring company riot, when the club as a whole mobbed the place because the tailor neglected to put a brick size hip pocket in Paddy Cavanaugh's 1922 suit.

[183] £S2==- Hot from the JV ireless TRY THESE AT THE LEAMINGTON 1. If punch is served, don't allow the ladies to crowd you away from the bowl. 2. In making an approach on the liquid, knock down everybody who gets in your way. He'll know better next time. 3. If by mistake a lady huppens to get within reaching distance of those serving, try to spill a glass or two down her neck. She'll know better next time. 4. If you want to dance with a certain girl, teli your partner to go over and sit down; advance upon the object of your attention; push her partner In the face, and grab her solidly. No introduction will be necessary after this. 5. If you don’t like the orchestra, grumble about it all evening. It will make the evening go much faster. 6. If the floor is crowded, try to moke the l est speed you can. Thirty-five per is the latest standard. 7. Do all the fancy steps you know. If you think of some new ones, now is the time to try them. It is good form to work on other people’s feet when you do this. 8. If some bird wants to introduce you to his girl, moke him bring her over to where you are standing. 9. After you have engaged a dance with her, tell her where she can find you when the dance starts. If she doesn't find you at the beginning of the music, bawl her out. 10. When the orchestra plays a tunc you know, either whistle or sing the chorus. Your partner has never heard it before. 11. Don’t forget to take a couple of packages of chewing gum with you. Snap it merrily in time to the music. When the flavor has evaporated, toss the cud gently into the midst of the activity. This tends to improve the floor, and those dancing will appreciate your efforts. 12. When at Childs’ afterward, order what you want yourself, but always order buttered toast for your lady friend; for it costs only ten cents and is very healthful. If she doesn't like it, cat it yourself. This will teach her a lesson. 13. When at a private dance, Ik sure to thank your hostess effusively. Mosey over boredly, nudge her in the ribs, slap iicr on the back soundly, and say affably, “Some rassle, kid.’’ CLUB FEET Gamma Phi is right there. Pheasant Club’s not back— Pearl pins, gold pins.

She carries a powder puff in one hand and a looking glass in the other. She is deathly afraid of nice boys and runs in her stocking (probably of the latter because they have so far to run to).

Not usually though. Verily he is the most important being in school. FUNNY FACTS ABOUT FUNNY PEOPLE We have it upon the highest authority, Weston Lang, that the following inside facts ferreted out from the hobbies of the greats and graters by the indomitable Wofford, who spent some of his most valueless efforts and several of his balmiest days collecting this most useless data, are true. 1. It is probably not very well known, that R. T. Hargreaves, himself, wears President suspenders under his vest. The purpose of this idiosyncrasy is apparently very obscure. 2. C. W. Jarvis is in the habit, he tells us, of eating at least three square meals a day as he inimitably puts it in his own cute way, “one for each quarter in the school year.” 3. Miss Ida Proliett is very superstitious. She firmly believes that to walk under a shower of falling bricks is very unlucky. 1. Mrs. J. D. O'Brien always and invariably shells a soft lioilcd egg before jierus-ing it. She says, It is just a whim with me, but I can’t get over the feeling that it improves the flavor.” 5. The A. R.” initials in the middle of Marie Lynch’s name, stand for “Athannsia Rita.” This is not a geography lesson. fi. W. W. Mitchell always imbeds his peas in his mashed potatoes. He insists that this makes them much easier to eat, for they don’t roll off his knife quite so easily. He admits, of course, that he is out of luck when jiotato chips arc served. 7. J. C. Henderson's hobby is collecting hand painted china. He has several rare specimens of this which he picked up at a small fortune (quite small) from the late millionaire, F. W. Woolworth. Mr. Henderson did not meet the old gentleman personally, but the business wns conducted through the late financier’s city representatives. Mr. Henderson has also specimens in his own handwriting, from which he affirms, jokingly, of course, he will not part for less than four bits and a bottle of Siin-nelialiu Pule to boot. • Me fatal Iwnuty is me life long coisc.— l)e Fore at Moore.

To my mind,” said Mr. Tannenholz, the great thing about winning was not only the speed shown b me but also the wonderful endurance of the typewriting machine that will stand up to work as my L. C. Smith docs after eight years of constant pounding. My estimate is that it has ground out approximately 300.000 pages of testimony and solid matter in that time, averaging 225 words to the page or 67,500.000 words—and the only repair necessary on the machine in all that time was when a messenger boy dropped and broke the right hand carriage return lever, necessitating replacement.” Let us show you the Silent Smith.” A phone call or request for catalog will place you under no obligation.
