SCHADEGG Adviser HAL SESSIONS Business Manager CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL âąci'r7 ; flU 5 k FOREWORD The theme of the 1940 Ccntralian is âStudent Color. The word color is not only a term which we associate with an artist and his work but is a word that can be connected with the student and his activities as well. There is probably no other time in a personâs life when his hours arc so pleasantly filled with activities and socials as the three years spent in high school. These activities help turn the student away from the grey atmosphere of the every day grind by adding a dash of color to bring about a brighter outlook. It has been the purpose of the 1940 Ccntralian to record the colorful aspects of our high school days. The art staff has worked to bring you lively and artistic division pages and end sheets. The literary staff has cooperated with photographers, engravers, and printers to give you a cameraâs eye view of the clubs, sports and activities that will remind you of the good times you had while attending Central. So with these thoughts in mind we hoj c you will enjoy the Centralian as a colorful yearbook worthy of the sixty-one years of Centralâs colorful history. DEDICATION p r k A spirit of service and love was the motivating force in the life of Mrs. Joseph Markley, nee Alice Meyer. There was a strength of character beneath her quiet, unassuming manner that was an inspiration to all who knew her. Such a force cannot l c lost, but will live on in the lives of the students of Central. I tc in the fall of 1939, the White (late opened to admit a friend we had all learned to love and esteem. She went swiftlyâtoo swiftly for the short years she had dwelt among us. She went silently as the beautiful leaves of autumn drifted down, gladly knowing that her earthly ledger was well balanced. She was prepared lo meet the final summons. Central will long miss her familiar figure at football games, and will long remember the gentle and modest encouragement she bestowed upon our teams. Hut Central will also remember that she wentâtriumphant. Few, if any, in Central High School, can claim a more universal popularity than Joseph Markley. A man of straightforward sincerity and all-around goodness. he has endeared himself to all who know him. For seventeen years coach of Central's football squad, he is both honored and respected by the ln ys on the teams. More than fust a coach, more than any mere teacherââJoe, in a personal way. is a friend of âhis boys ; he turns the hard grind and long routine of training into pleasure. It is his understanding spirit that carries the team through the season with its eyes fixes! on something more than mere success. The confident spirit of the Red and Blue that has carried Central to victory in the past can justly Ik attributed to ( ach Markley. It is for these qualities of resolution, good nature, and inspiring friendliness that we esteem and salute him. e WINTER S CRISPNESS SUMMER'S WARMTH TOUCHED by THP purity of e snow K ,|N| NV V CONTENTS Faculty Seniors Clubs Athletics Cand muiUUvU aiunlUUUuUhnnUWWiiT ilili SUPERINTENDENT C.

Has Central taught you the necessity of facing life squarely, and thinking your problems through clearly? We sincerely hope so, and wish for you useful, happy lives. Anna Belle Thomas 12 MR. ROHDE STUDENTS CONSULT THE COUNSELORS MISS BELL The counseling office at Central is a coordinating center for all those activities which have to do with the | crsonal and individual development of students. It is a service station to assist, either directly or indi rcctly, every student, to guide himself in the best jx s-sihlc way and to make the best possible use of his abilities. The services carried on arc variedâincluding everything from helping new students to find their way around the building, to working on a plan for changing the curriculum of the school. Within Central, the counselors work with the entire school personnelâ students, advisers, teachers, office force, ami the administrative officers. The counselors help to plan courses of study by furnishing information about the work offered at Central, college entrance requirements, choice of colleges, special schools for special training, vocational training, and work opportunities. This may include careful interpretation of a studentâs record, his abilities, his ambitions, and the parents' attitude and desires. âHiis often involves personal interviews with students, teachers, and parents. The counselorsâ office coojierates with the visiting teacher in assigning, su-jxrrvising, and keeping time for the jobs under N. V. A. and State Aid. by means of which pupils earn part of their expenses in school and get work experience. This service took care of over two hundred pupils this year, with a monthly payroll of $600. Scholarships for certain pupils of ability arc also cared for through this office. Miss Hell and Mr. Rohde arrange occupational conferences addressed by speakers in the more common lines of work. Some of these occupations arc medicine, law, nursing, aviation, commercial art, the domestic sciences, engineering, and the trades. A cordial relationship is maintained by Central's â202 with the junior high schools and other senior high schools, the Minnesota Kmployment Service, graduates, and pupils who have dropped out of school. It is also the job of the counseling office to prepare a school report for the employment service files, furnish recommendations and references for applicants, supply information about follow-up studies, and interview individuals. Whenever there is some question as to the correct credits for graduation, the matter is often referred to the counseling office. Assistance in solving the personal problems of students is a well-known part of the counselorâs work. This service may result in conferring with advisers, parents, teachers, and pupils regarding their failures, attendance, and relationships with other people. Program adjustments, work excuses, placement on jobs, and recommendations for jobs arc also taken care of by the counseling office. In general, the purpose of this important body is to achieve a constantly better school for Central students. 13 Mm Agnes Carey Commercial Miss daily Chamberlin Englith Miss Amy Cheney Commercul Mr. Robert Classon Social Science Mi  F.stcllc Conway Language Mr. Thomas Cunningham Mi Dorothy Daniel f Mrs. Alice Drechslcr Miss Elsie Edlund Iruluttrial ilume Economic!

Many social events were scheduled by the class and efficiently carried through to success. Among these were the Homecoming Dance held in the evening in the school gym and celebrating Centralâs victory over Washburn: a program on Class Day including an all-male follies, a dance orchestra, piano numbers, and novelty dances and acts; ami late in December, 1939, the recent Broadway hit âStage Door was given as the class play. In addition to this the class left a small sum of money to be used for a class memorial. There were eight special committees which cooperated with the four officers: Douglas Berguson, President; Marjorie Dahl. Vice-President; Lorraine Bishop, Secretary: and William Kurzeka, Treasurer.

On January 26, commencement eve. the cabinet under the direction of the three advisers.

One day out of the week was tie-voted to special conferences about colleges, vocations, civil service, business, and the trades. The cabinet also planned a combination dance and party near the middle of the semester. I-ate in May the class play, A Day in the Sun, was presented. The members of the class had a successful year with the aid of the class advisers. Miss Reed. Miss Scott, Miss I obdcll, and Mr. Classon.

CLASSMATES ROBERT LANDREWS GERALD BRADY SANFORD CADWELL ROBERT DOW HARALD FRICK WILLARD GREEN JOHN GROGAN NOT PICTURED WALTER HULL RICHARD KALSCHEUR MARY KATCHES ROGER SCHURKE JAMES WHITFIELD DONALD WILSON IN MEMORIAM CAROLYN PARMETER Wiirn Carolyn Parmetek died unexpectedly late in February, 1940, her death saddened not only the members of her class hut all those who knew her. The June Class will long mourn the loss of Carolyn. She was an active Centralitc being member of both the Girl Reserves and the Commercial Club and was one of the nominees for vice-president of her class in the A senior elections. This activeness did not dim the light of her other characteristics, however. Being a very studious girl Carolyn possessed those characteristics which arc so necessary to successâability, initiative, thoroughness, neatness, and that final necessity, kindness. She was to have been a surgeon could she have earned enough to put herself through college. She suddenly contracted bronchial pneumonia and on February 20 quietly slipped into the âGreat Beyond. Interment was at I ikcwood Cemetery on February 22. 41 JUNE CLASSMATES ALICE ADDINGTONââLive, laugh, and be merry.â National Honor Society, G.A.A., Commercial Club, Choir. . . .

Staff appointments were completed by October 4. Despite the unhallowed machinations of the Centralian âoffice ghost, staff members succeeded in choosing Student Color as the 1940 theme. Attending the annual conference of the National Scholastic Press Association in Chicago, November 9 to II, was the privilege of Peter Holm, editor, and Hal Sessions, Business Manager. After special trips to the various plants, the staff selected Xintsmaster Studios as its photographer, the Bureau of Engraving as engraver, anil the Augsburg Publishing House as printer. Official pictures of Central's clubs were taken on November 21 and 22, and on March 14 anil 15. Soliciting of subscriptions on December 5 was followed by a cleanup campaign on March 6. The remaining time left to the staff was well spent in planning the arrangement of the final l ook, which was distributed the last week of May.

With its large staff of reporters who have weekly assignments the News covers all the important events, and truly fulfils its motto quoted above. The paper was printed on Tuesdays. At that time the editor-in-chief along with two or three other students went to the printers to proofread the copy.

At the District Tournament, Central won two debates by defeating both North and University High. The squad was coached by Miss Thorvilson who was a member of the debate team at the University of Minnesota while studying there. CURRENT AFFAIRS Became of the limited time in history clashes for the discussion of current problems, pupils founded the Current Affairs Club under the supervision of Mr. Classon. One Thursday afternoon every two weeks was devoted to discussing any interesting problem. At each meeting an outside speaker acted as leader. After he had given his point of view on the chosen subject, all the club members participated in a general discussion. Officers were John I .arson, president; Betty Jane Riedell, secretary and treasurer; and Warren Brcckcnridgc, vice-president. Top ro : R. Mendel. S Holler. L. Motile . C. MeOrih). E. Herd man. F.

Sim mom COUNCILS IN The senior student council met regularly every Wednesday to carry out its aim of forwarding the idea of student participation in the government of the school. At these meetings, the council members, together with Miss ITiomas, discussed problems of the school and their possible solution. The discussions were led by Harry Bitunan and James Thompson who were the chairmen elected by the fall and spring councils respectively. The membership of the council included the four âA senior officers; two âBâ senior representatives during the fall term, and four âBâ senior representatives for the spring semester; the editor-in-chief of the Quest in the fall, and the editor-in-chief of the News during the spring semester; and the presidents of the Ili-Y Club, Girls Club, âCâ Club, Girl Reserves, the G. A. A. Board, the Glee Club, and in the fall the president of the C. G. C., a club which was disbanded at the end of the fall semester. The work of the Student Council was done entirely through committees which consisted of two council members and a faculty adviser. The various committees were as follows: Executive, Assembly, Library, C. C. C.. Lunchroom, Courtesy, Locker, and I Iall Monitors. Sponsored by the Senior Student Council, noon dancing was conducted Ixith semesters because of the improvement in the school lunch room. To help with the expense connected with getting music for the dancing, the Senior Council as well as the Junior Council sold red and blue pencils. - 4 c C- ©â  c- C- p- p- e- ©â c- 70 GOVERNMENT AT CENTRAL REPRESENT SENIORS AND HOME ROOMS PUTTING DEMOCRACY IN ACTION A new form of STUDENT participation in school government, the Junior Student Council, was organized last fall. Kach advisory group elected one student as its representative in the council. This council formed a link between the Senior Student Council and the advisories, enabling these two groups to work together on all school projects. The members took suggestions from the advisory groups to the Senior Council and reported hack to their rooms the progress made at each meeting. The chairman of the Senior Council presided over the meetings and presented new ideas. Under tiie leadership of Harry Bittman, fall chairman, the Junior Council helped with the noon dancing project by selling red and blue pencils. Under the spring chairman, James Thompson, the Junior Council cooperated in selling the red and blue pencils left over from the fall term, and noon dancing again became a part of the school program. Miss Thomas was the faculty adviser who supervised and hel|)ed the council. Other school projects successfully taken up through the Junior Student Council were Clean Lunchroomâ and School Courtesyâ campaigns. TOP PICTUREâTop row P. Holm, 11. Ilmnun, t . Pettrara. I.

The room which had the highest percentage of hankers was declared the weekly winner, and other advisories were announced in order of their placement. Kach room had cashiers who conducted all hanking business every Tuesday morning from 8:25 to 8:40. Mrs. Pinkâs advisory. Room 310, with Martha Nelson and Jean Meservey as cashiers, ranked in first place on the school yearâs hanking record. Standing second in rank was Mr. Zittlcman's room, 320, with Betty Jane Ricdell as cashier. Third place went to Mr. Cunningham's room, 109, with Lloyd Anderson as cashier. This ranking was determined on the basis of those rooms having the highest number of first [daces on the weekly hanking records. In the early part of the fall term, Mrs. Pinkâs group gained the advantage by working up their banking average while the other groups devoted their time to other things. Toward the end of the term Mr. Zittlcmanâs room and Mr. Cunningham's room began to climb to the top. with the result that during the last few weeks these three rooms alternated in first place. Other rooms which were near the top of banking record for the year were as follows: Room No. Adviser Cashier Room 311 Mr. SchadegK Arnold Slettrn Room 20 Mis Trufani Ruth Burn Room 401 Min Sctlcrbcrg [can Lull Room 212 Mr. Mitchell Joan Dystc Room 208 Mr. Huroh Lu Rctta Anderson Room 305 Mi  Power Delorc Rushton Room 412B Mi  Carey Helen Carl c- c- G- 72 77777777T77T777T77777'7777V7V77Y7Vt 1 V X UU Iinuun Top niw.

BANKING An exact record of the number of Central's depositors and the total amount of deposits has been kept for several years and this school year has proved the best in the last four years. The banking record for these years was as follows: School year Number 4 AtrtMfe Weekly Total Amount Drpoiiu Depot it« Banked 1936-37 7,015 206 5,892.09 1937-38 8.307 327 6.697.80 1938-39 6,512 186 4.821.49 âą1939-40 7,198 267 5.517.60 This 1939-40 record goes only through April 2. The record day for banking was February 5, when 344 students deposited a nickel or more. The students made their deposits through the cashiers who placed the money and deposit slips in a regu- lar envelope for such. The cashiers then filled in the blanks of these envelopes stating the room number, number of depositors, amount deposited, number of students present, and percentage of depositors. The cashiers then took the envelopes to the room of Mr. Classon, who had charge of the banking. There the money was taken by Mac Peterson, the official secretary of the hank directors, and she accurately recorded the amount of each room's deposits. The money was then sent to the Farmers Mechanics Bank, school savings department. The hoard of directors of hanking consisted of six members, each one having charge of a grade. Supervised by these directors graphs were made of the weekly records of each grade. The directors also did anything advisable to promote hanking. 73 Standing, batk towi J. Zumbcr e. |. Ifctnn.

The projectionists were organized as a club in April for ihc purpose of providing operators to run the projection machines for the teachers who wished to show educational films to their classes. Room 400 was equipped for a visual education room. There were twelve members of the club, anti two were available each period of the day. Once a week the boys met with Mr. Strand, the faculty adviser. At these meetings the boys learned the technique of operating the projection machines and the radio and recording machines. No one except members of the club was allowed to run the machines, and before a member could run one, he was required to take a test, either oral or written. The officers of the club were Warren Brcckenridgc, president; and Harold Steen, vice-president. Centralâs broadcasters with the other high schools of the city cooperated with âColumbiaâs American School of the Air by broadcasting discussions of the present day problems. Before a broadcast was attempted, the subject was thoroughly discussed in Mr. Classonâs United States history classes, ami those who seemed especially interested were chosen by Mr. Clas-son to broadcast. The students appointed then became better acquainted with the topic in order to broadcast extemporaneously. Central conducted a discussion on each of the following topics: Social Security, Labor and Industry, and the Two-Party System. During the half hour preceding the student broadcast they listened in the WCCO studio to a skit on the topic broadcast from New York. They then conducted their discussion keeping in mind the ideas emphasized in the skit. PROJECTIONISTS . . . RADIO BROADCASTING A. PniiKâlin. I Hffdman, R. Itcrion, C. DkIomd, D. Siorroo, Mr CUuon, W.

To be a member of the Board a student had to be a junior or senior and have at least a C average. Two monitors, Board members, reported during each of the first five periods every day. As students came into the library their yellow âLibrary Passes were collected in exchange for white library attendance slips which were later taken by the monitors to study halls in which students would report if they were not in the library. Mrs. Brice, the chief librarian, has charge of the monitors who help her maintain discipline. At the meetings of the board, library problems were discussed; anti during the fall semester Joyce Donahue and I ois Berdahl brought suggestions for improvement of the library, which they had obtained from the Student Council; and in the spring, Clara Lou Breckhcimer and Pauline Bratt did the same. Tiie stage crew was responsible for many successful performances on the Central stage through their effective craftsmanship. They changed the sets, directed the lighting and operated the amplifying system. The eight boys on the crew were assigned to the stage every day during the sixth period, and under the direction of Mr. Hepp they studied lighting effects and stage settings. Kenneth Johnson was the stage manager and Robert Ewing was electrician. The stage carpenter was Setmer Arlandson. with Arthur Schultz, projectionist. The four stage hands included Jim Brugger, Clarence Duvick, William Hoff, and Bob Legacy who helped with the moving of the stage properties and other stage work. STAGE CREWS Standing: A. Sdwiu . C.

CABINET AND MONITORS The c. c. c. cabinet, as a separate organization, was dissolved this year and the work of this cabinet was taken over by a committee of the Senior Student Council. The motto of the C. C. C. was âCourtesy, Consideration, and Cleanliness. With Mr. Krueger as the faculty adviser, the cabinet sponsored a âB senior party, which was held on November 10. and consisted of a program, dancing, and refreshments. The officers were Anna Johansson, chairman, and Merlyn Naw-rocki, secretary. Anna presided at all the meetings where such subjects as lunchroom cleanliness, hall conditions, and class conduct were discussed. In spite of the dissolution of the cabinet, the C. C. C. lunchroom monitors were active during the entire year. cA 1 e-J cJ tâ e â 76 TYTTTTT 5 S It was the DUTY of the rest room monitors to assist the girls who were ill and unable to remain in class. The monitors were dependable girls appointed by Miss Zicincr and Mrs. Mansfield in the fall and Mrs. Ericson and Mrs. Mansfield in the spring term. Their work has meant much to humanize our school. These monitors were stationed at all the doors of the lunchroom to see that no one left the room carrying food. Also under Mr. Krueger were monitors who saw to it that the students remained on the first floor during the three lunch periods until three minutes before the bell when the students were allowed to go to their lockers.

It was the duty of these monitors, who were on duty at one of the four posts on every floor, during one hour each day, to check all passes to sec if they had correct date and time, were written in ink or colored pencil, and were signed by a faculty member. Norman Gold, a representative of the Junior Student Council, and three members of the Senior Student Council, Jack Butler. Audrey Butts, and James Randall, met with the hall monitors on the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month before school. On the alternating Tuesday mornings the directors and officers met for consultation. At these meetings rules of conduct for the hall monitors were formulated and they discussed how they could best âsell the idea of 78 better hall courtesy to the student body. During the fall semester, which was the first term the present system of hall monitors was used, the hall monitors had no formal organization, but in the spring Robert Baker was elected chairman; Priscilla Villas, vice-chairman; and Thco Smart, secretary. Six floor representatives also chosen by the students included Mary La Valley, Don Sorenson, James Linne, Betty Jane Ricdcll. Roger Nelson, and Marianne Walbom. It was their duty to have charge of all 16 posts during one hour each day. All problems of the hour were reported to them and they, in turn, reported to the faculty advisers of the hall monitors who were Miss Powers, chairman; Miss Thorvilson, Mrs. Pink and Mrs. Smith. The hall monitors were chosen from a group of students recommended by the school faculty as reliable and honest students. - -âą -0m 0 âą - 0-' 0 0 e- 0â 0â âŹâą 0- ⏠-r-«-«-c-c-c-c-«-C 0' r C' c- Câ c- c- c- c- c 0 c- 0- 0 0 0 0 J 9 P P 9 9 -  ⹠Top row: N.

HALL MONITORS . . . SPRING GROUPS If a monitor way pound to be otherwise he was dismissed and some other student replaced him. The aims of the hall monitors were: to improve the hall conduct of all the pupils during school hours; to keep halls quiet for better study and recitations, to promote prompt attendance at classes, and to prevent students from skipping. In 1933 the Student Council felt that some special effort should he put forth to forward courtesy in and about the school. That year a committee from the Student Council published the book, The Thing To I)o. Since then the lxx k has been sold every year primarily to the sophomore class. In the August, 1939, Reader's Digest an article was published called, âManners Go To High School.â This article told about courtesy in the high schools of the country and explained about Centralâs The Thing To Do. Since then Central has received letters from every state in the union, in addition to letters from Australia, East Africa, New Zealand, Alaska, and Canada asking about The Thing To Do and requesting copies of the booklet. This year the work of forwarding courtesy in the school was taken on directly by a committee of the Senior Student Council. The fall committee who worked with Mrs. Pink included Marjorie Dahl, Doug Bcrguson, and Clara Lou Brcckheimcr. In the spring Bob Blcgcn and Arlene Williams from the Senior Council and Dick Bcrtclson from the Junior Council served on the courtesy committee. The work of the committee was to make the entire school more conscious of courtesy. Exhibits were placed in the main Hoor show cases and in the school library helping to interest students in courtesy. The work on courtesy was done entirely by the students. The hall monitors helped greatly in promoting school courtesy by maintaining good conduct in the halls. 79 Librarian. S. Fl i . . . . Drum Iâ. Hcroumi. K. Young. E- Hagen. I . Knuiion. J.

THE BAND Under the direction of Mr. Charles Wohlfortl, Centralâs band advanced by rapid stages from a small membership to an organization of 110 members. The band met the first period every day and players who were members of the organization during the year received one credit. Proficiency on a band instrument was the qualification for membership. Among the bandâs activities for the past year were making letter formations at home football games, playing for one basketball game at the municipal auditorium, offering the annual spring band concert, supplying the patriotic music for Lincolnâs Day and Decoration Day assemblies, and having each graduat- ing member direct the band in one musical number. During the intermission between halves at each home football game, the band formed the letters, âCHS,â in front of Centralâs stands and then led the student body in the school song, Red and Blue.â Five students from the band participated in the Region Two National Music Competition Festival conducted in St. Paul in May. There were ten judges who rated the players as A, B, C, or D. according to the quality of their playing. Two drum majorettes, Dorothy Knutson and June Turnstrand, also competed in the contest. In the spring a second band was organized. The forty-five members of this band met daily sixth period with Mr. Wohlford for instructions. c- c- c- ©- v;'. v J The ckntkal high school orchestra has well demonstrated its ability during the past year. A school musical organization started in 1913 in old Central under the direction of Mr. Morse, and since then it has offered its services for the entertainment of the entire student body. The aim of the orchestra is the betterment of orchestral music. It is well equipped instrumental!)- to create a lasting interest in orchestral music. The full instrumentation includes many of the so-called rare instruments not ordinarily found. The six basses, four cellos, four violas, piccolo, oboe, slide trombone, tympani, and drums are owned by the music department of the school. âHie orchestra is always willing to perform for an ORCHESTRA assembly; it plays for baccalaureate and commencement exercises in January and June. When an opera is given, the orchestra is on hand to furnish excellent entertainment during the intermissions, as well as to accompany the musical numbers in the opera itself. The orchestra is a part of the school curriculum, and meets every day during the second period. Any student who has taken lessons on a musical instrument or has played in another orchestra is eligible. During the first part of the spring semester, the orchestra spent most of its time practicing the accompaniment for H. M. S. Pinafore, which was presented by the (lice Club on March 14 and IS.

THE GLEE CLUB â Central high school has long been known for its Glee Club ami director. Mr. Sydney H. Morse. Founded in 1913 by Mr. Morse, the organization has produced 45 ojxrras during its 27 years of existence. The club has aimed to bring to its members training in acting and singing, as soloists or in chorus work, as well as to provide fellowship and appreciation of musical productions. To qualify for membership, students must pass a voice test. At the fall election the % members chose as their leaders Harley Simmons, president; Helen Fisher, vice-president; Geraldine Blowers, secretary; and Russell Garrett, treasurer. Under these officers the club practiced with the choir in preparation for the Thanksgiving assembly at which the combined musical organizations presented the âThree fold Amen,â and God Bless America.â 82 H.M.S. PINAFORE On March 14 and 15 the Central High Glee Club presented Gilbert anti Sullivanâs opera, H. M. S. Pinafore, the forty-fifth successful opera directed by Mr. Morse while at Central High School. Leads were lames Whittier as First Lord of the Admiralty; James Hill as Captain Corcoran; Wayne Solie. Ralph Rack-straw; Robert Charlcbois, Dick Dcadcyc; Patricia Petri, Josephine; and Janet Peterson, Little Buttercup. These leads, together with the entire cast, worked on Saturdays as well as week days in making this production a success. Also contributing invaluable assistance to the success of the opera were the stage crew and the orchestra who worked with the Glee Club at each rehearsal. This yearâs production marked the fifth time that H. M. S. Pinafore has been given at Central since Mr. Morse became director of the Glee Club. - c- c- c-âą -c C J âŹ' «- C- âą- C- ⏠â «- C- «- c- c- e- «- c- c- «- c- C c- c- c- c- c- c 6 - 6- w + J A Top row: U. kiiKaul, O. ffjn «i, II.

Burl. THE GLEE CLUB A CAPPELLA CHOIR For the Christmas assembly the Glee Club and Choir sang selections from Handel's Oratorio âMessiahâ and also the popular Christmas carols. The tradition of the annual opera in the late fall was changed this year to allow for an early spring production. Practice on Gilbert and Sullivanâs âH. M. S. Pinafore began before the new year and the final production was presented on March 14 and 15. At that time Mr. Morse was given a gift by the club and made his traditional talk of good will and commendation for the cast. Other traditions of the Glee Club were its appearance at the two baccalaureate services and caroling in the halls at Christmas time. Harley Simmons and Helen Fisher were both reelected as president and vice-president respectively. The purpose of the a cappella choir, which was organized in the spring of 1938, is to promote studentsâ appreciation of better a cappella music, both standard and classical. Members of the choir, meeting daily during the first hour, must pass a voice test and must be able to read music easily. This year, the choir sang at the Thanksgiving assembly, at various meetings of the Parent-Teacher Association, and at the haccalaureatc exercises in January and June. The fall officers were the following: Harry Burli-son, president; Lloyd St rot. vice-president; Hazel Schneider, secretary; and Arthur Harness, treasurer. During the spring semester, Curtis Newman was president; Jack Holt, vice-president; Verna Mac Chase, secretary; and Arden Magnuson, treasurer. 83 Saluting each other as actors and actresses of the future arc the members of Mimes anil Mummers, Centralâs dramatic club. Led by Miss Grosz and Miss Setterberg, dramatic coaches, the club members have learned the rudiments of acting and stage technique. Membership in the club was limited to thirty and those admitted had to pass âtry-outsâ which consisted of some reading or recitation before the coach and try-out committee, maintaining a âCâ average, and being voted upon by the members of the club. The fall officers were Hetty Lou Wcstlund, president; Anna Johansson, vice-president; Arlene McWilliams, secretary; and Pete Holm, treasurer. During the fall semester the club sold red and blue caps and also blue âCentral pennants. The club presented a humorous skit at the Homecoming Assembly. During the spring semester a comedy, Make Room for Rodney, was presented at 3 special Mimes and Mummers assembly. In addition to developing dramatic talent the club aims to stimulate creative interests of students, to foster interest and appreciation for drama as one of the arts, and to give social opportunities for students. In the spring Pete Holm was the club president; Mary Alice La Bine, vice-president; Janice Swanson, secretary; and James Thompson, treasurer. Regular meetings were held twice a month c- on Thursdays. At these meetings talent programs were given and refreshments were usually served. Members of the club contributed to the programs and plays wcrc often given. Because of the limited number of club members, each student received more individual instruction and thus developed poise and became less self-conscious. Experienced âMimes members have â often played leads in college productions. MIMES AND MUMMERS Top rows K. lYtttMin, |. I muck. J. Randall. R. Barden, C . lohnton. W. Solie. J. Engqimt, K.

The aim of the club was to encourage dramatic talent and to develop sell expression in mem hers new to Central. In the fall under the leadership of Miss Gladys Chamberlain, short skits, stunts, and simple one act plays were given by the members of the club. In the spring more difficult one act plays were presented. Patricia Mourning was the club president for both the fall and spring semester with Betty Burdick as vice-president and secretary, and Forrest Donaldson as treasurer for the fall semester; F.ugcnc Martinson as vice-president and secretary, and Virginia Mahoney as treasurer for the spring semester. It is but a short step for members of the Footlights Club to enter Mimes and Mummers. The aim of the members of the Skylitc Club is to gain social and cultural understanding of art, and to render service to the school. To be admitted to this club, art students must have at least a âCâ average in their art courses: those who arc not taking art must submit three pieces of original art work to Miss Witter and Miss Turner, the club advisers. Tlic fall officers were Kenneth Peterson, president; Lorraine I loft, vice-president; Helen Amundson, secretary; and Ethel Holland, treasurer. In the spring lames Thompson was president; Marjorie Berg, vice-president; Gerry Peterson, secretary; and Marlowe Stavig, treasurer. The name Skylitc was chosen in J925 when the club was organized. Members look forward to the traditional trips to the art centers, and to sketching from models. FOOTUGHT'S CLUB SKYLITE CLUB Ji J J J Standing: R. Swartwood. P. Huette. R. Harrtren. F. Donalduxi. 0.

Kaufman. This play was presented December 15 to a large and appreciative audience. Under the direction of Miss Ruth Setterberg, the play centered around a cast of ambitious young girls who sought fame and glory on the New York stage. The feminine leads were taken by Lorraine Nathc as Terry Randall and Anna Johnasson as Jean Maitland, while Don Woznak as David Kingsley anti Russ Garrett as Keith Burgess took the masculine leads. Other important parts were taken by Betty Morelius as Judith Canfield; Marjorie Dahl as Bernice Nic-meycr, Virginia Hanson as Kay Hamilton, and Florence Geisert as Mrs. Orcuit. The play Stage Door has been very popular with high school and college students the last few years, since it was made famous by Katherine Hepburn on the screen, and by Margaret Sullivan on the stage. Lorraine Nathe did a fine interpretation of Terry Randall together with the natural, s|X)iitancous acting of Russ (iarrett. Anna Johansson showed vivacious charm, and Don Woznak gave an intelligent and dignified performance as Mr. Kingsley. Humor was added to the play by Florence Geisert in the character role of Mrs. Orcutt and by Marjorie Dahl in her fine interpretation of Bernice Nicmeycr's naivete. Virginia Hanson gave depth and tenseness to the play, while Betty Morelius showed outstanding poise and excellent character work. Action picture above thowt j croup âą ( the Stage Door girlt at Mrt.

A DAY IN THE SUN, May 24, 1940 Upholding the tradition of a lively spring play, the June class presented the three-act comedy. âA Day in the Sun on May 24. Directed by Miss I-orinc Grosz, tin: play written by Edward Sammis anti Ernest 1 leyn had especial interest for Central students liecausc Mr. Sammis is a Central alumnus. The plot centered around honest Charlie Sumner, who defended an innocent man accused of murder. The lawyers built him up as the greatest alibi witness in legal historyâ the George Washington of the twentieth century. Not only did he save Joe Bono's life, but in his own naive way caught the real murderer as well. In the role of Charlie, James Hill delighted the audience with his easy going manner, and proved himself a true comedian. Mary Alice La Bine, as Gert Huhhcll. Charlieâs whining married sister; Orrinc Flatcn, his devoted fiancee; Jeanne Sevareid, another sister; and Phoebe Culver, the emotional Italian, Mrs. Bono, did especially well in the feminine parts. James Thompson, an exuberant, obstreperous Brickie, gave color to the play, as did Harley Simmons in the role of the jealous, treacherous brother-in-law, Ed I luhhcll. DuWaync Olson was convincing as the well-groomed Dick Blanchard; Roger Nelson as a shrewd ami domineering defense council, and Pete Holm as the droll judge were favorites with the audience. Hal Sessions and Delight Christianson, the pompous Crabshaws; Janet Toy, Mrs. Duffy, a typical neighborhood gossip; Winston Puttick, the suave Mr. Burroughs; Petra Nelson, the breezy reporter; and Bob Brcsslcr, the real criminal, were all well suited to their parts. a Top r.. K Mur.lfk âș. vainn.n.

Hakkr THE FRENCH CLUB âTout est poor le mieix dans lc mcillcur dcs mondcs dcs possiblesâ is the classical French way of expressing why many of Centralâs students recognized the value of studying the French language. At any rate, over seventy students were enrolled in the club this year. The French Club was organized in 1919 and was originally named âLc Foyer, meaning The 11 earth. Its purpose was to promote a greater interest in the French language, to stimulate the use of French in conversation, and to provide social activities for French students. Those who were taking or had taken French, or students who showed a special interest in the club were eligible for membership. Mrs. Drcchslcr and Miss Gay were advisers of the club, which met 88 on the third Tuesday of each month. Adair McDonald was president, and Maricarol Hanson, treasurer, for the entire year. 1 lerbert Julicn was vice-president, and Wendell Peterson, secretary, during the fall semester while Helen Tollefson was vice-president, and Ruth Price was secretary, in the spring. Regular club meetings consisted of the discussion of business, groupsinging of French songs, the celebration of French festivals, musical numbers, readings, games, and plays. During the fall semester, a corrcs| ondcncc was started between members of the French club and students in other countries. The annual Christmas party was conducted in December. f- 9â 9 9' o- 9' 9 âą -9 9â 9 - âą - 9â 9- 9 ' âą - 9â 9' C- c- «- 9â 9 9â 9 C- 9 9 9 9 9 9 9-9 fr «- Top fitw: l . Dulclx.lin. f. I.inne.

Scripta legunt, partes in spectaculis agunt. cos qui peregrinantur audiunt, carmina I-aiina canunt. Hoc anno, apud alias res, castra Romara ct domuin Romanam acdificavcrunt.â Fall officers were Robert Blegcn, president; Hal Sessions, vice-president; Ma-dclla Hagerthy, secretary; Ruth Frank, treasurer. At meetings, several of the 101 members of the club gave travel talks, conducted an archaeology program, and presented a lantern-slide lecture on Rook. At the annual Christmas party, club members sacrificed a âlambâ (stuffed with popcorn) in the manner of the Saturnalia, an ancient Roman festival. The spring election of officers resulted in the following choices being made: Sidney Bolter, president; Steve Tanner, vice-president; Marguerite Bowers, secretary; Curtis Hubbard, treasurer. During the year, models of l oth a Roman camp and a Roman house were constructed. In the twenty-four yearsâ history of the Latin Club, it has been a tradition to raise funds each term for some worthy purpose. This year the Roman house and camp, six statuettes of mythological characters, and thirty Latin song hooks were purchased. Club advisers for the year were Miss F.stcllc Conway and Miss Lila Liskey. 89 A German cli'b was organized at Central on March 29, 1940, under the leadership of Miss Liskcy and Mrs. Drechsicr. Officers were Dennis Willar, president; Shirley Peterson, vice-president; Roberta Mitchell, secretary; anti John Hartman, treasurer. The aim of the club was to interest the students in German life, literature and culture. Central may be proud of such an organization in this year of international hatreds. Every student who was taking Swedish or Norwegian, or had taken either language, was eligible for membership in the Scandinavian Club. The club met on the fourth Tuesday of each month with Mr. Er-dahl as adviser. Its programs included Scandinavian readings and songs or guest speakers. Officers chosen in September for the entire year were Anna Johansson, president; Dorothy George, vice-president; Alva Enga, secretary; and Wanda Reynolds, treasurer.

Shortly after the building of new Central the club was started for students interested in nature study. Regular meetings arc held on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month with Miss Elsie Edlund and Miss Evelyn Bruce as advisers. The programs of the club for this year included an illustrated talk on feeding and attracting winter birds by the curator of Theodore Wirth Park, a talk on knowing winter birds by Mildon D. Thompson of the Minneapolis Public Library, films on life in the dune area by Dr. Breckenridgc, a trip by bus to the Zoological department of the University of Minnesota, and films showing places of interest at Yellowstone Park. THE BOTANY CLUB At Christmas time the Botany Club conducted its annual holly sale. Members of the club were stationed at the school entrances and sold holly to the students 3$ they came into the building. In the latter part of May, on Ccntralian Day, the sale of pink and yellow roses was conducted in a similar manner. The club aims to create an interest in nature study and to promote good fellowship among the members by having a social hour at each meeting. In the fall the club was under the leadership of Bruce Mendel, president; Rosemary Ryan, secretary; and Dorothy Burke, treasurer. In the spring Harold Steen was president; Florence Schccl, vice-president; Maureen Clark, secretary; and Darrell King, treasurer. 91 Top row; Kjml.ill. H. Tyree, K. BoomIU, B. Murrliu . Udeen, V.

Any student who is taking at least one commercial subject and is an Aâ Junior or a Senior is eligible to become a member of the club. Meetings arc held on the first Wednesday of each month in room 400. When the club was first organized back in 1916, it was known as the âTypist Club. At that time it was organized to help typing students become better acquainted with each other and to furnish a means of entertainment and instruction. Thirty members belonged to the first club. When the present club was organized in 1924, all commercial students were eligible. In 1939 the club was reorganized to allow only 11 A, 12B. and 12A student members. The club has rapidly grown until now it is the largest club in Central, with 203 members in the fall semester and 268 in the spring. The work of advising the club is a process of rotation among the commercial teachers, of whom there arc now nine. The programs of the club consist of talks by experienced speakers from various fields in the business world and demonstrations of commercial interest. At one of the fall meetings, the guest speaker was Mr. Lyle I«anning. representative from the Minnesota School of Business who with his two assistants demonstrated the Stcnotypc, outlining its various advantages, and answering questions on its future in the field of business.

FISnn THE COMMERCIAL CLUB speaker at this same meeting was Miss Phyllis Haw-lish, secretary to the manager of WLB, the University of Minnesota radio station. At the spring meetings, guest speakers were Mr. S. C). Nest hill, secretary of the United States Civil Service Commission, who explained the complexities of this organization, the values of entering such a service, the requirements for entrance into the organization, and the numerous tests which must be passed in order to become a full-fledged member; and Mr. Ray Fisher of the Lutheran Brotherhood Life Insurance Company who discussed the values of life insurance and the problems it solves. At this meeting each student was given an eversharp pencil and a pamphlet containing facts and figures about insurance. In April the Commercial Club voted to appoint a service committee to recommend ways to spend the surplus club money on some public service which they deem worthy of support of this kind. Up until two years ago, it was traditional for the club to donate money to the Ida V. Probett scholarship fund, but this was abandoned. The Commercial Club has also donated money to the Red Cross, the Symphony Orchestra, and given baskets to needy families at Easter, 'Fhanksgiving, Christmas, and other holidays. In the last week of March, the club gave the first Sunlitc of the season. It was one of the largest ones ever sponsored at Central High School. The girlsâ gymnasium was filled to overflowing with the 300 students who attended to participate in the fun-making. Traditions of the Commercial Club include its party at the close of each semester.

Arising out of a dispute among the various Minneapolis schools as to which shorthand systemâCaton or Greggâwas the better, a contest was held in the fall of 1939. Two Central Commercial students, June lerney and Mary Jane Stark, tied with two South High students for first and second places respectively. The superior shorthand system was not proven according to interpretations of the test results. The Commercial Club cabinet consists of five committees besides the four officers. The spring committees arc Program Committee, Helen Zctzman, chairman. Mary Alice La Bine, Beverly Manning, Lu Rctta Anderson, and Fred Borlaug; Social Committee, Audrey Butts, chairman, Betty True, Enith Anderson, and Paula Flocrkcy; Membership Committee. Janice Swanson, chairman, Ruth Larson, Betty Oliphant, and Ingrid Johansson; Finance Committee, Merry Hoyt, chairman. Bob Pahl, and Betty Johnston; and the Refreshment Committee with Betty Morgan, chairman, Kenny Swanson, Doris Davis, and I-a Verne Lciningcr. The fall officers were Jack Little, president; I ois Kurtz, vice-president; Alma Dale Leonard, secretary; and Mary Alice La Bine, treasurer. Officers chosen for the spring semester were Du Wayne Olson, president; Helen Zctzman, vice-president; Dorothy Wallcntine, secretary; and Merry Hoyt, treasurer. The adviser for the fall semester was Miss Helen Zangcr, instructor of shorthand and transcription; and during the spring Miss Amy Cheney, office-practice teacher, was the sponsor. © «⹠âŹâ t- e e- ⏠⏠© e- «â © e t. © © © © © © © © © © © o o o o o C o d d d 94 A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A Top row: D.

The sport was first introduced at Central by Richard Jarvis, a former state high school champion. Centralâs organization thus enjoys the distinction of being the first fencing club in Minneapolis. Starting with an initial mcmltcrship of thirteen in 1936, there arc now over fifty members enrolled. Inexperienced fencers arc instructed by the more advanced students; thus they arc better able to compete both in club matches and in outside tournaments. Among the clubâs various activities arc the annual January social and farewell to seniors, periodic candy sales, and the management of the check-room during class playsâthe latter two being the clubâs means of raising funds with which to purchase new equipment. This year, Mr. Milton Schadcgg, club adviser, and members of the club held their annual outdoor party in May. Meml crs selected Carmen Smith as president, Knapp Field as vice-president, Hal Sessions as secretary, and Wanda Reynolds as treasurer for the fall term. In the spring, Wanda Reynolds held the presidency, Hal Sessions was vice-president, Petra Nelson was secretary, and Dorothy Blake was treasurer. Central has taken part in the fencing tournament with West High and with St. Paul, Central I ligh. Past presidents of the clubâ Richard Jarvis, Charles Maroosis, and Carmen Smith âhave all been state champions. This year Knapp Field won second place in the high school division for boys and Wanda Reynolds won first honors for girls. 95 Sum) mg: V. Puiikk. A. WillUmi. MU Ihoma .

The club motto was âGrowth, Education, and Service, and the aim of the members was to create a spirit of friendliness among all the girls at Central. The fall officers were Sally Bronson, president; Lorraine NTathe, vice-president; Louise Johnson, secretary; and Marjorie Johnson, treasurer. During the spring semester Pauline Bratt was president; Valorie Puttick, vice-president; Arlene Williams, secretary; and Mardclla Johnson, treasurer. The club met on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month and had as its advisers Miss Thomas and Miss Miller. At the regular meetings of the club, talent programs were given, skits were presented, or discussions were conducted by girls in the club. After the program refreshments were sersed and dancing usu- ally followed. The Big and Little Sister Party and the Tea for Mothers have become traditional semi-annual events. All the new sophomore girls were invited to e the Big and Little Sister Party and were given a tern- porary big sister. After a program in the auditorium, refreshments were served and then dancing was conducted in the girlsâ gym. The tea for the mothers p. was held on May 9. Instead of a program the girls had Mrs. Schuyler Woodhull give an illustrated lee-turc on her hobby which was collecting different va- 9 rictics of bells. In her collection were bells from almost all parts of the world. As the yearâs service project, the club had wooden benches made to provide a place for books in the girlsâ rest rooms. e 96 ÂŁ GULL RFSfJIVF C NRINFT _ Sanding: J. Swunua. Mia Icurtbctg UMm)% V.

Last fall for the first time a test was given to determine the qualifications of the candidates for club membership. Throughout the year there were many activities which were anticipated by the entire club. These included the two membership parties, recognition services, the fall and spring dances, the Mothersâ and Daughtersâ Banquet, and the Senior Farewell. The fall officers were Betty Lou Wcstlund, president; Geraldine Nelson, vice-president; Patty Kehoc, secretary; Anna lohansson, treasurer; and Arlene McWilliams, Inter-Club Council Representative.

The programs of the club included speakers, community singing, dancing, and refreshments. The blue triangleâs annual fall dance, the âTurkey Strut, was given on November 29, at the Y. W. C. A. Ping Pong and Shuffle Board were played by those who didn't dance. Those in charge of the arrangements for the dance were Violet Peterson, Arlene McWilliams, and Elaine Mclahn. The grenadiers, newest of the I li-Y chapters, was founded in February, 1940, with twelve charter members. Regular meetings were conducted weekly on Monday nights with Bcrnic Miars, '37, as adviser. Its name was suggested by Carl Kuhlman, because of the fidelity of the medieval grenadiers. 98 Abbas MJMiingi K. tkihlhrfg. H. John-ion. T. Ilifikr. P. I uFrrin«. t. L Kkkin. K. Kmntr, H. IGn.tn.

The word Abba signifies âKings of Royalty. At Thanksgiving time the boys of this chapter prepared and distributed baskets of food to needy families. The alpha omega chapter of the Central Hi-Y was organized in January, 1939, because a certain group of boys wanted to lie together in the same chapter. They secured as their chapter adviser, Bob Beckwith, a graduate of Central. Regular meetings of this group were conducted on Wednesday nights. The gopher chapter of the Central 1 li-Y was one of the original groups organized in 1933. They met on Monday nights and had as their advisers Fran Bush and Chuck Cline. Among the social activities of the club were a dance given at the Curtis Hotel and two wiener roasts. 99 fir Kiomas Standing: L. Brouiiuu, $. Ilynn. R. Hull. I). Dockcn. U. Carlton. R. PctcraOD, C.

A Magneton Hl-Y CHAPTERS Z The kiomas chapter of the Central Hi-Y was one of the newest Hi-Y groups. It consisted primarily of juniors who met every Tuesday night with their adviser, Dave Weaver. It was the aim of these boys to cooperate with the other chapters in all Hi-Y activities. The linx chapter of the Central I li-Y was known for its annual sale of red and blue gloves at the Home-coming football game. The gloves were dyed by the boys themselves, lack White as the club adviser met with the boys every Wednesday night. There were 17 active members in the chapter. Morpheus phi deltas, the official  â name of this chapter, means Death before Dishonor, and is the slogan of the club. The aim of the group is to develop friendships. The chap- ter was organized in I 35 and met every Tuesday night with their ad- viser, (Jcnc Cashman, class of 1938. 100 « it q t MtMtm Pioneers Sumlin« A. kilkmjn. O. N«|. k.b. | .  ktnn.

This fact required coaches and gym instructors of outstanding ability. The dean of our coaches. Weston Mitchell, has coached Red anti Blue teams for 26 years, specializing in basketball and football. The present head of the athletic department, Joe Marklcy, came to Central in 1924 and since then has coached seven football teams to city championships. Edmund Weber joined the staff in 1927 to coach tennis, swimming, and scrub football teams, and to supervise gymnasium. His players have repeatedly won high honors. The track coach, William âWild Bill Hawker, was considered one of the best pole vatilters in America while attending the University of M n-ncsoia. His trackmen have shown up well. Charles Addington, aside from teaching Civics and Commercial Law classes, supervised the golf team. Under the able direction of these men. Central has won many athletic honors and trophies have consistently been added to the shelves of our trophy room pictured at the right. 105 0 106 mm iiimmmmmmmnnmnmniunmj Standing: B. Samucbon, B.

C CLUB Every boy who hopes to make a name for himself in sports covets the âletter of his school. At Central the members of the âCâ Club arc the recognized athletes of our many teams, having won their letters by a qualifying vote of the coaches and by remaining eligible in at least three subjects at the end of the semester. This year the C Club was led by Lenny Swanson in the fall and Harold Saunders in the spring. The purpose of the club is to promote good will among the lx ys of the school and foster a spirit of sportsmanship in all athletic competitions. The traditions of the club have been the Bernard Bailey All Nations basketball tournament, a sunlitc, and their initiation. Top row: Grande. Shobcfg. Swanion.

Bottom: BjI-loom go up at the homecoming kickoffâa tradition at Central A rousing pkp assembly and decisive football victory over Washburn in the afternoon followed by a show and dance in the evening were the highlights of the 1939 homecoming on October 20. The pep assembly program consisting of drama, music, dancing, and singing was presented by students and alumni. The traditional âChineseâ song was sung by Harold Falk; Betty Morclius was crowned Queen by Duke Johnson, active alumnus and former Red and Blue football star; the Ladd sisters danced; and the Mimes and Mummers presented a skit to complete the features of the assembly. Other numbers included songs by Michael Culhane, January â38; an accordion solo by Harry Habata, June â34; several selections by Red Wolfeâs orchestra; and cheers led by the Staber twins and Bob Bunker, former cheerleader. Hundreds of Red and Blue balloons, some with âIct-mc-know-who-found-you notes, were released at the kickoff, only to be forgotten while all eyes watched the thrilling ninety yard run of Frank Goodwinâs. More color was added to the homecoming game by the appearance of the band which marched into some special formations in honor of the returning alumni. At the evening program Hal McIntyre acted ns master of ceremonies and led his band in a number of acts including accompanying vaudeville acts by alumni. A collegiate song and dance opened the vaudeville part of the program, followed by songs from the âModern Hill Billies.â George Dolon did a tap dance number, Three Steps in Rhythm ; and Doug Du Lac, June 36, put on some magic tricks. A toe dance by Jean Sombcrs. several selections on the banjo by Bruce Patterson, and two songs sung by the orchestra vocalist completed the program, after which the gymnasiums were the centers of interest. The homecoming dance was held in the girlsâ gym and the carnivalâfish pond, beano, anil all âwas arranged in the boysâ gym. A register for returning alumni was maintained by the Centralian and one hundred alumni signed. During the past year at our football games, pep assemblies, and various occasions the Central student body was efficiently led by our five cheerleaders. r c r c 108 SEASON'S SUMMARY ALL-CITY PLAYERS FINAL STANDINGS Team Won LOSt Tic Edison . 6 1 0 West . 6 1 0 Central . 5 2 0 Marshall . 5 2 0 Roosevelt . 3 4 0 South . 2 5 0 Washburn . 0 6 1 North . 0 6 1 Pet. .857 .857 .714 .714 .428 .285 .000 .000 With only four lettermen returning the Pioneers' outlook on the 1939 grid season was none too bright. The dope-sters, coaches, and players were not very optimistic in regard to Centralâs chances for a title position. There was much inclination to figure Central for the cellar. Evidently the dampness didnât agree with the Marklcymcn, for with a mere sniff of the cellar spot, the Red and Blue soared into the upper division and stayed there the remainder of the campaign. Concerning the boys, Coach Marklcy said, âThey were one of the youngest, lightest , and in- experienced teams Iâve coached at Cen- tral. These statistics show how the team functioned compared with its opponents.

The players attaining this distinction must have consistently played exceptional ball. This season three Central men were so honored. They were Captain Arnic Johnson at the pivot position, Frank Goodwin, left halfback, and Bud Hanson, fullback. Bob Sam-uclson received the Star-Journalâs sports award. CENTRAL 0 MARSHALL 6 Central met defeat at the hands of a heavy Marshall aggregation in its first game of the 1939 city prep race. Both teams displayed a definite lack of polish which is usually evident in opening contests. Considering this, Marshallâs victory could not be termed decisive, and future performances could not be judged by this exhibition. Shown at the top: An action view taken b Ruiscll Gicr et. . .

Award Winner Bob Samurhon 109 CENTRAL 13 ROOSEVELT 7 Central, in its third 1939 game, again pulled an upset in defeating the Roosevelt Teddies 13 to 7 on the Red and Blue field. (Pictures at theieft.) The Pioneers mixed speed, power, and deception to somewhat dazzle the opposing Teddies throughout the game. Sparked by the running of Hanson and Goodwin the Pioneers made repeated thrusts at the Maroon and Gold goal line and scored twice. The first counter resulted from a strong Red and Blue offensive early in the first period. Starting on the Maroonsâ 45 they drove hard and sent Goodwin into pay dirt from the 13 yard marker. A pass, Goodwin to Sanders, was completed for the extra point. The Teds evened the score in the third period when Red Williams received a punt and sprinted 60 yards down the sidelines across the double stripe, and then followed by splitting the uprights making it 7. In the final period the Marklcymen worked the ball down to the 6 where Bud Hanson went over on a spinner for the deciding score of the game. A desperate Teddie passing attack in the last fleeting moments failed to net results, and the Cen-tralitcs again left the field victors of the conquest. Editorâs note: Previous to game time about 30 Central boys signed the pledge, âWe, the undersigned, agree to get âHeines' if Central beats Roosevelt. Central icon! CENTRAL 28 WASHBURN 7 Scoring once in each period of play. Central virtually ran over the Washburn Millers in an eventful Pioneer Homecoming game which ended 28 to 7. Centralâs first score resulted Irom a beautiful 90 yard kick-off return by Frank Goodwin. A pass, Goodwin to Sanders, converted for the Red and Blue. Midway in the second quarter, a series of aggressive end runs and line plunges placctl the oval on the Blue and Orange three. Harry Bittman scored on an end run and then place-kicked the conversion. The third quarter saw another Pioneer touchdown march from their own 29 yard line, highlighted by three consecutive passes completed from Goodwin to Sanders. Bittman converted by placement. The final period found the Mark-leymcn kicking off to the Millers. On the following play, Bob Samuclson intercepted and went to the opponentsâ 23 yard line. Hanson, Goodwin, and a penalty brought the ball to the 1 yard stripe. From there Jack Shoberg charged over. Samuelson place-kicked the point. A pass interception plus three completed passes tallied for Washhurn in this period. The Red and Blue gridders outplayed Washburn in nearly every department, and gave one of their most well-rounded performances. (Pictures at the left.) %r A A A A A A A A A A A A A CENTRAL 8 EDISON 0 Central pulled the big surprise of the year in defeating the league-leading Tommies in an 8 to 0 victory. (Diagramed and pictured at the right.) Edison was so completely outshone in every department that the score hardly gives a clear story of the contest. The majority of play was in Edison territory and the Pioneers kept a consistent knocking at the Tommie touchdown door. Central scored their first two points on a blocked kick when Edison was forced to punt from behind its goal line. Bob Samuclson sneaked through, blocked the kick, and the ball bounced out of Inninds in the end zone for an automatic safety. Following the second half kick-off. Central, uninterrupted, marched 60 yards for that all important touchdown. Hanson carrying the ball over on a lateral from the eight yard line. Edison threatened but once, when they recovered a fumble on Centralâs 19 yard marker, but. due to the strength of the Pioneer line, they were unable to penetrate further. This game was undoubtedly the finest game Central, as a team, played throughout the season. Playing exceptional ball for the Pioneers were Captain Johnson, Bill Carey, Bill Kurzeka, and Harold Sanders in the line; in the back-field. Bud Hanson, Frank Goodwin, and Bob Samuclson turned in their finest performances. For Edison, the standouts were Putchcl, Rosar, and Wilson. CENTRAL 26 NORTH 6 Climaxing a brilliant season, the Red and Blue downed North in a very decisive contest. (Pictures at the right.) The Pioneers countered in every quarter to smother the Polars 26 to 6. Central's first score came as a result of a clever quarterback sneak by Bob Samuclson. A pass, Hanson to Sanders, converted for the Red and Blue. A second quarter passing attack proved effective resulting in touchdown number two. Started by a pass interception by Captain Johnson, the Pioneers scored on two pass plays. Goodwin to Parent and Hanson to Sanders. In the third quarter, a plunge by Earl Grande placed the ball on the Blue and White one yard line. From here the Pioneers scored in one play. The fourth quarter found Frank Goodwin intercepting a pass and scampering 76 yards down the sidelines for Centralâs fourth counter. Commencing with a pass interception on their own forty the Polars marched 60 yards across the double stripe for their lone touchdown of the game. As in all previous tilts Goodwin, Hanson, Samuclson, Arnic Johnson. Bill Kurzeka. Bill Carey and Sanders were standouts in the Red and Blue line-up. Earl Grande, right half, turned in a very good performance. Johnson. Cogswell, Lynch, and Rinchardt, starred for the Polars. BiocKed .ii xixlx CENTRAL Turman mini one iftlnM South View of Central gridiron THE SCRUB FOOTBALL TEAM CENTRAL 6 SOUTH 0 Recovering from their defeat by Marshall, the Central Red and Blue downed the Tigers in a closely contested battle. The Pioneers showed improvement over their season's opener and outplayed the Tigers in every department, A pass interception hy Captain Johnson midway in the game started a Pioneer march which resulted in the lone tally of the game. CENTRAL 7 WEST 26 The passing arm of Bob Bradford, West's ace passer, proved too much for the Red and Blue who howed to a 26 to 7 defeat. In spite of a slow, soggy field Central out-rushed West hy a very substantial margin: so it was quite evident that Westâs passes were the main factor in her victory. All of the Westernersâ tallies were due directly and indirectly to passes. Winning two and losing three. Coach Weberâs proteges marked finish to a fairly successful season. Although on the short end of the wins, the Scrubs gained invaluable experience which will enable them to fill first team vacancies next season. Throughout a scries of ten years the Scrubs have hung up a very enviable record in winning 44 out of 50 of their contests. Some of the more promising varsity material are Ralph Cotea, Charles Dcckas, Don Gunderson, Bob Hempstead, Bob Hunt, Jim Larsen, and Jack Moore. Fourteen red chenilc numerals were given out.

Although capturing hut third place in the city meet, the team was very much better than an average third-place team. It was just that competition was tougher this year than in previous years. Jim Dystc, back-stroker, is the best swimmer Iâve coached at Central. Me swam the 100 yard backstroke in 1:08, the fastest time turned in by a Central swimmer. Also the crawl relay team of Hob Delong, Jim Dystc, Milt Krueger, and Stan Humphrey turned in some fast time in swimming the 160 yards in 1:26.5.

Lyle Patterson instructs the club in the manly art of self defense. âAfter learning the fundamentals of boxing, the students have competitive matches with each other, said Mr. Patterson. âElimination tournaments decide the âchampsâ of each weight division. Under the direction of Earl Oberg, a wrestling club made its debut at Central this winter. About 35 enthusiastic boys turned out for practice. At the meetings Mr. Oberg taught the members new holds and methods of breaking them. The aim of the club is to develop a Pioneer wrestling team for inter-school competition. 113 Sanding: B. Uanton.

Three games were lost by five points or less and several other games were closer than the score indicated. The third quarter proved to be the jinx period for Centralâs cagers, as they were leading several times at the half only to fall hopelessly behind during this quarter. It was also in the third canto that opposing teams built up large margins which couldnât be surpassed by desperate Pioneer drives in the fourth quarter. The Mitchelltnen played a sterling floor game in every encounter but they couldnât seem to get hot in the shooting department. Midyear graduation took away the services of Lenny Swanson, forward and high point man, and Bob Samuclson. guard. Both were starters at the beginning of the season along with Frank Goodwin, standout guard: Wallace Ajax, guard; Harold Sanders, forward; and Clarence Turman, center. Jerry McDougall, promising sophomore forward; Earle Grande, who came into his own as forward; and Bill Elsham, a junior guard, filled the positions of the graduates and that of Turman who reached the age limit. Goodwin received a guard position on the all-city alternate team picked by the city papers and a first string position on the coachesâ all-city selection. Though the Central basketeers occupied the cellar position, it definitely was not a cellar team. The sports writers, previous to the commencement of scheduled play, had considered the Pioneers as a title threat; however, hard luck seemed to follow them throughout the season.

The Trainers led at the half 18 to 13 and continued to tally during the third period. North destroyed any Red and Blue championship hopes when they defeated Central 42 to 34. The Polars were ahead all the way with their hot shooting, stopping the only serious Pioneer threat in the last quarter. Against Edison. Central played a steady game. Their points kept mounting, but they couldnât catch the Tommies led by Tony Jaros. When the Mitchellmen left the floor at the half, the score was 24 to 11 in the Tommies' favor, and the final score found Edison triumphing 47 to 30. The Pioneers lost to a hot Marshall team 50 to 28 for their fourth straight setback. Frank Goodwin and Earl Grande starred for Central. Led by Goodwin, who tallied II points, the Red and Blue cagcrs gave South a battle for two periods before falling under an avalanche of Tiger points in the third quarter, 43 to 29. Central led West all the way, only to come out on the short end of a 44 to 39 score after a desperate Cowboy rally in the waning moments of the game. Against Roosevelt, Central again led at the half 12 to 10 after a shot by McDougall. Again the second half proved disastrous and the final gun found the Teddies ahead 27 to 23. In the last game of the year, the Pioneer cage squad won a moral victory over a highly touted Washburn team, 31 to 34. The experts didnât give Central a chance. Stiiuling: Mr. MirUcy, R. Soukup. B.

Losing to teams they were favored over and upsetting some of the highly touted nines, the Red and Blue played somewhat erratic ball; however, they gave the season a fitting climax by capturing the runner-up position in the Carlcton Invitational meet. The outstanding performances of Ralph Gilbert, pitcher; Hob Samucl-son, third base; and Warren Ajax, outfield; reserved them places on an all-city team selected by the sports writers of 1939. Following the established precedent, the Central racquetccrs won their sixth straight city championship. Not satisfied with just the city crown, the netters went on to add the Carlcton Invitational and the Northwest meets to their list of laurels. Chris Gcan-koplis played first singles for Central; Wally Anderson, second; and Bcrnic Nelson, third. Bob Bruce and Bob Niedenfuchr made up the first doubles, while Bob Dahlbcrg and Chapman handled the second. âąH 116 â nA i t A aA A .A â A rA A .A Top row- B. FjkImmi, J. Grogan, D. l oÂŁken. C OUon.

The tournament was tun off at Hiawatha golf course under the direction of Charles Addington. Red and Blue golf coach. Each player winning two matches in the tournament received a golf ticket whether he got on the team or not. Any student was allowed to challenge any member of the team to match play for his position. Last yearâs team won third in the all-city tournament. TRACK Coacheo by bill hawker and captained by Grant Ilasley the Red and Blue track squad set forth into the 1940 track season. Because of the absence of practically all of last yearâs performers ami the presence of a host of inexperienced sophomore material, concentration was centered upon the development of a team for next year. However, during the season the squad participated in the Metropolitan Indoor meet and several dual meets with other schools. The team as a whole did not come up to the standard set by former Pioneer track teams. 117 GIRLS' COACHES GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Top picture Mr . SUntfirl ), Mitt Ztcrorr Top row: L. NmJ, A.

In the spring of 1940 Miss Ziemer went to Columbia University where she worked toward obtaining her Masterâs Degree. During her absence, Mrs. Velma Fricson competently carried on Miss Zicmcrâs duties. These instructors tried to interest the girls in sports so as to aid them physically, and develop their personalities. They advocated good sportsmanship and participation in the many sports offered by the Girlsâ Athletic Association. Our girlsâ athletic association was organized in 1913 with a membership of 31. It has grown in size every year until this year there arc 147 in its ranks. Its purpose is to promote sports, good will, and patriotism among the girls. Its democratic policies are directed by a group of 16 students. This board makes appointments, carries on elections, fills vacancies occurring on the board, and plans and stages the membership parties. This yearâs officers were, president, Clara I.ou Brcckheimcr; vice-president, Barbara Barclay; and secretary, Beverly Pawlak. 118 EMBLEM AND C WINNERS REFEREES Top row: A. Klinkcnbrrg, F_ TulB  , R.

Matologttn The c. a. a. emblem has always been the highest award in sports tor girls at Central. In order to earn this coveted award, a girl was required to earn 1500 points by participating in the various sports offered. Points were awarded to those girls playing a specified number of games in the tournaments which they entered. These tournaments included volleyball, field hockey, diamondball, touch football, basketball, deck tennis, badminton, and tennis. A âC was given to those girls having 1000 points. A scholastic average of âCâ is also required for both the emblem and letter. The girls' croup sports were refereed by members of the Girls' Athletic Association who had passed required tests given on the rules and regulations of the game they were to referee. By olficiating a certain number of games, girls earned 100 points toward their emblem or letter. If they missed one game, they only received 50 points. Decisions were arrived at immediately and were fair and accurate. Although the referees werenât professionals, they always tried to be unbiased in their decisions, and the players were willing to abide by their opinions. Standing: A. Moiolog.tct, P. Wherltr, P.

The Pigskin Parkers ran, passed, and kicked their way to glory, losing but one game by a small margin. Pat Wheeler, stellar player, proved her supremacy in her strategic execution of plays. The championship game was an exciting parley with the Blanks as their opponent. The teams were so evenly matched that they held each other to a scoreless tic. Field hockey inaugurated this yearâs sports for the junior and senior girls. The season opened with the Streaks, winners for two seasons, as the favorites. This team battled its way to the top with six victories and no defeats. Marion Sampson, post-graduate and favorite player, showed great ability in leading her teammates throughout the season. The title match was played with the Cubs and was a tough battle for the Streaks. 120 r- .A A âą A «⹠Top ruw: l(. Carl. A Olion. M. ft ylr. E. CHton. E. AndiMiH, H Aixirrioa. S. Ffidbubii, I .

It was an elective activity and required a sophomore gym credit for enrollment. Graceful movements in running, dancing, and walking were objectives in the yearâs training. The girls did all their work to music so as to attain perfect rhythm. Each year the dancers go to the University for participation in an all-dance exhibition. HIKING Each of the thirty hiking enthusiasts plodded ofT thirty-five miles last fall to earn fifty points toward the coveted âC. Phyllis Bergquist, student manager in this field, planned the various hikes; one to the Rose Gardens, another to fiftieth and Park, and another to Third and Grant. There were seven hikes in all; each one averaged about five miles. Before leaving on these hikes, the girls signed up in the gymn. In this way the attendance was checked. 121 B Skmiuk. L. OLon. D.

Before the tournament began on April 23, three practices were held. Only the girls who attended the three practices were allowed to participate in the elimination tournament. Alvera Olson had charge of this sport and saw that the games were played on schedule. Badminton Badminton, a comparatively new sport at Central, attracted thirty junior and senior girls this spring. The tournament was a doubles elimination playoff and all girls playing five or more games were given 100 points towards their athletic awards. This tournament was played on Mondays and Thursdays beginning April 22. Jean Meservey was the board member in charge of this sport. J24 A A I. Three smart girls. 2. Holm at home. 3. Prize winners. 4.

THE 1939 GALE ESSAY CRIME AND ITS ECONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE Fa i ry 45 minutes there is a death by violence in the United State . Thirtv- evcn deaths every 24 hours add to the sum of 12,000 per year. There are approximately 1,500,000 major crimes each year, not including petty offenses or misdemeanors. âso reads part of the United States' crime statistic in Washington. Crime presents to the country an annual bill of approximately 12 to 15 billion dollars. It represents the social loss of which prisons, jails, and reformatories are examples. The church, the home, and the school have failed to act as preventive agencies against crime; ami for every $2.50 spent for education, $1.50 is spent for crime. When a criminal rob a store and takes 50 dollars, that accounts for the cost of crime; but there is also the cost of maintaining an adequate police force to keep the wheels of justice moving. This expense include patrolmen at eight dollars jvr day: detectives at eight to ten dollars per day; photographers; fingerprint experts; salaries of prosecuting attorneys; ami clerks of all descriptions. There is also the cost of the police communication system, police stations, courts, and patrol cars. If the criminal U finally caught ami if he is experienced in the ways of the law, he never misses an opportunity to take an appeal, and thereby starts revolving an expensive machinery that will cost the taxpayer hundreds of thousands of dollars. The average cost to the people of each criminal court trial, excluding murder, is 100 dollars. Mott important of all in the crime bills of the nation is the cost of the confirmed criminal with a long record. Each time he is arrested, he is represented in court as an innocent man until convicted. It is of little importance that he may represent thousands of dollars already spent as a result of his previous criminal activities. In case of acquittal, he is again free, turned loose, ami perha| s commits another crime, thereby bringing into operation anew the expensive machinery of police investigation. Me it viewed solely as an economic waste, and his existence to society has come to represent a dollar cost which is inexcusable, and which in time to come will be well nigh disastrous. It would be a comparatively easy task if the committer of the deed were the only one to reckon with. But beside this parasite of society, the state hat to contend with the criminal medico who changes facial contours, the gun molls who fight for their criminal husbands, nurses, crooked judges, district attorneys, accountants, magistrates, policemen, and even garage owners. A organized forces turn to combat against more organized crime, they find approximately 3,500,000 criminal members banded together by mutual suspicion and common fear forming a great part of what is notoriously known as the underworld. This assemblage which is the sediment and rot of our country has its own laws, customs, languages, and ways of life. It appoints itself jury, judge, and executioner of its members. Punishment, you can be sure, is swift and deadly. Allies! with it are experts of every line, each of whom has been bought at his own price. Detection and disposal of hot goods or stolen money are the main problems in the lives of these marauders, but with ramifications spreading into a network involving thousands of apparently respectable people, these problems soon dwindle to a mere matter of routine. Is it because the portals of justice arc not wide enough because of the lack of friends: or is it that the methods of operation are so antiquated and inefficient that crime cannot be curtailed? Tak- ing a rough inventory of the entire public protecting unit, we find 15 federal prisons, 100 state penal institutions, 300 country jails, 12,865 detectives. 9,350 marshals, and so on down the line, totaling 173,510 peace officers who. incidentally, arc paid by the public. This does not include 159,319 policemen and watchmen privately employed by railroads, hanks, and stock companies. The cost of this machinery totals almost as much as the local amount paid in taxes each year by the people of the United States. Of course, crooked politics presents a formidable wall to the administrators of justice. Although almost every policeman is honest, it ill behoove him to openlz defy organized crime if he has a wife or children. Too. while investigating, he may expose leaders of rackets who often work in unison svith the heads of the police force, and this offense means cither a transfer to a discreditable position or an untrue excuse for dismissal from the force. While the annals of justice pour forth their story of crime, where it the public, the group who pays both ways, both for crime and crime prevention? Despite all the earnest efforts of the investigating bureaus without public cooperation and protection from crooked politics, the courts of law work slowly and laboriously. When aroused public opinion operates, action by police, prosecutors, and courts moves swiftly. Information, sometimes seemingly petty information, is the aid that is needed to solve cases. This can only be had by arousing the nation out of its indifferent and lethargic attitude so that full cooperation may be had by the national and state criminal fighters. The public has become hardened to crime. While the newspapers print it, the radio tells it, ami the theater show it; we Americans sit by ami watch the procession of collectors take our hard earned dollars. We may not pay the doctor, dentist, or grocer, but we do pay for crime. If any property is stolen, we pay directly; ami on top of that we pay indirectly to get back what has just been taken and is practically as good at lost. Why. crime is the best collection agency in the world, and the public should become aware of the fact that they arc paying for a needless waste! If the state levied a crime insurance including the administration of criminal law together with the cost of compensation to the victim of the law's blunders ami presented this bill to every corporation and citizen, the taxpayers already carrying the cost of police protection would be so enraged at the injustice of crime that crime would decrease 100 per cent. There would be such a hurrying and scurrying in support of law enforcement, such zeal in reporting lawlessness, and such cooperation with the police in catching and prosecuting the culprits that crime would be merely a bad memory of a preceding era. If crime increase with the rapidity that it has in the last few years, it will become necessary in the future to employ a plan that will have nation-wide results, in order that America may be free from this menace.

To be sure, the boy of the Senior Class seems to be half grown up, dignified man and half irresponsi-ble boy. Last night I saw a Central boy all dressed up in real citizen's clothes and doing the gallant on the corner, and then, all of a sudden, he turned one of the most acrobatic somersaults I ever saw. Well, said he. as he came up again, see you at seven, ansi he picked up his hat and put it on at the most effective angle. But this just goes to prove that the social life at Central is natural and presumably wholesome. The girl admires the grown-up-ness and accepts the somersault. Of course, the social life of a school consists of more than individual relationships. There arc parties and dances. They can be lots of fun. It all depends on how many people arc ready to give the other person a good time. These parties arc a chance to learn how not to stand around the wall and wish for a girl whoâs not there, or be a wistful wall-flower. It all goes back to the golden rule and that's where most social life begins. Perhaps we need more chances to get together and develop success at the social game. Carolyn A. Retd. Interest, helpful cooperation, and an eagerness to participate in all phases of the class activities whether in leading parts or in the menial tasks behind scenes, have marked the good spirit of your class toward its responsibilities. It is never a difficult nutter to find students who enjoy taking prominent roies in any project; they enjoy a place in the limelight of the school. But the members of your class have shown an interest first of all in the success of the project itself; theirs is a sense of joy in helping even though the glory for them as individual workers may be small. I was happily surprised at the number of students who came to me, not asking for parts in the class play but volunteering to work on the production staff. You have also been outstanding for your spirit of loyalty and good will toward each other, an unselfishness, and a desire to give glory to those you feel deserve honors. For the first time in several years a senior class has had a successful party, and I hope that the spirit which made it a success will carry over into all your activities as a class or as individuals. May whatever you do be for you a day in the sun! I.oRiNt K. Grosz. An economics teacher, pinch-hitting for an English scribe, dares attempt a scribblc-scrawl on Senior Financial Difficulties. Graduation, like Aurora, appears rosy on the horizon. At last! Three years of effort, more or less strenuous, ami soon the graduation march begins. Alackl Alas! The purse is almost depleted. Raiment must be purchased, pictures. Ccntralian. and News bills paid. Thumity! Thuniity! go the brains. A date? To have it or not? Shades of jupitcr! NVho ever invented that awful money system? Miss Thrifty-Senior has had a school bank account since sophomore days. Her buying has been economical. She needs one new dress, also a pair of shoes, and her previous permanent renewed. Easter accessories can be used. What a relief! Will he invite her out after graduation exercises? More excuses! Mr. Spcnd-It-AII must dig into dad's purse, but dad has lost his job, so now very few pictures, no date, clothes only brushed up. That will have to do. Miss Average-Senior-Girl ami Mr. Average-Senior-Boy will buy economically, at stores where quality counts. They realize their financial limitations. They have spent, respent their money for graduation in dreamland many times. Now reality faces them. The dollars dwindle rapidly. Friendly gifts come to the rescue. Yet! Their financial difficulties are not over but just beginning. Be not downhearted. Seniors! The ghost of dollars cannot haunt you forever. Hard work, sane living, wise saving will bring you happiness. Good luck' Your old schoolmaster in room 220 want to a K a few questions and give you his blessing. As you look luck, do you find in your hearts a deep degree of appreciation for the services teachers rendered, and have you learned to take the responsibilities which are necessary in order to be better citizens? Personality is what you will need. Candidly, I think that you emphasize the attributes which you will not need so much more than the requisites for building character. You participate in golf, dancing, hitch-hiking, joy-riding, movies, radio, tennis, am! all sports, but you are not so eager for the effort characteristics, such as study, responsibility, and work. Are you not rather selfish? Of course you need recreation, but your personality need more industry, sense of duty and obligation, and experiences in some of the hardships of life. A boy in the June, 1940 Class said to me recently: I was absent from school yesterday because hitch-hiking was no good. He lived only twelve blocks from school, and to walk was effort. Another boy of the January, 1940 Class said: I do not like to acerpt that job. I want to wait for one with higher pay. He is still idle. It has all been too easy, yet it has been too hard. O. K. Ki enster. HUtt be the man who gets the news in fntt, Hut thrice blest he whose stories we can trust. A placard carrying the above bit of doggerel is said to have adorned the walls of the city room of a large newspaper for several years in the last half of the 19th Century. Crude at it may be, it emphasizes the importance which the editor of an older day placed upon accuracy. Fall tors of today, both school and professional, arc just as insistent upon truthful reporting a were those of the 1800's. Newspapers do, occasionally, make mistakes; but the wonder is, not that they make mistakes, but that they make so few. Your school paper is the most complete and reliable record of your school life. The Central Hii(h Sews mirrors that thought ami actions of Central students, it records all school events, supports all school activities, and through its exchanges and competition in national contests advertises your school to the world. The present News staff joins me in greeting The Alumni anti wishing for all of you âstories we can trust. J. F.. Mulligan. I have been ASKED to make a few comments on the problems of right and wrong that confront high school students. To get first-hand information I asked my students to write down their own thoughts on the subject. The following are a few excerpts. âThe average high school girl is a little too sophisticates! and the average boy is too conceitesl and cocksure. On the whole they are good honest kids but they have an overbearing quality that makes an ordinary person ill at case. ... I usually receive good marks on my report card, but when fellow students hear about it they call me 'sucker' and 'teacher's pet.â ...âNo boy would think of going steady with a cheap girl. ... Most high school students feel that to get in the âgood crowd they have to do the things the crowd does. ... The majority of the girls who smoke do it because they think it is smart. Hollywood influence and grownups tempt youth.â... Many parents are too indulgent and allow matters concerning their sons and daughters to ride until they are jolted out of their apathy by the discovery that their children are being ruled by bad habits. ... Adolescents naturally mock adults and it is right that they should. But sometimes the examples are poor. High school youth do nothing bad that their ciders didn't start. ... After reading these and similar comments from one hundred and fifty students one is led to conclude that the âyounger generation ha its feet on the ground. Hrllen B. Pink. R. H. Classon. THE CENSUS COMES TO CENTRAL . . 1940 A. D. Have you ever been askexj these questions?ââHow many students are enrolled at Central?â (population). âWhen was the school founded?â (birthdatc). âHow large is the faculty?â (head of the house). While Uncle Sam has been counting noses this year we might do well to take stock of our own little worldâ old Central High. These figures will mean more as we grow older and make comparisons.

There arc too few opportunities during the year for old classmates to get together and recollect things that occurred, and renew friendships made when in high school; hence, the Alumni Association hopes that it can serve in a small way these needs. All graduating seniors arc members, automatically, of the Association. This group, which today numbers more than forty-five thousand and has been in existence for almost sixty-two years, is more than âjust another organization. Its whole purpose and plan arc shown in its Certificate of Incorporation which reads in parts, âThe general purpose of this corporation shall Ik to establish and promote the general welfare of the students of Minneapolis Central High School. You as a member of this organization can carry on those friendships made 3nd help others who arc in those happy days of high school to have just such memories as yours. We have as members men who arc considered to be the most prominent and successful in Minneapolis, hut this organization docs not belong to any one individual nor to any small group of individuals. Its officers cannot alone assure a successful group, nor can they give its members any permanent carry-over of their high school days in memory or in practice. The Alumni Association lKlongs to everyone who has graduated from Centralâits usefulness is entirely dependent upon the interest exhibited by this group. Each one must help to unite to maintain the finest traditions of good sportsmanship, good scholarship, and good fellowship that the name Central High School has grown to mean. May I say in closing that I personally as well as president of the Association wish you all success upon your graduation? My greatest wish for you would be the continuation of the friendships you have made in High School, and the welcoming hand of the Alumni Association to help carry on those friendships. Lawrence R. Barette President of the Central High School Alumni Association 139 r ince Gutenberg admired the work of his head and hand 500 years ago untold millions of people have been blessed by the printed word.

Betty Scott and Marcella Johnson for keeping the âGood Book in order; the editorial stall for their work in making the book, and the business stall for their work in financing the annual; our subscribers and advertisers without whose support we would have been unable to have a Ccntralian; and last, but by far not the least, the Central High office force for the many things they did for us, and the teachers for their kind cooperation in helping to collect the subscription money. We hope that these people enjoyed working with us, the Ccntralian stall, half as much as we enjoyed working with them.
