LIBRARY CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL ms CENTRAL AN Published by the Senior Class of CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL LIBRARY CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA • Photography by Photo Craft Studios • Engraved and Printed by Bureau of Engraving, Incorporated D ED CAT ON • To all the members of the January and June classes of Central High School who are in the armed services or are about to enter, we dedicate this Centralian of the year 1945. We salute you, each and every one, and believe with our strongest faith that you will do your duty for God and country. We cherish in deep and hallowed reverence the memory of those brave men whose final resting place is a fathomless ocean grave or a mound on native or foreign soil marked by a tiny white cross. OUR PRINCIPAL Members of the 1945 Graduating Classes: • Your three years in high school have been stirring ones. Your country has been at war, and many who entered Central with you in the fall of '42 are now in active service on the various fronts. On the home front you have given generously of your time, effort, and money as the various calls have come. As you are graduated, the military victory seems assured in the not too distant future. For you and the youth of the world the great challenge will be to help in the winning and preserving of the peace. May your three years at Central have given you a training in cooperative, democratic living that will help you to contribute your share to the solution of this great problem. Anna Belle Thomas. THE OffICE STAff • The administrative reins at Central High School were taken over by Miss Thomas when she became acting principal in January, 1944. She ably and efficiently shouldered all the administrative duties during the fall semester of 1944 when she was left without an assistant as school opened in September. Mr. R. H. Classon was appointed as acting assistant principal about January 1, 1945. The counselors. Miss Clare Bell and Mr. Henry Rohde continued to give invaluable aid to students by helping to plan courses of study, giving information on college entrance requirements, special schools, and work opportunities. Special occupational con- ferences were arranged in the more common lines of work and assistance was given in solving the personal problems of students. Mrs. Marion Boyd, visiting teacher, is the social worker representing the school. She calls on chronic absentees, and acts as the intermediary between home and school in adjusting student problems. The health of Central students is carefully watched by our school nurse. Miss Walborg Wayne. The routine office work of our school is efficiently handled by our staff of office clerks composed of Mrs. Dorothy Faughnder, Chief Clerk; Miss Beatrice Gins-burg, attendance clerk; Miss Betty Anderson, book clerk, and Miss Marian Anderson, who has charge of school requisitions. • OFFICE STAFF— B.

The party which had as its theme the Red River Valley Gang.” was the highlight of the term and will not soon be forgotten. The girls in gingham dresses and the boys in blue jeans and large plaid shirts danced Virginia reels and square dances to calls given by Mrs. Mansfield. The ”Boys’ Ballet” performed by Erick Wickstrom, Vernon Erickson, Leroy Nyhus. John Ubcll, Kenny Walsh, Mike Rich-dorf, and Maurice DeLong, brought forth gales of laugh- ter, as did the dancing of the Butterfly” by Mr. Markley and Mrs. Mansfield. The class play, Every Family Has One,” was presented in December under the direction of Miss Jeanne Troussant. With the adoption of an enlarged budget, every senior received the school publications and had the usual senior expenses paid for in advance. Baccalaureate services were held in the school auditorium on January 22. Out of a class of 160 pupils, 22 boys received their diplomas by earning credits in the armed services. The class was graduated on January 25. • SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS— M. Miller. Mi . Lauby, II. Knuditon, L. Pawlak. • SENIOR CLASS CABINET—!.. Nyhus, B. Sorenson. R. Leak, M. Harford. H.

Leak, J. Peterson, H. Knudtson. SPECIAL HONORS • Early in the term the January class elected their four officers. Walter Lauby was chosen president; Laurel Pawlak, vice-president; Mavis Miller, secretary; and Howard Knudtson, treasurer. The class cabinet consisted of nine members besides the four officers. The members were the chairmen and co-chairmen of seven committees. Heading the class day committee was Vernon Erickson. This committee worked along with the social, service, and program committees on the planning of the party and banquet. The social committee, with Jacquelyn Dow and Roger Leak as co-chairmen, also arranged for any social events the class desired. Ruth Paquin and William Bergstrom shared the responsibility for the service committee who got the scenery for the class play and arranged all the tables and furniture for the class banquet. The duties of Jeanne Peterson, chairman of the publicity committee, were to see that the class got enough, and the right kind, of publicity. Robert Dawson, as chairman of the memorial committee, had charge of the business management of the class play and with the profits selected a lecture stand and book case for the library as the class memorial. The class play committee with its chairman, Leroy Nyhus, chose the play to be presented by the class. There are many lengthened advisory periods in which the seniors have nothing to do. During these, programs were presented under the direction of the program committee. The committee was headed by Marjorie Harford. The honor of being elected a Representative Ccntralite was given to six students. They were Bernice Sorenson, Jeanne Peterson, Jacquelyn Dow, Roger Leak, Vernon Erickson, and Howard Knudtson. Because the class was so small, six instead of the usual ten representatives were elected. 8 JANUARY • MURIEL ANDERSON—“To know ber i to like hn. SluJrnt Council, Blue Tri, Girli Club, See.

Everybody set? We’re off, amid a rush of hot air. Now the time machine is bringing us down on Seventh and Hennepin in the Minneapolis of the future. We step down onto the moving sidewalk which carries us to the Cafe Exception.de. The electric eye opens the door and we are greeted with a big Hi! by Bernie Coleman, rotund and jolly owner of the world famous cafe. Sitting at the left in the Red and Blue Room, we see Ray Gammon, movie idol of a million American women, with the famous tennis star. Laurel Pawiak. As Vern Erickson, the great movie producer, enters, accompanied by his latest protege, Mavis Miller, the lights dim and the floor show begins.

Comedian Orval Kock takes over now and renders a side splitting routine with the aid of his very able assistant, Norman Bale. The floor rolls back, revealing an ice skating rink, and Jeanne Peterson glides in wearing a costume of spun nylon. The program comes to an end as the Centralcttcs, Lauretta Chcvelier, Barbara Hill, Margie Harford, and Jacky Dow do their dance routine. Time to leave. Reaching into our pocket and discovering no folding money, we try to sneak out through the kitchen and to our amazement, there is Ruth Paquin sawing off a 1 J -inch T-bone steak. (Ration points no longer needed.) We get no further, for Johnny Ubcl and Leroy Nyhus, bouncers, arc upon us. As soon as they discover we’re without funds, we arc put to work washing dishes. Help comes soon in the forms of I.cnny Carter and Shirley Cannon, who have met the same fate as our own. JUNE CLASS DREAM • Hold on to your hats, kids! We’re off on a trip into the future. The time—19SS—the place—a class party held at Central. A big program has been planned, so stick around. Some definite changes arc evident around here— the addition of a fifth floor which contains a recreation room, soda fountain, and swimming pool. And better still, an escalator has been put in, so let's go in and sec what’s cookin’. Who’s this coming in the door? It’s Gen. Wally Dale (six star, no less) with Mrs. Dale (Jeanne Hultgren). Representing the press, here to write up the occasion, is Duane Andrews, Editor of the Star Journal Tribune and author of the best seller. The Scientific Approach in the Art of Lovemaking.” With him is the chief photographer of Life Magazine, Rosie Tkach. In the corner, Clem Hunter, youngest professor at Vassar, and Bob Lindquist, a big time construction engineer for the government, arc arguing about the price of beef in Italy. We are honored to have in our midst Gov. Frank Bruce, and those cinema favorites Eva Michalson and Tygable Clarkpower (formerly Butch Hart-wig). Eva and Butch have just finished a million dollar picture on the life of the famous Marine hero, Burt Johnson. Here comes Burt now with his vivacious little wife, Mickey (Finncrty). Let’s trot back stage and see some more of our old pals. There’s John Almen, television big shot, reviving some of his stage crew daze. Sitting at the piano arc Betty Sharp and 88 Keys” Baden. Both are top entertainers. Dancing to their piano doodling arc John Wilmot and Bev Bernath who manage an exclusive dancing salon in New York. Over yonder, we cast our optics on dancer Dot Haller who has just completed a personal appearance tour of all the South American countries. Taking it easy before the program is the M. C. for the evening, John Kleven, who has just taken over (Continued on page 48) 22 • CENTRALIAN STAFF—Fin Ron: G. Hinwn, Tkach. Meyers, Schwartz. Lind cr, J. Petersen, Shrimpton. Second Row: G.

Because of the uncertainty of having a year book, the members of the staff were not appointed until November, 1944, instead of the preceding June. As a result, the staff had to work overtime many hours to meet their deadline. The Centralian pictures had to be taken in January and February because of the necessity of the early printing date. The pep assembly for subscriptions was held on February 23. With the help of Mr. Robert Classon the staff has endeavored to give you a Centralian which is a credit to our school.

NEWS • For the first time in its history the Central High News was run by girl co-editors during the fall term. The News is a weekly paper published under the guidance of John E. Mulligan. The paper has always won awards, and this year was no exception. The staff of the fall term attended the Minnesota High School Press Association conference at the university where our paper won first place on the sports page, second place on the front page, and honorable mention on the editorial page. For two years the News has been sent all over the world to former Ccntralitcs now in the armed forces.

They have given countless hours of service, by providing for program and play rehearsals the necessary props, lights, and scenery. HALL MONITORS • May 1 sec your pass please,” is the friendly greeting of the hall monitor. These civic-minded students of Central High volunteer their services, during their study periods so that order may be maintained in our halls throughout the day. All students serving must have a C” average. During the first semester the hall monitors have worked under the supervision of Miss Thomas, principal, and during the second semester under Mr. Classon, assistant principal. In all instances these students have done a fine piece of work. Hall monitors, the students of Central salute you. • Phillip Green, carpenter; Eugene Johnson, projections; Noel Cadwell, flyman; Richard Enquist, sound technician; Roy Almen, electrician; John Almcn, stage manager. • TOP: HALL MONITORS—First Rou: M.

The orchestra is kept very busy during the year playing for assemblies, class plays, at baccalaureate services, and at graduating exercises. This year the combined choir and glee club has been working hard on the cantata The Holy City,” which they gave at a night performance during the latter part of April. Although they have spent most of their time on the cantata, they have taken part in special assemblies, at baccalaureate services, and at the Lenten service. Both the orchestra and choir are under the able direction of Mr. Chester Bclstrom. OUR MUSIC • CHOIR—f r. Rom : M. Vynn, R. Qoale. I), (immin. C. A-undton. C. ftrUirom, E. Scholl, I .

As is the custom, our Thanksgiving and Easter programs were of a religious nature. The Reverend Armstrong delivered a Lenten message, while Reverend Reuben Youngdahl spoke at our Thanksgiving program. The orchestra furnished appropriate music for all occasions. We were honored to have Congressman Walter Judd and columnist George Grimm speak to the student body about the problems of the postwar world. Barb Anderson, Val Shrimpton and Dick Mayes were among the singing talent that appeared on Central’s stage this year. Pianists included Audrey Ovcrson, Bill Baden, Doug Crocker and Howie Knudtson. Bev Bernath and John Wilmot provided many laughs with their imitations of various types of dancers. At the right we see The Three V’s, Dick Mayes and Alton Johnson.” I MAKERS • • BAND—lint Ron: D.

However, later Mr. Strom left for another position, and for a few days the band was without a leader. Since Mr. Chester Bclstrom. the new conductor, has taken over the band, it has enlarged its membership. The band meets in the auditorium first hour, and one can often hear strains of familiar marches echoing through the halls during this period. Throughout the term the band has played at many patriotic and regular assemblies and has added a great deal of zest to the pep programs. I 27 • HONOR SOCIETY—(FALL)—Pint Row: J. Nolan, D. Fystrom, J.

Students who have met scholarship qualifications must also measure up to these character standards. The Honor Society is composed of 5 per cent of the A junior class with a 2.3 average, 10 per cent of the B senior class having a like record, and 15 per cent of the A senior class having at least a 2. average. Meetings of the society have been held during fourth hour or at an extended advisory period, be- cause so many students work after school. A special meeting brought Carleton Mills, war veteran, who related his experiences in a hospital in Austria, in the Stalag Luft 3 prison camp, and in the Frankfort rest homes. He spoke in detail of the trip back to the United States on the Gripsholm. Mrs. I.uclla B. Cook of the Curriculum Department of the Board of Education was the speaker at a luncheon held December 13. Dr. Walter Judd. Fifth District Congressman, as guest of the Honor Society on January 10, emphasized the problems of our returning war veterans and of our post-war future. In accordance with the plan initiated a year ago, the Society entertained B sophomores with an honor rating for the first six weeks, and those in 10A who had an honor rating in 10B. STUDENT COUNCIL • During the fall term a new system of student government was inaugurated. The previous spring council had adopted a new constitution which united the junior and senior councils into one student council. This constitution provided for one representative from each home room, and one for every thirty A” seniors. Under the leadership of Frank Bruce the council functioned very efficiently through the use of committees. Miss Thomas guided the council as the faculty adviser. The spring council membership was increased by an amendment which added to the membership of the council the vice presidents of the Honor Society, the All Central Hi-Y, the Blue Tri. the Silver Tri, the Girls’ Club, and the G. A. A. Also, a representative from the following: Ncu-s. banking, and the Red Cross. This amendment brought into the council more experienced leaders. Mr. Classon, the faculty adviser, worked very diligently to make the Student Council a more active organization in student affairs. The active standing committees that carried out the work of the Council were: conduct, assembly, social, lawn, service, lunchroom, hall, library, and publicity. It is believed that this year’s council set a new high in student participation in school government at Central High. LATIN CLUB • The Latin Club in the past year has increased its membership many times over and is now one of the leading clubs in the school under the guidance of Miss Estelle Conway. On the second Tuesday in November, 1944, the club members met in the teachers' lunchroom for the banquet. The students were dressed in Roman togas and other clothes of that day. This year the patriotic service of the club was its contributions to the Greek War Relief. MIMES AND MUMMERS • Membership in the dramatic club is limited to thirty, and those admitted had to pass try-outs” which consisted of some reading or recitation before the coach and club members. Maintaining a passing mark in all subjects the previous semester, and being voted upon by the members of the club are other requirements. It is under the direction of Miss Lorine Grosz. • LATIN CLUB—ffrU Ron S. Telecky. C. Granlund. J. I ok. ken, J. Hunt, J. Matchka. C. Andrrton. J. Ottre.m, R. Brrne. Vromi Ron B Shea. J. M. Prtrr.cn.

The purpose of the club was to promote a spirit of cooperation and fellowship, and to encourage education along lines of social betterment and service. Under the supervision of Miss Thomas, Miss Fox, Miss Bireline, and Miss Miller, Central girls became better acquainted with each other at the meetings which were held on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month. Activities of the fall semester were an opening membership party and meetings which included an explanation of football tactics by Mr. Weber, and the annual Christmas party. During the spring semester, the club faithfully carried on their Red Cross work. tends their service. After discussing many possibilities, the fall cabinet decided upon a project for the term. A red and blue badge with a covered wagon on it was designed by Ardis Lauttamus as their project. The organization sewed on badges during their meetings. The spring chapter will carry on v ith this project, and when they arc finished the badges will be sold to the student body. In honor of the ”B” junior girls who left the organization, a Mothers’ and Daughters’ Tea was held in January. Featured at the spring membership party was ' Romance Inc.,” a discussion by a group of boys and girls from the university about problems in which high school girls arc interested. _ .. 0 • Twelve years ago the necessity of having S L V t K Jn organization for the younger girls at _ _ . Central was seen. As a result the Silver Tri- Tl I angle was formed for the sophomore and B” junior girls. A Recognition Service was held at the Y. W. C. A. in October.

W. C. A. and one of the older clubs in Central I ligh School, consists of girls in the A junior year and the senior year. It is under the direction of Miss Dorothy Daniels, Miss Frances Korista, and Miss Ella Liskey. 'Phis year, for war service, the Blue Tri has done most of the work on the new service flag and has aided the Red Cross in preparing tooth brush holders, paper bags, and tray covers for the convalescing service men. In addition, the girls gave a ten dollar art scholarship for a talented but less fortunate girl. A new club started in 1944 by the all-city Blue Tri and Hi-Y is the Hi-Havcn, a teen-age club for boys and girls, held at the Y. W. C.

A. • Formed in 1913, the purpose of the Girls’ Athletic Association is to provide a means of girls getting together outside of school through athletics and sports. The cabinet, advised by Mrs. Mansfield and Miss Westerberg, made appointments, carried on elections, filled vacancies occurring on the board, and planned and staged the membership parties. The three main awards are the emblem, C,” and star. The emblem requires 1,000 points, a C-f average, and a good standing in general citizenship. 600 points, a C average, and good citizenship are required for a C.” Stars arc awarded to girls on championship teams. This year's basketball tournament consisted of a double round-robin and each team played six games. The winners were the Super DeLuxcs, whose captain was Shirlee Cannon. The volleyball tournament started February 20. One hundred points were awarded for six out of seven biking trips, and fifty points for four out of seven. About twelve miles was the average for each outing. Hikes were planned and about three miles were covered each outing. One hundred points were given for five out of six trips and fifty points for four. Officers for the spring semester were Margaret Wasick, president; Elenore Nelson, vice-president, and Lois Estabrook, treasurer. Central's trophies were polished by the G.A.A. The polish was furnished by the C” Club. Because she was taking a course in physical education at the University of Minnesota, Betty Erickson, fall president, missed part of the semester's activities and is not pictured. • G.A.A.

ACMY • The Acmy Hi-Y Chapter was started in the fall of 44” by a group of 10A boys. Up to date they have had a very successful club. During the Christmas season the boys helped out at the Y. M. C. A. Christmas tree lot. The profit from the sale of these trees will help send under-privileged boys to camp. The Acmys had a very successful basketball season by tying a veteran chapter for third place. S. T. A. • Although the S. T. A. chapter of the Hi-Y was handicapped by their small membership, they took part in many school and community activities. Taking part in the Hi-Y basketball tournament they took fourth place. They gained three new members through the induction services, and this year should be their biggest and most successful one. DUX • The Dux Hi-Y, although organized only last September, has rapidly developed into a fine club.

During the spring semester the club has concentrated on a membership drive and general club improvement. The letters P-A-X stand for popularity, athletics and Christianity. As in the past, our present members are doing their best to uphold these standards. GOPHERS • The chief function which the Gophers sponsored this year was the Gopher Gallopade. a dance for the whole school. Along with many other things, the Gophers enjoyed picnics, hay rides, and riding parties. The all Hi-Y election in the beginning of the term was handled by the Gophers, and the boys ushered at the annual Bluc-Tri-Hi-Y Lenten Service. SPARTANS • The Spartans were proud to have among their members the two All-City football men from Central. They were Bud Leak and Ray Gammon. Vern Erickson, another Spartan, received honorable mention in All-City football and was Salutatorian of his graduating class in January. One of the chief service projects of the Spartans was aiding in keeping Central's lunch room clean. LINX • The Linx, one of the oldest Hi-Y clubs in Central, has had complete charge of the lunchroom during the last semester. They wrote a sophomore paper for the new students to acquaint them with the school. The Linx also had charge of the all Hi-Y and Blue Triangle joint meeting last April.

EVERY FAMILY HAS ONE • Every Family Has One.” by George Batson, was selected as the January Class Play and was presented December 8 before an enthusiastic audience. It is a brilliant comedy concerning the trials of an over-anxious mother, Laura Reardon, who tries to marry her daughter into a family of class and background, the Parkers. Mr. and Mrs. Parker arc in favor of having their son, Sherwin, marry Marcia Reardon, but are also very much interested in a jam manufacturing business owned by the Reardons. However, Nana Reardon, active, energetic, Crosby-loving grandmother, who has a habit of saying what she thinks, is so opposed to the marriage that she collaborates with Lily Reardon, a visitor, to defeat the plans. Finding that the Reardons arc not what they had thought them, the Parkers leave in a huff, much to the delight of Nana and Marcia, who decide that Todd Galloway is the man to marry her even though his ancestors didn't come over on the Mayflower. Miss Jeanne Toussaint, University of Minnesota Senior, must be congratulated for such a splendid production. • JANUARY CLASS PLAY—Sifting: J. Ubel. L. Piwlik. B. Coder, H. Knudtton, M. Miller, L.

That the play met with the hearty approval of the audience was evidenced by their delight in the portrayal of each character and the many amusing incidents of the play. Eva Michalson as Penny, that delightful adolescent who changed from a teasing, playful youngster into a serious young woman, desperate to win the approval of the cosmopolite Roger Van Vlcck, won the heart of everyone. Her scorn of Chuck and his glider and her concentration upon getting the daring formal with which to charm Roger complicated her life for the moment, and it was with relief that the audience saw her become disillusioned and realize the true worth of Chuck, the boy next door, portrayed so realistically in all of his awkwardness of adolescence by Duane Andrews. Lois Lonnquist was convincing as the sophisticated Julie who enjoyed the adoration of both Roger and Mervyn, and not until the stress of the loss of Chuck did she show the genuine person she really was. The dislike of the audience for Roger Van Vlcck proved how well Carroll Hartwig personified the sophisticated visitor, Roger, who complicated matters by captivating Penny’s heart, and stealing Julie from Kenny Heidelberg in the role of Mervyn, whose life was complicated by the ever present kindergarten Mac West, Milly Lou, portrayed by Betty Sharp. Valatrice Shrimpton and Douglas Burncs as Effic and Elmer the hired help” were excellent as the comedians of the play. Who will ever forget Etfic’s petticoat and her big shoes, or Elmer’s easy going ways and his comical facial expressions? Bonnie Bair and Bob Morris typified the young fry in Penny’s crowd, as Shirley and Ralph Wentworth. Walter Zesbaugh portrayed the long-suffering Dr. Woods and was convincing with his mature voice and dignity. Myrtle Midtdahi characterized the kindly, understanding mother, Mrs. Woods, who realized that her daughter’s plight was only an evidence of June madness and not to be taken too seriously. Jim Kicklcr was realistic as the worrying parent who had to be both mother and father to Julie and Chuck Harris, his son and daughter. • JUNE CLASS PLAY—SHmJlmg: B. Bur. B. Morris, C. Hirtvig. M.

Except for an early defeat at the hands of a powerful Henry eleven, the Red and Blue were undefeated. Coach Joe Markiey believes that this year’s team was one of the best he has ever had. Central’s first string consisted of Jack Watson and Vernon Erickson, ends; Ray Gammon and George Gaspard, tackles; Captain Bud l.eak and Carroll Hartwig, guards; Don Johnson, center; Bernie Coleman, quarterback; Erick Wickstrom and Earl Bowman, halfbacks, and John Wil-mot, fullback. Ray Gammon and Bud Leak were named to the mythical all-city eleven for their brilliant play, and Vernon Erickson and Earl Bowman were named to the second string. Central allowed their opponents only 32 points in seven games for the city defensive championship. Returning lettermen next fall arc Captain Milt Hall. Don Anderson. Gil Frank, Bob Mikkclson, Stan Lainc, and Sid Buchanan. The B” team under Ed Weber marched to four straight triumphs. The most promising players for next year’s varsity are Tom McNamee.

CENTRALS CAGERS • The 1944-45 Pioneer basketball team compiled a record of six victories and four defeats to finish fourth in the city race. The capers were hard hit by mid-year graduations as four players bowed out in January. Bernie Coleman, captain of the team and considered by sports writers as the best guard in the league, and Earl Bowman, rebound artist, were regulars missing after graduation. Leonard Carter and Howie Knudtson were reserves who turned in their uniforms in January. The starting lineup for the remainder of the schedule found Gene Blau, captain after Coleman’s graduation, and Jerry Schold at the forwards; Byron Blake at center, and Roy Hanson, Dick Johnson, and Jimmie Ford alternating at the guards. Schold, Blake and Blau finished fourth, fifth and sixth, respectively, in the All-City individual scoring race. McIntyre led with 211 points, and Schold garnered 99, Blake 91, and Blau 86. The Hawkermcn, although losing, played their best game against Henry. Blake, Schold, and Blau played their most consistent game making 19, 16 and 13 points, respectively. The game started out as a rout with Henry boasting a 22-5 lead early in the second period. After that Central began to click and crept to within six points of the winners with only two minutes remaining. The outlook for next season’s quint is very good as Blake, Schold, Ford, Johnson, and Schwartz are returning. It is not known whether or not Bill Hawker will continue to coach the cagers next year.

What the team lacks in experience they make up with their fighting spirit,” declared Mr. Addington. Since ten out of the sixteen members on this year’s squad were underclassmen, the groundwork has been laid for a promising season in 1946. • TENNIS—Frank Bruce carries Central's tennis hopes this year. He is the only letter-man returning and much is expected of him as he ranked among the best players in the city last season.

MITCH AND WILD BILL • Weston Mitchell, veteran and popular coach of Central high basketball, took over the cage reins at the University of Minnesota, succeeding Dr. Carl Nordly, last January 9. Mitchell stepped into the new position very easily as he has been following the Gophers closely since 1920. He is a personal friend of both Nordly and the assistant coach, Dave MacMillan, and has had access to university floor circles for many years. A producer of some of Minneapolis’ finest high school teams, Mitch had been cage director at Central for 27 years. A product of Stout Institute of Mcnomonic. Wisconsin, he started coaching at Minot High in 1912 and went back to Mcnomonic in 1914. He came to Minneapolis as a teacher at Bryant Junior in 1915 and, in 1918. took over the hardwood duties at Central with the adoption of basketball as an inter-scholastic sport. In 1921 and 1923 he had superlative clubs, winning the state tournament in 1921 and going to the Stagg national tourney at Chicago, where the Red and Blue went to the quarter finals before being eliminated by Crawfordsville, Indiana. Bill Hawker, coach of Central’s 'state championship track team of 1944, took over as basketball mentor where Mitch left off. Hawker did a splendid job with the Pioneer quint, winning five league games and losing only two. 42 • I. That one basket he won't make. Cagers Coleman and Blake will ee to that. 2.

Wally Zesbough, gag writer; Pat Robinson, comedienne; Bev Kiklas, writer of dizzy radio commercials; June Frcdcrickson, songstress, and swoon crooner, Al Johnson. (Val Shrimpton, a nurse, is out front to take care of all casualties.) Let’s go and see whom we can find in our audience. There arc Pat Patton, Gcrcnc Hoven and Donna Hazledine, models who were made famous by Photographer Larry Jeffries as was Dot Embretson, whose face adorns many a toothpaste ad. Wc also sec that eminent artist, Gretch Hansen, who has just completed the portrait of Peg Tcnold, Miss America of 195 5. With her is Jeanne Wilmot, designer for Vogue, Mademoiselle, and Harper’s Bazaar covers. Next wc eye lovely Lois Lambert, dean of a fashionable girls’ school, talking to the right honorable Rev. Paul Hanson and Russ Nelson, manager of Nelson’s Health Farm. The redhead over there looks familiar. She’s turning this way. Why, it’s Jeanne Linder who has a long list of best selling books to her credit. Coming into the auditorium wc are glad to sec Doris Lewis and Dorothy Wilkcrson. who now have a feature spot with Cab Calloway's band. I’m rather eager to sec the newly constructed fifth floor. Let's whiz up on the escalator and see what’s what. Here we go—here wc are! Behind the soda fountain wc find Bob Sawyer, Don Wide, and Jim Kicklcr, whipping up some weird concoctions as only they arc capable of doing. Bob is a traveling salesman, Don dawdles in dog doctoring and Jim—well, he’s still the ladies’ man. Lounging as only he can lounge, wc sec Bud Reagan, cab driver, etc. Chatting gayly with racetrack LEST WE • Every graduating class has its memories and we’ll remember our senior year as the year Germany was invaded, the Yanks were on their way to Tokyo, shoes were rationed to two pair a year, gas to two gallons per week, and the girls could find hardly a pair of decent rayon socks in town. Then who could forget Lawrence Tibbctt giving out with Don't Fence Me In, or Lauren Bacall and her If you need anything, just whistle. Everybody was singing Mairzy Doats,” I’m Beginning to Sec the Light, and that song Rum and Coca-Cola.” Frankie Sinatra was the idol of millions of the bobby soxers with dirty saddle shoes—remember? You were strictly on the beam with plaid shoestrings, an Eaton cap, a shortie coat, horn-rimmed specs, or an armful of silver dangle bracelets, while all the Eager Beavers wore coins in their loafers, knit ties and flashy suspenders, Flattop” heinies and zooty” sport coats. Everybody was saying huba-huba, unfalse, arc you kiddin’?, or yackity-yackity. That was the autumn that our football team had the highest scholastic average in all of Joe’s years of coaching at Central and came in second place in the city tournament, Noel Niell visited her old school, the C.I.C. formal was held at the Leamington (it rained that night), and the Dux rolled in money with their boxing matches. Betty Ann Jean Jane, you’re a pecker cheater. Of course that was said by O. K. Kuenstcr. Long remaining in our memories will be Mrs. Pink, her owner Chuck Stoner wc find Jo Petersen, fashion artist for Paramount. Jo recently won a million dollars betting on Chuck’s horse. Thunderbird, who was jockeyed by Bob Zumbcrgc. In the corner Harild Christianson, literary critic for the New York Sun, and Cliff Heir, President of the Bankers Assn., arc playing a wicked game of Chess. Wally Griffith, Olympic diving champ, is practicing some of his famous dives in the pool while Muriel Owen watches with pride. Wally Lutz, who is sports announcer for N. B. C., informs me that I can find some more of our class in Joe’s Gym—will you join me? Shooting baskets are Gene Blou, who has taken over John J. Anthony’s Court of Human Relations; Jerry Swccn, who teaches the course. How to Be a Conversationalist; Roy Hanson, athletic director at the U. of M.; Dr. Duckish Johnson, head of the Mayo Clinic, and Erick Wickstrom, coach at Notre Dame. I’m finding it rather difficult to dodge the basketball, so I’ll just have to postpone my talk with the boys. Whew! The time is flying and 1 haven’t seen half the kids as yet. Getting ready to leave arc George Mitchell, owner of many fashionable men’s stores; Norma Forsberg. secretary to architect Art Mackey; Mae Huie, Chinese Teacher at the U. of M.; Ruth Cook, vocalist with the famous band which is led by the king of trumpeters, Dave Nakamura, and Marvel Bracken, pilot for N. W. Airlines. Wc’rc sorry that wc didn’t get to sec you all, but there’ll be another reunion a long time from now, and everybody’ll be there. And so, so long until that date when we shall learn the other’s fate. FORGET banking, her bonds, and unpredictable ways; Mr. Mulligan saying That’s editorializing ; Mr. Weber’s witty (?) remarks in advisory; and Miss Ginsburg’s knowing smile (you know) about skipping. When wc returned to school in ’44. two of the favorite teachers were missing: Mr. Byron Emerson and Mr. Walter Rodgers, who left us for retirement.
