CHOIR When the choir members assembled last fall, they could not realize that this would be their greatest season. Under the very excellent direction of Mr. Schommer, the choir has certainly proved itself one of the best choirs Central has ever had- Singing the Messiah at Christmas-time, performing at outside engagements, presenting assemblies, and entering contests are just a few of the many things the choir has done this year. Members are chosen primarily for the r ability to sing, but a person must also be able to read music and harmonize well with others. Cooperation is a must, for there are often long, grueling hours of practice. Early morning rehearsals are a must, but the rehearsals have been rewarding. This year, for the first time, sophomores, juniors, and seniors are all in one combined choir. Our choir. Officers include Bill Rovick, president; Dave Mortrud, vice-president; Sharon Meixner, secretary, and Joyce Dahlberg, treasurer. Our choir has improved during the past years; and it is looking forward to the coming years as years in wh:ch, by means of music, they con provide enjoyment for the members of our school. 25

Witdorf, Wodrich BAND Po$$ by Room 400 early any morning, and you are sure to head the strains of band music. Yes, these are the early morning section rehearsals which are so very important in achieving the level of performance for which Central's band is known. Each year the members select a concert master, who is chosen on the basis of leadership and musical ability. This year the honor went to Bill Jackson. The band has certainly added pep and enthusiasm to many of our assemblies. Some members of our band also participated in the pep band. Our band is also versatile, as they proved by their spring concert. Under the very capable leadership of Mr. Miles, it was molded into a fine unit of about sixty members. For our Homecoming Game in the fall, the band was highly appreciated as they entertained the crowds during halftime. Their new routine showed skill and hard work as they rhythmically performed. This year. Central High School has indeed been fortunate to have such a fine band. It is hoped that the bonds of the future can carry on as fine a tradition. 24

CREATIVE WRITING CLUB Stemming as a direct outgrowth from the creative writing class of last year, the newly organized Creative Writing Club has gotten off to a flying start. Writing essays, descriptions, experiences, and even attempting to write stories for contests and publications have been among the attempted efforts. The club, which is open to any person who wishes to develop his writing abilitiy, is under the leadership of Mrs. Stassen, Linda Temple, and Jeannie Perrizo. ROW 1j J. Johnson, Epple, Cripps, Kinney.

They work together in close harmony to bring musical enjoyment to our school and community. The Central Singers leave a favorable impression wherever they go, and we hope that they will continue to do so. Members are chosen on th basis of musical ability by the remaining members from the preceding year.
