From the warm days of early September to the balmy evenings of late May, school is the center of our lives. By following the clock, the Optimist seeks to bring back the mem- ories of all the days and nights of morning programs, labs and discussions, rehears- als, deadlines, breathtaking games, and gay parties-a cross section of student life at Central. . .

Although he is absent, we feel he is still a part of our school days. His leadership was especially evident within the various music organizations of which he was a part. His outstanding ability as concertmaster of the high school orchestra will long be recalled in the annals of music. It is to Dick' Eagle, classmate and friend, who left behind him a remembrance of his ready smile, cheerful companionship, and willing service, that we dedicate our 1951 Optimist. as a violinist gfffw - - ' ev J Q QWMQMQWKW fy, 3' f ', . fin M ff i:,Qf1 f ffffffffff ' 1 A by Cl, j rr fy J ' 3 .V ,.

In the morning before school-Mr. Snell, Miss Morck, Miss Mickelson, Mr. Strand in the office to check the schedule. The first Wednesday of every month we find our own Miss Morck presiding at the regular meeting of the Crookston Education Associa- tion. With Mr. Flom as recording secretary and treasurer, Miss Sivertson as corresponding secretary, and Miss Johnson and Mr. Barnes, senior and junior high representatives, respec- tively, this group has as its main objective to improve teacher education and professional standards. This year for the first time the Polk County Association was formed with Mr. Knox, president, Miss Dirks, secretary, and Miss Johnson, chairman of the constitution committee as Crookston's official representa- tives. Mr. Thorson and Mr. Wood both serve on Minnesota Education Association commit- tees. The annual Christmas program is pro- duced and directed by our faculty, and each year it seems to become more impressive. Not only students but faculty members, too, adopt fads. The current one is knitting, obviously carried through by the distaff side of the staff. Miss Hanson is the most faithful adherent, seconded by Miss Morck, Miss Miss Lunde, Mr. Wood, Miss Sivertson, and Miss Probstfield get I At a C. E.

It's graduation, and seniors glance back to memories of bygone days even as they glimpse the future ahead. They remember their But- tons and Bows party in tenth grade and the rebuilding of their sabotaged bonfire, the 1950 flood during prom and the music festival, the hectic moments trying to change scenes in the senior play. As they enter a troubled adult world, they trust in the courage of youth to carry them through to better days. Lawler, Barbara Ellingson, Beverly Larum. THE HONOR TEN Donald Lawler, Valedictorian 6.

Take a look at In senior high the faculty and the Student Council select a few from each class who they think are eligible for offices. These nomina- tions are then voted on by the students. The presidents of the classes automatically become members of the Student Council. To the presi- dent of the junior class also goes the distinction of leading the junior-senior prom! On the book beat with ninth. grade home room presidents, George Hendrickson, Leonne Gillespie, Betty Sullivan, and Connie Carlsen, as they browse after school in the library. the rising generation Junior high officers are elected in each home room for the semester or for the entire year according to the wishes of each particular home room. Their duties are taking charge of any home room meetings and making an- nouncements pertaining to 'class activities. For the first time the ninth grade is in Student Council with three home room representatives. Smiles light, future bright for these seventh and eighth grade home room presidents-Gary Zitzer, Tom Kiewel, Beverly Westerbergg Qstandingjg and Don Arch, Gail Randers, Phyllis Hanson, Karen Brown, Jean Ann Hanson Cseatedj. Merry juniors provide prom and a play How distillation works-Joan, John, Jean, Sheldon, Carol. With one year behind them and one more to go, juniors are carefree and gay. Their year has been filled with ups and down, but they take them in stride-the history themes on myself assigned by their adviser, Miss Johnsong the pie-flying creative days in Englishg the close decision on their class rings, struggling through talks in speech class, learn- ing to balance chemistry equations. For the first time they will present their play in the spring instead of in the fall. Then they'1l end the year by giving the seniors a gala time at prom.

Just how did the ninth graders get to the top of junior high? Well, maybe their position is due to their rollicking roller skating party, where Mr. Barnes led with the most falls. Per- haps the girls were boosted along the way when they submitted to the tortures of 'being initiated into G. A. A.. Or can it be the activi- ties in their classes-their travel Scrapbooks in general business, the one-act play, The Tryst- ing P1ace, 'which, incidentally, turned out to be a comedy and not a romantic play. Maybe Kenny Langbell and his clarinet have some- thing to do with their fame. Or perhaps they have taken a lesson from their Latin class, Ad astra per asperaf' Will the frosting be tasty?

The weather was cold, snow was still heavy, and Hood waters were high, but April was here, and the spring sport program was underway, track coached by Mr. Snell, golf by lVIr. Turner, and baseball by Mr. Fezler. When the combined district 31 and North Valley confer- ence meets took place on the Lincoln grounds, Crookston placed second in the district and third in the conference. This meet spelled finis for the North Valley conference, which has been abandoned. In the district four Pirates qualified for the region 8 meet by copping first or second places: Captain Don Bennett, first in the pole vault, Art Miller, first in the 220-yard dash and second in the broad jump, Roger Vind, second in the 440-yard dash and in the discusg and George Ramberg, second in the high hurdles. In the region meet Bennett qualified for the state meet by taking second place in the pole vault. Notable was the record of Art Miller, invited out for track because of the shortage of dash men and in practice for only two weeks. Roger Vind was honorary co-captain of the team. The golf team, Captain Everett Eide, Art Miller, Glenn Hansen, and Mylan Haugen, was the only district entry, won second honors in the region, and made a good showing in the state meet. Because of the breaking up of the North Valley conference, Centra1's victory in winning the conference meet gave the Pirates permanent possession of the traveling trophy. Glenn Hansen is the only member of the team in school for competition in 1951. Thinclads cop second place in district meet. Back row: B. Dillabough, J. Sampson, H. Steinbrink, W.

A new state regulation setting the tournament in June further limited time for practice and the number of games played. With only five seniors on the 1950 team, the 1951 squad will be mostly sophomore veterans. The only cross country team in the district and re- gion, Mr. Snel1's boys suffered from lack of competition. Don Peet led the team's runners in both the triangular and state meets with George Grondahl, co-captain for 1951, also outstanding.

Hansen, L Hegland Bamberg 1403 cuts back through Red Lake to score wzth blockmg assistance from Herrxck C535 and Pxlger C421 The kick off of the 1950 pigskin was surely a thriller for the Crookston fans when the young and inexperienced team of Coach Pat Turner and his assistant, Coach Bob Strand, startled the Warren Ponies by sending them home with a 20 to 0 defeat. With one win under their belts, the Pirates journeyed to Ada to hand the Vikings a loss, 26 to 7. Homecoming was next on the list and also one of the most important games of the season, but the Pirates came out on the short end by losing to the powerful East Side team, 20 to 6. Grafton, here we come! was the slogan for the club when they traveled to meet the Spoilers. However, because of too much Grafton strength, they were turned back with a loss of 13 to 0. Thief River provided by far one of the most exciting games of the season, with the score tied 7 to 7 at the end of the first quarter, 13 to 13 at the end of the half, and 21 to 13 at the end of the third quarter. The Central eleven dropped the game during the fourth quarter when they couldn't stop the Prowlers from scoring two more touchdowns. Winding up the football season, the Pirates played heads up ball to defeat the Red Lake Eagles by one touchdown. The climax of the game came when George Ramberg returned a kick off from his own 5-yard line for a 95-yard run to cinch the game by one touchdown. Only four returning lettermen, Jerry Hovet, Gene Pilger, George Ramberg, and Harley Tor- gerson, formed the nucleus of this year's squad. What was anticipated would be one of Centra1's poorest seasons resulted in a respectable show- ing and a final .500 rating. Twenty-two letter- men will return for the 1951 season, an encour- aging prospect for next year. INDIVIDUAL SCORES G. Ramberg ...,,.........,. 52 1 AF t B.

Through stress and strain . . . we strive to obtain knowledge and appreciation of many sports and physical activities. By commencing with fall foot- ball, soccer, and speedball, and continuing with indoor activities, such as volley-ball, tumbling, gymnastics, basketball, boxing, wrestling, rope climbing, low-organized games, skating, skiing, and finishing the curriculum with spring football, track and field, all boys are offered an oppor- tunity to develop physically, mentally, and emotionally. Inter-class basketball tournaments conclude the intramural pro- gram conducted Saturday mornings. In- dividual skills, co-operative teamwork, and self-testing are the basis of our well- rounded physical education program. Oops! Glenn pins Loren with a strong pin hold. 3 W... ...

Bob Caouette greatly aided the Pirate cause the later part of the season.

The dramatic urge . . . comes to all of us, for everyone likes a chance to strut and fret his hour upon the stage. There is a sort of inexpressible joy at being able to live intimately with grease paint, elaborate costumes and setting, and applause. The greatest part of Central's dramatic program is provided by the five plays-junior class, senior class, Christmas, contest, and speech class. To complement these productions there are the various divisions of declamation: extemporaneous speaking and original and memorized orations, in Miss Probstfield's chargeg dramatic and humorous interpretar tive and manuscript reading, coached by Miss Hansong and Mr. Snell's discussion group. Will they hear us? Rolly and John relate their tale of shipwreck experiences to Betty and Nancy in the speech class play, Safety First.

The plot revolves around the resentment of the girls toward German-born Erna. The two dormitory scenes, where the girls read aloud their letters, were especially ef- fective in portraying that feeling. The final scene restores Erna to the good graces of her classmates when it is discovered that Erna's brother had sac- rified his life rather 'than remain a Nazi servant. to see that the girls don't hitch the horses hind-side to.
