While traversing to and from the house we lived in for classes such as shop and glee club, we had constantly to be on the lookout for stock piles of brick, tiling, scaffolding, pip- ing canvasses, boards, and mud. These piles, however, slowly diminished as the materials were converted into walls, ceilings, floors, doors, stairways, rooms, cubbyholes, crooks and cran- nies, and as the interior began to take shape, we forgot our discomforts with the excitement of moving into this spacious building. the Closed Door? UPPER LEFT: The third floor warning was crude but served its purpose ade- quately, for the switches rested in peace. FAR LEFT: Once the hole was dug, the building went up with amazing speed.

BELOW: An airview of the high school, showing the building surrounded with stockpiles. 5

Appearing in the Pepster was the youngest Centralite, Peri Pirate, born Sep- tember 20 Two three-act comedies were successfully staged Juniors and seniors had their intelligence measured in several tests Asiatic flu sent many unfortunate victims to their beds Filled with school spirit, the speech classes went on the air with a program of their own and delightfully plastered the school with signs declaring their hearty wishes for football wins To climax our happiness, these light but quick boys fought their way to the confer- ence title.
