1- Surveys And the Winner is This year The Centralian distributed new and interesting survey questions to English classes throughout the depart- ment. We asked questions such as do you lick or bite an ice cream cone? The results this year proved that these questions appealed to the student body. Below are some of the responses that students made. Twinkle toes Every person at Central High School has distinct features right down to their toes. Have you ever thought about your toes? Why do we need five of these unsightly midget fingers? It has become a known fact that some people are walking around this campus with a longer second toe than their big toe. We wondered how many really do have longer second toes. Sur- prisingly 138 students who took this poll made it public knowledge that they have longer second toes. Meow! Many of us have often dreamed of flying through the air like a seagull or a dove. Others would love to be a rabbit, panther, cat, dog, wolt1 bear, and even a dolphin. Freedom, independence, strength. and speed are some of the qualities that people associate with these animals. When Students at Central were asked the question about what kind of animal they would like to be and why, a majority ot' them responded a cougar along with the previous animals. One person stated, Cougars are wild, adventurous, free, exciting, and not tame. The photograph repre- sents these characteristics. Would you really like to be this animal?
