WELLWOOD Principal THAT SOMETHING which we call the Central Spirit is made up of those worthwhile school hab- its, customs and ideals which are passed along from each outgoing class to its successor, despite change in student body, faculty, school building, and its equipment. Without the preservation of these traditions Central High School would mean vastly less to its stu- dents and alumni. “Throughout the thirty - nine years of its existence, the Pros- pectus has been one constant fac- tor in the life of our school, bring- ing forward from year to year that tine thing which has made our school mean the same thing to us that it meant to pupils almost forty years ago. “It is a pleasure to me to see the 1937 Prospectus take its place as a link in this chain.” J. E. WELLWOOD MISS FLORENCE E. RIDDELL Assistant Principal Dean of Boys THE REAL Central High School is not a building of brick and stone. It is you and the thousands of other young men and women of the classes which have gone be- fore you. You have created a something which we call ‘The Cen- tral Spirit.’ I can wish nothing finer for you than that the Cen- tral Spirit may go with you in the days that are ahead. If it does, you will meet with courage the occa- sional defeat which all of us face and with modesty and good judg- ment, the many successes I am wishing for you.” FLORENCE E. RIDDELL MISS GRACE PINEL Dean of Girls THREE YEARS of fine fellow- ship have brought you to an- other crossroad and we who are your friends bid you God-speed. We hope that you will keep alive the joy of loyal service, the joy of true friendship, the joy of cour- age, and the joy of tasks well done; for. herein is found the very essence of the spirit of Central High School.” Pane Thirteen GRACE PINEL ENGLISH FACULTY — Seated: Grace Field, Lena Johnson; standing: Louise Sweitzer, Ruth Pamudee, Margaret Hodgins, Marie Christoph erson, Bess Morrison, Lucille Gale, Ruth Atkins, Jean Blocher, Adda Babcock, Alma Mattheivson, Virginia Roberson, Cathryn Lee. The English Department '“THE ENGLISH department lends itself, perhaps more than any other, to the development of cul- tural and intellectual enjoyment. This department offers a varied course of study. During the four semesters of required English the time is equally divided between grammar and literature. The gram- mar courses given students an op- portunity to vent their original- ity through themes, essays, and short stories. The literature study consists of reading classical plays and short stories in the sophomore year and American Literature in the Junior year. American Literature is studied from the first fragments of our national works down to the vastly different compositions of our comtemporary authors. This course lends an immeasurable amount to our cultural background. In the senior year, English is an elective, chosen principally by those planning to attend college. The first semester is devoted to English Literature, and as in American Literature the works are studied from the first written manuscripts down to such modern day masterpieces as those of George Bernard Shaw. For the last half of the Senior term a new course. Senior English, has been in- stituted this year. It is invaluable to College Pre- paratory students, because it offers such a thorough and instructive preparation for college rhetoric. Another course which is a rather recent innovation in Central is Modern Literature. It affords an excellent opportunity to become acquainted with the writers of to- day. Basic English also has been added this year as a complete re- view of grammar and other topics that will prove to be essential in the business world. Pase Fourteen SOCIAL SCIENCE TEACHERS—Standing: Clement Rowe, Carroll Clark, Jack Howe, Mable Stoddard. Seated: Mildred Hodges, Clara Roe, Louise Armstrong, Ruth Henry, Mae Carson, Florence Roberts. The Social Science Department THE SOCIAL SCIENCE depart- ment offers Early European History I and II. Modern History I and II, United States History I and II, economics, and civics, and modern social problems. The aims of the department are: to show the relationship between present condi- tions and those of former times; to show how events of the past have set the stage for present social and economic conditions; to develop a respect for good government, to gain an understanding of the prob- lems of other nations. Early European history and mod- ern history give the record of mankind from the story of primi- tive civilization to the present com- plex structure of civilization. All students either elect or are iequired by the nature of their choice of curriculum to take Unit- ed States history, or the course in civics. Thus, all students gain a thorough foundation in the de- velopment of government and learn to appreciate the obliga- tions and duties of citizenship. A study of local, state and national affairs is given and forms a broad- er viewpoint for international af- fairs. Modern social problems is a course of two years existence in Central, and has found considerable interest among seniors this year. The course is set up for the study of social conditions and institutions and human reaction to them. The course features tours of interest points connected with certain topics, movies and discussions. The class has sponsored several open forums at which civic leaders spoke. The department as a whole strives to show the past in such a way that a student may better interpret the present. l’acc Fifteen COMMERCIAL TEACHERS Standing: Clyde Barnett, Leslie Cun- ningham, Ruth Woolson, Alva Olson, Hugh BeUairs, Loraine Bailey, Blanche Young, Howard Scahill, Feme Williams, W. J. Russell; seated: Frances Spence, Nellie Ketzler, Isabelle Frankhauser, Edna Redd. The Commercial Department ■ THE COURSES offered by the Commercial Department are divided into two parts: The Com- mercial I Curriculum which pre- pares students for clerical or sec- retarial positions, and the Com- mercial II Curriculum which pre- pares students for clerical or book- keeping work. In his Sophomore year, every student in either curriculum must take commercial arithmetic, a two- semcsler course, covering basic arithmetic; common business prac- tices: and business vocabulary. In the Junior year, students begin to specialize. Commercial I students take first year typing, which teaches them to set up letters and to attain a speed of at least 30 words per minute, and first year shorthand including the 'fundamentals of shorthand with a goal of sixty words per minute. For a Senior, the Commercial I course requires one more year ol both typing and shorthand. The advanced typing course includes office projects in the typing of business forms, accurate transcrip- tion of shorthand notes, operation of the mimeograph and adding machine, office procedure, filing and gaining a speed of 50 words per minute. At the completion of the second year shorthand course, the student should be able to take advance dictation accurately at a speed of from one hundred to one hundred twenty words per minute. The commercial department also awards Gregg certificates to short- hand students who accurately take dictation at the rate of 60, 80, 100 and 120 words per minute. Also as a part of his Senior year, the stenographic student is strongly urged to take commercial activity which is valuable experience work- ing in school office or working for teachers and supervisors. All commercial students are re- quired to take at least one year of bookkeeping. In this year, they learn the fundamentals of book- keeping and the operation of a single proprietorship. Commercial II students continue with a second year of bookkeeping which in- includes the procedure for a mer- cantile corporation, simple ac- counting problems and financial statements. Besides these general require- ments there are a number of one semester electives which stress practicality. Calculating offers an opportunity to learn the use of the comptometer which does by machine all the problems which would arise in an office. A second elective, commercial law, covers most of the legal knowledge that a business person should know in- cluding contracts, negotiable pa- per. bailments, real estate and fire insurance. Lawyers and prosecut- ing attorneys have attended these (lasses. The commercial department also conducts courses in sales and advertising open to students in any curriculum who are interested in the work. Page Sixteen FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHERS—Standing: Nellie Stobie, Helen Kellar, Mildred Laley, Florence Laley, Adda Babcock, Mabel Pinel; seated: Elsa Dietrich. Henrietta Lewis, Mary Seymour. The Foreign Language Department nPHE FOREIGN LANGUAGE department includes in the curriculum a variety of subjects: Latin, French, German and Span- ish. The basic plan of study of each language consists of the translation of short stories and books, gram- mar study, and comparison of the customs, people, and history of for- eign countries with America. Foreign Language students de- rive many benefits from their course of study: an excellent grammatical foundation; the abil- ity to read the language with un- derstanding and interest; an un- derstanding of the spoken lan- guage, with limitations; and a knowledge of the life and tradi- tions of foreign peoples. The principles of foreign life and governments gives a basis for dis- cussion. They may also influence students in their daily life, and may stimulate further reading about the country under study. When information of a foreign tongue is applied to the English language, students invariably find that their knowledge of English grammatical constructions is in- creased as well as their vocabu- lary.

J. Wheater, E. R. Jones. The Science Department CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL’S Science department offers to ambitious and knowledge-seeking students excellent and extensive means whereby they may delve and probe into the mysteries and vagaries of our great scientific world. Physics is found to be one of the most intriguing subjects offered to them by this department. Physics is a study of mechanics, sound, light, heat, magnetism and elec- tricity. Chemistry deals with chemical changes. A thorough study is made of many elements, com- pounds and mixtures. The actual composition of every-day materials is a knowledge most valuable. Synthetic processes that are being developed in this modern world are also studied. The biology course includes a study of plant and animal life. Field trips, living specimens and detailed microscopic work add to the interest of the subject. Other scientific courses offered are geology, physiology, and phy- siography. Modern Science is a general course in science including many topics of other sciences. The science department aims to develop a scientific attitude in stu- dents. Each science stresses the practical application of all knowl- edge gained to this modern world. ) Page Eighteen INDUSTRIAL ARTS TEACHERS- Ralph Carpenter, Robert Starmer, Sul ho Nurmi, John Short, Edgar Dobler, Dorr Snoyenbos, John Seaton, Francis Smith, Harold Mumby, Keith Entrekin. The Industrial Arts Department THE INDUSTRIAL ARTS course in Central High School offers Architectural Drawing, Machine Drawing, Machine Shop. Wood- work, and Printing, for the stu- dents especially interested in me- chanics. Shop Mathematics I and II is required of all students who select the Industrial Arts course. The course accustoms the students to the mathematical computation used in a shop class. The improve- ment made by students throughout the course helps to facilitate their work in the Industrial Arts Curric- ulum. Architectural Drawing is to give the students an adequate amount of drawing technique. Its aim is to develop a finer sense of good achi- tecture in the student. Machine Drawing is an impor- tant means by which the power of visualization and the drawing of machines in operation is realized. This course sends the students forth with a basic knowledge of machine in operation. The Machine Shop course has been carefullv planned for students who are prospective machinists or mechanical engineers. It also helps form a plan of general education for the knowledge of machinery and machine manufacturing. This also provides the student with an introduction to the trade, and teaches him the operation and con- struction of machines and different types of tools used. The aims in the course of Wood- working are divided into two groups. For those who are inter- ested in the general knowledge of woodworking. and those who choose to make this their speciali- zation. The woodwork shop is greatly compared to that of the chemistry or Physic laboratory for the fact that the students has an opportunity to express and work out their own ideas, and to co-op- erate with fellow students. The Printing course not only serves as a course inguidance and appreciation, but it also provides an excellent prospect in trade ap- prentices with a foundation for ad- vancement. Another important course offer- ed by Central is the technical group. This has been planned for students financially unable to at- tend college. The course prepares the student to be able to meet the rising demands of industry for skilled labor. If the student should make a specialty of one subject while studing in the technical group, he may enter the factory with the seniority of one year’s apprenticeship. Puk - Nineteen HOME ECONOMIC TEACHERS—Eleanor na Carr, Hazel Hoyt, Luella Harris. Carah, Dorothy Stone, Ed- The Home Economics Department Home Economics plays an impor- tant part in education when it is considered that training in home- making will be invaluable to most girls. The food classes in the Home Economics department seek to aid students in the management of a home, shopping wisely for food, combining foods into nutritious and attractive meals. Maintenance of high health standards, instruc- tion in a hostess’ duties, and good table manners become important objectives. A unique class is a foods class for boys. A need for this has been recognized in Central due to the importance of teaching boys good home management and wise in- come spending as well as prepar- ing them for certain jobs requir- ing culinary experience. In the clothing classes girls are given help in the selection of suit- able clothes, taking into consider- ation color, design, style and qual- ity. The students make many arti- cles of wearing apparel as they become more advanced. Page Twenty FINE ARTS FACULTY — Seated: Maude Stewart Beagle, Helen Hardy Brown; standing: Franklyn S. Weddle, Agnes Jo Starmer, Walter II. Bloch. The Fine Arts Department HE AIMS of Art Education are to provide the student with the fundamentals so that he may represent objects about him easily and accurately; to stimulate and develop imagination through crea- tive work; and to develop an ap- preciation of fine arts in every day life. After a student has learned the fundamentals of art, he is free to work in any medium he chooses —charcoal, pastels, water colors, oils, and sculpturing. A survey of the music depart- ment of Central High school will show that both musicianship and appreciation of music are stressed. Actual participation in a music activity is one of the best means to enjoy music and to build up a finer appreciation as it is to dis- cover its secrets. Students who are interested in instrumental music become members of the band or orchestra. In both these subjects there are first and second organ- izations for preliminary and ad- vanced training. Those vocally in- clined seek membership in the a eappella choir or the opera chorus. For the appreciator as well as the scholar, courses are offered in har- mony and music literature. In drama classes there are many points stressed. The periods of drama, modern plays and play- wrights, history of drama and a study of famous works are all part of the course. In addition to this instruction in acting, voice train- ing, gestures is also offered. In public speaking classes the train- ing of debaters as well as prepara- tion in such speech projects as oratory, extempore, and declama- tion. The chief aim of this division of the Fine Arts department is to give poise and self-confidence to the student. Page Twenty-One MATHEMATICS TEACHERS—Standing: Florence Bishop, Ruth Reik, Marie Hastings, Bessie Hemingway, Vera Shrigley; seated: Mildred Fitch, I della Waters. The Mathematics Department THE COURSES offered by the A Mathematics department are designed for those especially inter- ested in mathematics or those who intend to prepare for college, en- gineering, or scientific work. Mathematics courses develop good study habits, the power of analysis, thinking ability, and accuracy. The subjects given in this de- partment are Plane Geometry, a two-semester course, Solid Geom- etry, and Algebra III, one-semester subjects. Algebra IV, offered dur- ing the first half of every school year, and Trigonometry given dur- ing the last part of each term. Plane Geometry is the study of the properties of lines, angles, rec- tilinear figures, and circles. Solid Geometry cove re the properties of lines, planes, and angles in space, polyhedrons, cylinders, cones, and the sphere. Solving problems by the use of unknowns, also equa- tions and their uses are studied in Algebra III and IV. Trigono- metry includes indirect measure- ment, the demonstration of rela- tionships by graphs, and a study of the relationships of variables. Most college preparatory stu- dents take one year of plane geometry, but engineering students are required to take all the mathe- matics courses given. Pre-medical students are advised to continue their study beyond plane geometry. Commercial arithmetic is re- quired for a commercial course, giving an excellent foundation for the basic arithmetic used in the business world. Page Twenty-T vo LIBRARY STAFF — Macie Parker, June Pitts, Pearl Adams. The Library Staff and the Office Staff HTHE SERVICE of the library to students of Central High school is invaluable, and its facilities are available to every student. The library is particularly proud of its efficient staff of student as- sistants. Much of the routine work of the library is delegated to them, and the staff has proven its ability to meet the responsibilities that have been delegated to them. The student library work is an excel- lent way for a student with high scholastic standings to learn to de- velop a sense of responsibility, as well as to receive a practical train- ing course in using a valuable tool. The library staff this year was composed of more than 30 mem- bers. Miss Macie Parker is the head librarian for both the Junior col- lege and Central High school li- braries. Miss June Pitts is the as- sistant librarian for the Central library, while Mrs. Adams is the assistant librarian in the Junior College library. IN THE general office, Mrs. C. Perim Macgregor is the regis- trar and general secretary. Mrs. Florence Leach has charge of all financial affairs pertaining to the high school. Mrs. Tina Christenson is secre- tary to Mr. Wellwood in addition to her duties as attendance secre- tary. OFFICE STAFF—Mrs. Leach, Mrs. Macgregor. Page Twenty-Three The Physical Education Department THE PHYSICAL EDUCATION 1 department offers a variety of sports, work in the fundamentals of games, and physical development for the girls of Central High school. In the gymnasium classes the girls are divided into squads with a floor captain and squad leaders who aid in supervising the class work. Marching, calisthenics, and dances are taught for the development of body poise, good posture, and graceful rhythmic movements. Intramural games are held in hockey, basketball, tennis, baseball, bowling, and volleyball. For excel- lence in these sports as well as hik- ing, swimming, fencing, archery, golf, and horseback-riding, points are awarded toward the school let- ter. Earning a letter not only gives a means of recreation but also a sense of responsibility and a basis of competition for all participants. As a result of interest shown in various sports. extra-curricular clubs have been formed. The boys’ Physical Education de- partment offers a program of many activities to accomplish its three- fold purpose: physical development of boys, creation of an interest in and understanding of the major sports outside of school life, and the furtherance of co-operation and good discipline among boys. The year’s program includes touch football, marching, calis- thenics. basketball, wrestling, box- ing, baseball, track and swimming. Both the boys’ and the girls’ de- partments not only produce strong- er and more physically fit youths, but develop the important qualities of leadership, endurance, courage, co-operation and good sportsman- ship.

Page Twenty-Six The Senior Board of Directors nnHE SENIOR board of directors is by far the most active of the representative bodies of the three classes due to the many activities for which the senior board is re- sponsible. It is the duty of the rep- resentatives to plan for such func- tions as the senior-junior party, the senior play, the honors assembly, the senior dinner dance, baccalau- reate service and the commence- ment exercises. It was decided to have boys serve as ushers instead of girls as here- tofore. Ralph Snyder was appoint- ed chairman of the tickets; other appointments were Louis McNew, ushers; Betty Earle, programs and Gerard Melancon, publicity. Jane Kelly was appointed chair- man of the commencement exer- cises, and Margaret O’Sullivan was given charge of the baccalaureate service. In preparation for the dinner dance, the following placements were made: Lila Foster, decora- tions; Jack Sarvis, tickets; Doris McGlone, patrons and patronesses: Arlene Aurand and Luther Bridg- man, program, and Marjorie Din- ning and Eleanor Haskill, orches- tra. Many of the committee as- sistants were chosen from the senior class. The presiding officers of the board were the senior officers: Clifford James, president; Eileen Cross, vice president; Jane Kelly, secretary, and Betty Earle, treas- urer. Class sponsors were Miss Ruth Parmalee and Miss Mildred Hodges. The Junior Board of Directors THE JUNIOR CLASS added to its laurels this year through its activities and its individual members. This year “the high standard of accomplishment and activity was faithfully maintained under the able guidance of Peter Panos, president: Ruth Hammond, vice president; Betty Harris, sec- retary, and Don Jones, treasurer. The Junior Board of Directors, the representative body of the class, was given credit for much of the planning for the Junior play, “Pollyanna. Tickets, publicity and ushers were efficiently managed by student heads of committees. The Junior-Senior party was one of the brightest spots of the school social calendar. Carrying out a sports theme, the ingenious juniors built a clubhouse in a cherry orch- ard as part of the decoration scheme. Many students appeared at the dance in sport clothes as they had been asked to do. The class sponsors, Howard Scahill and Miss Dorothy Stone, gave splendid assistance in the ac- tivities of the year. The Sophomore Board of Directors A LTHOUGH new in the school. the Sophomores swung into the political life of Central and elected a corps of efficient and promising officers. Leon McNew, president; Margaret Ressler, vice president; Jayne Stone, secretary, and Dorothy Zandi, treasurer, were chosen to guide the class through the maze of obstacles in the path of the infant class. The Sophomore Board of Direc- tors is the governing body of the class and is composed of one repre- sentative from each group. The board is presided over by the offi- cers, at whose order it convenes at such occasions when any activity is to be planned or problem decided that directly concerns the Sopho- more class. Credit is due the board for the two successful parties sponsored and arranged for by the class of ’39. The faculty sponsors of the class are Miss Mabel Pinel and Miss Elsa Dietrich.

It is the foundation of all activities and organizations, supply- ing both finances and support to the various events on the school calendar. Every student who is a member is assured of an active and enjoy- able life while at Central. A Stu- dent Union member is entitled to the privileges of voting in all school and class elections, admis- sion to Student Union parties, dramatic events, and all athletic contests held at home; in addition to this, the privilege of represent- ing the school in interscholastic events. The Student Union also brings to the entire school outside talent in the formal assemblies held each year, and sponsors the Arrow Head which is brought to the students through their membership. The Student council is the gov- erning body of the Student Union, and as such unifies the various activities, enforces the principles of the constitution, and is the closest tie to the wishes and the activities of the student body. Through two constitutional amendments which were passed in the last meeting of the council in 1936, the election of council mem- bers was somewhat changed this year. In order to have a more ef- ficient and active group, it was found advisable to decrease the size of the council to a more wieldy group, and a plan was de- vised whereby the council would l e as representative as before. Twelve representatives were al- lotted to each class, three to be chosen from the college prepara- tory curriculum, three from the STUDENT UNION OFFICERS —First row: Fred Briggs, Ted Me- Logan; second row: Eleanor Cuth- bertson, Margaret Carrier. commercial curriculum, two from the general curriculum, and one from the music, industrial arts, and home economics curriculums. These members were elected at the same time as the class and Student Union elections. The council was presided over by the Student Union president. Fred Briggs; vice president, Ted Mc- Logan; recording secretary, Elea- nor Cuthbertson, and correspond- ing secretary, Margaret Carrier. Much of the work of the coun- cil is accomplished by four com- missions: Finance, activities, gen- eral welfare, and social. The finance commission of the Student Union, with David Magee as chairman, budgeted the Student Union fund. Other members of the commission are Ruth Best, John DeCamp and Leon McNew. John Nakamura as chairman of the social commission, with Doris Girod. Ivan Jones, Martha Mon- tague, Dorothy Goodley, Herbert Stoutenburg and Lila Foster, plan- ned and decorated for all Student Union parties. Under the leadership of Doris McGlone, the general welfare commission, as the name implies, supervised general welfare. Other members are Jean Baker, Peter Panos, Annice French and Marion Conde. The activities commission char- tered all clubs and oversees general activities. The chairman. Louis Mc- New, is assisted by Beryl Frost. Betty Earle, Willard Munson and Jack Omick. Miss Grace Pinel is the sponsor of the Student Council. Page Twenty-Eight «I 4 SKIPPERS Seated: John E. Wellwood; standing: Quentin Graham, Herbert Stoutenburg, Peter Panos, Clifford Jaynes, David Magee, Fred Briggs, Leon McNew. The Skippers • THE SKIPPERS club was or- A ganized under the sponsorship of John E. Wellwood, principal, for the purpose of creating and maintaining desirable traditions throughout the school. It is com- posed of certain leading members of the school’s major groups. Being an honorary organization, the club holds only two meetings a year; the first of which ap- peared in the form of a banquet given by Mr. Wellwood. At this meeting all new members were taken in and the history and con- stitution of the club was discussed. It was decided that the plaque in the library, upon which former and present members’ names are recorded, should be brought up to date. In the latter part of May, the members were hosts to a din- ner for Mr. Wellwood. The club is made up of the fol- lowing: Fred Briggs, student un- ion president; Cliff James, senior president: Peter Panos, junior president; Leon McNew. sopho- more president; David Magee, former junior president; Wood- row Smithson, former sophomore president; Herbert Stoutenburg, managing editor of the Prospec- tus, and Gale Townsend, editor-in- chief of the Arrow Head. Commanderins THE COMMANDERINS, spon- sored by Miss Grace Pinel, is an association of the highest rank- ing girl leaders of Central. Its pur- pose is to discuss the problems and regulations of the school with the administration. The non-officer system is employed. The officers of each class, the highest ranking journalists on the publications, the presidents of the Girl Reserves, the Girls’ Athletic Association, and the Thalian Honorary Literary Club automatically become members. Since the club is an honorary organization. the members had only two activities for the year. Commanderins ushered at the Op- era and sold candv at the Pow- Wow. The members are Doris McGlone Eileen Cross, Betty Jane Robinson. Jane Kelly. Arline Gavette. Elean- or Cuthbertson, Catherine Cuth- bertson. Betty Earle. Marion Con- de. Jane Karr, Barbara Strait.

Hawley; Row 2: Ralph Snyder, Helen Stevenson, Rodney Briggs, Bill Siegel, Douglar Woody. The 1936-37 Debate Season at Central THE QUESTION debated for the season 1936-1937 was: “Re- solved: All electric utilities should be governmentally owned and op- erated. The class for the first semester of this year was the most success- ful and the largest which has ever been held at Central. In this group was the most available ability but least experience in the history of Central's debate classes. Three de- baters stood out so prominently that they took part in all the state and city league debates. There were Margaret O’Sullivan, Louis McNew, and David Magee. Three slightly less experienced debaters who participated in Valley League debates were Ralph Snyder, Frank- lin Brewer and Richard Shupe. Central’s team had the most strenuous program of practice de- bates and tournaments, for more than one hundred debates were held with other schools. In the River Rouge tournament in the fall 24 debaters participated: 12 were in the Pontiac and Ann Arbor tourna- ments. and 27 in Central’s third an- nual tournament. In addition to this program many trips were made to various cities for practices. While these trips did not affect the team’s standing in the state or city leagues they pro- vided an invaluable background for sophomores and juniors who will return next year. The Valley League debates were non-decision or audience decision this season. In these Central met each Valley League school twice, while several of these contests were held on neutral ground. With this type of contest a Valley League championship was not pos- sible. Therefore, each of the schools participated in the regular state league series of debates. In the state league series Cen- tral’s experienced team lost the first debate on the negative side of the question to Plymouth by a two-to-one decision. In the second debate, on the same side of the question, Central drew Jackson, and the team did one of the finest pieces of work and won. The In- dians added to their laurels by winning both debates on the Af- firmative side of the question. First they defeated Bay City unani- mouslyly and then won the decision from Lansing Eastern. As a result Central won 13 points and qualified for the state elimina- tion series. In this series the first opponent was Howell which brought a well coached trio of boys to Flint and gave the more experi- enced Indians a surprise. After one of the closest debates of the season. Howell was awarded a two to one decision over the home team. The most laudable part of this year’s record is, that for the first time Central won the City cham- pionship. The Indian trio was never better than against Northern. The first debate was lost when in an extremely close battle a two-to-one decision was awarded to the Vi- kings. In the debate Central upheld the negative in Northern’s audi- torium. The second debate was held on Jan. 8. in Central’s auditorium, after one week of intensive study, with Central upholding the affima- tive. It resulted in a very close con- test. However, the decision was awarded to the Indians by a two- to-one vote. Two weeks later the third and final debate was held on neutral territory. Sides were chosen by the coaches, H. E. Hawley and Carney Smith, and winning the toss Cen- tral chose the negative. Excellent work was done by both schools, but the decision was given to Central by all three judges. As a result of winning the City Cham- pionship, Central was awarded for one year the W. W. Blackney tro- phy which has been presented by former congressman, William W. Blackney. Two more successive victories will give permanent pos- session of this beautiful trophy. An interesting feature of the Northern-Central debates is that during the last three years each school has won four debates and has received the same number of votes in the city series. A wealth of material is in pros- pect for the next year’s team, for several outstanding sophomores and juniors should be on hand next September. Special mention should be made to the following four peo- Continued on Page 31 ' t Page Thirty FORENSIC CONTEST WINNERS—Harold E. Hawley, coach; Wil- liam Siegel, Ellison Straley, Ralph Snyder. The Winners of the Forensic Contests THE ANNUAL Forensic Contest in Central High school was held in March to determine the repre- sentatives in the sub-district con- test. The declamation contest was open to Sophomores of the three public speaking classes. Although several promising declai m e r s participated, a close contest be- tween four students resulted in a second and final elimination. In this William Siegel won first place with Leon McNew, Rodney Briggs, and Charles Bragman fol- lowing closely in order of excel- lence. Only two contestants, El- lison Straley and Vivian Richter, wrote and delivered orations. Of these. Ellison Straley was awarded the decision with his oration “The American Way.” In extempore speaking Ralph Snyder was award- ed first place for his outstanding speech on “Social Security in Foreign Nations.” Douglas Woody placed second. Central High school has ac- cumulated a notable record in the sub-district contests in which the schools of Saginaw Valley league and Ann Arbor compete. During the last four years. Central has captured five out of 12 of the first places awarded, while other schools have received no more than two first places during this same period of time. Central speakers have excelled more times in declamation than in other fields, having taken three out of four first places. In this year’s sub-district con- test Central took one first place and two second places when Wil- liam Siegel, Ellison Straley, and Ralph Snyder represented the schol. William Siegel, with his declamation “Intolerance Still,” placed first, while Ellison Straley placed second in oratory. After a tie in points with the first place winner in extempore speaking, Ralph Snyder was awarded second place by the coach-judge system. The Debate Season Continued from Rage 30 pie who won their letters by par- ticipating in two Valley League de- bates: Helen Stevenson and Doug- las Woody (Juniors); and Rodnev Briggs and William Siegel (Sopho- mores). Although silent, a fourth mem- ber, Ambrose, a tiny alligator, was on the team this year. During the Christmas vacation David Magee brought Ambrose back from Flor- ida with him. He made his debut as a debater in the second North- ern-Central debate, and the team attributed a large measure of their success to Ambrose’s presence. The following debate with Bay City found Ambrose in his usual place, within a box and in the drawer of the desk on the stage. When a unanimous decision was given to Central on this occasion, the power of Ambrose’s luck was firmly es- tablished. However, it seemed that the life of a debate mascot was too much for Ambrose, for shortly after the Bay City debate he died. This caused a great deal of consterna- tion but it was finally decided that Amby” should be stuffed and con- tinue to accompany the Indian trio. And although Ambrose was dead, his spirit stayed with the team and brought them two more victories. A great measure of the squad’s success this year has been due to the untiring efforts of Coach Har- old E. Hawley.

In addition to this, the an- nual Screech, edited by David Sil- bar. combined the features of news and slander to attract Centralites. Although the positions of editor and managing editor remained per- manent, the other departmental heads were frequently changed to permit a great number of students to receive the benefits of active journalism. The office of business manager was held first by John Nakamura; during the remainder of the first semester and the sec- ond semester the paper was man- aged by Herbert Stoutenburg. The advertising department changed successively to the supervision of John Nakamura. Helen Balshaw and Mary Quinn. Feature editors at various times were Bob Sheppard.

Central Hi-Y nPHE CENTRAL Mohawk Hi-Y, under the sponsorship of Mr. Ralph Misner, is one of Flint Cen- tral’s most active clubs. During the football season the Hi-Y sold souvenir pins. When it became colder and halls became crowded, the club sponsored a noon hour game room. The Central Hi-Y and the Northern Hi-Y held a joint meeting at Mr. Fenton R. Mc- Creery’s house; this meeting was one of the most interesting held since the members looked at old relics which Mr. McCreery had col- lected on his many travels. Again the Central and Northern clubs co- operated when they had charge of the annual go to church night. Sev- eral of the informal assemblies were also sponsored by the Hi-Y.

Chemistry Club THE CHEMISTRY CLUB was first organized for the benefit of students interested in further experimentation in chemistry. The club has more than filled its pur- pose and has attracted to each meeting an enthusiastic and inter- ested group. At the beginning of the year it was decided that only the necessary officers be elected since the prime function of the club was active participation in demonstrations. The officers elect- ed were: President, Bill Abraham: reporter, Ed Drury. During the first semester new members were properly and informally initiated. Several trips were taken to points of interest. The club visited the Flint water works. MacDonald Dairy and the General Motors In- stitute of Technology. The organ- ization heard lectures by Dr. Shroyer of Flint Junior college and Professor Tobias of the G. M. Tech. The club members were all in- terested in giving and discussing demonstrations.

Pre-Medics Club THE purpose of the Pre-Medics club, which is sponsored by- Thomas Gwyn, is to give informa- tion to students who are planning to enter into the fields of medicine. dentistry, pharmacy and nursing. The program for the year was planned so that speakers represent- ing these professions have spoken to the members at different times. The club visited St. Joseph’s hos- pital and Hurley hospital to gain knowledge of the actual practice of medicine and nursing. An advisory course was given as to the possible cost, selection of schools, and the required subjects to be taken to enter one of these professions. Students were also in- formed regarding the advantage and disadvantages of various pro- fessions. The officers of the club are: president. Helen Johnson, and sec- retary-treasurer, Barbara Straight. Members of the club are: Mary Blake, Robert Borie, Margaret Brown. June Densmore, Blanche Dodds, Eleanor Herptek, Alice Hig- ley, Helen Johnson, Keith McKit- rick, Earl Miller. Lucretia Phillips.

THE BELLE MASQUE Honor- ary Dramatic society of Cen- tral was organized to associate students who have done outstand- ing work in the field of dramatics. “To promote better drama in the home and community,” the motto of the club, has been very well fulfilled this year. Some of the outstanding fea- tures of this year were sponsoring a Little Theatre at the Pow-Wow, the exchanging of programs with Lapeer High school, and the pro- ducing of scenes from Shakespear- ean plays in the Mott Outdoor theatre. The members also ushered for the Kaleidoscope and assisted in make-up work for the opera. The meetings of the club, held regularly every two weeks, were very interesting and well planned. In the fall one meeting was in the form of a banquet at which time pledges were formally initiated. New members were once more ad- mitted after the junior play. Mr. Casswell. a man experienced in many fields of dramatics, was a guest speaker. Attic Players THIS drama club is so named because their workshop is in the tower of the school. Anyone in Central who is interested in dra- matics may become a member. During the year this organiza- tion has sent eight different one- act plays to 20 engagements. At Christmas time baskets were given by the club to several needy fam- ilies. One meeting was held at the Flint Art institute. The Attic Players also sponsored the Major Bowes’ program at the Pow Wow and an act in the Kaleidoscope. Their activities were brought to a close with the Annual Attic Clean- up at which several of the best plays were given. The sponsor of this club is Mrs. Maude Stewart Beagle and the of- ficers were Walton Adams, presi- dent; Evelyn McCredie, vice presi- dent; Magdalene Lewis, secretary; Duane Perry, business manager; Bill McKellar, assistant business manager.

The Thalians THE THALIAN Honorary Liter- A ary club has the distinction of being the oldest club in school, being established in 1919. Its pur- pose is to promote an appreciation of good literature. The require- ments for membership are high scholarship and good citizenship. For the first semester the fol- lowing officers were elected: Pres- ident. Doris McGlone; vice presi- dent. Marion Conde; recording secretary, Helen Johnson; corres- ponding secretary. Margaret O'Sul- livan, and treasurer, Marjorie Dean. New members were wel- comed into the club by an infor- mal initiation with the traditional pledge and candle lighting cere- mony. It was decided that each meet- ing be devoted to a discussion of one class of literature; represen- tative pieces of work would be read by members who were inter- ested. The novels, poetry, short stories, and plays were listed as topics for the year. As guests of the Northern Thes- pians, the club heard a book re- view by the Rev. Herbert C. Gans. In the second semester election, the officers chosen were: Presi- dent, Marion Conde; vice presi- dent. Marion Cowing; recording secretary. Betty Applegate; cor- responding secretary. Marjorie Bettesworth. and treasurer, Max- ine Good. The most important activity of the year was the annual “Open Door at which time parents and friends were invited.

Alpha Rho Tau ’ THIS ALPHA RHO TAU was ■ organized so that students might learn more about the de- velopment and study of art. The requirement for membership is an original piece of work which is judged by a competent committee. Also, members are required to hand in each month an original drawing or other art piece. Outstanding meetings of the year included a trip to the Buick Art department, a tea. and a meeting at which Basil Hawkins of the Flint Art institute spoke. The club was responsible for the commencement of the drive for flood relief funds. The year was climaxed by an outdoor social event.

The F Club ALL GIRLS who have earned the 500 points which entitles them to their first letter are ad- mitted to the “F” club. The sec- ond “F is had by 750 points, the third 1,000 points, and the fourth 1,300 points. The meetings are held monthly at the homes of members or at the home of one of the sponsors. Miss Louise Williams and Miss Mildred Bunce. One meeting each semester is devoted to initiating the new mem- bers. Once a year a joint banquet with Northern is held. The type of banquet alternates between hockey and basketball. This year the Northern “N” club entertained the “F” club at a hockey banquet at which time the letters were award- ed to girls of both schools. In March Central girls held their basketball banquet, and again let- ters were awarded. The other meetings of the year are social gatherings at which the girls be- come better acquainted, and a common interest in sports prevails. The real business of the club is the earning of letters. This year it was decided to have a pin to desig- nate the members. It is an at- tractive yellow gold “F.” At the first meeting of the year the following officers were chosen: President, Frances Ireland; vice president, Margaret Cook; secre- tary, Beth Rockafellow, and treas- urer, Reginalda Fiori. The Equestriennes THE Equestrienne club of Cen- tral is a very unique one in public schools. It is said to be one of very few in existence in United States. Every week, under the direction of Miss Mildred Hodges, the Eques- triennes rode at Crothroth stables. Programs were planned for the rest of the meetings to interest the horseback riders. Officers elected for the year are: Anne Doyle, president; Peggy Brown, secre- tary; Ina Mae Rabinoviteh, man- ager; Betty Ann Olsen, program chairman. The membership of the club in- cludes: Alice Atkins, Winnie Aus- tin, Jean Baker, Peggie Brown, Beth Cowing, Rachel Crick, Margery DeRoo, Anne Doyle, Reva Frumkin, Sara Frumkin, Madolyn Gunnell, Hettie Hanson, Maxine Hiller, Verna Kellogg, Irene Magidsohn.

Girl Scouts ALTHOUGH the Girl Scouts are usually considered an organ- ization for younger girls, girls of high school age can find much of great interest to them in this group. The well-known aims of this nation-wide movement are special- ly suited to girls of this age. In older groups, less attention is given to work for badges and awards, and more time is spent on handi- craft and community projects. Central High School’s Troop 2 mounted animals for the Michigan Children’s Aid society at Christ- mas time, carved wooden dogs and box covers, and made experiments in soap carving. A large part of the year’s meet- ings has been devoted to the study of photography, and the troop sponsored the photography booth at the Girl Scout carnival held on on March 20. The social events of the year have included a week end spent at Camp ’O Fair Winds. McKean lake, hikes, wiener roasts and an ice skating party. Troop 2 has an organization unique in Girl Scouting: Instead of the usual patrol leader form, the group elected Jessie Meade presi- dent, Doris Torrey scribe and Mary Gutteridge treasurer. Miss Lila Gairns and Miss Virginia Harwood sponsored the troop which met weekly. The membership of the troop in- cludes Jessie Meade. Otha Borders, Phyllis Webber, Margaret Cole, Alice Hill, Doris Torrey, Mary Nakamura, Mary Etta Fanning, Winifred Austin, June Neilson, Mary Gutteridge and Constance Grimes. Girl Reserves THE Central High Girl Reserves under the leadership of Helen Johnson, president; Anne Emerton, vice president; Lucretia Phillips, treasurer; and Mary Anna Mitchell, secretary, have had an active year. The purpose of the Blue Triangle organization is To face life squarely and to find and give the best.” For their service project it was decided to entertain and help the children of the Child Welfare Home; the children were taken Christmas shopping, were helped with making valentines, and were given a subscription to a child’s magazine. Many interesting speakers were secured this year. Among them were: Miss Todd of the Child Wel- fare Home. Dr. Ralph Kearns, Mrs. Phlinder who spoke on her visit to the Passion Play at Oberam- mergau, and Miss Ingram of Lowell Junior High school who spoke on choosing a proper vocation. The representatives to the an- nual Mid-Winter conference, held at Lansing this year, were Virginia Reeves and Donna Hause. In the election for next year’s officers, held in April, Virginia Reeves was chosen president, Mary Anna Mitchell, vice president; Wil- ma Snider, secretary, and Florence Vance, treasurer.

THE AIM of the French club is to study French customs and to give members a better under- standing of the French language. The club holds several meetings during the year, some of which feature outside speakers. Miss Grace Pinel and Miss Baker of Junior College gave talks on French customs; several reports were given by members of the club. A French play was also given by the members for the benefit of other students. Among the social events, a party and picnic were en- joyed. The club also did its part in the Pow Wow by sponsoring two side shows. Thirty eligible French students have been invited to be members next year. The officers for the sea- son were Jack Sarvis, president; Sally Cummings, vice president; Bonnie Battiste. secretary and Verna Kellogg, treasurer.

More than 100 girls modeled gar- ments made by themselves in the various clothing classes. The girls in the advanced clothing courses modeled silk dresses, woolens, suits, and coats, while other students modeled cotton dresses. A variety of styles in suits, dresses, and coats were offered and, as a new feature this year, the boys modeled suitable clothes for various occasions. These boys had been studying this in a course in clothing selection for boys. The Central High School string quartet furnished music. The com- mittee on arrangements included Mrs. Louella Harris, Miss Hazel Hoyt, Miss Dorothy Stone, and Miss Edna Carr. Page Thirty-Nine CAMERA CLUB—This photograph shows members of the Central Camera club at work. The Camera Club •“THE Central High School Cam- era club which was re-named the Cen-Hi Camera club was com- pletely reorganized during the last year in order to give instructions in elementary photography to a larger number of people. Under the direction of Leonard Redd a lesson on some phase of this fascinating subject is pre- sented and demonstrated at each monthly meeting. A printing dark- room has been outfitted, and a printing and developing clinic was held once a week. Another aid to the would-be photographer maintained by the club is the purchasing of supplies in large quantities at wholesale prices and the dispensing of these supplies to members in good stand- ing at less than the retail price. The club also publishes a monthly news letter for its larger member- ship. and has an exhibit case of its work in the lobby. This year’s Camera club activi- ties have been under the direction of Eddie Drury, president; Bill Mallory. vice president; Anne Sterner, secretary; Barbara French, treasurer, and Mr. Redd, faculty adviser.

The Stamp Club '“'vNE of Central’s newly formed clubs, organized during the second semester, promises to be a large and active group during the coming year. One of the objects of the club is to bring together those who are interested in stamps. The club also expects to visit dif- ferent dealers and traders. Several of the amateur philatel- ists have very excellent collections, while others have a very good be- ginning. Because the club was started so late in the season regular officers were not elected, but temporary ones were appointed. David Rhame was appointed chairman and Elea- nor Heystek secretary-treasurer. Also committees were appointed to be in charge of such activities as programs and the display case. As general chairman of the display case committee, Wallace Parker has done an especially nice piece of work. Plans were made to hold contests to enlarge the group’s knowledge of stamps, and an auc- tion for trading purposes and the exchange of duplicates. Miss Edna R. Stewart is sponsor of the club and the members in- clude Elza Bruce. Eleanor Hey- stek, Albert Roth, Maurice Jeffers, Boyd Bersinger, Shirley McFarlan.

Page Forty-Two BOOSTER CLUB—Standing: Fred Briggs, Madeline Crane, Mr. Gun n, faculty sponsor; Peggy Savage, Doris Girod; seated: Hubert Sweet. The Booster Club THE ORGANIZATION of the Booster Club brought out a larger attendance than any other club at Central has ever assembled at an Initial meeting. Any student Union member interested in “school spirit” was eligible to join. Responsible for the temporary or- ganization of the club were Hubert Sweet and Fred Briggs who were later chosen president and vice president respectively. Madeline Crane, secretary, and Charles Smith, treasurer, were other of- ficers. From a discussion of “school spirit” evolved the purpose of the club. To create a rebirth of the seemingly declining school spirit, to develop better sportsmanship and to give every student an op- portunity to increase his interest in the school activities was the general purpose of the formation of a Boosters” organization. At once plans were laid for ob- taining a means of transportation to out-of-town football games. Un- der the direction of Thomas Gwyn, club sponsor, and Ralph Carpenter, it was made possible for a large crowd of students to follow the team to Midland. The club was ac- tive in getting many students to drive to out of town contests as well as in securing a truck for the pep band. The club leaders participated actively in the pep meetings dur- ing both the football and basket- ball seasons. Booster club members were used to form the block F” cheer- ing section at the Northern-Cen- tral football game on Thanksgiv- ing day. During the drive for flood relief funds, the Booster club president, co-operating with the Alpha Rho Tau, made an appeal to the stu- dent body for contributions. The student body, as a whole, con- tributed generously toward the fund. Another project of the club, un- der the direction of Richard Shupe and Doris Girod, was the two paper campaigns to help raise money for the band uniform fund. Efficient planning and co-opera- tion from many students helped to make the sales a success. Neigh- borhood stations were set up to facilitate the gathering of paper. In Pow Wow activity, Booster club members were found to be active in many places, but largely in publicity work. At several meetings, special speakers and entertainment fea- tures were arranged for. Truman Spain, an All-American football player from Southern Methodist, and Mac Valleau, a peppy gradu- ate of Central, spoke as well as many others. Movies were also shown and pins for Booster club members were discussed. The membership of the club now numbers almost 300. which far ex- ceeds the membership of any other club. Although the first year was an active one. plans are already being made for next fall. The German Club CENTRAL students have shown sufficient interest in another field to warrant the organization of another activity, the German club. A variety of interests in German history and language are shown in the programs which are planned by a student committee. One group primarily interested in singing the colorful songs of the German na- tion. Their group is called the “Sinachor.” Other groups have given reports on poets and his- torical points in German history. An interesting project was a play spoken in German. The members also learned a folk dance and furthered their knowledge of for- eign pastimes. Meetings are held once a month and are sponsored by Miss Dietrich. German teacher. The complete roster of the Ger- man club is made up of the fol- lowing: Jason Austin. Alice Brad- ley, Leon Coquillette. David Call. Bob Crane. Ruth Cranston. Juno Densmore. Blanche Dodds. Shirley Dalby, Jimmie Edwards. Gladys Evert, Nave Fuleihan, Mary Etta Fanning. Rex Frink. Lucille Giles. Barbara Hammill, Elsie May Kien. Margaret McVannel.

Robert Signer and Duane Perry. Page Forty-Three f A SCENE FROM THE SENIOR PLAY. “LIFE BEGINS AT SIXTEEN” The Senior Play, ‘Life Begins at Sixteen’ HTHE ANNUAL Senior Play, “Life Begins at Sixteen,” comedy of modern youth in three acts, pre- sented May 27 and 28 was a great success. The plot centered around a pair of active twins. Paul and Frannie Hollis, who did their best, with the help of the Secret Seven, to manage a shoe store and their old sister's romance while their parents were vacationing in Havana. The parts of Paul and Frannie were played with naturalness and poise by David Magee. Marjorie Dinning, and Magdalene Lewis. The difficult role of Snookie, the nine-year-old member of the fam- ily was very well done by Arlene Aurand. Betty Mengell was a charming Marjorie, the harassed older sister. Luther Bridgman as Crandal Smythe, the villain, was perfect. Mabel Mills as Hilda, the Swedish maid, displayed excellent dialect. Leon Coquillette as George Gordon suffering from the pangs of un- requited love, was fine in his characterization. Mr. and Mrs. Hollis were particularly well done by Erwin Madison and Alice Need- ham. Theo, a member of the Secret Seven, was especially good; Gerard Melancon and Jack Sarvis took this part. Marion Conde and Betty Earle were very amusing as the discon- tented members of the Secret Seven, Boots and Daisie. Other members of the cast, all of whom gave excellent portrayals of their parts, were: Eileen Cross and Violet Woodruff as Miss Elsie; Harriet Myers as Pidgie, another member of the Secret Seven; Kendall Davy as Fatty (always thinkin’ of something to eat) Zim- mer. The play was written by Hilda Manning and was directed by Mrs. Helen Hardy Brown. The committees in charge of the production were as follows: prop- erties. Sally Cummings, Anna Subora. Ralph Smafield; script, Edyth Stevenson; make-up. Mary Hutchison. A1 Butts. Gladys Root; student stage manager, Eric Nat- tress; color lighting. Aurora Shaw; programs. Betty Earle; publicity, Gerard Melancon. Marion Conde; tickets. Ralph Snyder and Jack Lynch. I Page Forty-Four SCENES FROM POLLYANNA, THE JUNIOR CLASS PLAY THE BIG EVENT of the year— for the Juniors—“Pollyanna,” written by Catherine Cushing and directed by Mi's. Helen Hardy Brown, was presented Thursday and Friday nights, February 11 and 12. Mrs. Brown expressed herself in saying that it was one of the most professional-like Junior Plays for some time. Everyone is familiar with the story of Pollyanna and her glad game. Mildred Spaniel in the title role of “Pollyanna” for Thursday night charmed the first night audi- ence with her naturalness in inter- preting the part. James Pascoe as Jimmy Bean The Junior Play portrayed the part of a twelve year old orphan expertly. His boy- ishness in the first three acts was especially worth commenting upon. Elizabeth Nelson in the character role of Aunt Polly was outstanding. Oscar Spaley was perfect as Mr. Pendleton, the old grouch who be- comes completely reformed by Pollyanna, the daughter of the woman he loved. The role of Doctor Chilton who finally wins Aunt Polly was de- picted humorously by Ted Mc- Logan. Shirley Blom as the im- pertinent Irish maid acquired a perfect accent, delighting the audi- ence in her arguments with Bob Wright, entirely acceptable as Mr. Pendleton’s butler. Other characters were: The typi- cal Ladies’ Aiders, played by Vir- ginia Orr, Modest Bridges, Zora Veljokv, Agnes Parker, and Vir- ginia Newton. Herbert Sweet was the gardener. Friday night Mayme Smith gave a flawless performance as Pollyanna and Don Edwards played Jimmy with great dramatic ability. One must not forget Sodom and Gomorrah who added their talents to the production. This year the Juniors definitely broke away from the costume play tradition. Pajjc Forty-Five The 1937 Pow Pow and Indian Fair f CONSIDERED a financial and entertainment success, the 1937 all-school Pow Pow and Indian Fair more than accomplished its purpose in fully paying for the new band uniforms. The night of April 23 was a gala occasion, the build- ing being packed with students and their friends. Through fine co- operation among the students, many attractions and concessions presented a varied type of enter- tainment. Pre-Pow Wow activity was more evident this year, namely in the publicity campaign. A downtown parade was suggested and staged by a student committee, and an air- plane towed aloft a sign advertising the Pow Wow. In the parade more than 50 cars, brightly decorated, and two bands participated. Members of the Stu- dent Council and Boosters club called almost all the telephone numbers in Flint. Via radio, news- paper and posters the big fair was advertised; most spectacular of all, a large electric sign on the building caught the attention of all in the vicinity of the school. The Arrow Head conducted an all-school popularity contest to determine the chief of Indian Braves and the Indian Princess presided over the Pow Wow. As a result, twice-wlnner Fred Briggs and Evelyn O'Brien, attended by a court of runners-up in the poll, were crowned in a colorful corona- tion ceremony by Principal John E. Wellwood in the auditorium be- for Pow Wow patrons. Serving in the court were, among the girls, Mildred Spaniel, Doris McGlone, Eileen Cross and Phyllis Maxwell; among the boys, Richard Primrose, David Magee, Lorn Kohlman and Charles Smith. The halls of the building were hung with objects pertaining to the carnival spirit such as canes, hats and other designs made of paper. Barkers drummed up a merry- trade and hawkers cried their wares lending the proper mood to the occasion. Among the best fea- tures of the evening was the Mid- way. Booths contained devices of chance and skill, novelties, and re- freshments. The student revenge booth where effigies of Central faculty members were erected as targets for rubber balls proved a popular place, especially with the students. The Hall of Science drew many large crowds who came to witness scientific demonstrations of prac- tical and exhibitional types. The million-volt high frequency elec- tricity machine caused many a thrill to be experienced by those who watched Central scientists play with man-made lightning. Patterned after the old fun house, the Hall of Horrors had its share of prominence on the enter- tainment mart. The nationally fa- mous puppeteer, David Leno, loan- ed his historical collection of pup- pets to the Pow Wow. Some of the them are centuries old. Under his them ar ecenturics old. Under his supervision “Moon Magic” was pre- sented with an added attraction. “Punch and Judy” show. The Bijou theatre featured good movies. In the Pow Wow revue which featured talented performers from the Junior high schools, the acts of vaudeville were presented. Crystal gazers related in mysteri- ous interviews the secrets of the future, past, and present. In the auditorium Major Bowes’ Hour was conducted with a continuous pro- gram of amateur entertainers who competed for cash prizes. An auction sale, held by mem- bers of the advertising class, con- tinued until the supply of valuable articles that were put on the block was exhausted. The blood- curdling melodrama lured many a Pow Wow visitor to the tower of the school where the thrilling skit was given. Four one-act plays were presented consecutively in the Little Theatre.” The Mott Foun- dation offered a revue of entertain- ers. The general committee was headed by chairman. John E. Well- wood, and was composed of Stan- ley Broome, George A. Stracke and Howard G. Schall. They w'ere as- sisted by many faculty sub-com- mittees which w'ere augmented by student committees.

The most comical act of the evening was the old fashioned school depicted by the usually dig- nified faculty. The traditional “school marm,” visiting school board, dunce, a pair of young lov- ers. giggling girls, frisky boys, and studious damsels were all repre- The Jamboree sented by the mimicking teachers. A basketball game between members of the women’s faculty and a group of girls also brought many laughs from the audience. An exciting game between men teachers and the varsity basketball team w-as another feature of the evening of fun. In each of these games, the students proved victori- ous over the less experienced teachers. The vaudeville program was composed of dancing and novelty stunts by several students of senior and junior high schools with Mr. Grant acting as master of cere- monies. Following this the two gymnasiums were opened to danc- ing with music furnished by a school orchestra. The gymnasium department, with Napoleon LaVoie as general chair- man, was in charge. Page Forty-Eight The Kaleidoscope THE TWELFTH annual Kaleido- scope was hailed this year as the best in many years. The show, being an all-school revue, brought out the student talent in Central and a truly kaleidoscopic picture of Central's activities was presented. The amicable master of cere- monies. David Magee, was intro- duced by the lovely opening chorus. This was followed by the Central Symphony orchestra. The dramatic department pre- sented a one-act comedy, “The First Shave.” Living Statues,” de- picting various sports, was given by gymnasium classes. The a cap- pella choir presented three num- bers, followed by the Attic Players' dramatization, “On the Lot.” The always popular Girls' Ballet offered a beautiful pantomine centering around the court of King Winter, entitled “Winter Wonderland.” The boys of Central presented a musi- cal act, featuring an accordion so- lo, a boy’s trio and a novelty stunt in which cowbells were used. The Concert band next present- CENTRAL'S TWELFTH ANNUAL KALEIDOSCOPE—“Exhibition Waltz,” Fast Tapper, “Old Fashioned Melodies,” “Winter Wonderland” “On the Lot ,” “Midnight Blue ,” “Boys’ Novelty Act,” Song and Dance, “The First Shave,” Master of Ceremonies, “Living Statues,” “Good Night Cen- tral,” Dance Novelty ” ed several selections: “Old Fash- ioned Melodies” were presented by a girls' choral group accompanied by a string trio. With the “Central Hi-Lights,” a jazz band, the mod- ern musical act carrying out the “swing-craze” was the final num- ber. The opening chorus, attired in colorful pajamas, sang “Goodnight Central, as they extinguished their candles, closing the performance. Pace Forty-Nine ' Vagc Fifty The Opera, ‘The Marriage of Nannette’ “HTHE MARRIAGE of Nannette,” ■ a comic opera in three acts by Agnes Peterson and Louis Curtis, was presented by the students of Central April 15 and 16. Though not a Gilbert and Sullivan, as of former years, it was just as well received. The action of the opera takes place in the village of Champs- des-Fleurs, Northern France, dur- ing the early seventeenth century The Due d’Antin. no longer young, has arrived at the Inn, “The Gold- en Lamb.” to await his fourth bride, the beautiful Countess Heloise. Johnie Keown and Har- mon Williams played the role of the Due with a great deal of comedy. The Due is attended by his daughter, Madelon. delightfully played by Marjorie Dean and Irene Shayman, Henri, Marquis de Hau- teur played by Marvin Leffel, and Hilaire, his steward, played by Robert McIntosh and William Mills. Madame Zenobie, the crafty mis- tress of the Inn, excellently played by Levina Hartman, seeks an op- portunity to better her circum- stances through the marriage of her pretty daughter Nannette, charmingly portrayed by Virginia Taylor and Leora Bersinger, who loves and is loved by Rene, a vil- lage youth, Donald LePark and Milton Rye. Rumor has it that the Countess Heloise de Martigny is the fairest lady in all of France and that no man has yet gazed upon her beau- ty. Her arrival at the Inn, ex- pected shortly after that of the Due, is delayed. This causes much consternation to all except Madame Zenobie and her son Edmond, Eric McKitrick and Stanley Hip- wood, and his companions: Rodc- rique, Jack Pelton: Baptist, Ken- neth Leach; and Jean, Wilfred Hunter, who have waylaid the Countess and taken her into hid- ing in hope of receiving a hand- some reward. Since no on has seen the face of the lovely bride-to-be. Madame Zenobie sees an opportun- ity to supplant her daughter Nan- nette in place of the Countess. Meantime the appearance of Yvonne, a pretty gypsy maiden, Beverly Stedman as Colona John- son, is playing havoc with the romance of Nannette and Rene. Henri sees in Yvonne the girl of his dreams and leaves Madelon free to accept the attention of Hilaire whom she loves. The appearance of Marion Conrie as the Countess Heloise brought down the house and drew the opera to its hilarious conclusion. Other members of the cast in- cluded John Durkee and Lloyd Pel- tier as Reporello, Jessie Barrera as Ningara. Sherwin Northrup as Emile, George Nyman and Her- bert Pearce as Jacques, Lueile White and Donna Davies as Yvette, Lois Sanford and Dorothy Smith as Susanne, Chester Warner and Robert Shelley as Marcel, Herbert Boothe as Pierre Parthenay, and Luther Bridgman as Paulino, the peddler. The directing staff included Franklin S. Weddle, opera direc- tor; Mrs. Maude Stewart Beagle, dramatic director; Walter Bloch, orchestra, and J. R. Short, stage manager. Ushering was provided by the Commanderins. The chorus of villagers included Elizabeth Alp, Clara Balint, Doro- thy Bieck, Norma Boze, Celeste Buckley, Lillian Coupar, Jessie Elston, Marjorie Frost.

Papje Fifty-One The Central High School Orchestra • THE HIGHLIGHTS of the year for the Central Symphony or- chestra were the mid-semester con- cert in conjunction with the A Cap- pella choir and the musical festival in which all musical organizations of Central High school and North- ern High school participated. On Feb. 24, at the mid-semester con- cert, Miss Dorothy Stone, contralto, of the home economics department of Central was guest soloist; the most outstanding number of the evening was Sibelius’ Finlandia” which was rendered by the com- bined choir and orchestra. At the music festival in May the combined orchestras of the two schools gave selections. One of the busiest seasons the orchestra has ever seen was begun with the annual Kaleidoscope when the group, consisting of sixty-eight members, played a group of numbers and incidental musical for other acts. A group of orchestra members were selected to play for the Junior and Senior plays under the able direction of Jack Pelton. Other activities of the group, under the direction of Walter Bloch, were the concert played at the Court Street church, and the accompanying of the school opera, The Marriage of Nannette.” The quartet, composed of Howard Shaw, Joan Crane, Joyce Darrow, and Robert Crane, played for the Style show held April 21. The officers of the orchestra were: President, Howard Shaw; vice president, Robert Gaddis; secretary-treasurer, Robert Crane, and business manager, Robert Timyan.

In April the band was invited to Hartland for one of a series of Vesper services. On Wednesday evening, April 28, the annual spring concert was given and was well received. Two of the outstanding features of the evening were a trumpet solo by Verna Kellogg and a trumpet trio by Roy Swift, Ruth Durkee and Wilfred Vincent.

Page Fifty-Three The Flint Central A Cappella Choir I TNDER the very capable direc- tion of Franklyn S. Weddle, this year, as seen with the A Cap- pella Choir, has been a very active one. Soon after the beginning of the semester the new members were welcomed into the choir by the formal initiation held in the library. At this function the of- ficers of the choir presided. They were Doris McGlone, president; Donald LePard, vice president; Eleanor Haskill, secretary, and Elton Weir, treasurer. The concert year began with the choir’s participation in the annual Kaleidoscope. During the Christ- mas season the choir formed a mu- sical background for a religious pageant which was enacted at in- formal assembles for the student body. Also during this period the choir was invited to sing carols at several theatres in the city. Programs were sung at several churches during the season. The combined choirs of Central and Northern High schools furnished music for the annual Go-to-Church night sponsored by the Hi-Y and Girl Reserves of both schools. Two other concerts much enjoyed by the choir were sung for the Sal- vation Army Citadel and the State Federation of Women's clubs at the Hotel Durant. For the mid-semester concert the Symphony Orchestra and the A Cappella choir combined. Each organization presented separate se- lections and massed for the final number, Findlandia,” by Sibelius. On May 21 the musical organiza- tions of Central and Northern gave a combined Music Festival. In this concert the choirs of the two schools presented four numbers to- gether. Dr. William Wellington Norton was guest conductor.

Summary of the Gridiron Season VV ITH THE TASK of construct- ” ing an entirely new team for the 1936 season, Coach Nap LaVoie of the Indians turned out one of the most determined-to-win squads ever to play on the Central grid- iron. In their initial game as host to Lapeer they showed unexpected exhibition of power. Their offensive clicked with the line showing much defensive strength. Jack Machino turned in two touchdowns while playing end. The Indians showed a great deal of fight which covered up errors found in the first game of the season. Central 34, Lapeer 0 Indians out on the trail crept on the Midland team. Midland, warned, put up a tough battle. Central although minus good war paint finally emerged victorious. Central 14, .Midland 0 Central’s third start was with Grosse Pointe on the Dort field. Termed a favorite they were out- played the first half. They came back strong in the last two cantos, but could not overcome the com- manding lead of the Grosso Pointe boys. Central 14, Grosso Pointe 21 Entering the valley season, Cen- tral suffered its first setback at the hands of Saginaw. Paced by a pair of fleet backs and excellent block- ing, Saginaw pushed over two scores. The Indians were not the team of their previous games. They clicked in the last quarter and registered one counter. Central 6, Saginaw 12 With the sting of the first set- back and odds against them Cen- tral journeyed to Bay City. They downed the highly touted Wolves, besides holding them scoreless. A pass to Bob Steffen and Bill Mel- zow’s 20-yard field goal gave a total of nine points. Central 9, Bay City 0 A superior team of Arthur Hill overpowered the Tribe. The In- dians, however, were the first team in the valley to score on the Lum- berjacks. Central 13, Arthur Hill 27 The Indians reached the season’s peak against the Pontiac Chiefs with well-timed offense. Paced by hard running halfbacks. Dickie and Hart, they camped most of the time in Pontiac territory. Improvement of the line was shown in this fray. Central 13, Pontiac 6 Owosso came next with Central figuring on many easy scalps since Owosso had not figured in the win column so far. Owosso was aroused to a fight- ing pitch. Central, taking things for granted, was thrown for a loss when the Trojans scored twice in the first half. The Indians fought back futilely in the second half, but were able to collect only six points. Central 6, Owosso 13 The Central-Northern game sent many a brave “Indian” to the happy Hunting Ground. For it ended their careers as football players for Central. The game was excelled by no other previous Thanksgiving game, with Central's well timed offense out-maneuvering the Viking de- fense. Central 12, Northern 0 Page Fifty-Six Viking Grid Reign Ended by Central’ CENTRAL, having taken the hard knocks each year on Thanksgiving for the last three years, regained her stride on Thanksgiving day to tally 12 points while keeping her goal line un- crossed. Northern had an experienced team fairing her worst year, while Central, beginning with a squad of green youngsters, had a slight edge because of their season record. (While uncertainty prevailed, many were led by the axiom “string along with a champion un- til he gets licked”). The day was clear, sun shining, with a crisp wind blowing across the Atwood stadium gridiron. Central supporters occupied the eastern stands with their huge block “F” in red, black, and white, Northern fans on the west with a huge block “N” in scarlet and gray. The players were on the spot with 16,000 eyes focused on every move they made. The game opened with Northern kicking to Central. Willoughby, taking the ball on the 20, backed by good interference, carried it to the 46, nearly breaking into the clear. Through the first period one first down was registered, both teams bucking the line. Central attempted three passes, one completed for 13 yards. On the third play in the second CHEER LEADERS Roy Eddy. period, Northern was forced to kick from the 14. A bad punt by Guy Watkins, grounded on the 38, paved the way for Central’s first touchdown in four years. Five plays, a pass from Hart to Weaver netted 25 yards and a first down on the Northern 13. A line plunge by Hart lost a yard. A pass from Hart to Willoughby put the ball on the eight, another pass, Hart to Park, set the ball on the one-yard stripe. Willoughby plunged over for the marker. Melzow’s attempted con- version was low. Jones took the kickoff after fumbling in the end zone, but came back to the 30 after splendid run- ning and good interference. Cen- tral did not relinquish the ball un- til the Indians had marched the length of the field for six more points, Weaver making 22 yards on a reverse. A pass completed from Kart to Weaver, went from the Central 48 to Northern 28. Weaver- picked up four on another reverse and a pass, Jones to Bates, put the ball on Northern's 5. Dickie went in for Jones and found a hole in the line, going over for the sec- ond touchdown. The placement by Bill Melzow was again low. Northern here began its only threatening rally of the day. Stra- ley and Watkins carried the ball — Donald Neal, Watson Pierce, Robert Aslin, Tribesmen from their 24 to Central’s 27. This was terminated as the half ended. On the third period kickoff Hart took the ball and galloped 63 yards to the Viking 32, where Straley brought him down. Northern’s line held, and Hart punted into the end zone. The Vikings rallied here when Jack Carpenter crashed through tackle for 16. followed by another long run by Straley which netted 21 yards. Here the Tribe braced and Watkins punted to the Central 5, where the ball was downed by McGeah. Hart then punted out of danger and Central covered the ball when Jack Carpenter fumbled the kick. After that there was no serious rally by either side and the gun ended the game with the Tribe on the long end of the score of 12-0. Straley was the big gun for the Vikings with Watkins giving him good support. Bohl and Bully play- ed fine games on the line. Central was paced by Bill Hart, with Chuck Willoughby backing up the line and leading the team su- perbly. Bob Ferguson, new to the guard position, played a fine game. Capt. Larry Bloomer played heads up ball in his last game for the In- dians. while Bill Melzow played his usual fine game. This triumph gave Central the first leg of the new Wildanger trophy.

Central’s Cross Country Campaign HPHE FALL of 1936 saw John ■ Seaton, coach of the cross country team, bring forth another crack team to continue their string of victories of the last two years which Mr. Seaton has coached. The record showed one defeat and sev- en victories in dual competition with a third in state meets. Of the six members that compose a team only Capt. Bill Mallory and Herbert Boothe, both veterans of two years, remained for the '36 season. Duane Zempey, Paul Kelly and Jimmy Crane, miler of last spring’s track team, reported for practice. Their inaugural meet was at Fern- dale with Duane Zemper setting the pace for the two miles with a winning time of 10:47; Lyle Glann, second; Jimmy Crane, fourth; Bill Mallory, fifth, and Paul Kelly, ninth. Central won 21 to 34, low score being the winner in track where 15 points is the lowest pos- sible score. Meeting their arch rival from the north end in a race held be- tween halves of the Central-Grosse Pointe football game, Central trounced the Viking team for the seventh straight time with Zemper leading the field through the cold and rain in 11:15.8. Vernon Kres- bock, a sophomore, gave Duane a run for his money in taking a close second. Lyle Glann was third; Jim- my Crane, fourth; Bill Mallory, seventh; Paul Kelly, eighth. Cen- tral 17, Northern 38. Central then met Lansing Cen- tral between halves of the Sagi- naw-Central game. Central was ahead until a Lansing runner crept up behind Zemper and Kresbock who were trying to tie for first. Zemper and Kresbock, interested in getting together to cross the tape in a dead heat, did not hear the Lansing boy coming up behind them. In the last 10 yards he pass- ed them and was over the line be- fore the boys realized what had happened. Central 28, Lansing 28. Traveling to Ypsilanti the boys stepped into fast company against the Toledo Scott and Michigan Normal freshman teams in a tri- angular meet. Central took the meet with 39 points while Michi- gan Normal took third with 49 points. Zemper placed third; Kres- bock, fifth; Crane, eighth; and Boothe, tenth; time was 10:37. The last meet of the season was the state tournament. Last year Central lost first place by five points and the second place cup by one point. This year Central again took third against a field of 12 teams. Lansing Central, who was tied by the Indians in a dual meet, won the state meet with Kalamazoo taking second place. With about 70 boys running in the one race. Central runners placed as follows: Duane Zemper, fourth; Herbert Boothe, eleventh; Jimmy Crane, twenty- first; Lyle Glann, twenty-third, and Paul Kelly, twenty-eighth.

Summary of the Basketball Season OACH Stan Plummer, in his second year of coaching at Central, produced one of the greatest basketball teams in the school’s history. The Indians were only defeated by one team in the Valley which was Northern. Cen- tral lost to the Viking twice in the Valley race but finally gained re- venge when they put the north end lads out of the State tourna- ment. The Tribe finished second in the conference with a record of ten victories and two losses. The In- dians continued after the regular season with two straight wins in the regional warfare and one vic- tory and one loss in the State tour- nament. The Indian five was put out of the semi-final by the cagers from Holland who capitalized on height to edge the Tribe. Stan Plummer’s charges rolled up a total of 410 points compared to 265 for their opponents. Cap- tain Fred Briggs and Charles Smith were named on the all-Val- ley quintet, while Lorn Kohlmann and Bob Steffen were named on the second five. “Chuck” Smith held scoring honors for the Indians and was the leading Valley scorer with 113 points; he was followed closely by Captain Grady Truss of Northern, with 108 points. BASKETBALL SUMMARY Central’s debut into the 1936-37 season looked doubtful when they ran into the strong Ann Arbor team, Five A” league champions, and lost their first game. Coach Plummer was able to see that his boys had many things to be iron- ed out before entering Valley com- petition. The second trial, with Owosso, was a run away, with Charles Smith scoring 16 points and Cap- tain Fred Briggs 12. Traveling to Saginaw Arthur Hill, the Red-Blacks conquered the Lumberjacks in an easy game. If the points had not been piled up in the first half, it might have been a different story. Returning home, Central faced Northern in the first leg for the city championshi, with the Vi- kings winning this heated contest by one point.

Summary of the Basketball Season gymnasium in a rough and tumble game, Central emerged victorious. Dick Primrose was sent out of the game when he returned a blow from one of the Pontiac players. Going to Bay City, our cagers took an easy game from the Wolves with Smith and Lorn Kohl- mann being high point men. Meeting Saginaw Eastern, for the first time in their gymnasium, the Indians swamped the Trojans in an easy game. Coach Plummer was pleased with his charges. Playing in the girls’ gymnasium under the brilliant leadership of Captain Sonny” Briggs, Central’s quintet edged out the Lumber- jacks in a hotly contested game. Meeting the Chiefs again, but on home grounds, proved to be just a matter of handling the ball and close shots to the basket. Although Smith seemed to be having an off Continued from Page 60 night, the rest of the team co-oper ated perfectly.

Central displayed a smart brand of basketball both on offense and de- fense. The Indians were well prepared for the second game with Bay City. The Tribe displayed a great piece of defense work by holding the Wolves to eleven points. All mem- bers of the squad received a chance to play, while the Varsity sat by and watched. Because of a partial letdown. Central was nearly overcome by Owosso. The Indians were a little off on their shots in this game and couldn’t find the basket, but came through with Smith’s shots. Saginaw entered upon the In- dians’ floor to revenge its first trimming but was set back again by the powerful Central team.

The Baseball Season at Central THE PROGRESS of the 1936 baseball team under the coach- ing eye of Stan Broome was very good. Turning out for practice were more than 50 boys, all in- terested in finding a berth on the varsity team. Six veterans return- ed to duty, the remaining three positions on the team were chosen from last year’s reserves. Last season the team played 13 games, eight of which were valley contests with four wins and four losses making .500 per cent in val- ley standings. Five outside games were played of which Central took three. Regulars this year are Pa- nos. behind the bat; W. Burch, at first base: Jaska. on second; King, playing shortstop; and D. Burch, on third; Machino, Palma. Annos, out- fielders: and Kohlmann. Kinzel and Heintz, pitchers. Dort field furnished Central’s team with an excellent diamond directly behind the school. A rea- son for the team’s fighting spirit is attributed to the student body’s support. 1936 Season CENTRAL 5, NORTH BRANCH 2 I Last season Central’s opener was —A------J with North Branch with Lorn Kohlmann on the mound, later re- lievcd by Heintz. They restricted the up-state boys to three hits. CENTRAL 1, SAGINAW EASTERN 3 Second game was lost, although being a hard fought battle, to the Saginaw Trojans. Central collect- ed six hits to four, but Saginaw took advantage of the breaks. CENTRAL 3. SAGINAW EASTERN 1 On May 6. taking good advantage of their eight hits, the Indians evened their score with Saginaw; while Kinzel struck out 16 of the Trojan batsmen. CENTRAL 9, HOWELL 4 Traveling to Howell, Central scored all their runs in two big innings to turn in another victory for George Heintz doing the mound work. C ENTRAL 2, BATTLE CREEK 1 The Indians battled through nine innings of tight baseball to edge out the Food City. Joe Kinzel al- lowed two hits and struck out 16 batters again. CENTRAL 3, PONTIAC 2 Hitting their stride again, the Red-Blacks returned to Dort Field to take a victory over Pontiac. Lorn Kohlmann set the Chiefs down with two hits and fanned 13. The Indians collected six hits off the offerings of the Chiefs' hurlers. CENTRAL 5, NORTHERN 0 Central opened the city series with Northern and administered a shutout to the Vikings. Joe Kinzel gave the Eskimos only one safety and fanned 14. C ENTRAL 5, OWOSSO 3 Winning their seventh straight, the Red-Blacks took the Trojans over the road for an easy victory, with Heintz receiving credit for the game. CENTRAL 0, BAY CITY 1 CENTRAL 0, BAY CITY 3 During a double-header, the In- dians were cut short by the Wolves taking the first game. Later the same day the Tribe was taken into camp again. Kohlmann received the first loss and Kinzel the sec- ond after replacing Heintz in the third. CENTRAL 4, NORTHERN 2 Upon returning home the city championship was swept away from Northern by the miraculous pitching of Joe Kinzel. Allowing the Vikings three hits and taking advantage of Northern’s numerous errors, the victory was clinched. CENTRAL 1, ARTHUR HILL 6 Central was again set back, but this time by Arthur Hill. The In- dians seemed very weak at the plate, the only run being batted out by Wayne Burch. CENTRAL 13, PORT HURON 12 Playing a free-hitting game in wrhich 31 hits were divided betw-een Central and Port Huron, the latter was edged out by one run.

The Track Season at Central High School r ESPITE the adverse weather which permitted almost no out- door training prior to their first meets, the track team, under Coach Francis Smith, still had a successful season. Coach Smith worked the boys out on the indoor track, keeping them in training by long jogs. Returning varsity men were Captain Mel Sheppard, Don Jones and Bill Mallory, each a two-letter winner. The first letter men were Bill Hart, Duane Zemper, Russ Townley, Dick Primrose, Leonard Cross, Fernander Harris, Chuck Willoughby and Herbert Boothe. Over 80 boys reported to fill the vacancies left by the boys lost in graduation. With Captain Sheppard out with a leg injury, the Indians dropped their first meet to Saginaw’s pow- erful Trojans. 42-62. Outstanding was Bill Hart, who placed first in the high and low hurdles and shot- put, counting for 15 points. Don Jones won the 100 and 220-yard dashes for another ten points. Central ran away with the tenth annual triangular meet against Pontiac and Northern for the fourth consecutive year. Central scored first in nine of the 12 events. Bill Hart placed first in both high and low hurdle and Bob Bates took the high jump and broad jump, scoring 20 points. The relay team, composed of Wilson, Mallory, Willoughby and Jones, finished the meet by giving Jones the anchor man, a 15-yard deter- ment against Northern and who finished 15 yards ahead to win. The final scores were Central, 72Vi; Pontiac 39 ‘.4; Northern 17. The city meet was a merry-go- round for Central, as the team placed first in 10 out of 12 events. Russ Townley came within a quarter of an inch of tying the pole vault record of 10 feet 7 inches. Paul Kelly, a sophomore, surprised his teammates by taking the mile, having finished far behind his team in previous races. He beat Duane Zemper and Herbert Sweezy by a stride at the tape. Northern’s ace sprinter. Bob Lawson, who over- came Don Jones in the dashes the previous week bowed to Don in the 100 and 220-yard dashes. The Indians winning this meet brought the team to its sixth straight city title. Ann Arbor, a strong team, fell another prey to the Indians in its own conference. The remainder of the season’s schedule was the Regional in which Central and Saginaw each entered its strongest team in years. Boys finishing in one of the first four places qualified for the state finals. Central put on for the first time the Central Interscholastic Relay carnival with more than 20 schools entering the meet. Winning relay teams received cups for their schools and the individual runners received medals. Page Sixty-Three TENNIS TEAM—Row 1: George Spaulding, Bob Stef fin, Coach Cle- ment Rowe, Bob Sibilsky, Bob Kirby; Row 2: Louis Champion, Art Olson, Chuck Garthwaite, Robert Harris, Bob Bellairs. Varsity Tennis OTARTING his second year as tennis coach, Clem Rowe had a team under him that developed in- to one of the best to wear the Red- Black in the last few years. Four lettermen returned from last year’s team including Captain Charles Garthwaite. Robert Steffen, Arthur Olson, and Robert Harris. In addition, Coach Rowe had Robert Kirby, Warren Reese, Robert Sibilsky, and George Spaulding returning from last year. Of this group Spaulding and Kirby were varsity players. Louis Cham- pion and Robert Bellairs, sopho- mores, also showed a great deal of promise. Playing five singles matches and two doubles matches in competi- tion instead of the customary six- three, the Indians started the sea- son off on the right foot by win- ning their first two matches. They defeated Midland High in the open- er 8-1. In this match Steffen, Garthwaite, Spaulding. Harris, and Kirby annexed singles victories. Ol- son. playing No. 1 position dropped the only match. Traveling to Pontiac in the first valley contest, the Tribe won 6-1. This was closer than the score in- dicates as several of the matches were closely contested. Olson. Garthwaite. Spaulding, and Harris won singles matches. The No. 1 position appeared jinxed as Steffen dropped the only point. The match with Owosso was postponed because of rain. Follow- ing this match Central took two decisions from Bay City, Saginaw Eastern, Arthur Hill, and another one from Pontiac. Last year the Indians won nine matches and lost five while gaining a draw in two others. They drop- ped two to Northern while losing one each to Lansing Central, Bay City, and Grosse Point. Victories were accounted for with two over Saginaw Eastern. Arthur Hill, Pon- tiac and Midland; the other victory was over Junior college. Prospects for next year do not appear so bright, as Coach Rowe is losing four of the first five players by graduation. The returning players are Spaulding, Kirby, Sibil- sky, Matson, Reese, Champion and Bella;rs with the first two mention- ed the only veterans. The Golf Team LOOKING back over the last two seasons, Central golfers view their record with a great deal of satisfaction. In 1935, the first year under Coach Sulho Nurmi, the Indians won the City, Regional, and State championships. The 1936 Central golf team went through the regulation season un- defeated. only to lose their state title by three strokes at Kalama- zoo. This squad also won the City, Valley, and Regional champion- ships. Members of the team were Capt. Ken Calder, Bill Schwartz, Cliff James and Chuck Forbes. Re- serves who saw active service and earned “F’s” were Dave Rhame and Jack Vezina. Fine trophies were awarded the Central squad for honors in the Regional and State tournaments. In addition to these, medals were presented to each of the team members. Individual honors captured dur- ing the 1936 season were: Cliff James, low medalist at the Region- al; Calder and Schwarz, second and third low score at the state tournament. The mashie wielders have an- other potential championship team with a well balanced squad com- posed of Cliff James, captain; Jack Vezina. Bill Schwarz, Dave Rhame and Dick James. This year the team has taken four matches in stride. The first was with Bay City who fell before the sharpshooting Centralites by the score of 11-1. Pontiac was the second valley school to lose to Cen- tral, 10-2. Arthur Hill, next to meet the Indians, lost 10-2. Northern proved to have surprising strength but was defeated 7 V -4 , giving Central the edge on the city title. Much credit must be given to Coach “Stuck” Nurmi for the way in which he has developed the team. Four fine trophies in our show cases are evidence of his abil- ity during his two years of service.

Page Sixty-Four ' : ‘ 1 1 . : RYE’S THURSDAY NIGHT WINNERS GOLF CHAMPIONS SMITH’S MONDAY NIGHT WINNERS Intra-Mural Sports Activities THE INTRA-MURAL activities for 1936 and 1937. under the direction of “Nap” LaVoie, were a great success. These activities were entered into by many boys, the most of whom flocked to the school gymnasium after supper to play basketball during the late fall and winter months. When school started in the fall th ere was a tennis tournament under the leadership of Clemen Rowe. This was also included un- der intra-mural sports. There was a large turn out for this event with George Spaulding capturing the singles. At this time, there was also the golf tournament which was headed by Sulho Nurmi. This champion- ship was taken by Jack Vezina who was number one man on the ’37 golf sqaud. He and other var- sity men in the matches were forced to play under a handicap when paired with a non-varsity man. The basketball season then came around and about forty teams were organized. The Monday night league teams were chosen out of a group of boys who reported at the gym on the given night. All boys who were there were chosen on a team. The Thursday night league had a different plan. The boys around the school who wished to enter a squad in this league chose six or seven players and were thereby entered. At this time a midget division was formed, which the little fel- lows around Central were joyously waiting for. This division con- sisted of four teams. A play-off for every team win- ning two or more games was then held with all winners receiving medals for their efforts. The team captained by Smith of the Monday night league defeated Holtslander’s five to take the championship for that division. In the Midget League, Butts edged Beach for the title. John Dickie, star on the football team, guided his aggregation to the crown in the Thursday finals. His squad won their deciding fray over Rye, 30 to 24. Also during the winter months a free throw contest staged in the gymnasium classes was sponsored by LaVoie. The boys practiced for a few days sharpening their throwing eyes. There could be only one champion and it was Harry Hoelzle who out lasted the field to run off with the honors. In the spring. LaVoie headed a softball league and a volley ball tournament along with a horse- shoe pitching contest. Twelve teams were entered in the softball league, and the events were run off during the noon hours.

TENNIS T TNDER the leadership of Miss June Pitts, tennis is becoming a very popular sport at Central. Tournaments were held in the fall and spring. After a series of hard fought matches in the fall. Mado- lyn Gunnell was declared the champion with Margaret Turnbull placing second. In the spring more girls turned out than in any previous year. June Pitts gave instructions to over fifty beginners. Nineteen girls practiced to make the var- sity team, which is composed of eight players. Matches were sched- uled with Northern. Flint Junior college, and St. Matthews. Rep- resentatives were sent to the Mich- igan Junior Girls’ Tennis Tourna- ment at Cranbrook. Medals were awarded to cham- pions in the spring tournament for the first time. Girls who were out for varsity teams were re- quired to practice three hours a week. The peg-board system was used, in which a girl may chal- lenge another girl who is in a higher position on the board. This year the team was well managed by Doris Diehl. Page Sixty-Six p The Senior Class of 1937 SENIOR OFFICERS—President Cliff James . . . Vice Presidetit Eileen Cross . . . Secretary Jane Kelly . . . Treasurer Betty Earle. IN SEPTEMBER. 1934. almost 1 1.000 bewildered sophomores en- tered Central High School and were regarded as typical sophs.” After a lively election campaign which produced a fine set of offi- cers, these same sophs” were soon given their rightful title of Class of 1937.” Quentin Graham, presi- dent; David Magee, vice president; Mary Alice Doyle, secretary; and Mary Jane Doyle, treasurer, were chosen leaders of the newly form- ed class. The active sophomores soon took outstanding places in many phases of Central life. The following year, having gain- ed in confidence and enthusiasm, the juniors entered into school ac- tivities with an invigorating spirit. New officers were elected: David Magee ran unopposed for the jun- ior presidency, while Eileen Cross, vice president; Nola Shafer, secre- tary, and Arlene Gavette, treas- urer. were chosen to support him. Under the superivsion of the Jun- ior Board of Directors, the junior play, One Mad Night,” was ar- ranged for; the mystery-farce was pronounced a triumph. The Junior- Senior party, enjoyed by all. was hailed as another successful junior event. Seniors at last! With two pros- perous years behind them, the seniors faced the last year of their high school career with mingled feelings of regret and anticipation. Cliff James, appointee to the United States Military Academy at West Point, high scholarship stu- dent and golf team captain, was elected senior president. Eileen Cross, popular senior, was chosen vice president; Jane Kelley, who won the D.A.R. Citizenship Award, was elected secretary; and Betty Earle, prominent in dramatics, art, and music, was chosen treasurer. With eagerness the class looked forward to the never-to-be-forgot- ten activities in the latter half of its senior year. For the first time in several years a full school term was scheduled, which brought the graduation events during the first two weeks of June. Honors Assem- bly. June 10, gave the seniors the first opportunity to proudly wear their caps and gowns. Baccalaureate on Sunday, June 13, was a very impressive affair; the service was held in First Pres- byterian church. The most colorful event of the year was the Senior Dinner-Dance held June 15 in the Industrial Mutual Association audi- torium. Thursday night, June 17, the seniors again entered the Indus- trial Mutual Association auditor- ium for the Commencement Exer- cises. This closed the happy high school career of another class of Central High School. Page Sixty-Eight FI r � t Kow Bill Abraham College Preparatory II chemistry club, Cen-Hi Camera club.
