Dedication To MISS HENRIETTA LEWIS, who has guided thousands of students of Flint Central High School through the con- jugations and translations of Latin, who has served will- ingly and patiently as a kindly friend and counsellor to all seeking her advice, and who is about to retire from active teaching to a well deserved rest, the class of 1941 respect- fully dedicate this yearbook.

G Kleinheksel The Student Council Only after the last ballot had been counted in one of the closest elec- tions in Central’s history was Willard Hufstader firmly established as Student Union president. Other officers elected were William C. Crick, vice-president; Joyce Macy, recording secretary; and Martha Jane Gault, corresponding secretary. Twelve representatives from each of the three classes were chosen to make up the Student Council and to assist these officers in the administration of school affairs. Miss Grace Pinel was the advisor to the group. In addition to its permanent committees and routine business, the Student Council sponsored several worthwhile projects during the year that included distribution of old clothes to the needy, replacement of broken drinking fountains, modernization of the Student Union consti- tution, and the establishment of a new award for hall guard service. r r 1 1 1_ SENIOR BOARD OF DIRECTORS—First Row. left to right: Phyllis Williams, Virginia Macy, Betty Shayman.

Led by the senior officers, it is composed of a representative from each senior group. Meetings are not held regularly, but when a matter arises concerning the class as a whole, it is referred to the proper committee for consideration. The chief aim of the Senior Board of Directors is to acquaint seniors with class policies and projects, but this is by no means its only activity. The task of completing arrangements for commence- ment including the senior announcements, baccalaureate, and the in- volved preparations for the senior dinner dance comes under its juris- diction. The senior class selected the following officers at the all-school elec- tion held the first part of November: Jim Reeves, president; Charles Mullin, vice president; Georgianna Dyer, treasurer; Betty Shayman, secretary.

The main project on which they embarked was the play “Anne of Green Gables.” The receipts from this production will be used for the 1942 Senior Dinner-Dance. The Junior Board of Directors is sponsored by Miss Mabel Pinel and Miss Elsa Dietrich. Sophomore Board The Sophomore Board of Direc- tors, which is composed of a repre- sentative from each Sophomore group and the class officers, is under the sponsorship of Mrs. Thomas and Mrs. Nurmi. The annifal Sophomore Party, which the Board sponsors, was held March 14. o French Club The primary aim of the French Club is to better acquaint its members with the French people, places, and culture, and with that motive in view the club carried out an interesting and educational year. In order to become a member of this organization, a student must have the recommendation of his French instructor, and must have maintained a “C” average or higher. The group was under the leadership of Miss Mabel Pinel and the following student officers: pres., Nancy Steger; secy, Mary Atkins; treas., Phyllis Noyle.

Formed in the fall of 1938 by Mr. Thomas Davie, the Crease Paint Club immediately became a necessary organ- ization in the extra curricular activities of the school. Be- cause it requires time to learn to apply stage make-up properly, sophomores are the only students eligible as new members. The members learn the art of make-up primarily by ex- perimenting upon each other but their skwill is also aug- mented when they make up the casts for all of the school plays and Flint Civic Opera productions.

Our principal, Mr. John E. Wellwood, is the sponsor, and meetings are held whenever problems of interest to the school arise. SKIPPERS CLUB—Seated: William Crick Willard Hufstader. Mr. John Wellwood, Jim Beeves, Francis Whaley; Standing: David Gaul'., Ralph Charles Gillett, Ronald Russell, Stacey De Camp, Nelson Carley. Once a boy becomes a member, he con- tinues to be in the club as long as he attends school here, and he is expected to create and maintain desirable traditions among his classmates. One of the formal meetings held this year was a dinner at which Mr. Wellwood was (he host. The Commanderins The Commanderins was organized in 1930 by Miss Grace Pinel, Dean of Girls, and is composed of the highest ranking girl leaders of the school, the officers of each class, the highest ranking journalists on the Arrow Head and Prospectus, and the pres- idents of the three all girl clubs. This honorary society elects no officers and there is no set date for the meetings. The purpose of the organization is to affil- iate the girl leaders of the school, to discuss problems and regulations of the school with the administration and to create and main- tain desirable traditions.

Thdlian Literdry Society The Thalian Honorary Literary Society during 1940-41 was divided into three groups dealing with the fine arts: literature, music and sculp- ture. Each group had charge of several meetings during the year. A basket to a needy family was a Thanksgiving project, while Christmas saw the girls spreading cheer into many lonely hearts by a program at the McFarlan Home for elderly ladies. The annual “Open Door,” re- viewing the year’s activities, was held in May. The officers presiding for the year were: president. Louinia Mae McKinley; vice president, Janet Munson: secretaries, Mary Shattuck and Barbara Harris; treasurer, Johanna Peukert. The Forum Club One of the most intensely interesting clubs in Central during 1940-41, was the Forum Club under the direction of Miss Mildred Hodges. The main project of Forum was to make a scientific and comprehensive study of Flint and its problems. Committees, appointed to plan the program of each meeting, made the arrangements concerning speakers, and there was scarcely a gathering at which there was not a prominent speaker. The officers, who fulfilled their duties admirably, were Marion For- rester, president; Beth Tillier and Lavonda Wallace, secretarys.

Georgie Dyer Of Central’s fifteen valley league debaters, only twelve can be used at one time. Students participating in two tournaments win letters or, if compet- ing the second year, keys. Since ten debaters are graduating, only five exper- ienced members will be available next season—the least experience Central has carried over in years. In the first tournament at Northern, Central won 5 debates and lost 3, tying for second place. At Arthur Hill, Central won 4 and lost 4 falling to third place. The third contest at Owosso brought 5 victories to 3 losses. Although Bay City won the championship, Central completed the season with 14 vic- tories and 10 losses and tied for second honors with Northern.

Laurence Johns and Monroe Haw- ley participated in all debates and were assisted by Dave Gault, Jack Wright, and Conrad Benson. Central reached the elimination series and was the proud winner of a beautiful wall plaque and trophy cup, pre- sented by the Detroit Free Press, for the fifth consecutive year. Our debaters also were hosts to the participants in an elimination tourna- ment on February 1. Reaching the quarter finals, Central bowed only to Detroit-Mackenzie High School, champions of the entire Detroit area, by a vote of two to one. Editorial Stall P«t WhaUy.. . Windy William ..

Arrow Head The 1940-41 Arrow Head made its initial ap- pearance the first day of school and was pub- lished fortnightly during the school year. The editor-in-chief, Francis Whaley, made several improvements in the general journalistic meth- ods used, and Alice Daniels, Business Mgr., did a fine job in bringing the paper out of a deficit caused by the preceding business staff. Activities of clubs, sports events, sketches of the lives of prominent students and teachers, cartoons, and all school news coverage were regular features of the sheet. The Arrow Head during the second semester published the Screech, an annual scandal sheet which was voted a huge success by a record sale. 1 The Prospectus The staff members of the 1041 Pros- pectus have labored long and tirelessly to present this year’s annual with the hope that it will aid you to renew the happy memories of your high-school career at some future date. Under the supervision of Mr. Joseph Kuras, business advisor. Mr. George A. Stracke, editorial advisor, and Dave Gault, editor-in-chief, the re- porters and subordinate editors were able to help publish a yearbook of pleasingly new design and make-up. The Prospectus this year, as in former years, has sincerely tried to carry out the tradition set up nearly thirty years ago by the first edition, to present a complete and unbiased picture of school life at Central.

For those boys who liked athletics, the Hi-Y had two basketball teams: an intramural squad, and one in the “Y” league. In order to function successfully and maintain their active schedule the Hi-Y meets once a week, and at the first of each semester individual members are given a definite task or assignment which they execute during the term. Given the task of student officers were: president, Aulcfin Nelson; vice president, Allan Pound; secretary, Dick Smith; treasurer, Bernard Caine. Booker T. Washington Hi-Y The Booker T. Washington Club was under the supervision of Mr. Robert Richardson during 1940-41 and was composed of the Negro boys of Central. The purpose of the club is to better educate its members in regard to citizenship and to better the feeling between every American, regardless of his color. This club has been in existance in Central for several years, but this year was the first year that it has been affiliated with the Hi-Y organization. The officers for the year were: president, Louis Waterford; vice presi- dent, Lionel Nelson; secretary, Sam Wright; treasurer, William Jenkins. BOOKER T.

Cheerleaders The cheerleading organization this year was one of exceptionally fine quality. Although possessing only two returning letternien, the squad displayed all the zip and fire essential to winning athletic contests. In selecting the squad of twelve men Mr. Carroll Clark, the sponsor, had to choose from approximately 25 candidates eager for positions. All prospects were advised at the first meeting that their obligations would consist of three practice sessions each week from September through March. To receive a letter a cheerleader must participate at all major sports events and other affairs that arise during the course of the year. Much of the credit for the fine school spirit shown in 1940-41 should be attributed to these boys and their energetic student leader, Bill Crick. The Hi-y Chiefs A project for the benefit of the school has been the main goal of the chiefs. This worthwhile end was reached under the sponsorship of Mr. Jerome Udell and the leadership of the following student officers: Don Sullivan, president; Walt Garrett, vice president; W. Hufstader, secre- tary; Randall Replinger, treasurer. Assisting at athletic events was the most prominent duty of the Hi-Y members. Before the Northern-Central football game, the Chief Hi-Y had charge of the big pep rally held out of doors, and they since have directed the sale of peanuts, megaphones, and the like, before any major sports event. Possibly one of their most important pleasures was to usher at the widely publicized badminton game between the United States Champion and the Champion of the World.

Radio Club After two years of inactivity the Radio Club was reorganized under the direction of Mr. Kenneth Wright. Ever a popular organization, this year it was even more so as students flocked to room 230 in order to further educate themselves in the realm of radio theory. The activities of the club were centered around learning the construction of radio transmitters and the International Morse Code used in radio work. To aid in the code practice, several audio occillators were con- structed and the boys later spent long hours sending and receiving. A small transmitter was built, and a kilowatt rig, under con- struction for nearly two years, neared com- pletion. The call letters of Central’s station are WSVAX, and this station often con- tacted a similar one at Northern High School. Credit for planning and carrying out the meetings is largely due to the efficient offi- cers who were president, Floyd Wain- scott; vice president, Lewis Shobe; secre- tary, Walter Wierzbicki. Khem Club Interest ran high in the chemistry depart- ment during 1940-41, as Central’s chemists congregated fortnightly to carry out more advanced chemical experiments than they were able to perform in their regular class work. The members were selected on an honorary basis, it being necessary for them to have maintained a “B” average or better in their chemistry class work. Most of the meetings were centered around interesting experiments demonstrat- ed by members, but sometimes a field trip through a factory, laboratory or water plant provided a theme. Of the more diffi- cult experiments performed this year was one on vacuum distillation by Winston Wil- liams in which he proved that l’quids boil at lower temperatures under reduced nres- sure. Another demonstration, by Betty . Mathews was on “Making your own cos- metics.’’ All demonstrations were com Dieted under the careful supervision of Mr. Chester Henry who sponsored the group. The officers were: president, Ronald Rus- sell; secretary-treasurer, Betty Mathews. f i v j Central Y-Girls Alpha Rho Tau The Y-Girls have enjoyed a most success- ful year under the leadership of Miss Anne Goss and Miss Ruth Avery. Many interest- ing trips were planned, including a visit to the Art Institute and a sight-seeing tour through the Taystee Bread Company as the guests of the Hi-Y boys. The club was kept busy during February with the duties of hostess at the Mid-Winter Girl Reserve Con- ference, held in Flint this year. Among their many invaluable services to the student body, the Y-Girls have organ- ized what they call a “Big Sister” group. It is their purpose to aid every girl who be- comes a member of the student body in the middle of a semester to get acquainted and to find friends. The officers were president, Mary Alice Currie; vice president, Fay Glasco; secre- tary, Adelaide Lovelace; treasurer, Betty Augustine; programs, Carolyn Kraycar; social, Phoebe Dinsmore. The Alpha Rho Tau, under the sponsor- ship of Miss Margaret Hutchinson, was formed this year at the request of those art students who wished 1o become better ac- quainted with the work of their fellow artists and to make a detailed study of the works of the famous old masters. Among the varied activities of the 1940- 41 club, we find a trip to the Detroit Insti- tute of Arts by the charter members, a trip to Ann Arbor, a spring-time venture into the country to sketch nature’s beauties first hand, and a meeting held at the Flint Insti- tute of Arts. There are few organizations in Central who are not deeply indebted to the club for gay and colorful posters advertis- ing their productions or publications to the student body. The officers for the year were president, Catherine Mallott; vice president, Bob He - dershott; secretary, Jeanne Williams. Y GIRLS—Fir !

Nancy Stoger, Ethel Collins Belle Masque Society The Attic Players The Belle Masque society was organized in 1926 by Mrs. Helen Hardy Brown to affil- iate those interested in dramatics and for the promotion of good dramatics in the school and community. The club’s motto, “To promote better drama in the home and community,’’ has been well carried out dur- ing the past school year. Included in a maze of activities were four prominent speakers, a banquet, a Christmas party, and a tea-dance for the junior play cast. The club presented a skit in the Kal- eidoscope, and had two exchange programs with Northern. A Junior College drama group presented a one-act play at one of their meetings. For the last meeting of the year, the group held a picnic at which time the “Belle Masque Pin of Merit” was presented to the most outstanding non-senior member. The officers: Reid Torrey, president; Mary Huskey, vice president; Ted Creque and Polly Stone, secretaries. Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Maude Stewart Beagle, the Attic Players again came through the year with the largest membership of any organization in Central, and the enviable reputation of being one of the most active. Among the many enjoyable events participated in by the members were a fall “rushing nite,” a Christmas party, and a spring roller skating party. Much credit was due the following of- ficers who guided the club throughout the year: president, Lawrence Johns; vice pres- ident, Angeline Vojdik; secretary, Mary Ellen Malin; treasurer, Robert Woody; pledge mistress, Harriet Simons. The annual play “You Can’t Take It With You” was given March 20 and 21. It was a huge success and the profits went to the Student Union Fund. Also several one act plays were given for many Flint organiza- tions including “A Question of Figures” and “Make Room for Rodney,” which were two of the most outstanding of these.

Its purpose is to promote interest in the business world and the study of commercial subjects, and in order to be- come familiar with modern, progressive business methods and systems, they have made several trips through various commercial houses in the city. Stamp Club The Stamp Club, under the sponsorship of Miss Edna Stewert, held several interesting and informative meetings during the past year, the primary purpose of which, was to increase every member’s stamp collection by trading stamps. The club arranged several interesting displays in the trophy cases in the main lobby for the en- joyment of the student body. The Lewis Latin Club The Lewis Latin Club is composed of students who have maintained a “B” average or higher in Latin and who are actively interested in the cus- toms and culture of the Roman civilization. Among the worthwhile things accomplished by the club during the past year were a visit to the Art Institute and the donation of a Christmas basket. The club was very popular and initiated many members during the course of the year.

The group was sponsored by Mr. Robert Starmer. The purpose of this club is to acquaint students with the nature, uses, and problems of plastics. The material for use is purchased on a co- operative basis, thereby reducing the cost to the individual member. The members are allowed to work on whatever forms of plastic they wish. The officers are research, Robert Harsh; business, Melvin Parker; production, Cal Dexter; public relations, Ramon Replinger. Although the club was organized late in the year all of the boys looked forward to the continuance of their study and research next semester. Psychology Club Making its initial appearance this year, the Psychology Club broke the ground in a new field for Central High School. The main purpose behind its formation was the hope that Central students would become interested enough in this subject to establish it as part of the regular curriculum. In this they were partially successful, for it created a good deal of enthusiasm among the student body. The club undertook several projects. It sponsored a popularity poll of the teachers and analyzed the results by judging the qualities which had made the teachers popular. It also conducted an experiment to determine what the student desired in the curriculum. The results were that the members found out what they desired from a high school education, and what they thought they had missed while being educated.

Jamboree Thursday evening, February 6th, Central held its sixth annual Jamboree. The pro- duction, skillfully handled by Mr. Nap La- voie and Mr. Stan Broome, was heartily ap- proved by a large crowd. Following the events pictured here came the drawing for door prizes donated by Flint merchants. The grand prize of an Elgin wristwatch was won by Bryce Thomp- son. The remainder of the evening was spent swinging and swaying to the gay rhythm of the “juke box.” The men teachers playod a pojo game that had the audience practically ‘ rolling in the aislos. These three girls were among the porlormers of Miss Pat O'Grady's dancing classos that started the evening’s program and received an enthusiastic re- ception from a crowd of over 1,500 Mrs. Brown. Helen Van Nocker, Bud Fishier, Betty Babcock. Students Manage Radio Station Twenty fortunate Central students, selected be- cause of outstanding: ability shown in their public speaking classes, were treated to a rare privilege February 1, for during a period of twleve hours they were given virtually complete control of the Flint radio station, WFDF. From 6 :00 a.m. until 6 :00 p.m. the students carried on the activity of the station under the direction of Mrs. Helen Hardy Brown, their instructor, with no more assistance from the regular personnel than was absolutely necessary. In preparation for this unusual experiment, a tour of the station was made by the students at which time each was given an opportunity to thor- oughly acquaint himself with the various tasks and duties involved in his position. The separate groups assigned to the different types of work necessary to the daily broadcasting schedule of the station were station managers, Bud Fishier, Dick Coleman ; pro- gram directors, Marilyn Rundles, Barbara Ferris and Irene Sutton; technical staff, Ken Mattrass, Tom Church, and Bill Ware; advertising, Betty Doyle, Don Lamb and Virginia Roy; reporters, T. J. Moore and Ted Both; receptionists, Georgianna Dyer, Betty Babcock and Vera Cook; announcers, Dick Bryant, Wayne McFarlan, Elliott Henry and Helen Van Nocker. The experiment was mutually enjoyed by the station officials, whose kindness made the project possible, and the students, who were able to fur- ther their training in this interesting manner. Elliott Henry manages the controls r r Bill Johnson, Jean Chisholm, Most Popular Students Breaking all previous voting records, the student body of Central elected Bill Johnson and Jean Chisholm Indian Brave and Prin- cess in the annual contest sponsored by the Prospectus. The election was inaugurated about ten years ago by Maurie Cossman, and this year the 7000 votes cast were the most in its history. The way was paved for the final ballot- ing on March 26 by a preliminary election in which there were no restrictions on the candidates or eligibility to vote. Over two hundred individuals were suggested as can- didates, and from these the contest commit- tee, headed by Katherine Saites. determined the ten highest boys and ten highest girls. Their names appeared on the final ballot. The nine boy and nine girl runner-ups who formed the court of honor were led by Harriet Simons, mistress of ceremonies for the 1940 Kaleidoscope and popular Attic Player, and Jim Reeves, president of the senior class. Other high contestants were Ethel Collins and Chuck Mullin who re- ceived the third position after a nip and tuck battle with the leaders. Completing the court, chosen by the pre- liminary voting were Carolyn Kraycar, Hazel Martin, Louinia Mae McKinley, Jo- hanna Peukert, Nancy Steger, Joan West- cott, Dick Coleman, Dave Gault, Willard Hufstader, Laurence Johns, Auldin Nelson, Ronald Russell, and R. B. Stipes. Brown haired, blue eyed Bill Johnson is a graduating senior and during his high school career has won much fame as a first rate basketball player. Now 17 years of age, 6 foot 4 inches in height, and possessor of a “million dollar” smile, Bill is a favorite of many a feminine eye. Industrial Arts and engineering, how- ever, will hold his attention for the next few years at the University of Michigan. When asked what he thought of his being elected Indian Brave, he replied, “I think that it is about one of the highest honors you can get at Central. Being chosen Indian Brave was certainly an unexpected surprise and it is really appreciated.” Jean Chisholm has been prominent in athletics since her entrance to Central from Junior High School. An unsuccessful candi- date for student union vice-president last fall, she plans to get into the political battle again soon. In addition to her enviable sports record, she carried one of the leading parts of the junior play and received wide praise for her brilliant acting. Dinner- Dance...

Varsity Football The tribe completed the 1940 season with a total of three wins and six losses. The record isn’t too impressive, but the Indians were on the bad end of the breaks all year. Power in unlimited quantities was present but the only occasion on which it was seemingly used was the con- test with Bay City, when the team snapped out of a losing streak and upset a highly favored Trojan eleven. Coach Howard Auer did an excellent job in turning out as good a combination as he did in view of the fact that he and his assistants had only two returning letter-men from the preceding year around which to mold their team. Six of the players starting the Thanksgiving Day classic with Northern were juniors. This makes the prospects for next season promising, as these experienced veterans can serve as a nucleus for any group of players Auer wishes to use. Assisting in getting the team into shape were Jerry Udell, backfield coach, and Stan Broome, trainer. The mass of details accompanying such a job, however, were capably taken care of by Yenner Madaras, the student manager. lack Leach 1 i Tony Pekala VARSITY FOOTBALL SQUAD—First Row. left to right: ',oe Simor..

Franklin Maxwell and Harold Warner led the Central attack with Chuck Mullin playing a fine game at quarterback. Grand Rapids—Central went down to a 19-12 defeat at the hands of a strong Grand Rapids team. Central’s lack of experience was quite evident as they failed to score until the last period when Nelson’s passes began to click. Central’s chances were hurt by the absence of Mullin who was taking a West Point entrance examination. Lansing Central—Central was an improved team when they met the Big Reds of Lansing, but again their lack of experience led to a 13-2 defeat. Central’s only score came in the first period when Bob Quinsy blocked a Lansing punt which rolled over the goal for a safety. Nelson showed up well offensively while Mullin led the team in blocking and tackling. Saginaw Eastern—Meeting one of the conference’s strongest teams, Central was com- pletely outplayed as evidenced by the 39-6 score. The defeat, worst in Central’s history, did shed a few bright spots, namely Hugh Smale at center and Nelson at half-back who scored Central’s only touchdown late in the third quarter. Bay City—The tribe snapped out of their slump with a jolt as they defeated a highly favored Bay City team 7-0. Showing much power lacking in previous games, the tribe completely outplayed the visitors. Mort Leavitt was a standout in the line while the baekfield problem was erased by the fine playing of Mullin, Nelson, Dowd and Leach. Arthur Hill—The Lumberjacks held the Indians in subjection with comparative ease as illustrated by their smashing the Central line to bits. When Central did start to roll towards the opposition’s goal line, their passes were intercepted and they failed to chalk up a score along side of Arthur Hill’s 9 points. Pontiac—Central received its fifth defeat of the season under a deluge tlumped by Pontiac in the fourth quarter running the score to 25-6. This was the first time the Chiefs had beaten the Indians since Pontiac’s entry into valley competition in 1933. The touchdown was made by Nelson in the first quarter, assisted in the drive by Leach. Owosso—The Indians had to extend themselves considerably to defeat an Owosso eleven, that continually threatened the Indian goal line, by 7 points. The Trojan defense cracked open after being hit repeatedly by Nelson and Joe Simon. It was in this game that Simon was revealed as a first-rate back. Northern—The Viking team proved to be a true “irresistible force” as they seemingly scored 32 points at will. The versatile Northern attack beat the Tribe into defeat. Mullin’s punts helped the Indians slightly by moving the ball out of the territory near the goal markers. Howard Auer Head Coach i CROSS COUNTRY—First row.

Dividing into two teams, the local boys won a double victory on October 11. At Dort Field Rutilio Enzastiga led the first team to victory over Royal Oak, running 1 10 of a second slower than the track record set in 1938. At Saginaw the second squad scored a 22 to 36 win over Saginaw. Central continued its unequalled record by winning its eighth straight city cross-country championship over Northern at Dort Field on October 18. The score was 25 to 40. Enzastiga continued his brilliant running by pacing the field, finishing first, and setting a new course record. The team continued its excellent showing by literally running off with the 1940 Regional honors. Held at Dearborn on October 26, Centra! placed 7 men in the first 15. The highlight of the event was Enzastiga’s record breaking performance, his time being 10:31.5. The harriers concluded the ’40 season by finishing behind Royal Oak in the State meet. Central had previously beaten Royal Oak twice. The boys in action Varsity Basketball The varsity record of five wins and seven losses was not particularly good or bad. The Indians at the beginning of the season were forecast as the champions of the Saginaw Valley League, but they lacked the spark to spur them on and finished third. Saginaw was first and was followed by Northern, Pontiac, Bay City and Arthur Hill tied for second place. It seemed that in their first game of the regionals they were headed for a regional title when they trounced an unbeaten Al- pena quintet 40-28, but Central’s hopes were dashed, however, when Bay City edged out a victory 24-21. The Indians fought aggressively, and though the breaks were coming their way they failed to make the most of them. The failure of the team to capture the regional crown and advance to the state tournament marked the first time in several years that neither Central nor Northern was a participant in the state championship series. Towards the end of the season Evans put a number of juniors into the lineup, and their performance indicated that the 41-42 season would be a more successful one.

The City Championship Series Although a close struggle was forecast for the first game of the series it proved to be a walkaway for Northern, 32-9. The Indians became rattled with the close checking of the Vikings and because of lack of opportunities, rarely shot at the basket. Walt Gar- ret was the only one successful in scoring for the tribe. It was the second game that proved to be a real “thriller.” Coach Dick Evans’ squad went into the game with the purpose of breaking a string of six defeats at the hands of the Vikings. The excitement increased as the game went on and climaxed in the fourth quarter when the high score kept changing from one team to the other. The game ended with a score of 28-27— Central leading by one point. After evening the series to one game apiece, the Indians were defeated in the third game 21-30. The tribesmen led through the first half, but the Northern quintet bounced back in the third quarter and gained the upper hand. From then on the Vikings did not give up their lead.

Central was fortunate in having a fine sophomore basketball team again this year, and to Coach Jerry Udell is due the bulk of the credit. The sophomore squad is invaluable to our regular reserve and varsity teams, as it trains and develops skillful men for future varsity use. This season it was divided into two groups, the varsity and reserves. Included in the scalps which our warriors took were those of Clio, Bendle, Beecher, Birch Run, and Otter Lake — all strong Class B schools. The lads also battled the Flushing and Flint Tech teams in close, hard-fought games but came out on the short side of the score. After a slow start, the varsity won the last five games, finishing the season with a mark of nine wins and five losses. The most outstanding sophomore varsity players included: Tubby Williams, high point man with 87 points, Joe Ponsetto, James Wright, Steve Sisovsky, Junior Tucker, and Doug Mintline. Among the outstanding players on the reserve squad were Bob Myers, Jack Kennedy, and Arlyn Boomer. Central can well be proud of its 40-41 soph team and their likeable coach, Jerry Udell.

Stan Broome, coach, lacit Fagan, Carl Pollock, manager Tennis Tennis, though considered a minor sport, is as hard, fast, and interesting as anything offered in the athletic program. Skill and quick thinking mark a good player. Coached by Mr. Clement Rowe, Central’s “racquet- eers” consistently place high. The tennis tournament consists of six sin- gles and three doubles matches. The boys playing the singles are paired together so that a smooth working combination is form- ed to take part in the doubles. The first indi- vidual to win two sets or two out of three sets wins the match, and as each match counts as a point, the team getting a score of five matches out of a possible nine wins the tournament. In 1941 the team ran their string of vic- tories up to 30 straight matches. Rowe attri- butes his success to the fact that he starts the netters as sophomores and by the time they are seniors they have developed into good varsity material. The tank team ended the season with a record of two wins and seven defeats. This is a better showing, however, than the teams of the previous two years have turn- ed in. Swimming is a newly inaugurated sport at Central and is growing in popular- ity and recruits. The only close meet of the year was the one with Pontiac and we were on the short end of a 43-41 score. The In- dians became more confident and beat their next opponent, Lansing Eastern. In the region a Is, held at Dearborn, Stacey DeCamp qualified in the hundred yard free style, and Bill McTaggart qualified in the hundred and fifty yard individual medley. In the state meet DeCamp took a fifth place by about half a second. These two fellows along with a host of other promising young swimmers will be future members of Coach Milholland’s squad, and by all appearances more meets will be registered in the win column.

Baseball Golf With a turnout that set an all time record for baseball candidates Coach Stan Broome began the task of molding a squad indoors because adverse weather conditions contin- ually delayed outdoor practice sessions. The Indians were city champions and third in the Saginaw Valley last year, but plagued by bad breaks in 1941, Broome had difficulty in getting a winning combination. Frequently one run was the margin of victory — one run that WE didn't have. Jack Stallings and J. C. Ross carried the pitching duties very capably, but as only two other lettermen returned, Broome had to form a team from unseasoned players. The shortened school term forced the Tribe to play from two to three games a week, in- cluding Saturdays, in order to complete their card before June 5. Golf, although not a major sport, helps to uphold the fine athletic traditions of the school. The team is coached by Mr. Sulho Nurmi, who has turned out squad after squad of fine golfers. The team, as usual, met with keen competition and came out with flying colors. The group is made up of boys who, furnishing their own equipment, meet teams from other schools and play on an individual and team basis; that is, the score of each member is used in computing the score for the entire team. When the struggle for the city champion- ship went to four matches because of a tie, the Indian team beat Northern in the last to carry off the city headpiece. Aiding considerably in this victory was the extremely low score of R. B. Stipes, the low point man of the season. GOLF TEAM—First Row. Lelt to Right: Bud McKinley, R B.

Max Harrison 7 1 n 1 1 Varsity Track Under the able direction of Mr. Francis Smith, head coach, and Mr. John Millhol- land the track team had another successful season. The sweetest victory for the Tribe was the win over Saginaw when for the first time in twelve years the Indians turned the tables and handed the Saginaw squad a 58-46 de- feat. The Indian squad was stronger than the score indicates, for they took eight of the twelve first places. The Centralites also copped the city championship crown with comparative ease for the tenth consecutive season. In 1941 Rutilio Enzastiga, Joe Scukanec, and Bryce Thompson were sure point win- ners in the mile run and most of th? time they led the rest of the pack across th finish line. In the half mile Henry Clark and Steve Laporte made excellent records. Neil Quinlan handled the quarter about th best while John Thompson took the laurels for the speed in the hundred yard dash. Auldin Nelson was number one man in the low hurdles and Robert Roffins, though in- experienced man, was Central’s main threat in the high hurdles. The relay team of Nel- son, Gray. Thompson, and Quinlan, one of the best that Central has ever had. took many firsts for the Tribe. Field sports, so named because they do not include running, are shot put. pole vault, and high jump. The souad was somewhat weak in this division, but the strength of the running department counter-balanced this weakness. Ste' e Evanoff heaved the shot put; Bob MacGuffi was the pole vauRer and John Turner led the competition in the high jump.

Girls Sports Activities Offer Varied Program Physical Education plays an important part in the life of a sports-minded girl at Central. Except for those girls taking music or debating courses it is a required subject for graduation. Miss Bunce, Miss Talbot, and Miss Williams have charge of all regu- lar gym classes and extra-curricular sports activities. In the regular gym classes, folk-dancing, volleyball, exercises, swimming, and base- ball are popular pastimes. Also in the spring, Mott Pentathlon is sponsored for girls wishing more strenuous work, and medals are awarded to the winners. The most interesting part of the work of the physical education department is the extra- curricular sports program which now offers five major and ten minor sports each year. Coinciding with this program is the Girls’ Athletic Association whose membership consists of girls who have earned fifty points or more towards a letter. This association decides on requirements for “F’s” and elects managers for the different sports activities. This year there was an excellent turn-out and plenty of enthusiasm for sports. The sophomores outnumbered the juniors and seniors in every sport, but the older girls redeemed themselves by downing the “sophs” in the actual play-offs. LIFESAVING CLASS—Prone: Ruth Lavely.

Hockey Hockey, the first major sport of the year, was brought to a close with the annual Hockey banquet presided over by Fay Glasco, president of the G. A. A. Miss Mildred Bunce at this time awarded twelve first letters, two sec- ond letters, and four third letters. Each class had its own first and second team. Betty Letts was Hockey manager. Basketball When the cold weather drives the brave hockey players indoors, basketball makes a welcome appearance. There were four first teams: Senior, Junior-Senior, Junior, and Sophomore. The second teams this year were divided into two leagues. League A played on Monday night and League B on Wednes- day. The Sophomores and Juniors took all honors in the play- offs with Junior Reds defeating Senior Red, and Sophomore Red downing the Junior-Senior combination. In the second teams the winners of each league — the Green team and the Blue team — played off with Greens beating the Blues.

Maxine Somers and Doris Sawhill served as president and secretary. Bowling Howling proved to be one of the most popular indoor activities this winter.

The sponsors, Miss Mildred Hodges and Miss Cathryn Lee, rode with the group, giving them excellent instruction. A song- writting contest was held in order to obtain songs suitable for singing while on the trails. Phyllis Wooden and Virginia McMann were the winners, and they were presented with beautiful riding crops donated by the sponsors. ving On October 17 twenty-four girls enrolled in the increasingly popular lifesaving class. Although several did not finish the season, ten were examined, and nine passed the tests on April 17 for senior or junior lifesaving awards. These tests included written and oral portions in addition to practical demonstrations in the water on the material they had studied all winter in their Thursday night meetings.

Baseball With spring a Central maiden’s heart turns to baseball, and a large number of girls turned out for this popular major sport. The season was short, but every game was packed with the thrills that make base- ball the favorite sport of Central as well as the nation. Marge Bennett was the manager. Tennis An exciting elimination tournament was the main attraction in girls’ tennis this year. Sixteen girls signed up and divided into couples for the play-offs. Unfavorable weather prevented many of the finals but a good deal of fun was had by all. The girls played on Wednesday night at the Belmont courts which were secured for their use. Archery Archery went co-educational to a small degree this year with sixteen girls and two boys enrolling. Freda Bernard was mana- ger of the club which met on Tuesdays and Thursdays, while Miss Williams was the sponsor. Girl s Golf Club The Girls’ Golf Club, under the sponsor- ship of Mrs. Bessie Hemmingway, was opened to all girls interested in golf. The club was divided into two groups, beginners and advanced. They met once a week to practice on one of their favorite greens, and points toward a letter were given for each game in which they partici- pated. F-Club The F Club is composed of all of Central’s athletically inclined girls who have won sports letters.The chief project of the group this year, as in former years, was to sell candy at athletic events and school parties held at Central. Miss Mildred Bunce was their vibrant leader, who was at all times ready with a new plan for entertainment. SOPHOMORE HOCKEY—First Row: W Ima Garvie, Beth Fraser. Thelma DeMott.

Kaleidoscope One of the big successes of the year was the sixteenth annual Kaleidoscope whose general theme was the comparison of life in 1870 with that of 1940. The general direc- tor of the three and one-half hour produc- tion of six acts was Mrs. Maude Stewart Beagle. Acts not pictured on these pages were those by the Symphony Orchestra, Band, Glee Club, and A Cappella Choir; the “Roll- ing Down to Rio chorus, a terriffic swing act, was followed by a La Conga line, led by Beth Cull and Bill Lundy, bringing a pleasant evening to a close.

This year they chose the heart-warming, yet laugh-packed hit, “Anne of Green Gables.” The story is centered around Anne, a poor orphan endowed with a vivid imagination, who has been sent to a kindly old couple at Green Gables in the person of a boy. Not being the boy for whom they asked, Anne is denounced and is in danger of being returned to the or- phanage. After much controversy, Anne is finally allowed to remain at Green Gables where she experiences many interesting adventures. W. C. Crick was production manager. Justine Grout. Helen Van Nocker.

Senior Play— Loose Ankles One of the most hilarious comedies presented in our auditorium in many years was “Loose Ankles” which was produced by the Senior Class May 1. 2, and 3. The plot centered around find- ing a husband for Ann, who, according to her grandmother’s will, found it necessary to have a husband so that her family could inherit a large estate. The repartee of the lines sent even the cast into gales of laughter during rehearsals, and Mrs. Brown, the director, said the play was one of the most successful presented by any senior cast.

I - � I � • 2 1-1� 4 a 1 Cottons are fashionable for summer Style Show Before a large audience in the auditor- ium the Central girls’ clothirg classes and the boys’ foods class presented the nine- teenth annual Spring Style Show. The clothes which the girls modeled were made under the direction of the Misses Carr, Downes, White, and Stone, who also super- vised the planning of the show. The Clothing I classes modeled cotton dresses, the more advanced classes, silks and woolens, while those most expert show- ed formats and lined coats and suits. The boys modeled the latest in men’s wear for spring as Kenneth Rosebush an- nounced the outstanding features of the smart clothing displayed and explained to the crowd what a well-dressed man should wear in 1941. What the well-dressed man should wear. The more advanced classes make suits, coats, and dresses from silks and woolens. A smart spring suit and coat. For evening lounging or beach wear. Some attractive formals. Central’s band under the direction of Mr. Franklyn S. Weddle is one of our most talented and active organizations. For purposes of sports and special events a marching band is made up of the male members of the concert band and a few players from the second band. Many new marching formations were introduced this year under the supervision of Mr. Robert Richardson, drill-master. Among its many activities were an act in the Kaleidoscope, an annual school concert in which the band, orchestra, and choir took part, partici- pation in the Saginaw Valley Rand Festival at Owosso and the Michigan State Music Festival at Lansing.

On May 15, 16. and 17, the orchestra played host to and participated in the National and Regional Orchestra Contest. There were groups here from Illinois, Indiana, and many other states in the first national contest of any sort held in Flint since 1929.

Bloch. It has had a steady growth and there are now 65 members on its roster. The girls are awarded pins after serving one and one half years in the Glee Club, providing they are in good standing. The Glee Club is frequently invited to sing for various groups through- out the state. This year it appeared at several churches, at Clio’s Fine Arts Festival, in the Kaleidoscope, and participated in the Saginaw Valley Music Festival.
