WELLWOOD, our Skipper , who for U many moons has been the chief of our tribe, we dedicate this Prospectus. In the early months of 1943, Mr. Wellwood underwent an operation which left him in a weakened condition for some time. Something seemed amiss in Central's teepee without the Chief, our able counsellor and kind friend. We looked forward to welcoming our Chief back in the fall. He is a part of Central High School. He belongs in our teepee. Mr. Wellwood did return for a short time + until our Medicine Man said Ugh must have long rest, Chief come back good as new. And that's exactly what happened. Our Chief went away for a long rest, part of it being spent in Florida. All the Braves and Princesses in the tribe are making ready to welcome him back next fall. There'll be a big Pow Wow and much happiness in our teepee when he returns.

HOWGS. jf Student Council The officers and members of the Student Council, a democratic governing body made up of Central High School students, were elected in the fall of the school year by Student Union members. Although the cam- paign speeches were eliminated this year, enthusiasm accompanying the election was undiminished. The winning candidates for all-school of- fices were: Student Union president, Sumner Howard: vice-president, lack Cojeen: record- ing secretary, Barbara Olsen: corresponding secretary, Shirley Givens. These officers preside at the Student Council meetings. Council meetings are usually held the latter half of the third hour, and in these meetings, school business is discussed. The Student Council members, officers of the school, and Miss Grace Pinel, the Council's sponsor, attend the meetings. The Council elects certain of its members to act as heads of the different committees which handle special phases of our school life. The Financial Committee, headed by Don Hall, has charge of the money of the three classes, and should a class wish to use money from its funds, it must first consult the Council. If the Council approves, Miss Pinel's final approval is required. The numerous parties throughout the year were planned by the Social Committee, headed by Elinor Bundles. The committee used some novel ideas in handling our parties this year, all of which have worked very successfully. The Welfare Committee in charge of public safety, sees that students don't walk on the lawn and are orderly in the halls. Shirley MacPhee directed this committee. The Activities Committee supervises ath- letics, music, art, and all other sidelights of a well-rounded school life. lim McTaggart was head of this committee. This year the Student Council passed a rule which allows all Student Union mem- bers to bring one guest to the dances by purchasing guest tickets. A Welcoming Com- mittee was also organized by the Council: its duties are to acquaint new students with Central High School and help them to get over that first strange feeling. The Student Council was responsible for mailing Arrow Heads to Central students now in service. SUMNER HOWARD presided at all student assemblies. up PROSPECTUS W' .pri Sophomore Qfficers DOC HODGINS Central's sophomore president is called Doc because of his ambition to become a surgeon and because his initials are D. R.- his name being Dallas Randolph Hodgins. This six-footer has brown hair and eyes half way between green and blue. He enjoys reading or playing baseball, and rates Moonlight Becomes You tops. And Doc's wild about anything red-even his favorite food is catsup. He dislikes only the way girls stick together. School he really goes for, taking five solids. He claims, however. that he is really lazy. PAM STEFFLER Our sophomore vice president is little, but slim and attractive. Five feet three inches tall with matching brown hair and eyes, this Centralite is a member of Thalians and Belle Masque and is a good little actress. There's never a dull moment when Pam's around. She's full of pep, loves to swim and is con- tinually knitting. Glenn Miller's version of Who, powder blue, and chicken and mashed potatoes are among her favorites. Her only pet peeve is people who walk on the wrong side of the street. THE 1944 H83 IOYCE TITUS If you see a gal eating gingersnaps, milk, and mush, it is probably Ioyce Tilus, this year's sophomore secretary. She' really goes in for eating mush in a big way: in fact, she says that it is her hobby. Ioyce is five feet three and a half inches tall,-has greenish eyes, and thinks under a nice covering of black hair. She quite often sees red, but only because it's her favorite color. Her only real dislike is sissies. When Harry Iames isn't playing Poinciana, loyce is content with volleyball or marathon swimming. SUE PARKER The heap big lnjun who has charge of the sophomore treasury this year is Sue Parker. When Sue is not counting money, she is eat- ing chocolate ice cream or playing baseball. Suzie, as she is nicknamed, stands five feet four inches tall under a mop of light brown hair. Her blue eyes always light up when Kay Kaiser's band plays Long Ago and' Far Away. Suzie's favorite color is blue and Mr. Thomas Davey is at the top of her favorite teacher list. She likes to go to school but not to work, and her pet peeve is people who brag.

Field Hockey Field Hockey, a popular major sport, has been played at Central since 1928. Ninety girls took part in the games this year. A team includes five forwards, three backs, two full-backs, and a goal-keeper: the game being played on a field approximately the size of a football gridiron. The Senior I-'ted team proved to be cham- pions this year. They did not lose a single game throughout the season. Charlotte Gregory, captain, led this team. Other mem- bers were: Virginia Bearinger, Mary Burkholder, Sudie Callis, Paula Davey, Lora Germaine, Charlotte Gregory, Catherine Helgeby, lane McDowell, Ruth lack, Eleanor Bundles, leane Sills, Katherine Stecker, and Nancy Wait. Basketball This sport is among the most popular major sports in the school, having a total membership this year of ninety-nine girls. The Senior Reds were the winning first team. The second-place winners, the Senior Blacks, challenged and defeated the Senior Reds in a post-season game, which was tied four times, and won by a single basket. The champions, captained by Charlotte Gregory, included Ioan Broome, Charlotte Gregory, Pat Ferguson, Leora Reed, Mar- jorie Kelly, Lora Germaine, Dorothy Brown, and Catherine Helgeby. The challengers, captained by Irene Pacak, included Iune Arrand, Harriet Bohl- ing, Doreen Grenfell, Mary Lou Hawkes, Phyllis Mulliner, Irene Pacak, Eleanor Run- dles, and Marjorie Walworth. 4 y Irene Pacak As Hockey Manager, Irene had many duties to perform. During the chilly fall days, she had to see that the field was lined, had to keep the balls in good painted condition, and to see that all equipment was returned to the barn. When the teams played, she had to take attendance and keep the score and time while the game was going on. Marjorie Walworth Marge, the Basketball Manager this year, had the hard task of helping to referee games and keeping the equipment in good condi- tion. Blowing up basketballs may seem like fun in writing, but just ask Marge what it's like. She, too, had to take the attendance at each meeting besides keeping the score and time.

The timely theme was America and Her Allies. Peggy Grayum and Frank Miller acted as master and mistress of ceremonies, unifonned as officers in the U. S. Navy and WAVES, respectively. A very impressive sight was made by the opening chorus as they marched up on the stage to the tune of Victory Polka in the uniform of WAVES and Ensigns. Frances Sullivan, Pat Drewyer. Pat McGovern, Shirley MacPhee, Catherine Peggy Grayum and Frank Miller, popular Seniors, were mistress and master ot ceremonies. In their Navy uniforms, they heightened the pa- triotic note which gave the 1943 Kaleidoscope its strong appeal.

Xt. n QL-..f,l-:?:5l,' L l' Kaleldoscope ,Q l The Central High School Orchestra, the Concert Band, and the A Cappella Choir represented school talent in music with excellent perfonnances. Mr. Walter Bloch directed the Orchestra and Choir, while the Band was under the baton of Mr. Edwin Merrill, its new conductor. The Drama Department, under the direc- tion of Mrs. Helen Brown, presented a one- act play, The Wallflower Cuts In. One of the highlights of the 1944 Kaleido- scope, a pantomime called A Chinese Love Story, was presented by the Belle Masque. Audiences will long remember the humor of the skit in which an overtumed bench represented a boat, a plank across two stumps was a bridge, and most honorable souls ascended to Heaven by means of a ladder. Two very entertaining front stage acts were Magical Moments in which Iohn Atkins awed his audience with magic, and Famous Personalities given by Fred Brownell. A colorful and graceful spectacle was portrayed by the Girls' Ballet in their presen- tation of A Russian Fantasy, a romantic dance pantomime.

The bridal party starts for the church when suddenly a band of gypsies arrives. The leader is Feodor in disguise. He recog- nizes Sonya and waves the scarf she had given him when he left her, but her bride- groom drags her off to the church. Later, she retums and meets Feodor and renews her love in a beautiful dance. All ends happily when the parents realize who F eodor is and the lovers are reunited. The Attic Players set forth their talent in an amusing one-act mystery play, Nobody Sleeps. , The last act consisted of Uncle Sam on the Home Front, a presentation of Frank Swoontra, and several pieces by Duffy Martin's Orchestra.

Dale Football Although the figures show three victories and four defeats, Central nevertheless had a fine football squad. The vigor and enthusi- asm possessed by the squad has never been surpassed by previous Central teams. The squad will lose many by graduation, but the new recruits with the experience gained this year should make Central one of the top Valley squads of the 1944 season. Coach Howard Auer, as usual, fashioned a strong forward wall while Ierry Udell had a superb backiield. Stan Broome, often called the spark plug of the coaching staff. assisted as trainer. Dale Alderson, now in the armed forces. was one of Central's mainstays. His boom- ing punts carried far down the field and he was rarely stopped as he plunged through the line to pick up needed yardage. Dale was also called upon to do the placement kicking for the Tribe. Don Skaff was the Tribe quarterback and was elected captain of the team. Don did a good job calling the signals all season. Norm Iones, Ben Adams. Bud Pratt, and Sam Earley were exceptional runners while 'Mac' McManama, Glen Hatfield and Don Skaff were used primarily in blocking for the ball carrier. Both teams fought savagely. The Vikings battled with every resource to stave oft defeat. THE1944 my vii'-1 Football As usual, pessimists thought the forward wall would be weak, but these critics were forced to change their minds as the season progressed. Outstanding linemen of the year were A1 Thrower, Rex Parsell, Arlen Bloomer, Mark Lynch, Eugene Woods, Dave Elston, Elmo Gratsch, Bud Oxley, Don Cummings and Al Iohnson. Under the lights at Atwood Stadium Central thumped Bay City 25-0. Norm Iones tallied twice and Alderson and MacManama once each. For the first touchdown, Iones went around his own right end and Alderson failed to convert. MacManama lugged the ball to pay dirt from the two-yard line: Alder- son again failed to convert. Alderson then intercepted a pass and raced 70 yards for a touchdown. Skaff passed to Parsell for the conversion. Iones again went around end and made the final tally. In the Turkey Day classic Central was pitted against a powerful Northem squad. Central went into the game the underdogs and when the final gun had sounded Atwood Stadium rocked with Central cheers as the squad cams outsafwinner 13-Q. .1 X t... Nts...

The Iournal photographer was alert to make this excellent shot. Football The Vikings won the toss and elected to kick. Fusi booted the ball to Norm lones on the Red-Black seven. Iones raced up the field to his twenty, and turned sharply to the southern outside line. With superb blocking Iones got to the mid-field stripe where Law- rence nearly tackled him. However, Iones wrenched away, eluded Richiger and romped 93 yards for a touchdown. Alderson made the conversion. This was the first time Northern ever had been scored upon from kickoff. Northern threatened the Central goal but Gratsch recovered a fumble on his own six: Alderson punted 49 yards from the end zone. In the third period Lawrence threw a pass but Alderson picked it out of the air and raced 65 yards for a touchdown. In the attempt for the extra point the ball skidded off his foot, which ended the day's scoring. Besides the glory for their school, Central and Northern fought for the fourth Wildanger trophy. This trophy was donated by Dr. A. I. Wildanger, and is permanently given to the school which wins the city football title for three years in a row. Northern has already retired three of the prizes, and had one leg on the present cup. Central got their name first on the cup, but that win was nullified last year when the Vikings won, 19 to 0. The Tribe victory this year nullifies North- ern's leg on the present cup. The only Tribe threat in the race for the trophy was in 1931 and 1932, the only time that we have won twice in succession. How- ever the state champion Northern team swept the Indians in 1933. THE 1944 429, Central rooters were wildly stirred throughout the game. Northern showed fine form, but could not hold the inspired Indians. Reserve Football The Reserve football team accomplished its primary purpose this year, which is not winning games, but rather building future varsity material. Mr. Homer Parker and Mr. Iames Richards. the coaches, spent many hours every night teaching the fundamentals of the game to the fledglings. The team opened the season at Owosso, losing a hotly contested battle 13 to 5. Corunna came to Dort Field to lose by one point, 14 to 13. This game was marked by an outstanding Central goal line stand in the closing minutes of the game. Doc Bibbs and Iim Fulwood did most of the ground gaining for the Indians, F ulwood scoring one touchdown. The second touchdown came on a pass to Bill Walker. Bibbs kicked both points. St. Matthews, parochial league champions, trounced the Tribe 27-0. During the first half the breaks were even, but the Matts got rolling in the second half and piled up a top- heavy score. Central proved no match for St. Michaels, a heavier team, and was drubbed, 20 to 0. For the closing game of the season the Indians battled with M. S. D. in a close and tough contest. Central came out on the short end of a 13 to 12 score. Throughout the season the line play of Fred Saunders and Bob Benton, along with the kicking of Karl Smith, pulled the Indians out of many holes. Honorary captains were Mort Smythe, acting captain and quarterback, and Karl Smith.

Although Mr. LaVoie started out with an inexperienced group of boys, the Cross Country team met with fair success in the 1943 season. With Stewart Cohoon the only letter man returning to Mr. LaVoie's fold, he had to groom several inexperienced boys to take the place of graduated runners. In the only meets the harriers took part in at Dort Field, they emerged with impressive victories over Saginaw Eastern and Sagi- naw Arthur Hill. Traveling, however, did not seem to bring the Central boys the good luck that was hoped for. In the only trip taken in regular competition they lost a close contest to a strong Royal Oak squad. Winning 6 points gave Central an undis- puted Sth place in the State Meet which ended the season for the Indians. Beside Stewart Cohoon, 3 letter winner, the Varsity included: George Benford, Bob Magwiss, Lawrence DeCourval, George Buben, Iohn Vochies and Harry Shouda. The squad was managed by Henry Faiola.

The specialty of the Belle Masque is short plays given for school organizations and outside clubs. The biggest event in the season for the members of this club was joining the National Thespians. Belle Masque is the only dram- atic club in Flint to have received this honor. The members had a joint meeting with Northern in the last part of the second semester, and their annual picnic. The officers this year were: Shirley Mc- Phee, president: Dick Hallwood, vice presi- dent: Barbara Pritchard, secretary: and Dave Iennings, treasurer. Grease Paint Club The Grease Paint Club is one of the most active clubs in Central, as they are respon- sible for all make-up work for Kaleidoscope, the Iunior Play, the School Opera, the Attic Players, the Senior Play, and the Flint Civic Opera. Mr. Thomas Davey is the sponsor. Each year, four Sophomores are taken into the club and trained to characterize faces. Make-up is precision work which must be well-planned and carefully worked out. Members cooperate fully without discrimina- tion because of office or popularity: all that counts here is skill and artistry. The Seniors usually make-up more complicated charac- ters, the Iuniors less difficult ones, and the Sophomores work on the bit or straight parts. This year the offices all fell to Seniors.

After the de- parture oi Miss Lewis from the faculty, Mrs. Ada Babcock took over. At the initiation pot luck supper held at Barbara Gerholtz's residence 35 new mem- bers were initiated. Slides of Home were shown at the meeting when 80 eligibles came, much to the surprise of everyone. Officers for this year are: president, Nancy Waite: vice-president, Sally Iacks: treasurer, Booxie Iackson: secretary, Ioan Tremain: publicity manager, William Schultz. Alpha Rho Tau The Alpha Rho Tau is sponsored by Mrs. Margaret Hutchinson. Phyllis Mulliner was the president of the club, with Dolores Espi- nosa, vice president: Ierry Williams, secre- tary: and Esther Yedger, treasurer. The club painted twenty-five shuffleboard games for the Red Cross, and made posters advertising school events, and war bond and waste paper drives. Covers for the Kaleidoscope and Opera programs were made in addition to the Opera scenery. The event of the year was a unique lec- ture by Lucienne Bloch Dirnitroff and Stephen Dimitroff. The talk was based on the paint- ing of the mural by the world famous Diego Rivera at Rockerfeller Center.

Various entertainment is offered to the members at the meetings. Among these are movies, and lately the club has attempted to have lectures by various speakers. The members also spend time in Central's gym. At almost all of the activities in Central the Hi-Y members act as ushers and take tickets. Each day after sixth hour the Mohawk Hi-Y emptied the waste paper baskets set out in the hall by teachers. This plan has been adopted to aid the paper salvage cam- paign and also to obtain funds for sending boys to camp. In doing this the club collected about 300 pounds of paper a week. Membership in the Hi-Y is open to any boy interested in service to the school. Booker T. Washington Hi-Y The Booker T. Washington Hi-Y, sponsored by Mr. Robert Richardson, is one of the three Hi-Y clubs in Central. It's object is the pro- motion of better school activities for boys. The club meetings are in room 113 or in the gymnasium, where they play basketball games and other games or go swimming, according to the program they wish to follow for the day. At the beginning of the year Boyd West was president: however, when he was called into the army, the vice president, Floyd Callahan, took his place. Donald Robbins held the office of secretary for the year, and the treasurer was Ernest Vincent. The Hi-Y's basketball team was led by Kenneth Dones, captain. BOOKER T.

They send a qirl to the summer conference at Camp Tyrone. Cheerleaders The 1943-44 cheerleading squad was for- tunate to have half its members from last year returning. The lettermen were: Bernard Krotzer, Ierry Willett, and co-captains Ken Smith and Bob Irvine. The newcomers were: Iack Standley, Fred Fiebernitz, William Schwartz, Kenneth Burdick, and Owen Iackson. Mr. Amtsbuechler selected eight boys out of the numerous candidates for the position. The candidates were informed that they would have to practice two times a week from September to March. To qualify for a letter, a cheerleader must have participated at all sports events. Much of the school spirit shown at these events during the 1943-44 season should be attributed to these boys.

Girls' F Club F Club is an organization of Central girls who have excelled in sports and, thereby, earned at least one letter. All members belong to the Student Union and have main- tained a C average in scholarship. Presentation of letters to F Club members was made on April 12, during the fourth hour, in the girls' gymnasium. Two fourth- letter awards were made. Receiving the fourth letter for earning 1250 points is the highest award that can be given to a girl in Central, as in the history of Central not more than 9 or 10 have been given. The two hon- ored girls were Catherine Helgeby and Charlotte Gregory. Miss Bunce presented the letters, and also the new officers of the F Club, who had been elected at a meeting held at the home of Ioan Broome. The new officers for the rest of the year are: president, Ioan Broome: vice- president, Charlotte Gregory: secretary, Mary Lou Hawke: and treasurer, Lora Germaine. First letters for 500 points were given to Isabelle Babb, Catherine Brown, Pat Fergu- son, Evelyn Francis, Beverly Henderson, Leora Reid, Norma Tanner, Barbara Olson, Marjorie Walworth, and Dorothy Willson. Second letters for 750 points were given to Lois Bush, Harriett Bohling, Nancy DuBois, and Lora Germaine. Third letters for 1000 points were given to Irene Pacak and Lora Germaine. This fine club has always succeeded in promoting and upholding high standards of health and good, clean sportsmanship. Miss Mildred Bunce and Miss Nadine Bell are the club sponsors. Girls' Athletic Association The Girls' Athletic Association is an organ- ization of Central High School girls who have earned at least 50 points toward their sports letters. All who belong are members of the Student Union and have a grade average of C or above. During the semesters of '43 and '44 under the excellent guidance of Miss Nadine Bell and Miss Mildred Bunce, many activities were offered such as field hockey, basket- ball, volleyball and softball, which were C393 major sports and offered more points than the minor sports, which included tennis, archery, badminton, bowling, fencing, and hiking. The pool was used on Wednesdays for Marathon Swimming lfive miles? and Life Saving. Also, there was much opportunity throughout the two semesters for girls to improve their style of swimming because of the instruction given. The club president for the year was Carrie Creque.

Henry Minarik, Elmo Gratsch, Chester Wil- kenson, and Neil Rohner were brought up from the reserve team. Don Skaff was elected as team captain. In the warm-up game with Lansing East- ern, which opened the regular season's play, Central was trounced 31-20. The Indians then played a scrapping Owosso team on their own floor and edged them 26-24. Over the Christmas holidays against Owosso Cen- tral came out on the short end of a 29-18 score. Pontiac proved easy meat for the Red-Black as they trimmed the Chiefs 32-26. PAUL FOWLER Basketball Manager 4423 Don Skafl and Bob Lambert paced the Indians to a victory over Bay City. Skaif hit for I3 points, while Lambert was runner-up for 10. Although the Tribe edged the Vikings 33-30 in the first game ot the city series, they later lost the city championship by dropping the next two games to an inspired Northern team. Central again drubbed the Pontiac Chiefs, 48-l9, but Arthur Hill and Saginaw Eastem beat the Indians, the scores being 33-27 and 49-42, respectively. The season's results against Valley com- petition Were seven games won and five lost. Including the tournament and pre-season results, the total was nine games won and eight lost. BEGIONALS Flint Central won its first regional basket- ball tournament in four years, after finishing third in the Valley standings. Pontiac, the Indians' first victim in the Regionals, proved to be an easy mark for the Redskins a third time, having been beaten by a large margin twice in Valley play. In the second round Central was held in check by a fighting Port Huron team for the first half, but the Redskins if E X w l 7 5 1944 Basketball Season put on a third period rally to win by an eleven-point margin, the score being 30-19. However, in the State quarter finals, Central was defeated in the last minute of the game with Arthur Hill after nearly tying the score. Dick Rifenburg, stellar all-state center, tossed in two field goals for the Hillites to decide the issue, the final tally being 40-35. Arthur Hill went on to win the State Championship. RESERVES The hard - hitting Indian Basketball Re- serves built up a fine record of ten wins and three defeats. Both teams which whipped our boys, Bay City and Northern, were beaten in the return contests. Northem is the only team to outpoint our boys twice. After losing a hard-fought battle to North- ern in their first game, the Indians bounced back to wreak vengeance on the Vikings to the tune of 50 points, the final score being 50-27. This evening of the count caused the teams to fight it out once more for the Little City Championship. In the rubber game Northem eked out a three-point margin in the last minute to take the series 2-1. Oviatt, although closely pursued by Ray Steffan, was top scorer with 99 points. Steftan hit the hoops for 95. This year's reserve squad was composed of Bob Oviatt, Wally Knobloch, Ray Steffan. Mark Lynch, Iesse Thomas, Al lohnson, Bill Walker, Warren Bunyan, lack Morningstar, Barry Tillage and Asher Yaffee.

Girls' Pep Band A new music organization which began this semester after years of absence due to the lack of girls and instrumentation is the Girls' Pep Band. It has done a very fine job of adding to Central's music department throughout the year. This band played for the War Chest Drive, many send-offs for draftees and also the THE1944 C443 home basketball games. This group of girls was organized and directed by Irene Ador- gan, and was sponsored by Mr. Edwin I. Merrill. The War Council awarded the band the award for building morale in music through- out the nation. Pep Meeting On March first, all loyal Centralites were assembled on the cafeteria steps attending the mass pep meeting before the final North- ern-Central basketball game. Sumner Howard, who was master of cere- monies, got the Indians into mood for some cheers which could be heard for blocks. Sgt. Richard Primrose, U. S. M. C., former Central basketball player, gave the crowd some words of encouragement, as did Mr. Vercoe and Team Captain Don Skaff. The meeting improved the fighting spirit of the Centralites, and cheering results at the game were fine. Iamboree The annual Iamboree held at Central at the close of last semester was a huge suc- cess, with an audience numbering seventeen hundred. In the usual manner, the doors of both gyms were thrown open to accommo- date the dancers after other entertainment had taken place. The antics of the Central faculty made up the greater part of the entertainment, much to the amusement of the spectators. Some of the feats accomplished by the faculty were a roller skating exhibition, a demonstration of an old-fashioned evening, a marshmallow eating contest, a cracker eating contest, and. of course, the annual pie eating contest, which was won by our basketball coach, Dick Evans. The old fashioned evening, in which Stan Broome, Ierry Udell, Nap LaVoie. and other teachers took part was brought to a successful close by the hannony of the Barber Shop Queertette. Some of the other entertainers were the Flint Park Roller Skating Club, and special numbers by Marjorie Sperry, Ieanine Kime and Pat Robinson. The party then adjourned for dancing in both gyms. Duffy Martin's band played until 11:00 when the Iamboree ended, adding another success to its record. T FCBRUHRY T:- -4. - - , t . T- 1,-yi, .-Y , .xl Lsigl 2 -'- - 1 I X2 F I I 5 4 fm 2 lf' A v. ,.

In addition he has gone out for sports in a big way, with emphasis on swimming, which he'll quickly tell you he likes to do better than anything else-except, maybe, sleeping. Don's favor- ite year-round pastime is wood work, while his special summer interest is sailing. As he slowly sips his favorite milkshake, Don dreams of an engineering career as a naval officer. MARY LAVELY If you don't like dogs, give a wide berth to Mary Lavely--her pet peeve is people who don't. Vice-president of the junior class, Mary is also a member of Thalians. Count- ing her brown hair, she stands five feet six inches and has greenish-blue eyes. She enjoys all songs played by Glen Miller and has a hobby of collecting springs. She likes basketball, baseball, volleyball, and swim- ming, and is out for a sports letter. Next to her pet dog Mary revels in thick chocolate malteds. Her ambition is to be a laboratory technician. THE 1944 C485 lACKIE FOY Iackie Foy, our junior secretary, has a bit of Texas in her talk and Mexican food on her mind. The nickname Texas, incident- ally, is Iackie's pet peeve. This Injun gal was in the junior play, is a member of the Attic Players, and has ambitions along the actress line. Her favorite teacher, of course. is Mrs. Maude Stewart Beagle, her drama teacher. Iackie is five feet four inches tall, has brown hair, blue eyes, and loves to hear Harry Iames give out with It's Love, Love, Love. She also goes for swimming, tennis, and horseback riding. IOYCE CARR Ioyce Carr, who held the office of junior treasurer this year, likes her music hot in the boogie-woogie style. In fact, dancing and eating are her favorite pastimes. Bread pud- ding and ham top the list as Ioyce's choice dishes, although she says she'll eat anything that don't bite her first. This blue-eyed brunette delights in mathematics and ath- letics, selecting swimming as her best-liked sport. She is also active in girls' sports at Central, and her greatest ambition is to travel around the world. Iuniors 1 1-B GROUPS GROUP 10 MR.

Volleyball Volleyball proved its popularity by be- coming a major sport, and attracting one hundred and eight girls. Games were played on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Volleyball games are most exciting when even teams play each other, and because there is action for each team member. There being no individual scoring, team success is dependent upon the alertness and skill of every player. The Volleyball Manager for the year was Margaret Benson, who had the big job oi putting up plenty of volleyball nets before every game. Besides the regular duties. Margaret had to line up several referees before every meeting, because there are about 4 or 5 games going on at the same time. A very large number of girls played volleyball this year, making Margaret's job bigger.

This year they presented the old favorite. Passing of the Third Floor Back, as their annual dramatic offering. Earlier in the year, they rocked the audience at The Kaleido- scope, with the one-act mystery comedy. Nobody Sleeps. Through their War Activities Committee, cartoon scrap books have been sent to serv- ice hospitals and individuals in the armed forces. Also playing cards, checkers, chess and other games have been sent both to hospitals and U. S. O. Clubs throughout the country. Former Attic Players in service overseas received subscriptions to the Read- ers Digest at Christmas. All members in service are sent cards and a monthly bulle- tin on Central High activities. This year's officers are: President, Sumner Howard: vice-president, Alpheus Bemis: sec- ond vice-president, Iean Thalner: secretary, Iean Harris: and treasurer, Iim Fogleman.

Ierome. Of a more serious nature, the play takes place in the second- rate London boarding house of Mrs. Sharpe. The story revolves around the Third Floor Back, the stranger, who, symbolizing Christ, penetrates the hard outer shells of the boarders and reveals the true character of each in its kindest and most desirable state. The result is the transformation of a cold, selfish structure into a place called home, filled with cheer and good will. The play presented good food for thought and was an excellent production. Much Y credit is due the superb acting of the cast, which included Iohn Atkins, Alpheus Bemis, William Brannum, Don Brockway, Ted Brownell, Mary Ellen Christiansen, Ioyce Cooper, Catherine Cox, Marion Deane, Pat Drewyer, Dolores Espinos, Said Farah, Iim Fogleman, Peggy Grayum, Shirlee Green- berg, Iean Harris, Sumner Howard, Lois McPhee, Elinor Bundles, lean Thalner, F rank Sim, Charles Tucker, and Carole Wescott. 1572 PROSPECTUS DEBATE-Front Row: Lois McPhee, lean Harris, Mr. Hawley, Betty Hartley, Betty Ledrow.

This year, as could be expected, transportation difficulties arose, but the squad still had a fairly active season. The question this year was, Resolved: That the United States should join in reconstituting the League of Nations. With the fine coaching of Harold E. Haw- ley, Central's SO-50 squad qualified for the State Eliminations Series for the eighth con- secutive year by taking third place in the Saginaw Valley Series. This year the team broke even , winning and losing the same number of debates. In the series of debates held in elimination for the state championship the varsity de- feated Pontiac, to win the first debate, but lost the second debate to Lansing Eastern. Although the activities of the squad this year were limited, a tournament was held here, and Flint Central's squad attended one at Lansing Eastern High. The two Valley tournaments, the major events in the early part of the season, were held at Northern and Central. The affirmative team for the elimination contests was Iames Fogleman and Betty Ledrow: the negative team was composed of Betty Ledrow and Carole Wescott. Valley de- baters included, Lois McPhee, lean Harris, Betty Hartley, Pat Long, Ioyce Blaine, Cath- erine Cox, Faye Rutherford, Ioanne Young, Mildred Walsh, Richard Baker, Rita Anne Smith, Anita lean Smith, and Anne Zierlyn. Coach Hawley carried out his usual policy, of participation for as many debaters as possible this season by having sixteen stu- dents, out of the nineteen enrolled in debate class, take part in interscholastic competi- tion. This year, as always, Flint Central de- baters and Coach Hawley were known throughout the state for their fine perform- ance and keen debating.

Spring Speech This year, as usual, many Central students participated in the annual spring speech contests. For many weeks they were heard rehearsing for the school contest. Iohn Atkins, Roger Hawley, and Iohn Christiansen were the winners of the sophomore declama- tion contest. These students did a fine piece of work and are promising to be excellent speakers for next year. Those who put their heart and soul into dramatic declamations and won at Central were Ioan Young and Romain Johnston. The two young men who penned the best orations this year were F rank Weir and Thomas Poe. Many hours were spent by these boys in writing and leaniing their orations. Iames Fogleman, Carole Wescott, and Anne Zierleyn took places in the extem- pore speaking contest. All of these students went on to Northern where the district and regional contests were held. Iames Fogleman took second place in the regional extempore speaking contest, while Ioan Young took second place in the dramatic declamation contest. These Central speakers represented the school very well, and Central should be proud of them, as well as of the students who gave them competition in the school contest. Iames Fogleman, second place winner in the regional extem- pore speaking contests, held at Northem High School. cssn PROSPECTUS Gihers Are Arrow Head Editors -in - Chief in Q LOIS MCPHEE Q 3 ...:: r ELM CHARLES ELDER BOB SMITH '4 v ..-swf I .,, I ' f A , , K I I -Y viii' ' 1 f Rl L- f' I 5 -4 ,,,,1 XV I .

Girls' Glee Club The Girls' Glee Club, which has been Boys' Glee Club The Boys' Glee Club was organized by under the direction of Walter Bloch since 1939, changed into the capable hands of Miss Louise Doetsch in February. With Miss Doetsch's guidance, this club of 75 talented girls has had an eventful year. On April 16 the Glee Club played host to and participated in the Annual Spring Concert. Francis Eaton represented the club in the vocal contest held at Lansing, May 12. Also the Glee Club was invited to sing before the Optimist Club on May 9, appeared in the Kaleidoscope and Central's Music Week assembly program, and ushered at the Operetta. Mr. Walter Bloch, the director, in the first semester of 1944. The fourteen boys making up the club meet every Wednesday at 7:00 in the evening. This year this talented musical group sang in the massed chorus at the All-School Festi- val. Many of the boys also took part in the Opera as soldiers. The president for the year was lack Parrish. Paul Schroeder, ac- companist, contributed greatly to the success of the club this year. One of the newest additions to Central's music department, the Boys' Glee Club has every chance for success.

THEI944 cszb A Cappella Choir' Since the founding of the A Cappella Choir by Mr. Evanson in 1926, it has been one of Central's outstanding music organizations. The purpose of this choir is to acquaint the students with a finer type of repertoire, for an A Cappella Choir requires the highest degree of concentration. Entrance to the choir is acquired after a try-aut. The first meeting this year was the formal initiation program on October 12, 1943. At this meeting the officers for the year were announced. They were: Sue Erbaugh, president: lean Thalner, vice president and robe custodian: Betty Sears, secretary: Bill Lowe and lean Ackerman, librarians. The organization is now under the fine direction of Mr. Walter Bloch. Performances given during the first semes- ter were at the Kaleidoscope, for the Stepping Stone Girls, on the Radio Station of WFDF and at the Flint Capitol Theatre. During the second semester the A Cappella Choir sang for the following: St. Paul's Episcopal Church, the Optimist Club, Homedale School P.T.A., the annual spring concert, and Kearsley Park Evangelical Church. However, this organization did not devote all its effort to music alone. The A Cappella Choir received a citation of merit from the War Council for the four tons of scrap paper collected through the sing assemblies. This group has done fine work throughout the year and is a valuable addition to the school. Spring Concert The musical organizations which presented the annual Spring Concert, Sunday, April 16, were the following: The Concert Orchestra di- rected by Mr. Walter Bloch, the Girls' Glee Club which was directed by Miss Louise Doetsch, Mr. Edwin I. Merrill's Concert Band, and the A Cappella Choir by Mr. Bloch. The pieces, which the concert orchestra played, were the Magic Flute Overture by Mozart, Romance by Svendsen with Boris Brayan playing the violin, and the First Movement of Ludwig Von Beethoven's Sym- phony in C Minor. The Girls' Glee Club sang the following songs: Lullaby of the Bells by Gustav Klemm, Ieanne Boyd's In Italy, Sing Again by Daniel Protheroe, and Oh, Dear, What Can the Matter Be, -English folk tune. The band played Die Fledermaus Over- ture by Iohanne Strauss and Williams' Symphony in C Minor, First Movement. Adoramuste by Palestrina, Glory Now to Thee Be Given and What E'er May Vex or Grieve Thee, a festival prelude by Iohanne Bach, and Gretchaninoff's The Only Begotten Son were sung by the Choir. After the intermission, the choir proceeded again by singing Ifca's Castle, a Czecho- slovakian folk song, Lovely Celia by Munro-Luvass, and Climbin' Up The Moun- tain, a Negro spiritual arranged by Koone. The finales were performed by the Girls' and Boys' Glee Clubs, A Cappella Choir, and the Concert Orchestra presenting the Clang of the Forge by Rodney-Rhys-Herbert and the Song of Peace by Sullivan.

PRCSPECTUS String Quartette Flint Central's String Quartette is made up of four music students who wish to take up further musical activities and are well adapted to playing together. This year's Quartette, which was present at the annual music festival held at Ann Arbor on May 20, is formed by: Boris Brayan. first violin: Don Wyant, second violin: Mar- garet Benson, viola: and Audrey Ellis, cello. The Quartette is a student activity directed by Mr. Walter Bloch. This year it has per- formed at many functions. This type of work is very desirable experi- ence for string musicians, for it brings out their individuality and makes them more independent. Marching Band At the close of school in Iune, l943, many of the Marching Band's officers and chief players graduated, leaving many vacancies in the ranks. The former musical director. F. S. Weddle, left also, thus causing a bigger worry for the musical staff. However, Mr. Edwin I. Merrill was assigned to replace Mr. Weddle, and with many sophomores on the field, the boys began work. With Mr. Bob Richardson, the Major, as drillmaster and Mr. Merrill as musical director, the boys gave a good performance in the fall season, play- ing mostly at the home football games, and kept Centra1's good musical reputation up to par. Bill Davidson was the chief drum major, and his two capable assistants were Bill McGraw and Iimmy Collins. THE1944 test i R 'Y ., lt 2 Nil xi ' XY-,tw fri iq X1 at M Qtwt I . . t ! The Fighting Littles The Iunior Class can always be counted on to obtain the best for its class play, and 1944 was no exception. On April 14 and 15, after weeks of preparation, the class pre- sented The Fighting Littles, based on Booth Tarkington's novel. Mrs. Helen Hardy Brown directed the production. The play is based on the erratic Mr. Little's temper and his aversion to modern youth. Following her father's advice, Goody, his problem child, dates Norman, her father's choice for her, dropping Ham Ellers, whom her father considers the worst young hoodlum of the lot. After coming to know Norman, Mr. Little decides that Ham may be a better choice after all. Interwoven in the story are the problems of the rest of the family. The characters were cast as follows: Almatina, Clarel Piggott: Olita, Manha Ren- schler and Betty Io Duncan: Filmer, Pat Gammon: Ham Ellers, Iack Hallitt: Mr. Little, lack Cojeen: Goody, Pat Mudget and Bar- bara Ragsdale: Mrs. Little, Barbara Gerholtz and Lillian Gauldin: Antoinette, Betty Ann Reynolds and Lea Iean Hartwig: Cuckoo, Venessa Dobosh: Screwball, Norma Mackel- wich: Henrietta, Ionelle Autry and Jackie Foy: Norman Peel, Art Crawley and Law- rence Bodkins: Dickey Hardpeddle, Dick Dalton and Calvin Blasdell: Mrs. Hardpeddle, Maude Scheidler: Miss Plogg, Pauline Stewart. Anne Zierleyn was the student director and properties were handled by Pam Steftler, Delores Bacon, and Nada Piggott. Enough credit cannot be given to the cast and those who gave time and energy behind the scenes to make this Iunior Play one of the best. MRS.

They took their lunches and always had a good time. At least ten girls had to be present to stage a hike. The girls get a point per mile up to 50 toward their letter. The very big job of being Hiking Manager was given to Lorainne Martin, who had the job of being responsible for all girls going on the hikes. As these girls represented Central, Lorainne had to see that they stayed together, went on safe roads, and abided by all the rules. Badminton This minor sport offered good times for many this year. Racquets and birdies were furnished by the school and the game was played in both gyms. Badminton is taught to beginners rather than a tournament type sport. Another girl who had the job of putting up nets was Shirley MacPhee, Badminton Mgr. She had to check attendance and see that equipment was in good shape. This was a job because such things as badminton birdies and racquets had to be handled with care. In case a toumament is held, the badminton manager has a big job on her hands. Marathon Marathon-long-distance swimming offer- ered many hours of fun for Central girls. Swimming each Wednesday an hour at a time, the number of lengths they had to do was 350. Miss Ianet Adams was the in- structor. Life-Saving Iunior and Senior life-saving instruction was given to the girls by Mr. Gerald Green- lick, each Wednesday after eighth hour. The large crowd was finally cut to 40 members. Life-saving is hard work but the girls enjoyed every hour of the class. Passing the Senior Red Cross life-saving test gives 200 points toward the school letter. The Iunior test gives 100 points. Tennis Although it was a minor sport, forty girls played tennis this spring. Many improved their style. A toumament was held, and with so many girls playing the telephone of Catherine Helgeby was nearly worn out. A good way to have fun is to play tennis, said Kay Helgeby, Tennis Mgr., this spring. Being quite capable in the sport, Kay was very efficient in helping the other girls improve their playing. She had to check attendance and had the other regular duties. The big job of a tennis tournament was very successful under her management. ,gir i 1 w 'M A Y O i i A f X u'fwm. f f f M ,V-. :X 4 97,11 ' ' l g J sag lg 1 I ' J I f H N 4' 'V ' . - -- i I 1 W v 61 l' 1 -PGQQ-ns - H , ,1f is uecl - f ,f ' A , 1' 'MQ X ki- - J '-i::5--E'- 5,3 4397 lst Nm ,, 'F is Ermin'ie Erminie, a comic opera in two acts by E.

Varsity Track Central High's track team actually started from scratch at the start of the season. The coaching staff had been completely revised with Stan Broome taking over the position which Ierry Greenlick of Zimmerman held for one year. Bill Melzow and Iim Richards acted as Coach Broome's assistants. It might be said that the Tribesmen had two strikes against them from the start. as the only retuming lettermen were Norm Iones, dash man and broad jumper, and Lloyd Hosner, a senior and veteran miler of two seasons, who showed promise of a very excellent year. However. several numeral winners were back from the team of '43, A further blow came shortly before the season when Lloyd Hosner passed his physical for the navy, and Bob Mclnnes. another miler. was forced to leave the team because of a heart murmur. Despite these difficulties, the Red-Black thinclads would, no doubt, have had a better season had it not been for the bad weather encountered in training. A late start and continual rain hampered the training season and, consequently, lowered the team's effi- ciency. The season's start showed some fine pros- pects nevertheless. Iesse Thomas showed excellent form in the hurdles, as a high jumper, and as a broad jumper. lack Hayes. a numeral winner last year. proved to be G very capable perfonner in the 220-yard low hurdles. THE 1944 1723 In addition to Iones. several dashmen proved good, particularly Owen Iackson. For the distance runs, there were Kenville, Poulos, and Root in the quarter, Miller in the hajf mile. and Heakins and Walker in the mi e. The Tribe opened at Owosso, tangled twice with Northern, once here in a triangular meet with Pontiac and once on the Vikings' grounds, and then joumeyed to Saginaw High for a meet. Following the Regional and State meets held May 13 and 20, respec- tively, the trackmen had just one regular meet, a triangular affair with Arthur Hill and Owosso, Considering their many handicaps, this year's team gave as good a showing as could be expected. V A Varsity Baseball The '44 baseball squad got under way swiftly this season under the supervision of Ien'y Udell, who took over the coaching assignment which Stan Broome had held for several years. The squad's strength this season was bolstered by the eight returning lettermen from last year's team. They were: Ioe Hahn, Phil Timyan, and Iack Benmark, pitchers: Bud Delude, second baseman: lack Hodge, shortstop: Iohn Lee, third base: Rex Parsell, Varsity Things looked unusually bright for Coach Dick Evans in his first year as golf coach at Central High. With Barry Laur and Paul Zavalla, returning letterrnen, forming the nucleus of the squad, fifteen fellows reported at the beginning of the season. Facing innumerable handicaps, the great- est of which were the shortage of golf balls and the limited travel situation, the Indians carried on to keep the game alive in high centerfield: and Bob Koepke, catcher. Bob Reynolds, who was a last year's numeral winner, also showed up very well in practice at right field. Transportation difficulty was one of the outstanding worries of the squad this year. Early in the season the squad looked for- ward to a very successful season, including the recapture of the city championship from Northern. Golf school. At the beginning of the season Coach Evans stated that the most promising boys on the squad were the following: Barry Laur, Ed Zavalla, Paul Zavalla, Elden Gross, Berny Harris and Dick Olson. Mr. Nunni, former Central coach of golf was unable to handle the squad this year because of the extra work he has taken on, but Mr. Evans took over the job. Varsity Tennis With Mr. Clement Rowe as coach, the Tribe netters completed another season. Their fine performance in the city series upheld true Indian tradition. The tennis team started out with four re- tuming lettermen, George Buben, Karl Smith, Paul Kehm, and Dick Hallwood. Of these George Buben and Karl Smith were the most capable performers. The team turned up two outstanding soph- omores this year in Norman Beattie and Robert Meythaler. Both of these saw action during the season. Some other boys who returned from the '43 team were, Paul Buben, Robert Haber- mehl, and Dan Davey. These juniors also saw considerable action. About 25 boys showed up for first practice and among these there were some other fine prospects. As a whole, Mr. Rowe seemed satisfied with the team's record even though they did not win the Valley championship. TENNIS TEAM-Front Row: Cy Rowe, Paul Kehm, Robert Habermeke.

Varsity Swimming The Tribe Mermen had an average season in their first year under the direction of 1Vlr. Robert Richardson, winning two meets and losing four. Their season record seems to go in pairs. as they won twice from Bay City but lost two meets to both Arthur Hill and Pontiac. However, they finished seventh out of a field of fourteen at the State Class A meet held in East Lansing. Iames McTaggart, back stroke artist, won first place at the state meet with the im- pressive time of 1106.3 in the 100-yard event. The medley relay team finished fifth. Throughout the regular season as well. McTaggart and Fagan gave some excellent performances. Mr. Richardson and Mr. Stan Broome, coach of diving, did as fine a job as pos- sible, and both established themselves firmly with the team and all Centralites. Bud Fagan and lim McTaggart acted as team captains for this season. Major letters were awarded to the follow- ing boys: Leon Fagan, Iames McTaggart, Art Crawley, Lawrence DeCourval, Don Hall, Ted De Courval, Andy Ballantyne, Norman Iones, Charles House, George Brown, Royce Bloomer, Iames Adair, Francis Bartlett, and Pat Gammon, Manager. Numerals were awarded to Tom Reiter, lack Howard, and Nonnan Gillespie. a lim McTaggart became Central's third state champion swimmer in three years when he won the 100-yard backstroke event at the State AAU meet.

The Prospectus Nineteen forty-four brings about our third year of war and our 38th Prospectus. Despite war-time conditions, the staff has succeeded in providing the graduating class with their yearbook of memories. In doing so they have also endeavored to maintain the tradi- tional first-rate quality of the Prospectus, and hope that you will enjoy the cross-section of American youth recorded here as represent- ing Central High School. The credit for the 1944 Prospectus is due to the tireless effort of each staff member, under the supervision of Mr. George Stracke. The only reward which they have asked is the pleasure of Centralites in reviewing the many happy memories of their Alma Mater. The editorial stair this year consisted oi: lean Harris, Editor-in-Chief: Lois McPhee, Associate Editor: Betty Hartley, Fine Arts Editor: Ted Brownell, Activities Editor: lack Bunyan, Boys' Sports Editor: and Mary Io Cummings, Girls' Sports Editor. The typing was done by Pat Iohnson, and Don Wyant was the photographer. Iim Wirl, the business manager, worked with Miss Wellington, the business sponsor, in the sale of the annual. IEAN HARRIS Editor-in-Chief THE 1944 C765 The House Without a Key The Senior Class again scored a success with their presentation of a Charlie Chan mystery, The House Without a Key, on May 18 and 19. The suspense. drama, and excellent direction made the performance one of the best ever given. The story takes place in the romantic land of Hawaii where Dan Winterslip had been murdered. Charlie Chan, the great detective, was called upon to solve the baffling case. After many misleading clues, the murderer, Harry Iennison, was caught by a minor clue of a wrist watch. The credit for the excellent production goes to the cast and Mrs. Helen Hardy Brown, the director. Those having leading roles were Merodean Harvie, Shirley MacPhee, Mary Ellen Christiansen, Laurice Pohly. Sumner Howard, Mac MacManama, David Iennings, Bethany Wilson, Mary Io Cummings, Corine Brennan, Marie Darrah, Pat Drewyer, and Nancy Dubois. Others taking part were Betty Lou Bay- mond, Leon Backhaut, Iohn Mullner, Al Bemis, Norma Wand, Barbara Mayer, Myrtle Williams, and Boyd Baker. B vm PROSPECTUS Senior Officers IAMES MCTAGGART lim McTaggart, senior president, is another prominent figure in Central. He is a tall, strapping young man, with blond hair, blue eyes, an abundance of energy, and a mag- netic personality. Iim's pet peeve is women, and he very diplomatically says that he likes all his teachers. He likes all kinds of food and always seems to be having a good time. lim is well known around Central for his swimming proficiency, for this year he cap- tured the title of state champ in the hundred- yard backstroke event and was elected captain of Central's swimming team. CORINE BRENNAN Corine Brennan, this year's senior vice- president, is five feet two inches tall and moves about beneath an ample supply of black hair. While some people see red, Corine sees yellow every time T. Dorsey gives out with Star Eyes. Yellow, by the way, is her favorite color. C. B., as her friends nicknamed her, detests people who are big-headed. She has a definite taste for chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. This mischevious-looking Centralite claims to like school, but it is rumored she comes just to play the piano and do some sketching in her art class. THE 1944 C787 NANCY DUBOIS Another cute little heap big Injun is Nancy Dubois, our senior secretary, a peppy young lady with blue eyes and light brown hair. Her only hobby is washing her dog-but this is rarely done. Nancy's pet peeve is peop1e who tell her to hurry when she's slow, and she firmly states that she hates mushrooms! She adores songs by Cole Porter, George Gershwin, or Hoagy Car- michal. As for men, the shy, rugged, type suit Nancy's taste. A very active Centralite. she belongs to the F Club, Belle Masque, Thalians, and the G. A. A. IEAN HALLITT A popular Injun is lean Hallitt, a gal five feet tive inches tall with light auburn hair, hazel eyes, and a cute snub nose, who guarded the senior treasury money bags this year. Iean's one and only love is music: she can play anything with strings. She is taking harp lessons because she plans on being an angel, at which time Ieannie will eat steak and French frieds while listening to the Boston Symphony's version of Smoke Gets In Your Eyes in her own particular Heaven where nobody EVER wears pumps and anklets together.
