CENTRAL HAS GROWN

Page 7 text:

First Division National 1 , gala affair was held in the Continental room of the Vendome Hotel with music by lack Newman's orchestra. Dressed in costumes ranging from clowns to the ladies of the gay 90's the Seniors had as their first party of the year, a I-lolloween Hop. - Novelties, even to the dances, featured the Senior Novelty Swing session, the second dance attended and enjoyed by many Seniors. With valentines as favors, the Senior Open Dance was held at the Continental room of the Vendome, February 10, 1939. This dance allowed one member oi the couple to be someone other than a Central Senior and about one hundred couples danced to the strains of music of Iimmy Surbaugh's 1-lighhatters. A Free Fun Frolic for the Seniors was the last social event before the Senior Week activities were held. With the mention of a contest immediately the 1939 class were out to win the awards and very notably did they achieve most of their goals, especially during their Iunior year. Among the prizes won was S10 for the athletic ticket drive and S15 for having the most Dads at a Dads' club meeting. The girls proved their out- standing abilities when they won the Arista League Stunt Assem- bly award both in their Iunior and Senior years. On December 17, 1938 before a large and very interested audi- ence the class presented Noel Coward's comedy, 1'll Leave It To You which was under the direction of Mr. E. A. Hensley. Again those with dramatic ability were given an opportunity to display it when as Seniors the class gave 'tStage Door, a three act play by Edna Ferber and George S. Kaufman. Miss Olema Mote was director of this group. Thus memories of four years at Central come and go and the three hundred fifty-nine graduates leave Central with regrets at having to part from the school and their many friends. But another adventure awaits them and they go to perform this task as success- fully as they have in their four years in Central.
