S., University of Michigan 7 6192 11 P llllli ESIIIQII SZZ ACTING-PRINCIPAL Cl-IAMBERLAIN The faculty!-one of our best friends yet one of the hardest to Hppreciateg All through our four years of struggle they have fought us, helped us, flunked us, taught us, scolded us and tried to the best of their ability to get a little bit of knowledge into even the worst pests in the class. Now, when we stand ready to say farewell we are just beginning to understand and appreciate. We realize how much they have helped when at times they only seemed to hinderg we realize how patient they have been when we had accused them of injustice and unfairness. For instance, there is Miss Con- nell's satire. Who among us appreciated it when it was being hurled upon us in scathing black clouds? Yet who among us now is not far better off for having suffered it, and who does not hold her the dearer for it? And then there is Miss Schabacheids careful scanning of our marks and attendance which we once loudly protested against, but in the end we are grateful. VVe want to give Mr. Trow our sin- cerest thanks for not allowing us dare to enter the room with our lesson unprepared, and for his fair and honest, though sometimes discouraging marks. Mr. Wallace has been one good sport all the way throughg likewise with Miss Burger and Miss McMahon. Never will we forget Mr. Stone's enthusiasm, good humor and-jokes! He will leave a cheerful memory always. More than anything to be appreciated is their ready willingness to mix in and help us with our parties, plays, dances and even our little personal troubles after the school hours are over. Every one of them has taken an interest and pleasure in our activities and has inspired us to better, nobler things. There are not very many girls' counsellors who would have enough pep and sportsmanship to jump rope with a lot of tom-boys as Miss Schabacher didg and there aren't many who can lead us in singing as Miss Schabacher does either. Miss Burger, Miss Cantlon, and Miss Heidt have been the real causes for our dramatic and musical programs all the year through and we will never be through thanking them. Every teacher in the building has been a large factor in our education. They have equipped us willingly and efliciently for the great game of life which we ure about to set out to meet. We arm, very grateful to them. Some of us will enter college and meet other teachers there, but we are sure that none of them will ever take as much personal interest as the ones that we are leaving. We will try to make them proud of us so that they can feel they have not worked in vain. So until that time we must say-good-bye. 8 W 'E 192 11 s unk esmaEi9n Q 55 ll if ,X 4, 555, f V, QW 'Y ,ig ,Q ,Wi fb 'A LM Q gxx fu-X!

President President The last year of our high school life has just scurried past, filled with all kinds of activities and good times. ' The boys of the class have distinguished themselves in athletics while the girls supported them- somewhat. But then all schools have their faults and ours might be worse. The girls have also taken part in one branch of athletics, namely basketball. I'm sure that in future years along with the memories of L'Audie will come a vision of Pat Sternberg and her accounts of the girls' games and their victories. As we go away from school and carry the name of Central into new places and to new friends may we always uphold it just as we have done in the pastg and with all our happy memories of the past and plans for the future, let us hope that no one has been graduated from dear old Central High without being made wiser and better. IRMA M. WEIGEL, '22, Sec'y. 11 ?E92 1l1E5II0k85II1gI1 922?? COMMENCEMENT SPEAKERS 12 Q dd hs Snnkesntgn sz! CARL EDWIN ALBRACHT, ALBRACHT Spanish Club 133, 14,3 Spokesman 133. Behold the baby of '22! Here's the boy whose very presence chases away any blues or cross feelings. Look at that sunny face and you will understand why Carl is the youngest member of the class and has lots of school pep. He is right there when it comes to the Cornet. Twenty years from now he will probably be startling the world with his playing! Curl expects to become 3. P. G. man and he will be back to continue his fine work with Miss Connell, MARGARET BARBARA ALLMAN, PEG Despite her smiles and laughs and jokes lvlnrgaret is one of the brightest girls we can boast of and in her serious moments she plans 21 business career. She al- ways has 21 cheerful or at sympathetic word for everyone who comes along and oh! how she can operate that type- Writer. LILLIAN ALT This young lady left us in the middle of the year but since the panels had alrendy been printed, we did not omit her from '22's list. CARL ERICK ANDERSON, SWEDE Carl. commonly culled 'KSwede by his school-chums, is one ol' Centru1's quiet boys. As yet Swede does not know what he wants to be but We know that he will be successful in whatever he undertakes. His usual early niorning greeting is, Got yer English? DANIEL JOSEPH AQUINO Daniel is 21 quiet, easy-going fellow and has not made much of 21 splash in the rough waters of dear old Central Nevertheless he is a true-blue fellow and holds the honor of not being tarcly or absent once during his four years stay here. 13 WET92EG'hv 511nkssn1g1E9 WILLIAM BABCOCK, BILL Hill is a great favorite with the ladies and bestows his favors on several of the fair sex. But joking aside, he is at fine fellow and we wish him success. EDWIN HARRIS BARBER, BARBER Spanish Club QZJ, Q3jg Spokesman f3j, Olj. Here he is-a ladies' man indeed. You can't blame the girls for falling for his winning smile and cheerful Way. CBetty knows that.J Harris is a fine fellow and a strong support of '22. He is a member of the Spokesman board and has been a great help in making the Spokesman a success. He is planning a P. G. course so We will hear from him again. RUTH ISABELLE BARR, BOBBY The old saying that goo-d things come in small pack- ages is just what fits little Bobby, with her ready smile and a contagious giggle. She is expecting to enter the business world, but WOE to her poor employer if she tries out her little trick of vamping. MARGARET ELIZABETH BAUSCHARD She is always smiling, She is always gayg Her happy disposition XVill bring her joy some day. Central will certainly miss Margaret's cheerful smile and her pep and we are all sure she will make a success of everything she undertakes. RUFUS VOSBURGE BAXTER BUSTER He's one of the smartest boys we have but all the teachers dread to see him coming in their rooms. He's rather rambunctious. But despite his jokes he made Miss Connell's famous college class and puts a lot of his fellow students in the shade. He is the one bright spot of the day to Mr Wallace and has stayed with him a couple of years. Better than any other thing you can say for Rufus is-the boys all like him. 14 :f 'Q 3 Ln 2 :S Q W '39 KENNETH HOWARD BECK, KEN This young man is one of Miss McMahon's French sharks 171. He intends to follow in his father's foot- steps and become a doctor, so take your ills to him. Good luck to you at Oberlin, Kenneth. VIRGINIA LYMETTE BECKMAN, B'JIN French Club 131: Girls' Chorus 111,1215 Girls' Society 131. Her hair a sprinkle of sunshine Her blushings how pretty- E Virginia isn't easy to get acquainted with, but when you do her winning personality holds you, Good luck, .fB,Jin.., JOHN FRANCIS BEHAN, BlMBl Track 131. They say still Waters run deep and here's a good illustration. John is not one of these rambunctious, hair raising, Whirlwind boys who live for a good time only. He gives seriousness and thoughtfulness their proper places and waits till he gets away from school for his fun. So he's getting ahead and the best part of it is we are all glad. WILLIAM PETER BENDER Radio 131. Hail our daring explorer! William thrills the occupants of Home Room 3 every morning with his thrilling tales of adventures, hunting the elusive mosquito in the Wilds of the peninsula. Nevertheless, VVilliani is at sterling friend and some day we will probably hear that he has carried off some high honors using the rod or the gun. VIRA OTHILIE BLAIR, VI Spanish Club 131, 1415 Girls' Chorus 111. I want to spread a little sunshine. I want to drive dull care away. She, who is always looking for a good time and finds it, intends to be a business Woman. VVith her Witty sayings and true Celtic origin we are sure she will be a great success. 15 14:4 Glw inukvswan 9 3? JENNY GERDINA BONDE, SLIM Girls' Chorus 1415 Girls' Society 141. The saying goes around that good things come in small packages but here an exception. Did you ever see Jennie when she did not have a smile on? lf so, you may be sure there was something seriously wrong, be- cause Jennie and her smile are inseparable, Jennie will soon equal Alma Gluck. Jolly, lovable girl, willing to help everybody,-that's Jennie. JOHN BORLAND, JOHNNY Spokesman Manager 141 5 Olympian Club 141 5 Council 141. John was thought to be vamp proof for a long time, but at last he succumbed to a bright eyed damsel and has been susceptable ever since to everyone's delight. John's chief characteristic is his dry, droll humor which has caused more than one disturbance in the Spokesman room. He also has persistence as he's worn out several pairs of shoes trying to get advertisements for our magazine, EDNA MAE BOYD, ED Basketball 1217 Dramatic Club 1415 Girls' Chorus 1419 Girls' Society 131, 141. Ed is one of Central's cheerful students, and she's always on hand when there is any fun. She is going out into the business world. Although We Wish her much success We are afraid she'll not get very far as there is a certain someone who thinks Ed is a dandy cook. THOMAS PRESSLY BOYD, TOM lVith his broad smile and winning ways, Tommy has won for himself a place in the heart of every Centralite. VVe wonder why so many of the girls always go to Old- field's for their shoes XVe give Tommy our best Wishes for successful business career. ROSE ELLEN BRADY Girls' Chorus 131, 121: G-irls' Society 1313 Dramatic Club 1415 Debating Club 1415 Vice-president 141. She sings, she dances, Yamps and entrances lfs poor males. Gaze upon our vice-president. Roses vivid person- ality makes her well liked immediately. YVherever she goes, she is very original. Perhaps sometime you may have the honor of reading one of her stories, of which we're all proud. 16 W 79 Iw o GLADYS M. BROWNELL French Club 133, 1439 Debating Club 143. On seeing Gladys our first thoughts are of Titian and Beethoven. Her sweet disposition and dry humor add to her popularity among her friends. Central will miss her when she goes to Mt. Holyoke next fall. ALBERT BURGER Look at him! Doesn't he look joyful? He sure do- and that look which indicates he is a happy-go-lucky, makes me want to tell you the reason tmainly a girl3, but he said not to! Al is not lacking ambition as his attainment on the fiddle ascertains. GLADYS VERA BURROWS, GLADO Debating Club 133, 1435 Girls' Society 133, 143. Gladys is an excellent student, the joy of every one of her teachers. Last year she was the only one of the fair sex claiming membership in the Debating Club. She proved herself to be anything' but Weak, however, when she took the stand either pro or con when it meant victory for Central. We sincerely hope that she Will be as successful a stenographer as she has been a student at Central. MARION ANNETTE BUSS, BOBBY French Club 133, 1437 Debating Club 143 Bobbie at last mustered up enough courage to have it done, That is, have her hair bobbed. Everyone thinks the style is very becoming to her, especially at certain Bob. Do.n't worry, Marion, we won't tell. Marg is Bobbie's most particular girl friend, altho she has made a score of others tboth kinds3 during her two years at Central. RICHARD EDWARD CAREY, DICK Debating Club 133, 143: Dramatic Club 143. Dick is the one who holds his teachers in terror. Though he's smart he believes in having one grand old time in his class rooms. And we'l1 admit he's rather clever at it. But the funniest part is-he always man- ages to get through, somehow, if only by the skin of his teeth. His theme work is his redeeming feature, for oh! how lie can pull the bunk. ' 17 1922 5119 5111114 tsntgngv EQ JULIA MARIE CARLOWE, JUDY Leaders' Class QZJ. 'Tis the song you sing, the smiles you wear, that makes the sunshine everywhere. This is very true of .Tudy-she always has a pleasant smile and a happy word for everyone. She is one of our care free happy young ladies. She is a friend who will stick by you always. Judy is always ready for any- thing that promises a good lime. JOSEPH CARNEY Big .lore Carney is one of the little fellows of the class. He is rather a Quiet fellow hut has made many friends in his four years of high school, FRANCIS JOSEPH J. CARRICK G-lee Club 13396. I-I. S. Band 141. He's Irish, as his name denotes, And Irish wit he can display: Tho he seldom expresses the thought he notes, And quietly, cautiously goes his way. Frank apparently takes to hooks, like a fish to water, nevertheless he is quite a humorist when he gets started. He would make a good lecturer, humorist, journalist, or in fact almost anything he would wish. Goo-d luck to you, Frank. WILLIAM JAMES G. CASSIDY Debating UU. Bachelorhood is freedom. Bachelorhood is peaceg Bac-helorhood is independence And a simple life of ease. But. oh, the years to follow, VVhen age Creeps in the door, You'll find it hard to be a but-helor And your single life deplore. VVilliani doesn't intend being one. We all know VVil1ia1n. , NANCY KATHERINE CHANDLER, SIS Nancy is one of our bright young students and a hearty supporter of the Girls' Society. Nancy is a peach of a girl-always doing things for others. 'We hope she makes a success at Whatever she undertakes for she sure has made a success of her time here. 18 ' . - g W 19z Q'h t imoh ssman 9 MARIAN PRISCILLA COLBY Humor Editor Spokesman 14jg Secretary 133. Her eyes, blue as the fairy flax, her cheeks, pink as the dawning ot' 11 day, give Marian that semblance of eternal Youth. Vie don't think she'll ever grow up, quite. She's too much of a little girl for that. NVQ might compare her to the heroine of some of her own stories. They just seem to Ht her somehow, and it's many an hour she spends with her story-book folks. She says someday she's going to Bohemia and write for- ever-hut-Marionl VVe know. NATELLA PAULINE COMSTALK She's just one grand friend to everybody and espe- cially to somebody. She is so sweet and sympathetic that you just love to gd to her and tell her things, for you know her friendship will never waver. She knows lots too, and every six weeks she gets a card full of .-Vs, but the best thing she has learned is the art of good- fellowship. KENNETH WILLIAM McKINLEY COOK, KEN Class Basketball 1GridleyJ 113, 1235 Dramatic Club 1G-ridleyj 113, 1215 President Class 1G-ridleyj Right now Kenneth is a victim of Miss Connell's deepest rancor but someday all her English classes will be reading his poems and perhaps she will forget that he didn't study for her. He resembles Shakespeare in that he knows little Latin and less Greek!-but never mind, Kenneth you sure can roll in the poetry -and break the hearts of co-eds. WALTER THOMAS COUGHLIN This happy-go-lucky Irish lad is either destined to be a great mathematician or a baseball player. He has not told us yet. VVe don't know much about it-but by the loo-k of determination on his face we know that he is sure to succeed in life. ANDREW A. COULTER, ANDY Dramatic Club 13y, 147: Financial Secretary 131: President 135. Andrew is a hearty supporter of the school, having been president of the class his Junior year and is also one of the finest presidents that the High-Y Club has ever had and under his leadership the club is the best it has been in many years, Here's hoping you succeed after you leave Central! 19 hs Snokesmggg MYRON ELLIOTT CROSS, CROSSIE Elliott hasn't been a shining light in the class room but he knows all about the mechanism, etc., of automo- biles especially Buicks. Crossie is rather quiet CED, nevertheless, he has made a host of friends both among the fellows and the girls. He expects to go to Carnegie Tech to learn about Real Estate and Construction Engineering. Here's hoping you're as successful there, Crossie, as you have been in some of your lengthy campaigns WARREN T. CROSSLEY, CROSSLEY This jaunty, tall lad has quite a future before him. He is quite a mathematician and we should not be surprised if some day our posterity should study and work on the Crossley Theory. Go to it, XVarren. a large field is before you. MARY A. CROTTY Mary has won many friends by her quiet, dignified manner. Her dark brown eyes reveal much that is taking place in back of them. NVe all know that Mary is full ot' fun and jolity, for who knows Mary without xt smile. JAMES A. CULBERTSON K'Jimmy, as he is known about school, is a quiet sort of fellow but he is well known and liked by all his class mates. MARIAN ELIZABETH CURRIDEN, CHUCK Spanish Club Q3j, 143g Girls' Chorus LG-ridleyj llj, Qzy VVho doesn't know Chuck. XVell, she's that little blonde who is always laughing even if it is raining. You can always count on Chuck when there's any music because she sure can dance. But there's something serious back of her smiles and dancing. Some day she is going to- make some one a good secretary. 20 Q W 'iv hv uk esnmn 922 Q MARIETTA BRYCE DARSIE French Club 133, 143 XVhen Marietta came back to school with her hair bobbed one day, it seemed as though she ought to be playing with her dolls yet instead of Working out those terrifying problems in chemistry every day. But those short brown curls cover lots of brains and from those serious brown eyes shine sincerity and friendliness, And when she drives around town in that oar of hers- beware. HARRY RUSSELL DAVISON Not large of stature, but big of mind, With a cheery word and a heart that's kind. Misfortunes and handicaps may be in the way, But he'll he a success, We don't doubt, some day. When it comes to chemistry Harry takes the cake. He intends taking up chemical engineering and We feel sure he will make Sir Humphrey Davy and some of the other geniuses take a back seat. Go to it, Harry-'22 is glad to have had you. THELMA ELIZABETH DE BELL TEDDY and SLIM Debating Club 095 Spanish Club Q40 Thelma is one of the Stars on the Girls' basketball team, and she has done much to make that organization successful. She was one of the prominent members of the debating club during her Junior year. AIDA ROSE DE BELLO Aida is another of those rare phenomena. She is good looking and Z1 good student. Look at her picture to make sure of the first, and ask any of the teachers for the second. CARRIE DE CECCO Carrie, a lover of writing poetry and stories, has made many friends, during her high school course, and we all wish her joy and good luck in her future life work. 21 WEE E6hE5nvkvSwQEi9 OTTOMER WILLIAM DECK, IRENE Basketball 131, 141 What would Central have done without Deck? He surely was 0-ne of '22's biggest contributions to ath- letics. Few would hardly pick him for a basketball player, would you? But he was one of our biggest main stays during his last two years. Appearances are de- ceiving. Good luck, Ottomer. CARL EDWARD DEHNERT, DANNIE Quiet, sure. But ask his host of friends if there is U. better fellow in the school. That is a rare combina- tion: a good student and a good sport. JOHN S. DIEKHOFF Debating Club 131, 1415 Debating Team 131, 1415 Dra- matic Club 131, 1415 President 1415 ,Spokesman 131, 1415 Olympian Club 141 Look up, below! Behold our highest, intellectually, of course. Our Assistant Editor of the Spokesman. He, whom we all look up ito. John's quick wit and ex- tensive knowledge are characteristics of wonder to us all. They have not only made him prominent in the Debating Club but together with that slanting glance NJ of his, have by means made him formidable to the feminine sex! WILLIAM DOUGHERTY, DOC, Basketball 1313 Track 131: Football 1419 Captain Basketball 141 Basketball captain, and a good one: A mainstay of the team for two years. Do-c shines in football and track just as well, and as a good fellow, he canyt be beat. MARION ANNETTE DOUGLAS, NITZER Annette, the favorite, Annette, the vivacious! 'Tis a good thing for us That the stairs are so spacious! She hates to admit it, XVhere the1'e's slant there is sway- A scream,--a hard tumble.-and- Nitzens reached the landingg Even this does not affect her sweet disposition, which cannot be equaled-nor can that attractive spit curl. 22 T R unmrumw mnllllu 2' 'W T 3-'X 5-fi Q 1 Q9 it Htl PAUL VINCENT DRISCOLL, MICKEY VVhen you want someone with pen, get hold of Paul. Hes right there with the goods! He was one of the charter members of the Debating Club and active in it all through his junior year. VENA FLORENCE DUNCOMBE Florence has a quick and ever ready smile Which, combined with the best of dispositions, has won and held a host of friends. Her recitations are the delight of all her teachers. EUGENE DUNFORD He has lots of friends and is a good friend to them all. He is one of our quiet members, but always active in school functions. Central has no better supporter than Gene. DOROTHY MAY FENNO, DOT Another quiet member of that collection of brains known as the Virgil class. Mr. Trow always was lucky when it comes to students. LORNA F INCH Basketball 093 Girls' Chorus C433 Girls' Society,13J My This maiden with the euphonius name and melodious voice and graceful carriage has been a faithful worker throughout her course. Her recitations have been a source of delight to all. She will undoubtedly make a success of her next Work. 23 ? 192z 'Q'h12 SII0ktfS1ItgI1 9 HELEN GEORGETTA FISCHER Helen is a dandy, She surely is a peach, VVe hope that her disposition ls always within our reach. JOHN TRUE FISHER Long, lean and lanky, quiet, unobtrusive, friendly, hrainy: that is John Fisher. Vv'e can safely say that there is not a better fellow in the Senior class and not one who has better upheld the honor of the school. Good luck, friend. GEORGE MICHEAL FITZPATRICK, FITZ Dramatic Club 131, 1435 Debating Club QSQ, 143: President Q43 With one foot extended forward, arms widely out- tlung and mouth spouting oratory I recognized in this impressive Socrates our little George. However, that is a picture of the future. At present we all know and like him for his quiet way and good fellowship. George is a doer as well as an orator, doing all without par- tiality. M. ISABEL FLETCHER, ISSY lsabel is known to her classmates as having a very sweet and pleasing personality. She is just the best friend ever, as anyone who knows her will say. Isabel is a good student and is worthy of success after leav- ing school. EDNA CLARICE FOHT, ED Spanish Club 133: Girls' Chorus fly: Girls' Society Q35 So graceful, so tall, so slender. No matter where you go, you could not find a more sedate girl than Edna. But nevertheless she is quite athletic for she is a regular tennis fiend. She also finds time to study, because she has even conquered Virgil. 24 llllllilllwll i J LT' 'W sb 5 is Qs DOROTHY FORREST Girls' Society My A winning way, ll pleasant smile. Dot is one of our studious little misses in Room 20. She is always ready for fun and a good time, and has won many friends by her pleasing manner. Doro- thy intends to be a librztrian.

The time has passed quickly and soon we will have the important duty of being Seniors upon our hands. We have tried to uphold the school in everything that We have attempted. The Juniors have been as well represented in athletics as any other class in the school. lt would be useless to try to mention here the names of all those who upheld the honor of the school in sports. Three or four boys on the champion relay swimming team which broke the national inter- scolastic record at Philadelphia and three weeks later lowered their record in New York are Juniors. Football, basketball and track have also a large representation from the Junior Class. In the Dramatic Club H great deal of talent is seen among our members. There is also a large amount of musical talent, debating ability and literary skill which we have discovered in our midst. Into everything which we have entered we have received the cooperation of the entire class, which is the most important thing in school activities. A spirit of good will has reigned and with this same feeling among us next year there is no reason why our Senior year will not be entirely successful.

That is all of our athletic activities. But in the other activities the class has made a wonderful showing. Some of our mem- bers fare in the band, some in the orchestra. Others are in the Glee Club, still others in the Dramatic Club. The Mandolin Club was made up entirely of Sophomores. In the first semester the class was under the guidance of Douglas Johnston, Pres.g Weltha Horsman, Vice President, Marion Smith, Sec- retary, and Carl Knobloch, Treasurer. It was in this semester that the Sophomores put on one of the best dances of the year. In the second semester the personnel of the ofiicers was changed, Samuel Diehl was elected President, Robert North, Vice President, Morgan Smith, Treasurer, and Frederick Ray, Secretary. Under the guidance of President Diehl the class ended its first year at Central in a blaze of glory. The big dance at the Gridley Gym making a fitting climax to the year's activities.

Never did a football team from Central I-Iighi School face a season with more, severe handicaps than! did the team of nineteen twenty-one. With but two days of coachingi before the opening game, Central decisively defeated the Alumni by a score of 12 to 0. The Alumni team was organized by John Carney for the purpose of helping out the season financially. The management wishes to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Carney and all who played on his team. Immediately after the Alumni game, our coach, Mr. La Fromboise, was obliged to leave town. The team was thrown MANAGER LORD into a state of confusion for the next four days, due to the lack of a coach. Then Gus Anderson came to the rescue. With only three afternoons left for drilling the team before the North East game, he succeeded in teaching them enough plays to carry them through. Thus the Red and Black did very well in holding North East, who Worked out during the entire month of August, to a scoreless tie. On October first we met a snappy little team from Ashtabula Harbor. If football scores were made only by touchdowns, the game would have been a tie, but as Held goals and goals from touch- downs also count, Ashtabula won 16-12. Without ofering any alibi, it is only fair to the team to say that the first week of real practise they were able to have was directly before this game. The first decisive defeat of the season was administered by Lakewood High of Cleveland on the next Saturday. Battling on a field that was like a swamp, the Red and Black held their heavier opponents scoreless during the first quarter. But the superior weight of the Lakewood team could not be held in check during the remaining three periods. Aided by the slippery field they ran up 33 points to our 0. One of our most ancient rivals, Masten Park, champions of Buffalo, journeyed to Erie to try their luck against Central on October 15th. Although they scored two touchdowns in the first quar- ter, they had a hard time to win, for our warriors made two against their one in the final three periods. The score when the time keeper's gun announced the end of the game was 22-14. Another rival from the vicinity of Buffalo was met in the week following. Although we ran up thirteen points in the first quarter, North Tonawanda beat us 21-13. We played our first game for the championship of Erie on November fourth. Playing a brand of football that had not been approached earlier in the season, the Red and Black gave East High a severe drubbing to the tune of 33-0. The Scarlet and Gray put up a game fight, and it was only by the best kind of team work coupled with a few long runs by Hanley and Griswold that Central won by so fine a score. On November twelfth Washington High School defeated us by a 32-0 count. Washington has been a runner up in the national championship for several years. Putting up a wonderful fight in the face of almost certain defeat, Central lost the big game of the season on Thanksgiving by a single touchdown. Academy had the advantage of having an early start and being under the jurisdiction of one coach from the beginning to the end. Had Gus Anderson had this same advantage his team might have told a different story to that of his brother, Oc. The Academains scored 13 to our 6. Three of Central's fighters, Red Sullivan, end, Bill Wright, center, and Bob Specht, tackle, won the honor of being placed on Erie's all-scho'astic football team. By scrupulous managing and careful planning Manager Tommy Lord accomplished an almost impossible feat. With a losing team he had a most successful season financially. It is safe to say that he wasted not 21 cent of the school's money. However, this would not have been possible without the cooperation of the student body. Central decidedly whipped Academy on Thanksgiving so far as cheering and student attendance are concerned. This shows that Central has adopted the motto of Masten Park, which adapted to Central is: In Victory, In Defeat, Central High! WILLIAM B. WASI-IABAUGH, Ass't Mgr. 1921. 68 W F192 hP I10k85Il1gI1'9 lllrnsperta fur IHZZ With the coming of the 1922 football season a resolve to win back the city championship should be burned into the heart of every student of Central High School. And prospects for a team to accomplish this very thing could not possibly be better. Six letter men from the 1921 team will return to play on the line, namely Captain Red Sullivan, Dick Derry, John Reed, John Dunham, Purl Anderson and Bob Turner. Roswell Mabie, a valuable guard on the second team, will also be back. We find the backfield almost intact, with the return of Francis Griswold, Fullbackg Le-Ieal and Hanley, halfbacks, and Ed Pahle, who was used as Bill Weaver's sub at quarterback. Vague rumors have it that Rex Carney, one of the best buckfield men in all Central's football history, is coming out next fall. One of the biggest reasons why Central underwent an unsuccessful season in 1921 was because there were not enough men on the squad. For the making of a successful football team, the greenest recruit on the squad is as valuable as the best ground gainer on the first team! In order to stimulate more interest in the squad, it has been arranged to have a football camp at Camp Unaliyi, otherwise known as Y Camp, during the last two weeks in August. Full particulars may be had at the Y. M. C. A. WILLIAM B. WASHABAUGH, Manager 1922. P. S.-Andy Fletcher, who starred on one of Charlie Fry's old Erie High School teams, has just been appointed our Athletic Coach for the year 1922-23. Under his leadership, coupled with that of Captain Red lSullivan, one of the most successful Football seasons the Red and Black has ever had may well be anticipated.

VARSITY SWIMMING SQUAD W 192 139 1103 GSIIIQ 9 Sminnning ilteuimn zfaezlann IEIZI-ZZ 'NGN The swimming season this year was the most successful in the history of the sport at Central. It may also be stated that it was the most successful season for any activity since the organization of athletic teams in Erie High School in years gone by. In early December the team defeated Lewis and Clark High School of Spokane, Washington, in the initial meet of the year. In its next engagement Central easily defeated the swimmers of .Academy by the overwhelming score of sixty-four to ten. The team then went to Philadelphia to compete in the University of Pennsylvania interscholastic meet. Here it met the first opposition of the year. It managed, however, to compile twenty points to take second place and to defeat a number of the fastest high school and prep. school teams of the country. Mercersburg Academy succeeded in gaining twenty two and one-half points and thereby defeated Central. The next meet saw the team in action in New York city at the Columbia interscholastic meet. Here its members experienced no hardships in capturing first place and in defeating members of the best scholastic teams of the east. Princeton next held an individual meet in which Central entered Bill Wright and Adam Smith. These two lads upheld the honor of Central to the highest degree, taking two places each. The next appearance of the team was in an interscholastic meet held by J. C. Ainsworth of the Y. M. C. A. Central, although handicapped by the loss of -Wright and Smith, easily finished first in the meet with forty-two points. Academy was next with twelve and East High third with seven. The last meet of the season was with St. John's Military Academy of Manlius, New York. Cen- tral scored a decisive victory over the cadet team of New York State and the relay team broke the world's record for one hundred and sixty yards and Bill Wright hung up the forty yard world's scholas- tic record. It is needless to state that the team would not have been able to establish this record without the loyal backing of the business men of Erie. It would have been impossible to go to Philadelphia and New York had the supporters of the team outside of the school not heartily contributed the necessary funds. It is practically wholly due to the honest support by the townspeople that Central may boast a world's scholastic championship team and it is the first team in the history of Central to gain such an honor. A great deal of credit is due J. C. Ainsworth for the development of the Central swimmers. Mr. Ainsworth has never been paid a salary by the school but nevertheless he has turned out cham- pionship teams ever since the organization of a swimming team under him. Central has never been defeated in a dual swimming meet and only twice have other teams defeated them in open inter- scholastic meets. Mr. Ainsworth treats swimming as a mere hobby and for this reason he devotes a great amount of time and energy for the betterment of the school. He becomes disgusted, however, when he sees the poor attendance of the students at the meets. It would be a great loss to the school if Mr. Ainsworth should drop the swimming team and therefore it would be wise for the students to turn out in a body next year. In closing we may state that we wish for a much more successful season next year and we hope to win all meets in which the team may be entered. H. H. MAYER, Manager. 'Y ?l92 lll! 5111111 125111111 922 lirnf-pasta fur IEIZZ-Z3 Swimming prospects for the coming season are brighter than ever before in the history of Central High. In spite of the great loss of our famous Captain, Wm. Wright, who held that position for two successive years, we feel that the team has a good chance to retain the honors won by the exceptional team of 1922. Other losses to the teflm are Henry Mayer and Edward Harrison, the for- mer having been a member for the past three years and having shown wonderful work in his past per- formances with the team, the latter, who was a member for two years, deserves much credit for his Work in the Plunge, The team has for H nucleus, Captain Adam Smith, Byron Bowen, Francis Griswold, Carl Johan- nesson, Daniel Hanley, Dan Wurzbach and John Anderson. Special mention must be given to Adam Smith, who is our captain-elect and who now holds distance records from the 220 yard to the 880 yard in the Allegheny Mountain Association of the A. A. U., and will be our mainstay during the coming season. The famous relay of 1922 is especially to be superintended by Hanley, Griswold, Smith and Bowen. John Anderson, who is the present holder of the plunge record, will take care of that part of the program. Wurzbach and Bowen will be used in the 220 yard swim and 40 yard breaststrokef Smith and Johanneson will take care of the backstroke, while Hanley, Griswold and Smith will take part in the sprints. Fancy diving will be done by Bowen and Johanneson. Bowen is the present interscholastic fancy diving champion of the city. The team also has good prospects in Robert Huey, Homer Strangway, Milton Surre and Allen Cross. Huey is a coming distance swimmer and fancy diver, while Strangways, Surre and Cross will be used in the 40 and 100 yard swims.

Around three letter men from last year, Coach Anderson built up a championship team of not only the city, but of Northwestern Pennsylvania. First we have Capt. Dougherty, the scrappy little Irishman, who, along with his running mate, Deck, filled the hearts of the opposing guards with fear. Then we have Sweet, who is able invariably to get the tip from his opponent. Last. but not least, we have the two guards, Turner, Captain-elect, and Lannon, who not only blasted the hopes of many a forward, but saved more than one game with their brilliant offen- sive work. Then we have two very capable substitutes, Hubbell and Hart, who are sterling guards, and Hart proved himself to be just as valuable at center as at guard. Victories, we had our share of t'Wins. Fourteen victories out of eighteen games, eleven of these being played away from home. Defeating both Academy and East High by goodly scores made Central Interscholastic Champions for the second time in two years and earned them the right to be represented at the Allegheny College tournament. Though losing first place by a very narrow mir- gin at the tournament, We proved beyond a doubt that Erie Central produced teams of quality. Cen- tral was the only school to attend the tournament two years in succession. It's easy to smile when you win, And it's easy to frown when you're down. Gee, it's hard to smile when you lose, But by golly, th2Lt's what they did No difference it made a loss or a win They took both with a grin. At home or away, they left the same record Against Central it sure was a pleasure to play, For clean sports they sure were That's all for this season, Good-Day. JAY CEE. Brnapnrts fur IEIZZ-Z3 The basketball outlook for the ensuing season is one of the brightest that we have had for many years. With the return of two and possibly three 'varsity men, the coach should have no trouble in developing a team which will easily defeat any other team played this year, and again win the scholastic championship of the city. Robert Turner, considered the best scholastic guard in the city, was elected captain for the com- ing season, and expects to pilot his team to victory in every contest. Many of the better schools in this section of the country have noticed the type of basketball that Central has played in the past season, and have written already, in order that they might receive games with a school noted for her clean sportsmanship. Now, Centrkllites, get behind this team and give it all the support you're able, and make this coming season one of the best and most successful seasons in the history of the school.

Track is the oldest sport known and is recognized throughout the leading colleges and high schools as one of the finest and most inspiring sports of the country. Track is indeed quite different from other sportsg in order to make a track team a man must be physically fit and must also lead a good, clean life. It is a test of individual endurance and it depends upon the man and the man alone whether he is to win or lose. In basketball or football the individual is not taken into consideration as closely, but the team as a whole is held responsible for victory or defeat. All in all a track meet is a beautiful event and the students of Erie should be taught to appreciate it more than they do. This year Central had five letter men back and with these men as a nucleus we had one of the best track teams ever turned out at Central. Francis Wilson, our track star, won the 100 yard dash at Allegheny in 10 1-10 seconds, breaking the Allegheny record and also the record held by Mayer of Central when he negotiated the distance in 10 2-5 seconds. This record has been standing since 1900. Our relay team, composed of Webb, Griswold, Dougherty and F. Wilson, broke the school rec- ord for the 2-5 mile relay. As the track season opened we found that we were in need of some new men. So in order to bring out the men who had never had any experience we held a novice meet in which any fellow was eligible provided he had not received a point in any compeititve meet. This helped our team greatly and got a great number of students interested who would probably have not considered track with the same interest had the meet been omitted. Loeb Sz Son gave a loving cup for the highest point winner, which was Webb. The management furnished medals for the men receiving the next highest number of points. The medals were awarded as follows: Quillman, second, Mayer, third, and Yokes, fourth. This meet was indeed a large success. This year we made our annual trip to Buffalo to compete with our old rivals, Lafayette and Nichols, in a triangular meet. There was indeed a beautiful cup offered to the winner of the meet, but due to the small squad we were forced to take up there we had to be satisfied with second place. Lafayette had an exceptional team this year and it is no disgrace to be beaten by a team of this cali- ber. The score was: Lafayette, 64, Central 32, Nichols, 2. However we hope to win next year. On May 13 we participated in the Allegheny Interscholastics and took second place. This was very good indeed, being beaten only by South High of Youngstown. The score for this meet was as follows: South High of Youngstown, 43Wg Central, 29M, Academy, 22. Next year the team will have to dress in a different locker room. For the past four years Central has dressed in the same room, and has not been able at any time to take better than second place. 'fSo beware ye teams that are to follow. It has been the custom to adjourn to Lafayette every year and then bring them here for a return meet. But this year we side stepped slightly and brought Masten Park here-one of the best track teams in Buffalo. Although arriving late they showed good spirit and put up a game fight, but were subdued to the tune of 73 to 40. To close the season the triangular meet between Central, Academy and East High was staged. It was a great success for Central on that day, and it was thought before the meet started that Acad- emy's chances to win were very good, but, however, they lost out to our new and fast coming East High. The score after the smoke had cleared away was as follows: Central, 61, East High, 283 Academy 275 points. It was a great victory for Central, making them champs of the city for year 1922. The following is the list of points earned by each fellow on the team: Francis Wilson, 615 Edwin Slocum, 23, Bill Wright, 223 Don Weining, 18g Hank Mayer, 163 Bill Dougherty, 15, John Behan, 14g Francis Griswold, 145 John Dunham, 10g Raymond Webb, 3, Ottimer Deck, 23 Paul Nagle, 2. Track this year has been a great success financially as well as physically. Next year we hope that the students will come out and support their track team a little better. Let us see every noble student in Central that has a bit of school spirit out there. Do you not consider the champions of the city worth while supporting? Come out and boost, All ye noble students.

It has furthered activities in Central to a great extent and its members have done justice to Cen- tral in many ways. The club has also had a successful season socially. At Christmas time it staged a big dance at the Community House where many of the Alumni had a chance to meet their former schoolmates and to talk over old times. Next on the social program was the O'Club Vaudeville where everyone was entertained by lots of frivolity and blissful harmony. The lust event was the O'Club Spring Hop at the Lawrence where everyone attended and a good time was had by all. Members of the club have been a mainstay in all activities of the school and they have done their best to make Central the winner in ull her undertakings. As this year's graduation will take its toll from the ranks of the club we have duly elected certain other lower classmen to fill the vacancies. They have been informed in an unforgetable manner of their duties, on entering the club and we trust that they will perform them nobly. The club this year has accumulated a small sum and as all the activities have been successful financially it is not fully decided wh21t shall become of the funds. The swimming team is the only sport which has failed to break even and as its members are thought deserving, the club has been thinking of buying some token as a memory of the fine record which they have established. Members of the club are: Vtfilliam VVeaver, '22 John Diekhoff, '22 John Borland, '22 Robert Specht, '22 Richard Derry, '23 Fordyce Coburn, '23 Thomas Lord, '22 William Yard, '23 VVilliam Y1Vright, '22, President l Fordyce Coburn ,'23, Vice President Henry H.

We have had lots of fun but our good times required a great deal of work.

E Spanish Glluh CIRCULO ESPANOL The Spanish Club has made a fine record among the activities of the school. It is one of the best organized and well known clubs of the school. The Spanish Club was organized for the purpose of furthering the interest of the Spanish lan- guage among the students of Central High. It is believed that this has been accomplished by those who attended the meetings. Meetings were held regularly Wednesday activity period. All of our meetings were well attended and all showed an intense interest in what was being done. We have forty members enrolled. Our entire time was not taken up by study. The Club gave a dance in the Central Gym. which proved to be one of the best given there. It is hoped that the club next year will keep on with the work started this year. The greater part of the progress of the Club is largely due to the advice and service given by our worthy supervisor, Mr. Katz. Those who are graduating this year will always remember Mr. Katz as a friend. The club has been guided by competent officers who have carried out the work successfully. They are as follows: President, George Altermatt Vice President, Wm. E. Pfister Treasurer, Aile Nokari Secretary, Mildred Brown 90 W 192 1312 012 9SIIlQIl 922E Debating Qlluh Q The Debating Club of Central has had a very successful season this year. This judgment is not passed from the number of debates that we have held, for we did not even succeed in arranging contests with Academy or East High. Neither is it based upon the percentage of wins which we have regis- tered, for that could easily have been improved. The success of our club and team, however, lies in the comparatively great amount of interest which has been aroused in debating lines. Our club has been among the most active organizations in the school. We have over thirty names upon our roll call, most of which represent really active members. The club has held, regularly, two meetings every week, of a character so interesting that the attendance never lagged. The members of the club who have represented the school in interscholastic debates are: George Fitzpatrick Paul Wood Arnold Williams Cyril Clarke Gladys Burrows John Diekhoff DIEKHOFF, V. P. 91 92 lll! Sauk ssmgn gzzgv lilirgil Qllaaa The Virgil Class! The essence of Latin education in Central. Are we proud of our knowledge? Yes, rather. Through one long year Mr. Trow, our trusty guide and teacher, has shown us the wonders of Latin poetry. We have lived with Virgil through the Trojan war, the dangers of the seas, the wiles of Dido, the wrath of Juno, the terrors of the underworld, and we finish with an ardent wish that :all Latin were Virgil and all teachers were like Mr. Trow. No 'matter how hard he has had to pull and drag and push us through we only hope a kind thought for '22 will now and then cross his mind, for we shall never forget him. 92 M-fWl92 l11f 5110156111311 922 .members uf 1921-ZZ Gluunril 1922-Marion Mathias, Augusta Knobloch, William Wright, Wm.

All of the meetings were decidedly cheerful because of the favorable reports from the various activities. Both football and basketball turned large profits over to the treasurer. Two resignations were tendered during the year, that of Mr. Moore, who left the school, and Wm. Washabaugh, who resigned as a junior class representative in order to represent football. 93 i Piw hs Snok esmgzggzzgg llbrnzhestra 0 The orchestra, under the direction of Miss Heidt, has just finished a very successful year. We have added several fine players, including a Hute, a saxaphone and a cello. During the year we played regularly for Assembly exercises. We furnished music for the Senior Class play, Dramatic Club plays, Commencement at Westminster and numerours other affairs. On March 10 we combined with the other musical organizations to give the Bells of Beaujolaisf' helping materially to make it the decided success that it was. During Music Week we combined with the orchestras in the other high schools and gavea program, the excellence of which was a revelation to those who were present. We expect to wind up with a very creditable program at our own Commencement exercises. The members of the orchestra deserve a great deal of credit for their faithful work. On cold, stormy days or in a downpour of rain it's no joke to carry an instrument back and forth and not for a season but throughout the year. The work itself has been of an especially high order. We left the jazz to other people about school and spent our time on real music with gratifying results. Prospects for a fine orchestra next year are exceedingly bright. We lose five members by gradu- ation but we have enough good material in this school for a symphony orchestra of twenty or thirty pieces if everybody will come out. The personnel of the orchestra this year was Violin Sara Bohen Wm.

Hanley Erwin Landers Chester Randall Harry Sell Harold Stadler The Central Glee Club has just completed a very successful year, the club taking ipart in a num ber of Concerts. The spirit shown this year was fine and Miss Heidt, our director, was very much pleased with the results. On January 25th the Central Hi Band gave a concert and the Girls' Chorus and Glee Club each rendered a few selections which helped to make the concert a success. During March the Girls' Chorus and the Glee Club combined in an effort to produce a successful musical operetta which was finally given March 10th in the Central Hi Auditorium. The operetta in which the members of the Clubs took part was f'The Bells of Beaujoliasf' During the last part of music week a musical program was given at Academy Hi Auditorium. The musical .organizations from the different schools in the city took part. The Glee Club was responsible for two items in the program, which were received enthusiastically. We wish to say just a word in closing in appreciation of the loyal and faithful members who have supported the Club through another successful year. 94 Wi 19z hP ukesn1g1niv9 r I Ctirls' Qlhurus During the past year the Girls' Chorus has done some excellent work. Besides having taken part twice in the regular Auditorium exercises, the Chorus contributed to the program of Music Week. They also gave a selection at the Central High Band Concert. But the big event of the year concerning the Chorus was their annual concert in the form of a Musical Comedy, The Bells of Beaujalaisf' by the combined Chorus and Glee Club. The play was a complete success. The Chorus now boasts a membership of twenty-live girls who have loyally supported its various activities. The girls are: First Soprano-Minnie Paddock, Cecil Hill, Jean Hoyt, Dorothy Dodge, Frances Wallace, Marion Mathias, Marion McDonald, Ethel Torrence, Elizabeth Smith, Marion Gray, Annette Van Geem, Aili Nokari. Second Soprano-Loretta Borges, Edna Boyd, Alice Baker, Lorna Finch, Helen Wallace, Eliza- beth Hicks.

Senior 0112155 llllag ll H UThe Importance of Being Earnest has been fully proven to the students of Central High. Miss Cantlon has shown her ability in coaching by transforming ordinary mortals into superhuman roles. Bill Illig and Bill Weaver, typical Englishmen, both in love, are finally made happy ffor a minutej by being united with their sweethearts, Marion Schmid and Augusta Knobloch, the former a lady of leisure of London, Gus, a simple country girl faltho' quite wise at thatj. Justin McCarthy, the rector, and Maybel Kroon as Miss Prism, also come to a happy end. Kathryn Newkirk as Lady Brockwell, always remembers her cues and appears on the scene in time to break up any deep love- making. Erwin Landers and Richard Carey will long be remembered for their efiiciency as butlers- a role dif-Hcult to play Without carrying off the silverware. VVtih this cast, and our coach and committee is due one of the most successful senior class plays ever staged. The committee conisted of Kenneth Horsman, Chairman, Irma Weigel, Harry Davison and Marion Schmid. 97 W 2 1111 011 ssmgn? EQ Giennis Glemn 54 Tennis is as yet only a minor sport at Central, but it is rapidly coming to the foreground in school athletics. The tournament held last year aroused great interest among the students. Competition Wsa keen throughout the tournament, which was won by Bill Illig. Another tournament was played this year for the purpose of picking the members of this year's team. With the aid of Leonard Grumblatt, one of Central's star net men of last year, prospects for a successful seaon are very bright. Manager Murphy has already scheduled matches with Academy, East High, Alumni, Hammermill, General Electric, and hopes to secure matches with a few other teams. Central's team consists of Captain Bill Illig, Paul Wilson, Harry Montgomery, Ed Pahle and Adam Smith. With this aggregation of tennis stars Central High hopes to win a majority of her matches. 98 Wggz hv llnk 125111913922 Q W? ,Wfjf ri Q i u ,fnif 'ix -F MQ ,w . .W W STAFF nf x ,My U Ke-, ,M r We xxx' .

Since that time, the Spokesman has grown both in size and quality. The board of the 1922 edition has earnestly striven to produce a volume which is honestly representative of the best that is in the school, and we believe that We have secured from those efforts a product which lives up to the standard which has been set by previous editions, in spite of the fact that the number of its pages is not equal to those of former years. The editor wishes to express her earnest appreciation for the aid which has been forthcoming from the members of the school. It is impossible for a group of students to publish a magazine with- out the backing of the entire school. Hence the fact that we have succeeded in producing such a substantial annual is testimonial itself of the unfailing support of the student body. The Spokesman is not a work of the board alone. It is not even the work of the senior class, but belongs to the whole school as a unit, and on that basis it has been published. 103 w e bs 51101: esmgn s Q :QQ MARGARET NAOMI YOUNG Peggy comes late in the alphabet, late in the book, and occasionally late to her classes, but that does not mean that she is an unimportant member of our class. Through an error in the records, she was left out of the regular class roster. In tardily recognizing her graduation, the Spokesman Board wish to acknowledge and assume the full responsi- bility for that error. At any rate, The Spokesman would not be worthy of the name without her picture. 104 WE1T92E2II11f 11uk1fs111g11 9zz Q Q' .,' x, f 1 1 1.

U Every man who has been through college knows that it is a common tendency for a boy to try his best to emulate the habits of his college chum who spends the most money. When a boy or girl enrolls in a Business College there is a very definite aim in view, and that aim is to prepare for useful Work out of which an honest living can be earned! Almost from the first he hears the other students talking about jobs, about earning salaries, about promotions and the likeg the air is impregnated with the desire to perform work. This desire is contagious and one absorbs it from the other. Lizzie Jones, the baker's daughter, stands just as well with her chums in Business College as does Elizabeth Rockmorgan, the heiress, with he chums in an eastern school of Hfashionf' Simple democracy is the order of the day! Everybody learns to workg everybody wants to workg every- body is talking about workg work becomes an honorable means of earning a living instead of a mere necessity.
