X ' 'N J cbs saga? cbs UE V 1-Y The Orchestra E That a high school orchestra plays a prominent part in school ac- tivities is proven by the excellent work accomplished by this year's musicians. . Music is an inspiration and our own orchestra has given to us, through their excellent renditions, the feeling which comes when there's music in the air. Under the capable leadership of Mr. W. S. CBillD Owen, the group has made a number of appearances throughout the school year. They have assisted the Dramatic Club on a number of occasions, have played before several auditorium meetings, at the Commencement exer- cises held in February and will render several selections at the coming graduation exercises on June 18th. Entering the Northwestern Pennsylvania Music Contest held in the Academy auditorium April 27, the Red and Black musicians impressed the large gathering with their excellent work. A Band was organized during the football season to lend a needed helping handt' in the way of school spirit when Central met their op- ponents on the gridiron. The results were satisfactory, considering the limitations imposed upon the Band. With the completion of thebnew Strong Vincent High School, the band will take the place it rightly de- serves among the organizations at school. PERSONNEL Manager.

The Girls Chorus Presenting for your critical gaze and your deserved admiration the 1928-29 Girls' Chorus, one of the most active of organizati-ons at Central High during the past school year. Much has been accomplished in what one may term the greatest season in Girl Chorus history. Having something dedicated to one's self is a most signal honor. The chorus was given the distinction when Mr. Morten J. Luvaas, director, dedicated his arrangement of the negro spiritual Let Us Cheer the Weary Traveler to the Central girls. Holding a dinner on September 17th, the Chorus initiated all new members, rightfully and painlessly f'?J The girls also emerged into the salesmanship field by selling home-made candy in the auditorium at two of the Dramatic Club presentations. On November 24th, inspired by a desire for greater wealth Cpecuniary gainj they held a Rummage sale at which all members of the Chorus and their friends generously contributed. Therefore, success! Then, becoming more socially inclined, the girls of this active organ- ization sponsored a bridge tea on December 6th at the Blue Bird Ballroom. Miss Mercer and Miss Bennett poured tea. Those attending heard the following program: Dramatic Reading ...... ............................. M agdalene Pfeil Vocal Solo .................................................................... Beth Hughson Violin and Piano Duet .............. Jane Winter and Virginia Ashby And, seemingly possessed of the spirit of those who get what they wish, they drew plans for and made their new chorus uniforms. fThey proved that if you want something done, do it yourself.J With roller skating coming into due prominence at Central during the past year, the Chorus followed the excellent example of other organizations and sponsored one of their own. fSuccessful.J The Northwestern Pennsylvania Music Contest took place in Erie on April 26th with many musical organizations from the state competing in this city for honors. The Central Girls' Chorus, entering with the deter- mination to do their very best, made a creditable showing. For those members of the Chorus who are saying goodbye to old Central in June, the undergraduates in the organization gave a farewell banquet during the latter part of May. The officers of the Chorus are as follows: FIRST SEMESTER SECOND SEMESTER F. Nagle, Pres. B. Murray, Pres. W. Nagle, Sec.-Treas. W.

Vincent high's orchestra of Erie, Pa., won a beautiful cup for their masterful renditions. The cup car-I ried with it the United Statesl championship and 31.79 from the merchants of this place. Beautifully outfitted in red and black derbies, the Strong Vincent orchestra presented a striking ap- pearance. Critics were undecided today just what they were playing but their wholesome volume of noise impressed greatly. A minor acci- dent occured in the return journey. on the train when Jean Arrow-I smith, who attempted to get a drink with the trophy, swallowed the cup. A A welcome was planned for them at Erie when Strong Vincent stu- dents met the band with sledge- hammers and pick-axes. They are not all dead-yet. HISTORY TEACHER SOJOURNS IN JAIL Because she chewed gum in class and annoyed her students with a constant clacking, Florence Burger was sentenced by Judge Albracht in Erie County court yesterday to serve from three to three and a half hours in the city jail. She will oc- cupy cell No. 11. Miss Burger thor- oughly incensed over the treatment accorded her, retaliated by shoot- mg paper-wads through a pea- blower at the judge. She also crip- pled policemen Pethtel and Wilson permanently by kicking them in the shins as she was led off to the jail. I I I LAUIIEII FUR WIIHK Acclaimed as one of the greatest photographers ever to do Spokes- man work, Albert Tideswell has just completed a four-month's oc- cupation on the Strong Vincent high year book. The Strong Vin- cenites were loud in their praise of Tideswell's work, declaring that the pictures were exact likeness. The pictures were all blanks. Tideswell came into photographic prominence ten years ago when he snapped a picture of the old Cen- tral high school building for the Spokesman Board. The only thing missing from the picture was the building. Otherwise, the shade of night that the print produced was of an excellent variety. l-l.- VIRGINIA RENZ AT WASH CONFAB By Washington Correspondent Dissolute Press fSpecialJ WASHINGTON, June 21- Miss Virginia Renz, of Erie, Pa., will officially present to President Se- bert Anderson a new hobby horse at the horse show to be held in the House of Representatives tomor-I row. The horse show will displace! the opening session of Congress. Miss Renz, who was a prominent iequestrian of Central High, at Erie, ten years ago, sustained an injury when she fell off her high horse at the Algeria Riding Academy in, that city during her local promin-I ence. Since then she has been a representative of the Nofall hob- by horse. S SET LANDING SEIIIIET AS GIIILS PREPARE FUN EPIII IIIUIINEY By Staff Correspondent Dissolute Press Special Dispatch WASHINGTON, June 21-After the unsuccessful attempts of their brothers to Hy a lighter than air machine, the Wright sisters, former teachers in the old Central High at Erie, Pa., will attempt a take-off from Langley Dield here to an un- known destination in their new Speed Goddess aeroplane. They were reticent about discuss- ing their plans. Through an in- former, the Dissolute Press learned that they hoped to take along Jo- Anna Connell as ballast until they reached an altitude of 10,000 feet and then drop the balast. The ballad of an unsuccess- ful English student, Phalan with Connell, will be sung tonight over the N. B. C. net- work by Mabel Olsen from station I. C. U. CONFETTI PLANT PURCHASE IS MADE In one of the biggest business deals contracted here for some time, William Bud Hanley pur- chased the Dunn Brick works for 321.79 from its present owners to- day. The sale includes a lock, stick and barrel. The reason for his buying of the brickyard is not known, but it is viewed by some that Ireland is ready to start an- other war with the English .and that Hanley is preparing American aid for them. Hanley denied this, saying that his only aim in the fu- ture was to produce gold bricks. He may also do a Brooklyn bridge job for the Steve Brodie Company.

Bill Getty INITIATIVE This marks the first effort on the part of a Spokesman editor to include a regular newspaper in the school annual. Unless you take what is contained in its pages as a huge joke, a great effort of the editor shall be in vain. Because we wrote it in the spirit of jest and we want you to take it in the same spirit. We tried to pan everything and everybody around old Central and you'll be forced to admit we did it well-from princi- paul to janitor. If we missed you this time, do something prominent around school and break into next year's edition. So if you see your name in the present presentation and find that you've done something dumb, TEN YEARS FROM NOW, laugh! Laugh, you big bum! EXPOSTULATION and REPLY You FRAIL boy, said the teacher, You are PHALAN in your classworkf' - It will HIRT me, said the boy, if the SHEEN and SHADE of my classwork is attacked by you. I BENNETT your home and I find that your parents do not think you are doing WRIGHT, replied the teacher. UMERCERV' said the youth. Do they think their BOYKIN do everything? 'EVANS! shrieked the teacher, your recitations are TALLING on your class work! I'll have to see the DEAN. t'From now on I'll be a leaf- TURNER, spoke up the boy, if it SIMS my soul. HUGHES wonderful boy, you, replied the teacher. 'tAfter hearing that I am in a HAYES. I can hardly BRYCE up. INTERVIEWS WITH THE GREAT I once had a boy who always selected a back seat in the class- room to fall asleep in, while I was trying to impart knowledge to the class. When finally he irked me to such a point that I asked him where he received his training, he replied, I guess it sort of runs in the family. Becoming tired of the daily oc- currence, I 0rde1'ed the boy from the room. Picking up his belong- ings, he sauntered toward the door. Reaching there after a laborious process of putting one foot in front of the other, he slowly turned his Morpherian features in my direc- tion and asked in a most drawling voice: 'tWhere shall I go? I don't know where you should go, I replied, but Rip Van Winkle slept for twenty years in the Cats- kill Mountains- but maybe you haven't train fare enough to get there. HEROIC DEED The heroic act of a high school student yesterday saved the dirig- ible Los Angeles from being un- seen as the huge balloon passed in lazy flight over the heart of Erie. Principal Frail, notified of the ldirigible's appearance at Harbor- creek, attempted to sound the fire siren but got the shock of his life 12200 voltsl. The youth, passing by Mr. Frail, saw the occurrance and instantly Cyelled his brains out. The squeak was heard in every iclassroom and when teachers be- came terrified with the thought 'that mice were playing about, stu- dents mutinied and rushed pell- 'mell from the building. Charlie Shreve, playing with a pea-blower, shot at the balloon and ldamaged the gas bag. He is being Xheld for Detention Room. The yelling of the boy was a brave act. His brains will be res- cued and sent to the Smithsonian Institute as a relic of one fellow .who wasn't afraid to blow out his brains for old Central. LAWYERS F AINT Fire late yesterday, ravaging the Erie County Court House, destroy- ed the 1929 Class Will. Billy Newton, Bobbie Fitting and Roger Williams, lawyers who drew up the Will, were prostrated over the occurence as it required min- utes of effort to complete. l l l Y YW, Y W BLOW OUTS i l by l 1 O. O. Autotire . H, Y. .,,,, ,W .l Presented by Mr. Elmer G. Frail and opposed by Fritz McCabe, a prominent district attorney, a bill in the legislature provides for two school vacations yearly, each of six months' duration. Passage is doubtful. Because his pupils won an im- portant victory over Academy in Ping Pong, Principal Elmer G. Frail declared two holidays for the students-Saturday and Sunday. Instead of the usual procedure, that of tying a string around the finger to have somebody remember something, the State yesterday tied a rope around the neck of Bert Woodburn to remind him that such a thing as the killing of Inez Mercer isn't allowed nowadays. TRAGIC DEATH The terrifying practice of riding tricycles through school halls came to a tragic ending yesterday when Bobbie Fitting rode down two flights of stairs at Strong Vincent High and broke his neck. There is a ray of light in the death, however, for it will have the effect of awakening council members to the danger. The class of 1929 started the practice. The class of 1939 must end it. If not, then broken necks wil come often and soon. Erie parents are up in arms. Tricycle riding in halls must stop or else it will be stopped with+ broken necks. ACCIDENT Running down stairs at his home yesterday afternoon, Joe O'Keefe missed the first step and as a result mised them all, breaking his collar button. The youth is resting comfortably today under doctor's care. Kindly omit flowers. TOO BAD! Unable to attend the annual Folly banquet, Bob Bryan, re- porter, sent the following telegram: Unable to attend. Children are going out tonight and I must stay home with the nurse. June 21, 1939 PHALAN FOLLY Page Three B TTLE OF CENTURY CARDED Strong Vincent Defeats Zions In Great Game Riding roughshod over a team that was supposedly their superiors, Strong Vincent High School's Bit- ing Kernels defeated Coach William Shay's Academy Zions on Strong Vincent High School field yester- day afternoon by a score of 100 to 0. Piling up a huge score and hit- ting the Academy line with every- thing but the bleacher seats, the Red and Black paid uP 501119 Old scores that have existed for more than 15 years. A great crowd saw the game with Cheerleaders Shanor and Wallace performing brilliantly on the sidelines for Strong Vincent. The only casualty of the cruel fray came in the fourth quarter when Linesman Illig attempted to run between the goal posts. Both his shoulders were fractured. Because of a deficit in track funds, Professor Shanor arranged this football match for midsummer and was most fortunate in secur- ing the Zions as they were booked to attend a tea-party at Miss Adam's Tea Room, MARRIAGE LECENSES Marriage licenses, issued today at the courthouse by Register Agnes Chacona, find former Centralll-Iigh School students figuring prominent- ly. fThis story was placed on the sport page as a prediction that John Carney can arrange for several fights in his arena within the near futurei. The following licenses were is- sued: Adelle M. Illig, home: Donald Johnson, laborer. Beatrice Butler, soda-store own- erg Durker Braggins, ship's car- penter. Mary Louise Gray, geometry in- structor: Billy Shea, reporter. Virginia Renz, owner o f a horse: Bud Hanley, mortician funder- takerj. Muriel Root. America's foul- shooting champion, Rudolph Nebb, humorist. Dean and Wallace Ready For Opening Gong ln Audi Ring By Sport Despondent In one of the greatest fistic en- counters ever arranged for a local ring, Killer Howie Dean and, Guillotine Wallace will trot their! prowess before a packed house in Carney's Auditorium tomorrow night. The Battle of the Gentry is carded for 8:15 o'clock. Both the contestants were hope- ful on the eve of the contest. I am in perfect condition, said Wallace, after pounding desks at Central High School for eleven years. Dean, the pride of the East End District, assured himself a victory. Nobody else does. You know, he said, after studying Caesar, one learns how to lick an entire army. That's just what he'll have to do to- morrow night as Wallace packs a mean wallop in either lunch hook. As there is intense feeling in both camps, Hamot and St. Vincent's hospitals will remain open all night to care for the injured. Dan Han- ley also has a contract. ull- I i '1.Q' .

It marks the annual Tournament of Moses festivity in this Western Hemis- phei'e. The Erie players, home from col- lege, will present a sti'ong lineup when they represent the East here. The Passengers claim they will an- nihilate the Erie aggregation. In that event the railroad company will refund one-half of the ticket- purchase money. All in all, it looks like a killing event. Because his players have been re- ceiving so many love letters from home, and also to guard against the Passadena threat, Coach James fRawl Hyde, Erie mentor, will have his team outfitted with the let- ters to form a coat of mail. Passadena refused to divulge their starting lineup. Following is the Erie array, the names having been released to newspaper obituary editors for publication immediately after the game: Left end, Collins, Doter Name: left tackle, Canni, Polk Institute: Left guard, Speer, Mulberry Bush Seminaryg Center, Ludwig, Broken Jaw U. of the College of Hard Knocks, right guard, Abe Silin.

Door checks and 'more checks will be served. Among the notable guests arriv- ing for the affair are: Jerome Masiroff, president of the Juddle- Pumper Auto Co., Theodore Blaze, managing director of the No-Blaze Fire Insurance Co., Lucille and Marion Nick, co-partners of the Knick-Knack Kutlery Kompanyg Mary Flavia Quigley, owner of the Quigley Gum Co.g Elveda Lizzi, sis- ter of Henry Ford: George Gaadt, head of the Gaadt-in-Himmel Corp. Three of the arrivals were badly injured this morning when a through Pullman train failed to stop at Erie. Rolling over in their bunks, the three fell off the rods beneath the coach. HAROLD HIGGS FOUND IN SHOE STORE BOX When Harold Higgs was found hiding in a shoe-box at the Nisely Shoe Company Store, 1006 State St., last night by the manager, a six-month's disappearance of the youth was solved. According to reports of the police department. made public today, the tale of the Higgs-iinding is an unusual one. The manager was preparing to close shop for the day when he no- ticed a pair of shoes lying on one of the store seats. Pulling out a shoe- box to put the shoes back in stock, the manager noticed Higgs curled up and fast asleep in the container. When Higgs awakens, if he ever does, police will question him as to his disappearance. As it is now, the mystery enshrouds itself in a veil of secrecy that will be torn away only when Higgs speaks and tells to the world the cause of the six-month's absence. Declaring that black eves were the mark of an honest trade, J. Pierpont Clough fcommonly known as Arthur TJ spoke today before members of the Erie County Bar- room Association. The speech was clear and force- ful and Clough was presented with two black eyes by members of the Association for his helpful talk. Grad Statue Is Unveiled at Park N An immense throng gathered in West Perry Square today, wit- nessed the unveiling of the statue to the memorable Central High School class of 1929. Every part of the student body of that year was represented in the work, with -the exception 'of Joe O'Keefe's'nose, which was 'kicked 'off 'by ra' laborer when he failed to lean in a rightful posture. It was hailed as a typical moron ,cast, by Head Janitor John C. Feel l of the Erie School Board. Mr. George C. Bore, when he viewed the plaster, said: It is worth the price 1 of admission to see-which is free. CORCORAN VICTOR IN BATTLE OF STRAW l IN F OLLY DIGEST l In the greatest straw vote ever lconducted by a newspaper in Erie fCounty, Dan E. Corcoran, city 1 street cleaner, polled a total vote of 11125 for the office of mayor in the Folly Digest, leading his nearest opponent by 1126 votes. How this came about no one knows, although the adding was done by Miss Tur- ,ner, former teacher at Central, who made the compilation by algebra. It is figured that a few 'fx's may 'have been dislodged unwittingly by lthe adder tharmlessl . In the recent election, the Folly 'straw vote was 99 and 44-100 per cent pure, we mean true. The vic- tory of Corcoran came when the corner on straw in the market lhousel had been taken up by his backers. Corcoran may now cut down heavily on city governmental ex- penditures by feeding the straw votes to Tomboy, who has taken a liking to Shredded Wheat. HOWARD SMITH NEW BAND LEADER West Springfield, Pa., June 21.- An announcement which will be greeted by Erie folks with three cheers was made here today by headquarters of the town Regi- mental Band who state that How- ard Smith of Erie has been se- lected as leader. A I I I I l Glenn Irwin is Here For a Lecture at Elks Mistaking the Union Depot for the Grand Central Terminal in New York City, Glen Irwin, former Erie boy, will lecture tonight in the Elk's Auditorium instead of . the Metro- politan Opera House for which he had an engagement to speak before the Tonsorial artists union. Finding that Irwin could not make proper connections to New York City, the Erie Teachers' As- sociation, through Miss Bennett, engaged the noted gentleman for this evening. His lecture, Ten Days in a Tar Room. will be fraught with personal remin- iscences, Irwin having had experi- ence in being tarred at Central High School more than ten years ago. He is well fortified in the lecture field, having received excellent in- struction from his former principal, Mr. Elmer G. Frail. He will be lodged at the City Hotel, Seventh End Peach Sts., during his stay in rie. PLAY CAST NOW SHOWS IN CAPITOL Washington, D. C., June 21.- This week's opening feature at the Capitol is a revival of the comedy favorite, t'When's Your Natal Fes- tivity? bv membersof the 1929 Central High School CErie, Pa.J graduating class. It is a special performance by the same old cast, with no scenery, no hope and-no foolinl. According to Director Charlotte Wermin, there will be no plot. One word will lead to another and that's all. Press clippings from other cities in which the comedy has played state: f'Another mystery play. You rlon't know what it's all about. Twice as good as 'Rain'. Has more wind.

Frail was trampled underfoot and killed yes- terday. It marked the first catas- trophe in school history. Just what disposition will be made of the case is not known. An examination of the former princi- pal's face will be made by Coroner Gaadt to see what make of heel- plates caused the tragedy. An ef- fort will be made to round up the slayers. I-IOWLING NOISE DRIVES AWAY CROWD When he was refused admittance to hear Jack Crawford and his Vic- Ntor Recording Band at Peeve K l l Stulakos-on-the-Take last night, Claire Sullivan, former Central High School youth, set up such a howling noise that 150 couples fcustomersb were driven away from the doors, believing that the noise was the music made by the orchestra. Peeve Stulakos, when he heard of the occurrence, brought a damage suit against Sullivan in Jovial Court for five cents 1597. Whether the can collect the huge amount from Sullivan is considered doubtful by court attaches as Sullivan has been unemployed for the last few months. The howling also made itself known over the radio network of station WRACK and listeners-in immediately petitioned Washington for a discontinuance of the station, believing that it was up to its old tricks. on the southeast corner of Tenth and Sassafras Streets for over nine years, will be torn down according to an announcement from Mayor Harold Weber's ofiice.

Newton for a cup of coffee in New York City late today, John E. Collins was arrested by Officer Al Brooks of the 41st prc- cinct police station and given a hearing before Judge T.Ezra Hitch. He was remanded to jail without bail. It was brought out at the hear- ing that Newton, having purchased the Brooklyn Bridge, Singer Build- ing, the Flatiron Building and Metropolitan Opera House for a total of twenty 1201 cents, became suspicious when he was offered the purchase of the VVoolworth Build- ing bv -Collins. Newton later testi- Zied that Collins may have been the one who sold him the other build- ngs. This is conceded as likely by police. who found out that the pris- oner had experience in making up while he was a dramatic player at Central High School in Erie. Police are going to give Collins a three-months' chance to sell the basement of the 41st Precinct police station to the rest of the inmates. If successful. he may further his operations in selling Sing Sing Prison to Colonel Lindberg, who is trying to find a place free from gathering crowds.

Inspector Critical Result of Fight With Banditti As a result of an embroglio with banditti late yesterday, William W. Kay, gas-house inspector for the First Ward, is resting uncomfort- ably in the padded cell at the Baehr-Battell Memorial Hospital. The police 1'iot-squad, after bomb- ing the Russick Fraternity house for Homeless Boys at Tenth and Cherry Sts.. picked up several sus- pects who were hiding in the corner sniffing cokes. They gave their names as G. Ashby White, R. Dem- erest Owen and L. Dichard Dro- zeski. According to the incoherent re- port of Kay. he was left on the! street with two discolored optics, a bent lunch-hook and a dent in the cupola. He received another dent gat the hospital when he was brought in, a nurse giving him a second clout when he tried to make love to her. VVhen one of the suspects began to weep. a complaint was lodged by inmates of the city hostelry, who were forced to hang from the raft- ers to escape being drowned. SMOKE SCREEN GIVES BOYS AWAY Accused of the dastardly crime of smoking cigarettes in a car at Tenth and Sassafras Sts., Robert Schluiaff and Beau Spaghetti, two notorious town youths, were hailed before Judge Davis Monday and given a hearing. They declared they did not need one as their hear- ing was very good. Judge Davis proceeded immediately to destroy their hearing. The youths were nabbed by Hawkshaw Shaner, a non-de- script member of the police force. His watch-dog tactics bore fruit when he saw smoke issuing from the car in which the boys were situated at the time. He was almost overcome by the smoke-screen which the boys threw up in their efforts to evade capture. Recovering from his exposure to the vile perfume, VVatch-dog Shaner gave chase and caught the vouths rounding the corner of Tenth and Peach Sts. They will also be arraigned to- l . morrow on this charge as the corner at that point is supposed to be square.

ROGER WILLIAMS ROBERT FITTING WILLIAM NEWTON 106 f-+:.'ff' - 1 N if-1 cbs cbs Class Profecy .Ll So many people of the 1929 graduating class distinguished themselves in various pursuits that we felt free to let our imagination run riot and predict the following accidents, happenings, marriages or what have you for them. If the predictions don't come true, don't blame us. We only lived here for four years. But all joking aside, here's what is going to happen fLicense No. 999,999 granted for the purpose of telling fortunesl : Who would have expected such a thing? Not I, of all people-but there goes Arthur Clough hurrying for his next appointment at the Y with a dashing blonde clinging to his arm.

The gates of dawning are open, the trumpets of morning resound, Thro' the Olympian portals, the chariot comes with a boundg It flies o'er the cloudless heaven, while ahead in solemn array, The conquered goddess of midnight is swiftly fading away. -ARABELLA FRY 110 f , -X 5-I., 'ls cbs 2532? cbs it arye' ' .'

THOMAS PHALAN 4 ,-1-sf- - . fs - . cbs asia? cns U The creation of anything new is always marked by problems of' the most serious sort. When The News was Hrst planned at Central the staff had the same difiicul- ties which attend the ushering into the literary field of a high school newspaper. All the seeming perplexities dissolved themselves into nothingness as The News was reared in true journalistic style at Central. It was acclaimed with the greatest of enthusiasm and the students expressed themselves in clever and competent manner. They also acomplished the feat of editing both a year book and a news- paper, an accomplishment of the greatest sort when the tremendous labors fand worriesj are realized. The 'fmake-up of the sheet was more than a novel one for a high school pub- lication and proved the ingenuity of the executive staff. The correct writing of 'fheads and the strict conformity to daily press style were two desirable features of The News. As a result of the competent work of those in charge of the paper, The News was privileged to carry um scrml f QW 4-V1 -L X B , P Bs A5SOC.llk N having been invited to join the national press group after the publication was viewed by association members. Journalism, although not included in the curriculum at Central, has given invalu- able experience to those on the staff whose course in the Fourth Estate came from the actual working out of the confronting problems. That The News will continue at Central high and later on at Strong Vincent high is assured by the fact that the executive staff had the foresight to train under- classmen into the intricacies of getting-out the paper and also because the faculty consider it more than a worthwhile venture.

To those of us interested heart and soul in Journalism, The News and The Spokesman will not be our last works. They are but stepping stones to something higher. Perhaps to a city-desk position on the New York Times, a correspondent's work on a London daily, a copy-reader on the Los Angeles Express.

'N 5. le- 41 c ns Esate I 'I f. r -f i g ig THIS ERIE WEATHER There is something freakish about Erie that always makes the weather act queer and irregular when it comes to us. With all good intentions a storm may have been scheduled for this fair city. It is forecasted as on its way, seen in a distance moving here, in fact it may almost arrive and then for no reason at all it turns around and goes back. That's all right-we are perfectly willing to miss the storms. One can easily do without them. But what about those warm,,fair days that are prophesied so often?-and never appear. The weatherman concedes us a week of sunny, balmy weather. The first day it may arrive-but in a few hours the sky is overcast and it rains and rains and rains. And the next day-and the next day-and the next. A person once remarked to me fand rightly tool that all an inhabitant of Erie needed was a raincoat, unbrella and rubbers and he was equipped for the year. It was an exceedingly wise observation but he omitted one fact-that a new set must be bought about every other month. They do wear out so quickly in our constant downpour. Now when it doesn't rain you would think we would be permitted to have some sunny weather. But that would be breaking all rules and regulations that the weather observes when butting Erie. Its creed seems to be, Be different, be original. So on the days it doesn't rain-it's merely a nice cloudy gray sky with clouds that threaten but never fulfill-and a cool damp wind blowing from the east. We are just as apt to have snow in May, and warm days with a south.wind in December. In fact we have had them. I wonder if the weather man doesn't get just a little disgusted at times. Goodness knows he tries hard enough. He isn't to blame when the prophesied weather doesn't appear. It's just that peculiar effect that Erie has upon the weather. But then I'm doing the weather a grave injustice- we do have sunny days-occasionally. Yes, about once a week the sun will peep dismally through a cloud. All day he strives to get up some degree of brilliance and then worn out with the struggle the should realize by now that the odds are against himj sinks back behind a cloud. And then it rains. Someday I'm going to fool the weather. VVhen the mornings are warm and sunny I shall start out to school in raincoat and rubbers, confident in the fact that it will rain before sundown. For it always does! Or, if it should be raining in the morning I shall appear in full regalia, prepared for a warm sunshiny day-for it will be by nightfall. At present, the sun is sinking down into the lake in a warm red glow prophesying a fair day for tomorrow. That would go for any other city but Erie. I am willing to wager anyone it rains tomorrow. But that would be an unfair bet for it will-and it is. -DOROTHEA WITTMAAK PURE CHARACTER Of all the pocketbooks there are, new one, old ones, big ones, round ones, and rectangular. I believe that only the old. worn-out, weatheiubeaten purse has the most character. There are some that from the beginning do not possess a thing, no matter how beautifully they are outfitted or how long they last. Only the plain, comfortable, leather pocketbook, that betravs the good breeding of its owner, can be said to possess any character. Even though it ages it seems to lose none of its good looks, and though its sides seem fairly to burst at times from the crowded contents it loses none of its capableness. -ANN NASON A SHORT, SHORT STORY It couldnit have happened in a million years-but it did. And here's how. But before we get to the interesting part of the story we've got to 'pad' the tale because otherwise we wouldn't make the proper place on the page ready to be sent out now to the compositor. If you think the unusual is in any way untrue, speak to Jimmy Reardon about it. He told it to us and it casts a new light on the Modern Youth just coming into its own-a generation which can take a joke and-like it! It seems that Jimmy and Ted, that's the fellow whom you met at the last Tau 114 Q . 'u eff- ff!?73siaE ,. K X ' fr -X , 3.2, C fl S ' V C FIS dance, were wished onto two fblinds' fcowboy chatter for 'bum steers'J and the only place open with the dinner dance music you love to listen to, slumped back into a chair and the smoke curling its slow upward fiight, was the Chrysalis. Where did they go? To the Chrysalis. Instead of slumping down into a chair they slumped all over the floor with the girls to the breakdown power of the Varsity Drag step. And they were becoming tired of punishing the old hob-nail expresses ffeetj. Suddenly the recuperative power of Jimmy asserted itself. Or shall we say that the respiration was given by the sight of Ruth and Edna? Unfamiliar to you, I judge, but old friends to Jim and Ted. Pleading an acquaintanceship at another table, Jim slowly arose and fluttered an eye-lid to Ted. Jimmy retired to the grill room and using his most correct English he wrote asking the girls if they might not call for them when their boy-friends ushered them home. Accidently tripping on the soft carpet near Edna's chair, Jimmy managed to slip the note to her and retired to his own table. A shy glance and the upward swing of a tousled head assured him that his request was granted. Excuses were offered to the two girls whom Jim and Ted had brought out to the club. Yes, it was too bad but the Prof was really starting his plan of extermina- tion on those students who consistently violated his rule of 'lights out at twelve.' Would they be glad to leave now? Sorry to go, yes, but the Prof is a terror. They rushed the two girls to their respective homes and then waited in seclusion until the other two men had bid fond good-nights to both Edna and Ruth. And then the four started once again for the Chrysalis, this time paired in a little dilferent manner than they had started the evening in earlier. Having arrived at the club and being seated in comfortable style at one of the corner tables they received the shock of their lives. The two girls whom Jim and Ted had taken home had entered with the two men who had taken Eclmz and Ruth back! Surprised? No word for it! But the evident hair-raising feeling of both sides caused a gasp of surprise that ended in laughter. They all saw the funny side and made the best of it. It couldn't have happened in a million years, but . . . A V -BILL GETTY REVERIE Hans Schmetler and Christophe Hoeffler, the composers, strummed softly on their harps, within the gates of heaven. Ach, Hans, I wonder if they still play my compositions down on earth. In the United States, where they so quickly accepted my scherzo, my beloved aria, myiu Here he was interrupted by the other. . Always me and mine. What about my serenade? Ah, I'll wager they're still playing it there on earth. Come, my friend, let's get a permit and go down and see for ourselves. The two shades arrived on the Great White Way. Bewildered, they paced up and down the streets until they at last found a sign telling of a concert in the Elmwood Music Hall. Quick, Hans, we must fly there. Over the skyscrapers and elevated trains they soared, until they at last reached the Hall. They entered noiselessly and sat down next to two typical flappers. The phantoms heard a conversation something like this: And, dearie, let me tell you what he says. He says, 'Meet me on the corner of seventy-sixth and Elmwood at five o'clock.' I came there on time and no Frank could I find. Now I'm going to waste time for an hour and make him wait. You're perfectly right, darling. We can wait here just as well as anywhere. Let's see the program. They're going to play-- Just then, the leader raised his baton and the orchestra struck up into the lively tune of HoefHer's Mazurka Ah, whispered the phantom, how gratifying-how happy I am! The Happer on his right muttered an exclamation of joy and then ended with a sigh. Golly, Rosie, for a minute I thought they were going to play Sweet Kisses, that's what they played last night at Juneland. It's the snappiest song! Naw, this isn't it. It sounds like a funeral march. 115 . .,, , .Q N M ZA, Fir, QQ c bs assi' chs Young lady, said Christophe to the girl, this is not a funeral march, although I did write a very beautiful one. I hope they play it, you will enjoy it. This is a lively dance. No doubt, they played it last night at the Junelandf' The girl snapped her gum, and remarked to the other that she couldn't sit through an hour of this and decided to meet Frank right now. Hans watched her as she left and his heart ached when he saw how few people were in the audience and fewer listening. There was a multitude of vagrants who, trying to catch some sleep, would angrily shake their fist at the music, when it reached its high spots. They must have their sleep. At length, the disillusioned spirits decided to nnd some other place of music where they were sure their works would be appreciated. A Purple Pup sign caught their attention. They stood in front of the place and heard strains of lively music, in fact, very, very, lively. Come, my friend, let us enter here. It must be a freak exhibit, I, myself, have never seen a purple dog. So saying, Christophe took his collegue's arm and entered the night club. A blare of loud music greeted them. People, supposedly civilized, were hopping and whirling all over the small dance fioor in time to this mad blare. Himmel, cried Hans, clapping his hands to his ears, this is bedlam., We must have entered a madhouse. But where is the purple dauschhundt'?i' The two shades wandered to the orchestra where the musicians were taking a rest. Next on the program, called the announcer, will be a new piece, called 'Wah, dah, dah,' The crowd shrieked with laughter at this and the orchestra started, at first softly and slowly. Hans, Christophe cried, it is the prelude to my Dreams of Childhood! The time is all wrong. No, it isn't my song after all. That is my beloved aria-that which they're playing now. Too loud, too fast. Ah, what have they done to it? It doesn't sound like my beautiful aria! lamented Hans. They went to the orchestra. Thieves, thieves, you have stolen our materpieces. Give them back, fools, lunatics! they cried. The leader laughed and continued sing- ing: Wah, dah, dah, that's what they're singing now. Sing it, folks. And the crowd answered, Wah, dah, dah. -AUDREY COWAN AN IMPRESSION The most wonderful monument in the world is not made by human hands from gilt and marble-it is built by love and sacrifice,-it is the towering cathedral. Cathedrals are messengers from eternity. Their works of art present the delicate beauty, the inspired joy of a good life: their sturdy, protective massiveness stands for the power, the mercy of Him whose spirit fills themg their brave defiance of the ele- ments, and passing years, that very durability, which reigning, while less noble works crumble, symbolize the immortality of the soul. I know one friendly cathedral which is delightful to visit just before the sunset hour. Golden rays filtering through the brilliantly colored windows bring the scenes on them to life. In the rose hued beams of light, which play on the pure white marble altars, the much sought Holy Grail is easily found. Everywhere there is a solemn hush. Only the faint rustle from the garments of saints walking amid the misty arches breaks the silence. Here there is peace for those who seek itg here we may meet Him who always awaits us. Indeed, cathedrals serve manifold purposes in a community, they stimulate, they nourish, they inspire. They live for us and serve to arouse our nobler deeds and aspirations. Their beauty is divine and amid this beauty is Divinity. - JAMES CONDREN ON CENTRAL No more banging of doors to keep them shut, no more noises vibrating through the halls, no more squeaky boards and treacherous stairs, no more fiimsy excuses to go over town for a periodg in fact, no more fun! I think everyone, in general, feels the same about our new high school. Everyone in Erie whether rich or poor, worthy or unworthy can look upon Centrol as his Alma Mater. Suddenly without a hint, they are all left without one. In the cold. We, the June graduates, will be the same. We can sympathize with our parents. Our parents with us. 116 -45 ,CW YB' .g y , .. i 9 1 x gf X J .A ,. .Y . - ' A f., .:' i ., f ?' E1'Se..e. , . Q, 3 ::zf' In N ' 133 . Q R 9 x x ' .135-Sing-ev f' , X ' V- K Sea: i A ' . NBS?

In spite of the age and inconveniences of Central, it still worms its way into one's heart and sticks there. I think many passers-by will look at one another, after seeing the ancient site, with an understanding tear in their eye. What days those were for them! What days they are now for us! Fun, excitement, laughter mingled with some work, sorrow and tears constitutes Central. Of course, there are exceptions as in every school. There are those industrious, never-tiring persons who think of nothing but study, study, study! But would there be much fun without planning dances, parties, teas, and every possible social function? I imagine every student could ramble through the entire building, at random, blindfolded, pointing out the rooms, oflice, library and study hall with ease. Poor Central! Think of her once happy halls, Hlled with hosts of students, laughing, playing, worrying or calculating, silent and re-echoing with silence. No- friendsg no foes, just an empty building full of regrets at losing its charming host of friends. But even if they are gone, even when it is being torn down, brick by brick, it can say: I made them happy while they were here thus fulfilling my commission so I, too, a111 content. -POLLIE NASON THE GAMENESS OF A -- It was an awful struggle, he was by far her superior and he showed little or no me1'cy. She looked at him pitiously and squirmed to rid herself of his fierce grasps, but he always kept the upper hand. At length he threw her on the sands at his feet, for an instant she lay there panting and half-decided to give in. Suddenly she noticed a Hash and looking up saw her assailant approaching with a huge knife. She knew this man was vicious but she did not think he would be fiend enough to kill. Wiggling and scrambling she made a last attempt to escape. In an instant the knife Hashed thru the ai1' and caught her just below the head. It was a mighty slash and her little body did not stir again. He next attacked the body with the knife and as we sat eating the flesh and meat we all remarked the gameness of the little fish. -BILLY NEWTON STAIRS What odd but useful and necessary contraptions they are! High ones, short ones, wide ones, narow ones, stone ones, wooden ones, log ones and pebble ones. The first time one discovered what they were was when he was a little tot and when Mom dressed him in his play clothes and gave him her permission to play in the mud and make those much loved and remembered mud pies. He was so anxious to get his soft pink hands in the black, soft. oozy mud that he ran out the back door in haste and started down the old wooden steps. After it was all over he cried, I faw down and go boom! A few years passed and one morning as he was coming down to breakfast, late as usual, he tripped on the soft stair carpet, sumersaulted, rolled and fell down those high, narrow second floor stairs. Even though it did hurt he tried to be manly and keep back the tears. Next came school. As young legs are stronger than old ones the First grade room was located on the third floor. And according to his now established custom he had to see if these steps were any softer than the others. The steps were not so wide but it was a long way to the bottom which he soon found out. His motto he now changed to Never again. Then there are those narrow high cellar stairs so hateful to every boy. How many times have they been the cause of the downfall of a jar of Mother's most de- licious jam. If there were no cellar stairs it would give the poor always tired-out boy an excuse for not firing the furnace or bringing up that much needed basket of potatoes. Better let sister do that. A sure sign that winter is coming is when the janitors bring out the board planks from the cellar and adjust them on the City Hall and Post Oiiice stone steps. Those nice hot blistering stone steps in the summer and glassy icy ones when King Winter reigns. Seems to be the very best place for sleighing. But since this is impossible what is better than to go to High School and ascend and descend that worn and much trodden stairway, the reproduction of the famous stairway in the Grand Opera House 118 ,gf- C 'N b.gf'i- my . f j j in Paris. A chilly and tingling sensation runs up and down one's spine when his foot sinks into the crevice worn by the feet of many gone before but if one is too tired to walk it is very thrilling to slide down the shiny narow bannisters whose posts bring the free slide to an abrupt end. But how different are the stairs of the tenement houses. Those dirty, narrow, high run down steps who if they would talk could tell many a tale of sadness and gladness. But nevertheless, no matter how big or small, in whatever condition they are, stairs are a necessity. -MARY KING EVIL WEALTH The table was covered with crisp, green bank notes. What ecstasy it was for Gotham to sit and gaze at them! The fortune he had set out to obtain in China was his at last. But a pang of conscience bothered his Irish heart. It told him that this was dishonest weallth,-that he had bought it with his soul. It asked him to think it over how he had gathered it. Dimly it reminded Gotham of long past meditations before a confession as he began to muse over those last six years. He saw himself joining the rebel army,- deftly arising to command unscrupulous men,-leading troops to victory amid the roaring, white heat of battle. Then the English Oil Company came. He had tried to get the land from the farmers by peaceful means and would have succeeded if an American educated heathen by the name of Sin Foo hadn't organized them to resist. But he had the army,-a little bloodshed,-and now the English agent had just been given the lease to the land in return for this money. Queer, for him to be uneasy like this! Perhaps he had best leave China at once- could there be somebody behind him? My God! it was that damned Sin Foo and his men. Sin Foo laid the lease on the table, took the money and went out the street door, while Gotham sat numb, paralyzed. Then he awoke from his stupor and rushed to the door but it resisted him-it was locked. Strange,too, the key was on the inside. Gotham reeled, why what was wrong with him? That cursed money was still on the table. Yet an hour later it was gone and torn pieces of the recent lease fell where the notes had been. A contented sigh came from Gotham as he arose from his chair. How easy it was to turn the key and walk out into the clear sunshine, and, only down the street the soft chant of afternoon vespers issued from a little monastery. -JAMES CONDREN WHY WALK - The student population of the school is rapidly acquiring an excellent collection of antique motor cars. The warm breezes of spring have swept these decrepit vehicles from their peaceful resting places in abandoned garages and junk yards to portals of learning. The general trend seems to be toward the less expensive types of cars, preferably touring, with no top, or with the top down, advertising the joys of open air travel. What could be more dignified than a 1919 model Ford touring car chugging out Tenth Street at a full thirty miles an hour, with seven disciples of learning in and about the tonneau. What matter if the engine is missing on three cylinders, the tires tied on with twine, the wheels ready to fall off and the engine going full speed at forty miles an hour. What matter if more time is spent under the vehicle than behind the wheel, it runs. Better spasmodic service than dissecting its quivering frame under the junkman's torch. More plutocratic cars may sneer at their plebian relatives but the trend of the times is a great leveler, and these wrecks now have the upper hand in popularity. Why pay an enourmous sum, from seventy-five to two thousand dollars on a car? Get one of these mechanical nightmares, tie it together with hay wire and patch the tubes with chewing gum and drive it until it falls apart like the One Hoss Shay. -ALLAN WILSON 119 I ff-K x . n F if - X 536 niig,-.ED .1 fflff'f !-,,,.,-- ' Y' XV1- ff- 'g, X . f5 cw XXX' ' I ' 1 , X l X X X' I , , V 'H M Nwfmi 'X' W, N 1 X X Kmxux I VKNHWW un Hu ml XX Wu We '-MMI, mill, - xxt, xx tm In Wxxxmvf HK , HH WQXWW X R XX NY- Mxm WX lwilym u I X Ill ' Ill HVIIIHNIHHH :mum munummlu ,U 1 'vllunmvuumlll V!

So did the human race in its childhood. Herodotus Wrote of 'tCadmus, the Trojan who is credited with having introduced the Phoenician alphabet among the Greeks. The latter, having learned to make symbols represent sounds, would write their first line from right to left after the fashion of their Semitic teachers. Then the second line would run from left to right and so the inscription would wind back and forth. Soon, however, Greek writing settled down to a left to right order. The Greek characters were changed by the Romans, Whose ideas of letter formation we have modified very little even to this day. Cadmus, whether a real person or merely a name to represent Phoenician culture, deserves our thanks. For With the successor to his alphabet the thoughts and experi- ences of today go into more than one hundred languages- on millions of sheets of paper-and tomorrow spread their benefits before a new generation.

Introducing Dan Corcoran, the Spark Plug of Central High School, the spark that is able to coax from the lungs of Central High rooters a combustion that has not been equaled in sev- eral decades. Dan is also an accomplished baseball player, his only rival for the keystone sack being Sparky Adams. CHESTER LEVANT DAVIS, Chet Basketball 4. Fore!! There goes Chet doing his usual daily dozen on the golf course. Perhaps Chester shall some day be as famous a lawyer as his father lthat is if he takes off his mask of reservej. ROBERT MCCORMICK DECKARD Bob Mmzager of Football 4- Hi-Y 3, 4. Bob may never become a political orator for the Elephants or Donkeys but he'll surely be found among those unsung martyrs who ap- pear behind the scenes. Serious to a marked degree, and filled with the thought that edu- cation means all, Deckard has spent well his four years stay at Central. To thine own friends be true -and Bob is true. GEORGE CHRISTIAN GAADT In his intercourse with Circumstance through- out Life, may George always be in the right, but right or wrong, our George. If industry and Perseverance lead to success, George al- ready has a corner on the Success market. GEORGE GAMBATESE, Georgie His ship for Life's storm-tossed sea is well- builtg flying the Hag of Success at its mast- head, it will ultimately reach its port, a beacon of achievement enshrouding a staunch form. Maiori, skipper! MARION FRANCES GOODRICH Orchestral 2, 3, 4. Can't you enjoy the devilish twinkle in her eyes and the slow, drawling good humor of her speech? Oh yes! And she has a fiddle which has made music in our halls of learning for lo! these many years. 14 si- f' A ighiff- ' :N ii-'5 L -X QT, 3-N g g X f srs A EJ - . , JEAN ELIZABETH HORTON Jean, what did that photographer do to you? Where's your smile? Three and a half years of cheerful smiling, then this? Perhaps that seriousness denotes the earnest studiousness underlying your expression. That combina- tion of cheer and purpose may well be envied. HELEN SUSAN KARHU Secretary 4. Central will surely miss her- our blonde- the one who hangs around the office 2nd period conversing with the stenographer. Perhaps she is taking a few lessons for she intends to be one herself some day-another daughter enters the business world! BARBARA OWENS KENNEDY We see her Haming locks about darkened halls, but never yet have we had a glimpse of that proverbial temper which accompanies them. A white cap will make a becoming crown when one day she earns the right to wear it,-as a graduate nurse. JEAN KIRSCHNER Jean is certainly a girl of true worth. While she attended school here with us she also took classes at Erie Branch of Pitt. What a good sport and friend she is too! MARJORIE ELEANOR GERTRUDE KRIEDER Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4 What could the orchestra have done without Marjorie to play the piano? Some day Mar- jorie may be featured on the concert stage- who knows? If so, we'll be there to hear you, Marjorie.

Pep comes in handy in the business world, too. Mabel is fond of dancing and why not, for a fine, handsome young man has danced his way into her heart and seems to be staying there. RALPH DEMEREST OWEN R-EADY A-MBITIOUS L-OYAL P-ATIENT H-ONEST CHARLES EDWARD PETHEL, Chuck Initiative and the necessary quality to carry through anything was a large part of Char- lie's make-up, as evidenced by the basketball team, which he financed and managed outside of school duties. His humor is real humor and his Wit is capital, both in name and spirit. ABRAHAM SOLOMON SILIN, Abe Football 2, 3, 4- Basketball 3, 4- Dramatic Club 3- Natiomil Honor Society. Abe is as remarkable a fellow as you will find anywhere. Central will lose an all around athlete and a brilliant scholar. His dry wit, drawling speech and persistence in argument have enlivened many a class. HUGH BROVVNLOW SPEER, JR., Brownie Football 2, 3, 4- Captain 4- Basketball 2, 3, 4 Class President 4- Glee Club 4- C Club- Hi-Y 2, 3- President 3. He is modest and retiring-yet full of an in- domitable fighting spirit. Take a look at his record of service to old Central. It speaks- nay, shouts for itself. Anything else we might say in his praise would be feeble in compari- son, But we want you to know one of the best all 'round good fellows that our school has ever known. DOROTHY ELIZABETH STEINER, Dot Here she is-that diminuative friend of ours. Dot is calm, quiet, easy-going, to all outward appearances. But those who know her best de- clare that she is full of pep and a loyal friend. 16 ful: .' Z- f lg , Q L I cbs INA TAMMI Moititov' 4. Ina is one of the quieter members of our class-therefore she is not well known by many. Those, however, who do know her acclaim her a true friend. After graduating she is going to enter the business world. KENNETH MERL THAYER, JR., Merl Long live the King! and Merl is truly a king in those qualities which go to make an excellent student and a popular fellow. Endowed with that necessary integrity for the accomplish- ment of an objective, Merl enshrouds his ideas in a cloak of secrecy, waiting for a break. And when the break comes we shan't be surprised, for Merl deserves it all. Air- minded and a future Hagen, GEORGE ASHLEY WHITE Drop thy mask, brave George. Thou art an actor of no mean ability and we wouldst ob- serve thy antics. Thy proposal bids fair to win the heart of any old maid. CHARLES EDWARD WILSON, Charlie Charles is a queer fellow. When we first knew him, girls seemed to be his, Well it could be called his hobby-for he certainly collected them! But after being with him for four years we find the deeper, more serious Charles predominating-a Charles, who reads philos- ophy, and poetry-a Charles who listens with as much pleasure to Schubert, as he does to Paul Whiteman. 17 ChS f -xx ff! f Q xffff .

Paderewski's nearest rival, Pavlowa's closest competitor, this is Floss. She is popular in spite of her intelligence, because she laughs most of the time. Helen of Troy caused the down fall of one man but Floss-Oh, yes! She also has artistic talent. Let her motto be Veni, vidi, vici for everything she undertakes. MARION CELESTINE APPEL APPLES Appel is her name, Many friendships she can claim, Bright and happy, full of fun, Always thinks of everyone. Always smiling, always fair, Is this maid of golden hair. SYLVIA MIRIAM ARO QSYLI Rouge et Noireg Virgil 1, 2. Sylvia is one of those quiet persons with a winning smile, who will win as many friends at Western, as she has here.

Thoroughly reliable in any endeavor he has undertaken while with us at Central, we feel that he is ready to give Success the race of her life when he steps out into the world of busi- ness. Not spectacular but steady. HELEN MAE BRADY ' Girls' Chorus Helen just joined our class in her junior year but due to her amiability and pep she has be- come a friend of all.

She has been well liked by her classmates and will be remembered forever. AGNES CHACONA fAGGIEJ French Club 1, 23 Sewing Clzzb,' Art Club. Behold Central's budding artist! Drawing Flapper Fannies seems to be her weakness and possessing one of her sketches is our weakness. But Wait-have you see Agnes dance? Boy! She certainly can do all tricky new steps. In a few years who knows but that she may be Miss Chacona art teacher at New Central High or better still-one the famous Chacona's Dancing Academy. She will do it-we know and we'll vouch for her. KATHRYN PAULINE CHAUNCEY Little has been heard of this quiet but jolly girl. She is always ready for a good time and always willing to do a good turn for her class- mates. Her aim is to become a successful sten- ographer. May her future career be as bright as her head. Go to it, Kathryn-we know you will make good. MARY ADELAIDE CLAPP !VI01L'itor 45 French Club 43 Virgil Class.

However she is serious at times and studies enough to obtain good marks. A won- derful sport, always ready for a good time or anything that might come her way. ELEANOR FLORENCE CLIFFORD This dark curly haired maiden with the be- witching smile is one of 29's sweetest girls. She is demure, modest and quiet, a girl of whom it can truly be said, To know her is to love her. It would require a long series-of looking glasses to reflect all her sunny smiles. ARTHUR HUGH CLOUGH fAR'1'j Football 2, 3, 4g Track 2, 3, 4. In the higher and nobler sense, a man, in the estimation of the teaching staff, a leaderg and in the minds of the student, Good ol' Art! Never forward, rather bashful at times, Art possesses the inate sense and honor of an old time southern colonel. To the victor belong the spoils-we like Marion too. 24 ,LL 151 ' ' 1.1- : 1 an B-iff SD C f l, -s N gcbsg r-,SH JAMES EDWARD CONDREN fJIM ,, IEJ French Club 2, 3, 45 Virgil Class ,' Secretary of Council 35 Debating 2, 3, 45 National Honor Society.

Beneath his dignified and learned appearance fwhich won the teachers to himj there exists a love of fun and mischief. May you attain as much success in the future as you have at Central.

Hattie's having conference again. Yes, it's with Murph! But nothing serious, for this witty good looking chap was the life of many a gloomy classroom. Three years on the court with the Red and Black, were climaxed by his single handed victory over Academy. The Southern College that gets him will have a versatile athlete and an ardent booster. Lots of luck, Murph! CLEO MARY DUFFIELD College Club: Honor Society, Girl Reserves: Dramatic Clubg French Clubg Vice-Pres. 43 A4071 ifor. The immediate and lasting impression of Cleo is of gracious Cameraderie -and spon- taneous good humor. She is a veritable foun- tain of jollity and gay chatter. And, yet, withal a good listener and learner. She has imprinted her name indelibly in our memories because of her sincerity, vivacity, and sym- pathy. JOHN RYAN DWYER fJOHNNIEl Baseball 3, 45 Football 3, 43 Trig 4. Johnnie is quiet and modest but just men- tion Football or Baseball and Johnnie is there with that smile that will long haunt the halls of Central. Although John was a great athlete he never forsook his classroom and therefore became a member of the National Athletic Association. Good luck in the bread business, Johnnie! MARVIN JOEL EISENBERG fMARVIEl Orchestra: Band. One of the higher lights of our number, Marv is among those few people who are handy at many things and exceptional in all. A lover of the out-of-doors, an enthusiastic and lively helper, he is a faithful and valuable friend. MILTON FREDERICK EISENBERG QMILLIEJ Dramatic Clubg Orchestrag Trig Class. Fun-loving Meel, with his ever-present pipe! That drawl of his always brings a laugh, even in Mr. Anderson's class.

We wish him great success in en- gineering. CLARA CELIA FERRITTA Clara is one of our quiet Seniors, but she is well liked by those who know her. Although we have not heard much from her since she hag been in Central We hope that she will break through her shell of reserve and make a name for herself.

ROBERT FLANAGAN QBOBJ Bob, although he is a Gary Cooper type, doesn't seem to have fallen into the snares of any Lupe Velez, but he is still young and probably will soon follow the path of the many. So here's to you, my boy, and let's hope Life's road holds much happiness and success, as we are sure it will.

Honest T is truly respected in all ways by the faculty and the student body alike. And its more than respect--its a love for the own likable, inimitable way of a bashful young man. An all-scholastic fullback choice for 1928, Tom is more than ready to flash his Central train- ing on a college field. T is the true type of Fighting Colonel-possessing the sportsman's spirit and the Central will to win. ELIZABETH ETHEL HUGHSON fBETHl Chorus 2, 3, 45 Girl Reserves 2, College Club.

Adele is a pleasing combination of attrac- tiveness, intellect and personalityg this together with her golden tresses and an infectious grin has endeared her to us all. Perhaps her only weakness is a tender feeling for the opposite sex-not altogether unrequitted. In spite of this she has made an enviable scholastic repu- tation and we're certain she'll gain success. CONRAD JOHANNESSEN These silent people withhold the true quality of their nature from the world at large. Con- rad seems quiet to those who are only casually acquainted but what that boy knows about Nature! Scouting, Indian lore, birds and trees-those are his hobbies. His most inti- mate friends can vouche that Conrad has the strength and force of character to produce the goods in any emergency. DONALD VICTOR JOHNSON fSWEDEl Football 2, 3, 45 Baseball Who hasn't been won over by our ever smil- ing quarter back's winning manner?

Who doesn't know Harriet? She is one of the most popular girls in the Senior class and full of pep. When her blue eyes and another pair belonging to a certain Sunny are seen sparkling then we know that these two pals are digging up a new and probably mis- chevious plot.

MARY CATHERINE KELLY fKATHl Catherine has a disposition which harmonizes with that of everyone around her. Her high spirits brighten the dullest classroom, and her efiiciency and capability are by-words around the school. While there are graduates of Cen- tral still living in the world Catherine will have a horde of enthusiastic boosters. , ,sf Q .Q K 'Wise' ,Q-' , PS: 'P cbs cbs ANTHONY JOSEPH KOMASSA QRI-:DJ This young man goes his peaceful way from our midst.

WILLIAM EARL KYLE QEARL 'OBOYJ It is an honor to present Earl as a member of our class. Once you penetrate the shell of his reserve you iind beneath a winning nature and an honest, whole-hearted, fellowship. Though he came to us as late as the beginning of the Senior year, he has made himself a King of Hearts among his own and the unfair sex. GRETCHEN ADELE LANGE Dramatic Club 35 College Club: Virgil. Dreamy blue eyes, fair hair with a glint of copper, and a sweet smile are Grtchen's great- est charms.

Truly she is a worth while friend, we believe the lucky one who inspires the dreamy look will agree.

Never absent and never tardy, With these she'll easily win a way. But outside of the school hours She's happy and full of fun. Works as well as she can play, Things seldom found in everyone. FLORENCE AMY SILVERTHORN Chorus 2, 3, 4g Monitor 45 Virgil, French Club 4. Where do we go when we want to know our lessons? Where, but to Florence. She's one of the smartest Seniors we have-and what a pleasing personality! Always ready to help and do her bit. Florence goes to Erie Normal next year. Don't work too hard there, Flor- ence! BETTIE SMART IBETTSI College Clubg Rouge et Noire, Dramatic Clubf Spokesman Board: Girls' Chorus: News Staff, Vice-President College Club. A jump and a bang! Hi ya, Smart! Yes, she is lively, sweet, pretty and natural. No wonder she causes so many heartaches and is so popular. She can be serious. Yes! But why be serious, she asks? She is a ray of welcome sunshine around school and many people will miss her. Betts will succeed in anything she undertakes because she has that certain stick-to-it-ive-ness. MARGUERITE CATHERINE STRONG Chorus 2, 3, 45 Girl Reserves. Here's the iirst of the Strongs-which one? Why, Marguerite! How do we know? By her incessant giggling.

Central will miss his happy countenance and Haming red hair. HELEN FRANCES WESCHLER The tiniest little girl in the whole big class- and the sweetest, most cheerful smile. Thus we think of Helen. She may seem a bit shy and quiet but there's heaps of pep ready to bubble at any moment to give you that happy feeling.

We admire t'Rogie for the spirit of American youth which he expresses. RHEA MARY WILLIAMS Possessing jollity in such a way that its full significance sheds a radiant glow over numerous friends, Maru is voted a true Central repre- sentative with the Central spirit.

Q 5 asia? cbs Junior Class History -ugr'-v- Replete with ability and talent in all lines, the Junior Class will un- doubtedly make its achievements known far and wide as the last class to graduate from memorable Central High. Since they have proved their skill in the past, both at Junior High and since coming to Central, great things are expected and predicted for them next year. This class was first organized while in the eighth grade at Gridley, when Miss Sims had the honor of discovering the talent locked up in this group of boys and girls. To her is given the credit for the training which enabled them to produce evidence of their ability in the form of The Pencil Point, a magazine booklet made up entirely of contributions from this conspicuous class, edited by Henry Riblet, assisted by Jean Holman and Bob Bryan. In the following year Edward Kemble, as President, led the group to social distinction when they staged two successful dances and wound up the year with an outing. Arriving at Central in September, 1927, the class again began pro- ducing candidates for athletics, debating, and dramatics. This year was devoted almost entirely to individual fame, the only group event being a boat ride and swimming party, which concluded the year. Becoming lofty Juniors this year this body of students continued their activity by putting on a dance in the fall which netted surprising results. These young ladies and gentlemen are now eagerly looking forward to the Junior Prom, to be held soon. Following are the officers for the present year: President ......... ......

And with that declaration the February Class of 1931 takes its place among the honored Central groups which have accomplished much for the school and for themselves. The one big event on the social calendar for the year was the Hallowe'en Dance held October 27th at Nancy Diefendorf's cottage. Their only regret seems to lie in the fact that they have but one school to graduate from. The February graduating class of 1931 will be the first to depart from the new Strong Vincent High School holding diplomas of that institution. Carry well the honor! The following officers led the class throughout the past year: President .............................................. Nancy Diefendorf Vice President ..... ...............................

LE cbs Asif' Qchs The Fighting Colonels .innin- A good battle, fought with every clean resource at hand is always marked by victoryg not victory that measures its spoils in the matter of point-getting, but that which in itself teaches a moral lesson. For defeat engenders the will to win, it strengthens the fortitude to withstand adverse circumstances and in the final analysis, creates the love for clean play which is so characteristic of and prevalent in the Ameri- can thought and action. To the statistical-minded, the 1928 record of Central's Fighting Colonels is not an impressive one. But we at Central, admiring the spirit of the Red and Black and hold- ing the highest regard for that spirit, do not feel that the season is so disastrous a one for Central archives. The will to win, a dominant issue in the minds of Red and Black loyalists, was not absent from the minds of those fellows who sacrificed much that their Alma Mater might be fitly represented on the football field. And if their best was not good enough, who can decry it? They fought a noble fight. It is inevitable that Central will once again regain her football laurels so ruth- lessly torn from her brow by a majestic Blue and Gold sweep. We honestly believe that The Fighting Colonels will make uneasy the head that now bears the regal crown of city champs this coming season. One of the finest of men and beloved by everyone at old Central, Coach Jim Hyde, will be sadly missed from the players' bench when Central plays through her '29 schedule. Unceasing in his toil on behalf of Red and Black athletes and possessed of the personality to impart the fighting spirit to every Colonel, Mr. Hyde's loss to the Red and Black's football world will be most keenly felt. To Sam Kramer, who coaches the Colonels this year, we extend our hand in warm friendship, give to him our hopes for a city championship team, a pledge of the neces- sary graduate support and the Central will to win that expects every man to do his duty. Admiration for Brownie Speer's leadership will always be outstanding in our thoughts. Adequate words cannot be found to express our praise for the noble Work of our Fighting Colonels through victory and adversity. Si pugnaverunt, viceruntf' The true extent of Central stamina was shown in the final half of the Academy game. Handicapped by a 24-point lead on the part of the Blue and Gold. Central held Academy on even terms during the final half to give the spectato1's an unparalleled exhibition of grit. 5 The season's record follows: Central Opponents , Sept. 22 0 Kane 20 Sept. 29 12 Conneaut 0 Oct. 6 0 Toledo Scott 33 Oct. 13 12 WVarren 26 Oct. 20 0 Johnstown 13 Oct. 27 0 Youngstown Rayen 24 Nov. 10 O East 20 Nov. 17 6 Sheffield 0 Nov 29 7 Academy 31 It is history that the Colonels failed to beat East and Academy in '28. Their best was not good enough. It will be commanding history when you youngsters defeat East and Academy in future years. May YOUR best be good enough. Don't foul, don't shirk, But hit the line hard.

However, when one considers more closely the calibre of the opposing teams the Red and Black en- countered, a more complimenting and deserving analysis of the season's results is concluded. The spirit with which the players entered the game and the fighting qualities revealed throughout are only traditional with the old school's respected prowess and courage on the gridiron. After a rather mediocre beginning, the eleven gradually worked up to a high peak of football perfection, which was so capably climaxed in that contest with the Academy Lions. Handicapped by not enjoying an extensive summer conditioning period as was the custom in former years, the Fighting Colonels, with the advent of each succeeding game, became a very decidedly improved foot- ball team. After suffering rather unexpected defeats at the hands of supposedly weaker elevens, the Red and Black acquired sufficient football strategy and courage to force such nationally known teams as Toledo Scott High and Youngstown Rayen High to the very limit. Although the record books reveal that the Colonels were successful in only two of the scheduled contests, further scrutiny will bring to light that with a single exception, the total score run up against Central was never of a staggering or striking figure. In both the city series contests the players gave everything they pos- sessed and it was only after a valiant iight in each case that they were forced to admit defeat. Deeper stress should be laid on the ultimate game of the year, the final salute of Central's football season of 1928, the Thanksgiving game with Academy. After behaving like a meek little lamb before an over-powering, de- vastating Lion in the first half, with the renewal of activities in the second portion, a brave, fighting Colonel brigade proceeded to battle the rebellious Lion on equal terms. A strong lead obtained in the early por- tion of the game was all that prevented the Red and Black from holding Academy for the first time in a long expanse of years. With nine lettermen belonging to the undergraduate class, Central should have a powerful and very creditable eleven representing her on the gridiron for the last year of her existence. W.

Having lost live of last year's championship team, Coach James F. Hyde was forced to build a practically new team around Captain Jay Lyons, Welsh and Speer, the remaining letter-men. Then as a further hindrance to his plans, Hyde lost both Welsh and Speer in February. Jim, however, came through in wonderful style by pro- ducing a team which lost only the city and district titles after a play-off game to Academy as a climax to a highly successful season. X Central proceeded to show the scholastic sport world that she was ready to defend her titles when she easily defeated Academy in the Colonel's initial city series game. Then -a short time after this game the Red and Black overwhelmed Warren at the Y court to take over the leadership of her section in the N. W. P. I. A. A. basketball league. 62 ', -N cbs chs As a further exhibition of her ability, the school quintet captured her second city series game from East High on the Warriors own court. Next, within the short expanse of three days, after losing two of their mainstays, plus two valuable and capable substitutes, the Colonels were forced to invade the Lion's den for a third contest in championship conquest. Here, the team was forced to accept her first league defeat after a fiercely fought and unusually rough game. But to prove the old fight was still there, the Red and Black engaged the improved East high Warriors on the Association court. What a game it turned out to be! After only the fastest and most exciting of play did old Central come through! With this contest won, Central had the right to tie Academy for the city and league championship which was to be decided by a play-off battle on East High's Court. A fighting, courageous Colonel team could not withstand the ripping, clawing tactics of a merciless Lion and went down in bitter but far from ignominious defeat by the score 34-24. Another prominent highlight of the season's record was the glory the team won as a result of her successful five day Christmas trip taken throughout Western Pennsylvania and lower New York state. On this occasion the team. defeated Scranton Central, Western Penn- sylvania champs for the last two years. This was the first home game the Scrantonites lost in two successive seasons and Erie Central fame gained considerable prominence around that particular district. The avenging of last year's quintet's defeat at the hands of the Olean, N. Y., five on the Y court by an overwhelming score was another single instance of this year's successful basketball team. ' That the court season was an unusually successful one is largely due to Athletic Director James F. Hyde. His coaching, handling of the players, and all-around basketball insight resulted in the worthy and compliment- ing achievements this year's team performed. With the season now but a memory, Jim is favorably looking for- ward to the coming basketball year. With three lettermen returning as a nucleus and with a wealth of second stringers to rely on, the outlook is a very pleasant one in his eyes. That the Red and Black of old Central shall ride the crest of Glory's wave and that she'll recover her championships in full during the coming year are our hopes for her-and our predictions. 63 s f- Q- A .. cbs cbs U Howard Parsons, Mgr.

The team has proven its mettle in the following contests: May 4-Erie Teachers at Athletic Field. May 11-Westfield at Athletic Field. May 18-N. W. Penna. meet at Bradford. May 25-Franklin at Athletic Field. June 1-Triangular City meet. Youngsville and Buffalo East were also carded for meets with the Red and Black. That Central will forge to the front and eventually overtop a clawing Lion for city track honors is seen by the appearance of a large number of under-classmen, out for this year's team. 66 ,ug gff f, ji -X 5 ,..-ia 3 The Baseball Team 1--'gr Playing a sixteen inning game with Kanty High School to open up the County Baseball League, Central High, although dropping a 6-5 decision to the Polish lads, proved that she would be a leading contender for cham- pionship honors in the circuit. At the start of the season Coach Jim Hyde said, The team is shap- ing up Well and We have an exceptionally strong infield and a steady pitching department. The season's record to date indicates that Jim Hyde was making no idle statement in regard to his Central High School baseball team. If lettermen are of more value than any other medium for the winning of a championship, Central already has the honors in the bag, so to speak. Of fifteen lettermen of last year's squad, Coach Hyde has ten for the team which is looked forward to by all Central students as the greatest in years. With Vic McDonnel pitching a fine game and every member of the team coming through with timely hitting, Central won their second con- test of the year against Albion by a 6-2 score. Girard High School, a member of the league, was also beaten, by a 7-2 count. 67 K c hs asia? chs COACH JAMES F. HYDE -1-wgr James F. Hyde has been a moving force in the lives of Central high students, an influence for the greatest good and a personage who is not just plain coach but Jim to practically every boy and girl in Central High. Jim Hyde relinquishes the athletic reins at Central at the end of the school year and will take over the same post at East high. Central students were shocked by the announcement which takes Jim to the Sunrise school as he was looked upon as somthing indispensible to Central and Central something indispensible to him. It is hardly in our power to say Good-bye, Jim to one of the finest men we know, but we point with pride to the achievements of teams which he has coached. In 1926 Jim took over full charge of Central athletics and since that time pro- duced three football teams and four basketball quintets besides the track and baseball teams. His extraordinary ability along stragetic lines in basketball is shown in the fact that in this time his teams have won two city championships. It is not so much the mere winning of a game that counts, it's what the individual boy gets out of the game. That's Jim Hyde's view, and it's our view too, the only one. To one with noble ideas of which the one above is a part, Jim Hyde will always remain in Central minds as a great man, a good coach. 68 . , K c bs I-1 cbs 0 I I I I I I I I I , I 'I I I LI I I LI Ll ' '-I I l-I SGJIITIIDG 69 ff . fa K .

That the Red and Black swimmers of this year have been upholding the Central colors in aquatic competition is proven by the excellent record made during the past season.

Asked for a resume of the activities of the Girl Reserves throughout the school year, the club secretary, Mary Louise Gray, gave the following: The Rouge et Noir Club of Central High held a meeting at the Y. W. C. A. early in September to elect ofiicers. The following were chosen: President, Cleo Duffield, Vice President, Esther Gosmang Sec- retary, Mary Louise Grayg Treasurer, Marie Smith, Program Chairman, Mary Leonard Weirg Service Chairman, Arabella Fryg Social Chairman, Marilyn Woodburn. At this meeting the club decided to have a boy and girl party, an inter-club social, to meet the members of the other clubs. There were present at this event, the members of the clubs from Central, Academy and East. And we fulfilled our purpose-to get acquainted. Next a bazaar was held at the Y. W. C. A. at which we had charge of the refreshment booth. The bazaar was well attended with crowds from four o'clock in the afternoon until ten o'clock at night. Just before Christmas the club from Central gave a kid party to which everyone brought toys, later to be given to the Home of the Friend- less. The minature conference was perhaps the next event of importance, which we conducted as nearly like the national conference as possible, with a program lasting throughout the entire day. On this occasion the Central club produced a play which was indeed a success. In order to put some money in the treasury, we held an inter-club skating party at the New Market Skating Rink and our finances gain-ed considerably. Early in May we gave a tea to which the faculty and the mothers of the members were invited, as well as the members, themselves. The pro- gram was made intensely interesting with Mr. Paul Cleveland and Mrs. Waldo Dennis contributing many of the numbers. The annual Mothers and Daughters Banquet was held in May. At the banquet awards were given to many of the girls for their steadfast work during the year. Service was not neglected on our program, for the members met often to roll bandages for the Visiting Nurses or to make favors for some needy institution. A We feel that we owe much of our success to the helpful guidance of Miss Postance, our leader, and to Miss Mercer, Miss Wilson and Miss Burger, our faculty advisors. So to them we extend heartiest thanks. Throughout the year we have followed as closely as possible the Four- fold way of living and we feel assured that we have obtained our purpose -to develop mentally, physically, socially and spiritually, as well as to p1'0- mote friendship, democracy and school spirit. -M.

The championship which she has so often gained, came back again to Central this year. With an array of speaking talent such as the city had never seen, or heard before in scholastic circles. the championship triangular debate found Central with UNANIMOUS DECISIONS over East and Academy, the first time any school had gained such a mark of distinction. A great amount of the credit for the victories goes to Mr. Anderson, the debating coach. Mr. F. Sebert Anderson was the man behind the scenes. Without his efficient and kindly help no Central team would have carried off such GREAT victories. Himself a debater of note Cwe know of your record at State College, Andersonj, he has given the results of years of intensive study and preparation into the Central pursuit for city honors in debating. Little is known of the former achievements of Mr. Anderson as he passes cff each little inquiry with I don't like to speak about that. Int his splendid record at Central since he has been with us has shown for itself the great Worth of Mr. Anderson to Central students. Not only in the instruction of debating is he pre-eminent but in all the daily classes which recite to him.

The debating season this year opened with bright prospects, for Coach Anderson had many debaters, each with some experience from which to mould championship teams. As this was the year of the Presi- dential elections the question for the first semester debates was, Re- solved, that the Republican Party should be continued in power. On October 26 we placed our first team on this platform. This debate was with Warren. The negative side of the question was upheld by Colby Mabie, Jane Tritle and Bert Woodburn at Warren and Ellen Walling, C. Merwin and H. Marshall upheld the aflirmative at Erie Normal School. As this debate was a political question there was no decision rendered. On October 30 an affirmative team consisting of Jeanette Albracht, Frances Nagle and Jane Roof debated Cleveland Heights at Central, winning a victory which however was offset by a defeat received on Oc- tober 31 by the Heights School at Cleveland. This team consisted of Annabelle Elfenbein, James Condren and Fred Rose. The second half of the debating season was devoted entirely to the city series contests. Mr. Anderson had fine material to work with for one team had had previous experience in triangular debates. The question Was, Resolved, that the United States should recognize Soviet Russia. The affirmative was upheld by Jane Roof, Helen Marshall and Frances Nagle at Academy. While at Central the negative team, consisting of Bert Woodburn, Ellen Walling and Fred Rose debated East High. Both of these teams Won unanimous decisions therefore making Central the City Champions for the third consecutive year. ,.. . l I 81 -- .l ig 'X E Echsg g f' THQ SPDHESUHD Q51 2' f- R 52,3 .1-4-,X-. -ra -a .

Yea, verily, they are more than that-they are heroes and heroines. For are not these the hardy souls who battled with Caesar, wrangled with Cicero and at last survived to beard old Virgil in his den? This year the Virgil class claims the signal distinction of having the largest enrollment in the history of the class. It was necessary to make room for three separate periods of Aeneid- readers. Miss Mercer's able tutelage during the last three years has re- sulted in the development of an in-creasing appreciation and enjoyment of Latin. Hic est finis. The members of the class are as follows: Florence Alexander Sylvia Oro Esther Baldwin Beatrice Butler James Condren Mabel Delp Ruth Fish Winifred Nagle Polly Nason Marion Nick Lucille Nick Leon Shannon Florence Silverthorn John Mason Jane Patton Jane Roof John Tozer Mary Leonard Weir Marilyn Woodburn Jane Tritle Able Silin Ruth Viau Henrietta Walling Ruth Brown Thelma Cadwallader Thomas Carlin Mary Clapp Jane Cowan Cleo Duffield Elizabeth Hassinger Mary Alice Hayes Adele Illig Harriet Jones William Kay Gretchen Lang Edward Kemble Anna Koppelman Hunter LeSueur Helen Marshall 82 Theo Little Alfreda Locke Linea McDonald Charlotte Merwin Francis Nagle Caroline Newburger Louise Rilling Roberta Seifert Ellen Walling Dorothea Wittmaak Madeline Wolff Jean Arrowsmith Cherie Baehr William Brown Jane Carpenter Selma Cedarman Winifred Evans Arabella Fry Esther Gosman Mary Louise Gray A S, HCDSE QCDSQ 83 i':itZ ' 'X si -f ab Trig Class up-wgr This group met every sixth period in Mr. Hughes' room for the ex- press purpose of becoming expert in the use of the transit Cminor prob- lems not includedj. Due to excessively poor weather conditions the class had no chance to show their knowledge along amateur surveyor lines in the great out-of-doors but did become exceptionally brilliant along argu- mentative lines in the great in-door. It was not only a trig class but a debating society. Members of the impromptu forensic aggregation were usually Durk Braggins, Theodore Zahniser and Milton Eisenberg. Only one difference manifested itself. They Hargumented arguments among themselves instead of with some other group. Even with the three debating among themselves as to what's what in a triangle, we managed to learn something about the aristocratic sines, cosines, and logs. When weather permits, Mr. Hughes will attempt to give us the long-promised work in surveying. 84 r .,f,. , ig , X N- I KE I Sgkifx C E7 S f -' I ' . f. C h S g -,..

Vchs The French Club 'qv--ugr Parlez-vous francais? Oui, Oui! For everyone must speak French, at least understandingly, in order to be a member of the French Club. The meetings this year have been conducted as much as possible without the use of our Mother tongue. Several French playlets and dialogues have been presented before the club. At one of the early meetings, Miss Schabacker gave an interesting account of her trip abroad. Later in the year, Miss Roberta Allen told about her experiences as une etudiante de Paris.

The Central chapter is the first and only one in Erie.

Candy was sold under the supervision of Cleo Dufiield, to earn part of the money. As Central has the only high school College Club this year we en- tertained the members at a Kid Party which was successfully planned by Virginia Renz, Betty Smart, Robena Harper, Jean Sones and Rosalie Haisman.

A surprise in that such a thing was un- thought of before the 1929 year came into being and a pleasure for the excellent renditions of classical and popular airs which they gave. Miss H. M. Schabacker has materially aid-ed the Glee Club to attain their present excellent standing among school organizations. Always interested in anything pertaining to vocal art, Miss Schabacker gave generously of her time land enthusiasml and the members were unani- mous in the opinion that she should share a large part of the deserved honor which they have received. The Glee Club appeared in several successful concerts during the past year and sponsored one Roller Skating Party. The Christmas Pro- gram in the Auditorium in which three numbers were rendered marked the baptism of the Glee Men into the land of musical successes. They were greeted with overwhelming enthusiasm on the occasion of the Febru- ary Commencement Exercises, When, under the direction of Fred Buss, student director, they rose to great heights in the singing of old-time favorite selections. The Club is planning a continuance of the organization during the coming school year which opens in September. We sincerely hope that all plans go through to a successful completion as no school can be Without the services of a Boys Glee Club. l 90
