.X til NG leave of Chief NYakitan, the warriors, graduates of 1937, are pre- pared to battle with the issues of life after three most ad- vantageous years at Central. ltegret.t'u1 that they must part aint begin to blaze their own trails, this tribe of Indians has a mutual feeling of pride toward the ad- ministrating chieftains. This class has attained a high ranking and a most admir- able record, not easily to be forgotten. Miss Lucille Marechal and Miss Josephine Hennasy were chosen as spon- sors. and under their efficient guidance this group ol' students achieved many honors. During the Sopholnore year the fol- lowing officers were elected: President, Carl Goss, Vice-President, Nancy Seitzg Secretary, Foster Means, Treasurer, Bryce Harris. That year a most successful side show, t'Betty Boop, was presented l'or the animal Capers. There were also many participants in the main show from this class. The Sophomore Tea was given in October in the school library for the parents. Two members received high hon- ors in the coronation ofthe Football Queen. Miss Mary Martin was Maid of Honor, aint Miss Janis Halliday. an attendant. Having completed the first year so successfully, the class started confidently into the junior year, electing these students to office: Robert. DeBord, Presidentg Rich- ard Hance, Vice-President, Billy Hillyard, Secretary, and Bryce Harris, Treasurer. The class was proud to say that one of its prominent members. Miss Emily Harpster, became the Football Queen, and another member, Miss Lucille Blanar, was an at- Ohcicers Senior Class Top Row-left to right: President, Hartmann Goetz.

Be- sides these untiring efforts to make their class outstanding, they were well-reprc- sented in the National Honor Society. ln the fall of 1936 these bold war- riors became full-fledged upper classmen. Among their entertaining festivities were the Capers side show, t'XYhy Carry Your Lunch?'i and the Senior Vtteek play, The Show Up? A popular musical program was featured as a part. of the activities of the week. True Davis and his orchestra were greeted enthusiastically. The high- est honor in the Football Queen contest was won by one ot' its most popular mem- bers, Miss Virginia Gard. Others partici- pating in the contest were: Miss Dorothy Hosenthal, Maid of Honor, and Florence Hochman, Bettie Vi-ieddle, Carol Abercrom- bie and Elaine Mahan, attendants. To carry them through the last phase of school life, the class chose as officers: Hartmann Goetze, President, Billy Hillyard, Vice- Presidentg Virginia Gard, Secretary, Don- ald McMachen, Treasurer. The exception- al Seniors were selected for membership in various organizations as the Honorary Literary Society, Quill and Scroll, the Na- tional Honor Society, the Honorary French Club, and Brush and Pencil Club. In recog- nition of the services rendered them, the Class of '37 presented two plaques to Cen- tral which were placed in t.he school li- brary. Baccalaureate was held May 23, and Commencement Day, May 26. This brought these brave warriors to their destination after a long trail through these propitious XCR PS. Page Seventeen
