'Too soon the day Has overtaken us. 'Yet ere farewell For just a moment more we'd stay and tell Again the happy hours spent, the glee Of competition fair, of victory In some athletic game with others played, Displaying skillful prowess, courage staid. Once more th' endearing friendships jine and true We all in this last moment would renew. Friendships which now are only four years old, Tet that much more intense, of stronger hold. Four years? O Time, Thou art indeed so fast, No sooner is the Present, than 'tis Past. It seems not long ago we took our stand By Caesar's side in ancient Gallic land. To us the statesman Cicero declaimed And all the Catilinian vices named. We learned to love the word of seer and sage. V-:al 14 Ib-- We saw proud Ilium fall, Achilles rage. The mysteries of science welve explored, Groping, yet always straining, reaching toward The Truth. The end for which we poor men strive The hope that tends to keep the world alive. And thro' these past four years has that not been Our primary aim? Harlq! Now I hear the din Of voices new. For others now come here And we must go. Each our own course to steer. Each toward his goal. And may we not forget Along the wayiwhatever goal we set- To always toward the right and just attain And hold that far above material gain. For he who e'er to lofty Truth aspires- To him will come the things he most desires. --:JI 15 Ire-- Ji , Ts, ? Z 51- 4 23 S 5 1. E . E Z Q A 1 vw W f. 1 x 'I . I . P ,, , Hi, aa QQJV-14251 in 4 ff .

Many aspir- ing young kicking demonstrators of the class landed berths on the team. When the last review of the rolls in our H term rolled around we awoke to the startling realization that it re- quired study concentration and good sportsmanship to be recipients of one of those much desired Barnwell Honor Badges. Returning in our G term we found chaos. The old grade system was abol- ished for something ultra-modern known as promotion by subject. To go with the new system there came the horrors of the Study Hall and the Welfare Com- mittee, more popularly known as the Farewe11Committee. Dr. A. Kap- lan was appointed to replace Uncle Ioe and his Social Register as the august keeper and scribe of the famous Sacred Blue Book wherein were re- corded merits, pro and mostly con. The auditorium was given a more stately air by the installation of ampli- fiers and a complete radio and phono- graph system. The year 1950 proved a stellar sports year. Bert Barron s indefatigable foot- ball squad brought a revision of the preceding year s record. The team went through an undefeated season and was tied only by Frankford and West Phila- delphia High Schools. ln the traditional fracas with Northeast we came out of the fray with a 6-0 victory. The team gained city-wide fame. Then the bronzed-skin fleet-footed chaps as the cross-country team brought home the bacon in the form of a city championship. The first member of the class to gain distinction was Mr. loseph Thompson, who was awarded the Freshman Scholar- ship Prize. With our first year near completion, we looked forward to our sophomore year, and revenge on the incoming class. OF SOPHISMS AND FALLACIES Lord! Whaffoolm flzeme molfalf bel -Shakeapeare.

It was at this time that the new Olney High School opened its doors and claimed some of our professors.

New light- ing fixtures and the removal of lockers from the first floor gave the old institu- tion a new appearance. Truly, history repeats itself. The grid- iron lads annexed their third consecu- tive Championship and twenty-ninth straight win. This year the greatest rivalry was offered by Simon Gratz. In a hard-fought battle which ended in a 12-6 win, we gained the championship of the Public High League. But that was not enough for Bert Baron's Bad Boys, so they went and beat West Cath- olic, champs of the Catholic league, and copped a mythical City Championship. Inspired by the gridiron successes the Mermen on the Swimming team splashed to a Championship. Of note was the development of Iohnny Macionis, recog- nized as one of the best High School Swimmers in the swimming world. This year, after 15 years, the basket- ballers dribbled through an undefeated season to a championship. Then Coach Vickers' bronzed fleet- winged harriers brought a revival of last year's victory. Once started by the major sports, the minor teams took up the spirit and brought glory to their Alma Mater. For the first time in Central's history we received the Andrew Morrison Tro- phy, emblematic of the highest number of points for athletics. The members of the class were not idle. Most of us entered the various internal phases of school life. And so we brought to a close our carefree days and awaited the organization of our class in the Iunior year.

THE Iunior year found the class shrinking in quantity but gaining in the quality of our knowledge. Failure in studies and domestic difficulties con- tributed to this shrinkage in volume. But now in our third year we buckled down to class business. VVe started out right with the election of the immensely popular Professor Disharoon to serve as our class adviser. Immediately after- ward we held elections for class officers for the first year of our organized exis- tence. Those elected were: Pmridenl. .........,....... PAUL BATT Vice-Pre.n'den f. .....

The class was now functioning prop- erly. The ring committee began taking orders. Treasurer Steiner appointed Book treasurers and dues began coming in. The Class paper, the D-Scribe, made its appearance and kept us in the know with the class news. Tragedy made an untimely appear- ance and struck a hard blow in the passing of popular Professor Lloyd Knoll, pioneer in radio experiments at Central. The Class saw victory with the tradi- tional Annual Iunior Day held at Hous- V-al 20 In-V ton Field. We defeated the haughty C-men, members of the 160th Class, by a score of 92-42. Our class completed the day by winning a thrilling baseball game by a ll-10 win. Great credit must be given to the Chairman of the Iunior Day Events, Hyman Leabman. At this time Abraham Ulin showed his master craftsmanship of the English language by winning the Albert H. Smythe Literature Prize. The A-B-C Prom proved a big affair for the class and received a large turn- out. All the girl friends were exhibited at the Elks' crystal ballroom to the strains of A1 Ochman's Orchestra. K. Amidst our work one day, came the sad news of the death of Professor Hagy, beloved instructor of the Physics De- partment. Of his passing we can say: Time .rlzall noi dim, our memory of him. With the Christmas holidays over, the first year of our organization terminated, and we began looking into the futureg our budding politicians had already started campaigns for the Senior Elec- tions. Future chiefs of the school pe- riodicals and other organizations were receiving promotions. And so we awaited our senior year with great expectancy and a strong desire to make good.

Harry Fleishman received the ap- pointment as Editor-in-Chief of the RECORD BOOK and immediately began the difficult task of its production. Hyman Leabman, the only remaining football varsity man for the new season, was elected captain. The team boasted a large number of our classmates and produced a fighting bunch of lads.

Iules Steiner, the famous lawyer, and Coan Iawford an- nounced their intention of becoming man and wife soon. A formal announcement was made today by the University of Pennsylvania board of directors, stating that Dr. William Disharoon was to be the new Dean of the University. Dr. Disl'1aroon's brilliant work in the past ten years has been before the public's eye constantly and the appointment was not considered a great surprise. Charles Allen was appointed to the Supreme Court today, a position well deserved by this honest, upstanding judge. ln the sport world today, thirty thousand spec- tators saw Len Steinig take a hard fought tennis match from t'Speed Marder to become the National Tournament Cham- pion. The Athletics staged their opening game against the New York Yankees and won to the tune of 2 to 0. Lefty Nax pitched for the White Elephants, and allowed only two hits.

It is a pleasure to be with you in another of our evening legislation sessions. Last week I announced the great contest which was to be started but for those that were not with us last week I will explain the contest again. If you have in mind a law which you believe should be enacted sit down write it out in twenty words-no more no less-and mail to the station to which you all are listening. A committee of ten, which I have chosen, composed of prominent members of our nation, namely, Fletcher, Weingrad, Freedman, Levin, Shamberg, Mai-der, Ferrigno, Tropea, Effres and Margoles, will select the winning law. The prize, as formerly announced, is a three-day trip to the nation's capital, all expenses paid, or one year's relief from income tax payment. You take your choice. In case of ties, duplicate prizes will be awarded. Now to an- nounce the winner. Mrs. Sutow, the wife of the owner of the greatest banking house in Philadel- phia, is the lucky la-citizen. Congratu- lations, Mrs. Sutow. The law proposed which is to be enacted immediately reads as follows: wig ...W- Friday at midnight is the dead line. Good night my friends.

Navigator Henry is famous for his non-stop flight around the world. Lenart has braved the unknown and visited the highest altitudes ever attained by aircraft. Mar- tin and Morris are known for having single-handed stopped a beginning revo- lution in the newly discovered land of Vraimapoulas, which was only recently placed on the map by it being discovered some few years ago. Richardson is one of the greatest stunt flyers alive today, while Williams boasts of having been in more smash-ups than anyone else, and yet lives to tell the tale. Winefry, his flying partner, doesn't boast about it but is thankful he's alive. I suppose I ought to tell you about the marvelous radio equipment used in our planes. The special Allen cabin makes them the most beautiful sets in the country. The hook- up has been perfected by Subranni and Donahue, while the Epple radio tube is responsible for the clarity with which these sets play. The boys behind the scenes, so to speak, who automatically flash the programs to our sets in our planes in various parts of the country, are none others than Oronzi and Young. And so, ladies and gentlemen, it must be plain that with men such as these our company cannot help but flourish. It is your well-founded confidence in us that has enabled us to make this stick forward in transportation. Thank youl BEIZER: Thank you, Harry, it was a pleasure, indeed, to hear from you and while on the subject of transportation, it is just and fitting that we switch you to the Snyder Escalator Company fthe Feet of the Worldj. Cweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel FLEISHMAN: Hello, radio land, this is Flashy Flash of the Feet of the World Escalator Company. Who would have thought that a lazy man's dream should ever become the greatest step forward in motion on land. Think of it, ladies and gentlemen, whenever you step out oj the house and pack yourself on the mov- ing escalators, now replacing the old- fashioned pavements, you are doing what a school boy named Cook had dreamt of some twenty years ago. It took the ingenious Akawalos and Alex- ander to make this a working scheme. The financial wizards, Armor, Bassman, and Dubin, floated the stock issue that brought together the tremendous sum of money necessary for this project. The firm of Butowsky and Budow completed the job in great style. Think of it, folks, all of this because a lazy man dared to dream. Berman and Berman, the effi- ciency experts, have shown that this has been the greatest step forward in the history of transportation. Blanck, the great statistics expert, in his endeavors to enumerate the number of people who walk, is developing acute eye strain. QFor you know we are the feet of the world and nobody walks.D Back in the executive office one sees several men, re- cently involved in the great stock scan- dal of 1951. It was charged that the Messrs. Block and Bolden were making close to S500,000 a year, and it took the great law offices of Brown and Buccella to clear them. It probably was lucky that Iudge Canaris, a former schoolmate, conducted the trial. However, as a re- sult of this investigation their income is now limited to a mere 5I5100,000 in a fashion as yet unexplainable. Mr. Cray- der, the city district attorney, was re- cently made a member of the firm, so the public need not expect another inquiry for a while. Professor Solovay, the great economist, believes that men in these high positions are entitled to the tremendous salaries their genius com- mands. And so, radio audience, we can- only quote the words of that great poet Solow, in saying, Don't worry, every- thing will be all right. As the great wit Spigelman once said, lf we ever stop, we'll put the world back on their feet again. So with this parting shot, l 4-41 102 rp.- warn you people to behave because the feet of the world can stop all motion in twelve minutes. Good-night, my friends, and don't forget to be good little citizens. BEIZER: Holy smokes, what a guy, but they say, All's well that ends well, especially when he finishes. Let us again quote those memorable words, Every- thing will be all right. At this time the Stein Chemical Company wants to re- mind you that today, just twenty years ago, 'tyour best friend won't tell you. But, who cares, your best friend don't have to tell youl The new Thomason and Thompson method now enables you to send frozen specimens of your breath to their laboratories. Their expert staff of chemists, Professors Swope, Nor- witz, Ocharski, Tranauskas, and Trexler, never miss. All answers will be kept strictly confidential. Address all samples to the Stein Chemical Company in the Varani Building, New York, N. Y. CFla.rhj Ambassador Weiner has just returned from his trip abroad and claims that Weller and Wilson, the men who broke the Wall Street stock exchange, have just succeeded in breaking England's ex- change and the country is in ruin. One well recalls the sigh of relief that the United States brokers heaved when they left the country. But Ambassador Weiner says they'll soon be back again. The Ambassador's traveling companions, the brain trust of the east, consisted of Professor Yonkowitz, Major Zawojski, General Zelinger, Admiral Zelt, Prince Zeplinsky fthe man who married the richest princess in Europej, Professor Ziring and the world wizard, Zlotnikow. Associated Press reporters, Weiss and Langston, state this is the most distin- guished group of men ever to leave the country at one time. What-you didn't know they had gone? Tsk, tsk. Now radio fans, hold your seats, l am about to introduce the voice that every- one dreads, The Phantom Voice of the Air. Who is he is nobody's business. Some believe him to be Len Miller, others, that he is Metter, and still others, McGlaston. But as has been said, no one knows, not even that great detective, Manieri. Malkin, the great investigator, admits he doesn't know who he is, while Malin, another great investigator, is sure Malkin doesn't know who he is. In fact he says Needleman doesn't know who he is either. So, it's plain that nobody knows who he is. On the other hand, the Phantom knows everything. Some- times if you're keen enough you can see his golden plane swishing through the clouds, or if you're standing in the hall- way with your best girl and you feel something whiz by, remember, it might be the phantom. Of course it might not, but then again it might. Are you anx- ious to know what the Phantom has learned this week. If so, grab hold of your chair and get yourself some lung Smelling Salts, you might need them. Here goes. Bah B-r-r-r-r-r and G-r-r-r-r-rl This is the Phantom speaking. Here's the latest news hot off the griddle. Drs. Kane and Kanefsky have invented a new way of escaping troubles on earth, they say, all you have to do is cut off your neck close to your shoulders. Drs. Lempert and Brussell agree with them, but claim that the job is messy. The law firm of Katz and Kaufman have recently opened their offices on the seventieth floor of the new Kattleman Building. A feature of their new offices is the Kasanow door, which opens on to the outside of the building and allows the disappointed clients a nice seventy- story drop to the ground. Lawyer Kin- sky of the firm of Kinsky, Kershner, and Kosmorsky is pressing suit against Kasa- now, claiming that Kasanow promised to install the first door in his oflices. Lank- ford says he doesn't think the door is a good idea, someone's liable to get hurt. z. ' .ii 225' Aa . gig: 9 2 1 ,cv - MI' 1 moi 'g W Y ,x i .-,.., iii? , my i.-Pf me i gg-W ii 1 I 1 , lt.

Frank De Dominicus the great opera singer and recent star of the opera by De Mario has achieved another great success in the operetta by Glasser now creating a sensation on Broadway. Professors Fein and Stern have just emerged from the seclusion of their month of study and claim they not only understand the fourth dimension but also the fifth sixth and seventh. What they intend to do with this no one knows and no one cares even L. Gold- man doesn t care. Weep fair maids! Elwood Friedman the screen s torrid lover claims that American women are beautiful in a way. Further questioning by Gordon revealed the way. Dr. Gray has devised a method whereby one can live a hundred and twenty years. Dr Grubman has inves- tigated Gray's work and decided he had rather die at fifty and have a little fun. Professor Dolhancryk has just discov- ered why sponges breathe. But no one seems interested because we still use them to wash our backs. Herman and Sklar, the great fight promoters, have developed a new form of contest. This contest is to take place between Ialacci and Iameson, the great exponents of auto suggestion. They are to sit oppo- site each other and glare at their opponent furiously. What a thrill it will be when the weaker mind totters. L. Seidenberg, the world's greatest clothing manufacturer, has astonished everyone by joining a nudist colony.

Detective Schwartz had asked this great medium to locate the kidnapped financier 'Mr. Silverman. Shore went into a trance and his lips began to murmur incoherent words. Suddenly he spoke: Perlin is at home with his family. Perlstein is trav- eling in Europe. Perlman is buying a new fur coat for a chorus girl. Rechter is with Silverman and what s more so is Prezensky -but ah my friend you wish to know where Silverman is. Well to tell you the truth so would I he owes me fifty bucks. A new school of thought has been created. Its authors are Paris Perri and Picucci. They are attempting to teach the world that they would be better off without . . . BEIZER: Hold everything!

After amassing three football championships, one basketball title, one swimming title, nine cross- country championships ftwo first team, two jayvees, and five freshman titlesb, one track and field championship, and one tennis title in the four years 1929, 1950, 1951, 1952g there was a decided drop in 1955, probably due to the graduation of a large number of two- and three-letter men. The baseball team which had not been able to garner one title in the four-year stretch of championships, once more encountered a disastrous season in'55, the only bright light being a mid-season defeat meted out to the league champions, namely, Southern High. Although the pitching staff, composed of Tenaglia, Nax, and W. Wilson did at times hurl winning ball, it was usually on the same day on which the Sluggers were able to collect but a few meagre bingles. The team eventually finished in fourth place in the league standings. The Track and Field team once more came through and won another cham- pionship for our Alma Mater. Led by that brilliant flash of ebony lightning Howie Iones, the team won both the Public High and Class Championships. The squad was defeated but once, which was administered by West Philly to the tune of 61M points to 60M points, and was the Hrst triangular meet in which our boys were de- feated in three years. A margin of 55M points over the next nearest score was sufficient to win the Class Championships sponsored by Northeast. The actual score was Central 158Mg Northeast, 104, Overbrook, 76y2g Southern, 65Mg while Gratz, Germantown, West Philly, Olney, and Frankford followed in the same order. Iones held the spotlight in this meet as he scored 19M points. When the champions or Quads came along, the entire squad was in perfect physical condition, guided by Coach Gentile, the final score reading Central, 42 points, West Philly, 57 points, Gratz, 22M points, Southern, 19 points, North- east, 18 points 5 while Germantown, Overbrook, Roxborough, Olney, and Frankford followed in that respective order. Although West Philly had qualified 15 men to our 11, the Mirrors brought home the bacon. Iones this time set a new Quad record by winning four individual events. By clearing ten feet nine inches in the pole vault 3 five feet, nine inches in the high jump 5 running the low hurdles in 25.6, and the high hurdles in 16.2, this flash set a new record which bids to stand for some time. Due credit must be given to the other members of the team answering to the names of Searles, E. Williams, E. Goss, and S. Levine, who played no mean part in the admirable record which this team has achieved. , 44:41 114 Ib'- Turning to Tennis, we find another championship combination. Vanquishing rival after rival, the racquet-men succeeded in adding a trophy into the Barnwell Trophy case for the 1952 Championship. Prof. Nassau, mathematics instructor, piloted the 1955 congregation through a tough season, finally winding up in third place. Bellis, Goldstein CCaptainD, Levitsky, Margolin, and Steinig were the singles men, while N. Marder and Chavenson handled the doubles assignment. By placing only third the team lost the Barnwell Tennis trophy which was awarded to West Philadelphia High School. Captained by Hymie Leabman the football warriors' slate reads 5 won, 4 g lost, 5 3 tied, 2 3 not a bad record for a team which depended entirely on the preced- ing year's second squad for material. The gridders started the season by holding a strong St. Ioe aggregation to a scoreless tie by virtue of a stonewall forward line. A blocked kick by Clements as well as a safety were a sufficient margin to win the Overbrook game. Frankford was completely outplayed by our boys, only to win by virtue of a break, Another stalemate was played, this time with Southern. A strong forward wall made up of Weingrad, Belfiore, Leabman, Hutkin, and Clem- ents assured us a tie by holding Southern on the one-yard line. Catholic High, an outside opponent, was on the short end of a 6-0 score at the end of the game. A 200-pound parcel of goods, namely, George Coleburn, took a 60-yard jaunt down the gridiron in the fourth period to place another game in the win column. West Philly then beat us in the same manner as she did in '52, a field goal, a touchdown, a converted point and a safety accounted for 12 points which duplicated last year's score. A determined and aroused Central Team then held a championship Gratz combination for 44 minutes of a hard-fought tussle, only to lose by a six pointer which was scored on an intercepted pass. This game was marked by the brilliant punting of Reds Reno, and by the great defense play of the entire backfield of Calley, Reno, Lisovitch, Silverstein, Coleburn, and Karlin. As the daily press put it, Al1 Gratz could offer was a punt, a pass, and a prayer -luckily the prayer was heard. A brilliant victory over our day-before-turkey-day opponents, Northeast, marked the season a success. A lateral pass by Calley to Reno on the return of a punt, plus Calley's educated toe accounted for our first seven pointers in the second period. After Northeast evened the score in the third period Big Gawgu Coleburn sliced off-tackle for 40 yards, said score being the margin of victory. The stellar performances and hard work of the first squad in the persons of Batt, Pertnoy, and Kravert, at ends, Hutkin, Struther, and Mongelli, at tackle, Weingrad and Belfior at guards. Leabman and Clements at the pivot position, and the backfield of Kar- lin and Silver at quarter, Silverstein, Lisovitch, Coleburn, and Reno, at the halfsg and Calley at full, deserve much more credit than is given them here. Corky Searles led his squad to their third Cross-Country title in a row. For the third consecutive year the harriers won the title and also chalked up a perfect score in a dual meet with Germantown. Corky Searles breasted the tape first, followed by E. Hall, E. Williams, E. Goss, W. Burgett, R. Williams, C. Wilson, F. Mitchell, M. Smith, and W. Karazhewicz receiving a score of 56 points or a perfect score. The championship race was held at Northeast Field. Praise should be heaped upon Emanuel Goss who ran the entire race with only one shoe, but even with this handicap he eventually placed. Coach Vickers and Manager Varani then decided to win the LaSalle Invitation Run, and entered a team. The score: Central, 75, Northeast Catholic, 773 Upper Darby, 855 Lansford High, 101. The jayvees also won a. championship and were led to the tape by W'alter Karazhewicz. The -al 115 rp.- x -fx. 4 i .1-4. 1.. .- -Q hvf' pf ,k .N EE K N . fi? 1.5 . . .. Q .4 -1 ,, .

Start a new streak next year, froshll A fair soccer team co-captained by Bueby Silverman and Fran Megrail met up with a fair season and finally landed in a tie for 6th place. The brilliant play of G. Weinstein, Silverman, Megrail, Sklar, and Kattleman was outstanding. Quite a few games were lost by tough breaks ' especially the Olney game. When blinded by the snow, Goalie Himmelstein allowed the ball to slip through his hands. The final score was 1-O. Under the able leadership of Captain Iohn Macionis the Central High Tankmen came through the 1952-55 season undefeated, and finally copped the state cham- pionship. ln their run of undefeated meets, individual records were set and broken by the members of the squad namely, Bud Wilson, of the 161st Class, and Bob Hack. Bud set the breast stroke record with an 1.18115 mark, only to have it broken by Bob Hack, at 1.16 flat. As a whole, the Crimson and Gold mermen have achieved three consecutive Public High Conference Titles, climaxed by a State championship which followed in our third year at Central. Others of our class awarded letters for Htank splashing were Akavage, Morrow, and Rechter. The Central High gymnasts had but one year of existence when the league dis- banded, and the team was forced to break up. The fellows representing our class at the time of its disbandment were Syd Shupak, Ettore Maniere, and Geo Sekula. Ioseph Ferringo held the 115-pound scholastic title for wrestling while wrest- ling was permitted among the public high schools of Philadelphia. Because of in- juries suffered by the contestants in that sport it was unfavorably looked upon and finally prohibited. As the history of the l6lst class comes to a close, a number of outstanding athletes also close their inter-high school athletic careers. Truly the class has played no small part in the athletic history of the Central High School. No less than twenty-six men graduated who have won at least one first team letter, while a multitude of second team members trace citizenship to this noble class. Let's not forget those fellows who went out for the teams but were not good enough to gain varsity berths, for they really made the teams. ln closing we can proudly say: Our boya' have been equifable in viclory, and game in defeai.
