IIIIIIIIIIIwIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII SENIOR CLASS WILL Being fully aware of the fact that we have enough creases in our brains to. start us out into the greater things of life, we, the class of '31, have decided to will our surplus property to some of the lower class members who will need plenty of aid before they leave C. H. S. To the Juniors we leave our hope that their class might grow larger. To the Soph we leave our good behavior knowing that it is greatly needed. To the freshies we leave our great and noble power of concentration. Lloyd V. Fry leaves his date getting ability to Eldon Kesselring. Lloyd Bender leaves his magnetism for the freshmen and sophomore girls to Harold Reber. Leoan Leibe leaves her sober expression to Hilda Hukill. Leona +Swartzendruber leaves her merry outbursts of laughter to Donald Beard, hoping he will make frequent use of them. Frederick Beard leaves his curly, wavy hair as a pattern to the oncoming shieks. Emily Slaubaugh leaves her superior mental ability to Thelma Gingerich, hoping she will make good use of it in the future. Victor Hess wills his ability to behave himself no matter what the case may be, to Ellen Beard. Clifton Gingerich leaves his basketball suit to Lester Reber to fill out. Paul Beard wills his studious spirit to Ruth Amelon. Charles Semler bequeaths his everlasting athletic optimism to oncoming athletes. Martha Swartzendruber after much debating wills her quiet disposition to Lois McKray. Witnesses: Wheely, Whoosler. 926 Will Rogers, Notary. A GLANCE INTO THE FUTURE I One evening while I was sitting on the porch in Honolulu, Hawaii, my mind drifted back to the States. I had given one of my programs over the air and was wondering if any of my classmates in the class of '31 had heard my program. While I was in a reverie the doorbell rang and a messenger boy told me that Leoan Liebe called and said she would see me tomorrow. She had heard my music and singing and thought it was splendid. She was having a vacation from her duties as secretary to the president of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. She brought a 1950 vCenterika with her. Of course I was anxious to see it, lbut was especially interested in the alumni section. I wanted to see what my former classmates were doing. This is what I read: Martha :Swartzendruber has settled down with a prosperous Iowa farmer, who is now the originator of the Wingless Leghorn so that she can raise a garden without the Leghorn's aid. Emily Slaubaugh is at the present time at the head of the English Depart- ment of Center High School and is arranging a new form of dictionary. We under- stand that there are about one hundred pupils in attendance there. A gym has been built, also an enlargement to the school house. Dr. Paul W. Beard, who has just completed his course in medicine, is serv- ing his interneship in a large hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. , 'iExtra! Extra! Big circus coming to town. Victor Otto Eugene Hess is the Celebrated Clown. We will remember that he always was a clown when he went to Center High. Lloyd Fry has accepted th-e position of basketball coach at a well known Western University. This is only natural, of course, because of his clean sportsman- ship and his wonderful ability that he exhibited while at Center High School. Lloyd Bend-er and Frederick Beard, co-partners in General Motors-, Inc., have just designed a new kind of automobile that is three feet high and thirty feet long. It travels at the rate of a hundred miles an hour in second and two hundred and fifty in first. Good old Physics Book. Noted Flyer has fl-own across the United S-tates in three hours. This flyer is Charles E. Semler. Clifton Gingerich has perfected a new reducing chemical which is sweeping the country by storm. He himself will take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to lower his weight from 443 pounds to a level where he can hold his heavyweight championship title of the world in boxing. He started his career at Center High School. L. L. and L. S. '31.

The shy freshman class consisted of six girls and seven It gl: boys. Later Margaret Ihrig joined us for a short while. In December we assisted Ig QI the Spphompres in gixgng afplay entitled, Waiting for the Trolley. During that Ig ,I term our o our mem' ers e t us and we ended the school year numbering only ten. I6 I IU 3: After vacation we entered school cheerfully, greeting our new instructors, Mr. :Q 3: and Mrs. Shalla and Miss Brenne-man. We were disappointed to see only eight of lg U: our .members return, namely, Ruth Amelon, Mena Gingerich, Velma Swartzendruber, ICE Q: Nadine Bontrager, Eldon Kesselring, Harold Reber, Ward Miller, and Darlene Fry. I3 I Thelma Guenigerich joined us after two months of school had passed. In the Declama- IQ I tory work in which we all took part, Thelma received first place in the Dramatic IQ ' section here at Center and at the County Contest at Iowa City. At the end of the Ig first semester, Ward Miller moved to Wellman where he joined the Sophomore class. :g : Our class elected the following officers, President-Darlene Fryg Vice-President- :. ,: Nadine Bontragerg Secretary-Treasurer-Velma Swartzendruber. In March, with the D: aid of the Freshman class, we gave a play named Miss Patricia. D. D. F. '33. DI 'Q5 D: Aw :ef Q: : 12 TURKEY MEAT Eg I I5 One evening one of the men of the troop came in late.
