Exoerptscirom a Private Diary of the Senior Class 1937-1938 September 13-We didn't thoroughly wake up this morning until we were but definitely in the clutches of deah ol' Central. And didn't we all make some pretty nifty resolutions-but then, why go into that! September 20-The W. P. A. offered to protect the lives of Central students by directing traffic with fish-poles and flags. Nice work-if you can get it! September Z4-The Dragons sent the grid- iron season off with a bang by defeating the Bluffton Pirates 13-7. This night game was played in our brand new stadium. Some of us were brave enough to try out for cheerleader. September 29-Our annual tag day-we're sending the band to Bryan this year to help them dedicate their new stadium. September 30-Nope, we didn't don formals and tuxes, but we sure did go to an honest-to- gosh opera, The Prodigal Son , by De Bussey. The Chamber Opera Company was certainly appreciated by Centralstudents. And wasn't that soprano a good looker! Quit pushin', fellas, I was here first! October l-Don't look now, but wasn't that the Bryan 'team that gave us a beating to the tune of 14-0? October 7-Miss Howey rnust have thought it was her speech when everyone walked, not ran, out of the auditorium during assembly. But it was only a fire drill. October 7-Myrtle Ross, monodramatist, entertained us tonight with some dramatic skits. October 8-Smoly Hokes! This was as hard a knock as we ever care to have-defeat at the hands of Bowling Green, 38-7. We have noth- ing more to say! October 12-Tea, mints, cookies, and lots of fun-that was the Blue Triangle Tea. October 15-Defiance tripped us up just so nicely with an l8-14 score. That evening the Hi-Y entertained the fairer sex with a steak roast. October 21--Mr. Bronsen De Cou told us about Ireland. Sure, an' it must be a bit o' heaven! October 22--Ouchl Again the Dragons suf- fer punishment, this time administered by Day- ton Kiser by a 13-O talley. The band improves constantly. Nice going, Peg, John, and Bob! October 26-Report cards-and so soon! Guess we'll be staying home more on school nights. O well, 'twas fun while it lasted! sixteen

October 29-We students tripped the light fantastic tonight at the dance sponsored by the Student Council. Many budding romances were given a boost by this event. November 1-Is this getting to be a habit? The Toledo Libbey Cowboys trounced us 28-7. But Central does have good sportsmanship- and that's plenty! November 2-Maybe I'll learn to never, never go to fortune tellers. Mr. Howard Hig- gins let us in on the ins and outs of spirits . November 5 and 6 - Twenty-four of us scribes combined work and fun while the poor Neil House rather got the worst of this Journal- ism Convention. November 6-We came out on the short end of the score again-this time 20-7 with Findlay. Try, try, try again. November ll--Armistice Day. The good people of Central received a welcome surprise in our 40-0 victory over Rossford. November l2-Congratulations, Juniors! Your annual class play, Sweet Sixteen , was a nifty. November 17-We Seniors struggled through the Ohio State University Psychology Test. lt was pathetic the way we suffered for a whole morning-just so they could figure us out. November 18-We ,went to see the very pic- turesque Mercado's Mexican Tipica Orchestra tonight, where many feminine hearts were cap- tured by that smooth tenor. And we must try some of those tricky dance steps, too! November 24-Central and South traded speakers and cheer-leaders for the annual Thanksgiving assembly and pep-talk. Every- body is in tailspins of excitement! November 25-Central and South tied 6-6 in the traditional contest. Jumping jellyfish but that was a game-and the following four-day vacation wasn't so bad, either! November 28--Back to the same old grind. December 1-George Elias, the man with- out a country , revisited Central to tell about Lawrence in Arabia. December 7-Grade cards again! Must they always come at such inconvenient times! Now the fireworks. December 10-The nickelodeon furnished the music for this after-school dance sponsored by the Student Council. This evening the band presented a concert in the auditorium. December ll-The Central quintet white- washed Cridersville 33-20. Bravo, fellows, keep it up! December 17-Stop, Toledo Woodward, you've broken our hearts with that 21-20 score! December 18-At the Holly Hop, Santa Claus distributed gifts and candy to .Centralites seventeen
