had established himself as a member of the Stage club and had capably assisted in the stage management of many plays. Writing poetry seemed to click with him also. Dark-haired and peppy introduced Beulah Copeland. Spare moments were precious to her. for she held the position of photography editor of the Annual. Further seniors were Jean Hilgendorf, who displayed her ability as an actor in The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come and as a member of the de- bate squad; capable Earl Moreo, who was talented in journalism and served as an orator on the debate team; just two Pages in the family album, Fairy and Virginia, who were considered great G.A.A.-ers and were tops in basketball; and Lily Rachlin who was loyal to both the G. A. A. and the Blue Triangle. You noticed Clinton Alguire ' s swiftness in football, Jim Johnson ' s surc- ness in the line. Bob Teitelbaum ' s, Ed Meeks ' s and Charles Short ' s popularity in the gridiron game. Bob Boop ' s baseball. Gene Beeler ' s diamond technique, and Bob Ousley ' s runs. Did you know Harry Schipper liked track and sleeping; John Baxter participated in both sports and the band; Elton Hamilton was the flash of the cross country team; Clayton Amspaugh. baton twirler, was the lone sur- vivor of the swimming team; Betty Lassiter capably filled the assistant drum major ' s position; Joe Sells and Rav ' s superb singing voices; Orric Barr ' s ability as chairman of the graduation attire committtee; and that red haired Harold Laman, the only senior boy cheerleader. Finally, dear seniors, we must not say farewell to Central until we bid adieu to our faithful senior advisors. One of the home room noise quicters was quiet ancf friendly Miss Ethel Stiles, who has signed our endless blue, white, and yellow slips. Of course home room was not complete without jovial Stanton Steiner. You just had to mention radio short wave and he would enthusiastically explain its mysteries to you. Miss Grace McClurg, class supervisor, lent a willing hand in the further- ing senior activities. W e owe her our sincere gratitude for the time and patience she gave to us. To the seniors of the class of January 2 . 1Q40, we bid farewell. Some- day we shall meet again, and then what pleasant memories we shall share after twelve long and happy school years together. ' We shall never forget Betty Baney ' s stenographic ability. Miriam Beade ' s friendliness, Dorothy Bennett ' s faithfulness to the Blue Triangle, Bud Fisher ' s handsomeness, Ruth Holmes ' politeness. John Honert ' s blushing. Reed Blackburn ' s likable personality, Martha Jones ' dark eyes. Harold Laman ' s restlessness, Reva Lehman ' s dainti- ness, Virginia and Fairy Page ' s athletic ability. Gene Snyder ' s peppiness, Robert Stoncr ' s debating. Don Taflinger ' s wit. Ruth Taflinger ' s dress designing. Boh Teitelbaum ' s football playing, Berneta ' White ' s executive manner, Marie Wil- liams ' tininess. and Elfrieda Wolf ' s pretty red hair. As graduation days drew near, this era of our high school days came to a close. There were regrets at parting, but these regrets were either for indi- vidual failure to take advantage of numerous opportunities afforded every stu- dent or a passing reluctance at leaving the familiar halls. Members of the class of 40 will go forth in search of glory, honor, and positions. These four years in Central have been spent gloriously; let ' s not for- get them. Our past mistakes were our experiences for the future. A student of 40 Marcella Roberts tiventq-one
