VL 1956 Pix Stuff 5 Scenes From The Campus and Campus Left: Little Rock Central High's sunken garden and fish pond ore familiar spots where students may relax. There are two stone benches in the sunken garden; one was presented by the senior class of 1928, the other by the Silhouette Club of 1954. The beautiful fish pond is stocked with gold fish. The serenity of the sunken garden on Central's campus is a constant benefit to the student, the teacher, and the passerby alike. Right: The bright sun shines down in on effort to melt a rare snow remaining after a long and cold winter day, on Little Rock Central High School's field house—whence comes the groans of gym classes, the impatience and courage of the coaches, and the cheering of two thousand students at the basketball games. The field house is the center of many activities such as gym classes, basketball gomes, and assemblies. The field house is equipped with folding basketball goals, a trampoline, and many other facilities for sports. FOREWORD We, the 1956 PIX staff, sincerely hope that you, the students and faculty of Little Rock Central High School, will feel that you are a part of the “moments to remember” recorded in the 1956 PIX. This is your PIX, we can only hope that it fulfills your expectations. It has been our earnest endeavor to record the most out- standing happenings in the 1955-56 school year. Y ou lived the events related in this book of memories. From the beginning of school on September 7; the excitement of Color Day on November II; the final victory of our Tiger football team on Turkey Day, November 25; the gay parties of New Years; the competition for Valentine King and Queen to reign at the Valen- 6 Life of Central High School Left: Campus Inn is the scene of many parties as well as a popular spot for eating lunch. It really became the property of Central students when the 1956 Valentine Ball provided enough funds to retire the debt on the building. Right: The parking lot is a familiar scene at Central High. Any student who has bought a parking permit for twenty-five cents is allowed to keep his car here during the school hours throughout the year. Students have been encouraged to park their cars in the parking lot instead of on the street for protection in case of an accident. tine Itall on February 17; the sixty-second birthday of The Tiger on March 9; to the most important night in a senior’s life. graduation on May 25; these are the moments you will remember and cherish forever. Because it is oar task daring oar years at LRCHS to improve oar scholastic abil- ity. as well as to join the fellowship or organizations, ice have tried to include both aspects of school life in your book of memories. We hope you will treasure this book, which is now intrusted to you. as your personal reminder of many memorable days at our Alma Mater, Little Bock Central High School. Affectionately yours. The 1956 FIX Staff 7 t t dministration and Faculty £S%S§k y [T ) iW 1 a 4- _ x) „ jjf 7 £j Dear Diary. Today marked the beginning of a new school year for the students and faculty of LRCHS. Excitement ran like an electric current through everyone. Stories were told of summer adventures, old acquaintances were renewed, and new ones made. To the students this first day means many things. To sophomores, iTs a bright new adventure into a big new school with new rooms to find and new teachers to meet. To them iTs just the beginning of their wonderful high school career. To juniors it is the beginning of their middle year at high school. They are not as old and experienced as the seniors nor yet as young and uninformed as the sophomores. To the seniors this day is the beginning of their last year of high school. They are looking ahead to their future after graduation. To the faculty, however, this day has meant something far more important than new faces and names to learn. Today represents an age-old challenge for our faculty to train the young people of today to be the leaders of tomorrow. 10 — DR. WILLIAM G. COOPER, JR. President MRS. LUCY DIXON Secretary MRS. LOUISE McLEAN Vice-President BOARD OF EDUCATION The men and women who make up the Little Hock Hoard of Education are elected by the voters of our city to plan and direct the educational needs of all the city s children.

To some of us this first report card means more hours of study; to others it means a satisfied feeling that comes from a job well done. This year will not be an easy one, but it promises to be an outstanding one. We have much work before us, but it all leads to the most im- portant day in a senior’s life, graduation. Now in our minds are thoughts for the future; for what is in store for us in the years to come. On that night when we hold our diplomas in our hands, ire will look forward to a full and happy life because of the good training we have received at LRCHS. That will be the great beginning for us. 22 23 The Most Beautiful High School In America LITTLE ROCK CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL 14th and Park Streets Little Rock, Arkansas Phone FRanklin 5-1285 May 1, 1956 Dear Seniors: Although the Class of 1956 is the largest class to graduate from Central High School, that is not its chief distinction. It has contributed much to the school and to the community in scholarship, in service and in leadership. It will soon be scattered into its individual parts, and its composite effectiveness will be gone, but the values which its members have gained will be perpetuated in each member of the class. Your twelve years of formal education have consisted of many experiences, some of them remembered, some forgotten. All of them have given you a background for that reflective thinking which can help you solve your problems and arrive at a successful and happy pattern of life. Recently I had a letter from a last year's graduate, rather a typical letter, I think. This graduate had found adjustment to college life hard, with many rebuffs and much unhappiness. Because of her ability to think reflectively, she had concluded that her troubles were mostly within herself. She is working now toward a successful college life through unselfish service and love for her fellow man. Perhaps your solu- tion to your problems will be a different one; but if it is based on the trained reflections on your experiences with the great discoveries and philosophies you have met in your twelve years of education, I am sure that you, too, can become a well-adjusted, happy young adult in whatever new surroundings you find yourself. Your inner spirit, your best self, your educated judgment will direct you. Cordially yours.

The persons chosen are those whose pesonality is best suited to the distinctions they receive. No person may receive more than one of these honors. These students are the leaders and the most active members of the senior class. For each distinction one girl and one boy are chosen. We will remember these persons always. Take for instance. Doug Smith and his friendly manner and pet expression. Golly,'' and Kathryn Mehaffy's sweet friendly smile. These two are our most friendly seniors. The best dressed young lady of our senior class is the neat Miss Sarah Jane Hays, and our best dressed gentleman is the fashionable Brooks Rosen. Two very familiar faces to the student body are those of Terry Watson who served as tenth ami eleventh grade representative and this year as Student Body President, and Marjem Jackson who was the secretary of the senior class. Everyone likes a person who puts everything before himself, and we have two such people in the Senior ('.lass of 1956, and they are of best citizens. Bud Brotcn and Ann Vines. DISTINCTIONS DALE PFLUG CHARLENE GRADY MARY BOWDEN ft { 'lOj .. - BILL MOORE Most,Likely to Succeed Most Courteous 'Tiro people whom we expect to go far are Mary Bowden and Bill Moore. They are made of the things that can mean only success. Courtesy is a great possession, and those who are courteous are appreciated by all. So tee take our hats off lit our most courteous seniors, Charlene Grady and Dale I flag. There are some people who seem always to be beaming, tehom you always feel at ease with and whom everyone likes. We civilized human beings call these attributes personality, and those Seniors voted to have the best personality are Peggy Hamm and Ed Stebbins. Someone once said that everyone has a hidden talent. Well, here at Central we have two young people with talent that is anything but hidden; they are the sweet-voiced Jeanne Muse and our wonderful trumpet player, Richard Tackett. PEGGY HAMM ED STEBBINS JEANNE MUSE RICHARD TACKETT Best Personality Most Talented 1956 SENIOR CHARLES CARTER DEWANA PRICE Bost All-Around JIMMY MARTIN Most Handsome BUCKY POLK Most Beautiful There are always some in a class who seems to be just plain good at every thing. They are well liked and just best all-around. The honor this year of being the best all-round goes to very deserving seniors, De- icana Price and Charles Carter. The honor of being the most beautiful goes to Bucky Polk whose beauty comes from the very heart. Our most handsome boy, we will all agree is Jimmy Martin, a very popular senior and our Valentine King. One of the most important things in any school is school spirit. The tico whom ice chose as having the most school spirit are Johnny “Come on let's yell!'' Garner and the lively Marjorie Compton. The next two people we should like to honor are Warner St. John and Delrena Connor who are our Ideal. W ords can not express our heart fell admiration of these two wonderful people. JOHNNY GARNER MARJORIE COMPTON Most Class Spirit WARNER ST. JOHN DELRENA CONNER Ideal 68 DISTINCTIONS CORINNE CHESHIRE BILL GLASSCOCK Wittiest ANNETTE HOOVER BORYS MALCZYCKI Most Popular There is always someone who is the life of the party. Here are tico people who are the life of the senior class, Corrine Cheshire anil Itill Classrock. Popularity does not come by accident. It is something that comes from being friendly, hard tcorkiitf! and courteous to everyone. Our most popular hoy and girl are Horys Malcsycki and Annette Hoover. This year the Senior Class vice president Jan Alexander and our twelfth grade representative Jimmy Hefley take the honors of being best class execu- tives. They have all those qualities of leadership, dignity and tart that a good executive must hare. Everyone admires a good athlete and here at I.KC.HS we have the very best, Frank Plegge and Owen McHaney. JAN ALEXANDER JIMMY HEFLEY OWEN McHANEY FRANK PLEGGE Best Class Executive Best Athletic 69 Today the halls icere filled with joyous shouts of “Heat Pine Bluff”, and all of the .students of LRCHS were dressed in black and gold. Homeroom doors were decorated with black and gold Tigers, goal posts, football, and other patriotic syminds of beating the Zebras. Prises were given to the homerooms which had the best decorated doors, and the teachers who wore the most appropriate color day clothes were acknowledged. Each morning this week a pep assembly was conducted by the varsity and reserve cheerleaders. Other members of the Pen tangle clubs gave a skit on the before-school pep rallies. Yesterday after school a caravan of decorated black and gold cars paraded through the streets of Little Bock. Tonight we all went to the game and cheered our Tigers to victory over the Zebras. 70 Juniors 11A HOME ROOM 137-Edd Johnston Top Row: Warren Argo, Phillip Almond, Bob Axtell, James Atkinson, Walter Archie, Tommy Bates, Sam- my Baker Third Row: Tommy Barron, Mr. Edd Johnston, How- ard Barlow, Floyd Adams, Claibourne Bass, George Barnwell, Richard Almond.

At school the Thanksgiving assembly is always very impres- sive. When tve all gather in the auditorium and the homerooms present their gayly decorated baskets of food. it warms our hearts to see how the students have given to those less fortunate than they. Then there is the lighter side of this time of year, the annual Turkey Day football game between our Tigers and the North Little Rock Wildcats. The crowds pour into the stadium and everywhere you look you see either a gold and black or a white and blue chrysanthemum. traditional symbols of school spirit on this day. The game is always thrilling, the rivalry is always keen. and everyone has an enjoyable time no matter who wins. After the gaiety of the assembly and the game and the time to return to school from our holidays is near, ice begin to realise that the first half of our school year is almost over. All that remains are the formalities of finishing it up. Our classroom work has served us well so far and we have full confidence that it will always help us in the years to come. 86 English Classes The English Department endeavors to meet the needs, mentally, economically, and socially of their pupils by presenting the study of English in an appealing manner. While stressing the fundamental goals of English such as reading, speaking, writing, and listening, the teachers do not overlook the basic needs of all youth—the need for security, the need to belong, the need to love and to be loved, the need to achieve, the need to know, the need for recreation, and the need for aesthetic satisfaction. Those are realized through an extensive reading program.

English 12-1, a college preparatory course, embraces a survey of English literature and a comprehensive review of grammar and of the fundamental principles of writing. English 12-2, a course in everyday Eng- lish, is selected by puils who feel a need for a review of the basic principles of reading, writing, and speaking. World Litera- ture strives to achive a feeling of world brotherhood through a study of the literature of many nations. Top Left: Billie Jean Spotts works on her practical work book in English 12, 2. Top Right: Phyllis Dodd points to a waterfall in a picture display of the West.

In this scientific age it has become essential to an understanding of our world as well as a preparation for many careers. In Little Rock Central High School a college preparatory course of algebra, geometry, and trigonometry is offered. For those students not requiring such foundation, a course in applied mathematics is offered. This course deals with the mathematics of everyday living such as insurance, taxes, interest, and measurements. The study of mathematics, especially the college preparatory course is becoming more popular at Central. This year thero are 1215 enrolled in the subject. A student must understand a process before he can master it. To assist him in understanding mathematical truths, teachers use many aids, such as models, filmstrips, field trips, and projects. Many models, projects, and posters arc made by the stu- dents themselves. Left: Miss Audrey Watts explains a complicated problem to Randy Prcddy, a student in her second year algebra class. Top Right: Patricia Lee, a student in Mrs. Estelle White's plane geometry class reviews the explanation of a geo- metric figure. Bottom Right: Another explanation, this one comes from Jack Singleton, second year algebra student of Mr. W. P. Ivy. 90 Art There are a number of art courses offered at LRCHS. Among these is the basic art course which is a beginning course in high school art. Poster design emphasizes phases of art which the title indicates. It includes some work in crafts and water color painting, set up especially for students who enjoy painting in their first year course and want to keep on with it. In- terior decoration and costume design are both semester courses and are a study as the name indicates. Creative art is a two-peri- od twelfth grade subject in which individual projects are made. Each student is also given the chance to work in an art job for a part of the year for practical experience. Top Left: Students who are learning lettering in art class under the guidance of Mrs. Lucile Barnett are Verna Robertson, Winnie Baker, and Ellen Jolly. Bottom Left: Students in the creative art class of Mrs. Mar- shall often sketch on the school campus.

Nan Seitz into English in Mrs. Carolyn Bell's tenth grade Spanish and Gwen Oakes converse in French, class. Languages Three languages are offered at Central, French, Spanish, and Latin. Three years of French arc offered. Students are given the fundamentals of grammar and develop the ability to read and write the language, and to speak and understand it. Spanish is taught through conversation, a simple method to acquire a practical working knowledge of the language without classroom drudgery. Emphasis is placed upon the most common up-to-date phrases of the everyday life of the civilian in everyday situations exactly as he would find them in a Spanish-speaking country. The Latin department offers four years of Latin, alternating Latin 11 and Latin 12. The primary objectives of Latin as taught in Central High School are to give students a sound knowledge of the vocabulary and syntax of the Latin language; to develop a knowledge of the large portion of the English vocabulary de- rived from Latin,- to foster an understanding of English grammar,- to familiarize students with the myths, legends, and history of Rome and Greece. 92 Drama Upper: Four girls in Miss Alberta Harris' Drama Class are giving a performance of Heaven Will Protect the Work- ing Girl. These students are Patti Hayes, Donna Hayes, Donna DeMers, Nancy Conrad, and Molly Beth Dicus. Lower: Iris McElroy and Betty Manson are working on the effective royal robes for the Valentine Ball. Mrs. Helena Quigley is in charge of all costumes. 93 The objective of the social science department is to train pupils for effective and responsible citizenship locally, nationally, and internationally. In order to accomplish this objective, various courses are offered by the department. In the tenth grade, world history is given where the emphasis is placed upon world cultures and world conflicts among the nations. American history in the eleventh grade stresses the importance of the American Dream, and how this dream has influ- enced the history of the United States and of the world. This course offers a challenge to young citizens to preserve their great heritage and to assume leadership in building a better world. Two elective courses are offered in the twelfth grade, government and Latin American history. Government emphasizes the practical side of American citizenship, teaching rights and privileges with the corresponding duties and responsibilities of citizens. The Latin American history course is taught for the interest viewpoint. The objective is to create a sympathetic understanding of our southern neighbors and an appreciation of their culture. Maps, films, records, bul- letin boards, newspapers,magazines, and books are used to create interest in the social sciences. These courses teach pupils to examine information, to form judgments based upon facts, and to gain some understanding of the complex world in which they live.

Calvin Moore, Junior, is pointing out a few important places on the World History map in Miss Rachael Donham's World History class.

Right: Another pupil in the science department's four units is physics student, Lamar Riggs. His experiment in elec- tricity is under the guidance of Mr. E. C. Barnes, physics instructor. Both biological and physical science arc offered in Central High School. The enrollment in science classes has increased steadily during the past few years. This year there are twenty-two classes in biology with an enrollment of over 600. Biology is the study of many phases of plant and animal life. There are eight classes in general chemistry, and two in practical chemistry, with an enrollment of over 250. General chemis- try, emphasizing chemistry in everyday life, is designed for those students who do not plan to go on to college. There are two classes in physics, which is a college preparatory course offered in the twelfth grade. 95 Top Row: Charles Rowe works a lesson in business ma- chines from Mrs. Gladys Johnson.

Education Business education is both vocational and social in nature and deals with those aspects of education which have to do with developing and understanding of economic life and a more intelligent consumer use of business services. While business edu- cation has for its primary objective the preparation of pupils for entrance upon business careers, for the rendering of efficent service in their vocations, and for advancement to higher levels of employment, it is also concerned with those principles and practices of everyday business relationships that should aid one in conducting his personal business activities with satisfac- tion to himself and to society. One will find in the courses offered to the students of Central High School a program that is rich in the fundamental objec- tives of business education. Business men of the city endorse the program and are enthusiatic in their praise of the work of the students who have completed the business rirriculum. 96 Upper: Don Sparks, instructor of driver education, looks on Lower: Kathy Snell, an outstanding student of mechanical as Alice long takes a lesson on the new driving machine. drawing does a difficult plate in Mr. Floyd Dorsey's class. Driving and Mechanical Drawing The purpose of the driver education class of LRCHS is to teach the fundamentals of driving to its students so they will become careful, safe drivers. Driving lessons are given in a dual control instruction car for experience in outside and traffic problems. This year this department purchased an Auto Trainer which will aid the students to greater skill in starting the engine, starting and stopping the car, shifting gears, backing, steering forward and backward, and parallel parking. Regular classes in driver training are conducted four times a year and last approximately seven to ten weeks. Driving is a non- credit course and is substituted for the students' studyhall or gym period. At the end of the course after taking a written test and a driving test given by State Policemen the student receives his driver's license. In three years of mechanical drawing the student receives varied training. In the tenth grade, he receives instruction and exercises in lettering, care of instruments, geometric construction and the principles of orthopraphic projection. In the eleventh grade he receives instruction in technical drafting applied to machine drawing. The object is to acquaint the pupil in a measure with the common machine elements and their function. The twelfth grade work in drawing consists of architectural drawing and is for the purpose of acquainting seniors with the common details of home construction as far as being able to express them- selves by picture of drafting. 97 Top Left: David Reid operates the linotype machine in Mr. C.

Stimulated on-the-job conditions are provided by the production of all school district forms, booklets, and other printed materials. The shop is the most completely equipped in this section of the coun- try. Modern automatic cylinder press, linotypes, and a complete offset printing department, as well as the essential hand presses and other manually operated equipment furnish excellent facilities for pupil training. The LRCHS Tiger, Writers' Rende vous, student directory, student handbook and many other forms are printed by student printers especially for LRCHS.

It offers opportunities to develop one's personality through reporting for the Central High Tiger; by selling advertisements to the business people of Little Rock for the Tiger and for the Pix; through doing all kinds of photography work for the Tiger, for the Pix and for local city newspapers. It develops imagination, artistic ability, and skill in construction; skill in lay out work and makeup work. Opportunities are offered to year book workers to learn many of the fundamentals of how books are made. 99 Top Left: John Bledsoe, a second year photograph student is Top Right: Tommy Bates, a student of Mr. W.

Photography A class in photography is offered to junior and senior pupils in Central High who arc interested in learning the fundamen- tal techniques of photography. The course is designed to give an insight into commercial, portrait, advertising, journalistic, and hobby photography. Some work is offered in movie techniques. Students taking the course in photography learn to develop and print their own pictures. They learn about photo chemistry, and the history of photography. They must produce each grading period a folio of assigned pictures designed to give them experience in various photo techniques. They must onter pictures in national competition with other photography in the United States. In journalism photography students enroll who are interested in actual production and who make pictures for the LRCHS Tiger, newspaper, and the yearbook, the PIX. For these publications all types of pictures are made. The department main- tains a modern up-to-date darkroom, and without any charge to the students. 100 DISTRIBUTIVE EDUCATION Left: Fern Harden from the Distributive Education depart- ment works as a dental assistant as a part of her on the job training.

Education DIVERSIFIED OCCUPATIONS The purpose of the diversified occupations program is to prepare high school students for entrance into full-time employ- ment in the occupation of their choice. These students must be 16 years of age or older and must want, need, or be able, to profit from this type of training. Tho indirect related class consists of human relations, consumer econmics, health and safety, and parliamentary procedure. The direct related class is concerned with work on the job. The students must spend at least 16 hours per week on the job with a competent trainer under a planned training program. This job must meet certain requirements, such as a training period for at least 2,000 hours and there must be a need for training in this field. DISTRIBUTIVE EDUCATION Distributive education is a vocational program in which students go to school half of the day and work in stores the rest of the day. This work is a supervised program which gives students training in real life situations. They receive salary as an other employee of the firm and also receive high school credit for this training. There are 35 students in this department and they arc employed at 20 different training centers. 101 Top left: The girls in gym ere taking their daily warm-up exercises that are required of every gym student.

Girls' Physical Education The girls physical education program at Central High School serves to relieve physical and mental strain which necessarily accompanies academic class instruction. Classes meet five days each week. A varied program is offered, consisting of instruction and participation in team and in- dividual sports, rhythmic activities, stunts and tumbling, conditioning exercises, and trampoline work. Playing teams are organized in the large classes, number from seventy to one hundred. Much interest is shown in the round robin or double elimination of tournaments which climax the six weeks periods. Two classes meet each period. Winners of class period play-offs meet after school and continue playing until championships arc decided in many contests. 102 Top loft: 8oys climbing rope arc developing arm, shoulder, and stomach muscles.

Boys' Physical Education The objectives of the physical education program are considered under five categories. 1. Physical fitness: By its very nature, physical education's chief contribution to an individual is in the area of the physical. 2. Motor skills: In order to enjoy any pursuit, a person must achieve a certain amount of proficiency in it. Learning the skills necessary for participation in sports is basic. 3. Knowledge: Before one can learn to play a game, he must learn the rules of the game. 4. Social: In sports a person must learn the same qualities that are necessary for a successful life in a democratic society. 5. Appreciation: The appreciation of exercise, sports, and wise use of leisure time is the objective here. 103 m Top left: Lydio Lincoln in Mrs. Alva Blackmon’s foods class kneeds yeast bread. Top Right: Betty Jeon Brown in home making class sewing on a jumper dress which she is making. Home Making Homemaking courses in LRCHS are based on everyday problems, needs and interests of pupils, which relate to personal, family, and sociol development of high school girls. Pupils have some part in planning their work. Girls who elect homomaking have one term of clothing and one term of foods and related subjects. In the clothing term she learns the important facts about fibers, material, color harmony, designs, clothing suitable for different family members and how to use clothing money to the best advantage. The garments made in class depend upon the individual needs of class members and previous experiences in sewing. In foods classes girls learn the purpose food serves in the bod y, the different food substances and how each serves the body needs. They plan meals for the typical family, consider how to make the best use of money allotted to food, marketing, food preparation, and serving, including special diets, as well as needs for special occasions. Home Management covers all phases of homemaking, including care and development of children, selection of food and clothing, points to consider in selecting home and furnishings, relationships with other people, health factors, management of time, work and money, and consumer buying. 104 Nora lee Lewi , a student, is preparing to check out a Walter Lowe, a woodworking student, is skillfully finishing book in the IRCHS library while Pat O'Curran works be- a cabinet in Mr. Paul Magro's class, hind the desk. Pat aids the librarians in their work. Library — Woodworking WOODWORKING The woodworking department is open to those students who desire to learn how to use hand and machine tools and the basic fundamentals of selecting and getting the most out of wood. The students also learn the basic know-how of making and finishing furniture. Projects made include lamps, coffee tables, rocking horses, cross bows, end tables, etc. Students usually select their own projects since it is important to a student that he make something useful to himself or for his home. LIBRARY The library is one of the service centers of our school. It supplies a wide variety of materials to meet the needs of our edu- cational program and the many interests of the young people of LRCHS. A quiet, attractive atmosphere and good facilities are provided for study, for reference work, and for leisure reading. A book collection of 7,500 volumes kept in good condition is arranged by the Dewey Decimal Classification system in the two reading rooms which seat one hundred students. One thousand books in paper bound editions supplement the book collection. The library houses and circulates for the English and speech departments multiple copies of titles. Fifty-seven magazines arc received, and a five-year file of forty-one of these magazines is maintained. Phonograph records may be borrowed for over- night use. The library of LRCHS offers an open door to enjoyment and knowledge. 105 Dear Diary. All the students of LRCHS are filled with restless anticipation as the Christmas season drates near. The Christmas spirit is everywhere, in the gaily decorated halls and classrooms, and in the hearts of all. The traditional and inspirational manager scene at the front of the building reminds us of the true meaning of Christmas. There is a newer and closer fellowship between student and teacher. Everywhere the air is filled with the beautiful strains of Silent Night and other well known Christmas Carols. This was shown in the annual Christmas Assembly where the band, the choir, and the glee clubs combined to present a beautiful holiday pro- gram. Many celebralitms and jxirties are significant of the Christmas season. All the organizations of LRCHS entertain with various types of parties proving that the Christ- mas season is the best of the year. 106 4 l }JLaJ(i Jr U tUsJiA-d S J 'r tr ' ' __' , (j j CAT j ULaju (ijuJ u i VMU t jduAu (AAdAjLtt i SLot£, ud At, faktt diod -tk{, Ju d (£)qOXAj't'l llu yy J!n j t) vjvvujbt e h xUti-Av JUaJU-uA - j u).

The council unites all club efforts and works for harmony and cooperation between the clubs. The council also works to promote club enthusiasm and growth of membership. Twenty-five clubs are represented on the council; these clubs include all national honor societies, service clubs, and special in- terest clubs. The council issues special information concerning the clubs as a whole, and sponsors special projects. The principal aim of the council in recent years has been the retirement of the debt on Campus Inn. For the past nine years the Inter-Club Council has sponsored the Valentine Ball, and the clubs in cooperation with the council have sponsored dances after football games from which the proceeds have gone to retire the debt on Campus Inn. The annual Valentine Ball of February 17, was sponsored by the council, and the pre-ball program was carried on under the direction of the council. This year Carolyn Hundling and Jim Martin reigned as the Royalty of the Ball. 108 Top Row: Martha wafer, Jean Thompson, Betty Ruth Kitts, Lynn Hansen Second Row: Virginia Calhoun, Delrena Conner, Ellen Lasker, Ann Trieschmann Bottom Row: Beverly Sanford, Gwen Oakes, Elaine Evans, Sandra Holiman Pentangle Board Sponsor: Mrs. Elizaboth Huckaby The Pentangle board is composed of 12 girls who represent each of the five girls' service clubs, the Southernaires, Mega- phones, Gold Jackets, Grace Notes, and Debonaires. The Pentangle Board is the clearing house for all club information and pro- jects, it sets up the scholastic and citizenship requirements for service club membership. Each spring the Pentangle Board sponsors an informative assembly for prospective sophomore members. The purpose of this assembly is to aid the sophomore girls in their choice of clubs by giving them information on what to expect from the club membership in entertainment and responsibility. In April after the sophomores have made their choices in clubs, the Pentangle Board sponsors an induction dance for the new members. The Club Program At Ceneral The Pentangle induction dance was held in the LRCHS fieldhouse in April. The fieldhouse was transformed into a pink, white, and orchid paradise by the decorations of the Pentangle clubs. The induction dance was preceded by the individual club induc- tions. The inductees were accepted into the club of their choice in formal ceremonies. The Southernaire induction was held in the LRCHS auditorium. Each of the 120 girls received a rose. New members were told what their duties would be as a member of the Southernaires, the official school hostesses and decorators. The Gold Jacket Club received its inductees in the LRCHS club room. Each new member lit a candle signifying her willing- ness to accept the obligations of service as a Gold Jacket. TheGrace Notes inducted their new members at the First Presbyter ian Church. Each girl received a blue carnation, the club flower,and a star, the Pentangle Symbol. The Megaphones held their induction at the Winfield Methodist Church. New members were told of their duties of leading yells for pep assemblies and at athletic contests and planning and conducting color week activities. The Debonaires inducted new members at Immanuel Baptist Church where new members were given a description of their future work in promoting charities and humanitarian services. The Pentangle Board was organized in 1953 for the purpose of Co-ordinating the activities of the girls' service clubs. The Pent nqle clubs have been active in social and service projects of the school. 109 Top Row: Kitty Kirkpatrick, Joann Cope, Emma Jo Fulton, Barbara Washburn, Barbara Wohrman, Wickie Brown, Jan Nix, Charlotte Carpenter Fourth Row: Peggie Bruggeman, Gloria Boren, Sucllen Walsh, Ann Trieschmann, Ellen Lasker, Joan Adams, Betty Shocket Third Row: Diann Perrier, Lydia Lincoln, Fotinc Broomas, Carol Brooks, Charlene Boyd, Opal Mitchell, Marjem Jack- son, Carol Griffenhagen Second Row: Phyllis Van Lear, Julie Bragg, Janis McAtee, Sharon Laessig, Nona Proctor, Frances Smith, Oonna Gail Griffen, Carolyn Stanfield Bottom Row: Sue Stanley, Ginger Murry, Jean Flake, Sher- ry Mizell.

One of the leading clubs in LRCHS is the Key Club. The Key Club is composed of outstanding boys in citizenship and above average in scholarship. The Central High club is the largest in the United States and is definitely one of the most active. This year the Key Club has an honor that comes once in many years and may never happen again. Last year at the Interna- tional convention Ed Stebbins, well known senior, was elected the new president of the Key Club International. Ed, one of the favorites among his classmates, and a boxer for the North Little Rock Boys' Club, has brought much recognition to LRCHS. For every club to be a success there has to be a sponsor. This year the Key Club is very fortunate to have Coach Lawrence Mobley as their sponsor. The important honorary member of the club is Principal Jess W. Matthews, who is undisputed god- father of the Key Club. This year's president is Hammond Satterfield along with Bruce Anderson as vice president. Mike Johns is secretary; Dale Pflugg, recorder,- and Billy Moore, treasurer. Board members are Terry Watson, Lamar Riggs, Lewis Barnard, and Jim Walton. Meetings are held every first and third week of the month and there is nearly always a very interesting guest speaker who is selected by the program committee. The Key Club is outstanding in the social life of Central High as in service. There are many projects planned and sponsored by the Key Club as well as parties and other social events. There arc many committees in the Key Club, and every member serves on one of these committee. This makes it possible for every member to be active. Membership in the Key Club can be obtained only through invitation after a careful screening.

LRCHS received its charter in 1922, only one year after the National Honor Society was founded. The purpose of this club is to encourage scholarship, lead- ship, citizenship, and service. This year the National Honor Society compiled and edited the LRCHS club handbook, distributed a copy of Simplified Parlia- mentary Procedure to club officers, and served as ushers for all school programs. National Honor Society members must be on duty as ushers at all LRCHS assemblies during school and at night; their services as ushers this year have included PTA meetings. Club Night, the Christmas programs, the Key Club Minstrel, and the Senior Play. The club conducted a survey of last year's graduates to see what each is doing now that he has finished high school. 118 New Members Top Row: Doug Smith, Charles Carter, Don Morehart, Jim- my Diffce, Wayne Langley, John Choate, Carl Harris, Terry Watson, Bud Brown, Terry Faulkner Fifth Row: Ramon Blacklock, John Ross, Bruce Anderson, Lewis Barnard, Gene Rachels, Bill Springer.

This past autumn seventy-two seniors were elected to membership in this club, plus those chosen for the spring induction. The club's social activities have included a backward progressive party in the fall and the annual picnic at Petit Jean in the spring. During Homecoming week the club sponsored a dance at Campus Inn after the bonfire. The club sent three delegates and the sponsor to the National Honor Society Convention at Texarkana. The LRCHS delegation lead a discussion group at the convention. It is, indeed, a privilege to belong to the National Honor Society as the membership of this club is made up of the top schol- arship students of LRCHS. 119 Top Row: Jean Alexander, Jelean Tucker, Glenda Echols, Maxine Davis, Betty Herndon, Dudley Bumpass, John Co- ker.

Business education is both vocational an social in nature and deals with those aspects of education which have to do with de- veloping an understanding of economic life and a more intelligent consumer use of business services. While business educa- tion has for its primary objective the preparation of pupils for entrance upon business careers, for the rendering of efficient service in their vocations, and for advancement to higher levels of employment, it is also concerned with those principles and practices of everyday business relationships that should aid one in conducting his personal business activities with satisfaction to himself and to society. One will find in the courses offered to the students of Central High School a program that is rich in the fundamental ob- jectives of business education.

One of the first projects of each new sophomore class in the fall is to form a social club. It is a very exciting and unusual experience. Usually a group of boys or girls meet on a specific Sunday at Campus Inn and discuss plans for a new social club. The first step that must be taken in forming the new club is the drafting of a constitution and gaining Student Council approval of the constitution. The senior boys no longer have a social club, but the girls have the very active club, the Mademoiselles. The Mademoiselles sponsored football dances and gave programs and parties at the Jacksonville Convalescent Center and at Fort Roots. They gave food and clothes to many who needed help during Christmas. The junior boys' social club is the Centurians who during the past year have been quite active. The Prima Donnas are the junior girls' social club. Over the past year they have conducted successful parties such as their Honky Tonk Party. Their chari- ty for this year was a big Christmas dinner, gifts of clothes, and toys for five needy families. Cotton Pickers is the name of the tenth grade boys' club, organized in the fall of 1955. Though small, it has ben a very active club. Some of this club's activities during the past year have been a sock hop and a dance after a basketball game. The Non Pariels is the sophomore girls' club. This spring they held a Honky Tonk party at Campus Inn with The Theme THE HOUSE OF BLUE LIGHTS. The social clubs have done a very good job in providing entertainment, organizing outside activities and promoting good will through their charity work.

Pix and Tiger Advertisers PRINTERS, BOOK KEEPER In the advertising section of the Journalism Department, students can learn advertising techniques and improve their sales- manship skill. In selling ads, they come in contact with business leaders of this city. The advertisers learn to lay out ads as well as learn the most profitable selling techniques. Leading men of the advertising field often come and talk to the adver- tising class. The ads these advertisers sell help support the Tigorand the Pix. They sell approximately 3,000 inches for the Tigor each year and almost fifty pages annually for the Pix.

The play dealt with the Brewster family who were a bit eccentric to say the least. The two sisters. Miss Abby and Miss Martha were two sweet old ladies who couldn't stand to see old men suffer from loneliness; so they poisoned them, and buri ed them in the basement. They had three brothers,- the oldest, Jonathan, who was a murderer who looked like Boris Karloff, the middle brother, who thought he was Teddy Roosevelt; and the younger brother, Mortimer, who was sane, believe it or not. The romantic interest was between Mortimer and Elane Harper. Jonathan had a friend who changed Jonathan's face from time to time to avoid the law,- this friend was Dr. Einstein. The play was directed by Miss Alberta Harris, head of the Central speech and drama department. 172 Senior Play Cast FROM LEFT: Top Row: Jerry Bennett, Bobby Blount, Robert Bryant, Linda Cooke, LeRoy Danner.

The Little Rock Tigers' climb to the top of the Rig Light conference began on Septem- ber 9. with the first game of the season in Tiger Stadium. The Little Rock lads lost the first three games of the season. all to out of state competition. In the next nine games, they made an impressive comeback with wins in all of the games. The Tigers' win over Pine Rluff gave them the incontestable claim to the 1955 Rig Eight crown. The Tur- key Day Game with North Little Rock was the finish of the season. Rasketball season began on December 9. in the Central field house. A game with North Little Rock teas the hardwood opener for the Central squad this year. They went on to a second place finish in the conference. and won the post-season tourney and the right to be Rig Eight representative in the state tournament. They did well in the tourney. and finished second only to the tough Hurricanes of Jonesboro. Track season comes to Central with the coming of spring each year. Although the Tigers participate in many invitational meets, the main event of the year is always the Rig Eight Relays, held this year in Tiger Stadium on April 28. This was the last meet of the year for Central's Rengals. and they enjoyed another fine season this year. 174 LRCHS Coaching Staff Few schools can boast a record like that of LRCHS in all sports combined. This year has been a success in all sports, LRCHS having won the Big 8 football cham pionship and having turned in a strong finish in basketball by winning the Big 8 tournament, and by placing second in the state. The track team with speed to burn came in second to Byrd High of Shreveport only after a disqualification in the 880- relay. In state competition no one ever threatened the brilliant tracksters. Finishing with a 9-3 record in football, the Tiger gridsters, by winning 9 games in a row, compiled a record that has not been equalled since 1946. Coach Wilson Matthews and Coach Ray Peters rightly boasted that LRCHS had the best defense ever to appear here on a Friday night during their time. As for track, the record stands as proof that Central has always had excellent track men. In the last 41 years the speedy Tigers have won 133 meets and lost only 14. This year saw one of the fastest teams ever produced by Central. Much Harry Carter, LRCHS Athletic Director of their credit goes to head track coach and football trainer Coach Don Sparks. Coach Sparks has done a marvelous job keeping all athletes in condition and able to withstand the strain of the season. He has also done a good job in developing a very good track team, second to none in the state. Like almost every other school, basketball is one of the favorite sports at Central High. This year the Tigers astounded every one by finishing high in the conference, first in the Big 8 Tourney, and second in the state meet. Coach Lawrence Mobley did a skillful job of developing a team which in the beginning showed little promise, and in the end was championship material. The entire athletic program is under the management of athletic director Harry Carter, a former athlete and alumnus of Central High. Staff Gene Hall, Junior Varisty Fottball and Basketball Coach; Wil- son Matthews, Head Varsity Football Coach and in charge of Wrestling; Lawrence Mobley, Varsity Basketball Coach, Head of the Physical Education Department, and Assistant Football Coach; Ray Peters, Assistant Football Coach, and Assistant Track Coach. Training Program One of the most outstanding, and newer, services of IRCHS is the full time track coach and football trainer. Coach Don Sparks. Coach Sparks' first aid room is one of the best equipped rooms of its kind in the state. Although this service does not perform surgery or do anything of that nature, it can take care of separated shoul- ders, twisted ankles, and pulled muscles, as well as many other injuries. Having this training room not only allows the Tiger athletic teams to be in full strength, but it is also something to be looked upon with pride as very few high schools have anything to compare with it. Whirlpools, vibrators, rubdown tables, and many other kinds of first aid services, are only a small part of this training room. No training room is good without a good trainer. LRCHS's athletic department made one of the smartest moves it ever made in employing Coach Sparks. Not only is he popular among the other coaches, but he also rates tops among the boys under him. Don Sparks, Trainer of all Tiger Ath- letic Teams and Head Track Coach. Much of the success of all Central athletic teams goes to the training room. In one case if probably saved the life of a now graduated Tiger. In order to keep the room going, it takes money, which is supplied by the students of Central High. This is one thing they can be proud of and know that it is going for a good cause. Being a track star himself. Coach Sparks knows all of the tricks of the trade. He can do wonders with fifteen minutes of whirlpool, a little hot balm, scissors, and a very inexpensive Ace bandage. With the help of tape many football players have been able to play when otherwise they would have watched from the sideline. Action Top Left: Track Coach and athletic trainer Don Sparks treats Jim Martin in the well equipped first aid room.

The 1955-56 Tiger Cubs had a very successful season as they turned in a 15-2 record. The two losses were at the hands of the Fort Smith and El Dorado Varsity teams. Junior Varsity basketball is very important to Central as it builds future Central basketball players which feed continually into the varsity teams. It is traditional for the Cubs to be contested in a preliminary game with other Big-Eight Junior teams. Under the direction of Coach Gene Hall the Cubs swamped all opposition except for the two losses. Coach Hall's patience, willingness, and a cooperative spirit from the boys turned out to be the winning combination for the Cubs. Ralph Brodie, Billy Moore and Skippy Coffman led the Cubs' scoring attack as they were the three top scores on the team. They played every team in the Big-Eight twice, plus teams from Mablevale, Jonesboro, Harrison, and Van Buren, and beat them all except for the two defeats. 194 1955-56 Golf Team Pictured above are some of Little Rock's leading student pion, M.

Ark. 245 You Pay for a Business Education Whether You Get It or Not These facts are based on a study made by Dean Everett W. lord of Boston University, nationally recognized authority on the relation of education to salary.) The original data have been evaluated by the Equitable life Insurance Company of Iowa to conform to the changed index of the purchasing power of the current dollar. 1. The Untrained Man: He goes to work at 14 and reaches his maximum income at 40 with a life average of less than $2,400 a year. Since his income is largely dependent on physical strength and manual dexterity, it falls off at 50 or earlier, often to a point below the level of self-support. More than 50 out of every 100 untrained workers are dependent upon others after the age of 60. Total Earnings From 14 to 60, About $110,400. 2. The High School Graduate: He goes to work at 18, passes the maximum of the untrained man within ten years, rises steadily to his own maximum at 50 with a life average of $4,000 annually and declines but little thereafter. Total Earnings From 18 to 60, About $168,000. 3. The Business School Graduate: His permanent earnings begin at 22. By the time he is 30 his income equals that of the high school graduate at 40, and continues to rise. Since his income is dependent upon his mental ability and training and is constantly improved by practice, it increases rather than diminishes. The graduate in business administration reaches his maximum at 60 and has a life average income of $1 1,000 annually. Total Earnings From 22 to 60, $300,000 to $418,000. $359,000 Tho Untrained The High School The Business Graduate Administration Graduate For fifty years, Draughon School of Business, little Rock, Arkansas, has accepted the responsibility of supplying business and industry within our area with properly trained office personnel.
