CEREMONIAL PARADE gives the cadet corps its share of drill in addition to regular classroom instruc- tion. During the week at the regular military periods there is company, platoon, and squad drill, while each Thursday at parade period, the entire battalion participates in a ceremonial parade. At this time the staff selects an honor company for the week. CEREMONIAL FIRING SQUADS render a serious service to the community and the country by serving at military funerals of re- turned war dead in the Memphis area. Four of these squads, one from each company, have been organized at Central, in conjunction with the units of the other city schools. The cadet corps is proud to perform such a duty. ARMISTICE DAY PARADE, when Central’s en- tire Battalion and Band compete with those of other schools for honors, is another of the most important events of the R.O.T.C. year. Cadets are graded on attendance, appearance, and marching ability. Pic- tured are Lt. Col. Sanders, Arlene Becker, Capt. Mieher, Mydelle Lane, Maj. Liddell, Nan Hassler.
