A teacher affects eternity, he can never tell where his influence stops. The Education of Henry Adams FACULTY - CLASS S According to a geometry theorem, the whole is equal to the sum of its parts. Central's faculty is one of the vital parts that makes this high school complete. Known as one of the best high schools in the city, Central could not have achieved this rating without its outstanding faculty. Our teachers are dedicated teachers. For them a school day extends long past the 3:15 dismissal bell. Many Nafter- school hours are spent giving individual attention to stu- dents-clarifying the symbolism in a poem, explaining a Latin declension, or suggesting a solution for a personal problem. How far-reaching the teachers' influence on their pupils is cannot be measured. Students are encouraged to think for themselves at all times, but the words and actions of a teacher often lead students to form opinions and develop attitudes. As Central's teachers strive to impart knowledge, to awaken curiosity and a desire for learning, and to establish a feeling of mutual teacher-pupil respect, they are indeed an important part of the whole.

Guiding students in choosing careers or colleges, assisting them in studies, and serving nutritious meals are only a few of the duties carried out by the office staff, the cafeteria staff, and the cus- todians. In their work our faculty and the administrators set an example of efficiency and quality as a challenge to Centralites. MR. KING, always able to mix pleasure with work, spends many hours supporting Central activities. At- tending a baseball game is one of many ways he shows his school spirit.
