Pierce, Instructor OF Central High School Muncic, Indiana LOOKING FORWARD By Elaine Udell What would this world be without light? Can you imagine living even a week without the sun? Or the moon? Or the stars? Without light from lamps, candles, or fires? A horror of great darkness would lie in dense and dreadful oppression on every heart. Then suppose some one, somehow', struck a point of light into that blackness and that the light kindled and burned and that dark shrank before it like shadow's that retreat when a fire is built on the floor of a dark cave. Howr boundless w'ould be our joy! How deep w'ould be our thankfulness! Today wre wrant to express the gratitude that wre feel to a Creator Who filled a dark world with sunlight. We wish to pay tribute to a human geniu who imprisoned lightning and compelled it to serve us. We wrish to thank those shining souls who have lighted the fires of truth, knowledge, and kindness in dark minds; for the darkness of the unlighted mind is more stifling than any other. We dedicate ourselves to a new' love for all things bright and beautiful; for the light of honesty, purity, and peaa?. We pledge ourselves to follow' truth and promise to use that light which we now' have. We hope that some beams may fall into the gloomy corners and help to bring the Day.

VVc are expecting to see her name in Who’s Who’.’’ IN THE LIGHT OF THE PAST By Sarah McDowell Hope, like the gleaming taper’s light, adorns and cheers our way; And still, as darker grows the night, emits a brighter ray. — The Captivity”— Act III. On September 14, 1931, the Wilson, Blaine, McKinley, Jefferson, and Emerson lighthouses” sent 398 rays” to Central Power House.” During the sophomore dawn, beacons of English, foreign language, science, social science, commercial subjects, mathematics, shop courses, and home economics were passed. On May 5 of the same year. Exchange Club members blazed the path to the Hotel Roberts for a banquet in honor of the brightest rays.” At noon this group named Bill Reichart headlight of the junior class and Milton Roy became sublight. Betty Lewellyn was named light recorder, and Ganelda Cecil assumed her duties as pocket light. On November 1 1, 1932, footlights were flashed upon It’s a Gift,” which brought the following stars into play: Floyd Rhinehart, Kathryn Eiber, Mary Jane Warfel, John Gates, Charles Alvey, Genevieve Clore, Vera Murl McBride, Jewell Adams, Dorothy Bartlett, and Martin Schwartz. The banquet with which the Kiwanis Club entertained resplendent rays” and the junior-senior prom also gleamed along the way. Three hundred seventy-three senior rays” remained to illuminate the twilight. Some rays” had dimmed and gone out; others had travelled to new hemispheres to sparkle and glow. The social candle of 1933-1934 was lighted by the senior campaign dinner; the afterglow showed Paul Tutt.e, pres.dent; Melvin Grundy, vice-president; Vera Murl McBride, secretary; Mary Jane Warfel, treasurer; Ralph Stewart, prophet; Robert Dawson, poet, and Sarah McDowell, historian. The spotlight of social attention was focussed upon glimmering activities during the evening of the year; with radiant hearts seniors participated in the style show, mothers’ tea, senior play, junior-senior prom. Rotary Club luncheon for honor seniors, senior dance, senior chapel, baccalaureate, Latin banquet, senior picric, and senior banquet. At last the sun flames across the senior sky! Graduation gleams with such an incandescent light that reniors are almost blinded with joy and anticipation. Members of the class of 1934 wish to pass on the burning torch, and hope that it has had such a scintil lating record that it will glow in future years to kindle the way for underclassmen. While seniors stand in the afterglow, they look toward the dawn and sunrise of a new day; they eagerly await achievements that will come with tomorrow’s light. Page 3
