CLASS OF 1946 As sophomores, we cameg as juniors, we saw: as seniors, we con- quered. As we came to school those -first few weeks of our sophomore year, there was a definite period of adjustment when we were trying to adapt ourselves to Gentral's endless and frightening number of halls, class- rooms, teachers, and upperclassmen. However, we soon felt enough at home to organize and elect the following ofiicers: Phil Bayless, president, Ed Ebrite, vice-president: Mary Lou Madill, secretary: Barbara Henman, treasurer. The main event of that first year was a big dance and games party at the end of the first semester. During the spring semester, we held a heated campaign to elect our junior officers, and a second vote was required to select the winners. We saw ourselves ready to begin work in our junior year under the direction of our officers: Dick Beeson, president: Hubert Austin, vice-president: Naomi Fisher, secretary: Juanita Jones, treasurer, On November 2, we made our first contribution to Central's social life with a lively all-school dance. We also gathered in the auditorium to hear Inge Blumenthal, a German-Jewish refugee, talk about her life in Nazi Germany, and to see 'Bubbles Concerto. hBrother Goose, with a brilliant cast, was the play given during the second semester by The 1946 Magician

the junior dramatics class. We entertained the mighty seniors in May with the annual prom at the Masonic Temple. In the midst of all this activity, we still took time out to elect our oflicers for the Hnal year in school. We have certainly conquered this year, for here we are ready to graduate after a very busy one. Among the busiest have been our of- ficers, led by Burl Keys, senior president. Serving with him were Don Grundy, vice-president: Naomi Fisher, secretaryg Juanita Jones, treas- urer. We started the year out with a flourish as we ordered our class jewelry, our name cards, and our invitations. The annual senior dance was held in December, and following in rapid succession were the Senior Career Conference days, the formal senior ball, and College Conference Day. This year we were the honored guests at the annual Junior-Senior Prom. And then all those pre-commencement activities required another deep breath. Finally, the symbol of our conquest . . . that diploma! Working with us during our period of arrival, sightseeing, and con- quest, have been our class sponsors. Mrs, Helen Pennington, the chair- man of sponsors, took over the job during our sophomore year when Mrs. Gladys Townsend Hoan resigned as a Central teacher.
