PUT OUT TO SEA Like voyagers before us, we set out to discover a new world, its pleasures, problems, and rewards. The same as in any great voyage, there were storms that obscured the goals ahead. But Good Ship Central had much to offer cabin boys or captains. We had only to search out what we wanted. There was no need to go down with this ship; it was an adequate foundation for us. The Ship—the setting for the many events occurring during our moments at school. Day or night, it was always “on duty.” as we came and went our separate ways. Constructed in 1914. this building has served most of the time since as the city's major secondary school. Burris and Southside have since been added.

Symbol of a school year at Central for several decades, an aging ship model is displayed in a hall trophy case. Though showing the effects of time, this vessel and its voyage are as similar as ever to the experiences in a school year. The 1%3 Magician staff presents this honored craft in one of its most memorable voyages. Call it Aboard the Good Ship Central in 1962-63.
