STUDENT LIFE Student life is everything and just about anything that happens in and around Cen- tral and its students. We base our lives on our dreams and the individuality of our hopes. We search for some identity we may never find or may never exist at all. Above: We all live in and around San- ford and there is so much “excitement” in Sanford that this amusing scene could not be left out. Left: A group of students that attended a drug lecture. Don’t they look enthused and excited?

Lower Right: Even through lunch Mr. Oldham always makes time to talk to Mr. Howard and Mr. Walker about their problems. Lower left: Mr. Oldham often visits classes to talk to students. Through all the apathy this year there has been one person standing out above the rest to encourage students on to better understanding and apprecia- tion of Central. Carson Oldham does more than talk about a better Central, he works at it. His en- thusiasm and belief in Central is so strong he passes it on to all who come in contact with him. Students know they can rely on this man for any- thing, and that is important! Along with being a fine administrator Mr. Oldham is one of the finest coaches in the state. He led this years baseball team through an almost unde- feated season, and was given one of the highest honors possible for his coaching abilities by being named Southeastern 3A Baseball Coach of the Year. | | Through his kindness and good humor he has won the affection and admiration of all at Central. With love and respect we dedicate the 1972 edi- tion of Sandprints to DONALD CARSON OLDHAM.
