Warren Central High School - Wigwam Yearbook (Indianapolis, IN)

It was in praise of black and gold that the 1963 Wigwam staff offered its nomination for a netv school song. The song came at the cli- max of a skit which opened the yearbook sales campaign. We attended the convo in ttvo groups since our auditorium would not accommodate all 1200 of us. Thus, we were f faide iacL and Goid divided in convo and class, cafeteria and club. In our relatively new building we went many directions. However, our separation was only superficial. Among other things, we had a song which made us aware of our unity. It helped make us Warrenites first. Other loyalties came second. One more song we raise to thee. As in days of old. When we pledged our loyalty And wore the Black and Cold. Hail to thee! Varsity! And as years unfold, Warren, we’ll return to sing In praise of Black and Cold.

Weekly Schedule Includes Variety of Activities and At the beginning of the day Warrenites pause for a few minutes to listen quietly to the devotions and announcements. Devotions are presented daily by the Hi-C Club over the public address system, followed by the morning announcements given by the Student Council president. A few times during the year we were allowed to listen to something special. If teachers permitted it was the World Series. Through the miracle of electronics we may have watched or heard an astro- naut being lifted into orbit from Cape Canaveral. During the homeroom period our teachers oc- casionally allowed us to go to the bookstore for supplies. Mondays and Tuesdays were devoted to regularly scheduled club meetings. Homeroom rep- resentatives attended council meetings on Wednes- day. Thursdays were used either for guidance or for a convocation. Fridays were reserved for Pep Block, committee meetings, and studying for weekly tests. The Cuban crisis was a sudden reminder to Warrenites that they had a part in the realities of life around them. Pat Andorn, senior, starts many a routine day at Warren by listening to the morning devotions. A rare moment alone in front of the rest room mirror allows time for repairing the hairdo. Later, as a Warren Owl reporter, she gets a story from Vice-Principal Obert Piety, while Skip Hendricks waits to get information for a committee report.
