Spirit of youth and courage, Joan of Arc daily inspires Centralites from her pedestal in our second-floor hall.

THE

REASON

WHY

To make clear and understandable our theme, it will be necessary to explain the five attributes of the average intelligent high school student, which enable him to make an integral part of himself an appreciation of democratic ideals and ways of life. Foremost of these attributes is an eager cooperation between teacher and pupil, guide and guided. Wise and experienced faculty members ever are eager to help budding citizens. Under such warming tutelage the mind of the student grows and blooms, ever invading new territories to claim as a province. A natural outgrowth of such a blossoming will be a wider and more varied interest in the world of ours, evidenced by the ability with which extra-curricular activities are pursued. "A sane mind in a sound body holds true at Central, which neglects no opportunity for develop¬ ment of physical welfare. Finally, the spirit developed in the minor world is a useful one in the greater battles ahead a spirit of cooperation and goodwill, and under¬ standing of the fact that there are problems, and a willingness to tackle these problems.

Flash! Flash! At long last Central has its new addition!

Originally built to handle an enrollment of 800, Central's halls long ago became too small for the mob that rushed through them every period.

Every available nook and cranny, every

atom of space had been used, turned into a classroom. But there came a time when there were no more nooks or crannies. ... t

And when that time finally arrived, the au- |

thorities recognized the necessity for a new P

addition, begun a year ago. i'

new marvel and, well, let us tell you about it.

As we walked down the main hall, the fea¬ ture that struck us most was the unusual amount of windows. Never let it be said that we don't let our light shine forth or in, to be technical.

Clock-watchers are somewhat perplexed, as there are no timepieces in the classrooms. These objects can be found only in the halls.

The new study hall is so well-lighted that we wonder how we ever managed to see in the old session room and auditorium.

, Each room is equipped with tables and chairs desks seem to be an almost unknown quantity here.

Modern to the last detail, magnificent in structure, and the fulfillment of every Cen- tralite's dream is this our new building.

Page Seven

Our Ban Street entrance, unexcelled in beauty of architecture and magnificence of structure, invites to enter all young citizens who wish to learn.

In the schools of yesteryear, the object was to cram, if only momentarily, reams of facts, dates and names into a pupil, and such cramming was to be accomplished by force if necessary. Today our schools move toward much the same object, knowledge. But not ab¬ stract knowledge of disjointed facts. Rather an integrated whole view of history, of science, of knowledge in all its boundlessness. We admit it is merely a view of the possibilities. What we are proud of is the fact it is a view in perspective, where each piece of knowledge rests 'in perfect correlation to every other piece, where not just the date and leading general of a war are memorized, but where the causes of this war are ferreted out, and the tangled results of that war to the world are traced. Such a task cannot be intrusted to a mere pedant; it must be performed by a trained and efficient, yet wise and under¬ standing human being. It must be performed by just such a faculty as we have at Central.

Mother knows best and so does Dad!

Therefore, they must have their part in our school system. The School Board and the Parent-Teachers Association are two of the most important adult activities concerned with the student.

The School Board has charge of the school city. Composed of five members, appointed by the Mayor for five years, the Board meets twice each month on Tuesday. It's up to the Board to decide all business that comes before the school city such as the budget which gives them a headache even as our own. They also decide whether Central will have a new building, if Adams Grade School shall have a new boiler, and whether certain property should be bought. In short, they pass on all the financial affairs of the school city.

The Board can be reappointed and there must be three members of one political party, two of the other. Present members are Mr. William McKay, president; Mrs. David Vesey, sec¬ retary; Dr. Victor Hilgemann, treasurer; Mr. Ben Geyer, and Mr. Willard Shambaugh.

Most concerned about our welfare is the Parent-Teachers Association, headed at present by Mrs. Clifford Simon, president; Mrs. F. C. Stettler, vice-president; Mrs. T. C. DeHaven, sec¬ retary; and Mrs. Harry Bloemker, treasurer. Last semester Mrs. Vera Van Camp acted as president of this organization and really headed some wonderful work very efficiently, indeed.

These parents all have one common thought the highest welfare of their children. It is an organization of parents and teachers working together to promote all that is best for each and every one of us.

Yes, the parents will have their soy and we're very happy about the whole thing.

OUR SUPERINTENDENT

SPEAKS

He guides, with a view to the future, our school democracy our superintendent, Mr.

Merle J. Abbett.

There exists today the most striking challenge to every school¬ room in America to continue and to increase our efforts and to strengthen our support of the true ideals of Democracy. It is not enough to speak and write our firm convictions that America stands for the finest example of government in the whole world. We shall and should instill and imbed in the hearts of every child and every citizen the fine sense of patriotic and civic ardor for the cherished ideals of our great Republic.

The statement of Charles Evans Hughes is highly significant and true. He said the "safeguards of our Democracy lie in Edu¬ cation and public discussion." The very essence of every discus¬ sion of our great leaders in Education is to cultivate a keen ap¬ preciation of what we have enjoyed and to stimulate an earnest desire to do all we are able, to prosper and to promote those principles and practices that are truly democratic in every com¬ munity. The whole social fabric will breathe and live this spirit when we lend true devotion and tireless endeavor in promoting, teaching and cultivating the spirit and freedom our country af¬ fords.

The economic, social, recreational and moral status of each home is of genuine importance. There still exists a great spirit and desire to maintain a splendid home life, but some of the trials and hardships come from failures in our social organiza¬ tion. The strength we shall hope to present will lie in raising the individual standards of every home, rich or poor, handicapped or healthy, denied or overindulged.

Here we find a great responsibility in Education and likewise a great opportunity. We shall urge toward a continuance of a freedom that has existed since our early national beginning.

The practical, honest and truth seeking approach will bring an approach that is democratic and purposeful. We shall thus, through Education and discussion, support, honor and continue the ideals of the greatest country in the world.

MERLE J. ABBETT Superintendent of Schools

Our teachers are our line of defense in this democracy. Commander-in-chief of these forces is our principal, Mr. Fred H. Croninger.

OUR

PRINCIPAL

SPEAKS

This school is a place where anyone who comes to learn is welcome. With sixty-six teachers and 2,150 pupils, the keynote must be cooperation, sympathy, toleration, and a desire to help.

No one can make me jealous of another person or another school. What I am concerned about is that everyone should be given a chance and encouragement to develop to his fullest capacity.

We are glad to win honors in debate, in music, in athletic games, in school publications, in per¬ sonality traits, and skills but more than this we are concerned that each one be given a chance to develop in studies, character, and activities. In a school with 325 classes, and 150 different subjects and four graduating courses, surely anyone can find subjects to their liking. To do this there must be close cooperation and harmony among all here to function properly and efficiently. Besides the above there are more than twenty activities identified directly with the school which must have their share of time, place, and supervision. So you see why everyone must help and not hinder. Every absence, every unprepared lesson, every misdemeanor, every lack of material, makes it harder for all to have a good school.

Here all classes are welcome if they are here to work all religious faiths, all nationalities all regardless of size, money, or advantage. The same classes and privileges are open to all.

Scholarship, courtesy, democracy are our trilogy. We have varied school subjects and twenty- five school activities. We try never to be in too much of a hurry to be courteous and considerate. Here at Central High School we present equal opportunities. Anyone who attends school regularly, who behaves himself, and who gets his lessons is welcome.

This all is Central High School.

FRED H. CRONINGER Principal

Democratically offering precision, tact, and sympathy, our dean Miss Anna B. Lewis keeps Central running smoothly.

OUR

DEAN

SPEAKS

What are the ideals of democracy in Central that are set for youth in a Dean's office?

No question could be more pertinent to my work or nearer to my heart. Throughout a period of more than a quarter of a century there have been certain principles, fundamentally sound, that I have endeavored to emphasize as I work with young people.

The most important principle, I would say, is to teach youth to live constructively in a democratic society. His society of course is composed of his own environment, which largely is his relationship to his school. This may sound easy to do and easy to live in such a fashion, but experience in both proves differently.

Again and again I have had the opportunity to say to students, "I can not tell you what to do, but I can help you to see conditions as they are so that you may more intelligently make your choice."

If a boy or girl is normal he likes that sort of challenge, and oftentimes I am amazed at the wisdom of his decisions. Decisions made in this manner carry with them stronger convictions than those made under the influence of pursuasion.

It is the privilege of the school in a democratic country to acquaint youth with facts, and to advise him as to the significance of these facts. Only by so doing everywhere may we be saved from the ravages of a dictator. Our rich extra-curricular program at Central offers many opportunities for teaching group living. When programs for clubs are planned, we place responsibility upon the leaders, not only to take initiative themselves, but to see to it that other members of the group become active in that small democracy where everyone in the organization has some opportunity for expression.

Shadows must fall even in a democracy but see how they enhance the beauty of our halls!

Growth, both physical and mental, is the keynote of all life. In time, physical growth will cease, for there is a limit to tangible reality. After that, one can merely keep active and at a peak one s physical equipment. But mental growth must never cease, or the individual falls behind the march of life and lives in a dim world of half-tones and sees in the colorful panorama of life only motley greys and blacks and whites. He is blind to those exciting scenes which demand as their price of perception an unflagging interest, an intelligent understanding, and a desire for active participation. Central High School, as all American high schools, fosters this growth, nurtures the urge for enlightenment, and develops capaci¬ ties of tomorrow’s citizen that he may make his world a better one.

GRADUATES

By BURDELLA FELTS

And it came to pass in the reign of Croninger the Principal, that certain students were sorely vexed.

For they were weary of time-worn education, and did yearn for a change.

Yet, they knew not how to accomplish their

aims.

Months were spent in study and cramming, and lo, one of them did receive an inspiration.

Calling together his companions, he did tell them of an aged teacher of many years and great renown, who was said to be wisest among all pedagogues.

And straightway they did seek him out.

Incline thine ear, saith the teacher, for lo, I see visions of certain learned men, even schoolmasters, who, perusing manuscripts of ancient date, even unto last year’s Caldron, do thence extract ideas which pass as new.

Learn ye of them; follow their example.

And lo, the students did marvel at the wisdom of the prophet, and did praise him even into the corridors and halls.

And, straightway, they did dust off ancient vol¬ umes, even Caldrons, and did discover aged docu¬ ments, diplomas.

And lo, the vision of the teacher did manifest itself, and they did find an aged diploma, signed and sealed.

The students did dance and make merry, and straightway did take their document to a principal of great renown, and did say, O most exalted sir, O most renowned of all the earth, do give us, too, a diploma to signify that we likewise have satis¬ factorily completed our education.

And the principal did as he was commissioned.

And lo, as he was finished, the students did marvel at the greatness of their knowledge, and did noise the glad tidings unto all the world.

And they did call this new process "gradua¬ tion," and it was gained even after the twelfth year of time spent in the little red schoolhouse.

And this honor was deemed awardable only to

exalted seniors.

And great was their fame.

YOUTH -THE FUTURE CITIZEN

By BURDELLA FELTS

Today we are Seniors!

Only yesterday at least it seems like only yesterday we entered the portals of Central as green Freshmen, afraid of all the noise and hurry, and wishing with all our might that we could go home and hide our heads like the well-known ostrich. However, we made the best of things, and soon became acquainted with our fellow Freshies and grew used to the perennial razzing we received.

We jumped into the second stage of our career in Central as Sophomores. No longer were we called "Freshies" in fact, we were utterly ignored. To prove to the world in gen¬ eral that we were still existent and very much awake, we held our first class affair, a get- acquainted party in the girls' gymnasium in December, 1936.

In April we featured thrills and spills at a skating party held at Bell's Rink. When we be¬ came an organized group in the fall of '36, we chose Charles Rothschild as President; Ken¬ neth Rice, Vice-President, and Theodora Col- lias, Secretary-Treasurer. The social council was composed of Jean Junk, Richard Koenig, Harrison Richardson, Robert Gross, and Mary Frances Lauer.

With our noses at a 45° angle and our heads in the air, we strolled through the halls in 1937. At long last we were Juniors. Raymond Heine took over the helm to steer us through this, our third year, and Charles Rothschild acted in the capacity of Vice-President. Theodora Collias, as Secretary -Treasurer; Doris Horn, Gladys Hunt, Russell Buchan, Herbert Knothe, Lois Brower, and Betty Payton as social council, comprised the rest of the class officers.

Sarah Stettler stole the show when she was crowned Junior Prom Queen by Betty Bitner, queen of the class of '38.

Then suddenly we found ourselves Seniors. We realized with a start that we had almost reached the end of the long road that led to graduation. To guide us through our final year, we elected Raymond Heine, President; Ken¬ neth Rice, Vice-President; Burdella Felts, Sec¬ retary-Treasurer; Betty Payton, Agnes Yarnelle, Richard Van Camp, Bob Cunningham, Herbert Knothe, Maurice Deatrick, and George Koor¬ sen, social council. Miss Eva McKinnie and Mr. Russell Rowe acted as advisers.

We proudly march to the Emboyd on June 4 to hear Reverend Howard J. Brown deliver the Baccalaureate address to our parents and friends. Following this, we gather for the last time at the door of Central to pose for a picture our last group picture.

And so endeth a long march, for we've finally reached our long-sought destination graduation.
