OWN a pleasant wooded valley, filled with
Hie bright rays of the noon-day sun, there
flowed a liny bubbling streamlet, which
caught the rays and lightly threw them
back, or else held them suspended in the
limpid pools below its miniature cataracts.
This streamlet, though not the most
striking thing in the vale, mayhap added a might to the
cheerfulness of the place and contributed, shall we say, its
small share of light and laughter to the gay imps who
romped on its banks.
And anon, after the sun had gone from the sky and the
great god of darkness sounded his approach, the imps of
the day, a bit more sober now, came to look into the brook
by night. The waler laughed and chuckled as it told of
past frolics and escapades and, gazing into the azure pools,
the imps saw again the images of old friends and comrades
at play, saw them as they had seen them in the sunlight of
the past, saw them as they could never behold them again
in the day.
And when the imps had all crept to their nesting places,
the brook sighed a satisfied sigh, for it had played its part.
Light and laughter bad it given in the day lime of the
present, and afterward it had preserved the image.
DEDICATION
To the remembrace of him who by his untiring
efforts, did so much for our class during the days
of its organization, to him who was our first presi-
dent, our foremost classmate; to the late Richard
Stryker we dedicate this, our last gift to the school
he loved.

IJTORW
Central s Class of 1916 is the first class to pursue its entire four years’
course in the new school, or perhaps it might be well to say in what was the
new school at their time of entry. When, as a body, they assembled on Feb-
ruary 7, 1913. in their first class meeting, the teachers, the students, the pupils
and the members of the school as an institution of learning said “Ah! We
are indeed fortunate to have such an organization as this to become the first
offsprings of the New Central.”
At this first meeting of the chosen Hock, a leader was elected with great
competition and hot campaigning of the various halls of learning, whose rep-
resentatives, gathered here from all parts of the city, wished to carry off the
honors of this, their first administration. In this hotly contested election,
Webster School won the day, and her loyal son, Richard Stryker, became
President; Helen Torinus, Secretary; Julian Beck, Vice President; Everett
Knowles, Sergeant-at-Arms; Dorothy Kneffner, Milton Pino and Frieda
Claussen, Finance Committee. All proved worthy members of a most competent
crew in the sailing of the good ship, Class 1916, on her first treacherous voyage.
During this time, Mr. Brace was put at the helm, and the class colors and con-
stitution were adopted, after being suggested by committees, and chosen by
the class.
Great festivities were planned, and a party, the first in the new school,
was held with the freshmen as guests of their upper classmen, the sophomores.
The parly was a huge success, as indicated by the hearty laughter and applause
at the entertainment, and by the frequent trips made by the sophomores to the
punch bowl.
At the first meeting of the new year, on September 12, 1913, the athletic
report was read, and by the victories laid at the feet of the class, it seemed
(hat Ninel een-Sixteen would lead in the list of honors won.
The election of the new officers came on October 10. 1913, and the success-
ful aspirants were; .Harrison McClung, President; Donald Countryman, Vice-
President; Gertrude Hauser, Secretary; Carol Gunderson, Sergeant-at-Arms.
It was then suggested that the class should elect an athletic representative in
the guise of a “Cheer Leader.” This met with hearty approval, as some of the
members then thought the plan did not necessitate the removing of themselves
to the places of conquest, and they forthwith carried out their thought. The
fortunate and honored gentleman was Clifford Taney.

THE SENIOR ANNUAL
Much hot discussion was waged between this and the following meeting
on January f), 1914. as to the proper and most magnificent insignia in the form
of a pin. At this meeting the decision on the pins was not given, and most of
the argument was whether to buy from a St. Paid or an outside firm. The
pin was not decided upon until the next meeting, with Vice President Donald
Countryman in the ehair, and it was then that the St. Paul boosters triumphed,
for Bullard Brothers were given the contract.
In the given name of juniors, the class held its first meeting on October
10, 1914. It is this year that may well be called the social year of a prepara-
tory school, for it is then that the Junior-Senior is held, and great anil many
are the good times at this season of festivities.
The previous years’ incumbents were succeeded by Louis Crosby, who
was elected the new ‘‘High Mogul,’ and his trusty advisors, Gertrude Smith,
Vice President: Edith Murray, Secretary.
A heavy tax was levied on the class at the next meeting, and as the previ-
out collections had been comparatively slight, it was not. supposed that any
great hardship would be encountered in collecting it.
Two very important events of the second term were the junior-senior
debate and the junior-senior ball. The former was a great success as far as
the juniors were concerned, but not wishing to make any hard feelings, little
will be said here except that the victorious junior orators, Clifford Taney,
Elisabeth Forssell and William Bennett, carried off the cup, while Harold
Shugard, the illustrious business manager, carried off thirty-one dollars and
fifty-two cents.
The junior-senior ball, the social event of the school year, was held the
evening of May 14. 1915, and the success of this was proclaimed far and wide
by everyone who was fortunate enough to be present.
Upon our return to school in September, 1915, we found ourselves Seniors,
yes, mighty Seniors : but not, it seemed, so mighty as those we had gazed upon
with awe when first we had entered the portals of our beloved institution. (In
fact, after the first cards were submitted for parental observance, many of the
mighty felt mighty mitey.) It was rather with a feeling of regret that we
entered with the thought of it being the last year of our sometimes troubled,
but nevertheless happy, school days.
During the first part of our last and most important year, the new officers
were elected. It was here that the political training of the girls out-shone
that of the boys, for Elisabeth Forssell was chosen President and proved a
most capable leader forthwith. We were also fortunate in having chosen for
her able assistants and class officers, Hale Manuel, Vice President; Gertrude
Hauser, Secretary: Dorothy Kneffner, John Merrill and Carl Bremiker,
Finance Committee, who duly elected Louis Crosby Treasurer.
At the second regular meeting of the Senior class, the Senior Annual
Committee reported those chosen who have worthily published this yearly
contribution of the Senior class. Mr. Brace talked on the debate at the fol-
lowing meeting, and as we had given our challenge, the next thing to do was
to come out for the trials. Elisabeth Forssell. Clifford Taney and Lawrence
Brings were chosen Nineteen-Sixteen s defenders of the cup, and again carried
off the honors for the Orange and Black.
A class party, given the afternoon of Thursday, March 16, was also the
scene of much hot competition and rivalry in a mock track meet in which
various leaders were chosen with appropriate names and significant colors.
A little dancing was indulged in, but because of an extra charge for janitor s
service, it was necessary for revelries to cease much before sunset.

The Honor Roll
In the lour years of our high school life we have busied ourselves with
many things, but, behind all our activity and frivolity, behind our dramatics,
athletics, and other student affairs, lies the main reason for these years at
Central: the pursuit of knowledge.
This Honor Roll is a list of Seniors who have been the most diligent in this
pursuit. They merit this, the sole honor conferred upon them for their work.

The C. H. S. Organizations 1915-16
With the exception of the few organizations which have remained totally
lifeless during the past school year, the various classes and clubs have been es-
pecially active, perhaps more so than ever before in the history of Central.
The organizations referred to as dormant include the Inventus Club, the
Teutona and the short-lived Literary Society. Because of the idleness of these
organizations, they have not been given special note in this department of the
1916 Annual. In justice to its members, it must be said that the Historical
Society has done much very creditable work; but this activity has been private
and not open to the entire school.
First among the schools “live wires,” we place the Dramatic Club. This
body in undertaking the production of the Shakespearean Pageant, has un-
doubtedly done something greater than anything ever before attempted in this
school.
The Orchestra, to which we accord second place, has continued its upward
climb, the zenith of which for 19.15-16 was most certainly reached when it
rendered so admirably the music for the Pageant.
The Glee Clubs, Boys’ and Girls’, by several appearances in public, have
come in for their share of prominence. The plan of having two clubs seems
to have worked quite well, and it is to be hoped that the pupils will continue their
enthusiastic study of good music.
Between the three classes, there is little to choose. The Juniors have,
without a doubt, done much to enliven the school throughout the year.
Their debating team, their athletic teams and their Junior-Senior have all
contributed to make school life interesting. The class of 1918 also has done
all in its power to further the welfare of the school during the past year.
But in spite of all that has been done by the classes of T7 and ’18, it must be
said that, for one so young, the Freshman class of this year has by far outshone
all the others. In every instance, its debating team and its athletic teams have
furnished such strong opposition as to bring, if not always a victory, at least a
glorious defeat. Taken from every angle, the class of 1919 has without a doubt
proved itself to he a live wire, and gives promise of being one of Central’s
greatest.
After reading the Individual articles in this department, we believe that
everyone will agree that the year 1915-16 has been one of remarkable activity at
Central. May the members of the classes that follow 1916, continue to do their
share in the good work and thus carry on the fame of dear old Central forever! !

Dramatic Club
("DHAFiATflC © CLUB]
The Dramatic Club when spoken of, as that of Central High School, takes
with it a score of enthusiastic and complimentary remarks, for our Dramatie
Club has certainly made for itself a reputation which is widely known. And
this reputation, most assuredly, is one of great credit to the school as a whole
and to every person who helped make the Club what it is today.
As every one of us know, if anything is to succeed there must be someone
back of it, someone who with his great ability is driving and uplifting the dif-
ferent parts to make them work as a unit. Is it necessary for us to tell you of
Aliss Austin’s wonderful work with the Club? She, alone, is responsible for
its high standing throughout the city.
The Dramatic Club has been led by Harold Shugard as president: Carl
Bremicker, vice-president and Frieda Claussen, secretary. The finance commit-
tee consisted of Louise Sommers and Clifford Toney. These officers, all of
whom are Seniors, have faithfully and thoroughly done their work, as our
1915-16 successes have shown.
Following the suggestions of Harold Shugard. our president, a Club ban-
quet. was held. Hero most of the club members and a group of the alumni were
gathered. After supper we were entertained by speeches from graduate
members and also by a play of which Alone Drezmal was the author and lead-
ing lady.
Later in the winter Louise Sommers was hostess to the club members at
a very interesting party at her home. A program of games and short, plays and
comedy sketches was given and then, of course, we had “eats.” We had a
glorious time, as we always do at Louise’s.
Then Harold Shugard was host for the members who went on the sleigh
ride and we cannot possibly tell how wo enjoyed being with the bunch.
Now last but not least comes the pageant which has been commented on
by far more competent critics (han the students of Central. We will let their
commendations stand, only adding another word of appreciation to our director
Miss Austin, and others who helped to make the production a success.
In this brief history we have tried to relate the doings of the Club during
1915-16.

JUNIORS
I was told that this history was to be very brief and to the point, and that
1 could not review our past glories. So here it is, greatly condensed, of course.
Naturally the first thing we did on getting back in September was to elect
officers. Clarence Sanders was chosen President: Monroe Severson. Vice Presi-
dent; Helen Griffen. Secretary; Jean Elmquist and William Forssell. Finance
Committee. Martha Randall was elected Treasurer. Our election this term
shows that women cannot be held down, for Helen Hauser is President ; Wil-
liam Forssell, Vice President: Ruth Fitch, Secretary; Jean Elmquist and
Heine Pino, Finance Committee. Ralph Tuttle is our Treasurer.
We also selected our class pins this year.
Soon after the year began we had a marshmallow roast. A crowd of us,
with Miss Dickson. Miss McFetridge, Mr. Miller and Miss Elliott, went out to
the river boulevard, where we spent a most delightful evening toasting marsh-
mallows and wienies. (Makes your mouth water, doesn’t it?)
Then in November we had a party in the library. Our entertainment
consisted of a skit entitled “Box and Lox.” and dancing. It certainly was an
enjoyable affair.
Now the girls are giving a series of silver teas.
We have gone in for all kinds of athletics. The boys who received num-
erals for football were Howard Woolsey, Monroe Severson, Wm. Forssell.
Charles Fee, Clayton Lewis, Roland Quinn. Henry Neilson and Ryland Roth-
child.
We had a hockey team, but unfortunately the weather prevented our
playing any games. However, we have good material and hope for better
luck next year. Our basketbail team is very fast; and as for track, some of
the best men on the school team are Juniors—Ed Paulct, who goes out for the
dashes, relay and half: Everett Knapp, pole vault: Claude Kramer and Paul
Weiss, high jump; Joo Rebholz, star dash man, and 1 oimny Kellar, low
hurdles. These are all Juniors.
At the time of writing the Junior-Senior debate has not come oft yet. but
the team is ■working very hard and we are confident that 17 will win.

Hl5orii(mr.a
I he class of .1918 has made a record for activity during the past year.
This has been largely due to the work of Miss Matson, (he class advisor, as
well as to the ability of the various committees.
Although not particularly successful in athletics, the teams representing
IS during the past year, have furnished strong opposition in every instance.
The baseball team last spring although finishing at the bottom of the list,
had the honor of twice defeating the warriors of the class of ’.16. Football
proved unfavorable to 1918, and basketball was much the same. In the 1915
inter-class track meet the team of 18 made a very creditable showing, finish-
ing second only to the class of ’16, while running against such “C” men as
Paulet, Butler, Read and Shannon.
if the class of .1918 was not particularly brilliant in athletics during the
past year, it has certainly done its share socially. Among its many social
events were: the marshmallow roast and the wiener roast, the sleigh ride and
last but not least the “Soph" party.
In the literary field the victories of ’18 have been notable. The “Sophs"
won five oul of eight honors in The World literary contest, •Josephine Farmer,
Dulcie Kees, ((race Phillips, Franco Smith and .Marcus Howard being the suc-
cessful contestants.
In the advertising contest of The World the first two of four possible
places went to Wilhelm \ Ivisaker and Edward A. Merrill, 1918.
The class of 1918 is well represented on “The World” staff also. Start-
ing out with one Sophomore the class now has five members who are all doing
their share to represent the “Sophs.
The officers for the first term 1915-16 were: President, Adrian Schade;
Vice President, Lois Moore; Secretary, Leslie Irvin; Finance Committee, Leon
Lambert and George McDermott.
Second term : President. Adrian Schade; Vice President, Alberta Eber-
hart; Secretary, Stuart Willson: Treasurer, Leslie Irvin; binanee Committee,
Harry Thompson and George McDermott.
We the class of 1918. are sure we have started on a successful career.

On the seventh of September, nineteen hundred and fifteen, timid kids,
w.e came to Cent i al, noses wiped and faces clean. Every single shrinking
1 reside wore a brand new suit, I think; which suits, like their shrinking owners.
straightaway began to shrink. Every charming Freshman lassie wore white skirts
all stilt with starch (they were laid away last winter, but appeared again in
Alarch). On the whole, 1 feel quite certain, we were just an average crew;
good and bad mixed in together, like the oysters in a stew. Some there were
who came to Central for the pleasures of the day; and of those who came to
study quite a few remained to play. But there is a host of live ones in this
present Freshman crowd; boys of brawn and girls of wisdom, of whom Central
will be proud.
When I try to write the hist’ry of this class, great tears I shed, for, regard-
ing class achievement, precious little can be said. Hist’ry is not made in rag-
time, in brief minutes, like a rhyme, but records the “human progress” through
long periods of time. Such a short time we have been here, (and we’ve had
such lots of fun), that t’ward making Central hist’ry, very little has been done.
In athletics we have triumphed in most every game we’ve played, though
the record of successes is a brief one, I’m afraid. Shortly after Central
opened, in the snappy days of fall, Nintecn's football team assembled to pur-
sue the pigskin ball. Then, at last, the whistle sounded, and our first real game
was on, with the Juniors for opponents, huge in size and great in brawn.
But we had some shifty sprinters (though our linesmen did not shine), and
they, had but little trouble rambling through the Junior line. Seven large
and juicy tallies represent the Freshman score, written large upon our banner
with the ink of Junior gore. Next the Sophomores we played with, and the
phrase “played with” is right, for that feeble aggregation didn’t bother us a
mite. Just six points that bunch collected, in a game both fast and clean,
while the Freshmen, for their total, used their numerals ‘'Nineteen. Com-
mon honesty compels me to record our one defeat. AV hen we bumped into the
Seniors, they just played us oft our feet. I forget now what the score was,
but it matters not a bit. When a subject is unpleasant, what s the use dis
cussing it?
So you see, as I first told you, our class history is brief; but it s one that s
full of pleasure, without hint of gloom or grief. In the test, if length is
counted, we will get a red-ink E, for, though we are long in numbers, we are
• short in history.
But we envy not the Senior, with his hist’ry four years old; our school
story’s just beginning, while his tale is almost told. Ihiee jeais uioicat good
old Central! Say, Old Senior, wouldn’t you rather be just starting hist’ry than
to be so nearly through? >1£)_
Orchestra
[ JORCFIESTRAI1
The Central orchestra is an organization which very few high schools can
equal. In nineteen hundred five Miss Long took the orchestra under her care,
and through her untiring efforts it has reached its present state of high
efficiency.
This year the orchestra gave an assembly which was a great success.
The program consisted of solos as well as selections rendered by the whole
orchestra. Besides playing at the regular orchestra assembly, the organiza-
tion has been present frequently at various other assemblies throughout the
year.
'Phe players in this year's orchestra are: Piano. Hale Manuel: violins.
Douglas Manuel, Kenneth Utter, Fred Emmert, Myron Quinn, Frieda. Claus-
sen, Joe Pavian, Ralph Habeman, Lorence Johnson, George Riley, Jack Berry,
Roslyn Weiskopf, Margaret McClintock, Allyn Bowker, Edward Merrill,
Joseph Stemper, Herbert Gross. Katherine Doran. Lenore lallman, Ruth
Zimmerman, George Harrison, Ned Milligan. .Henry Kuelner; cornets, Milton
Pino. Ernest Bremer. Evcrard Bullis; clarinet, 1 heodore Losby : cello, Geoige
Larkin; bass viol, Harold Lund; Hute and piccolo. Harry Rossman.
The orchestra has increased in numbers each year. Also the variety ol
pieces has been augmented materially.
Since the members of this year's orchestra have done so much to increase
its proficiency, it is to be hoped that their successors will continue the good
work, and so make the Central High School orchestra the best of its kind. __

Girls Glee Club
I he Glee C lub, unlike that ol former years, has been divided into two
separate organizations, the Boys’ and the Girls’ Glee Clubs. Beginning with
the school year, September, 1915, the clubs were put under a new director.
Miss Florence Dickinson taking the place of Miss Olive Long who made such
a success of the old club.
Forty girls were chosen by Miss Dickinson and Miss Shawe to make up the
Glee Club proper and another forty to make up the waiting list.
Doris Sischo, Doris Barber and Corinne Bimer were the pianists chosen
to accompany the chorus, although Corinne Bimer has been the only active one
up to the present time.
At the first meeting of the Glee Club, the President, Corinne Bimer; Secre-
tary, Jean Elinquist; Treasurer, Marguerite Kock and Librarian, Ruth Luckcrt
were elected, after which a system of by-laws was adopted.
The Club meets every Tuesday, when every member must be present. If
a member is absent four times without good excuse, that member is dropped
from the roll and a member from the waiting list takes her place.
Dues are paid every semester, and with these the (lub is financed.
At the beginning of the second semester, new officers were elected . Hazel
Gleason, president : Marion Brimhall, treasurer and Alone Drezmal, librarian.
The Club has appeared twice at outside performances and has sung at
school assemblies several times. Two or three engagements hax i a na<t
made for next year with different outside organizations.
Wishing to foster the spirit of the new' organization, we held several vert
delightful silver teas, where we very happily became acquain ec.
The only objection a few of us have to the Glee Club
Seniors, graduating in June and have had the pleasure o t o
only one year, with Miss Dickinson as our director. Q0^nne Bimer.
Boys Glee Club
The Boys’ Glee Club is a recent addition to Central organizations. In
past years the school Glee Club was made up of mixed voices, but this year
it was decided to have two separate organizations. Under the capable direc-
tion of Miss Florence Dickinson, the trials were held and the new club
organized.
At the first meeting of the Clnb the officers were elected and the by-laws
established. All members must have a passing average in at least three studies.
If one falls below this standard, he is dropped from the roll until he has made
up the low grades. So far it has not been necessary to put this ruling into
effect as the scholarship of the members has been up to the standard.
The first recital was given in the school auditorium in conjunction with
the Girls’ Glee Club. A program of interesting song numbers was presented.
Ernest Bremmer. taking the solo part in the “Toreador,” was undoubtedly the
best on the program.
The next school assembly in which the Club took [.art was in apprecia-
tion of Burns’ Day when a program of famous old Scotch songs was renderec.
The Club has enjoyed several outside engagements and has met with
fair success in all of them. The present officers are: M. -levee, piesnen ,
Joseph Borg, librarian and George Lamb, treasurer.

We had a. hard time getting our “say” in the Senior Annual this year
because they said we were dead—we did not do anything. We argued that still
water runs deep and that, in this case, we were the still water.
Probably not one-twentieth of the students realize that an Historical
Society exists. Out of those who know, maybe half realize the work which is
being done. And most of these have been on the committees which do the work.
You will not realize it until you have to obtain some information in regard
to Central graduates or the activities of our school. A picture of each graduate
is carefully preserved in filing cases which are placed in the office. All informa-
tion regarding that person's actions during his school career are placed with
his photograph and as information of him is received after he graduates it is
entered in the file.
Also there arc scrap books. Tf you want to look up a football game or a
track meet, ask permission to use the athletic scrap book. It contains clippings
from the papers and follows the careers of our best athletes until they leave
school. The social scrap book contains records of our plays and social functions.
Ask to see them sometime. They were made for you to look at and too few
realize it. You Seniors can help immensely after you have graduated by drop-
ping a line to the Historical Society, care C. H. S., giving a little information
about our alumni. The files are very difficult to keep complete and any assistance
would be greatly appreciated.
So remember: Births, marriages, operations and particularly scandal arc
all in our line and we hope you have enough school spirit to “let us in” on any-
thing your neighbor is doing after he or she graduates.

One institution which has bestowed upon Central prominence and renown
and which will live in the hearts of all Centralites is The World.
When Central had been founded but ten years, the first semblance of a high
school periodical came into existence as an irregular chronicle of local happen-
ings. Since that time The World has, through the enlargement of its field of
activity, grown into a mighty institution—a monthly magazine in which twenty-
five editors labor to represent with integrity the interests of the students of
Central. A periodical of any sort should manifest the prevailing spirit of the
organization it represents. The stories, articles, illustrations ami personals
used, have, in the editors’ estimation, given voice to the literary, artistic and
jovial natures of the students. Continually haunted by the Spirit of the School.
the editors have tried to further her interests.
Tn order 1o discuss their past experience with this School Spirit, the mem-
bers of the 1915-16 World staff gathered, on February 11th. 1916, about a banquet
board, which could scarcely bear up its delicious load. After they had partaken
of the fruits of the committee’s labor, Bob West, in the role of toastmaster, called
upon the editor, for a talk on his experience as such. Miss Minor then told about
the early trials and successes of The World. Miss Parkinson spoke of I he
World’s relation to the teachers and incidentally touched upon the evils of knock-
ing. The varied and variegated fortunes of the members were then read amid
the roars of laughter which they produced. The editors of The World, labeling
for the same interest, were gathered together, as the clever designci of the
versified futures stated, in “one large family. . ■ >
However, this family is only a smalt part of that o~r
raised The World to its high standard of excellence. 1 he pi. ■ noth n-
is receding in the hundred of high schools whore Central isknonn to noth n
else, should be justly given to the student body, winch by its loyal support ha
made possible the publication of The World. yan_
The stage force at Central High School is a group of boys who take care
of the stage and run it when there is a play or an assembly. About forty
per cent of the people m school do not know that such a body exists or do
not know any of the boys who are on it.
1 he foiee is under the direction of a stage manager, and he is responsible
for everything that occurs on the stage, and to some
people’s way of thinking, anywhere in the building.
If a book is reported missing from the library, the
stage manager is sure to be asked to hunt for and find
it. He has to do everything from scrubbing the stage to
hanging pictures in various parts of the building.
The fellows on the force have to work .just as hard as
the manager, and sometimes harder. They must come
to school and work on the stage any time the manager
sees fit, and sometimes they get to school at seven in
the morning and work until after dark. Let it be
understood that the positions on the force are strictly honorary, the only
remuneration received by any of the members being a lot of experience and
sometimes a little sympathy.
To get on the stage force, a person must be up in at least three studies,
and must be nominated by the manager and passed
by a committee composed of certain members of the
faculty.
Of course there is a lot of fun connected with the
work. The force at Central has many old traditions
and customs which must be lived up to. Phen they
have family gatherings in the property room, some of
which have become more or less notorious.
mysterious affairs take place back of the stage which
no member of the force is allowed to divulge. I he boys
also derive much pleasure from chasing what they teim

The thing that stage hands detest, most is what they call a “Star.”
“Star” is. in the vernacular, a person who insists upon trying to run the stage
whether he knows what he is about or not. He is a loud-mouthed individual
who is always criticising what the stage force does; of course if it
down to work, he could not do hall so well himself.
The main difficulty is that he does not realize the con-
ditions which exist on our stage. The place is very
crowded, and there is no room in which to put things;
there is no fly gallery, the switch-board is in the wrong-
place, ami we have a limited amount of scenery with
which we must represent everything from a ship on
the ocean to an angel flying in the air.
A stage hand also hates a Pest—that is—a person
who insists upon hanging around the stage, and is
always fooling with the ropes, scenery, switches, etc.
The Pests are always in the way, they are of no use, and like the “Star” they
are an altogether unnecessary evil. For the benefit of future managers and
crews, let us try to eliminate the “Star” and the “Pest.”
We of the stage force have not the easiest nor most enjoyable position in
the school but on the whole the fun balances (he work and the force is satisfied
and leaves with regret.

DON
A Few of Us
A lew mouths ago we all caught the debating fever aud staged two of the
most hotly contested arguments that Central has ever known. The Freshmen
and Sophomores woke up first and proceeded with great gusto, bustle and
clatter to settle once for all the momentous question: Resolved, That the
United States should materially increase its military and naval armaments.
The Freshmen won and became so chipper that they wouldn't even speak
to the lordly Seniors when they met. in the front hall. Whereupon, said mighty
Seniors, fully realizing their superior degree of knowledge, sent a flowery
worded challenge to their bitter rivals, the Juniors, suggesting that the two
. classes get together and decide a little matter of city government which was
worrying their fond parents. The question was: Resolved, That the present
form of commission government is preferable to the old representative form
it superseded. But right here a difficulty arose. The Juniors were perfectly
willing to argue, but they insisted that it was only fair and just to allow them
not only to choose their side, but also to state the proposition to be debated.
'The Seniors said, “Nix,” and the whole business would have broken up like a
spring derby, had not our class advisors gotten together and settled the affair.
Well, nothing more happened for a while, only Senior boys seemed very
willing to contribute to “improvement funds,” fly kites, etc. Then came the
night of the debate. We have not the time to tell everything that happened at
that debate, nor to mention how “Ted” drank three gallons of ice water, and
then said he had all the authority from President Wilson clear down to Mayor
Powers, how the Juniors said “’Tis,” and the Seniors replied faint, or
how the Senior banner floated over all from a hidden drop. We will simph
say it was a good debate and thank both teams lor a pleasant evening s entei-
t a inmen t.

“Why all these fluffs and flowers and bows?” the smallest Freshman said.

“Why do the boys look white, so white?” the smallest Freshman said.
“They’ll have to walk the platform soon,” the Janitor replied.

There’ll be speeches and orations like it was election day,
And they’ll hand out long diplomas all tied up with ribbons gay,

“What is that music that I hear?” the smallest Freshman said.
“Our Central song, our Central song,” Jim Martin then replied.
“What is that awful thunder noise?” the smallest Freshman said.
“Our Brccky yell they’re givin’ now,” the Janitor replied.

“A fine young class we’re losing now,” Jim Martin then replied.
“Oh, there’ll be others coming on,” the smallest Freshmen said.
“But ne’er a class like old ’16 1” the Janitor replied.
They’ve studied here for four long years and pranks they’ve played here

THE S E NI 0R ANN UAL
Centralia Cook Book
1. Ging-er Snaps.
You will need 2c. of each
Dean Beeman.
Harold Shugard,
Carl Bremicker,
Paul Nelson,
Harry McClung.
Seasoning will be found
sufficient. Mixed with a
little cash they are deli-
cious. Do not use a roll-
ing pin, as they are thin
enough at present. Cen-
tral High can never afford
to be without this recipe,
but the chef doubts
whether any other class
than ’16 has material
good enough to substitute
for these.
4. Prune Whip.
1 tbsp, each:
Winfield Stevens.
Lucile Burrows,
Arthur Goldberg,
Dora Eng.
Mix slowly. Then add
sugar if desired and juice
of 1 lemon. Serve cold in
chilled glasses. A very
satisfactory and original
recipe.
■ 7. Peach Jam.
Mix portions of
Edith Murray,
Dorothy Kueffner,
Thelma Osmundsen,
Alene Drezmal.
Add honey to suit your
taste. This is good in any
season, especially on other-
wise solitary evenings. It
is a very popular recipe,
but usually best liked when
taken in small quantities.
2. Johnny-Cake.
Gather together
John Daggett,
.John .Merrill,
John Quinn,
John Wolfe,
John Roberts.
You may not recognize
them by these names, but
do your best. Mix well.
This is a very satisfactory
recipe. Although it looks
as though it would be
rather monotonous, it is
just the opposite. Brown
well on both sides and
serve hot.
5. Candied Violets.
These can be secured
only after football season,
for they are generally
banged up at that time.
Procure:
Bud Z.,
Bill Dwyer,
“Scotch” Colee,
Phil Vinck.
The chef warns you be-
forehand that the process
of coating these with sugar
is no light task. Lasso
each one, and with a pre-
pared sweetened glue coat
each one quickly. When
stiff and helpless they will
be eligible to the candied
violet class.
8. Irish Stew.
For this you will need
equal portions:
Vivian Irish,
Gracia Kelley,
Leonatus Mulligan,
Raymond Murphy.
Add Steve Shannon for
seasoning. This stew re-
quires very little heat, as
the mere presence of a
German will make it boil.
Serve with shamrock
sauce.
3. Preserved Pairs.
These are to be put up
in cans just for two. After
sterilizing 3 glass jars fill
them carefully in the fol-
lowing order:
Carl B. and Marie R„
Hart C. and Lillian I.’
Herb. B. and Cecile M.
Pour over these a sugar
syrup. You cannot get this
too sweet. Seal tightly
and place on exhibition.
6. Tongue.
Gather on your kitchen
table:
Ted Taney,
Grace Judge,
La Reine Allen,
Alvin Bowe,
La Mora Michaud.
If found to be rather
fresh cover for 2 weeks
with brine. A very hot
oven is necessary, as they
are already accustomed to
heated arguments. This
recipe will be found indis-
pensable to debating so
cieties and book agents.
9. General “Bill”-
of-Fare.
A very special menu:
Courses.
“Bill” Toensing, soup.
“Bill” Williams, fish.
“Bill” Patterson, meat.
“Bill” Dittes, dessert.
This will be found to
combine in a pleasing way
all the essentials of a good
meal. As a parting word,
the chef always absolutely
refuses to pay hospital or
undertakers’ bills caused
by following his recipes.

Perhaps some of you remember the Senior popularity ballots that appeared
in the April World. You scribbled a name or two on one and gave it to some-
one, who might or might not have known anything about it, then you probably
forgot all about, it.
But someone collected the votes from the teachers, the World box, etc.,
and counted them. The results of the contest appear on the following pages.
-■ These pictures (taken as Freshmen), are true copies of the physiognomies
of our beloved classmates. The owners guarantee them to be authentic, all
appearances to the contrary, and in some cases are even proud of them.
One picture, we regret to say, was censored, in spite of the fact that the
owner, our illustrious football captain, claimed it was real cute.
Among the girls Elisabeth Forsscll proved by far the most popular, add-
ing one more to her unique record of honors.
The boy’s contest proved a walkaway for Steve Shannon. Steve polled
three-fourths of the votes cast which is, we affirm, some record.
With this brief comment we submit the pictures; adding but one remark.
that some of our classmates are greatly changed.

Middle Names
The day that Senior List came out
Weren’t you all surprised to see
The classy middle names we had
Of aristocracy!
We never thought our Karl so mild,
Could carry such a name
As “Karl Alonzo Edgerton”;
His family’s high in fame.
Then Lewis Crosby you’d most expect
With a monocle to see,
For you never could find the name “La Mont
Just growing on a tree.
And that likable lad we all know well,
With a lengthy monogramme.
Must surely come from some high rank—
Sir George 11. Hewittson Lamme.
(Alias Lamb.)
We wonder too, how that Henley boy
(Speaking of classy names),
Can carry with all the brains he has
The name Virginius James.
And could you ever guess that Steve,
With such an English way,
Would have as Frenehy a second name
As Quinby? Oh, I say I
Surely that brilliant lad we all know,
Must grow names on a family tree,
For along with Huntsinger he signs
Ross Lauteen—you see I
Now, Margery’s middle name must have
Some important significance.
Marg. Pett Clark—she must have been named
By a couple of loving aunts.
And wouldn’t you feel honored if,
Tn your papers, you could sign
Petronella A. C. Hackett?
Ah! Wouldn’t that feel fine?
Marie Nettie Violet Pearson,
I read with blinking eyes;
Such a long name must be some load
T say with heavy sighs.
T HE S E N I OR ANNUAL 81
And Anna Marie Elizabeth,
I can’t get it all on a. line;
For this name has seven letters too much,
But the name of Pewters is fine.
Helen Witherspoon, you know,
Has a very spry middle name;
It’s Hopper, you see, but we agree
Helen’s just as spry as the name.
Reginald Banister is some name;
But it’s most incomplete,
Without'the Reiger added on
To make it a regular treat.
I wish T had the time and room and space
To continue to write and rhyme;
But I haven’t the room or space, you see,
And neither have I the time.
Do you know a little story?
Hand it in ! Hand it in !
Does it tell of fame or glory?
Hand it in ! Hand it in 1
Be it short, or be it long,
Be it. weak, or be it strong.
Be it right,or be it. wrong.

Now comes the Post Mortem of our High
School Careers. As we look back upon some of
the foolish things we have clone, we wonder how
we could ever have been so idiotic, and when
we look back upon all of our different crushes,
we wonder how in earth we could ever have

the brilliant record of the old class, we feel
as proud as proud can be.
But say—have you noticed how they have
reformed? They have given up the old life
for the girls. When we look back and see what
crap-shooters they used to be, we marvel at the
change that has come over them. Yes—he likes
her very much—she has such pretty hair too.
Isn't it funny lately how so many infant prodigies have come* into the

It promised to be a very interesting affair too.
Isn't he a regular dickens with the girls? Every time I see him he is
fussing someone. That is about the only thing that I have against him, though.
That was a nice little affair that the four of them started this year, wasn’t
it? You hardly ever see them apart. That is the kind that last quick. The

Isn’t it funny how the styles change from time to time? She' doesn't wear

THE S E NI 0B AN N U A L
Of the Foremost Senior
The ’sixteen class has smashed many a record during its brief existence.
Its members have done much in athletics, class work, and student activities
generally, to forward the cause of Central. Each has done his part toward ’16 s
success; but, of course, the greater achievements have been the work of the few.
If one girl combined in herself the offices of class president and valedic-
torian, took a leading part in the school play, headed the Senior Debating Team,
edited the feature section of this book, wrote the class poem, produced on oui
stage a play written by herself, edited the Alumni department, of The World
and won the Senior Popularity Contest, you would agree that she was some
lady.
Betty Korssell has done all these things during the past year. She has
accomplished the work without seeming to be busy, for she always has time toi
a smile and a joke, even if it is on herself. ’Sixteen has reason enough to be
proud of her president; each member of the class may count himself richer if
he possesses her friendship, and the school will long remember, for her remark-
able ability and winning personality, the foremost of the Seniors, Elisabeth
Forssell.
Through all the work and fun of high school years.
The little common things of every day,
You guided us and helped us by your trust;
You understood—for that is Mother's way.
Whether we sought advice or cheery smile.
Our smallest interests we could bring to you,
And with us you rejoiced, or with us grieved;
You sympathized—for that's what mothers do.
How sweet and strong your influence has been I
We owe a debt of love we ne'er can pay.
Yet come what, may, one thought will keep us true:
You’ll love us still—for that is Mother's way.

A Tale of Two Very Bad Boys
One day two very nice little boys started out to school, hand in hand.
They are both very well known to yon, I am sure; the one, on account of the
color of his hair (just like vanilla ice-cream), and the other, because of his
smile, which extends from our beautiful school to the corner of Avon and
Grand. Well, as these two boys were walking, who should appear but bis
Satanic Majesty, who immediately detecting the innocent look of these boys,
tempted them to leave the road to this incubator called Central High School,
and bend their only too willing footsteps toward another place for raising
chickens, called Humboldt. You have probably heard of this place, gentle
reader. The outcome of this escapade was very sad, for a hard-hearted
individual of that institution detecteel the cherubic physiognomies of these chil-
dren, and made a report to Central High School. As 1he.se boys had been over-
indulging in athletics, the authorities thought it advisable to. give them a
week’s vacation. After this vacation, they returned, happy m the thought
that they had both found friends here so that they do not have to spend ten
cents to talk to a pretty-one at Humboldt High School.
An A B who was also C D,
And of money who hadn’t N E,
Said, “I’ll write an S A
On tliis age of D K,
And I’ll sell it for cash, don’t U C?”
Sitting beside 1< T,
Holding her hand, was lx C;
He looked in her I’s;
By this time U R Y's,
For U C that K C loved lx T.
Now, do U get the 1 D?
They never had met B 4,
But what had she 2 K R?
She loved him 10-derly,
For he was a 1,000,000-airc.

I’m just a tiny mumps germ, a tender little thing;
I only dare go out in summer, winter, fall or spring.
They always scold and pick at me, where’er 1 try to stay,
But Ted Taney is the worst I’ve struck in many a busy day.
It hurts my tender feelings to have him bang the doors.
And cry he loathes, he hates, abominates, detests, abhors
Sweet little me! He is as spoiled and cross as he can be!
He makes me feel so very sad by thus abusing me,

And that I never could.
He’s really the bestest ehewer

And when it comes to track meets
All round you hear this buzz:
“Did you see that streak that just went by?”
“I couldn’t make it out.”
But when he comes in winning
We all just give a shout
For he’s the man who taught us how
To shout with all our might,

And an awful pain in my head.

While my hair of muddy, brown

Kept me quite wide awake:
All of a sudden I tho’t it
And reached out, a pen to take.

So that’s why I’m writing at midnight
To this girl of the sixteen class.

Not quicker than the nipper.

To see if it was loaded.

One day last fall, to see if it
For skating would suffice.

While reading once in bed,
To sec if he could keep awake—

On a camp-fire bright poured oil.

To lessen some her toil.

Comment
When in the course of human events it becomes necessary to summarize
tlic efforts of the class of 19.16 to uphold and to add to Central's athletic
record, I view the task with a feeling of security and satisfaction. At the same
time there arises in all the “C” men a feeling of regret that their period of
participation in those grand contests is drawing to a close.
In writing this review I shall give 1916 all the credit it deserves, but
will try to guard against the natural tendency to glorify one's own class as the
supreme power in athletics. The class has greatly appreciated the efforts of
Coach Al. Herrmann, and in token of our regard we leave him some good ma-
terial for next year in the persons of Messrs. Warren, Jones and Langlord.
In summing up it will be well to note that twenty ol our classmen have
won among them sixty-five “C’s.”

Central, 0—La Crosse, 0.
In nineteen hundred twelve, when the football season opened, a man named
Hermann, who had been away for four years, returned to Central and again
took up the duties of coach. Tn addition to his regular troubles as gymnasium
instructor, he had a bunch of quarreling freshmen on the field, who were in
his way. He heard just one name of 1916 and that was Dwyer. Two other
1916 athletes made their “C” that year but failed to stay at this school.
The next year Herrmann found a nest of 1916 men. They were Bagley,
Dwyer, Leach and Cardozo. He knew that this combination if handled prop-
erly would generate energy and in the right place do good work. After a
rather disastrous season we tied Mechanics.
Tn 1914 the team was full of 1916 men. There were eight “C men,
namely: Bagley, Dwyer, Cardozo, Kobe, Leach, Stevens, Zimmerman and
Manley. We succeeded in beating Duluth, who had had our goat for two
years. We tied North but lost to Mechanics. (Curses!)
When football practice opened in 1915. one would have thought it was a
Senior team out. From last year’s team there were six 1916 “C” men back-
But there were more who were going to make a “C” from the ’16 class.
Altogether, thirteen Seniors were on the 1915 Minnesota State Championship
team.
Cardozo, at center, played a bear of a game and had a fine season; Q.'’n^LeV
son. Johnson and Manley played a good game at quarter; Roberts, ^^^-g
and Dwyer, at half, always were seen tearing up the turf. Bagley again had •
“Jinx” with him. “Bags” was laid up for nearly every game; Vine ? y ne.
McDonald were the terrors of the opposing tackles; Stevens was a steady in
man who held his own with any of the beefy ones. TTobe and Zimmerman we
always sure to nail their men, “Zim” could stick to forward passes like glue.
For a Senior class to have thirteen members on a team which cleaned iH
the Minnesota State Championship and tied for the Wisconsin Champions
is a proud record. This is what the 1916 class has done in football. Foi
last two years the football teams have been under the leadership of 191b m
Bagley and Cardozo.
T HESENIORANNUAL 111
In the first game oE the season, our Red and Black clad heroes made a
fitting start by accomplishing the usual feat of downing Humboldt, 33 to 0.
Although the score was one-sided, the Humboldt bunch put up a good fight.
The following week, however, gave us a game which was a battle. North
High of Minneapolis journeyed to Lexington Park with a bunch of "vets"
and with the intention of wiping Central off the map. North scored first on a
series of forward passes. 'Phen Central carried the ball straight down the
field for a touchdown. They soon followed with another but North came back
and tied the score, 14 to 14. Central came back strong and made two touch-
downs, making the final 26-14. Bagley and Zimmerman helped greatly to win
for us. North was the only team to score on us.
Duluth was the next victim. They got it 38-0. The defeat of Duluth was
good as we had been beaten by them for two years straight, 1912 and 1913.
Last year, however, we defeated them.
Johnson came next and went home with a. 54 to 0 count against them.
The game was slow because of a hot day. At that the team felt sorry for the
Johnsonites, who put up a game fight. Big hope of a championship team arose
before us.
Then came the big game of the season. Al first we had had a big hunch
that we were going Io win the championship easily, but meantime we were
changing our minds. Bagley, Dwyer and Manley were not expected to start
the big game and perhaps not to play in it at all. However, the team buckled
down to hard work and when the game started all three were in their usual
place, but for how long no one knew. Tho game started out like a thriller and
the first quarter ended : Central 7, Mechanics 0. Soon after the second quarter
began, Bagley was taken out with a wrenched collar bone. When time was
called for the first half. Central had the ball on Mechanic’s three-yard line.
Central had many penalties against her for off-side and holding, fn the third
quarter Central scored twice. They again scored in the final period making
the tally, 28 to 0.
The season was concluded at La Crosse, where we met the heavy La Crosse
High team, champions of Wisconsin, and held them scoreless.
The 1915 team was not altogether an aggregation of veterans. Tt was
a fairly heavy team. The sole reason for its success, we believe to be Coach Al.
Herrmann. Too much credit cannot, be given him for his untiring effoits to
give Central a team of which she is worthy, a championship team. May he
have even better luck next year!
Captain Cardozo, Mr. Schofield. “Bee” Lawler and Mr. Kidder and the
assistance they gave, will not be forgotten by. the 1915 team.
Frank Warran was elected captain of the 1916 team. He is a star both
on the defense and offense and was ranked as one of the best high school ends
in the Northwest.
The Senior class football team won the inter-class championship, easily
defeating all class teams.

In 1914 the Senior class was represented on the basketball team by Car-
dozo and McDonald. They finished third in the league, with two victories
and four defeats.
In 1915 we had three men on the team, Ifobe, Cardozo and McDonald.
The season was not very successful. McDonald was elected captain for 1916.
'rhe 1916 basketball team finished a rather disastrous season, holding
third place, with two victories ami four defeats. They started out great,
beating-both Humboldt and Johnson. Besides (he league games, Stillwater,
White Bear ami Ellsworth were played. We lost at White Bear ami Ellsworth
and broke even with Stillwater. Cardozo was selected by (he Dispatch for
all-star guard, 'fhe fact that the team was made up of seven Senior men
shows that the Seniors had a monopoly on basketball this year. The class
team was cleaning house when this went to press.
The track championship for 1 f) 1G is yet to he decided. So far this spring
(April) nothing but indoor work has been done, but, from (he appearance of
the candidates, a fast team is expected. One dual meet has. he.en held, with
Minneapolis Central. This meet, though lost by us, was very yyluable in
showing where the team needed strengthening. Central lost out in the pole-
vault, runs and hurdles. On April 1 the Athletic Club meet came off, but we
arc unable to review it here. On April 7 comes the second annual St. Thomas
meet. This closes the indoor season. Shannon and Prong, considering their
performances to date, will undoubtedly prove stars in the mile. Hobo, Manley,
Rebholtz, Gruenhagen, Jones and Paulet are doing the dashes. All are about
equal, running the 50-yard, 100-yard and 220 in fast time. The relay team
should cut quite a lot of turf this spring, if all indications come true.
In the weights we have three good men in Colee, Cardozo and Hillmond.
Kramer is now doing 5 feet, 4 inches in the high .jump and should do- better
outdoors. Knapp is doing fine work in the pole-vault. Paulet is running in
old-time form again and should clean anything around the '1 win (ilies.
Coach Al Herrmann will devote all his time to track, and hopes to cop
the Twin City meet at the “U.’’ of Minnesota, the Northfield meet and a few
dual meets, with the team this year.

In 19.14 the Senior class had one man on the Twin City championship
team. Zimmerman was the speed boy. Due to his good work, he was chosen
to captain the 1915 team. In 1915 the hockey team under “Zim.” won the
Twin City title, beating all St. Paul schools and three Minneapolis institu-
tions. Four of the team were of the class of 1916. They were Johnson, Zim-
merman, Dwyer and Manley. Dwyer was chosen to head the 1916 septet.
During the past year all hockey was played under the auspices of the
Outdoor Carnival Club. Central won the tournament by defeating all St. Paul
high schools, and carried oil: a large silver loving cup as the trophy of victory.
The season was very successful for the effort Central put into it. The Seniors
were well represented on the team, “Bill” Dwyer, “Carp” Zimmerman, “Joe”
Roberts and “Stub” Manley being the Seniors, while Monroe, Garrett and
Langford made up the rest of the team. The Seniors furnished two captains
of hockey: “Zim” in 19.15 and Dwyer in 1916.
Few Seniors are happy now-a-days,
As the time draws very near;
Real sad are we all, both large and small,
Everyone sheds a tear (Boo-Hoo.)
Why? Ah! Because that terrible time,
Each year comes round in June;
Leaving our dear old Central,
Leaving these halls so soon.
Central we’ve loved and lived in,
Each Senior so fond of his school;
Now we must leave, though we hate to,
To follow life’s new rule.
Remember, Seniors, these high school days
And all your friends so true,
Learn to make new ones, but don’t forget
Your friends who’ll remember you!
As the baseball team has not been picked, it is impossible to do more
than review the work of last year and give the prospects of this year's team.
While we did not win the championship, last year's team closed a fairly
successful season, '['he weak point was consistent batting, but Coach Lawler
hopes to remedy this before the season rolls around. We hope to cop the
“rag” this year.
'rhe 1915 graduation cost us only one player, but three have left since,
leaving us nine veterans as a nucleus for this season's work. Captain Leach,
who failed to return to school last term, was undecided up to April 1st. as to
whether he will return or not. Zimmerman, Bagley, Manley, Pino, Johnson,
Sturner, Spencer, Napier and Dwyer are the old men back. Of these, all but
one are Seniors. Judging from the large number of candidates that turned
out at the first practice this spring. Coach Lawler ought to be able to pick a
championship team. Leach, of the 1916 class, has the distinction of being
re-elected captain for the 1916 season, after a successful career as pilot in
1915.
Coach Lawler, who takes charge of baseball, has played three years at
the “U.” Last season he played with the Winnipeg “Peggers” of the North-
ern League, where he created quite a stir. Here’s luck to you, “Bee”!
Tennis does not seem very popular here at Central, mainly because the
season commences when our school lets out. Every year the Interscholastic
Tennis Tournament takes place at Minneapolis during the first week of June.
Teams are entered from North and South Dakota and from Minnesota.
'Phe team is selected by a tournament held every year. The three best
players represent the school.
East year Clarence Sanders won the Twin City, interscholastic tennis
championship. As he is a junior, we have hopes of again annexing the title.
But he needs some more players; so, turn out, boys, back of the school, and
1 ry for the team.
