Fall Play Scheduled October 27-28 Central's annual Fall Play is sched
uled for October 27th and 28th. This year's play is entitled "The Giant's Dance," written by Otis Bigelow.
The play was first presented by Richard Barr and Clinton Wilder at the Cherry Lane Theater in New York City in 1964. It is a delightful fairy tale set in Western England in the year 470 A.D.
Jon Whitman plays the wise old f.-:ing Ambrose who is plagued with the problem of what to do with his tremendous army at the end of a long \\'ar. Lanette Metoyer as Queen Boudicca struggles to keep the castles d ean in the tmdition of fussy housewives . In her spare time, she takes great interest in the sacred human sacrifices which take place each Sunday and on holidays.
Their lovely daughter Allisande, played by Dalienne Majors and Joan Yahnke, finds herself engaged to a prince and in love with a Roman , \ave. Old Merlin the Magician (Paul Lubetkin) scampers through the play
interjecting his humorous philosophies 'on the world and its citizens.
The play is under the able direction of Mrs. Amy Sutton. The technical director is Mr. Ray Williams. Kathy Mulry is student director and Janet Williams, student stage manager.
1967 Hussars Drill With the Ak-sar-ben Coronation and
Ball just three weeks away, the Queen's Lancers and the King's Hussars are aheady in the midst of the preparation for their performance.
The Queen's Lancers, under the command of KaTI Lindemann, are David Bloch, Peter Chapman, Michael Harkins, Malcolm Adams, Robert Eliot, Jim Andrews, and Jim Buckalew. The Lancer alternate is Carl Tichauer.
Michael Sullivan is the commander of the King's Hussars, which include James Morris, Doug Arthur, Jim Green, Dennis Kamus, Gerald Skipton, Bruce Vaca, Gary Welna, and alternate Robert Nebel.
Centralites noticed a new face in Room III when they returned to school September 6. The new face was that of Mr. Clifford Dale, Central's new assistant vice principal and administrative intern.
Mr. Dale comes to Centml from York, Nebraska, where he was principal for three years. Before his position at York, Mr. Dale taught and coached at Fairbury, Nebraska.
A symbol of Mr. Dale's success as an athletic coach can be seen by a bright shiny trophy on his desk. The trophy portrays a football player helping a crippled child on crutches to walk. This trophy represents the ' Shrine Bowl Game of 1962 in which Mr. Dale served as head coach for the "South" squad.
It is quite certain that Mr. Dale will have a "Dr." title before his name in the not too distant future. Mr. Dale has completed all his courses for a doctors degree and all he needs to do is to write his dissertation to receive the degree. Mr. Dale received his "Masters and Bachelors degrees" from the University of Nebraska.
All one has to do is to look at the pictures on the wall of his office to tell that Mr. Dale is an all-around sportsman. Pictures of Mr. Dale in his football uniform as well as pictures of him with his hunting dog are examples of his favorite pastimes. Members of Mr. Dale's family are also camping enthusiasts and they frequently pack up and take off for the weekend. Besides being quite a hunter, Mr. Dale is also fond of fishing.
On being asked whether he prefers a small or a large high school, Mr. Dale said, "I think that a large high school, like Central, offers much more educationally than does a small school."
Mr. Dale said that he really likes Omaha and that he has had no real large problems since moving here from York. However, he said that one thing that he is not used to is the Omaha traffic jams.

Seventeen Seniors Gain Merit Statusj Weinroth First In State
This month seventeen Central students were announced as semi-finalists in the National Merit scholarship competition. The seventeen students that qualified were chosen on the basis of their scores on the National Merit Test taken last March.
Among the Central winners were the 1st, 2nd, and 4th highest scores in Nebraska. They wel'e Phyllis Weinroth, Richard Green, and Marty Shukert respectively. The other winners were Chris Berg, Amy Brodkey, Sandy Cate, Milton Erman, Jim Hylen, Mike Kaplan, Terry Lowder, Debbra McCarl, Tim McIver, Krissa Rippy, Susan Rosseter, Curtis Slama, Terry Spencer, and Mark Wilson.
Central High School had Vs of all the National Merit winners in the state and twenty-four per cent of those with scores of 150 or better. The semifinalists cut off score this year was 145.
The National Merit Society sends the names of semifinalists to all regionally accredited colleges and to scholarship - granting agencies and other sources of financial aid. In former years about half of the semifinalists have received financial aid from sources other than the Merit Program.
Semifinalists automatically become finalists with receipt of student information form, and Scholastic Aptitude results . Each finalist will receive a Certificate of Merit. From the group of finalists, actual National Merit scholarship winners will be chosen without regard to financial need. The winners are then given four year scholarships, the amount of which varies from the minimum of one hundred dollars a year to fifteen hundred dollars a year. The money may be used
Zalkin Heads Choir A Cappella Choir elected Mark Zal
kin as its president, September 13. Ronnie Wolfson and Marge Siref
were chosen vice president and secretary, respectively. Milton Erman was elected choir treasurer. The librarians are Linn Gumm and Dave Garland.
Plans for this year's musical production are still in the preliminary stages and an announcement concerning the show and the leading roles will be made shortly.
A Cappella plans to "cut" two records this year. One of the albums will be of "show and popular" tunes. The second one will ' be stnctly "sacred and classical" numbers.
A tradition which started two years ago will again be used by A Cappella this year. Instead of the old traditional robes, choir members will have powder blue blazers and navy slacks or skirts. This new look will add an air of "professionalism" to A Cappella's performances and concerts.
for the college of the winner's choice. The money used in the scholarship
program is partly the result of grants from the Ford Foundation and the Carnegie Corporation given in 1955 when the National Merit Scholarship Corporation was established. Since then the Ford Foundation has given another gra~t in 1962 to continue the program through 1970.
In the last eleven years Central has averaged over ten semifinalists a year and at least one scholarship winner.
Names of the National Merit Scholars chosen from among the 1966-67 finalists will be announced about'May 3, 1967. The exact number of awards will depend upon the extent of sponsor support. In 1966, over 2,250 Merit Scholarships were awarded.

proved to be an extremely successful and rewarding week for the six Central seniors who attended the affair. The annual institute in American government convened June 11, 1966, on the University of Nebraska campus in Lincoln, and it lasted until June 17.
The purpose of this American Legion-sponsored event was to give each delegate a chance not only to see the various aspects of government but also to actually take part in them.
A daily routine of assemblies, caucuses, athletics, and lectures kept the Central delegates busy. The delegates
In the primary and general elections, the Centralites did well. After overcoming every opponent running for Governor in his party's primary elections, Marty was defeated by Stu Hallgren in the general election. Even so, Marty was chosen for the office of Tax Commissioner, the highest appointive office in Nebraska.
Richard Green drew more votes than any other candidate for State Treasurer in both the primary and general elections; therefore, he occupied one of the seven most important elective offices in the state. He also served as chairman of his party's

included AnlY Brodkey, Richard Green, Mike Kaplan, Marty Shukert, Nick Wardle, and Mark Wilson.
Four of the seven Central delegates scored among the top ten on the written examination which every delegate took. Nick Wardle tied with four other Boys' Staters for first place on the examination, which included questions about government on national, state, and local levels. Mike Kaplan was sixth on the test, one percentage point behind the leaders , and Marty Shukert was eighth. Amy BrOOkey was the sixth-place winner among the Girls' Staters.
platform committee. Mark Wilson was elected Mayor of
his town. Very active in athletics, Mark won the 440-yard dash as well as placing second in the 880. Mike Kaplan was elected City Councilman from his town and held the position of editor of the Boys' State paper. Amy Brodkey was appointed associate justice of the Supreme Court and was elected one of the two alternates to Girls' Nation.
The keynotes to the week were the contacts made with the government officials and the new friendships which the six Centralites formed.

JP~a~g:e:2 __________ ~ __________ ~ ______ ~ __________ ~~ __ ~~~~~~~~~::~~::~::::==::::::::::~::::~:::::i::::;;;;;-~::::====:-----~: - -.I!~: ,4cJuIU ~t/JeIuud; 'II~ Mud 'Read' <J1uYn
One of the greatest difficulties that we youth face in the world today is how to cope with adults. Indeed, we have withstood social changes· both past and present, ranging from Presley to the Beatles. But the most serious phenomenon is the gap which separates adult and adolescent thinking. Even the well known Peanuts character, Linus, responded to this division of thought when he said, ''I've told you a million times that adults are different. You have to be able to read them."
Linus's solution may be oversimplified, but in effect, he might be right. Part of our dilemma may be due to the fact that we are not "reading" our ~dults properly.
For example, most of us have been told by our elders, at one time or another, that we must become more responsible. "Act reliable," "assume s9me responsibility," "use common sense," all are chants that have resounded back and forth within our ears. But in the same breath that adults demand that we develop responsibility, they 'also warn us against committing ourselves to activist organizations of uncertain leanin~s. They also tell us not to become invplved at such a "tender' age, but rather bide our time until we are more experienced and financially set.
Of course, this position of the adult world appears paradoxical to the teenager. We are told to be responsible and yet not to a~ sume responsibility. But perhaps a different "reading" on the part of the teenager is in order.
What adults might be implying is that we teenagers must first assume the responsibility of understanding. We do not initially become responsible through action, but rather through observation and evaluation. Seeking responsibility is a process of seeking understanding, of knowing the facts and circumstances. Only after we have developed a knowledge of the situation, can we begin to give thought to the proposition of committing ourselves to an organization.
But there still remains one additional requirement to fulfill: experience. We can not justly commit ourselves to a cause without the necessary exposure to everyday life. It is the concept of exprience that teenagers have the greatest difficulty in grasping.
. Of course, there is another side to this story. While it is necessary that we. read our adults in the proper light, in turn, it is equally imperative that they attempt to understand us.
The fact is that teenagers today have a "subculture" apart from the adult world. Sociologist James S. Coleman, writing in "The Adolescent Society," states it in this manner: ". . . society is confronted no longer with a set of individuals to be trained toward adulthood, but with distinct social systems. . . ."
It is necessary therefore that an agreement be reached between adults and teenagers. Attempts must be made to read and re-read the thoughts of each other. Although the gap may not start to nar-row immediately, at least we would have a 'literate" world. .
Senior year often proves to be both desirable and undesirable for the student. While it offers him all of the prestige that accompanies hi.s rank, it also makes him fully aware that he alone is responsible in securing his future position.
Frequently in the case of those who plan to attend college, this responsibility is neglected. The student realizes too late that earlier preparations should have been made to have aided his acceptance to college. Sometimes this results in the student's not attending the colleg'e of his choice.
There are ways in which a student can prepare for college admissions, beginning not in his senior year, but rather in his freshman and sophomore years.
In both the freshman and sophomore years, a student may take the NEDT test. This test is a practice round for the National Merit which is given in the junior year. In effect, this allows the student a year or two to familiarize himself with the testing procedures.
In the junior. year, a student may take the National Merit, a test for scholarship programs, and the PSA T, which is a preparation test for College Boards. The PSAT not only acts as a preview to College Boards, but also offers the student scholarship programs from fifty different organizations. . Almost every major college and university in this country today evaluates the student not only on his academic standing, extracurricular activities, recommendations, etc., but also by a standardized test. Although colleges and universities differ in the types of tests offered~ th~ majority of ~he schools rely on the College Entrance ExammatIon Board. ThIS test may be taken in both the junior and the senior years.
A~ditional examinations offered in the senior year which might be of mterest are the ACT (necessary for admission to Creighton and other schools), NROTC (for senior boys), the Nebraska Regents, and the Omaha Regents. .
Information booklets and registration blanks' for these examinations may be obtained from Miss Irene Eden, college counselor. The scheduling of the tests is as follows:
9th, 10th; NEDT-November 5, 1966 11th, 12th; PSAT-October 22, 1966 11th; National Merit-February 28, 1967 11th, 12th; College Boards-December 3, 1966

Jon and Amy with victory trophy.
CHS Profile
Podium, Stage Attract Brodkey, Whitman
Ask Amy Brodkey or Jon Whitman anything about compulsory arbitration and you should receive an authoritative answer based on fact and months of research. They should know . a great deal about it, since last March they talked their way into the State Championship in the , State Debate Tournament at the University of Nebraska. They walked away with first plitce, topping two seniors from Benson in the final round. Their topic was "Resolved: that the federal government should adopt a program of compulsory arbitration in labor-management disputes in basic industries." The first junior team ever to win the championship, they were entitled to go to the National Tournament in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The other team sent from Nebraska was also from Central, another "first."
Amy and Jon have many other interests outside of debate. As Amy .said, "We're people, not debaters!"
Amy was a representative at Girls' State this summer, a week-long government workshop in Lincoln for high
school girls . . She was appointed Supreme Court Justice ("1 was trying to outrank my father") and was an alternate to Girls' Nation. She won a chaim for scoring among the top ten on a test on government. She enjoyed singing in the Girls' State Choir most of all.
Amy has a high scho~l record of straight "ones" and recently qualified as a National Merit Semi-finalist. Her schedule includes AP English, AP Math, AP }Jistory, fourth-year Spanish, Advanced Debate, Band, and A Capella Choir. She belongs to nearly any club you could name and is a veteran ~heerleader and a former Student Council Member.. Last year she ·was a candidate for Miss NCOC.
Jon will have a chance· to shine without a podium soon. He plays the leading role, that of Ambrose, the king in the upcoming fall play, "The Giant's Dance." Jon said, "The play is a satire on the events of today, although it takes place in Britain in 470 A.D."
-by Portia BaD
Jon's schedule includes AP History, AP English, Advanced Debate, thirdyear Latin, A Capella ChOir, and firstyear typing. Jon belongs to five school clubs and finds time for activities at Beth EI synagogue. He teaches a Hebrew class ("Don't tell them it's elementary"), sings in the synagogue choir, and belongs to two youth organizations.
Both Amy and Jon are interested in music. They sing in the A Capella Choir, Amy plays the flute, and Jon plays the piano, as demonstrated in last year's Road Show.
Both are involved in many activities and enjoy being busy, but they don't think students should over-do. "It's· .a matter of personal judgment and selection," said Jon. Amy added, "People shouldn't take themselves too seriously: They worry too much; they should have fun and relax."
Whatever careers Amy and Jon finally choose, they will probably be successful if their high school years are any indication.
Four Central Seniors Relate Summer Travels In Europe An AP Biology student this year,
Lee Dinsmore performed an experiment this summer beyond the realm of microscopes and protozoa. Her experiment was in International Living as one in more than 400 pre-college students who traveled abroad in the program. She was assigned with nine other American teen-agers and one adult advisor to Bergen, Norway.
Lee spent her first two weeks with her adopted Norwegian family, which consisted of a mother and two twin sisters. The second two-week period was spent traveling throughout the southern tip of Norway with the nine other experimenters and their newlyacquired brothers and sisters. All returned to Bergen to complete the last two weeks of the venture.
"1 gained tremendous insight living as a Norwegian; for 1 found that people are people everywhere," commented Lee. She continued by saying that her stay was "the most rewarding and beautiful experience in my life."
"I participated in the world's largest non-profit program for high school students studying abroad for the summer," said Robert Hiller. The Foreign Language League sent Bob along • with 320 other teen-agers to Leysin, Switzerland, for six weeks of studying and touring the country. He spent four hours a day studying European His. tory and the remainder of the time touring and living in his new environment. The group also spent time in Geneva, Bern, Rome, and Paris.
While Bob was in Leysin, Ann Strauss, Central senior, spent two months of her summer in Lugano Switzerland, studying different cuI: tures of Western Europe at the American School in Switzerland. She studied the economic, social, and political situations and problems of several countries, and then actually visited the places discussed. Ann found that Europe was not at all what she expected it to be and found the en-
tire summer "simply enlightening."
Another senior at <;::entral this year, Milton Erman, visited Israel for eight weeks this summer · with Camp Ra
mah, a Jewish organization which sponsors the study group-tours. Milt was one of 82 in his· group of high
school students from all over the United States and Canada.
Studying Jewish subjects for about
three hours a day and touring the entire country filled Milt's itinerary.
With Jerusalem as his home base, he thoroughly studied and viewed the places where history happened.
"The inner feeling of living in my own people's homeland and learning
more about the Jewish way of life in Israel made the summer the greatest in my life," said Milt.

I am sorry that 1 haven't writ.
ten for so long, but school and the
weekend activities have kept me
really busy.
This year 1 am a member of the Brandeis High School Fashion
Board, and 1 have been involved with many exciting activities. On August 20, there was the "Get
With It" Style Show with the fabu.
lous "Enemies." 'The show featured
all the new fashions of the coming season which are now available at
BlflIldeis. Just wait till you see
them all! The London Look has really caught on in this area. It
seems like every girl is growing out her hair, shortening her skirts, and
buying some of those wild knits just shipped in from Camaby
,Street. Brandeis is even carrying
the line/ of Mary Quant elothes
now.
Wednesday night I modeled in the "London Look" Party given by
Brandeis at the Crossroads audio torium. The show featured a live
combo, a movie with tips on groom· ing (as presented by Yardley of
London), and all the fabulous styles direct from London.
During the next year, along \\'ith
the other members of the High
School Fashion Board from Central,
1 will organize and present a style
show for the members of the stu·

blast!
1 really can't begin to tell you
how great the clothes are this fa lL
Pants suits are probably my favor·
ite among the new fashions. You
can find them in all styles from
man-tailored tweeds to double·
breasted corduroys. Another [<1,·or·

portrayed in the peacoat. Also this
fall, certain colors have taken over,
especially plum and bright, bright
orange. At Brandeis you can find
everything from dress suits to sim·
pIe shifts in these fabulously shock· ing colors.
Wild accessories complete the
fall fashions. The racing look is really big, as seen in the plastic
and leather caps with visors, the crocheted gloves, and the huge
watches with the multi·colored bands. You can also supplement
your new clothes with the newest
designs in pierced and fake-pierced earrings, and those great enameled
pins and bracelets.
Well the Carnaby, military, and tailored looks have certainly made

Cain t s Comments Three weeks ago, as the gun
sounded to end the BellevueCentral game, it seemed to many fans that Central was going to have another bad year. The Eagles displayed a very disappointing first half against Bellevue. The second half was better, but it still left much to be desired.
Steve Bunch was also hampered by a hand injury which developed into blood poiSOning but it will take more than that t~ keep . St~v~ ~ut of the line-up. DespIte ID)unes, the team is determined to win at Bergquist stadium tonight. Watch the Eagles BEAT BURKE is my prediction.
CENTRAL HIGH REGISTER
JV Bounces Back After making an unimpressive
showing against Benson, Central's Junior Varsity football team bounced back to conquer Abraham Lincoln 43-6 on September 22.
One week earlier, the Bunnies outclassed the Eagles as Central fell to a 26-0 defeat in its first game of the year.
Bill Gaven opened the scoring against Abraham Lincoln on a 60 yard touchdown run. Ralph Croons scored two touchdowns and Gaven one more to give Central a 25-6 edge at halftime.
Bob Butler opened the third quarter with two long touchdown runs and wrapped the game up with a touchdown pass to Reimers.
The Junior Varsity is now even at one win and one loss.
Cheerleading Clinic Success for CHS
PageS
'Photo by Maynard Forbes Blocking fonns for another Orduna gain. But the next week was a com
pletely different story. Central's 40-0 rout of South was the biggest victory for Central since the days of the Sayers brothers.
Although most everyone's attention is focused on the gridiron, Mark Wilson made news in cross country achievements.
Last year, Wilson was the state champion in croSl! country. This year he is on his way to keeping his title, breaking three course records in as many meets. Wilson has always been interested in track.
Six of this year's eight Central cheerleaders attended a cheerleading clinic this summer at Nebraska Wesleyan University.
From June 13-17, Carole Adler, Mary Grube, Nancy Evans, Jo Wagner, Patty Sacrider, and Janet Taylor competed as a team with close to 200 other girls from the Nebraska region. The Central girls received two seconds and three firsts in their five days of competition.
Burke To Test 1-0 Conference Record Tonight
Coach Patrick Salerno deserves recognition for his fine job of welding together a winning football team.
Much praise must be given to Willie Frazier, who led the Eagle offensive attack at quarterback in the South game. He connected for six yasses-total of 158 yards; four 0 them were for touchdowns. He also scored on a seven yard run. Frazier, only a junior, has a bright future ahead of him in football.
Last year, he was also on the starting line-up in basketball. This year he is sure to become a big man on the basketball court.
Their daily routine consisted of four morning classes; two in mass cheers and one each in tumbling and pompom. Two workshops in cheers and competition occupied the girls' afternoons. Then, at night, all were assembled for general competition in which the Central team placed second twice and were judged the top team three times.
Frazier Sets Passing Record As Central Slaughters South
Coach Salerno was mainly disturbed with defense problems in the Bellevue game, but his worries vanished as the Eagle line held the Packers scoreless with very few yards gained. Some of the big boys on the line are Stan Wisnieski, Bob Taylor, Art Palma, Greg Stejskal, and Bruce Van Langen.

The cross country team is coached by Mr. Frank Smagacz and consists of about ten runners providing real depth. Strong student support will give the team the extra boost which will make it a sure state contender.
A combination of experienced lettermen and new talent has brought back a degree of respect to Central's gridiron endeavors.
Coach Salerno has one of the fastest backfields in the state and size and speed in many of the linemen. He feels that if the Eagles can start playing up to their potential more consistently they c'an improve on their 1-2 record.
Eagles Have Slow Start Central gridmen, making their '66
debut, went down in a 21-0 defeat at the hands of divisional champion Bellevue.

Come To The New
With three minutes left in the half, Steve Bunch brought the Eagles to life with a fine punt return. Central's deepest penetration of the night into Chief tan territory followed a key pass 'from quarterback Willie Frazier to Steve Watts. The hard running of halfback Elmer Reeves carried the ball down to the 15 yard line. The effort was in vain, though, as time ran out with the purple and white down 21-0.

On September 9, 1966, long time Central fans were reminded of the days of Gale Sayers as the Eagles flew past South to the tune of 40-0. A reshuffling of personnel was Coach Salerno's key to success.
A fine aerial and ground attack was led by Willie Frazier passes and long distance runs by Elmer Reeves, Vince Orduna, and Steve Bunch, The offense was matched only by staunch defensive efforts coming from Joe Shaddy, Stan Wisneski, and Howard Starks.
Nine plays from scrimmage gave Central its first two touchdowns. The first coming from a Frazier optionrollout from the seven. An on-side kick was bobbled by South and was recovered by Central. Three plays later Steve Watts made the second six-pointer when he pulled in a 30 yard pass.
On the second play of the second quarter Elmer Reeves scampered 54 yards around left end to the Packer 25 yard line, Three running plays netted nine yards. With fourth down and one Frazier dropped a swing pass into the arms of Reeves who found 16 yards of running room to the end zone.
Late in the half Central started another drive after Shaddy recovered a South fumble. A 25 yard run for Orduna and 30 yards for Bunch landed the Eagles on the seven yard line. Once again the swing pass, this
time to Starks, brought home the score to end the half 25-0.
Seven minutes of ball control in the third quarter provided the fifth Central touchdown. Bob Gilmore got the credit as he fought for the last 15 yards holding a Frazier pass.
The lid was closed over the Packers as Starks plunged six yards for his second touchdown of the night.' -
Mistakes Costly North High, one of the top rank
ing teams in the state, powered its way past the Eagles 26-6 in Central's third outing of the year.
Plagued by a fine Viking rush, good pass protection, and three fumbles, the offense had a tough time moving the ball, as quarterback, Willie Frazier was forced to eat the ball on numerous occasions.
Central's mistakes took their severest toll in the second quarter. A fumble on the Eagle four and a blocked punt led to North's first two touchdowns.
With 8:31 left in the third quarter Central finally entered the scoring column on Tony Ross' jaunt from the five yard line, topping off a 65 yard sustained march. ' The only touchdown produced by the downtown crew was instigated by the 16 yards rushing of Elmer Reeves, 15 yards of Steve Bunch, 12 yards of Jim Leach, and a 15 yard pass to Bob Gilmore.
