Pupils View Futures College-Career Day
Business a nd education join· ed forces in Flint on October 23 for the ninth annual Col· lege, Career, and Armed For· ces Day. Local industries, firms, and universities and col· leges from Michigan and sur· rounding states sent over one hundred representatives to talk with students in their fields.
LYJm Wright
Junior Joins Area Counc.il
Lynn Wright, a junior, recently received ~ews of her appointment to the 15-member Youth Advisory Council for the 16-state Midwestern Area of the American Red Cross.
This council meets twice a year and plans the Red Cross prograin in its area. Lynn will attend her first meeting on the 1962·63 council Novem· ber 16 and 17 in St. Louis,
I
Missouri. Between meetings, the mem·
bers have specific program areas on which they work through correspondence.
Lynn's enthusiasm for the Red Cross is shown by the easy manner. ·in which she tells of her experiences in Red Cross over t he past seven years.
In the ·.f ifth grade she rep· resented her school a t the Genesee County Council and started her work for Jled Cross. I During the summer of 1961, Lynn and another represen· tative of the American Junior Red Cross were sent to Cana· da for the Toronto Junior Red Cross training program repre· senting the ·united States.
She has been counselor at Red Cross camp at Camp Cop· neconic for the past two years. Last year she was president of Central's council.
This past summer Lynn spent 12 days in Lake Forest, Illinois. This was for an adult wor~shop · for teachers ·and school administrators concern· ing Red Cross program in the midwestern states . .
In these past seven years Lynn has found that the Red Cross has a lot to offer. For her dedication and work, the Red Cross has given her mem· ories, 'friends, knowledge, and a wonderfUl future.
After r eceiving their sched· ules In homerooms, s tudents attended the classes which they had previously selected from a list of 73 dl!ferent vocations. The day was divided Into six classes of 45 minutes each.
S tudents had a chance to get acquainted with various col· leges by asking questions about ' curriculum and social life. The students were a lso briefed on vocations of their choice.

The club members wUI receive new megaphones and are planning on new vests to wear at basketbaU games.
Counselors have talked ov~r the possibility of having such a program once every three years. The two reasons stress· ed for this change were: (1) the preparation of the College, Career, and Armed Sel'vices Day involves a month of work; and (2) the students might grow to appreciate this oppor· tunity to a greater extent. The colleges woUld still be repre· sented every year for the ben· efit of the seniors, however.
At the end of the day, students returned to homerooms to fill out evaluation cards. They were asked to evaluate the use of time, the quality of the representatives• talks, and offer any suggestions for im· provement of the program. They were dismissed at 2:30 p.m.

semester but was moved to the !all semester in order to be of greater influence and benefit to s tudents interested in the U. of M.
To help high school juniors a nd seniors decide on which college to attend, this program is set up to observe living accommodations of the Univer· sity of Michigan, to observe various colleg~ functions and to ask any questions they might have on college life.
The schedule for U-Day involves two main sections of time. There will be a mass meeting at 8:00 a.m. in Hill Auditorium. From there stu· dents will go on campus tours, through the dormitories, and sorority and fraternity houses, and will attend mock lectures by well·known u n 1 v e r sit y . speakers.
That afternoon the schools and colleges of the University will sponsor an open house to give the students a chance to become better acquainted with the schools.
U-Day offers an excellent ch<lnce to inspect the physical facilities of the school, as well as meet and chat with the staff and faculty of the school the s tudents plan to attend. Those interested in attending should see William Melzow, dean of counseling.

Speed Reading Second Section Begins Nov.l2
Beginning November 12, the Mott Foundation will offer another eight-week course in speed reading. The class will meet at the De \Vaters Art Center from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. eacl1 Monday and 'Wed· nesday.
A fee of five dollars and your own will to learn are all that is needed to master a skill that will enable you to read much faster without los· ing the thought and main ideas behind the selection.
Since many courses in speed reading cost as much as $400, it would be a wise investment for those who take advantage of this low enrollment fee.
The class requires a selec· tion of a book from a specific list and practice reading during class time. Outside reading is necessary for further bene· fit.
Those interested in joining the class can register by call· ing the Mott Foundation of· fie~. ·

Strilte Down 'Organizers~! We are living in a period in which wasted spare time
is considered a sin by a group of people I shall call "the organizers." .
The leaders of "the organizers" are boo~-tramed experts on the subject of relaxation. Their followers and supporters are misguided do-gooders.
If an "organizer" spies a group of idle adolescents, middle-aged widows or decrepit oldsters merely sitting or talking, he runs.' through the .stre~ts shouting, "Idle· ness breeds corruption! Wasted time IS lost forever! Organize! Organize!"
Once the problem has be~n brought to the pu~lic eye the organizers hold a meeting. S?on a plan of. act~on is devised and a multitude of> cha!JlpiOns of orgamzat10n descend upon t'he "time-wasters."
The teenagers end up at a teen club where they can perfect their pool shooting, the widows are sweet-talk~d into cake decorating classes, and the oldsters are rml· roaded into rhythm fests. . . . . " .
Although one may see no harm· m th1s orgamzation" at first, a look into the future could strike terror in a lazy man's heart. . . . .
With shorter working hours mdustrl'al f1rms Will be setting up organized ballteams and self-improve!ll~nt classes for men. More and more classes and societies will be set up for women. Longer school hours and more
. extra-curricular activities are in store for :youth. . . With every waking hour spent at orgamzed actiVIty,
individual thinking and planning will come to a halt. T~e individual liberties granted to us by our forefathers will be lost in a maze of organized ping-pong tourneys and glass-blowing classes.
The time to act is -now! We may let .Q_urselves be taken into a few well·chosen organized activities but we must tread carefully. Let us make sure we keep some spare time to read .. talk, or me~itate in o~d~r that we may have individual ideas and opmions. Th1s Is the only way our heritage of individualism will be kept a live.

Complexity IGlls Conversing The fine art of conversation is becoming an increas
ingly difficult one. Truly, it i's ~odar so dem~nding that few C'an use it well-a fact which Is often mcluded on the list of OUJ society's ills. The. 'blame tor this alleged decline in good oral commurucatl'on has been placed on television and preoccupation with the rat-rac:e, among
· other things. · The real trouble, however, is with neither of these,
but can be attributed broadly to the complexity of the modern era, a period in whi'ch there is more tD be aware of than ever before. With improved tools of research, all fields of knowledge have 'been expanded and new ·ones created and at the same time the publications media have g~own immensely increasing the opportunity to know. Also do not fo~get that we are continually inundated with interpretations ·of the facts with whiCh we must concern ourselves.
All of this has a great impact on us teenagers, because our intellectual horizons are broadening and we often demand instant comprehension of concepts which are vast and intricate. When we have realized that this is not possi:b'Ie, we must resign ourselves to an important fact: that there is a certain amount of minimal ignorance in every person, proportionate to his I.Q. and capacity to consume fact. In other words, many things we C'an-
. not help not knowing. If we pursue an interest in one area, it is at the expense •of another.
However, and this fault lies with adults too, we are often tempted tp talk through our hats on a given subject with a few scraps of information and handfuls of cliches. No one likes to feel stupid, and in ow: eagerness to express ourselves we often go too far, albeit somewhat justifiably. For since the amount of knowledge required to disC'Uss something thoroughly is often staggering, we figure 'it best . to make use 'of whatever we have at hand, whether it be a one-sided argument, a third-hand quotation, a hackneyed epigram, a pilfered commentary, or a wild conje'Cture.
The problem, then, ' with modern conversati'on is · basica'liy that people either don't know what they're talking about or else. they play it safe with small talk. ~ut we are going to participate in many widely-ranging discussions in our lifetime, so we might as wen learn how to conduct ourselves in them. ·
First of all, common courtesy goes a long way in making one a go'od conversationalist. The qualities of tact, Chivalry, and restraint are always necessary. If we add to these an appreciat1on of our own scope and a determination not to I"amble beyond' it, we should begin to enj·oy. the values of verbal intercourse. Unpretentiousness is the keynote: take off that mask, be yourself, and talk with the attitude that, while speech may be free in this country, it is valuable enough to require of the speaker a certain standard of integrity.----Jay Harvey.

SttJierintendent of s~hools Dis~usses Flint Edu~ation
Lawrence L. Jarvie, the new superintendent of schools. has found that Flint has the advantage of unusual education· al resources available , a nd a corresponding problem of coordinating and mob I II zIng these resources.

" "There arc two things I miss about teaching in the schools - be ing in the classroom and say ing 'hc•llo' to fJf'OfJ if' In thr· ha lls ,' ' said Dr. Jarvie. who has !orm<'rly he ld pos ts which gave him lhls opportunity.

"You must have the fr·c ling that you're ma king a contribution for yourself and for ever ybody. This is thP hr>art of education.''
"I was attracted to Flint," said Dr. J arvie, "because It Is probably the only American city In which the Board o f Education Is basically rcspon· s iblc for a wide range of com· munity cultura l and education· a l activities." Besides the kin· dergarten- twel!th grade progrnm, he pointed out. the duties of his oll'lce extend Into the Junior College, Public Ll· brary, and the Motl Progra m.
One of the problems with which the public school super· intendent is always confronted is the "ma tte•· of developing a functional curriculum that can keep abreast of the tt·emcml· ous advances In huma n know). edge," which Dr. Jarvie rc· gards as a major problem In a ll education. He agreed that Innovations are being made even fas ter than textbooks can be written about them.

Bartz, Provan Probe Team Teaching Field
Mrs. Fredricka Bartz and Graham Provan are pioneering the idea of team teaching at Central In two consecutive hours of Englis.h and history ever y day.
Listed as Europea.'l history and Englis h VII on program cards, the class is designed to develop an appreciation of the rich heritage within our civil

Science Ends Jack Frost's Autumn Fable
One of the fables, appearing each f all, that has existed for many years is the one about Jack Frost. As young and old a like relate, Jack Frost and his magic 'brush paint the trees in a panorama of brilliant and fantastic colors, warning everyone of the approaching winter.
This legend, however, has now been branded by science as a natural phenomenon and has been explained logically and scientifically.
The array of spectacular · colors is due to the transfor· mation of the tree's starches from its leaves to it roots.
VVhen the starch leaves the leaf, it a lso takes the blu~ green coloring of the leaf, leaving a yellowish tint to the leaves. To further explain the brilliant red~, deep oranges, and purples, science states that acids from other cham~ icals which remain when the starch- flow of the leaf slows down, tint the leaves more deeply. ·
concentrati ng on ideas. trends. and movements.'' said ~lr. Provan.
After discussing the origin of history and what history is . the .'lext goal was to develop the main themes and com j:onents of \\' es tern ch·i!i zation before beg i n n i n g a study of the early ci\' ilizations.
In English. the first few days were spe.'lt discussing what the huma nities are. the human condit ions. a .general s urvey of comedy and tragedy. and the influence of one age on the next.
As for team teaching. Mrs. . Bartz commented, "I am very much in favor of it. as it gives the s tudent a be tter rounded program all together. He gets a more complete picture of the s ubject. This goes for team teaching in general."
"The major problem," she went on, "is getting together to plan material and a course of study, a..'ld then staying with the same s ubject matter at the same time. It requires a lot of planning."
One advantage in the course is that the class may meet with one teacher for two hours to catch up on material or to hear a speaker or see a program.
,on October 10, Miss Jacqueline Kramer, drama instructor, gave a ta lk on Greek Comedy. The followi.ng day, Miss Kra-mer's Drama I class presented a one-act Greek play about Hercules.
A regular speaker for the course is Andre Nitecl<:i. 'fror_n the Mott Library, who has eight planned lectures for the course on Western art.
. Mr. Provan commented, "It is hoped that this will be a basis for senior h o n o r s course." Mrs. Bartz added, "This is the kind of course for honor students and better. The material is too difficult for the average student, a nd only the better students could appreoi-
Even 'if the romance and flurry of Jack Frost's brush, busily at work .the :first night of frost, can be explained by cold, hard scientific facts, children and those with an ~magination will still see good ol' Jack Frost and his magic brush i.n . the beauty of the au-

Grand Rap~ids Hosts VisitingCheerleaders
Because cheerleaders are always searching for new ideas, Holly Montgomery, Vicki Tomaskovich, and Shirley Witherspoon, Varsity cheerleaders, attended a cheerleading clinic on October 13, sponsored by the Grand Rapids Junior College.
Nearly 900 girls represented about 100 different schools throughout the state. · All the girls w o r e their regulation cheerleading outfits, and the different colored outfits made a brilliant display In the gym. Many of the squads wore slacks or bermudas instead of the traditional skirts.
Dr. Newton Loken, National Authority on Cheerleading at the University of Michigan,
was the ma in speaker. E vents which composed the morning ' s activities included a talk on the r o I e of cheerleaders in school programs, sportsmanship, cheerlcading qua lifications , chcerleading techniques, pep rallies, s kits, songs a nd cha nts.
Va rious squads were selected from the bleachers to demons trate a favorite school cheer . Dr. Loken offered ti ps a nd comments concerning the executions.

Reliques Club Will Initiate November 6
In addition to teachers, ad· ministrative officials, mainte· nance men, and cafeteria workers, there is another group of workers employed by the Board of Education at Central. These are the stockroom work· ers for biology, chemistry, and physics classes.
There is generally one student worker for each class period of the three courses.
The students who work at these jobs usually have taken the course in which stockroom they are working, or are study· lng that subject at the time. They are chosen by the teach· ers of the three classes.
Chester Henry, who along . with J oseph Foos mans the chemistry department at Cen· tral, remarked, "The workers do not receive much pay ($.25 for each period they work) , but the experience gained is yaluable. The qualities we look
Card Section Tal~es Shape
Students wishing to participate in this year's Thanksgiv· ing Day card section can now sign up. , The place to sign up is outside the girls' gym during all lunch periods. Any student is eligible.
Barbara Lueck, senior, is in charge of the year's section, assisted by Margaret Steffie, junior. Bill Hershey, senior, is in charge of the row cap· tains.
· Those participating in this half-time card " show will \'fleet for a practice session. At this time members of the block section will receive wooden block "F" pins which will allow them to be part of that section at the Thanksgiving Day Game.
for in prospective workers can be summed up in two wordsintelligence and trustworth_i· ness."
It is the responsibility of these workers to assist in every way possible, the teachers with whom they work.
They must keep the equip· ment used in experiments and class work clean and ready for use, make sure materials for experiments are at hand, and also assign students equip· ment needed for their work.
Besides strengthening their pocketbooks by working in the stockrooms, the workers often get a chance to further their education.
For example, a person work· ing in the chemistry stockroom learns much about the preparation of certain. chen'li· cals for experiments by pre· paring the ingredients himself for his teachers.
All in all, working at this job offers a good chance to make a little money with the added attraction of gaining knowledge while doing it.
Reliques Club members interviewed prospective members at a meeting October 22 in room 244. The four new junior members are Peggy Hyslop, Jane McGrath, Debbie McLogan. and Bob Rathbun.
The initiation meeting will take place at Darr Johnson's home November 6. Tot a 1 membership of Reliques Club. after the intaking of four juniors, will be 19; 12 seniors and 7 juniors .
For a week following the 1 meeting the four initiat~s will wear an "R" signifying their induction into Reliques Club.
Later this fall Reliques Club will take in six sophomores. bringing the total membership to 25. Any sophomore who is in one of Jack Howe's history classes is eligible for membership at that time.

Librarian Balances Books Mrs. Marlon McCrady, our
s c h o o 1 librarian, performs many tasks to make the li· brary useful and helpful to the students. Among her jobs is the selecting and ordering of books .
So far this year she has ordered about 150 books, and by the end of the school year she will have ordered about four hundred, as that is the average per year.
She selects the books with recommendations from teachers and .orders a few books each week during the school year.
The Boa,rd of Education provides m o n e y for the books from the school budget.
Mrs. McCrady buys one to take its place. It may be either the same publication or a newer one with better in- 1
formation on the same topic.

the American Field Association, founded in 1940 by Marshall Field ill, was based on an essay centered on the idea of what the contestant felt he could do to promote international undc.>rstanding.
The outcome of this project was the boarding of a ship scheduled for Scandinavian, Asian, and European countries by 750 high school. students.

Tucked away in a little nook of Central's basement, the print shop busily turns its presses. In spite of its rather hidden location and its lack of publicity, the printing class is very important.
It is responsible for turning out some of the most necessary items in the hustle and bustle of a normal school day. One such item is class schedule change slips. Others are corrirlor permits and the decorative rrograms used at the school plays.
They do not print the school nl!wspaper because the print· ing presses are not adequate
,
to handle a job of this size. There are only three press
es, and they have been here since Central was built in 1923.
Lee Sherman, print shop instructor, teaches two classes, advanced and beginning. The advanced class does the actual printing, while the beginning class learns basic printing procedures.
Some of the students are placed in jobs with local print shops, but the class does not guarantee this. Because one trained person can run several presses, the demand for skilled persons in this field is not too great.
When Mrs. McCrady removes a book from our library, she takes it to the main library. One of the li·
. brarlans there places it on a shelf.
When other librarians visit the main library, they look 'over the books on this shelf. If they see a book they believe would be useful in their library, they take it.
When someone loses a book,
There will be a work period from 10:00 a.m. to 12 noon, the auto show from 12 noon to 1:00 p.m., and the afternoon work period from 1 to 3:00 p.m.
A Studebaker A vanti, a new sports car, and a new sports car, and a new Buick are the cars tne group hopes to obtain for this event.
On what the boys hoped to do at the show, Charles Clark, club sponsor, commented, "We will give the cars a good look· ing over and examine their new features."

Clubs Plan Activities, Decide on Standards
Future Nurses' Club sponsor, Cornelia Van Doorn, discuss· ed the requirements for eligibility at the last meeting . of the club, October 17. In the past it has been possible to be a m.ember of the Future Nurses' Club if you had a C + average or better, but the requirement has now been raised to a B average.
Central's Future Nurses are looking forward to receiving a handbook now in preparation. This handbook will contain information on requirements , dues, attendance, and apparel while working in the hospital. Activities of the Future Nurses and their duties while assisting in the hospitals will also be included.
Elections resulted in the following new officers : President, Fr.J.!1cine Elzy; vice-president, Kathy Smith; secretary, Julie Lazar; and treasurer, Vicky Piechocinski.
An announcement was also made that St. Joseph Hospital is hav~g an open house on December 5. All interested In attending are asked to contact Miss Van Doorn. ·

Tenth g ra de strongmen are Bill Austin, Tom Bottrell, Bob Da rnton, a nd Gary Haggart.

1 City Relays late in November will be the first swim meet of the year.
Central's strongest competi· tion is expected t o come from last year 's Saginaw Valley runner -up ... . . . Northern, who has almost all r eturning lettermen.
Potter Sets Strong Pace
Inexperience has embedded a large gap in the success of Centra l's Cross Country squad.
The lack of a ge is a · f actor readily seen by the
presence of four sophomores, two juniors, and only one senior on the ·Varsity team . This is . unusua l, indeed.
Barry Potter is .the one senior veteran, and has been a cons tant source of light amidst the fog. His dedication has been s trong throughout his three years . Many times, during holidays or summer· time leisure, Barry has been seen running on the track, s triv ing for t::ersonal improve· ment.
His dedication has reaped large benefits. Even in Central's losing efforts, he's placed f irs t , second, or third in ever y m eet. He broke the Mid· land field r ecord by taking firs t in tha t triangular meet. He also owns another f i r s t
• place, a seco.nd spot, and two third place finishes. His second was placed in the Valley meet.
The remainder of the squad, though inexperienced, shows great promise for next year . It is conceivable tha t the next two years should be s trong ones for the harrier s - Alan Smith a.nd S teve Walker have done a good job, and could be fine senior leaders next year .
The sophomores, led by young Dick Potter, a re cer tainly doing well, considering they are running against .... boys several years older . Besides Dick Potter, who broke the eleven-minute timing, these include Gordon Andrews, Eugene Cooper a nd P a:t Kirby.

After their victories over Bay City Centra l, Saginaw Arthur Hill, Pontiac, Southwes tern, a nd Northern, only two teams block their path to a,., undefeated season.
Their next two encounters with Bay City Ha ndy and Saginaw hold the key. It's a f eather in any team's cap that halts an undefeated team a nd the boys can't afford to le t up.
Coaches Dave Brines' and J ack Ewing's squad have featured striking power (184 points, . 36.8 scoring a verage)
· and a stingy defense which has allowed only 24 points to fash· ion their impressive record.

Strong Performers Bolster Line
Ends Feature Depth; Depro Mans Center
Strength at one position is always a valuable asset to a football team. · Head Football Coach Bob Leach has one of these assets in his ends.
In addition to returning lettermen seniors Bob Langenau and Dick Beal and junior Mel Summers, Leach hes at least five other solid performers at this position.
Langenau and Summers have gone both ways at the line's extremities in all but one game this year. In the Bay City Central encounter Summers was injured and Senior Bob Schmelzer · on o~ense and junior Jim Richards on defense s~;elled him. ·
In addition to his strong, steady play at end, Langenau also is responsible for all Tribe kicking chores.
Summers, an exceedingly strong athlete, blocks well and his more than adequate defensive play leaves little to be desired. He proved his fine pass catching ability in the Midland game by pulling in five tosses, good for 103 yards.
Besides Richards and Schmelzer, senior Leroy Washing· ton and juniors Glen Bivins and Jim Anderson are other strong reserves, ready to step in If opportunity presents itself.
All in all, Leach stated, "This is the finest group of ends we've ever had."
* * • • To say Captain Mike Der.ro has been a mainstay at center
would be putting it mildly. His early-soiled uniform in each game tells the story of De9ro's hard play.
Depro, who did not receive his first relief of the year until the Sagfnaw Arthur Hill game cf October 12, is regarded by Leach as "one of the finest centers we've ever had" and as a "silent leader who leads by example."
His strong defensive play at linebacker puts Depro in a class with former ·central great Jim Copeland who was co-captain of the 1960 Central team.
Behind Depro is hard working junior John Euflnger. End and center have been strong positions for the Tribe
this season. With their fine personnel and excellent coaching from End Coach Carl Krieger and Center and Linebacker Coach Dean Ludwig they should continue to be.

Can Gridders Get Together? B. C. Handy May Tell Story
Marriage and football have little in common. There Is, however, one trait which Is requisite if two people bound by matrimony or the offensive and defensive squads of a football team hope to meet with success. This Indispensable ingredient is togetherness. ,
Possibly a shot of "'togetherness serum" would be of aid to Central's football team which currently sports a 2·2-1 Saginaw Valley mark.
In only two games this year have the defensive and offensive units of the Tribe grid machine worked equally well. During the first part of the season, the defense seemed ample but the offense was of. ten unable to get off Its fee t. Jn the Midland game of October 19, the Indian offense fi nally opened up only to be let down by the defense. Tonight'~ 8 :00 p.m. ba ttle
with Bay City Handy, defending state champion, at Bay City wilJ demand that the Tribe add another to its list of games in which both offense and defense click.
In the Southwestern game of September 21 and the Saginaw Arthur Hill encounter of October 13, both units performed well simultaneously.
IN BOTH CONTESTS Cen-
tral gridders scored three touchdowns while a llowing only one.
Against Arthur Hill quarter · back Bob Holec made his firs t splash 1n the s tarting line-up a big one. He completed two of three passes, good for 3x yards, and his well timed la ter al to Sherm Wall ace at th <> Hilite 's 43 yard s tripe in the fourth quarter broke the s leek halfback a way for a touchdown ru·1.
Probably the best exa mple of a good defense - poor offense s howl :-> tr came in the P :m tiac conte:,t of September H. Trib~ defenders were ou!stan rling ll" holrling P ontiac to ~ev. en pvints but Pontiac tackler-; proved jus t as valuabl~ ir. holding t~e Ind ia ns to the sa me score.

Bob Leach. head grid mentor, commenting on this contest, rema rked, "A few major hrcakdowns on defense, untimely fumbl es, a nd three l 5 yard pena lt ies hurt us greatly in this game."
The passing of senior J on Skinner and Holec were the big g uns as Indian o.Uensive hraves went on the wa rpa th in this contl!s t. Skinner comple ted six o f e ight pac;ses for 57 yards w hile B oice's th r<.-e for !>iX tossing was good C0r ~:> 1 markers.
Senior fullback Marvin Ma· bry's 60 yards in s ix carries was another reason for the offensive ups urge In the :'vfidlancl encounter.
