Senior Class Plans Her G d · NEW CONCERT BAND ra uatIon AIM "BETTER MUSIC"

Wouldn 't it be great to be the only senior in a whole h igh school, to choose you r own class motto, write your own son g, pick out your own party, and get yo ur diploma two months ahead of time? Impossible, you g rin . But s uch is the case of Edith Margal'et McIntosh, Seward hig h school, Seward, Alaska.

he wrote her own class motto , and a good one it is: "Rowing , Not Drifting. " The class song will be writte n and sung by h erself; and in oth er words, she is the "whole che se."

Besides bein g th e senior class,

Edith is business manager of Sew­

ard 's "Folly," the paper which t he

Seward high school puts out, and

f1'om which t~e foregoing is gl aned .

Edith 's d iploma has a lready ar­rived in Seward, a lthl>u gh she will not formally graduate v - til J une. The reason for the d esired docu­ment 's premature arrival is t h at it usually A1kes such a long time for commodities to get to Alaska that the senior class thought it bes t to "send early and avoid the rush."

Central ' s first concert band was organi zed at a m eting last Wednes­day by students musically inclin d for the purpose of stimu lating in terest in better music. The band will be directed by Rollin Barnes, Captain of the r egiment band, and will be under the supervision of Mr. Cox. It will undoubtedly become one of the strongest of Central's m usical factors.

At present the band consists of boys only. Practice will be 011 nOll­drill nights. A radio concert is be­ing planned.

A GENTLE REMINDER

We have it at last--the green campus. With it, Central is justified in claiming to be one of the most beautiful spots in Omaha, and indeed, the country. Yet we cannot expect lovely grounds if they are not cared for. Wall{s and steps are provided for all walking purposes. "Keep off" signs are used plentifully. Yet a few people do not seem to be able to restrain their impulse to walk on the grass.

It is our duty to obey the rules of the school. We can all be self-appointed guardians of the campus, and see to it that we don't violate the unwritten law regarding it. People who cannot curb their playful tendencies must have their playgrounds else­where. If not, the grounds will present a sad appearance. A maze of crooked, brown paths winding through the green is surely far from beautiful!

Give the grass a chance!

A SLOGAN FOR CENTRAL

"The catch-phrase is almighty, . and the sloganeer is its prophet." In the middle ages, the original of this paraphrased slogan led Mohammedan hordes to victory against militant Europe, As the world has become more civilized, the sloganeer has become more numerous. Modern advel,tising is the blazoning of collec­tively, assonantly, alliteratively appropriate words.

By choosing an official school slogan, Central can lead the field. Although every high school has some substitute, ,few, if any, high schools have individual, recognized slogans. A snappy school slogan stimulates school spirit. Word' of mouth, the best form of adveI'tising, will circulate far and wide not only our school slogan, but also the name of Central.

Some would suggest we adopt "Beat Tech;" othel's advocate "The School on the Hill." What do you sugg·est? A little serious thought on a school slogan will accomplish something.
