Tales Out of School By Nancy Falk Judy Aizofon Mumford High Central High Mumford halls this week are teeming with students wearing everything from old "Ike" but- tons, covered with their candi- date's name, of course, to girls with long bows hanging from their hair. The reason?—the stu- dent council election on Mon- day! They had an additional chance to campaign at the ral- lies last • Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. The council will be selling car plates that fit on top of your license saying "Mumford High School" some time in the near future. The money that they collect will help pay for our much needed band uni- forms. Several clubs have al- ready had fund raising proj- ects for this, and more clubs will do so in the future. If you see or hear of these, please try to support them. The Drama Club entertained the Parent's Club last Tuesday by presenting three excellent skits. A Hollywood talent scount should have been in the audi- ence as their performance was almost professional. The Mer- cury will soon come out with a Christmas edition which should be terrific! The Capri staff finally finished taking pictures and the best ones will go in the yearbook that comes out in June. We are all looking forward to seeing it. A Christmas concert was given at the Mayflower Church by the orchestra and singing groups on Wednesday night. The perform- ance was excellent and was en- joyed by everyone who attended.

The alumni classes of 1944, January and June classes, held a square dance at Carpenters Hall last month and are presenting Miss Robinson, C e ntral's principal, with a check of $250, to be used for two scholarships to Wayne. One is to be awarded to a Jan- uary graduate and one to a June graduate. Those serving on the 1944 class committee were: Sol Iwrey, Phyllis Rosenberg, Paul, Judith and Jerry Sillman, Edith Fein- berg Resnick, Connie Levine Ad- ler, Arlene Karbal Mehler, Lil- lian Taylor Cohen, Levona Levy Steingold, Lee Wenokur, Leonore Leff Braude and Shirley Rappa- port. The graduating classes of 1954 would like to take this oppor- tunity to thank you! The swimming classes were visited last month by a well- known sports figure. In fact, most of the swimmers still don't know who their instructor was that day. Well, he was Don Lund, .Tiger outfielder. Don works as a substitute gym teacher during the winter months. Birger Bakke, sponsor of the Central Student and Centralite, spoke at the eighth annual high school press conference at Wayne University. Editors of the newspapers and yearbooks from many high schbols in the area attended. Central student editors there were Elaine Ma- dorsky, Gail Smolinsky, Larry Poder, Bob Brent and Carolyn Scott while Faith Greenbaum, editor-in-chief, represented the. Centralite. Central is proud to announce the inauguration of its first cit- izenship recognition plan. Stu- dent winners will receive citi- zenship honors at a convocation program on January 20. Parents will be invited. Those planning to qualify for these awards must fill out cards and return them to the Student Council office not later than today.
