Five teachers leaving Central next year It will be Central's loss and other communi

reasons." She plans to return to teaching after her health improves.
Mr. Bobby Lowery, an American Government teacher, plans to "obtain more educational degrees" so that he may get in a position where he can "truly aid the student without losing myself to other priorities."
Miss Jeanette Stroberg, a Business Education teacher, is getting married over the summer and is moving to Huchinson, Kansas. There, she will return to teaching; this time at a Junior College in Huchinson. Mr. Randy Marymee will also be leaving the Central staff this year.
Mrs. Judy Flynn, an English teacher, is leaving Omaha due to her husband's transfer to another city. She hopes to "return to teaching as soon as things get settled."
The art department will be losing an eleven year faculty member, Mrs. Doris Lewis. Mrs. Lewis is taking a leave of absence for "health
The teachers all commented that they had enjoyed working at Central. "You don't find many schools with as wide a diversity of students than at Central," one teacher said. "I feel as though I have learned as much from the students as I hope I have taught them," said another.
Job applications tricky by Mike Wise
Now is the time for all good Central students to find someone to come to their aid by hiring them for the summer. As the school year ends, many Central students find themselves "poundIng the 01' pavement," in search of a job. . To help those students still looking for jobs, we have pub-
lished t~h typical job application, complete with helpful hints. Name: Don't be too confident, the questions get harder. Address and phone: If you're "in transit," make something up. Position desired: Start low; work your way up from vice-
president. Reasons for applying: Whatever you do, don't say "because I
need the bread"-especially if you're applying at a bakery. References: This is the tricky part. Send away to one of
t~ose mail-order photo firms of questionable reputation. These firms are the kind that will print up a mock issue of the New York Times with your picture on the front page. When the personnel manager comes to pick up your application, carelessly flip the paper in his face. Vl'ry impressive.
Jerabek receives PTSA membership
Two PTSA State Life-Mem
berships were awarded at the
unit meeting of the Central
PTSA which was held on May
10. They were awarded to Miss
Verona Jerabek and Mr. Wil
liam McGonagle.
Miss Jerabek has taught in
the social studies department at
Central for 25 years and has
belonged to the PTSA for the
same number of years. Miss
Jerabek said that she was sur
prised to receive the award.
The other recipient, Mr. Mc
Gonagle, is the director of Jos
lyn Art Museum.

Previous employment: This is also tricky since your future empl oyer may wish to contact your previous employers. However, you w~nt to convince your future employer that he'll be getting a ~ kllled, experienced worker. Therefore, you should write something like NEUROSURGEON _ K a mchitl<a. Alaska. This guarantees a goood reference, beside5 insuring the impo~sibility of your employer authenticating the reference.
The r est should be easy. (They'll be tremendously impressed \\"I~en you list Central as your alma mater.) Good luck and if things seem impossible, remember the advice of that great American businessman, Horace Greeley, "Go west, young man."
Register and O-Book get new staffs for next year
Study halls may be open for seniors
Architects win many awards Several Central High students
carried away numerous honors at the Metropolitan Omaha ~uildin~ Assoc iation competition which was held on Monday, May 15 at Bryan High School.
Because of Central's outstanding showing they received ~he All-City Cup. If the trophy IS won three years in succession Central will then be able to retain the trophy.
The first category in which three Central students took honors was the Working Drawing division. This category shows the detailed house and the p'lans used by the contractor to build it. Jim McWilliams, a junior, took first place in this division. He received a $350 scholarship.
Second place honors was won by Ricki Cunningham, another juni:>r. He will receive a $250 scholarship. Mark Tsuji, who is
also a junior, won fifth place. With so many juniors winning scholarships there is a good chance of winning the All-City Cup next year also. .
The Presentation Drawings for a small residence was the second category of competition. These drawings showed a floor plan, plot plan, wall sections, and a rendering of the house. The floor plan of the house could be no larger than 1500 sq. ft. In this division Mark Sanford took third place and won a $100 scholarship. Ricki Cunningham again placed in competition with a fifth place.
The third, and final category, was the Presentation Drawings of large residence. This division has the same requirements as category two, except the house must cover 4,000 sq. ft. Pat Ragole placed third.

Kathy and other members of the vearbook staff a re planning a vi'sit to the American Yearbook Company in Topeka, Kansas, this summer.
Seniors may have the pnVl
lege of open study halls next
year. The idea of open study
halls was introduced by Richard Caniglia to the PTSA, which is very much in favor of them. Then the issue was taken to the Student Assembly, where the plans have been worked out.
"Tentatively this is a pilot program f.or all seniors, regardless of grades," said Richard. Volunteer t eachers will be there to make sure there are no extreme problems. The study halls will be every hour but fifth. Students can go to the library, a teacher's room, or their open study hall , but they must be there when the bell rings.
The open study hall "lounge" will be in the cafeteria. "Students are looking for more freedom. They will be able to talk and move about or study in groups," said Mr. Atley Wedemeyer, one of the Student Assembly advisors.
The main problem is space. "Next year the school enrollment may increase," said Mr. Wedemeyer. Richard said that two or three hundred students per period in the open study halls are anticipated. Dr. MoIler likes the concept of open study halls very much.

Cold summer for students As summer approaches many
young people are planning how to USe their vacations; Randy Mohr and Joe Markuson will be looking forward to six weeks of hard work in Alaska.
Randy and Joe will join 10 other young people from a three state area to help a Presbyterian mission station in Fairbanks.
The 9,500 mile journey begins July 9 in Cedar Bluffs, Nebraska. Specially equipped trucks will take the group through four states and five
Canadian Provinces. It includes the use of a DC-3 airplane and four ocean going ferry boats.
The volunteers will be working at Presbyterian Hospitality House, Fairbanks, a church sponsored home for Eskimo and Indian girls. The planned work for the team is to spray paint the outside of the log building and do some interior painting. The group· hopes to build picnic tables, fire places, a badminton court, and other recreational equipment to complete a recreation area started by last year's team.
'Charlie Brown' appears at Old Market The play, "You're a Good
Man Charlie Brown," which was held in the Central auditorium May 4, and 6, presented five performances at Satan's Pizza Parl·or, in the Old Market Thursuay, Friday, and Satur~ day, May 11, 1'2, and 13.
Opening night many Central High teachers welcomed the cast in their debut. A second performance was planned, but cancelled, as only three tickets were purchased. A refund was offered to the ticket holders, but they refused and attended the next evening show.
The first performance Fri-
day night was at 7:30 p.m. The late show audience consisted mostly of Central students who had attended the Central Spring Band Concert earlier that evening. .A warm standing ovation was received by the cast. During the two Saturday night performances only reserved seat tickets were sold. Standing ovations followed each show.
Satan's owner, PaUl Renard, was pleased with the business the show brought into the establishment. He asked to have the show held over, but conflicts made it impossible for the members to do so.

Four CHS students attend YMCA lunch
Rodger Bellows, Leslie Ep

Naughtin recently attended the
annual Omaha YMCA luncheon. Several Omaha high schools were invited to send interested students free of cost.
Mr. Richard Byers, a Central counselor who accompanied the students, said the four were chosen "because of their interests in social work."
The meeting featured youths who had been helped by the YMCA's expanded program. In addition to recreation, it now includes youth counselors, a runaway house, job counseling, family guidance, a new camp and a special program for Indian families.
The luncheon was held May 11, in the Hilton Hotel ballroom.

Track team finishes fourth in State Central's track team reached
new heig-hts, last Saturday, with a respectable fourth place finish in the Nebraska Track and Field Championships held at Burke High.
The Eagles, behind second place performances in the long jump and triple jump by Mike Sims and Larry Hunter, finished just six points behind state champion Grand Island. The 880 yard relay team consisting of Dave Hill, Neil Greenberg, Doug Aken, and Darrell Russel also came in second.
Other point-winning performances included Dave Hill's third place finish in the 100 yard dash, Larry Irwin's fourth place in the mile, and Doug Aken's fifth place in the 180 ya rd low hurdles.
Points w~re determined on a six points for first place, four points for second, three points for third, two points for f.ourth, and one point for fifth basis. Central finished with a total of eighteen points.
Ironically, both Hunter and Sims finished second to double gold medal winner Steve Brittenham of Lincoln Southeast. Central's balance was reflected by the fact that they were the only school in the top eleven that did not have a first place Photo by Wiesman

Girls' tennis ends Central's Girl's Tennis team ended a successful season with
the recent Metr·o Tournament. Their season record was three wins and two losses.
·The girls defeated Bryan, Northwest and South High School, while they lost to AL and TJ. '
"We we·re extremely successful against Omaha schools but were outclassed by Council Bluffs schools_ Council Bluff schools however, have had more experience in girl's sports," commented Coach John Talty_
In the Metro Tournament, the doubles team of Tina Krolikowski and Carol Gasperson were defeated in the first round. However, in the singles competition Donna Mosiman went to the semi-finals. but was defeated by the Metro champion_
Players undecided Where aU of our graduating senior basketball players are
going to school is unknown to me_ Last time I tried to find out I found that most of them don't know themselves. The one thing I do know is that UNO and several junior colleges are interested in most of the senior players. Kevin Kresl has received scholarship offers from St_ Benedicts and Bellevue college. Tim Williams h'a s received an offer from Platte junior college of N ebraska.
The person who has been given the most attention by the colleges is junior Dennis Forrest. He has received mail from many large schools including Dayton and Missouri.

tel's of the art of frisbie throwing.
Why do these people sacrifice their lunch hour and time before school to throw a frisbie back and forth, back and forth?
"It exercises my wrist, and there's nothing to do in the morning," said Dwayne Johnson.
Jim Harrold commented, "I just came out here, and they were throwing them. I was going to study, but . . . ."
Joe Markuson replied, "I take
all my hate out on it."
Other comments were, "It turns me on," "It's something to do." "I'm just an innocent bystander," and "It's fun." Many said that they enjoyed aiming for windows and doors when they threw the frisbie.
Regardless of the reason, one certainly takes his life in his hands when walking through Central courtyard. So next time you're passing through, be aware of the flying saucers, and keep your head down.
Golf team defeats AL The Central High varsity golf t eam, despite disappointing
finishes in the Metro and District Championships, tied Prep and Benson for their division title with a victory over Abraham Lincoln on Thursday, May 18.
Central finished in fifth place in the Metro Championship held May 4, which was won by Westside. Dave Olsen led the Eagles with a 79, and was followed by Don Taute's 82.
The Eagles finished in fourth place in the District 3 championship, behind Westside, Bellevue, and Prep. Unfortunately, only the top three teams qualify for the state meet. Dave Olsen won a playoff with Westside's Joe Sloan, which enabled Olsen to finish third in the individual medalist play.

Checkless society made possible A checkless, cashless society was the topic of a lecture and
demonstration presented to General Business and Bookkeeping classes.
Mr. Gary Petri and Mr. Lou Mitera, systems analysts from Northwestern Bell, presented the program to second, third and fourth hour classes, May 12.
The Northwestern Bell representatives demonstrated how check writbg may become Oobsolete in a few years. Future check. writing could be carTied out through the use of computers and touch-tone telephones.
The representatives demonstrated the new system by using a "Card Dialer" telephone and a HOneywell 1250 computer housed in the Northwestern Bell Offices. The card dialer telephone dials numbers thrOough the insertion of a pre-punched plastic card or through touch-tone dialing.
This opens a prOogram at the computer. The person "writing" a check then has access to his account. He then states the person to whom the check is made out to and the amount by touch-tone phone 001' pre-punched cards.
The computer, which in actual use would be located at a bank, would then automatically transfer funds from the check-writer's account to the creditor. The computer then "tells" the eheckwriter the amount remaining in his acoount. An advantage to this system is that the computer prevents the writing of checks on insufficient funds.
Mr. Petri said that some of the advaIlltages to a check~ess society include less chance of theft, forgery, and loss in handling checks. Another advantage would be increased efficiency through this computer-centered system.
In the checkless society each "check" would be processed in less time than it takes now and at half the present cost.
Bart Lambert was recently proclaimed valedictorian of the Senior Class. This honor is bestowed annually upon the member of the senior class that possesses the highest grade point average.
Upon learning that he had been named class valedictorian Bart commented, "I feel extremely honored to be the valedictorian of the senior class and also somewhat surprised, because of the high number of excellent students that are in this year's class."
Bart is the only student at Central to be carrying four advanced placement courses on his schedule. When asked about the amount of time that he has put into. his studies, he rePlied, "Of oourse I have had to work hard, but I have always tried to maintain a balance between school and extra-curricular activities."
Bart went on to comment on his past three years at Central. "Thinking back, I think one thing that I really thought ought to be changed was the sh'ucture of many courses, from the teaching of specific facts to mOl'e general concepts, in other words, to place more of the emphasis of learning upon the student, with the teacher acting as a guide.
"I think my mOost rewarding activity at Central has been my participation within the schOool's music program. Those courses that I have taken have opened up the field of music to me and I hOope to continue work in music in the future ."
Bart later spoke on the issue of scheduling changes at Central, "I personally would prefer being under a system of modular scheduling, but I don't think that Central has the facilities f Ool' any such drastic change with its basic scheduling system."
Math Olympiad test 'HILNC gets puzzles Denenberg
"It was the most gruesome test I've ever seen," said Larry
Denenberg after taking the
First USA Mathematics Olym-piad. Larry took the test on
May 9 along with one hundred other students in the country.
The students who took the test were the high-scorers frOom the M.A.A. exam.
The test lasted three hours and consisted of five questions.
Larry gOot the answers to two, a partial solution to one, and out
lined a plan of attack for an
other. Partial credit is given for unfinished problems.
The results of the test will be at Central at the end of the
month. The top eight scorers will be flown to a banquet in their honor.
This is the problem that Larry did not get; anything on: A given tetrahedron ABCD is isosceles, that is AB=CD, AC=BD, and AD=BC. Show that the faces of the tetrahedron are acute-angled triangles. Larry commented, "If anyone can solve that one I'll kill him."
The trailer that is presently sitting on the North side of the building is the new classroom fOor the High Intensity Learning Center (IDLNC) reading program.
Starting next year, all HILNC classes will move from their present positiOon of a corner of room 145 to the specially designed trailer.
According to Mr. Robert Nelson, instructor for the course, the new trailer will have rOoom for 25-30 people which will en- , able more people to take the class. Some of the features of the trailer include two poetry corners, eight listening stations, bookshelves, and the availabiHty of eleven cassette recorders. The traaler will be CM'
