Notes from
Central

The junior class of Central has
announced the annual Junior Senior
banquet, to be held Friday, May 81,
in the Barbara Worth hotel.
The banquet is an old custom at
Central, the purpose being to honor
the departing Seniors in a manner
fitting to the occasion.
With the Home Rooms conducting
the voting, the entire student body
was asked to voice their opinion
on the issue of shortening the school
day for the remainder of the school
year.
The Administration has suggest
ed that for the remainder of the
current term, since the weather is
quite warm, the day begin at 8 am.
and close at 2:20 pm. The students
were asked to signify their approval
or disapproval of this plan. If a
majority of the student body desires
a change, the new time will go into
effect next week.
