Round two of > contests for Cen-1 tralites up this weekend," as the senior band and chorus travel to Greentown to compete in the district! NISBOVA con-| tests. Central is| still holding her

breath, so to speak, over the results of the district achievement contests Saturday, for official results — along with invitations to the state, it’s hoped — will arrive in about two weeks from Indiana University. In the meantime, let’s look in the nearer future. . . —A.C.H.S.Final practices with bandmaster Don Gerig have the “marching sixty-five” and the sixty-voice chorus on their toes this week; now only one day remains until "C” (contest) day, Saturday. Then three busses will leave a J 8; 45. with band members, while one* bus-load of the chorus members

who are not in band will leave at 12:30 p.m., headed for Greentown. Stage time for the band is 12:20 and for the chorus, 3:45. This year the groups will be trying to top their 1956 rating. Evidence of tlreir success last spring are in the trophy case: two plaques marked excellent. The next and highest step, superior, is reserved for the groups invited to the state contest' at Knox, April 13. Central’s hoping to hear just this next Monday during morning announcements; that her band and chorus have surpassed their record and are on to the state, so — music department, good luck! —A.C.H.S.— Pictures agarur — to boost the band and chorus contest hopes and to pay tribute to all music department activities have done for Central, the Greyhound Gazette has dedicated tomorrow’s issue to “Music at Central.” The four-page edition, keyed up news-wise and feature-wise to music, will spotlight the band and chorus and their , director on the front page, in pictures. The staff hopes that Centralites will enjoy this second issue-

with-pictures as muchas they did the “tourney issue.” If it is well received again, Central can look for more lithographed pictures in theif weekly newspaper! —A.C.H.S.— Verbal locks are tightening about "Reserve Two For Murder.” The surprise element of the play is being closely guarded; the mysterious looks on the juniors* faces are complemented with a smug, satisfied air; therefore, this week ! s conclusion about the spring play is that the practices must be going along well. What is there to do, then, but wait? Tickets have gone on sale for the April 5 production, at 50 cents each. And know what? They seem to be going for it won’t be long now. - A.C.H.S.— Track season will open this afternoon with the realization of a long-awaited first at Central; the first official meet on Adams Central’s own track. The story behind the dream has been told, so let's get down to this afternoon’s picture. There will be 30 Central cindermen dressing for the tri-meet with Berne and Rockcreek. Among these are the following returning lettermen: sophomores Alan Habegger and Tom Heyerly, juniors Phil Barger and Gap' McMillen, and seniors Ron Corson, Jim Steiner, and Dave Smith. Not much remains to be said, but this to the fans: hope to see you there — and at many more of this spring's Central meets! and to the tracksters: do your best for Central this season and she’ll be proud of you. . . . —A.C.H.S.— Perhaps not quite all the story has been told of the track, even yet. With their exhibition on the high bars, trampoline and side horse, and some free calisthenics, nine boys and five girls of the Ball State gymnastic team entertained Central track boosters and all athletic fans Thursday, in their show of this interesting type of athletics. The Ball State troupe’s appearance, besides promoting interest in the athletics that deserve more fans, helped along with the Central track, by raising the track fund. —A.C.H.S.— Sophomore stationery sales reaped $741.20, as Friday’s lastdry totals were added up. Leading in sales of the personalized stationery, cards, napkins, and envelopes were the 20 sophs captained by Max Egley. Their team brought in $420.30 while the runners-up, under the piloting of Shirley Osterman, sold $320.90 worth. Class sponsors Miss Imogene Beihold and Mrs. Pete Ellis assisted the tenth graders in checking and sending orders, etc., in the class’ first big money-making project for their senior year. Their commission of 30% will give the sophomore about $225. —A.C.H.S.— Five crisp two-dollar bills were the prizes the Centralettes — Marcia and Irene Merriman and Chloe and Wanda Neuenschwander and accompahist Alice Beer won Friday evening in the talent show at Chester Center high school in Wells county. For the ten-dollar prize, the group placed second out of 29 entries. The contest was sponsored by the senior of Chester Center high. To the Centralettes, from Central — congratulations! —A.C.H.S.— "Freshmen Times” is the name of this year’s ninth graders* English project — the freshman newspaper. Lois SteuTy is the editor and helping her will be assistant editors -Delora Mishler and Loren Habegger, News editors are Jeannie Smith and Jim Brown. Ron Maines serves as sports editor, and his assistant is Larry Foreman. Writing news for the various defour things the Bible tells are
