    The Central High School Hall of Fame welcomed a new member at Friday night’s home football game.  Harry Breeden, Sr. was a 1949 CHS graduate, was the all-district and all-state “big man” who anchored both offensive and defensive lines on the first ever Wildcat football team.  After graduation, Harry went on to become the first CHS player to earn a football scholarship to LSU. 
    Once his playing days were over, Harry worked for Gulf States Utilities for 42 years, raised his family, and served as a deacon for Zoar Baptist Church. This beloved “Central boy” passed away in 2009 at the age of 77.
