Speaking of eyefuls, just
take a peep irto ar.y of
the lockers lining the
halls upstairs. They seem
to bo a combin’atron of
art gallery, secret cham
ber, clothes closet, and
book case.
They bulge, they overflo\^
they tell a wholQ story of
the owner. A mere glimpse
reveals chewi'^g gum wrr^p-
pers, orange peels, base
ball suits, coats a«d caps
of unusual descriptions,
waste paper, pictures of
those sY/oon croonies. Van
Johnson, and Peter Lav/ford,
and, buried among all this
conglomeratic'^, books.
’»7hat a frantic search en
sues between classes as
the pupils turn the lock
ers upside-down in search
of the book for the next
class.
If these lockers are a
specimen of tho owners’
housekeeping, beivarc boys
arid girls !

For Nickname
George Washington got his
nickname, "Honest George",
because of his truthful
ness in confessing that he
cut down his father’s
cherry tree. Bobby Lee
Finch, Junior, received

from ^ true experience,
also. Trimming a tree as
his father told him,

SNATCHES
Seen licking a sucker,Mrs,
Lassiter was approached by
her daughter Sue. Sue mer
rily tripped towards her
mother ard took the sucker
from her; then, she proceed
ed 0*^ h..;.r way.
IVhat a 200d beauty parlor
the home economics room
makes. There are always a
bunch of girls from each
grade standing patie.»^tly
in line gabbing, awaiting
their turn for primping.
The library has been de-
signatdd as the rain^ day
hangout during lunch hour,
particularly for the sen
ior and junior boys.
Bobby Glover,Billy Murray,
Sue Lassiter, Billy Horner,
Jean Brantley, and toxiao
Medlin are usually found
waiting until about thirty
seconds before the bell to
go to the fountain. The
bell rings. Down the hall
they dash, slip into tho
classroom stealthily, and
sit down out of breath.
Friendliness up and dov/n
the hall is being overstep**
ped by a number of stu^
dents. Thi, girls aren’t de
manding that the boys show
the proper respect toward
them.
Remark heard: Bobby Ray
MeacOiP.es: "Look at all
those bags of potatoes !
Um-m-m. Let me slip by or
else I'll certainly have
to carry up a sack." Stu
dents arc often stopped to
carry up supplies to the
lunchroom.
B, Eatmon
for Orphoin
George Joh’^son Lassiter
is soon to bccome an
orphan unless someone
comes to his rescue, for
his guardians will soon be
leaving for their homes.
A glimpse of a tear is
seen in Sue Lassiter's
eyes when she speaks of
the day; "George is so
human th&t it vfj.ll be next
to separating from Jac
queline", declares Sue.
(Wc believe this is adver
tising propaganda on the
part of Sue in hopes that
a good home will be found
for George)
According to Miss V/ilma
Johnson, two of George's
human qualities are stub-
borness, which he shows
when she tries to send him
home or give him a bath,
and jealousy, shown when
she pots his playmates.
George spends his time as
she does when she is at
the dormitory states Sue;
but whilo she is at school,
George, child like, averts
loneliness by going in
search of companionship.
As a result he is most
often found visiting with
Zip Farmer.
But school c1osing,George
coraes bourcing,barking,and
wagging his tail in greet
ing to Sue or Miss Johnson.
"See,'Man's best friend,'"
they point out.
