BAILEY BUGLE, BAILEY. NORTH CAROLINA. APRIL, 19Sh Why Exchdnges BY BETTY LOU BROl/m Exchanges of school papers -83rve more purposes than merely for entertainment. They can be a real asset to any staff and to the student body, Idoas for improving the staff's paper, for solving students' problems, and learning about certain clubs, like the Beta Club, are among the reasons for exchanges• Another reason for ex changes is that schools like to know about other schools] hence a common interest is shared. Exchanges can help in a comparative study of one’s paper. Weak points and good points can be weighed, resulting in a better paper for the staff eval uating the papers. New friends can be met through exchanges. Reading about certain students month after month, their interests.,thoir activities makes them come alive and appear as new friends. If anyone wants to in crease his journalism terms, exchar^es make this possible tooo SingWhii©You:Driv0 At 16 miles per hour, sing. 1‘HIGffiAYS ARE HAPPY WAYS." At 65 miles, sing— "NEARER MY GOD TO THEE." At 85 miles, sing— "LORD^I’M COMING HOME." The Battle Of TheHaHs I looked at my watch again. One minute until ten o'clock. Only one more minute and we would go into battle, my stout hearted classmatcs and I. We would change from alge bra to English class, I looked around at those close to me. They were get ting ready for the battle that occurs in the halls between each class. They shifted their algebra books over to the side of their notebooks and clip boards. Books placcd in this manner, make excellent weapons. Ring-a-ling went the bell. Zip I We were out of our seats and out the door. Gaily chattcring and laugh ing, we marched down the hall. The laughter was just a pretense. In the narrow hall filled with scurrying schoolmates, the "friends" xire were with couldn't see us when we knocked, pinched, pushed, and shoved them about. Finally, we got to a place where there were lockers on both sides of the hall. Push ("Excuse me!") Shove ("Ouch! ! That's my foot vrhen you're through with it!") Pinch ("Nol That wasn't me I") At last I My locker loomed in view. I struggled to it. Mary, the girl I shared the locker with, already had it opened. I have the bottom part of the locker so I leaned down to get my books. A fatal mistake I Before I could rise again somebody shoved "Two-Ton" Page 7 (ESSAY - BOBBIE LOU BATTS) Joe Baker and he sat down on what I laughingly refer to as my head, VJhen I got up, Mary dropped her science book (the heaviest book we have) on what was left of mo. "Oh, dear! Excuse me!" she said. "Perfectly all right" I managed to m’mble.I didn't even have the strength to pinch her leg. I got to my seat just as the principal announced, "Folks, that was good! Only one casualty. Let's see if wc can do this good between every classc" Goodness only one casual ty; that was good, I looked at my watch. 10;l5, only minutes ^ ■«-! 4* *1 n For Sai© Den.nied And Tr©at©d S©© Or Call B.
