CATALINE BANISHED BY LATIN GLASSES program GIVEN IN CHAPEL. “Me banished from Rome, No! Never! Me go into exile: If so only for a short time; then I will return,” replied Sidney Meyers, impersonating Cataline of the ancient Roman Em pire, in answer to Cicero’s oration against him in the high school audi torium, Monday, May 13. Billy Crow impersonated Cicero. Cataline formed a conspiracy to kill Cicero, the leader of the Roman Em pire, but was foiled in hig attempt. As a result, Cicero called a meeting of the Senate, composed of Mrs. Mid dleton’s Latin classes, in order to de termine the fate of such a reptile as Cataline. In giving his oration he asked the Senate’s opinion of the mat ter. One recommended death; anoth er proposed that Cataline be exiled for life, believing that that would be a greater punishment than death. While the discussion was taking place, Cataline walked into the Sen ate chamber. He sat down on the first row of seats and immediately all the others on the same row proceeded to find other seats not so close to Cat. aline Cicero continued his oration, talking direct to Cataline, and asking him what they should do with him. Cataline attempted to make a sneer ing reply, but when he stood, the Sen ate bellowed, “Down in front.” This annoyed Cataline very much as was shown by the expression on his face. When the Senate had voted to have him exiled for life, Cicero turned to Cataline: “Can't you see that no one cares anything for you? When you sit down beside them, they get ui) and move; when you stand ui> they holler, “Down in front,” I ask you Cataline why do you want to live among these decent people, who despise the very ground you walk upon?” In answer to this, Cataline walked to the door where he himself deliv ered a short oration to the Senate, saying: “1 will not be banished from Rome, neither will I go into exile; but I will remain right here as long as I wish, and you can’t do anything about it. Smile on, ha, ha, trying to banish the great Catalne from Rome Ridiculous! 1 am leaving now but I will soon return.” At the conclusion of this oration, Cr^taline relieved the Senate by with drawing from the chamber, and when Billy Crow announced the adjournment of the meeting, the Senate was still sninned and dazed by C'ataline’s at titude. I DORTCH Electric Contracting Motor Repair. Radio ^ Phone 46 I adventure were all combined in the I Junior Play “Pigs” which was given I at the North State Theater, both nuxt- I inee and night, Friday, April 20. This ' piayi, a comedy in three acts by Anne Morrison and Patterson M^iKnutt, i.s an annual event in the Goldsboro High School, but this year’s play proved to be one of the greatest successes in its history. The plot of the play was centered around the actions of Junior Atkins (Clarence Peacock) and Mildred Cush ings (Helen Zealey) in trying to raise two hundred and fifty dollars with which to buy two hundred and fifty pigs which the owner thought Mad the cholera and this thought seemed to be shared with everyone else whom these two young lovers tried to bor-j row the money from. Junior was | strong in his beliefs that Shoemakers | Life Giving Bitters would c .tre any-j thing that had not been dead over forty-eight hours and Mildred, his sweetheart, was inclined to believe cuything that he said. These two young actors played their parts very well and did much to make the play a big dramatical success. GRANDMA AND HECTOR ARE EXCELLENT COMEDIANS The comedy of the play was furnish, ed by Hector Spencer (Robert Kelly) * and Grandma Spencer (Evelyn Bad- j dour)'. Neither one of these two put' any faith at all in either 'Junior or i chance at success. ! Joseph Mathews as Doctor Springer I helped Junior cure the pigs and was I the first to announce Junior as one of I the WlorldB gT(^utest veterinaries. I Strauchan Duncan also played the j part of Smith Hastings, the rich and stingy land owner, very well. The play ended in great triumph, Junior getting his ambition to be a good veterinary realized Mildred get ting her ambition to marry Junior realized, Spencer getting his hopes of being a poet encouraged. Air. Atkins getting his financial troubles over with, and Mrs. Atkins getting her wish for her son to make a success fulfilled. FACULTY-SENIOR GAME On Wednesday, May 15, the Senior baseball team met the Faculty nine on the William Street School ground. The Faculty upset the dope bucket by trouncing the Seniors 23 to 13. Moore for the Seniors led the hit ting with a home-run and a three bag ger and pitched as well as one could except for a lanky first baseman; due to the uneven ground around short stop he was given little support. Hook- slide Parker gave a good imitation of a sleeping beauty when Bull Omer caught him asleep off first base. Bullock for the Faculty was their Mildred and considered anjlhing they with a homer to his credit, he had airtight support in the form did just a childish prank. Junior seemed to return this compliment very welli in the play and he did not mind to tell S’pencer that he wished that he would go to work and once he even admitted that he had given Spencer a free dose of Shoemakers Life Giving Bitters in his tea in order to get him to feeling good and get him to working This confession brought forth loud groans and utterances of pain from the lips of Spencer, he very bitterly resenting the idea of him tak ing the medicine that was given to the goat, even though it did cure the goat These two comedians kept the audiences roaring with laughter -from the beginning of the play until the end and everyone was quite satisfied with their acting. Spencer Atkins (Marion Whitted) and Lenore Hastings (Helen Daniels) also proved to be obstacles in the way of Junior in his attempts to raise the money and even though Spencer did not care anything about it. Junior claimed that it was Spencer who was getting all of the attention of the fam. ily at this critical time, just because he was just back from college and had a C'ellestia. These two also did some good acting and their love scenes made the old folks young and brouglit the young folks ui> in their seats to learn a lesson. William Howell (Thomas Atkins, Sr.) and Mary Pipkin (Mrs. Atkina) as the father and mother of Junior respectively^ j)layed tbeir parts per fectly and it was for his father that Jimior wanted to nuike the money as of “Lefty” Armstrong, “Speed” Wil son, and “Vocal” Frederick. The fea ture of the Faculty offensive came when “Sea Breeze” Helms hit safely to first and then proceeded to steal second, third, and home. The receii)ts of the game go to re place stolen equipment of the Varsity baseball team. mmxxxxxxxxxxxxxuxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxtxxuxttxm IIVeSUR AJV O xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx NORTH STATE THEATER Where Every Body GOES C.
