To learn more about Progressive
Education and to study problems
of school administrators, Principal
Burt Johnson, Miss Mary Moore,
Miss Eleanor Kornegay, Miss An
toinette Beasley and Superintend
ent Ray Armstrong attended the
annual meeting of the Progressive
Education Association in New York
City from February 23 to 26. Mr.
Johnson remained in Atlantic City,
N. J., to attend the National Asso
ciation of School Administrators,'
meeting from February 27 to
March 3.
Among those who lectured in
New York City to the representa
tives was Dr. Charles H. Judd,
who is in charge of the Depart
ment of Education in the Univer
sity of Chicago.
Helen Keller, famous blind ora
tor, and Dr. William Kilpatrick
of the University of Minnesota,
were among the outstanding speak
ers whom Mr. Johnson heard in
Atlantic City.
The faculty as a whole elected
one representative from each of the
schools to accompany Mr. Arm
strong and Mr. Johnson. As there
was no majority vote in the Wil
liam Street School, they had no
representative. Miss Beasley was
elected from high school, Miss
Moore from Virginia Street School,
and Miss Kornegay from the Wal
nut Street school.

Will you be present when the
world’s most talked of personali
ties fiock to the gala opening of
Goldsboro’s first Celebrities’ Ball!
This greatest social function of
the year will be held in the William
Street gym, Friday, March 11, and
all GHS students should be flat
tered to learn that they alone are
to have the privilege of meeting
these famous people, for the stu
dents will be the celebrities and
the Celebrities’ Ball is the second
of the three school socials planned
for this year.
An announcer will be stationed
at the main entrance and as the
celebrities arrive, the loudspeaker
will announce:
‘‘John Jones, excuse me, I mean
Clark Gable just stepped from his
T-model, er, my mistake, his Rolls-
Royce. Won’t you say a few words
to your fans, Clark?”
^‘And look who’s here, if it isn’t
Mae AVest. What! You say Shirley
Temple. I’m awful sorry, but won’t
you say just a few words to the
folks, Shirley?”
After the trying ordeal of broad
casting the guests will be invited
into the ballroom to dance, and
those who don’t may play Bingo.
The Social Committee feels sure
that each student will have a won
derful time if he comes to the school
social.

Well, here we are somewhere be
tween the little Cupids or Bunny
Rabbits. Everybody seems to be in
an awful fix. Now, take Reba, for
instance, she’s broken hearted since
her deep attraction has been work
ing in Chapel Hill. . . . Speaking
of that place, it seems as though the
little Westray girl is yearning for
it. . . . Here’s hoping that the con
tentment which surrounds Nannie
Mae and Rudolph P. soon reaches
them in the same way it touched
J. C. Smith and the last year’s
basketball heroine. . . . But for the
unbelievable — that imperturbable
immunity of our SA President
seems about to be going under, but
it’s strictly an “executive” affair.
. . . And while we’re up in the
ranks, our swimmer, Thomson,
seems to lean in a Stenhouse direc
tion. . . . What do you suppose
ruined the beautiful friendship be
tween Berta P. and Edith J. 1 Could
it be T. Snypes, who has cast liis
charms toward F. Satterfield? . . .
It’s funny to me how anxious Grace
H. is to write up the Eureka bas
ketball games. She and Frances S.
Barnes both go for Dan — who
ever he may be. . . . Who is the
Junior who has gotten in so deep
that he steals his uncle’s car to take
her to ride? ... As long as we’re
playing this question and answer
game, why doesn’t someone tell
Gabe and Billy Manly that all con
versing must be done in French
and really ought to be connected
with the lesson? . . . We’ve lost an
Alfalfa; Herman P. is slicking his
hair down so that I’m inclined to
“cherchez la femme.” . , . We are
all wondering who gave Helen Cox
that grand box of candy for Val
entine’s Day. ... I’m only hoping
that the Bunny Rabbits bring more
evidence of blooming romances. .
And some that will come in my di
rection. ... A gentle hint to the
unattached.
“Student attendance has in
creased 3.9 per cent this year over
last,” states Mr. Johnson. “Enroll
ment has increased thirty-one stu
dents and membership twenty-one
students. ’ ’
The average attendance last year
was 733 a day; this year, 758 a day.
Last year’s total enrollment was
804; this year, 832 to date. Mem
bership the fifth month of last year
was 759; fifth month of this year,
783.
For four years Mr. Johnson has
been workingi on decreasing the
number of students dropping from
school. Twenty-six dropped out last
year and eleven this year.
For the fifth month Mr. Davis’
10th grade homeroom leads in at
tendance with only three absences,
giving 99.9 per cent attendance.
Miss Downing’s 9th grade home
room is next with four absences
and 99.35 per cent. Miss Koch’s
11th grade homeroom has nine ab
sences and 98 per cent.
The senior class membership with
151 is the largest in the history of
the school. Last year’s membership
was 110.
