March 24, 1939 GOLDSBORO HI NEWS PAGE FIVE Mr. Neil Joseph Talks On Foreign Travels Mr. ISTeil Joseph, upon invitation from Mrs. Bradford’s second period history class, talked March 3, to a large majority of the student body on his trip last summer to Lebanon, Mr. Joseph and his party sailed from l^ew York to Southampton, England, on the Cunard White Star Liner, Queen Mary. The Queen Mary, Mr. Joseph said, “weighs 82,- 000 tons, is 1,100 feet long and has 13 decks. It carries 3,600 people and is a city in itself, having a swimming pool, gym, game rooms, several ball rooms and dance halls.” After docking in Southampton, he went to London where he saw Buckingham Palace, visited West minster Abbey, the Tower of Lon don and the House of Parliament. From England Mr. Joseph toured France and Paris. Here he saw many of the famous structures of that country, namely, the Eiffil Tower, the Arch of Triumph and the Palace of Versailles. Marseille was the port of de parture from France from which he sailed to Jaffa, Palestine, via Alex andria, Egypt. From Jaffa Mr. Joseph went to his home in Lebanon where he was greeted by officials of that country. The officials, hav ing heard of Mr. Joseph’s ac complishments in this country, presented him with the flag of Lebanon which is red, white and blue with one of the cedars of Leba non pictured upon the white section. “The forest of the cedars of Lebanon,” said Mr. Joseph, “would be a disappointment to many people, because the trees number only two or three hundred.” Throughout his talk, Mr. Joseph showed his audience why they should' be glad that they live in America. An American can walk into the Capitol unhindered, but no one may observe England’s Parliament with out first being thoroughly searched. In Palestine the Arabs and Jews are fighting because they have not yet learned to respect each other’s reli gion. At the end of his trip Mr. Joseph had visited three of the largest cities in the world, ITew York, London and Paris, and had set foot upon four continents, l^orth America, Europe, Africa and Asia. Grand Slam I think it wuz just a shame not to make Sadie Hawkins Day school- wide, There are some senior girls with long legs and empty hearts that would have welcomed the op portunity. (Course I hate to men tion any names but Goon has been so desperate of late that she’s been taking a Charles Atlas course. The better to hold him, my dear.) Don’t Blame The Cameraman I after Of course I was absent when it happened, but did you see what the editors let get into the last issue of the Hi News ? It’s an insult to Izzy to let that twerp write. In fact it stank (past tense of stink) so bad that it ruined my taste for the whole paper. Hark! A poetic inspiration— There is a twerp named Badduza Who was an awful poor luza He was a rat and also a louse A_nd his jokes warn’t so nuza. In a recent current events discus sion Sara J. remarked that certain stolen cars had been seen at the air port. The class was shocked! Oh well, they’ll grow up to the fact that the A.P. has been the “stamping ground” of the elite for generations. It is a well known fact that this is not a scandal column so bear that in mind as I continue. Beware! Beware! John Law, the poor “benighted” (thanks, Pete) soul has given Goon a driver’s license. (It must have been that famous Colie Swing—it couldn’t hav been intellect.) As for myself. I’ve taken to walking. With maniacs like that on the road I haven’t got a chance. “Sorry, Mr, Freeman, but I can’t stay this afternoon. I’ve got a date with the Photog.” Appointment at 4:05 and now it’s 4:29. Why do girls primp so much ? There oughta be a law. I dash into the office and flop limply against the table which threatens to collapse at any minute. Mr. Moore, better known as Henry, breezes in and stops short. “Well, what’s the matter? You all look like you’re getting ready to j Womble, “somebody’s turned loose face a firing squad or have a tooth ' I can sympathize with boys putting on this stiff thing. Gimme a straight jacket any day.” At last the four shots are taken, a broad, silly grin, a blank stare, one with squinched up eyes, and one with my trap gapping open. A blood-curdling shriek echoes down the hall. “My goodness,” gasps Miss Library Staff Makes Extensive Collection a maniac. “jSTo M’am, just Jones,” sez I as I grab the maniac by the tail of her new red jacket and jerk her into the elevator. “Thank gosh that’s over.” S E N 1 O n PICTURES— PHOOEY. Musical Program Given By Goldsboro Citizens Sophomore Group Completes Project With Open House As an outgrowth of a lengthy study on capital punishment Miss Spencer’s double period English and World History class held an Open House on capital punishment Each class in school was asked to send two representatives and they were shown around the various ex hibits by guides chosen from the double period.

Let’s see who’s next ? Howard Crocker.” Howard immediately heads for a mirror, straightens his tie and sways gracefully into the mysterious room with the oozy blue lights. The unquenchable Jones arrives through one door as Howard exits through the other. As usual, she bounces in with a giggle and a wad of gum and begins. "'It Never Rains'^ to be Junior Play; “You know, I think Mr. Moore i Cast and Committees Are at Work is the cutest thing. He just runs around the camera and grins. I bet he gets tired of grinning, don’t you ? I was sticking out my tongue when he took the last picture. I just know all my pictures are gonna be ter-r- rible, etc.” Floppy and Lorraine appear on the scene at this inopportune time (Jones is still wound up). “Come’re, Flop, I gotta something to tell ya.” Oh, no you don’t, Edith May- belle Jones, If you’ve got anything personal to tell me, you’ll come out here in the hall where you can tell me out loud, ’cause Lindsey just finished combing my hair and you nor nobody else is going to mess it up.” My turn a-at last! “Gosh but I feel dignified, sez I to me, as I strut up and down in front of the big mirror,” “Ru-uth, there goes that all-fired collar again.
