Led by Kirby Hart, the Seniors’ first big attraction came in Febru ary, when they gave their Senior Play, “Green Stockings,” after a week of high pressure publicity. A successful Barn Dance, given in April to make money for the Senior Gift, was their next step toward graduation. Last Tuesday morning the Class Day exercises were given, with the annual Senior Picnic fol lowing the program. Sunday night the Reverend J. F. Herbert will be the speaker at the Baccalaureate Sermon and on June 4 the Seniors will conclude their year’s work when they graduate. Startingoff with a party, the Juniors began their year’s work led by Fanny Parker. The annual Christmas Program was the pre sentation of “Why The Chimes Rang,” given by the Juniors. As spring rolled around they were busy at work with the Junior Play, “Three Cornered Moon,” and also the Junior issue of the Hi News. On May 16 the Seniors were guests of the Juniors at the Junior-Senior. Weekly devotionals, which were started last year by the Juniors as Sophomores, have been continued this year.

Weekly devotionals have also been continu ed by the Sophomores. Earlier in the year they sponsored a social. The Freshman Class, presided ov?r by Ralph Blind, began at t’*',' first of the year having weekly de votionals.

Next year we’ll be in a million and one places, but there’s one place we’ll always keep in a special corner of our hearts labeled “GHS.” It gives us a queer feeling to think that next year we won’t see William H.’s red hair and Dorothy L.’s curls; Herbert’s notebook and pencil; J. C.’s black hair and Elizabeth Jef frey’s golden locks; Mr. Freeman’s rotund form advancing or Miss Ne well’s elongated statue; Nellie B.’s shapely legs and Dillon’s perpetual grin. And Jean D.’s contagious guffaw? And what about “Nebraska’s” as sembly announcements and any li brarian’s summons? And speaking of clothes, where will we find another slouch jacket like Clum’s? Or Snag’s pink dress? Not to mention Margaret Jean’s middy blouses and Betty W.’s rever- sable. And the band’s uniforms and Francis G.’s majorette uniform? And Walter R.’s fur headgear? And Betty Reeve’s pink sweater? Say, just what will be do next year? Bradfords To Travel Down Mexico Way With the prospects of an enjoy able summer vacation, Mrs. Clifton H. Bradford, GHS Social Science teacher and her husband plan to leave North Carolina about July 20 on a trip to Mexico. They will drive through the Great Smokies National Park to Memphis, Tennessee, where they will take a boat down the Mississippi to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and continue by car through Houston, San Antonia, and Loreda, Texas, and over the border to Monterey, Mexico. The Bradfords expect to return by the way of the gulf of Mexico, drive by New Orleans, Louisiana; Biloxi, Mississippi; Pensacola, Flor ida; and on to St. Augustine to see the Marine Studios. They will re turn to North Carolina the latter part of August. Among the honors received by GHS in the past school year, many have been made by the two musical organizations, the band and the glee club, under the direction of Mr. W. C. Saddler and Mr. Palmer C. Holt, respectively. The brass band with approxi mately fifty members, including ten majorettes, has taken six out-of- town trips. The combined glee clubs with approximately 95 members have presented six programs. Students: Make your reservations now! Get choice seats for the extra weeks on your favorite subject this summer. No more 8:30 classes. Hoo ray! They begin at 8 now. The weather forecast states it will be hot in July (unusual)! Remember, four weeks in what is commonly known as summer school! I Junior-Senior Has Patriotic Theme At the annual Junior-Senior Re ception held May 16 in the William Street Gym, the guests stepped into a patriotic atmosphere as they enter ed the gaily decorated gym. The rear of the gym was made up as a big ship which was the set ting of the skit in which Hilda Bell and J. D. Pike took the leads. The skit was centered around the Annapolis graduation. A farewell party was being given on board ship for the graduates and their sweethearts. While the boys, dress ed in a sailor’s dress uniform, and their girls gathered around, Jimmie Kannan, ’36, and Betsy Cade, ’42 sang unaccompanied “When Day Is Done.” Upon the sailors’ return from a six months cruise they were again honored at a party at which they told of their journey. The many things the sailors saw were given on the floorshow in dances and songs by the Sophomore girls and seventh grade girls. As the program reached a climax, Betsy Cade sang “I Give My Thanks To America” as a spotlight was shone on Susan Mooring, who portrayed “The Statue of Liberty” and later sang “The Star Spangled Banner,” while the audience stood motionless. After refreshments were served, dancing was held until 12 o’clock. FOR YOUR GRADUATION GIFTS Isoocs - Cofsteen Jewelry Co. ROYALL FURNITURE CO The Store Where COSTS SO LITTLE 107 S.
