A letter from Mr. John H. Ingle,
manager of the Social Security
board, to Mr. C. W. Twiford says
that after the card has been re-
>ceived it should be shown to the
.employer. The student should
make sure that his employer
writes down his name and Social
Security number, “ ... if the em
ployer does not have the number
the student may not get credit for
the tax she has paid” says the let
ter.
Mr. Ingle says that some stu-
idents may have had one card be
fore but had lost it. If this is done
.the student should apply not for
.another number but merely for a
(duplicate card. The letter stressed
;this point: “No one should have
tout one number during his life
time. If a person has more than
one card it is possible he will not
get credit for all his wages.”

Miss Zelda Johnson, in gather
ing material for her thesis for her
Master’s Degree at the University
of North Carolina, used the fresh
man health course and physical
examination given by Goldsboro
High School as the basis.
The examination was given as
a part of the health course in the
social science classes. The Univer
sity could find no other high school
in the country that gave complete
physical examinations as part of
the regular school curriculum, so
they asked Miss Johnson to write
her thesis on this rather unusual
course.
The examination given to the
entire freshman class last year,
and its results composed the main
part of Miss Johnson’s thesis, en
titled “Cooperative Development
of a School Health Program.”
Several weeks ago Miss Johnson
issued a form to all sophomore
students and teachers, on which
they expressed their opinions as to
the proper health program for
GHS. These findings were analyz
ed and incorporated in the thesis
by Miss Johnson. Mr. Ray Mor
rison, professor at the University,
was Miss Johnson’s advisor.
Parts of Miss Johnson’s thesis
will be used in a bulletin to be
brought out shortly by the re
search bureau of the University.
Mrs. J. E. Britt, home economics
teacher, and Mr. C. W. Twiford,
principal, helped Miss Johnson in
her findings.
According to recent reports,
Wilson Griffin, class of ’43, will
be getting his discharge from the
Navy sometime in the near future.
James Renn, Oscar Lovelace,
both of class of ’44, and George

Miss Lois Taylor, Mrs. Lionel
Salter, Mrs. Lynn Castlebury, the
