Can You
Take It?
Well, here I am again for my
fifth edition of CAN YOU TAKE
IT? So if you don’t like it, stop
reading right now or you may be
sorry. Who knows??? Not me!!!
Donald Myers had his eye on
Pe^y Jones for a time but chang
ed his mind. That sophomore Ger
aldine Williams seems to be more
his type. I saw them at the ball
game the other night. Good luck
to you'both. You’re both swell . .
A Junior, Polly Edgerton, has
the lead in the Senior Play, “Sev
enth Heaven.” This is her second
appearance behind the footlights,
and she’s dojng fine. Although
there is considerable antagonism
among the Seniors, I know of
several Seniors that would have
made just as good “Dianes!” Ruth
Caudill for example.
Charlie Westbrook hollers, “I
don’t care,” every time he sees
Wallace A. and Marjorie W. to
gether now-a-days.
Billy Thompson says that Peg
gy Jones is too silly for him now,
sio he’s trying for that sober, ser
ious sophomore, Lillian Pate. “Sil
ly” Jones doesn’t seem to mind as
she has a Cassanova dying for
her attention, namely, Gerald
Massengill.
Everybody’s giving “Slick” the
runaround at lunch—if you know
what I mean???
That bashful Romeo, William S.
Howell, is still giving Mary Gray
Hollowell all his time and-atten
tion.
Seems that Miller Eason and
Leslie Britt will have to ease up
on their night life. They had it
pretty rough on the ole gridiron
and came out with two perfectly
beautiful busted lips. But I be
lieve Tommy Davis really lighten
ed Miller’s “night life” for him...
He really rushed Erline at the
Y. P. O. Valentine Dance . . .
I turned green with envy when
Martha Winslow appeared at the
Valentine Dance with three white
gardenias—F. W. must have got
ten terribly generous all of a sud
den — or did he rob somebody’s
grave???? Don’t mind me—I said,
I was jealous!!!
When asked if he wasn’t sweet
on Margie Perry, Bobby Malpass
remarked —“YEA”— and he was
serious, too. When we asked Os
car B. he said he was sweet on
Sug!!!I Corri, I’d say.
I heard that Ginger Keen was
just craz-z-2-z-y about Wallace
Allen. (Of course I wouldn’t swear
to this statement, I just heard it).
Strictly off the record Casey
and Cat don’t seem to be doing
so well. This really makes me
sad—you’re such a cute couple....
It seems J. P. Keen has been
drafted into going up to Raleigh
to spend the weekend at “Peace”
with Ann Warren . . . Boy, they
really make a couple .... Don’t
they?????
Goose is trying awfully hard to
get up a terrible case between
Dorothy Lahr and Tut. You can
see examples of his workmanship
all over the walls of the gym,
Community Building, G. H. S. etc.
While Tut swears that Goose is in
love with Susan Coward .
flame for that guy from Kinston.
He’ s cute, Marilyn, so here’s to
your romance.
Doreen seems to be beating
Inez’s time with Benny. He danced
with Doreen all evening at the
Valentine dance while Inez sat on
the sidelines and watched. Guess
she’ll always carry a torch for him,
although he doesn’t even speak.
La Grange sure can boast some
goodlooking boys . . . Wish I could
meet some. Wonder how Gertie,
Ruth and Jayne did it?^?? And I
hear that Ruth really likes one
certain guy.
One of the sharpest boys iji
town seems to have captured Vera
Lee Gainey’s heart—all she talks
about now is Knotty, Knotty,
Knotty and more Knotty.
Somebody has surely been giv
ing Marjorie Pal;^ a lot of pres
ents. She came in English balanc
ing a huge brown bag tied up with
a pink bow, the other day. There
was a lot of discussion about what
was in it but riobody could get
her to open it—Later she did and
out rolled cigarettes, soap, match
es, and one stick of gum. It was
really a nice present. Also she
got a box of Valentine candy from
her favorite beau.
FLASH!!! Lou and Poodle had
a spat—and she wouldn’t walk
with him to school. Instead she
walked a half block ahead—but
we’re glad to report they’ve made
up now . . . '
Ida Lewis is one cute gal—She
always has a smile for everyone
and well—she’s just the sort of
person you like to be around.
Wonder what D. C. Rouse thinks
of G. H. S.’s girls??? We know
quite a few who think, he’s mighty
cute.
A1 Ithe Seniors are going
around school practicing how
they’re going to pose when they
have their pictures taken for the
supplement. Isn’t it a pity we
can’t all be beautiful????

Biliy Winslow reports he has
broken up with Anne Lee. But
don’t be too downcast, Susan
Smith wil Itry to appease you!!I
Quite a few new romances bud
ded at the renowned Valentine
Dance—for instance . . . Martha
Rose and Bill Hart, Boz and Mary
Ann Jeffreys, Donald Pike and
Irene Jeffreys, F. W. and Martha
Winslow. Kitzi seemer to be with
everybody . . .
Some lucky blonde got six red
roses from Kenneth Waters that
night. We all know that red roses
signify love!!!
Moon seems to be lavishing his
attentions on Audrey Garris—for
the time being anyway . . .
Ida Lewis took the cake when
she escorted Julian Hill to the
dance. He has been just dying to
date her. Have fun, Julian????
From my inter-channel of in
formation I find that Bill is try
ing to step out on Molly. Didn’t
notice her crying into any stale
beer tho—She and Jello seemed to
have a huge time at the dance.
Miss Langston versu^ Tut and
Curtis!!! The whole school waits
to find out if they will or will not
return to class—We, in English
sure do miss you two. There’s a
certain spark of gaity that isn’t
there when you’re out—oh broth
er!!!

they walk down the halls and p:

Hello again! This is me and I’m
back again with the latf’st dope on
the latest recordings. There’s lots
of it, so lend an ear (don’t take
me literally).
Johnny Desmond has come out
with a superb recording of “Guil
ty.” If that doesn’t send you, turn
the record over and listen to a
mellow version of “I’ll Close My
Eyes.”
i
In case you’re an Andy Russell
fan, you can listen to his platter
of “I’ll Close My !^es.” “Dream
time” is the reverse on this disc,
but you won’t go to sleep ’cause
you won’t want to miss a note.
It’s really super.
No doubt you’ve heard “Open
the Door, Richard.” It’s been re
ported that they’re even singing
it in darkest Africa. Dusty Fletch
er, the originator. Count Basie,
the Charioteers, and several others
have made recordings of this new
est novelty tune. In case you
haven’t heard, “The Key’s in the
Mailbox” is a sequel to “Richard.”
Watch for it! You’ll want to hear
it, too!
Frank Sinatra ought to rake in
on his latest recording ’cause it’s
really one of his best. “This Is the
Night” is the name, and you’ll
