Page Six Goldsboro High News Friday, May 2, 1947 DISC HITS (By Leah Lloyd Rigshee) Well, here I am again! Spring’s really wonderful, isn’t it? And so are the new records that are out. There are a whole heap of them. So—here we go. Jimmy Dorsey has come out with a smooooooooth recording of “There is No Greater Love” which is on its way up. The opposite side features “Heartaches” in the standard J. Dorsey arrangement. Dennis Day, the boy with two radio shows, has waxed two new recordings, “How Are Things In Glocca Morra?” and “Mam’selle,' a new hit. In case you’re a Pied Piper fan you can get their re cording of it. Phil Harris has popularized “The Possum Song” and “Poppa Don’t Preach To Me,” which has been recorded by Judy Garland. These are catchy tunes which you’ll like. Another one of those nonsensical but cute tunes is “Across the Al ley From the Alamo.” Stan Kenton has done a superb job on this disc. Woody Herman has made it also. “Midnight Masquerade,” a nice dreamy sort of song has been re corded by Alvino Rey and Eddie Howard. You can take your choice. Jo Stafford’s new recording, “A Sunday Kind of Love” is in the • same ole Stafford manner. That’s right, it’s good. “My Desire” is Margaret Whiting’s offering. You’ll like it too. ' Something sort of different is Bob Hope’s and Dorothy Lamour’s recording of “My Favorite Bru nette” from the picture of the same monicker. Another recording by them from the picture is “Be side You.” Dottie and Bob do a lit tle bit of adlibbing on the side and if you are fans of theirs, you’ll love these recordings. Benny Goodman has recorded two new lively tunes, “Moonfaced and Starry-eyed,” and “Fine and Dandy.” If you’re in a blue mood listen to them for a while and they’ll cheer you up. “Speaking of Angels” is Elliot Lawrence’s new recording. Just dedicate it to your girl if you’re in trouble. She’ll beam at you from then on. The King Cole Trio’s latest re cording has a kind of confusing title but maybe you can figure it out. It’s “Meet Me At No Special Place And I’ll Be There At No Particular Time.” “The Brookl3ni Bridge” and “I Believe” from Frank Sinatra’s new picture “It Happened In Brook lyn” are tops and so are his re cordings of them. That winds it up for this issue but I’ll be seein’ y’all next time!!!

I’m getting ready to do my life’s night work (homework, worse luck.). I’m being forced to do it. You know, the teachers have been taking up homework lately. (Wonder why?) Well, anyway, I ought to be able to do it tonight. I’m all alone be cause all the family has gone out. I guess I’ll turn on the radio for company. Oh! What’s that? The Inner Sanctum.” Just the thing for me to listen to. Let’s see. How many atoms in a molecule? How many molecules in the compound? What’s that? Somebody on the porch? Maybe I’ll go look. No, I’m scared to open the door. No, it’s just the wind. (I tell myself.) Well, to get on with the home work. Oh! but this program’s too good to miss. I’ll do rny chemistry later. Gee! There go the noises again. What are they? They sound like they’re in the house now. Maybe I’ll pick my feet off the floor and put them in the chair. I ought to get rny other book but I can’t go iA the other room alone. Anyway, I dn’t want to miss the “Inner Sanctum.” Oh, well, that’s the end of the program. (I’m glad of that.) I guess I’ll get my chemistry in the morning so I’ll go on with English. Bang! Bang! Golly, now, that is somebody at the door. As I fear fully put my feet back on the floor and creep to the door I hear my family say, “I wonder where she is?” With a s^gh of relief I open the ^oor and almost fall on them in my joy to see them. They look at the clock and say, “My goodness, but it’s late. You go to bed.” “But my work.” “Now!” Well, now, if the teachers read thiSj they’ll know why so many of us don’t have all our home work always. Style Wiles Here I am bock with Style Wiles but I’ll be forced to say that it looks like styles are just standing still in G. H. S. Everyone is still wearing skirts with sweaters and big skirts. But these new blouses that Lou and Jewel are sporting around are awfully nice. The blue becomes both of you. It’s been so cold lately that all the gals have gpt out their nylons and are wearing them to school with socks. You can’t blame us though ’cause they do keep our legs warm!!!! I see Pate and Gerty have gone down to a shoe shop and bought them some new black and white saddle shoes. They are mighty pretty but they aren’t the only ones that have dressed their feet up. Faye B. has some brand new white moccasins and they are real ly sharp!! Usually my column is strictly about girls styles around schooL But I’ve just got to say something about the way the boys ai^e wear ing their shirts buttoned up at the neck. I sure would like to know who started it and where he got h^s idea. Maybe out of some fash ion magazine for boys!! Gaynell really has a variety of kerchiefs. Every time you see her she has on a different one. They sure are pretty thpugh!!!! Gee!!! I sure will be glad when spring gets here. So we all can Being Sick In Springtime Is Terrible (By Leah Lloyd Rigsbee) How would you like to spend a couple of weeks in bed? Rest, take it easy and all that sort of stuff. Sounds pretty good, doesn’t it? That's what I thought until it actually happened. A sore throat acted up and stuck me in bed for several days. Believe me, it wasn’t any fun. Being sick in the winter time isn’t so bad but in the spring— well, that’s an entirely different affair. Staying in bed isn’t much fun when it’s pretty outside. Mak ing up work isn’t any fun either. It’s just like homework multiplied by about six. And then you never can tell what sort of things peo ple are saying about you. So take my advice: don’t get sick if you can help it. If you can’t, wait til wintertime. It isn’t so bad then. start wearing cotton dresses and also maybe there will be some new styles. See ya!!!! SeyitiQur Funeral Home Private Ambulance Service Office Phone 1065 Golf School Is Planned Plans are underway to get an afternoon set aside to enable high school boys and girls to learn how to play golf. There have been many favorable comments concerning this project, which is to be worked out with the director of the Golf Club.

Nash St. Writing Is Hard For Lazy Folks (By Lois Pearce) Ever walk by the door of the Journalism class at fifth period and hear the groans and grumbles over the effort to get an editorial, feature, or news story down on paper so that the editors (Bless ’em) will let it stay instead of crossing it out? Especially during the two weeks after the paper is distributed, the days when all the poor journalism students are wracking their brains for ideas to amuse their readers. It usually takes about three days to discover an interesting topic and then it takes another week to think of something interesting to say on it. Well, walk by that way some day when you get the chance, and you’ll surely learn to appreciate the effort behind all the nonsense which somehow gets printed.. Sophomores Give Easter Program “King of the Jews,” an Easter program, was presented by the sophomore class on April 3.

Participating in the program were; Jerry Sanford, Calaphas; Patsy Donnell, Adina; Troy Pate, Ethel Parks, Tumah; Sonny Malchus; Alvin Joyner, Nicodem- Gainey, Jubal; Peggy Ann Rob bins, Reba; Will Bass, Roman Cap tain; Ned Champion, announcer. Spring Fever Strikes GHS, But Hard! (By Marilyn Tolochko) Have you noticed those dreamy looks on the students’ faces? Have you noticed them gazing out of windows during class instead of at their text books? These are only a couple of symp toms of the disease that’s going around school. It seems to be high ly contagious, too. Why, we’ve even noticed that some of the teachers seem to have a slight case of it.' What’s the name of this dis ease? Well, most people call it spring fever. Spring fever is the excuse stu dents give for not having their homework and for not helping with chores around the house. Spring fever is what people attri bute their feelings of laziness and dreaminess to. I guess I ought to know. But I had ^better stop writing this. My pencil keeps slipping out of my hand, my head keeps nod ding, and anyhow. I’m just not in the mood. What’s the matter with me? Oh, I guess it’s just spring fever.

The piano was bought because the students felt there was a great need for it in the school. This new piano will be kept in the auditor ium, thus enabling the light weight piano to be moved when necessary. The cost of the piano was $150. The Boy Friend By Erline Griffin Drip, drip, drip, But that is not the rain. It’s just my boy friend, Bill Who has come to call again. After draping himself gracefully On ma’s very best chair— He takes off his tie and shoes And spends the evening there.

I listen to every move he’s made During the last three days; I hear him tell for the 60th time About his making straight A’s. He tells a corny joke And I laugh to be polite, His cigarette burns a hole in the brand new rug, But I sfill have to sit tight. I play my new Dick Haymes rec ord, But Bill thinks he can sing; He tries to help poor Dicky, But I cut off the thing. Finally my bed time comes. And dear friend Bill must go; So I thank him for a wonderful time, Mother Is Rescuer of Small Baby (By Nance Potts) As I was walking down the i>treet on Monday, I saw a little kitten stranded in the middle of John Street. A .great bi.g mean- looking dog advanced toward him. The kitten was too young to know to be afraid of the dog, so he just stayed there. The dog kept draw ing nearer and nearer and as he finally got near enough to snap, he began growling. The kitten must have realized his danger, for he uttered a pitiful cry. I started to ward the dog and kitten, but be fore I could reach them, a bundle of horrified mother rushed by. She ■ was not much larger than her son, but she really put that dog to shame. She scratched and clawed and bit and the dog went running down the street with his tail be tween his legs. I sighed a sigh of relief and went my way, too. y- Mixon Paint & Glass Company PAINT MIRRORS AUTO GLASS PLATE GLASS DESK TOPS 704 N.
