It’s too bad that I can’t see the play tonight, for I really would like to know who comes with whom. But since I am writing this column no longer I guess it mat ters not'. Your friendly inventor has just released a new device, the first model of which he has sent to Julian Hill, for a trial. The device is a combination flash-light and range finder, combined with ,the famous “snooperscope.” -It is con structed in this manner. In a little box which is concealed in the hair is a small generating plant, to gen erate electricity for the infra-red red lamp, which is located immed iately over the box. Contact lenses equipped with a precision sight of the type used on aii’plane machine guns, are worn over the eyes, and connected to the light. Now the light shines—invisible to the nak ed eye but the contact lenses per mit the wearer to see, and with the sights, well, why you just can’t miss. By the way, patent’s applied for. We hope that the receiv'er of this model, J. H., will use, effect ively, and have no more “mis- cues.” Do your toes need curling? If so, We hear that Mary Olive has a patented tecfhnique for the job. Only a small fee charged. While out driving in my limo- sene the other day I was force fully stopped and forced to drive Bobby D., Donald P., Julian H.'and whole slough of the others ... that category — apologies to any Elizabeth Garris is “tall, should be — ballet dancer, will be — cir cus clown. Billy Thompson has muscles, should be — boxer, will be — dish washer. Bill Edwards is tall, should be sign painter, will be — sewer sweeper. Betty Bradford is small, should be — housewife, will be — cement mixer. Hugh Pope is clumsy, should be —football coach, will be — butter fingers. Well, you Juniors be good, and we’ll see ya more. So until we meet in person, Can You Take It, Jr.? ^umans—humans, that is, that might think they were included in the same group as those named above—I was forced to drive them to Clarissie P. What did they want there??? Just happened to wonder if Son ny Godwin is still on the trail of Martha Rose? That has no bearing on my col umn whatsoever. Just there to take up space. Rudolph and Joyce B. seem to still be on speaking terms, or may be I should say some other type of terms, for from what I hear, there is not much talking when they’re together. Kenneth Fulghum is the envy of a lot of the boys out here at GHS what with Ann H. and all. The writer of this column, who IS a famous author, has just pub lished a book on Wayne and sur rounding counties. It is very help ful if you are looking for a place to run out of gas some night. Hear that Leslie is really in the “groove"' over in Mt. Olive.—He’s hep. So I hear. Donald M. and JuHa S. missed their morning game of playing hands the other day. Has someone come between these two love birds? Attention girls! Look your best, Casanova Johnnie H. is on the look out for a date to Jr.-Sr. Don't let such an opportunity as this go by unnoticed. John Duke has asked me to make this announcement: Will all you underclassmen (female spe cies) please quit staring at him and swooning when he passes you. He will appreciate it very much. It seems that Ofecar and Leah L.' may be renewing the romance that was cut short by some mishap a couple of years ago. Dan B. and Jackie always hap pen (?) to meet each other be tween classes and at lunch period. What a coincidence. Someone has told me that Henry M. has quite a bit of romance in his heart and he desires to share it with Eleanor (sis) B. Say, Jo, you’d better watch that two-timing Paul of yours, you should have seen him and Ruth the other night after play rehear sal—no, you shouldn’t have seen ’em. We are all planning on seeing Archie and Christine at the Jr.-Sr. ain’t we. Won’t we? D^’t forget my friends, that fol lowing the Jr.-Sr. we have the negotiations for bids, hoys, and Varsity’s formal dance; better star* also start negotiating to get a date A new schedule has been made for Goldsboro High School. The actij-ity period, which formerly was only 30 minutes in length and came from 9:00-10:30, is now 45 minutes long and comes between second and third periods. The school day now begins at 8:45. Each period consists of an hour. The activity period is held for assemblies, committee meet ings, study, or any other activity work, it was announced by Mr. C. W. Twiford, April 17. This is being done because stu dents are missing so many class periods. This schedule became effective Monday, April 21. This is not a permanent schedule. It will continue throughout this year. If it is successful, it may be adopted permanently, Mr. Twiford said. Also a new rule has been made stating that each student must have a note from his subject teacher before leaving a class room. Basketball Letters Awarded Players Recently Coach Norris Jeffrey [Junior letters to George Karmon, and Coach Anthony Blysack | highest scorer; Sonny Godwin, Page Seveit awarded the Varsity and Junior basketball letters to the deserving boys of the “47” teams. Before Coach Jeffreys present ed the Varsity letters, he named the requirements that every boy must meet before he is eligible to receive a letter. They are: Each boy must participate in at least sixty minutes of play. He must have been on the squad all sea son. The boys receiving the letters were: Bill Davis, Carl Casey, Clip Noble, Durwood Stafford, Tommy Beamon, Curtis Lancaster, Charles Shumate, Donald King, Billy Ruffin, Bobby Klutz, Hugh Shine and Gerald Massengill. Coach Blysack delivered his Troy Pate, George Kannon, J. D Sassef, Fred' Tyndall, Bobby Gil- ligan, and Skippy Culloty. At the close of the program Clip Noble, president of the Varsity Club, called the following boys to the stage to bestow upon them the honor of joining the Varsity Club: Hugh Shine, Donald King, Bill Da vis, and Durwood Stafford. To become a member of the Varsity Club, a boy must have won a Varsity letter in one of the three major sports: football, basket ball, or baseball. He must also receive a two-thirds majority of votes of members. Sportsmanship and attitude count very much in favor of a boy being voted into the club Homemakers Attend Meet Famous Man Is Heard In Devotional Father Joseph T. O’Callahan, the only chaplain in history to re ceive the Congressional Medal of Honor, spoke to the student body on leadership recently. The speaker said, “There is a difference between being a leader and being followers. A true lead er will lead people to safety with out thought of himself, and some one who has followers may lead them to a blind alley. “Four characteristics necessary to a true leader are: ability, training of that ability, unselfish ness, and sense of religious value. A sense of religious value will help you to understand and control your followers.” Father O’Callahan used inci dents in the bombing of the ship ‘Franklin” to illustrate his points. He told of the miraculous return of the “Franklin” to Pearl Har bor, which could not have been accomplished without true lead- ! ers. Father O’Cdllahan was intrO' duced by Father John Newman, of St. Mary’s Catholic Church of Goldsboro. Polly Edgerton, chairman of the Devotional Committee, presided over the meeting. Frances Fulghum, Goldsboro High School student, modeled a suit, blouse, hat, bag, and gloves in the fashion review which was the highlight of the morning session of the State rally of the Future Homemakers of America, held April 12 in Hugh Morson High School, Raleigh. There were approximately one hundred schools represented in the review. Other Goldsboro girls attending were Joyce Bagley, Ev elyn Southerland, Betty Sullivan, Nancy Noblin, Nona Grey Best, and Martha Ann Rose. The meeting was presided over by Aline Casey, Mt.

DYED CLEANED REFINISHED New Process WILL NOT CRACK OR RUB OFF — All Popular Colors — CAROLINA Shoe Rebuilders 124 E. Walnut St. (By Herbert Howell) With the clean odors of spring in the air, there naturally settles a state of drowsiness, everywhere, but especially among the students of GHS. That is, for everyone ex cept the physical ed. boys. For them it’s a time for anything but drowsiness. It’s a time for work outs on the track. -Every afternoon they can be seen running round and around. Their requirement are to run a mile in seven minutes. All the boys line up and start to gether. The steady plop, plop, plop of tennis shoes pounding the turf can be heard as they begin. Pretty soon as they go by you can hear them breathing heavily, and sweat streaks their bodies. On finishing the mile they sprawl on the cool grass with heaving sides. But still their toil is not over. Soon the familiar voice of the coach says, “O. K. — ready for the 2201” A heap of humanity which the observer judges to be r wearily rises to his feet and walks to the starting line for the 220 yard dash. Then off he gofes like a streak. Some of the boys travel like greased lightning, others run so you wonder if they’ll make it arocind the bend or col lapse into a heap. After the tor turous exercise the weary boys make for the club house for a cool shower. Even if to us spring brings drowsiness, it only, means more hard work and that familiar cry, “Round The Track” for the physi cal ed. boys.
