Can You Take It?
Hi kids, here we are with the
old familiar “Can You Take It?”
with a different writer. You’ll
be surprised to know all the lit
tle secrets we’re in on, so you’d
better be cautious. We’re always
listening!!!!
What’s this we hear about Bet
ty Frick still having a terrible
crush on Jimmy L.? She’s a cute
gal, Jimmy, so why not get her
while you can?
Archie If. and Geraldine W. are
seen together quite a lot in the
halls lately—could it be love or
can’t Archie take Porky’s place?
Who’s this good looking guy
from Wake Forest that has Ruth
F.’s number? Couldn’t be Tom
mie L., could it?
Margie Rose and Bobby Noble
are starting sorta young, but they
shore do make a mighty cute
couple! ^
Wonder why Albert P. is al
ways late for football practice?
Couldn’t it be because oi Dawson,
could it?
Vera Lee, what happened to
Harold W? Or maybe Frances
F. can tell us that.
Flash—have you heard the lat
est? Moon and Verne are ex
changing their love and seem'to
, like it pretty well. Incidentally,
they look mighty cute, too.
Wonder why Margaret B.
thinks she’d need a chaperon if
she dated Elton W.—But don’t
give up, Elton, ’cause she’ll be a
“big girl” someday.
We’re glad to know “Lou” and
‘Poodle” got things settled before
school started. It wouldn’t be the
s&me without them going steady,
but “Lou” wishes “Poodle” would
have that front seat fixed, so that
she could sit nearer to him. We
heard they were riding along the
other night and the seat flew
back.
Wonder when the wedding will
come off? Should Billy wait for
Lillian to finish school? Lillian
seems to think that isn’t neces
sary—one high school graduate
in the family is enough.
Wallace Allen seems to be giv
ing about all of his time to Ruth
C. since he came home from the
Merchant Marines. Looks like
you lost out again, Vera Lee.
Maxie, where did you get that
new name, “Puppy”? It couldn’t
be because you are always fol
lowing Nancy H. around, could
it? Say boy, you had better
watch that stuff.
Christine B. and Virginia K.
shore do like those Princeton
boys—well, Floyd D. and Wil
liam Earl O., anyway!
Marilyn T. was seen with How
ard A. at the Wilson football
game, and it seems they both had
a swell time.
Ruth, it seems kinda tough
now since Bobby Wood had to go
to Charleston, S. C. We’ve heard
lotsa people say you two had
been seen together quite fre
quently!
There seems to be a thick flame
of love burning between Carolyn
L. and Calvin W. this year—it
seems pretty bad that he had to
leave to go to school right when
all the fun started, doesn’t it,
Carolyn? Well, cheer up, old girl,
’cause maybe he will be home
soon!
Faye, I hear you are getting
around these days. It’s “Tut”
one night and Carlton the next.
How do you rate, gal? Tell us!
Lorraine, it seems there was a
slight mix-up the other night out
at the Drive-In—what happened
that night between you, Jack, and
Ben B.? You’d better watch that
stuff, ’cause you may wind up
with no boy friends at all!
Gene Anderson and Peggy
Strickland don’t think they stay
together enough during school
and dates, so they even go shop
ping together.
It seems that the Howdy Club
is getting to be a pretty popular
place on Saturday nights. What
say, Charlie W., Carolyn L., Trav
is, Bo, Ginger, Clip, Margie, Ben
ny, Verne, Charlie, Lou, Poodle?
Take along fifty cents next time
and maybe you can get in and
dance.
is so quiet and always staring
is so quiet and always starting
out the windows in Journalism—
couldn’t be he^s thinking about
Ann Butler, could it?
Say, what happened to Reba
and Elbert during the summer
vacation? We hear that Reba is
now going with Roy K. and El
bert with Joyce. That’s quite a
change, but they seem to be hap
py.
It seems we still have a few
couples left over from last year
—Mary Ann and D. J., Eunice
and Bobby, Ruth E. and Sonny
H., Jo and Paul, and we have
a few new ones this time, too—
Martha Ann and Bobby, Margie
and Herman, Barbara R. and
Howard C., and Dot Crawford
and Bill Taylor. We wonder
what Carolyn W. will think. Well,
we think you rrjake mighty cute
couples, so let’s try to make a
go of it.
J. P., how are you and Ben
nett these days? Heard you
stepped out on her the other
Sunday night and went over to
LaGrange to see some girls with
Charlie W. and Paul C.—How do
you like ’em?
Is everybody aware of our new
student this year? He sits in
French and stares at Ruth E. all
goo-goo eyed. How about this,
James P.?
Since this is all the dirt we
could dig up and all the gossip
we could eavesdrop on, we’ll cut
this short. So ’till next month—
“Can You Take It”?

Rev. James McChesney, of the
First Goldsboro Presbyterian
Church, was guest speaker at
the first sophomore class devo
tional of the year.
Schubert’s “Ave Maria” was
played as the class entered the
auditorium.
Mr. McChesney was introduc
ed by Kenneth Allen, vice pres
ident of the class.
Mr. McChesney’s topic was
concerning “Fear.” He stated
that a great many people dis
play by the way they eat or
talk or act the type of person
they are. It was his belief that
the things a man feared would
show the true person in him.
He disclosed some very interest
ing facts concerning the fears of
famous people. One of the most
surprising facts was that Shake
speare had been afraid of cats.
A letter from a famous jour
nalist was read to the class by
Mr. McChesney. It was on the
subject of the young and old
generations. After a short talk
on the verse of Scripture: ‘To
have the fear of the Lord, is
the beginning of wisdom,”
