Old House Takes
Leave Of School
(By Marilyn Best),
A strange house sprang up out
of the ground over night out in
back of G.H.S. last week. This
strange house was sitting nicely
out in front of the new gym and
before we knew it, it had changed
its location. How this house got
here we do not know but it’s very
puzzling you see, because where it
was located used to be the baseball
diamond. The old shabby house
looked so lonesome sitting out
there all alone.
After scouting around a little
bit we discovered the real reason
it was there. It seems as if the men
working on the new gym needed
the space the poor old house occu
pies. So they politely put it on roll
ers and moved it over on the base
ball diamond for a short time.

Campbell College Paper
Does Feature On Percise
Donald Coy Percise, son of Mr.
and Mrs. R. W. Percise of Golds
boro, was recently honored by his
fellow students in the following
feature story in the Campbell Col
lege semi-monthly paper, “Creek
Pebbles”.
“When you see ‘Peg’ around,
you’re looking at a smiling chap
with a joke and a laugh for every
body. ‘Peg’, whose real name is
Donald Coy Percise, was born near
Dudley on August 7, 1932. He has
a twin brother, Ronald. Don has
brown eyes and hair, stands 5’ 10”,
and weighs 179.
“ ‘Peg’ attended Goldsboro High
School where he performed in all
three major sports, playing one
year of varsity basketball and two
years of varsity baseball, rotating
between the positions of catcher,
first baseman, and pitcher. While
playing football for the ‘Earth
quakes’ he was given honorable
mention on the all-star Eastern N.
C. team. His athletic efforts re
warded him as he was elected to
the varsity club and served as vice-
president for one year.
“He was very active in school af
fairs. He was sports editor of the
school annual, manager of the
school printing shop, and also stage
manager of ‘Goldmasquers’ whose
presentation of ‘Trail of Tears’ won
state championship honors. He was
a member of the student council
for three years and served as social
chairman of his class for two
years.
“The most exciting moments of
his high school career were when
he kicked two of three after-touch-

down placement kicks to give

7-4 win over Wilmington for her
only conference loss of the season.
“Here are several pin-pointers
about him. For recreation, ‘Peg’
enjoys all sports (natch), including
fishing. His favorite meal consists
of roasting corn, peas, pie, and
potatoes toped off with plenty of
iced tea—even in winter time. His
pet peeve is silly women. Perry
Como and Jo Stafford rate high on
his movie star list; blue is his fa
vorite color. Being a business stu
dent, he informs me that account
ing is his favorite subject. The most
unforgettable person he has met
since coming to Campbell is none
other than ‘Boston Blackie’. ‘The
most admirable quality a person
can have is a good personality,’ he
says. His favorite pastime is riding
with that favorite ‘gal’ in a Chev
rolet convertible.
“When asked what he though of
the present world situation, he
summed it up this way: ‘I don’t see
why people have to fight, because
arguments can always be settled.’
“His ambition is to become a
successful businessman, marry and
settle down with his family in a
peaceful America.”

Ping Pong Race
The annual ping pong tourna
ment sponsored by the Wayne Rec
