Page 4 THE GRYPHON Tlntrsday, October 28. 1971 Proud Eleventh Graders Select New Class Officers keeping minutes as well as glv- Carol3Ti Bishop and Richard Bulluck are October’s super charged Rotary Couple, Active Students Selected As Unique Rotary Couple The opening of the 1971- 1972 school year signaled the beginning of new changes, such as a new administration, short er school days, and last but by no means least, new class officers. The class of ’73 in particu lar feels that its class is led by four of the best officers which have ever graced the halls of RMSH, and although their installation was somewhat late, they still hold high expectations for their class. President Alfred Davis holds the lead office, and the calling of class meetings, as well as Initiating class projects are just a few of the responsibilities that fall in his hands. This hard working junior is the son of the Reverend and Mrs. Frank Davis. Alfred’s back-up is the Vice President, who this semester is Ray Brinn, the son of Mr. and Mrs. R.T. BrInn. This indus trious young man was the only candidate to petition for his of fice and be successful last year. He will be the President’s “right hand man.” Secretarial duties will be ac cepted byGinger Arnold, daugh ter of Mr, and Mrs. J, L.ArnoM, ing support to class prouects ter of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Arnold, Keeping minutes as we 11 as giving support to class proj ects will occupy the majority of her time. The Class of ’73’s financial situation will be carefully con trolled iTy Treasurer Jim Har ris, son of Mr. and Mrs, J.W. Harris, He hoMs a most impor tant office, since the Junior class must prepare for the Junior-Senior. Therefore, Jim felt it was Imperative that the magazine campaign went well. The first Item on the agenda of class business was the maga zine campaign. These officers made a circuit of the Junior homerooms, urging students to sell their magazines, and bring their money. President Alfred Davis has had minor problems finding time fcjr his co-workers to meet. This Is not surprising, since these officers are also ac tive outside of schooL The next project will be raising spirits and floats for Homecoming. This is a seemingly monumen tal task, but with a slate of officers like the Class of 1973 has. It js certain great things will be accomplished. The month of October is al most over, but who makes up the Rotary Couple for this month? Two very industrious and friendly RMSH students, Carolyn Bishop and Richard Bulluck, are this month’s Ro tary Couple. CAROLYN BISHOP Carolyn Bishop, described In one sentence, has all the quali ties one wouU want to find in another person. She Is versa tile, friendly, and involved in a 11 that Is happening around her. One might often see her rushing through the halls to beat the bells to her classes. Being so active, she has hard ly any spare time of her own. Besides being president of the Booster Club, and secretary of the Student Organization, she Is an active member of the First Baptist Church, Senior Debs, and Senior Girl Scouts, Bike riding, sewing, and going to the beach are her main Interests. Carolyn’s reaction to her honor was,“I don’t believe it!” She feels that this school year is one in which there Is not much time for extra-curricula activities. Commenting on the administration, she feels that it has listened to the students and has done a lot of good for the schooL Carolyn also feels that if RMSH students showed more school spirit, that we wouM have a greater school After graduation, Carolyn hopes to attend Wake Forest University or St. Mary’s Col lege, • RICKY BULLUCK Richard Bulluck Is an inquisi tive young guy who is naturally friendly toeveryone. He is well- known by everyone as president of the Student Organization and as a truly great person. His briefcase Is his trademark. Leading such a busy schedule, Richard still has time for fun and jokes. He is a member of the Booster Club, has been on the . Varsity Basketball and Baseball teams, and is in the band. To no one’s surprise, his one and only hobby is antici pating and predicting the reac tion of girls—called “girl study”, Richard was elated by his honor. When asked for an over all comment, he dwelt on his job as president of the Student Organization. "Although it is sometimes frustrating, I like my work. It presents many “once in a lifetime” oppor tunities, I come in contact with more people than probably any one in Senior High,” Richard also feels that the students should become more Involved with schoolhappenlngs and show more school spirit. After graduation, Richard hopes to attend U,N.C,-Chapel HilL But, jokingly, five-foot, ten-inch Bulluck might “go to U.C,L.A, if it offers me a basketball scholarship,” Congradulations to two great people! RMSH Students Battle To Receive Halloween Prizes As Halloween rolls around a- gain this year RMSH students prepare to spend a sleepless night in the pumpkin patch, Linus and his friend Charley Brown invite all those inter ested in receiving their Hallo ween gifts from The Great Pumpkin, Although, through the past years, the Great Pumpkin has not visited this pumpkin patch, Linus is very hopeful that he will come this year. Among the gifts the Great Pumpkin will give this year are the usual candies and toys for the kiddies and for aU those who have been good this year. There will be a special prize awarded this year to the most typical sophomore costume! Of course Linus feels that he will receive the prize for being such a devoted believer. There is going to be lots of competition this year for RMSH students. They must prepare for the shock of the super sophs? Among their selection of cos tumes this year is the tradi tional ghostly ghost costume, complete with sheet and as sorted masks, the wicked witch costume complete with four In the floor magical broom.

But the pro grams depict witches falsely. There are good witches, and there are bad witches.

The image of old, uglywitch- es slumped over a giant brew ing kettle, stirring the “potion” with a large stick, and throwing in bat’s wings, frog eyes, and “purple, tow-eyed, no-nosed nothings” is absolutely a myth, and no more. First, witches aren’t ugly old hags with warts on their noses. Second, stirring anything with a stick is un sanitary, And third, bat’s wings, frog eyes, and nothings have no hexing powers at all!
