April 6, 1939 THE FULL MOON Page 3 WHO’S WHO ■X. SARA DOBY Having one of the highest schol astic records in the graduating class, Sara Doby is naturally an outstanding student. She is known for her genial disposition and studi ous habits. Sara is president of the business section of the Journalistic club and business manager of the Full Moon. “I think movies are swell,” Sara laughs, “especially if Betty Grable or Robert Young is in them.” She reads a great deal and rates L. M. Montgomery as her favorite author. Too, she dances, plays tennis and likes baseball. As for food, try keeping her away from cream puffs! ■ Next year Sara plans to attend W. C. U. N. C., where she will study to become a sociology teacher. (Incidentally we think she might go to Hollywood and double for Martha Ray'e!) THOMAS HATLEY The new president of the elev enth grade—that’s Tom Hatley, de pendable, good-natured, and techni cal minded. Last year he was pres ident of the junior class. He is the council representative and former president of his homeroom, 11-1. Tom’s favorite movie stars are Mickey Rooney and Paul Muni. “But I like Spencer Tracy, too,” he adds. Since he is a “whiz” at math ematics, naturally that is his fa vorite subject. In sports, Tom chooses baseball, football, and swimming. When asked about food, “Aw, I take anything to eat,” he grinned. Thomas is president of the Sound club and can usually be found tink ering with radios. He wants to at tend a school of technology to study electrical engineering after gradu- EXCERPTS FROM SOPHS^ DIARIES Actually got a smile from Tommy today.

Bob and Margaret are getting along fine Bookkeeping Class Has Budget Project By Geraldine CHsco. ‘Eat, drink and be merry” seems to be the motto of the bookkeeping class. A recent project on dally ex penditures revealed the startling fact that the boys in this group spend an average of $4.41 per per son for recreation, while the girls spend $5.37 per person. The total spent for recreation was $47.34, the fifteen girls spending $25.30, and the five boys, $22.04. A close check-up on all forms showed the amounts spent on clothes, school supplies, church, and recreation. Commenting on the project, Mr. Propst, commercial teacher, said, “On the whole the girls did harder, neater, more accurate work than the boys.” A third practice set, scheduled for the first of April, will include the use of regular business forms, such as invoices, notes, bills, club books, pass books and cash books.
