More-Meat Morgan
As Mr. Gibson has said, give sentences with meat in them. Now
ihis could easily apply to one of our good-natured boys whose name
s Lewis (Hootchie) Morgan.
After the baseball game in Thomasville last Tuesday, the boys
vent down to get something to eat. All the boys went into the
:afe. Each one was ordering something when “Buck” Mabry noticed
‘Hootchie” leave the cafe. He remarked to the others that Lewis
lad gone out, but no one paid any attention, they being busy.
After finishing the meal all the boys went back to the car. There
’ hey found “Hootchie” eating. They all inquired where he got the
f “It’s just like this,” explained “Hootchie”. “I went in the A &
^ Store and gave them the old hard-luck story. I wabbled in like I
vas exhausted. I leaned against the counter and told the man that
was far away from home, had no money, hungry, and that I would
ippreciate anything that he would give me to eat. He asked me
vhich I had rather have, pork and beans or potted ham.
** “I told him, ‘If you don’t mind. I’ll take potted ham because I
■Hon’t have anything to open the pork and beans with’.
“So he gave me two cans of potted ham with the keys to open
_ hem with and a loaf of bread to accompany them. I thanked him and
old him that I certainly did appreciate them.”
Girls Go Salisbury
The girls’ basketball squad spent Friday afternoon in Salisbury,
j_ittending the May Day festival at the high school and a camp-fire
upper at Catawba college.
The girls, dressed in blue and white play suits, participated in
■ he various sports: tennis, volley ball, bowling, soft ball, and games.
Leaving the high school at about 5 o’clock, they drove over to
j^atawba college for supper. There they played “get-acquainted”

make a good showing. After seeing “Smiling” Jack play, we can

also coming along nicely, with daily workout in the gym.

, Tommy Swanner, the all-around good little boy certainly did
et the ha, ha, and whah, whah from a group of baseball players the
ther day.
■' While on the trip to Thomasville, one of the boys remarked that
here certainly was a pretty field of wheat. Others gave some com-
I'^ients about it also.
Then Tommy said, “It will soon be ready to mow, won’t it?”
^oUey Ball Tournament
The volley ball tournament will be played off between the classes
u^.iis week (freshman, sophomores, juniors, seniors, and twelfth grade).
These games should be interesting, as there are good players in
ach class, and the teams will have real competition,
i All these games will be played in the gym after school. Everyone
if invited to come out to see these games.
Hallie Lowder, Grace Cranford, and Mildred Austin have no
certain place on the court. The one thing you can be sure of is
,, i that they won’t be in their own position.
