Yes it’s that cute, dependable, and witty senior, Zalotta Harris, chos en as Who’s Who in our first issue of the Full Moon. Zalotta, better known as Z\, Zi” got an early start in her high school career by being elected president of the Sophomore Tri- Hi-Y, cheerleader, and a home room officer. . As a junior she was tapped in to the National Honor Society, of which she is vice president, and this year she is editor of the mil Moon and a member of the liter ary staff of the Crossroads. Although she has no special hobby, she enjoys reading and list ening to bop music. In dramatics she can portray any adoles^nt character with great skill. You surely remember her in that hilarious role of “Bonnie Blue m the Junior play, “The Calamity She was a member of the Ninth Grade Chorus and this year a member of the Mixed Chorus. Za- lotta has been a steady member of the Tri-Hi-Y and Boosters Club for four years, and two years a member of the Black S^rt^her down to a broiled steak, a salad, and cantalope and just watch that hungry expression dis- aooear.

Yes, you guessed, it’s Wade Smith, co-captain of the Bulldogs. Wade was chosen Who’s Who this month because of his outstanding abilities. You’ve seen Wade in action in sports since he was a Freshman. Wade has participated in football four years, basketball three years, track two, and baseball one. Al though he is outstanding in each, football is his favorite. This year tops them all with the team’s winning streak going strong with Wade as fullback. Now president of A.H.S., Wade has also been vice president and secretary. This summer he re turned with the title of Governor of Boys’ State. He is very ac tive in his church, also in Mon ogram and Boosters clubs, and in Hi-Y, where he has been presi dent and chaplain. He won the “I Speak For Democracy” contest as a Junior and was a finalist in the essay contest on “World Peace.” Talent seems to surround this versatile fellow too. He can act, sing, and paint. Wade was Brad in the Junior play, “The Calamity Kids” and proved to be quite a lover. For two years he has been in Mixed Chorus and the Boys’ Double Quartet. This aided in his becoming a member of the Modern Music Masters last spring. Wade had a large job during the time the prom was being planned, as chairman of th^ art work. The result was the beautiful mural and a beauti ful prom'. Give Wade his blonde-headed girl friend, his dog, the “Bel Air,” any record of Roy Hamil ton, and all the food he can eat, especially iced tea, and you will find him quite content. Most of his abilities have been named, except something about his character. His friendliness, willingness, and dependability will be missed next year. Any college that gets him will be lucky; don’t you think so? Student: Golly, my dates are just pouring in. Friend: Yeah, so are mine . . . drip by drip. Keep Up With the New Look — at — THE BEAUTY NOOK . Phone 780 : Salisbury Ave. AHS Takes on Brighter Look A TT S Viac annniroH u i. . . . . . A.H.S. has acquired a “new look” during the summer months. All over the school things are looking brighter and cleaner to face the new school year. Painters have transformed the dingy rooms into a more colorful assortment of pastel colors. Matching blinds and new desks have been placed in most of the rooms. Records of past “love-affairs” written on lockers have now been covered with a shiny coat of gray. The floors have been shellacked and sanded until they look al most new. New steps between first and second fioors have taken the place of the once creaking, sagging ones. One of the biggest improve ments has been the cleaner ap pearance of the walls and floors around rooms 12 and 18. For many' years this has been the eye-sore of A.H.S. Last but not least, is the new color-tones of the library and auditorium. The library is now painted in green, brown, and yel low; and the auditorium is a light blue. Teachers Honored By Woman's Club The Albemarle Woman’s Club entertained at Open House at the Helderman Cottage on Septem ber 13, with the teachers of the city schools as honor guests. In the living room where the guests were received, the mantle was decorated with brass candel abra holding yellow tapers and an arrangement of yellow archil- lea. A bouquet of white gladioli and yellow marigolds, an ar rangement of geranium red roses, and a brass epergne holding six yellow candles with yellow glad ioli and snapdragons were used at other interesting points through the rooms. Delicately colored sandwiches, cake squares, iced with pink rosebuds, salted nuts, and Rus sian tea and coffee were served to the 100 guests who called dur ing the appointed hours. On the average over 250 stu dents come to the library a day. ALBEMARLE DO-NUT SHOPPE Queen Anne Sandwighes and Pies Old Salisbury Road Albemarle, N. C. WADE JOHNSON MOTORS Albemarle, N. C.
