February 28, 1947 THE LEXHIPEP Page 5 LEXHIPEEPERS WE.LU. Valentine’s is over, and Cupid has let quite a few of us down as well as helping a few! Bill and Pat are now no longer one but two. Forget your pride, chil- luns, ’cause tfme’s a wasting!! Special announcement to all girls!! Jack Swaim is now a free man!! Another wilted affair is Becky’s and Pete’s, but Bill J. has stepped in to brighten things up!! There’s your chance, girls! Valentine may come and Valentine may go, but Jane and Zacky go on forever!! As a peace treaty, “Stinky” gave Betty Jo a box of candy, kind of feller to have!! That’s the Mary Sue was another lucky gal who received a box of Valentine candy from her O.A.O.! Luck to ya! We hope you will Barbara R. seems to be playing the field, soon come across the right one!! Somehow or other these bachelors don’t seem to understand the girls who have fellers, and we think it wise to leave out some of their wisecracks, ’cause .some gals are sensitive!! “Whltey” Everhart has finally overcome his shyness. Come on, “Whitey”; we all know you like Juanita and she is darling! If you have ever noticed and wondered about the group of giggling and swooning girls at the freshmen wing every morning and at noon, I’U tell you the reason why. They are just waiting to get a glance at that swoonful Hoyle Wagner. Hoyle, if you are all so wonderful as that, why don’t you break down and give ’em a chance!!? Why don’t some of you eighth graders (boys) make a grab for “Susie” Thomason (Stinky’s sister). She surely is cute. “Dodie” Penland seems to be the apple of R. H. Leonard’s eye. Well, well, it has happened again! I see Johnnie and “Mike” walking down the hall with that old look for each other. “Shoemaker,” why don’t you make up your mind???? Is it Amelia Brown or Carolyn Koonts? (Or Mary Anne). Lorrene Mobly and Odell Watson seem to make sweet music together! Where is Doris? Carter, you seem to be quite a thing in L. H. S. I hear that the girls are seriously thinking about starting a fan club for you. Who does Jimmy Dillon pine for? Could it be that he is still carrying the torch for Mary Jane Shirley?? Lloyd Russell and Bessie Lee Rurratt (8th graders) make quite a cute couple. No kidding, Russie, she is tops!! “Horsie Allen,” why don’t you quite flirting with all the girls and settle down to one? You’ll never get anywhere that way. (Do you have any sug gestions, Nancy Streetman?) You can still find Pattie on the back row at the theater if you want her, except Joe keeps his eye on her constantly!!! Maxine sho’ keeps her word! At least she makes it look that way! Don, did you ever think to look and see if she really cut that pretty blond hair??? The next sparkler will most probably be on the hand of Jackie Trexler, put there by her better half, Herman Lofton!! ’The Conrads should have paid Henry instead of the nurse, ’cause he and Judy surely did a good job of taking care of the children. (Experience is the best teacher.) (That is on weekends.) Lexington’s loss and Roanoke’s gain! Charlie Williams spent last week end with Annetta! Absence makes the heart grow fonder!!! Have you seen it? You couldn’t have missed it and I do mean the Williams’ new Bulck and usually “Tinker’s” behind the wheel!!! (Who could ask for more?) We guess “Teeny” and Amelia and their crowd are glad Jane was home this week-end ’cause it always means a “big-to-do” and later hours!!! All Cupid had to do for Margie and Jack, and Geraldine and Nobel, was to renew their affair which has been going on for quite a while!! We’d like to know who that good-looking boy is Jackie Sink kids all the time! If you’ll look in the gym you might get a glimpse of him and Jackie too. They’re always together!!!! Have you played “Rhythm”? Just ask any Senior in second period how, but we wouldn’t advise you to play it around Mrs. Hedrick!!! Have you heard “Let the Good Times Roll”? Well, that’s what hap pened one Sunday night in Johnnie McCrary’s car with “Mike,” “Bensy,” Mary Anne Hunt, Becky, Pete, and “Bull” and Martha. (Just ask Mary Anne Hunt!!!) The period’s about up, and I think we’re disturbing the library, so we’ll leave you for now; but we’ll be back with more next month!!! the eyes and ears of LEXINGTON HIGH Remember When! —Tommy Young 1 YEAR AGO Don Leonard surely does like mak ing eyes at Jean Lohr. Well, what do you know! June Williamson and Jack Kivett have up a case (and what a case!). “Star” Giles!! What would we do without her!! She really rings those goals, doesn’t she, “Rabbit”? He’s one of her regular spectators. Jackie Lancaster surely keeps up with Jerry Butler!! (So does Neil Kearns.) Wow!! She’s a knockout! “Ern” also tells me that Juanita Smith has a crush on him?? Did you know Mack lias a secret lover?? Well, he has, and she’s from Raleigh and a slick chick, too. This has been going on for quite some time, and it’ll probaKy come as quite a shock to some people or rather one person. Quietly strolling home from the Youth Center the other night were James Tate and Mary Jo Sharpe. Ah, Spring! It must have even hit him a little early at that!! Lexington Splits Thrillers With Concord (February 6, 1946). Asheboro Bows Twice to Lexington (February 8, 1946). Jackets Share Games With ICan- napolis (February 12, 1946). L. H. S. Plays Host to Henderson Ball Clubs (February 15, 1946). Lexington and ThomasvUle, Old Rivals, Split Games (Pebguary 25 1946). 1946 Lexicon Goes to Press (March. 1946). 2 YEARS AGO Martha H. and Hubert Olive make quite a combination. They’ve been going together quite some time. It must be wonderful. Say, Jackie Wheeler (a new fresh man), just how many girls do yon think you can have?? You’re not go ing to get any more by fiirting with all of ’em. Why don’t you pick out a certain one? That candy must have been aw fully good you got from “Pockets” for Valentine, Jan. I wonder why more of the boys didn’t show their affec tions by giving candy to their “one and only.” All those wolverines have their eyes on Bill Hedrick, it seems. Give the gals a thrill, William! Plash! A new couple in L.H.S. Guess who it is? It’s Jack Swaim and Mary Nell Lopp. Good going’ kids. Lexington’s Girl Yellow Jackets Vic torious Over Weak Junior Home Girls (January 31, 1945). Scouts Take Over the City (Febru ary 8, 1945). Yellow Jackets Sting T-ville Bull dogs (February 25, 1946). L.H.S.’s Dream of Youth Center Realized (February 28, 1945). 3 YEARS AGO (There wasn’t any gossip of inter est to students in school now, so, here, for your final approval, is a little of A. Sapp’s corn for 1944.) 1st Moron—Where do you work? 2nd Moron—In Lifesaver factory. 1st Moron—Why aren’t you working today? 2nd Moron—We’re making holes today. God made the world and rested. God made man and rested. God made woman and neither the world, man, nor God has rested since. Cy S—Just between you and me and the lamp post, what do you see in that girl? Snake-Eye—Not a thing. But with the girl between me and the lamp post—well, it’s a different story. Did ya know: A stingy girl is one who wouldn’t give you a peep if she owned Lookout Mountain. tme ~^ack Swaim Small boy: Father said, “Will you please lend us your radio tonight?” Neighbor: With pleasure. Sonny. Are you giving a party tonight? Small Boy: No, sir; we want to get some sleep. Janet: What are you doing for your cold? Jim: Nothing! What has it done for me? Boy: I proposed to that girl and would have married her if it hadn’t been for something she said. 2nd Boy: What did she say? Boy: She said “No.” “Farmer Brown, i can’t come out to see you any more.” “Why, what’s the matter Doc?” “Why, every single time I come out, your ducks insult me.” —’The Cannon Report, Kannapolis N. C. Kilroy was here and said: Never date biology students; they enjoy cutting up too much. The football hero is all right; he will tackle anything. The tennis man is harmless; he enjoys a racket. Watch out for the baseball man; he hits and runs. Be careful of dramatic students; they usually have several good lines. Always let band members talk about themselves; they enjoy tooting their horns. Keep away from track men; they are too fast. Beware of math students; they know figures. History students are good to have around; they love dates. Be careful when you are with e chemistry student; he is always blow ing up. Beware, girls, of Kilroy.—The Moun taineer, Lenoir, N. C.
