October 24, 1947 THE LEXHIPEP Page 5 STRicTlV CoMFiDEtlliAL We. I. U. Hello! again. We’re really glad to be able to write our column as before. With the hurricane and the Trl-Hl-Y. Initiations we weren’t sure that we would survive, but “All’s Well That Ends Well”. (We’re members of Mrs. Hedrick’s English Class, as one can well see.) What a parade!!! We don’t think there’s ever been such a super duper one. So long, so pretty, and so well arranged!! We’ve got just loads of people who write to members of the opposite sex in other towns!! The first of these is Jo Dean Swing, who writes to a boy in Kannapolis!!! Kelly Beck carries some gorgeous pictures of a gal In a bathing suit, but this gal happens to be his, so only alook, boys; that’s as far as you’ll get!! We’ve heard that Jimmy Hurdle is now keeping horses in his jeep; at least, that’s the way It appeared once!!! If “Cootie’’ and Joanie make up, she’s going to the game with “Cootie” (Barium game), but otherwise it’ll be Jimmy Plott (so we hear). Wouldn’t it be nice to have a choice??? Well, after all the mix-up between Eanes, Sue, Mary Jane and Dillon, Dillon and Mary Jane have gone back together. Stick in there, Mary Jane; don’t let these Casanovas fool you!!! ’The Homecoming dance was really hot with jitterbugs from High Point. We’ve got plenty here, but they just won’t show their talents in public! Jimmy Grimes from ’Thomaavllle (President of T-ville High) has been dating first Juanita then Roberta, but it looks as if “Whitey” and Juanita are going back together (we hope) so that leaves Jimmy to Roberta all alone!! Blake Phillips and Ruth Tyslnger (Buddy Beck’s old flame) really have it bad!!! We’re learning fast; they tell us Ruth Kenny and Grampy McCrary are hitting it off!!! Did you see Carter holding Carolyn’s hand at the Junior game the other day’? They just don’t come any sweeter than Carter!!! Al.so at the game were Hal and Barbara doing a little better than the above couple!!! We guess that you’ve seen “Goo-Ball” chasing from the telegraph office to the post office. Well, if you would see the boy to whom all her mail comes and goes you’d understand, for he’s plenty cute!! (She met him at Boys’ State!!) Johnny, why don’t you give Betsy a break instead of stringing her along. She’ll never stop carrying the torch for you, so why not perk up!! Everyone really celebrated the Homecoming victory on Friday night such as; Pete and Peggy; Benny and Goo-Ball, and Johnnie and Mary Anne!! (in Johnnie’s car). Time certainly flew by, didn’t it, Peggy??!? MozeUe Perrell really has the looks and everything that goes with them, but she just won’t give the boys a break! These Ritchies don’t miss a thing. Ross is dating Nancy Foster (that cute majorette). At lunch the other day, we saw Susie spending her lunch hom with Bobby Newell (in the car), but we hear she’s nuts about J. T.!!! Who’s next in line with Rabb, or are Barbara and Mike still taking turns? Mike has so many that we don’t see how she affords all the stationery she uses!!! We knew our Miss L. H. S. of the month was bound to date somebody and so we inquired around and found she went with a cute feller named Jack. He surely has good taste when it comes to girls!!! It looks as if Miss Larkin is going to be well occupied during her stay here, or at least it looked that way the other night!!! It is always hard to stop, but if we must we guess this would be the best time. See you in November!

H. S. Holds Annual Homecoming Parade, October 18. Seems like Johnny N. and Betty Anne had their outs, but now, as anybody can see, everything is O.K. We hear some of the green freshmen are very envious of Betty Anne. The floats surely had to compete with a tough wind Friday. But with all the hard work behind the parade, it turned out perfect (as usual). We bet a lot of you boys would like to win a surprise package like Myrtle Smith. Lexington Takes First Loss from High Point. ' t Yellow Jackets Defeat Reidsville by Score of 19 to 0. Why didn’t Miss Hollingsworth let us know she was a jitterbug!! She can really beat it out, and is up to par on all the newest steps. Lexicon Subscription Drive. 2 YEARS MAKE Lexhipep Sponsors Pin-Up Boys; “Cootie’’ 'Wins. Nancy Poster surely is a cute fresh man. How ’bout it, Carroll Leonard? Or Nancy, is it Jack? Betty Jo is really true to Stinky, and I think that’s swell. Hats off to you, Betty Jo. Hurry back to school. Woody and Betsy. I know that evei-ybody has missed these two favorites in school— Woody, with his “Morning folks,” and Betsy with her cheerful smile for ev eryone. 3 YEARS MAKE Penny McCrary Presides Over Eigh teenth N.C.S.S.C.C. at High Point. . That good-looking, hunk o’ man Bill “Casanova” Eanes, seems to be following in his big brother’s foot steps, ’cause I hear he thinks the town of Valdese is plenty O.K. and aU the girls are wild over him. Myrtle Frazier is one cute gal. Boys, what’s the matter, are you bashful? Lala Koonts and Bill Everhart seem to have it bad. Am I right? Richard Todd has a line of girls after him a mile long—and all of ’em wait ing to know which one it will be. Let us in on it, won’t you? Gotta Man? If you have, hold him, sister—hold him. In this day and time if a male even looks at you consider yourself lucky. It’s a shame that all this beautiful moon has to go to waste—hint, hint. But just you wait—the war won’t last forever. After all, courtship is nothing more than a man running after a woman until she catches him. Did ya’ know? That Patsy, Gor don’s ambition is to shuffle cards?— Roosevelt will be President next year —there will be no holiday on Thanks giving this year—‘”rrot” Allen really “sends” the girls over at Salem Col lege—Wayne sent Penny an orchid on Halloween—Mary Ella has a chemical reaction in chemistry every day?

Girl: Yes, you see he tried to throw out my last boy friend and he was a wrestler.—Shelby Hi Outlook. “Daddy,” sobbed Janice as she ran crying into her father’s arms, “mommie just drowned ont of my kittens.” “Oh, that’s too bad now,” said her father consolingly. “But maybe she had to do it.” “No, she didn’t,” she sobbed; “she promised me I could.” Very much against her will she found herself in the arms of her fiance’s college pal. Before she could struggle free he had stolen a kiss. “Don’t!” she cried dramatically. “My lips are for another!” “Sure thing, honey; pucker up and I will give you another.”—Hi-Life, New ton, N. C. First teen-ager: “How do you like high school boys?” Second teen-ager: “Well, I And that Lenoir men are charming.
