Note: Coble’s Dairy borrowed it for its Hal loween Party. A spooky time was had by all. We’re learning fast; they tell us Ruth Kinney and Grampy McCrary are hitting it off!!! 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!!!

At the game Friday night, we saw Jack Albert with that cute blonde from Wilmington, Mary Dowtin. They both looked mighty happy. Margaret Hinon is certainly follow ing in her brother’s (Doug’s) foot steps, and Donald Bishop seems to follow her footsteps!!! The well-worn path to the hospital was trod quite a few times by Martha during the absence of the “Bull.” Lexington takes Monroe by score of 46-0. “Yellow Jackets” defeat Reidsville by score of 19-0. 3 YEARS AGO “Cottle” White is L.H.S. 1945 pin up boy. What was Jo Ann Blackwelder do ing down at the train station Sunday morning? Could it be the pigeons? Adelaide Giles and Richard are really in close harmony, especially in Glee Club. Betty Jo is really true to “Stinky,” and I think that’s swell. Hats off to you, Betty Jo. Have you seen “Millie”? (O la! la!) Boy, I hear she is—well, anyway she was at the fair!! Greensboro may as well disown Jean Sharpe, ’cause she is practically a member of our tribe. Isn’t that right, Jackie Lancaster? Charles Price was elected captain of the football squad.

If you want your name or your friend’s name to be in this column, just write it on a little slip of paper, and put it in the box, and we’ll guarantee you plenty publicity!!! Weil, now let’s get down to the main purpose of this column, ’cause we’ve got plenty of good ol’ juicy gossip for all you good little children—"ii ’rhe Wagner Twins (Hoyle and Foyle) are at it again. It seems that they have all the little 9th graders (girls) in quite an uproar!!! You should hear them yelling at the ball games. Ah, love!!!! We’ve just decided that Barbara and Hal are settled for life—and ever after, too!!! Wouldn’t it be nice if some of the other cute couples would follow suit??!!! Patty Sue Bates really looks lonesome now that Johnny Cook has gone to the Navy. Cheer up, Patty; he’ll be coming home on leave!!! Who’s the Sally we hear Sonny talking about all the time?? We hear he’s seriously planning a trip to see her this Christmas. Margaret Anne Powell, why don’t you quit flirting so much and settle down to one?

Phyllis Everhart and Nancy Koonts have got their eyes on two little ole sho’ nuff Georgie Crackers, namely Jimmy Adams and Bill Adams (cousins) Mary Jo Dorsett is kept busy ruijhing to and from the post office with letters to Lewis Saparilla. Just think—they’ve been keeping good companv since July!!! ’’ Is it true that Martha’s favorite tune is “Jim”??? Jimmy Dillon seems to think it’s fine!!!! “Jackie” Sink and “Nig” Clark can be seen together in halls nowadays'" Colleen Story informs us that Gilbert is still her fellow, but that Richard Hanner, her boy friend, lives in Asheville!!! How about that??? Well, we’re a little late in writing this, but Donald Bishop and Arm,:. Meachum are a mitey fine little ol’ pair. You two just keep it up!!! Have you all seen that beautiful watch Frances Carpenter h^ been sporting around here????! She surely is lucky to have such a generous fellow!! By the way, his name is J. C. Dockery. One of our cute under ciassman couples is Jean Story and Earl Weisner and aren’t they darling??!! ’ Betty Anne Everhart and Jack Mahaffey have been dating a right smart little bit lately!!! ^ ^ “Dimous” dates Jane Silliman when she comes home from Greensboro and it can’t be very serious, because he dates Nancy Vaughn Powell from Winston-Salem, too!!!! Kitty and Herbert seem to find an interest in each other now. They’re always together when the tenth graders gather at “Kitty’s” playhouse. Carolyn, Martha, Peggy, and Joanne B. had a picnic out at the Redwine’s cabin the other Wednesday night. Martha and Jimmy Dan, Caroln and “We can’t tell you who, but his Dad owns the bakery,” Peggy and “Dimous ” and Joanne B. and Carter were the lucky ones who went, but we hear a lot of other people have been doing the same. We see Ronnie Gordon and June Williamson together at the dances lately. What happened to Plott, June?? Jack Evans lost a thirty cent bet the other Friday night when Bobby Leonard dated Janice Johnson. Jack just didn’t think he’d do it"" Take it from us, though, Janice is one of the cutest girls in the ninth grade. If you ask us. Jack Binns is the best-looking boy in the ninth grade Kirksey Sink’s the lucky girl, we hear!!! Teacher of the month: Miss Hollingsworth is one of the best and friend liest teachers in L.H.S. She certainly is a fine example of a well-liked teacher. After dating Bob Goins a while, Billie Fritts decided John Sink is her one and only, so now they’re back together. Bobby Shy tie and Paul Lohr are sweating it out while Janet Brown decides which she likes best!!!! Ross said Mary Jane has changed her mind and thinks she wants to go with Dillon. But don’t go away, Ross, ’cause she may change her mind again!!! Sammy McBride and Sarah Lee Williamson seem to think an awful lot of each other!!! It seems that an Alumnus of L. H. S. doesn’t agree with us (the student body) about our wonderful school spirit and grand cheerleaders. All we have to say is—things have changed since that Alumnus was un here and we might add, for the better, too!!! ’ ’ We saw Flossie Abernathy and James Tate together Homecoming. Flossie certainly has been true to him since he’s been at Catawba!! You always know when M. T. Brown is home from Catawba because Margaret Hinson’s smile is just a little brighter!!! Jimmy Swing and Arlen Lashmit still have that “feeling” for each other “Mac” and Amelia surely enjoy each other ’cause their dating is starting on its second year!! Hope we haven’t made too many enemies this month, ’cause it’s all in fun, you know!!!! But if you are angry, we won’t be in town until the “deadline” for this column in our next issue.
