Wedding Ceremony
Held On Campus
The class entitled Interpersonal
Relationships has been busy lately
with a mock wedding. Both first
and second period classes sche
duled weddings for April 14. This
is a yearly event which helps
students to understand how the
average wedding is conducted.
In the first wedding, Diane
Swan was the bride and Trip
Streuli was the groom. Brenda
Summers was the maid of honor,
with Tobi Arledge, Helene Bia-
lek, Donna Hough, Pam Lawson,
and Theresa Love as brides
maids. The ushers in this first
period wedding were Tim Leitner,
Steve Flynn, Ray Essa, and Doug
Stover. The best man was Chuck
Jones, and the clergyman was
Tony Steele.
In the second wedding the
bride was Cheryl Buffington, and
the groom was Ashley Apple. The
clergyman was Chuck Fesmire.
The maid of honor was Auria
Green, and the bride’s maids
were: Tracey Wenner, Terry Mc
Cormack, Janice Hall, and Lynn
Stancil. The ushers in this mock
wedding were Tommy Few, Char
lie Shoffner, Mike Moore, Eric
James. The best man was Peter
Gratale.
Through the use of mock
weddings students which take
this course can understand the
duties and responsibilities of each
specific member of a wedding.
They learn what promises will be
needed and what real love means.
Etiquette for contemporary soci
ety is stressed along with how to
behave at a reception.
Every student has some type of
responsibility, whether it be di
rect, as the bride or groom are, or
simply as the mother or father of
the bride. The class fee takes care
of the cost of food for the
reception. The tuxedos were pro
vided by Formal Wear, and the
bride’s dress was provided by
Belk.
The Interpersonal Relation
ships class is a one semester
elective for seniors. It helps them
understand themselves and oth
ers.- Dating, love, engagement,
and the wedding itself are dis
cussed at length.

Sportscaster Advises
English Students
Recently, Charlie Harville has
visited Mrs. Hoffler’s English
classes, answering many ques
tions asked by students.
Having worked at Channel 8
from 1974 through 1975, after
which he worked on a book
encompassing the record of
sports in North Carolina, he is
presently the sportscaster for
Channel 2 News.
Charlie Harville has covered
everything excluding hunting and
fishing in North Carolina. His
book contains every major sport
in North Carolina. Several times
he had to go to the World
Almanac in order to determine
which schools had major sports
programs. He had to maintain a
schedule which included ten
hours a day for one year devoted
on his book.
The English classes could un
derstand the job of writing a book
or a paper much better after
Charlie Harville had talked to
them about the “long and tedious
job” of writing. It was understood
that a goal must be set before any
assignment can be finished.
Charlie “wrote the book so that
those interested in sports could
use it to discover things they
didn’t know before. . . to furnish
information and entertain the
reader.”
Other questions were answered
by the author and sportscaster.
When asked what the future of
the GGO is, he said: “1 don’t
think the date of the GGO ought
to be changed. The GGO needs a
director to work on the golfing
tournament all year. The Jaycees
don’t provide the continuous
steering all year round.” He also
said that Forest Oaks is more
difficult than Sedgefield, due to
lack of space for spectators.
He said that North Carolina has
one of the best women’s basket
ball programs. When asked who
the greatest athlete he ever saw
was he said it was Ace Parker,
from Norfolk, Va.
Charlie Harville majored in
English at High Point College,
and studied English and litera
ture “because 1 enjoyed it. . . I
deplore the fact that so many
people today can read or write so
well.” He also added that he isn’t
a journalist, but is instead a
sportscaster.
