February 19, 1954 High Life Page Seven Term-Paper Topics Seniors, have you had those nag ging term-paper headaches lately? Well, you shouldn’t let anything so trivial make you blue. In fact if you’ll use one of the following sub jects for a theme, you’re sure to en joy writing it! Seniors Have Musical Jobs The life history of an English flea is certain to be both interest ing and beneficial. Who knows when you might have to open up an English flea circus for a living? This little subject Is to be enlarged by David Fry. Now some of you more sports conscious students should follow Perry Teague’s example and write on English “rickets.” For you boys who would like to have girls flocking around you, write on hypnotism like Tommy Andrews. You’ll surely learn how to bewitch the opposite sex one way or the other! Marion Thompson is going to pursue further a favorite hobby of hers—palmistry. So if .any one has any perplexing problems, Marion will be willing to hold his hand. To the more sensible minded souls there are subjects such as radar, atomic energy, and psycholo gy. “Romance of a String” and “The Ups and Downs of Hard Knocks” sound like promising themes. But the students will stay at the Hamil- that you decide upon, make sure it will baffle your teacher! BLUE BIRD CLEANERS 1613 MADISON AVE. Orchid Service From the front of the- auditorium come the sweet strains of “Chop sticks,” played by two teachers of piano, Anna Huffine, left and Mary Ann Hill. Morgan Escapes To Mounfain Home; Classes Investigate Scenic Beauty Some faculty members are very traction of “them thar hills” and lucky, as proved by Mrs. Louise after wangling an invitation went Morgan, English teacher at GHS, themselves who possesses the perfect hide away to which she can flee from the irate parents and disgruntled stu dents who have learned the sad news after she has graded the last exam and distributed the final re port card. Even though Mitchell County does not lead the State in wealth, it does afford the perfect setting for summer vacations spent in ut ter seclusion. And so, the little town of Penland, North Carolina, now boasts not only a world-famous crafts school but the summer home of the Morgans as well. The originally planned home of six rooms expanded until it now contains seven bedrooms, and all of its spaciousness is not going to waste. Last spring some of Mrs. Mor- Igan’s more curious students longed to discover the secret of the at- EDMOND’S DRUG STORE Summit Shopping Center PHONE 4-1586 Complete Drug Service The group, after winding their I way around the ever-circling road, finally came upon the handicraft school tucked snuggly between Yellow Mountain and Bailey’s Peak. The news of the trip’s success was soon spread far and wide, and a sophomore English class is now making plans for the journey to the Morgan mountain home. The question of the hour is how 31 stu dents, one student teacher, and five or six mothers are going to fit comfortably into 7 bedrooms. It is the general opinion, however, that those who are so eager to see Penland will find some way to pro vide accomodations. PRINCIPAL A. P. ROUTH WAS accompanied to the School Admin istrators’ Convention in Atlantic City by Mr. David Heiberg, Mr E. Frank Johnson, and J. T Sea- well last Sunday. Superintendent Ben L. Smith and Mr. E. D. Idol, superintendent of Guilford County Schools, made the trip by train. Mr. Philip J Weaver, assistant superintendent of Greensboro city schools, traveled with his brother from Durham. Teaching as a hobby and for ex perience are reasons for the tem porary professions chosen by two seniors, Anna Neese IJuffine and Mary Ann Hill. Mary Ann, who plans to continue her piano-teaching career after ma joring in music at Woman’s Col lege, is now teaching 13 students. The boys and girls, ranging in age from the first grade through the ninth, come to Mary Ann’s home for their weekly lesson. Combining learning and teaching, Mary Ann still takes music from Mrs. B. F. Ledford, a practice she has continued for 13 years. She is quite an old hand at teaching since she has been doing so since she was 13. Leaving school at one o’clock en ables Mary Ann to teach all after noon in addition to Saturdays, the GHS choir this year, an honor the GHS choir this year, and hono:" sought by many. Last year she played for the glee club. Although she spends many long hours teach ing, Mary Ann has time lo be sec- retary-treasiu-er of the Signettes and a member of Euterpe Sym- phonia. Anna Neese is relatively a new comer to the teaching profession, as she only started it this fall as a hobby. Teaching in the after noons after school and on Satur days uses up most of hqr free time. Anna’s future plans are incom plete, she says, although there will probably be a large space for music in them. She also takes music from Mrs. Ledford, and has been taking for 11 years. Combining her piano with strong alto voice, Anna has been in the choir for two years. In her sophc*- more year she was accompanist for the boys’ chorus. She also plays ^the piano for the Sunday School at Grace Methodist Church. She is now serving as president of the GWI social club, to which she has belonged for three years. She is also a member of Euterpe Symphonia and Future Teachers of America. D. O.

Of course, it’s JOHNSON & AULBERT—the Complete Men’s Store—located at 120 North Elm Street, where everything and- any thing can be found. Right now, an especially good buy is in the al ways beautiful and always popular charcoal brown suit. This spit is not ^ only “The Thing” in high school, but is considered quite the fashion on any college campus. Just look at WALLACE FREEMON next time he wears his, and see just how nice he looks. You can buy one at J & A for only $55. I went in the other day to look around a bit and saw something which I think some of you fellows might like: a new young man’s hat, factory blocked, and with a narrow brim. These hats could look mighty flattering on some of you. And be sides, why let DONNIE EVANS be the only one in school to wear a “topper?” Go' on down and let Mr. Johnson show you one. I guarantee that you’ll like it! Mighty nice are the SURRETT- WILL slacks, which, incidently, are moth-proofed for the life of the garment, so Mom can stop worrying in the summertime. These flannel slacks sell for just $15.50 and come in many beautiful shades. For school wear, you can’t beat a cotton sport shirt. Available at J & A in a large assortment of colors, sizes, ..and styles, witji or without the button-down collar. These shirts are made by WRINKLE-SHED and can be worn for days without signs of wrinkling. They seem to be favorites with everyone, for on any day you can see numerous people wearing them. VAN WOLTZ and HAL MC- NEELY have several, and they both seem to like them. Another marvelous buy at J & A is the new lightweight gabardine topcoat by RAINFAIR, selling for just $17.75. This topcoat can serve many different purposes, such as keeping the cold out in February, the winds away in March, and the rain off in April. Just ask GENE SMITH to show you his. Just remember, gentlemen, take w. tip, and make the trip to JOHN SON & AULBERT CLOTHING STORE for the latest in young men’s fashions. Heard By Merchants lOE 1. Marion Lewis Bake Shop 2.
