Miss Eula Tuttle, director, replied, “Our plans will be the same as in years past.” Mrs. Virginia Toenes, the assist-, ant choir director, left during sec ond semester last year but returned. has How times do change! That statement is definitely proved by a glance into some of the old HIGH LIFES. Every class has had its problems. The graduating class of 1938 was 1 composed of 68 people. Everyone was worrying where to put the “crowd” of 150 incoming sopho mores! I Also in 1938 homeroom 303 w’on first prize in the clean-up cam paign. Their prize—three gold fish with accompanying bowl. Just a year earlier in 1937, cheerleader Harold Ginsberg was going all out for GHS. He put off an appendectomy operation in hopes of cheering in the Greens- boro-Durham game. All was for naught, however, and he was rush ed to the hospital before game time. Here’s hoping history doesn’t repeat itself in tonight’s game. Only 16 years ago in 1938 Mey ers was advertising “dancing frocks” for $6.98. Cotton school dresses were $3.98 and wool skirts, $2.98. Don’t get excited though, girls. The evening dresses sported sleeves and high necks w’ale the dresses and skirts were a stylish knee length. 1927 was a historic year. “Greensboro’s newest hotel, the King Cotton,” opened with what HIGH LIFE described as “a de lightful dinner dance.” In that same year at Senior High, German I was substituted foi- Spanish I. j Ten years, later in 1937 the Playmasters were going musical.' They presented a Gilbert and Sulli- i van operetta with Miss Lottie Burn-' sides assisting. ' j For all cowboy fans 1930 was ai bargain year. “Billy, the Kid,” star- i ring Johnny Mack Briow’pi was! showing at the National theater for the admission price of 30 cents, i One may well laugh at the hap-| penings of these bygone days, but it is interesting to think that per-1 haps 15 or 20 years from now peo-j i)le will be laughing at this issue' of HUH LIFE and all the *uni;v' clothes worn “way back then.' McNairy Tours Europe During Summer Vacation Gay Paris! Rome in the Moon light! Blue Mediterranean! Queen Elizabeth in Buckingham Palace! These things sound faintly remi- nescent of Europe. One of Senior’s teachers was very fortunate in that she spent her summer vaca- tioii touring Europe. It was a long awaited day when Miss Dorothy McNairy and a party of 18 other Americans sailed from New York City on the “Constitu tion.” Surprisingly, very few peo ple were seasick during the nine days they spent crossing. They spent 67 days in all touring Italy Switzerland, Germany, France. Holland, Norway, Sweden, Den mark and Scotland. “The old world atmosphere was most impressive, especially the antiquated castles and gardens,” remarked Miss McNairy. “We found the people throughout the continent very friendly and for the most part familiar with our lan guage.” The Scandanavian countries re minded our traveling math teacher most of America. She remarked that their standards of living are very high, and that they start teaching English very early in the schools. Miss McNairy related that the Europeans dress very much the same as Americans do. However, in Holland, wooden shoes are still worn and in Voldam, a Dutch vil lage, they wear the native costumes The major transportation is bicy cles. It’s nothing unusual to see r lady dressed in finery peddling a bicycle down Main Street. “Paris is certainly the most beautiful city in the world,” ex presses Miss McNairy, “but my favorites are Rome and London. During the four days we spent in Paris, we visited the Louvre, the follies, and just spent most of the time sightseeing.” I at:n students perhaps would be interested in her trip to the Forum where Julius Caesar was murdered by Brutus and where Marc Antony made his famous oration. Their guide had written a book on Roman history and was able to give them a lot of extra information. Pompeii was another of the sights which they took in. She continued saying that in every country, meals are served with a formality not found in America. Waiters in formal attire serve full course dinners to de light any gourmet. While wine is usually served, they were able to get water upon request. Shakespeare’s country birth place was on the agenda, also Anne Hathaway’s cottage. It had just been rehatched, a job requiring 4 tons of straw. Another promi nent place in the history of litera ture was Stokes Poges where Thomas Grey wrote “Elergy in a Country Churchyard.” While on the Riveria, Miss Me- Nairy said she had a chance to view the widely publicized bikini bathing suit. In Cannes, France, she made her farewell to Europe. It was a trip long to be remembered. lleiiiider&Mdnn Nolar Co.
