STUDENTS OF THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER
The Students of the Month of November follows the tradition of
being good citizens, full of school spirit, and some of the friendliest
people at Grier.
Candy Thomas was our seventh grade Student of November. Candy
lives at 548 Deerwood Drive, has a brother and a sister, and is in Mrs.
Grigg’s homeroom.
From the eighth grade we have one of our monitors, Connie Hudson.
637 Downey Place is where Connie lives with her parents, two sisters,
and dog. Mr. Kessler is Connie’s homeroom teacher.
For the first time we have two students from one grade. Cy Davis,
also a monitor, is one of our ninth grade students. Cy and his family of
six brothers and a sister live at 1806 Bradford Street. Mr. Smith is Cy’s
homeroom teacher.
Our last student of the month is Mike Worsham, another ninth grader.
Mike was in Mrs. Layne’s homeroom, but now he has moved to Raleigh.
Mike made many new friends here and we hope he will have as many
friends if not more in Raleigh.
CLASS OFFICERS 68-69
The class officers of 68-69 were elected by the ninth grade students
on their standards of ability and qualifications. They are all active in
school organizations as the Student Council, Pep Club, and Athletics.
So, the newly elected class officers are President, Penny Gibbs, Vice-
President, Bruce Hendricks, Secretary, Mike Worsham, and Treasurer,
Ann Carpenter.
To show their ability they sponsored a pleasurable and spirited
Christmas Dance. In the future they will sponsor what we hope will be
an enjoyable Graduation Banquet for the ninth grade.
“TURKEY FEATHERS”
In keeping with the Thanks
giving season, Grier held it’s second
successful dance. The theme of
“Turkey Feathers” inspired a
“Thanksgiving” mood, with the
help of the decorations. The
Decoration Committee really did
much work to make the gym look
like the first Thanksgiving, with
a horn of plenty, pumpkins, corn
stalks, and colorful orange and
yellow crepe paper.
A special added attraction was
offered at the dance. The lucky
winner of a “turkey” was Debbie
Adair of the eighth grade. Bet it
tasted good!
Music was supplied by the
“Psychotics”, a five-member com
bo from Lowell. It was very enjoy
able. While talking to them
individually, the students found
them witty and funny.
By the laughter and smiles on
everyone’s face, the dance certainly
was a great success.
Now that Christmas is over we
have asked Santa to let us have
some letters to put in our paper.
He was kind enough to send us the
following:
Dear Santa,
Please send me a new twenty
gauge shotgun, a grenade launcher,
a thirtymm machine gun, and the
thousand feet of barbed wire.
Thank you.
A monitor
Dear Mr. Clause,
I big boy this year. Me would
like a Johnny toy maker. Major
Mat Mason’s friend Captain Laser,
and a Barbie Doll, and some real
sideburns.
Your real true friend,
D. Keener
P. S.
Please don’t renew my sub
scription to Playboy this year,
because my mommy found out.
Dear Santa,
Please send me ten million army
men, and one thousand atom
bombs.
My name,
Ho Chi Min
Dear Santa,
I love you. If you will send me
a boy, I will love you even more.
Your secret admirer,
K. B.
Dear Santa,
Please send me the following:
three bags of humbug, a case of
anti-ghost spray, a “How to be
mean in 10 easy lessons book”.
Thank you.
Ebenezer Scrooge
P. S. Don’t let anyone know I
sent this.
STUDENT COUNCIL
CORNER
Thus far in the year, the Student
Council of W. P. Grier has con
tinued to run smoothly. Not only
have many new committees been
formed tfiis year, but nearly all
have been a success. We, at the
Script, think the Student Council
should be contratulated for the
tremendous job they have done.
The most recent events con
cerning the Council have been trips
taken to the Boys ward at the
Orthopedic Hospital and to two
Rest Homes. The Student Council
visited these places and brought
the Christmas spirit to many. The
visits were thought to be most
rewarding to both patients and
Council members.
We urge everyone to support
the Student Council, after all, what
would Grier be without it?
