Hi there! The Senior Class’ social
life is taking on a festive air as these
lovely May days come in. Tuesday,
May 6, the seniors and their guests
enjoyed a wiener roast at Bandon, and
on Sunday, May 18, we are planning
a trip to Nags Head. (What fun that
will be. a nice long day at the beach!
Well, I can tell you more about that
next week.
Two other things which we are mak
ing plans for, are on the serious side,
I for they are commencement and ex
aminations. Practice has begun on
j the Class Night play and much of the
conversation around the Senior home
rooms is centered about graduation,
j It is sad, though exciting, to talk to
gether of our plans for the future, sad
that our days at E. H. S. are drawing
to a close and exciting that we shall
soon step into a new world, our fu
ture. College, military service, jobs,
marriage, it all must wait, though,
for in the immediate future are those
exams. Seniors are taking exami
nations early in case make-up exams
are needed, so you’ll hear of a great
bit of cramming this week.
One of the boys who are planning
to enter the military service is Mar
vin White, son of Mr. and Mrs. D. G.
White, Sr. This sports-loving senior
was bom August 6 1934. Marvin says
dating and fishing are his favorite
past times and it would be hard to
say which he loves more. Well, Mar
lene, as long as a fish is your greatest
competition you shouldn’t worry.
The Senior Class decided Marvin
was our “Cutest” boy. Next to Mar-

cities as possible. At military in
stallations, where practicable,
“open house" activities will ha
scheduled and equipment demon

Naval vessels, certain types of air
craft and airborne troops will, if
possible, be made.

(Well, Marvin, we hope you will be
very happy and successful in the
Navy. Good luck, you have our best
wishes!
Charles Morgan is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Charlie Morgan and was
bom on January 31, 1932. Charles is
another of the boys whose favorite
past time is dating. Shirley is his
special interest and of course that is
the reason you see him heading toward

Esso Extra Gasoline
Though not always apparent to the driver, various gasolines actually
do differ in performance. Industry-accepted road and laboratory tests
prove that Esso Extra gives a year-’round combination of qualities
unmatched by any other gasoline for 9 out of 10 cars in use today. m %
The Extra you always get at the “Happy Motoring” Sign is the big I
reason why more motorists buy Esso Extra in the area served by Esso % 4P M
Dealers than any other premium gasoline. Jw
♦ Esso Extra Gasoline is good for ALL ears, but in 9 out of 10 it will give
better all-around performance all year ’round than any other gasoline.
Only a car with an engine that’s poorly adjusted, badly worn, or one with
unusual compression characteristics may be unable to use fully the many
extra qualities of this great gasoline. See your nearby Esso Dealer today!
