odays Scene AtHlllsld By MICHELLE DEJARMON Scour Power! Scour Power! Scour Power! This is the saying and the name that most of the Hornets have in their mind at this time. Monday, March 8, 1971 marked the start of two weeks of clean-up in our school. Many of the students have tried to keep their lockers clean while picking up paper off of the flpor to help the cause. Some of the more bril liant students have even tack lad the lunch-room problem. It seems as if the Hornets are taking pride in their school and for those that seem to have no home training, there have been a couple to take the initative to tell them to take their trays up after they finish their lunch. The Beautification Com mittee with Mr. T. M. Davis, advisor, has even made the task of cleaning up the school a task to look forward to. Some students have entered the contest. The contest deals with making posters to Help remind the students that don't know any better that they don't live in a pig sty. There are prizes for the best looking posters. First prize is five dollars ($5.00), second prize is three dollars ($3.00) while third prize is two dollars ($2.00). So all the Hornets that didn't make any posters, go in the main corridor of the building and look at the pos ters because you, the students of HHS will be the judges for the posters and you will de cide which poster is most ef fective and who shall win the prizes. The Beautification Com mittee is not the only com mittee that has something going at HHS. The Human Relations Council had a meet ing pn Friday, March 15, 1971. In the meeting Mr. J. H. Lucas principal of HHS pre sided. The people present were those that were on the Interim Committee and the teachers that sigped up to work on the Human Relations Council. Mr. Lucas stressed the point that all people had to be repre sented in this Human Relations Council. This includes people of all religions, people of all races, Hippies, Yippies and Flower children. He was care ful not to leave out that if we had any Black Panthers in the school or if we had any junior members of the Klu Klux Klan they must be represented in the Human Relations Coun cil. Mr. Lucas stressed that everyone was a member of the Council and that none of the students or teachers had to restrain their comments be cause they were a teacher or a student. Everyone was to be treated the same. Mr. Lucas has designated the week of May 15, 1971 as Human Relations Week and everyone is to participate. The first two chairmen of the group are Miss Janie Eleseiver and Mr. Lonnie Trollinger. These are not the only chair men of the group. Instead of having one or two chairmen we will have rotating chairmen. The reason for this is that everyone has different values and this will give everyone a chance to express the views and get a look at many other and different views. The meet ing lasted a little over an hour but was very meaningful. There were some questions that were asked and they were meant to make people think. They were as follows: Is there really a difference between Black and white middle class? Black, white, red, and yellow children are intrusted to me as a school principal, hew should I treat each of them. If you were on a boat with black, white, red, and yellow children and one of them had to jump off to save the life of the rest which would you tell to jump? Would the world be a better place if you had anyone but the Caucasian race running things for a while or would it be better If everyone black. white, red, and yellow all were running this society? Does prejudice really begin with me? These were some of the most important questions that were asked. How would you answer these questions? The Human Relations Council is very important and there is a new Society that is trying to get started at Hill side. It is the Afro-American Society. The purpose of this society is to provide an organi zation in which students along with the guidance of our ad visers can compose,organize, direct and control "channels" | fmMM ' 4 •» W ' % I MISS DeJARMON through which we can make "Education more vital" and relevant to the development of ourselves. This in itself will help many of the students but it will also open new chan nels for group discussions, and speakers forum. An Afro-Am erican Library, and an Afro- American room will be needed. Along with this, Afro- Seminars with students wQI be held at fourth and fifth (4th and sth) lunch periods and it is entirely voluntary. No one is being made to attend these educational classes! Some committees in the society are The Organizational Com mittee, Speakers Forum Committee, Rap Committee, Afro-American Library Com mittee, Seminar Committee and Funds Committee. Of all the committees listed above, the most important committee is the Afro-American Library Committee. The committee is to be responsible for establish ing means in which we can get books and materials necessary for our library. This is impor tant because everyone needs to read all history but the most important history one needs to read is the history about him or herself. The advisors for this group are: Mrs. M. G. Cousin, Mrs. J. H. Lucas and Mrs. V. S. Willis. For all of the Hornets that are interested please go by and see one of these advisors and let them fill you in on what you don't understand about the Afro- American Society. To Ronald Scarborough, we were happy to see you in school to day, (3-15-71). Al though you won't be able to come back to school for ano ther couple of weeks, we were happy to see you anyway. Good luck to all the sen iors, and most of all, we the students, wish to Big Bird and Baby Ray good luck and hope they can get together although they are not seniors. Love to Jerome, Ruben, Scobbie, John, Donnie, Norwood, and Butch. Greetings to Gina and Bernell. To all of the twins at HHS and my six special twins at DHS remember to say to your main thing "I gave to you," but what did you do to me. Happy Birthday Bill!!!! Bye Now. -Kearney (Continued from page 8A) Don't forget that training Is coming up. Yes training for all scoutmasters, Asst. Scout masters, committee members. Cub Masters, Den Mothers, Asst. Neighborhood Com missioners and interested pa rents. This training will be held at R. N. Harris Elementary School, Saturday beginning at pjn. Laird to visit South Vietnam in 1971. PREGNANCY PLANNING /ffik AND HEALTH ■■}» Mrs. Gloria Riggsbee Dear Mrs. Riggsbee: I would like to know if there is any danger in having intercourse during your period?' Also, I would like to know how long you may con tinue to have intercourse after you become pregnant. And please send your booklet on birth control methods to me. Thank you. Mrs. S. Dear Mrs. Slaughter: I am sending you a copy of the free booklet on birth control methods, called "The Right Way to Birth Control." There is no danger in having intercourse during your period. If you have an IUD •uch as the loop of if you are taking birth control pills, there is also no danger of getting pregnant. As long as a woman takes the pills as directed, she is protected even during the time of her period. If you are using other forms of birth control, you should continue to use it even during your period, since there is %;■ slight chance that you could become pregnant during that time. There really is no set rule about when a woman should stop having intercourse while pregnant. Each woman should be guided by her doctor's ad vice, and if he doesn't men-"' tion it, she should a& hitn.' Most doctors feel that inter course should stop about six weeks before the baby is due. Others place no limits on this, but say the woman should let her own, desireCand comfort J be the. judge. In cases where 1 the health of the mother or baby might be threatened, the doctor will always tell the patient when she should stop having intercourse. *** V j | ; | Dear Gloria: I would like to know if it is possible for a woman who has less than four children to have' her tubes tied. My hus band and I absolutely don't want any more children than the two we already have. I take the pill, but I don't want to have to take it from now to have to take it from now until I am through with the change of life. Could I possi bly have my tubes tied? Mrs. G. Dear Mrs. G.: Highlights At Durham HI By MONIKA L. GUNN Gunnie here, reporting to you the latest happenln's from Durham High. Tuesday, Peter Marshall came to speak to the student body on the topic of Christianity. His father was a former minister of the United States Senate, and his mother, a well-known authoress. He encouraged us to make an effort to see the movie, "The Cross and the Switchblade. It tells how a young minister struggles to understand and convert such hoodlums as Niki Cruz. Mar shall stated that most people formed the belief that Chris tianity is a "white > man's" religion. He assured us this was not true, that God is for all! The East Carolina Percus sion Ensemble treated the D.H.S. "Bulldogs" to a pretty cool concert Wednesday. We really appreciated their com ing over to play for us. Student Council President Jeff Kristeller called a Repre sentative Council meeting Fri day. The Constitution Com mittee gave an up-to-date re port of their revising the school constitution. Plans are now being made for the Spring Folly, (this is a type of talent There is no law in Nofth Carolina which requires a wo man to have had four children before she can get her tubes tied. If you want to have this done, however, you should understand that, unless it is a medical necessity, doctors do reserve the right to decide whether or not they will do this type of operation. Doctors want to feel that a couple who requests sterilization is mature and fully aware that steriliza tion (tubal ligation or vasec tomy) is permanent. Physi cians feel it is their obligation to make this judgement. Steri lization is a very serious step and the doctor who will do this wants to be assured that the couple has fully thought It out beforehand.
