Brevard High School News K—~>— STAFF Editor-in-chief.John Paul Jones Managing Editor. F. P. Banka SENIOR EDITORS: Lillian Zachary — Jeanette Austin Edward Qlazener JUNIOR EDITORS: Kathleen Wilson — Robert Huggins SILENCE IS OOLDEN The bell rings, and orderly groups of boys and girls enter the halls Some go to classrooms, talking among themselves, and others go to their lockers to get books, closing the doors softly. The stairways are filled with students bent on reaching their classes as quickly and quietly as possible. A girl drops her books; papers and pen cils are scattered over the floor. Some one stops to assist her in picking them up. A few seconds later the hall Is empty. No one Is loitering In the cor ridors. and a quiet buzz comes from the classrooms. • Ts the above scene typical of Bre vard high school between classes? I'm afraid not. When the bell rings, our halls often become scenes of confus ion. Locker doors slam. Boys and girls run down the halls. Tf someone Is unlucky enongh to drop his books, few people stop to help him. Most of us. however, do our best to keep our halls quiet and orderly between classes. Why not make It the duty of all of us. as students, to correct this disorder and cooperate In doing our best to make Brevard high school a model of courtesy and orderliness, so that a stranger entering our halls might know that he Is In "halls of learning." —Priscilla Bobst. -Frcraril Hi "THE HEADLESS HORSEMAN" SHOWN AT B.H.S. Friday evening at eight o’clock in the Brevard high school auditorium, a large number of students and many town residents enjoyed the privilege of see ing "The T,egend of Sleepy Hollow." dramatized In the form of a silent movie. Rev. Charles Jones procured this film and also projected It. The proceeds will be used for the athletic association. Will Rogers who was one of our most beloved screen actors, starred In this movie as the lovable school teach er, Ichabod Crane. Though this was a silent film, he was able to portray Ichabod perfectly through his facial ex pressions and slow deliberate motions. This movie was immensely enjoyed by all, and it is hoped that we may have the opportunity of seeing others of its type. —Jeanette Austin.

I’m concentrating) of the newspaper editors of tomorrow (???) struggle Into Mrs. PeLong’s room. Soon everybody on the staff is pres ent, and very ambitious about plunging In and finishing the work. But, alas for ambition, this noble virtue’s reign ing star is rapidly declining after only a few minutes. Nevertheless, everyone eventually settles down to work, and the deep (?) silence is broken only by such remarks as "Where’s my pencil?" “What hap pened to that article?” "Can anyone think of a synonym for Improvement?" "If anyone sees my notebook, let me know,” and a somewhat sarcastic laugh from an editor who is reading a note In a "Here and There" about his own love affairs. Every once In awhile, an animated conversation about some en tirely Irrelevant subject breaks out. but Is subdued by either Miss Jarvis or Mrs. PeLong. and it Is really amaz ing the way inspiration can burn so effectively that three or four editors will be writing one article at the same time. This newspaper training promisee to develop many potential artists, because after a few minutes of work. Kat, Bob H.. Jeanette and Fendleton love to spend a few moments drawing Jack-in the boxes, coiffures, characatures—in fact, just anything. They also promise to be great minds, judging by their ability to solve riddles, and prove that foo Is equal to goo. But finally, de spite the hubub and clatter of type writers. the Issue is ready and the staff is free to leave. —Lillian Zachary. -Brevard Hi COACH COX’S FOOTBALL BOYS PRESENT PROGRAM Thursday morning an Interesting program on football was presented by members of the football team.

It Is true that it was only a miniature circus on wheels, the Beech Nut Cir cus, but such a large crowd It drew. Children of all sizes and ages came run ning to the scene. They stayed as long as they could, rushed home for a bite, [and back they came to enjoy the cir cus. Some of the students were even hate to class because they hoped to get I their pictures taken by the photograp er. In a handsome gilt and red truck enclosed by glass, elephants, alligators, butterflies, beautiful woodland scenes, acrobats, trained seals, horses, and clowns revolved animatedly about the three rings of the miniature circus, their movements controlled by elec tricity and accompanied by beautiful music. Not least among the attractions of the Beech Nut Circus was the free gum distributed to all students and teach ers—a delight which lasted long after the circus was gone. —Helen Fullhrlght. -Brevard Hi TIF.BE ANT) TTTERE Hello, folks.
