Chalk Dust May is Election Month at BHS; Seniors to Give Play Tonight By Jl'WE MOORE The student body elected officers for Student Council for the '58 '59 ichool term last Wednesday. The inoouncement of the voting results vat made by our current presi lent, Danny Willis, over the inter communication system. Danny reported that the follow jig slate of officers had been :hosen: president, Douglas Piner; rice-president, Butch Hassell; treasurer. Bertha Fodrie; and sec retary, Pud Hassell. It was the opinion of many of the faculty that this year's elec tion was one of the most orderly conducted ones yet. Congratula tions are in order for the new rfficers and to Danny for the fine job he did directing the elections. Since May is the month of elec llllg II c w uui :ers among the school groups at Beaufort, Chalk Dust will be Filled with re ports of these elections. Dur ing the proceed ing week the Prayer Group also chose its leaders for next Judie Moore ,v??. Jackie Wheatly will Ik id the {roup as president, Jeanette Ran som will serve as vice-president, . and the secretary-treasurer posi tion will be occupied by Sharon Wilkinson. Members of the senior play cast ^ will make their dramatic debut at 8 tonight in the auditorium when they present the annual senior < play. Some dramatic actions will be enacted, but the main concern of the cast will be to present the play in a comical manner as it j was intended to be. Chalk Dust has beforehand given \ a complete preview of the play and has listed the characters and j actors, so that will not be done again. However, it is necessary to add that this presentation prom ises to be the most original, en tertaining, and colorful ever pre sented. Those costumes and settings which are characteristic of the 17th century are real eye-catchers. Can you imagine David Chipman as a doctor with red hair, beard, and mustache, Tommy Jones is a blonde headed apothecary, and Er nest Carraway as a really gdudily clad merchant. This whole play is classified as uniquely different and the seniors are proud of it. Mrs. Margaret Arrington is a natural-born di rector?in fact she was so good showing the cast how to act their parts, that they agreed the play would surely be a success if only she were eligible to act in it. We'll be expecting you Friday night! Other bits of news are in store for next week. The Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y will have their banquet Tues day night at Rex, the sophomores will entertain the seniors at the Episcopal center for a beach party on Wednesday, and on Thursday, of course, the Varsity Club will set sail on their moonlight cruise. Yours truly will not write Chalk Dust next week but rather my successor to the position of school reporter will make his or her lit erary debut. This person has not been select ed positively yet but be sure and read the column to find out whose vork you will be reading next 'ear. The engraving of trophies was he topic of discussion at the Var lity Club meeting last week. Mr. McQuaid, the club's advisor, alked to the group about having he names of the team members engraved on their Boys Carteret ;ounty Championship trophy. Everyone agreed that this should >e done but that it would be neces >ary to use initials in the case of hose with real long first and niddle names. Those in the club vere also given slips of paper by he president, Larry Kirk, to vote 'or the person who, in their opin on, has contributed the most to (ports at BHS this year. The results of this voting will ?ot be revealed until the end of school when the chosen person vill be presented with a trophy. In planning for a social, the :lub voted out the idea of a beach jarty and instead decided to in luire into the possibilities of a noonlight cruise. A committee vas appointed to find out the lecessary information and the neetlng was adjourned. At a called meeting during lunch ruesday, a report was made that i boat with just the right require roents had been procured and that ?veryone would set sail next Thurs lay at 8 p.m. Mr. Tarkington stated the neces lity of having two faculty mem Ders and two parents to accompany he group us chaperones. Though there were no anxious volunteers of parental assistance from among the group, never fear, they shall be there! Chalk Dust honors its last Miss Senior this week and she is Miss Alice Mae Pake. On Oct. 9, 1939. Alice joined the family of Mr. and Mrs. John Pake. Now, at IS, Alice is 5' T6" and weighs 128. She has blonde hair and deep blue eyes. Expressing her pet peeve, Alice enthusiastically stated that homework was hers. She'd like most to be a Holly wood movie star!! Fried shrimp is Alice's favorite dish, Pat Boone is her favorite vocalizer, and My Dream is her favorite song. This year she's a member of the Lambda Chi, and the Tri-Hi-Y. To be a nurse is Alice's future dream so we'll just say, "Go to it gal!"
