Students of Perquimans Training
School at Winfall were guests at the
annual High School Day held at Eliza
beth City State Teachers College on
April 8. The morning session began
with tests in subject matter with stu
dents from all over Eastern North

from Perquimans Training School
were winners of individual awards :
James Turner, first place, Agricul
ture; Shirley Wiggins, tied, for. second
place, General Science;. Sarah Wig

The teams, consisting of three per

Current Events, third place.
The second session was a musical

oratorical and declamation contest
held at night. Mary Elizabeth White,
speaking on "Civil Rights," won first
place in the oratorical section. Sadie
