FORTY-ONE GIRLS REPORT AS GIRLS’ BASKETBALL STARTS La Piece Francaise Nous Prend En France Girls’ basketball has started this year with a large attendance at each practice. Miss Currie, the coach, and all the girls, are very enthusiastic over the prospects. There is much new ma terial among the beginners. There are four letter men left from last year: Kaiicy Bridgers, Kath erine Liles, McArn Best, and Mar garet Underwood. Sixteen are out from last year’s squad and there are about twenty-five new ones. There are six freshmen, seven sophomores, fifteen juniors, ten seniors, and more are expected to come out. Miss Currie’s plan is to start with interclass basketball. The varsity will be chosen from this group. Armistice Program Dedicated To Everlasting Peace (Continued from page one) killed in the war. ‘^America’s Answer to Flander’s Field” was recited by Arthur All- red, after which the school sang “My Country ’Tis of Thee.” Isn’t it wonderful how one can take a trip to Paris and back so quickly? We were hardly in our seats in chapel before someone waved a magic wand, and lo—we were in the Lyons railroad station in Paris! Why there was Peggy Pate telling us what we were to see, and then saying something about nasal sounds and grunting like a hog. There was Lillian Gordon too, and she was tell ing the story in French, I guess, and then for us poor dumbbells she gave it in English. Before the play, “Le Voyage De Monsieur Perrichon,” began, Edgar Pearson and Jack Measley started talking queerly. I was afraid they were mentally unbalanced but they were only speaking French, I learned later. From the number of times “Remi” was said, I judge that they were talking about him, her, or it. Pete Heyward as Majorin, look ing smaller (?) than ever with a black derby, walked back and forth across the stage mumbling something and then left. Blackwell Robinson, so painted up and bulged out that I hardly knew him, representing M. Perrichon, came running in yelling something, in French of course, to his wife, Helen Smith, and daughter, Henri- ette, Marian Weil. Blackwell ran back and forth in the naive manner of an excited child or of a country man’s first trip on the train. Emmett Spicer, looking very much like a magician, but representing Daniel, entered the station. I don’t know what he said, but he looked at Henriette so lovingly I guess she was his sweetheart. I like never to have found out who that magician was, but it was Arthur Allred, and Lil lian said he was to be Armand. He evidently was in love with Henriette, i too. Jimmy Creech, dressed in a West Point uniform, made a good porter— at least as far as carrying bags and chewing gum goes. Pete and Black- well talked together about “Argent,” which I later learned meant money. Dorothy Langston, “une voyageuse,” started over to get a “billet” from Jarvis Pate, the emi^loyee, when Blackwell pushed her away and got himself a “billet.” Emmett and Ar thur came in and did more hugging than any two women ever did. Black- well ran in and bought a book from Hilda Sj)ence, the book seller. Em mett and Arthur followed him and that was all of the play. I was in a daze from so much queer talking and hoped that was the last, but no, Hilda Spense recited something that must have been horrible, for she started off, “c’est horrible.” If Peg gy hadn’t said something then in English I should have thought I had turned into a lunatic. She just wanted to tell us that Helen Smith was going to play a piano solo, and then Helen Thigpen sang the Marseillaise—French again. The next thing I knew Katherine Mitcham was at the piano, playing for dismissal—we were back in G. H. S. I’ll surely never go to Paris again until I’ve been in Miss Kornegay’s French class and know what “billet” and “aimer” mean. WORK DONE WHILE YOU WAIT Jinnette Shoe Shop Phone 353 We Deliver CLEMENT’S ANNUAL MINATUBE CAMPAIGN NOW ON “Photographs of Character” FINANCES DISCUSSED IN P. T. A. MEETING The first Parent-Teacher meeting of the year, which was called for the purpose of discussing the financial conditions existing in Wayne Coun ty schools, met in the library of G. H. S. Tuesday night, October 27. Senator Dortch read the recent school legislation. Supt. Armstrong showed that the legislation was false economy. For instance, he has been given $735 for janitor services and only $148 for library supplies. Supt. Armstrong further proved his point by an incident in a small country school that was appropriated $42 a month for janitor service. The school, being small, could have used one janitor for $80 a month. Since it was illegal for the principal to use the money for other purposes, he secured two janitors for the $42. Under the new legislation Supt. Armstrong uses several hours getting the teachers’ checks signed, since six signatures must appear on each teacher’s check and the Superintend ent must go to the residences of the six people, who live in different parts of the country. Originally the checks could be done in a few minutes. Mr. x\rmstrong stated that if the State Equalization Board did not provide for coal, the County Board of Commissioners would. Mr. C. E. Wilkins, a member of the school board, added that no teacher or pupil would go to school in a cold building this winter. In answering the question as to why the money for the auditorium could not be spent for coal, Mr. Arm strong explained that it was illegal to spend the $25,000 for any pur pose other than building. The attendance was good. Mrs. Middleton’s senior home room, with 22 per cent of its parents present, won the pass offered by Mr. Rosson of the Paramount Theatre. Mrs. Paul Borden, president, pre sided. Mrs. Middleton, making announce ment : “All girls are asked to meet in the auditorium the first part of the second period.” Sara Lee Best: “Me too ?” For Hot Dogs, Hambergers, Candies, Cigarettes and Quick Lunches, Visit the IDEAL LUNCH SHOET ORDER CAFE East Walnut Street \ i I i Train For Business Standard Gou-rses Expert Teachers and Modern Methods When You Finish your High School Course Enroll in Your Home School PEGG Secretarial School Cinderella Beauty Shoppe EXCELLING IN ALL LINES OF BEAUTY CRAFT Evening's by Appointment Professional Bldg-.
