GOLDSBORO HI NEWS PAGE FIVE cJ-> \u O-Ce^ ^ Students, friends, morons, and all the rest of you. ’Tis indeed with a heavy heart that I bring to ya’ this farewell speech. Goodness knows I’m gonna’ miss writing this col-yum for ya’. For eight times this year, I’ve run around the halls, peeping in windows, slyly asked questions, searched the waste baskets and covered the favorite hang-outs, looking for gossip to bring to ya’ (and you knew it be fore I ever wrote it). For eight times this year I have written, typed, cut and re-writ, try ing to get the school gossip in print! For eight times this year I’ve walked around trying to soften hard hearts and cause some of ’em to beat quicker (due, of course, to certain circumstances), just for you. This last time was even hard er than the rest, but I did succeed a little bit. 5|5 ♦ ’Frinstance, did you see Jean G. and Lyndon at the “She Do-oed It”? Or Miriam S. and “Nubby”. I didn’t do bad at all that time, did I? Or have you noticed the sly glances Lucile B. gives to Sydney? And Hilda and Billy. (No other words are necessary.) * * * My column wouldn’t be complete without a moron joke in it, but since I haven’t heard any lately (except those about the red and green lights) I’ll remind you about the moron who wouldn’t cover up his feet cause he “didn’t want them cold things in there with him.’ (The readers are kindly requested to laugh!) jK Here are two very fitting exchanges. (1) From “The Booster”: FRESHMAN: “I’m going to gra duate with the highest honors,” SOPHOMORE: “I’m going to graduate.” JUNIOR: “I’m going.” SENIOR: “Oh well, I can always dig ditches.” (2) From “The Owl”; I like exams. I think they’re fun. I never cram Nor flunk a one— I’m the teacher. * ♦ >(: George Denmark and Ellis B. have been running a race, trying to catch the heart of that cute freshie from Wilson, “Liddy Bet” Myatt. Wonder who’ll win? Congratulations, Pat! You at last got a rise out of that bashful senior. Wimpy Simmons. Cupid Jr. wishes you luck! ^ J|c :(! Here’s a riddle for you studes to rack your brains (?) over: What certain senior boy has got all the freshman girls “giddy” over him? * 5|: Things have finally changed around GHS. The matters have become more compUcated (if possi ble)! Bob P. and Effie have at last got together, and J. D. is chasing Margaret Jean; Margaret Jean is chasing Bob K.; Bob K. chasing no body, and finally Helen D. chasing J. D. Are you kiddingl ^ ^ Well, studes, the time has come at last to say goodbye to ya’. And here’s hoping that next year’s cupid will be able to get more lowdown on ya’ than I did. With heavy heart and eyes brimming with tears I say, adieu. —Cupid Jr. Seniors Enaci; Reunion (Continued from page 1) Rouse, Margaret Jean Thornton Mary Lou Austin, Dorothy Perkins' Mary Mitcham, Hilda Bell, and Carolyn Hollingsworth.

Go to fhe HOME CASH Staff Assists Year’s Activities Beginning with the part it played in the Freshman Orientation pro gram last fall, the Journalism class has, throughout the year, endeavor ed to play an active part in school activities and keep the students well informed through the Hi News and the Highlights in the Argus. Out of a possible 1,000 points, the Hi News received 860 and a first place rating in the CSPA contest at Columbia University this spring. Last year it received 865 points. The paper scored 200 points in make-up out of a possible 235, and 510 points in writing out of a pos sible 590. In general consideration, the paper received the highest rat ing—150 out of 175 points. The ratings were given in terms of A, B, C, D, and E. Out of a pos sible 33 A’s, the Hi News scored 10, one less than last year. A’s were given on: well-balanced front page, effective story displays, harmonious and well spaced type, varied sizes and styles, avoidance of large heads close to bottom of page, fair news balance, omission of ads from editorial page, good make-up, origi nal ad layouts, exclusion of com plimentary ads, and students’ pride in their school as shown in their paper. The Hi News received a first place rating at the SIPA Convention in Lexington, Virginia, last fall. Eight issues of the paper have been published, six issues coming out on days to play up various school activities: the Senior Play, Christmas, Defense, Nutrition Drive, Junior Play, and Commence ment issues. It has continued the weekly Highlights column in the News-Argus during the school year. All pictures in the Hi News have been taken by the staff photo grapher. The Most Representative contest was sponsored by the Hi News in the early spring. They’re Here What a day this is for the students of GHS! The last senior exams will be taken today — but underclassmen will just be beginning to get that qualmish feeling when they take their first exams today. The follow ing exam schedule has been an nounced: May 29, 2-4 5th period June 1, 9-11 2nd period June 1, 2-4 3rd period June 2, 9-11 4th period June 3, 9-11 1st period Seniors exams started May 29 and are ending today. This is the first year that comprehensive exams have been given in GHS.

PARROTT'S SHOE STORE 21 DE Students Earn Large Sum Over $4,000 has been earned by the 21 Distributive Education stu dents in their various jobs during this school year, according to a report given by Miss Frances Bayne, teacher of the course. These students may continue their jobs this summer, says Miss Bayne, because of the excellent work they have done for their employers. The real value of this course, in Miss Bayne’s opinion, does not lie in the money earned, but in the retail and wholesale training the students receive along with the experience of working with other people. Miss Bayne will return next year, and she is hoping that the enroll ment of her classes will be larger, for there are many possibihties for jobs in Goldsboro because of the defense program. The Distributive Education stu- dents and the stores in which they work are: Geraldine Edmundson, Lucy O’Brien, and Emmett Daugh try at Wool worth’s; Cornelia Grice, Juanita Person, Bill Stafford, La- Rose Whaley, and Edward Joyner at Kress’; Alma Griffin and Thelma Nichols at Belk-Tyler’s; Grace Jus tice at Robinson’s Drug Store; Helen Lancaster and Pearl Lee at Grant’s; Mary Mitcham at Weil’s; ^ Bruce Davis at J. C. Penny’s; Harold Hinson at Brown’s Radio Service; Johnny Hodges at Johnson Wiring Company; Edward Mitchell at Crow’s Cash Grocery; Ordery Moore and Edward Strickland at Efirds’ Department Store; Robert W^ard at Ward Grocery Company.
