^gge Two GOLDSBORO HI NEWS June 8, 1945 Our SA The Student Body has progressed this year. We have lived up to the standards which have always made our association outstanding. In doing so we have promoted the war effort in bond sales, Red Cross work, and scrap drives. We have help ed our community in war drives and others. Eadh committee has done its duty in making the SA succeed this year with supporting students. To Elizabeth Myatt, President, Miss Emma Lou Garner, adviser, and stud ents, we congratulate you! New SA President' Speaks The story goes that some learned men were having a conference. They talked beautifully of suffering human ity and social reform. The philosopher speaking was interrupted by the cries outside his window of a child who was dying of cold and exposure. The man rose quietly, went to the window, and shut out the sound. In our SA we must not shut out the sound of outside things. To have a good Student Association next year we should remain wide awake and alert to every sound. The future of GHS shines brightly with opportunity. This is your oppor tunity and an important decision lies in your hands. We can have one of the best Student Associations Goldsboro High School has ever known—it’s up to you—will we? We’ll miss the class of ’45 but you’ve done your job well. Seniors, and we who remain are going to live up to your standard of a good SA. ; I am anxious for next year to be a really great year in our history. Work ing together with complete cooperation we will not fail. Waiting till the last minute is never a good policy, so with spirit and en thusiasm let us begin thinking, plan ning and working for next year-—now! SA President, Martha Winslow. Recreation this Summer June 8th, the last day of school, will be the beginning of our summer activ ities. Have we planned our summer? Are we going to be out of town, busy in town or are we going to loaf? The Wayne Recreation council has several activities planned for the sum mer. These activities will be under the supervision of Mr. Clifton Britton and Coach Norris Jeffrey. A few of the activities, it is hoped, to be available are: tennis, baseball, volleyball, arohery, darts, swimming, art and dramatic productions. If the girls want to do something worthwhile they could be a Junior Nurse’ Aide or work at the Red Cross. The boys can help in the different drives. Perhaps we plan to work this summer. Whatever your plans are for the summer, make it a worthwhile one. Library Committee The staff commends the splendid service the library committee has given to the Goldsboro High School library. The members have been faithful by staying in the library before and after school. The committee has also made it possible for a person to find any type of book by keeping the books in their correct place. The students are notified everyday of overdue books. Although there has not been a full time librarian until the end of the year the library has functioned properly with the help of the committee. Senior Soliloquies So-long GHS! Today I, a Senior, close the chapter on my high school career. I turn the page and go into a chapter that is much deeper. It will be harder to understand and the problems more difficult to solve. This last chapter, though, has really been wonderful—full of activities. Cer tainly, I’ve had my worries. I remem ber the night I couldn’t sleep because of worrying about that certain test next day—and the time I worried be cause I was having a hard time learn ing my part for the program, but all these things worked out fine in the end. Gee, how I’m going to miss it all. The cheery “Hello” in the halls, the pep meetings, the games, the plays— they’re all a part of me. When I walk down the aisle and the stage tonight—it won’t all be hilarious —I feel as though part of me is being left behind. But I will have a feeling of satisfaction. I have satisfactorily closed a chapter in a large book. Goodbye GHS! It was wonderful knowing you and will never forget! With all appreciation, Nelle Cook. Dear Friends The day of graduation has come. Sometimes I thought it would never arrive, but now I feel it is all too soon. I realize that this day marks the end of happy fellowship in High School. Daily I shall try to apply the things I have learned to practical purposes. I remember how I hated for the final bell to ring in the morning and.Jiow re lieved I was when it rang in the after noon. I’m going to miss things like bells, teachers, and lectures. The teach ers and students, the atmosphere of High School will be lost when I grad uate but I’ll remember— To you, who have, made my grad uation possible, I say a sincere, thank you. Gratefully yours, Charles Prick. Lid Lifters We lift our lids: To the typing classes for typing for the Hi News. To the SA Council and committees for their splendid work this year. To the faculty for their untiring guidance to the students this year. To the members of the Building Trades class for staining and varnish ing the auditorium seats. To Donald Barnes for his faithful ness in keeping the Hi News shop. We Honor Billy Daly Dot Wiggins Donnell Ivey Daly (seriously, isn’t that a lovely name?) is known around here as “Billy.” Blond, blue-eyed and ornamental, Billy was born in Clinton, August 28,1928. You see it isn’t a local boy who has made good but a Clin tonian. This young man who for four years has been a Goldmasquer is rec ognized for his dramat ic ability. He was in Lost Horizon and made an outstanding impression in Smilin’ Through, portray ing the role of Kenneth Wayne. Billy’s abilities aren’t confined to acting alone; he worked on scenery for Twin Beds and Marching Men. Billy has participat ed in junior and varsity basketball. He has been on the Athletic committee, is on the Senior Gift committee, and was chairman of the Poster committee for the Senior Contest plays. He has also attended SA Council as a member and as an alternate. His favorite actor is Dennis Morgan and the actress is June Allyson. You know, that is a good selection (specially Dennis). Bill says he likes fried chicken and banana puddin’. Gals, there’s your chance to make a ’lil time! Turnips ’n’ “know it all people” are Bill’s abom inations (how come?) Another favorite, a thing he likes, is the song “Time waits for No One” and the orchestra leader. Tommy Dorsey. To be a radio announcer is Bill’s im mediate ambition. With That Voice how could you be anything but a success? You see her often at plays and other assem blies for the public at GHS. Yes, Dorothy Wiggins is a marshal. She’s a smart girl; she rates in the upper third of the senior scholas tically. Dot will be sev enteen next August 30, so she will be only six teen when she grad uates. Dot was chairman of the lobby committee for Smilin’ Through, was in senior council and was on the Com mencement committee. Last year the Decoration committee for the Junior- Senior banquet, costume committee and ticket committee for the Junior play, claimed her as a member and she was chairman (Miss Williams’ homeroom) for War Bond sales. For three years Dot has been a member of the Glee Club, participating in the various school and civic programs. Dot does little, ordinary things, too, that few people know about. Someone washed the blackboards or fixed the attractive bul letin boards. A little questioning and you’ll find that it was Dot’s work. Dot is such a friendly, likeable per son. She has all the traits she finds attractive in other people. Among her more concrete likes are strawberry ice cream, fried chicken and corn. Add one more person to the . list whose dislike is conceited people. “Hawaiian Sunset,” (dreamy title) is her favorite song. To be an efficient secretary is Dor othy’s desire and her plans for the fu ture include a position as a secretary. You have all the good traits that will make you a success. Dot. Keep right on climbing ’til you reach the top! -LITERARY LIGHTS- By Jean Powell Biography Thomas S. Mann, who is of German parentage, won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1929 and he is known as one of the world’s greatest living au thors. He was born in 1875 in Lubeck. His family was one of aristocracy and intelligence. .His. first novel, Budden- brooks, appearing in 1901 made him internationally famous. In 1933 Mann was self exiled from Nazi Germany and all of his works were ordered de stroyed. Until 1937 he lived in Switzer land, and* then came to the U. S. and applied for citizenship. Some of his novels deal with stories that we are familiar with, taken from the Bible, His entire list of novels is given as he wrote them: Royal Highness, Budden- brooks, The Magic Mountain, Joseph and His Brothers, Young Joseph, Jo seph in Egypt, (2 volumes). The Be loved Returns, The Transposed Heads and the latest, 1944, Joseph the Provid er. It is obvious that the majority of the books are concerned with Joseph, the Joseph in the Bible who dreamed of the seven cows and seven ears. In addition Mann has written essays and miscel laneous articles. Joseph the Provider Joseph and His Brothers, Young Jo seph, Joseph in Egypt, and Joseph the Provider are the four volumes known ^ as Thomas Mann’s tetralogy (group of four connected literary works). The latter is the story of Joseph’s rise as a statesman in Egypt, of the migration of Israel down to Egypt and of Joseph’s death and burial. The time is 1400 B.C. and the Volume is said to “stick faith fully to the revelant chapters of Gene sis, concerned to fill out, interpret and illuminate them.” . The stories which we have heard since we started to Sunday School, the money found in the sacks of Joseph’s brothers, and the silver cup are told in the narrative.
