DO Gives Barbecue Members of the Diversified Occu pation group in GHS held their annual spring barbecue June 1. The employers of the DO stud ents give them a barbecue each spring. The employers, DO boys, school officials and Mr. James Britt participated in the barbecue. Mr. Britt stated that in the com ing year it will be more difficult to find places for boys who want to come to school and work under the DO program. The reason for this is (1) veterans returning to begin new jobs at the same place where school people begin work and (2) people who have been employed out of the community will be returning. Mr. Britt also stated that it would be better for a boy who is expect ing ^tp become a DO student next fall to be placed in his job this summer.

Exams, ' exams—and more exams. The seniors were the first group to get this look. They went around for several days with a “Wonder ; if I' passed? Gee, that exam was hard.” The look on their white, ex pressionless faces was at times pitiful! Next came the “days of doom” for the underclassmen. The freshmen had experienced their first year of exams and had decided that gram mar school was much better. The sophomores went around with' a stunned look — Gee, I’m scared.

CONGRATULATIONS SENIORS! ■ 1 Thomas Office Supply Company w. Walnut Street Wednesday morning at the crack of dawn (8:30) I was awakened from my restful slQep by a call to the telephone. Merciful heavens! It couldn’t be anybody I knew at that time in the morning. What could they want? Then it struck me—the Hi Ne ws, I knew something horrible had happened. Everything ran through my mind. Could Raleigh have been bombed? Could the Graphic Press have burned down? Then my mind descended the-scale to the minor catastrophes. Could the copy have been lost? Were there some unfilled holes? All my fears were crashed when it was Mr. Roberts, who said he’d had word from the engravers that it would be impossible to make a line cut of the future plan for GHS in time to meet the deadline. Yes, all my fears were crashed, and new ones set in like the mad itch! What to do, what to do. When I got to school it was in my mind to write up a nice long story of the commencement night program—cast and gist of the pre sentation. Foiled again! How. could I give away the story the morning before the program that night? Well, I thought, there’s a whole auditorium full of seniors. So Bill and I had the idea of a long, and e-x-t-e-n-d-e-d feature story to fill up the space. (Needless to say this was the result). But that isn’t the end of my story. Oh, no. The process was gruelling! First we siphoned another member of the journalism class out of the Senior meeting, and then the three of us set down to work. I don’t know exactly what Bill was writing about, but I caught a snatch of it that said something about pretty girls coming up to him all the time. Holding out on us, Cokey? ■ After the task of the story was completed, Mr. Beck had to be call ed and informed of the calamity. Under the circumstances. I’d say he took the shock pretty well. After we’d gotten straight with him came the typing process. That was the biggest riot of all! I use the well- known “Hunt and Peck” system. It works pretty well in ordinary times, but in an emergency it’s practically hopeless. Jean came to m'y rescue and we finally came through in time for our deadline. I’m glad we told the engineer on the train to hurry! SHOP AT SEARS AND SAVE SEARS ROEBUCK & CO. 215 W. Walnut St “THE FRIENDLIEST STORE IN TOWN’* J. C.
