The float was decorated with a garden scene, and archway with a picket fence on both sides. Ed Best and Gertie Lewis portrayed two lovers in evening dress. Four of the senior homerooms entered floats. Two cars or a car and a float was the maximum num ber of vehicles allowed for each homeroom.

The Round Table, vol. 1, no. 1, was published November 10, 1893, and was recently found a- mong the personal possessions of Mrs. Annie Baker Barnes, deceased, great aunt of Mrs. Rutledge. The staff was composed of local persons, some of whom would be recognized as prominent residents of Goldsboro today. Mrs. E. B. Borden, nee Ella Kirby stated that when this paper was published, there were only nine grades in the Goldsboro School system, but that the fundamentals were taught. The high school was then located in one of the William Street School Buildings. Miss Daisy Brown, present music teacher, wrote an article in a cur rent magazine about several pre sent business establishments who ran ads in the paper. They are: Miller’s Drug Store, now Goldsboro Drug Company, H. Weil and Bro thers, and Giddens Jewelry Store. PLATTER CHATTER Hiya! Yep it’s me, back again with the latest in rhythms and romance. First we’ll take the rhythm (the romance has usually flickered and faded by the time this goes to press). At the top of the list is “Cale donia” by Lewis Jordan with “Some body Changed the Lock On My. Door” on the other side. And Xavier Cugat has made a new recording with Bing Crosby on the vocals: “You Belong to My Heart” and “Baia” and at last we’ve got some music that we can swing and sway to. Artie Shaw’s back in the running with “Little Jazz” and “September Song” (which will be hi-ho, hi-ho, it’s off to school we go). Here’s a little ditty that’s slightly strained on the vocals but easy to dance to Freddy Martin and his orchestra come up with “Easy to Love” and “All For Love.” Of course there’s “Dreams” and “Dreams,” the Pied Pipers are strict ly O.K. but have you heard Jimmy Dorsey’s version of the same with “There I’ve Said It Again” on the other side (and that’s the theme song of the Smilin’ Through cast). Now, at the piano, ladies and gentlemen (??) we have Carmen Cavalier with: “The More I See You” and “In Acapulco,” the im mortal “Fats” Waller tickles the ivories in his arrangement of “Oh, Frenchy” and “It’s A Sin to Tell a Lie” (boys and girls! remember??). Out of this world is Jo Stafford’s “Out of This World,” “There’s No You” backs it. We’ve all heard Phil Harris’ recording “That’s What I Like About The South” of course that’s what we all like about it, but just try and find the platter (can’t be done, I’ce tried) they’re selling like nobody’s business and for such a good reason, TOPS is the word to describe it. Ella Mae Morse has a grand new record that should be of special interest to all you jitterbugs (or is there such a thing left in this school??) on one side is “Captain Kidd” and on the other is “Ya Bet- cha‘,” and here’s a surprise: Lionel Hampton has an addition to his famous “Hamp’s Boogie” in the per son of “Hamp’s Boogie Number Two.” There was a time when the men tion of. “Bell Bottomed Trousers” brought shh’s and hush’s but not any more, Tony Pastor has a taste for salty tunes for this platter has “Five Salted Peanuts” on the other side. Hoagy Carmichael combines his old favorite “Stardust” with another Oldie” that’s back in the limelight after it’s appearance in “To Have and Have Not” on the back: “Hong Kong Blues.” Here are a few smoothies for that Saturday night gathering: Vaughn YOCOM REFRIGERATION SERVICE 129 W.

John Street for Your Musical Needs Monroe and his orchestra send this one your way, “I’ll See You In My Dreams” and “I Walked In With My Eyes Wide Open,” Dinah Shore has a new recording of “Counting the Days” (and I don’t mean until the time we come back to school again) and “Along the Navajo Trail,” another popular blues sing er is Martha Tilton who says, “I Should Care” and “Stranger In Town.” The young man who is at the top of the list and bouncing Bing Crosby around for the title of most popular male crooner, Dick Haymes, scores another hit with his arrangement of “Laura” and “The Night Is Young” (is it his voice or am I turning into a swoon- atra fan??) I told you about Spike Jones’ re cording of “Chloe,” well girls, here’s just the thing for you to warble to the (not all there are a few who pass with the rating of drip) drips you find yourselves entertaining “Serenade to a Jerk.” Bing Crosby and Judy Garland have a most fitting song to cover my exit (there’s one in every issue) cause if “You’ve Got Me Where You Want Me” oh woe is me ! ! ! the other side of this platter is a perfect description of my favorite past time “Yah Ta Ta Yah Ta Ta” you know the way a woman’s tongue wags. Thought I was going, did you? well, I am really, I just want to go serious for a minute and wish every one of you a pleasant vacation (you too. Perry, Dail, Malpass and Martin and anyone else who receives one of those popular greeting cards) and to you folks who’ll be back here again next year, I hope this dear old school will treat you as well as it has me. s’long keeds ! ! ! ! Pet Peeves (Continued from page 5) track was his biggest worry (at the moment). Travis, it’s all over now. Since George C. is joining Uncle Sam on June 11, his answer to the question of pet peeves was “U. S. Army.” As is typical of Zeno S., a bad joke is his worst annoyance. Donald S. doesn’t care for “women with airs.’* Oh, goody! We wuz ’fraid we weren’t being noticed at all. Linwood B. pondered a bit and gave his decision. He can’t stand people who try to be cute—and can’t. Mrs. Yelverton is heir to so many worries that she says she can’t name them, but slamming doors and detailed reports rank a- mong the very highest. Mr. Roberts has two pet peeves, too. He disap proves of people who read screen titles aloud and those who pro nounce a-g-a-i-n “gain” instead of “gen.” Seniors Are Awarded Scholarships IF YOU WANT THE BEST ICE CREAM Go To The Goldsboro Candy Kitchen COHEN'S SMART WOMEN'S WEAR LOUIS SHERMAN STORE for Men and Boys GIFTS FOR ALL OCCASIONS GIDDENS' JEWELRY STORE i Elizabeth Myatt Elizabeth Travis Myatt has been awarded a $250 scholarship to St. Mary’s School in Raleigh by the Bishop of the Episcopal Church.
