How ever, until that time, we feel students should not be counted late simply because the school clocks have gotten faster during the night. All this brings to mind the fact that the clock and bell system in the school has been in use for many years and needs a general over hauling. We should like to urge the school officials to have a factory man do this work, as the sys tem requires the services of a specialist. Thanksgiving For the first time in three years the entire world will once again be able to celebrate in peace the day on which we may all give thanks unto God for all He has given us — Thanksgiv ing. In 1827, Mrs. Sarah J. Hale began to urge the observance of a uniform day throughout the country fpr the expression of thanks for the blessings of the year. It was not, however, un til 1863 that the first Thanksgiving holiday was observed. We have continued since then to ob- Frances Babbles Well, dear studes, did youse all miss me last issue? Well that’s aside the point, cause here I am anyhow. This newspaper does not usual ly publish free advertisements but in the following cases we decided to do so for the sake of charity. WANTED—Any male who does not have a ‘wife’. Apply Carlotta Stanley. NOW AVAILABLE—Two (2) unmarried bachelors who desire female companionship. Apply Bill Winslow or Charlie Ellis or write I Wannaman, c-o this newspaper. FOR SALE—Or rent. One (1) comfortable seat in U. S. History. Will even consider giving away the above stated. Interested per sons please see Leonard Collins. Well, we feel sure that charity feels better now. There was a group of freshman serve this holiday the fourth Thursday of each November. And indeed, this year we truly have boys over at Carolyn’s the other something to be thankful for. The whole world night. What about it, Sonny G., can this year bow their heads in prayer for the: and Kenneth F. peace that is' now ours — the peace we have waited so long for. But wait — don’t stop there! Tell us, are Bus Trip We have -heard by means of that immortal little bird that the bus was awfully crowded on the way Gy. mnasium Members of the planning committee of the Goldsboro Graded Schools have recently made a study of the building needs of the various schools in the city system. Although they admit they don’t know just when they can start building any of the units needed, they thought it well.to survey the needs of the schools and make plans for future devel opment. Included in the plans as announced is a proposed gymnasium for Goldsboro High ‘School. Certainly this is needed. Statement has been made that no other school of the size of GHS in the state is without a gymnasium. Goldsboro High School pupils and teachers are elated that such a building is proposed. We hope the , day is not far distant when work on the building can set underway. An architect has ueen employed—a j." well, Jr., of Goldsboro — to draw plans of pro posed buildings in the system. We hope that the plans will be ready soon, that building ma terials will be available, that money will be in hand, and that work can start at the earliest possible time. We have dreamed of a gymnasium for the school for a long time. Now the officials are dreaming of it in a realistic and visible sort of way. Let us all hope and work for the day when our dreams shall come true. And may we say this in connection — that we hope the building, when it does come, will not be a gymnasium in the old sense of the word — a place to practice and play basket ball—but that it will be a physical education building where every student who is physically able will participate in a program designed to serve his best needs. We believe that a physical education pro gram and a physical education building should be designed to serve all the pupils in the school. May it be a building used every period in the day for the good of every pupil in school. We need a physical education building. We need it badly. Let’s urge that we get it. And at the earliest possible moment. you going to wait until Thanksgiving Day to back from the Greenville—GHS thank God because the guns have ceased to football game the other night.

We are the Judd, We wonder how Bill T. and Ottis P. got along with Mazelle, builders of the future America! We hold on better than Henry E. and D. C. our shoulders the responsibility of sustaining got along with Virginia K., we everlasting peace throughout the world. So let us not wait for one day a year to remember all that is ours, but make every day a day of Thanksgiving. In doing this, it will give us the strength and faith to suppress any war that may again arise. School Grounds The Goldsboro High School grounds are un dergoing a sort of “face-lifting”, so to speak. mowed. We are glad to see this. We recognize that during the war times it was next to impossible to get labor or ma chinery to keep the grounds in shape. As a consequence the school campus — with possibil ities of being one of the prettiest in the state—! starting the long walk down the has had a rather bedraggled look. No one was road.

We again wonder how Fred T. could sleep (so he says) and let Joyce B. and Leslie Britt have all the fun. While strolling the halls the other day (horrpr-horror) some one asked me how “Garbage” learned to jitterbug. There must be an epidemic brewing. Another terrible case has developed. This time it con cerns Oscar B. and Jackie B. We now approach the quiz time in this column. Q kids^does the editor of this publication like so well? A. See Slam Book number 1123478. Gordon and Faye are still strol ling down L. L. together. Thudge and Betty are also John Alexander Hauser, better known as Jack, is the first boy to be honored in this column this year. He was born February 27, 192-3, here in Goldsboro where he has continued to live for his seven teen years. Jack can usually be seen with a paintbrush in his hand busily go ing about his duties as chairman of the bulletin board committee, or drawing some ‘foolish’ cartoon. He was a member of the war activities board last year and proved himself capable in that position. The GHS swingsters would not have been the same had it not been for Hau ser (sometime mispronounced — Houser) and trumpeting. When asked what his favorite foods were he said that barbecued chicken and coke floats top the list. His favorite pastime, besides thinking, making music, cartoon ing, fishing, and hunting, is read ing Dick Tracy. His favorite musi- N O clan is Tommy Dorsey. Jack plans to enter the University of North Carolina and upon graduation be come a commercial artist. We know that whatever field That tall ever-smiling junior who is our first girl honoree for this year is none other than Shirley Ann White, a native of Goldsboro since April 26, 1929 when she first entered this busy world. Besides her duties of being a marshall, she serves as co-chair man of the building, grounds, and hall committee, and is a member of the Girls’ Sports Club. Fried chicken, creamed potatoes, and lemon pie rate first in the “eatables” with Shirley. Unlike many students in GHS she raves about semi-classical music. Shirley joins the ranks of dog lovers. Jen nifer Jones and Dane Clark are tops with her. Here’s luck to you, Shirley, in your high school and nursing car eer. Jack chooses he will make a very big success at it, so we wish all the luck wishable to our six-foot hon oree, John Alexander Hauser. their best days. ! vealed that he wasn’t gonna let Many are the times when Principal Twiford' freshman cuties go by unnotic- and the limited force of school workers would We have heard that that ‘big’ start mowing the lawn, only to have the mower: S^has^fM^^^ break down before a half dozen rounds could newcomer, Julia, be made.

Some of the time, yes; but lots of the time, no. Most of the students in the school go by the time given over the radio, and when we’re late a minute or so, on account of the school clock running fast, we think we are entitled to be excused.

Well, isn’t it? Yours truly has naticed a certain few who seem to be glad to get back to their studies. O. K., maybe it ain’t the studies they are glad to get back to. It couldn’t be a certain freshman, namely. Sue H., could it Jack? It seems as if the managing editor of the Hi-News has quite a prush on one of the varsity football players, ya know tall end, Ralph W.

Born on October 19, 1929, in good old Wayne was Charles Grantly Ellis, our honoree for this month. This is Charles’ Junior year at G .H. S. Serving as co-chairm«n of the war activity board and junior class treasurer keeps Charles a pretty busy boy, not mentioning the magazine drive and many other activities that keep him on the go nearly all the time. Charles was pretty busy last year, too, as he served as chairman of the sales Susan Christine Smith was born January 2, 1930, in La Grange. Susan moved to Goldsboro in committee under the war bond council. Gregory Peck and Margaret O’ Brien are his favorite movie stars. Charles just loves hamburger steaks, “great ol’ big ones with lots of onions.” His greatest am bition is to be a “North Carolina Historian.” Here’s wishing him the very best of success in this field. 1944 and since that time has help ed in school activities in many waj*s. During this year she has served as chairman of the magazine drive and is helping the war bond com mittee. She,is also a marshall and a member of the Devotional Com mittee. Susan’s pet hate is jealousy. Her favorite foods are fried chicken, lemon pie and banana splits. Fashionable Fads New Books Miss Dowtin, Mrs. Hawley, and Mrs. Twiford a few weeks ago went to Raleigh to buy books for the William Street libraries. Around three hundred books were bought. There were books about horses, dogs, adventure, mystery, and many other kinds. The students will enjoy these new books, which should be in the libraries within a month. Looks like Lou York really loves wearing those plaid sport shirts. Wonder how she manages to have so many. Maybe she bor rows them from some certain boy. I guess most of us will be satis fied just to wear our sweaters (the bigger the better) and skirts. In colors lime and fushia seem to be very good. On the feet loafers or saddle shoes are practically always seen but I’ve noticed some gals go in for moccasins. Army sweaters are rather pop ular this year . , . How about it. Bo? Could she have a brother in service or something???? You’ve probably all checked those sport shirts that Teeny and Jackie are sporting around. Sharp, ain’t they? The V ;gger the better. And how’s about Pinky’s black loafers? They’re really in the groove; at least some of us thought so. We bought some dye. The overall pants that the boys are wearing are just out of this world. Especially Garbage Mouth’s. Some of us still go in for drapes. How about it, Dan? Talking about sport shirts, some of those that are being sported by the boys aren’t bad, are they, girls? When I get started I’m really started. So I’d better stop before I start making up fads of my own and, brother, what fads!!!!!! Snake Story Heard Here Mr. G.. E. Worthe, a famous herpetologist from Texas, recently spoke to {he biology students in a special assembly. Mr. Worthe had v/ith him on the stage a few cages with snakes in them, and many jars containing snakes, lizards, and spiders. During Mr. Worthe’s talk, he discussed poisonous and non- poisonous snakes, and told the class how to identify some of the poisonous ones. He also described some of the useful ones. He did this so that the students would know not to kill these helpful snakes. An interesting point brought out in Mr. Worthe’s talk was that out of the hundred-odd known species of snakes in the United States, only four ^of these species are poisonous. Mr. Worthe talked about snakes in Europe and also other poison ous insects in Europe and in America. Toward the end of his talk, he told the group just how to treat a snake bite, should such a thing occur. During the last three years, Mr. Worthe has toured the army camps, telling the boys about poisonous and non-poisonous IdealJ uniors Boy ^^i^ Carl Casey Robrt Andrews Hubert Rose Physique Ralph Wiggs Voice Carlton Frederick Jack Hauser Personality “Clip’' Noble Dan Bernstein Clothes Bobby Malpass Girl Susan Gardner Eyes Margie Perry Legs “Pinky” Gainey Figure Jackie Barfield Voice Kitzi Bridgers Personality Claudine Lewis Brains Susan Jenkins Clothes Ida Lewis Langston “I am enclosing money for a year’s subscription so I will have a right to gripe for another 12 months on how the sheet is run”— —From a letter to The Horton Headlight. snakes.
