Care For Halls Where do you put your orange peelings and apple cores? Do you nonchalantly throw them in the halls or on the terraces, or make use of the wastebaskets? The S.A. council has recently been discuss ing the idea of having dispensers in the halls. They really would come in handy, but until we get them, if we do, let’s put our trash in the wastebaskets we have now. Tardiness Plan Installed Recently, there has been installed in our school a policy that may reduce, if not totatUy prevent, the constant and annoying problem of tardiness. The new rule is that one who is late to school or class must make up the time he lost, whether it be three or thirty minutes, in the afternoon after the end of the school day. What do you think of this? Is it not true that some step had to be taken to remedy an often-time useless and unneces sary problem? Every student should cooperate with the administration in enforcing this new policy. Lost time in class is opportunity lost, no mat ter how short the time you miss. Tardiness can and will check itself, now that we are cracking down and doing something about the situation. Won’t you cooperate to make our school an even more outstanding institution of learning? Two Students Go Touchdown Club Serves Well We doff our hats to the members of the Wayne County Touchdown Club. It would be hard to estimate the value that club has been to the Goldsboro High School and its athletic program. The club has built a steel grandstand for the school, has raised money to augment its athletic activities, and its members have shown active interest in the welfare of the school and its boys who represent it in the major sports sponsored by the school. ^ Read the Touchdown Club banquet story on*the sports page of this issue, note the names of the officers and directors of the club, re mind yourself of some of the other members of the organization and you will be able to see why the club has meant so much to the school. This group of men are leaders in their va rious vocations in the community and when they set their shoulders to the task of building a better athletic program at the school some thing was bound to happen—and it did hap pen. First president of the club, Frank Great house, spared neither time nor effort in work the group set out to do, and Evan Hendrickson, the president leader, has been diligent in his work. So have the directors; so have all the members. We do not know whom the club will elect as officers this week, but we are sure those of ficials will carry oh in a worthy and aggres sive manner the work the club has set out to do; and their fine work will put to shame the students of the school unless they are found actively supporting the athletic program which the club members have helped provide for them. Students, let’s do our part. Let’s support athletics. Smoking Is Dangerous The largest fire ever to occur in our city was possibly caused by a cigarette stub care lessly thrown into a wastebasket while still lighted. It seems to us that the students who insist upon smoking on school property would think of this dramatic occurrence and realize that it could happen in our own school and endanger the lives of several hundred innocent people. It is strictly against the rules of the school to smoke while at school. Another think to think about is that you are always a pattern for someone else. If the newcomers to the school should follow your pattern, would you want them to break the laws of the school like you do? Students, the next time you start to smoke, just think of these things and see if you can’t wait until you leave school for your smoking. Cultivate Friendliness We all want to have a good friend and be a good friend, but we don’t want just one friend but many friends. So when we walk down the halls and in the school room say “hello” or greet the students in one way or another. This will make some of the students feel welcome and not left out. Don’t say “hello” just to be polite but say it because you really mean it. Try to be more friendly and see if coming to school doesn’t seem more enjoyable each day. StroUinff In CHS Halls (By Nan Barnes and Marilyn Best) Starting on our journey our first stop was the auditotrium. Working on the stage was a group of Gold- masquers. The were fixing the rocks for the ne^t p>ay “Distant Drums”. We’ll have to admit they looked very industrious. Traveling along we came upon the biology class. They were dis cussing one-celied animals. From what we gathered the students are doing very well on this subject. As we were leaving the biology class we bumped into the maids, Lelia and Leonia, finishing their sweeping for the day and the halls looked swell. Let’s try to keep them that way. We then went upstairs and stop ped by for a chat with Coach Charles Doak’.s room. They are one of the Social Science group studying vocations. Ran into Agnes Davis as we left there and she told us about ^ her Social Science group, which is stu-. dying Current Events. We traveled on around to the Art room and found June Handley working on the Goldmasquers’ Scrap Book. As we looked about the room we saw some beautiful paintings by the art students. One that particularly caught our eye was a modern art painting copied by Lillian Haynes. Went into the Radio Studio and saw Ann Marlow rehearsing for “The Children’s Hour”, which was supposed to start Saturday, Febru ary 3. Ran into Paul Glisson on our way back to class. He was going to his locker to get his English Grammar book. He said, “I’m al ways forgetting something.” They have just finished literature. Mrs. Doris Gurley is his teacher. Got to go back to class now. So, be good until next time. Style Wiles Personality and individual taste should be the basic factors in se lecting the clothes you wear. Too many times clothes are bought be cause “they are fashionable” and not because they suit a person. Clothes, like your personality, should be strictly and exclusively You. What? Wear red with pink? Mix the right shades and the effect is sharply contrasting and definitely beautiful. Of course, personality is the key to success in dress, so per haps red or pink doesn’t look as well on you as some other color or color combination would. Navy and white, for example, are always a good investment. A basic suit of navy with white ac cessories can be absolutely charm ing. This combination has always been classed with the “neatest” and “smartest” sets. Classical black and white are the colors of the most deliberate contrast ever invented. Black with almost any color is usually smart and can be either casual or formal. Violets are nifty accessories for the school girl to have. These are now available in purple, white, pink, and lilac. Shoes have taken on a neater, more shapely look. Even casual shoes look longer, slimmer and without the old too-large look. Their colors are newer and bright er than ever. Some of them are even horrible, but the majority of the new colors are beautiful. WE HONOR . . KEDAR DAVIS PYATT, JR. A boy who is always doing some thing for the school, the church or some other worthy cause is the boy who is our honoree for this issue. He is none other than Kedar Da vis Pyatt, Jr., or as he is known to us, K. D. K. D. was born in Wadesboro on May 20, 1933 He moved to Goldsboro in 1937 and has lived here ever since. When K. D. first came to G.H.S. he started right off by entering every activity that he could. He was manager of the baseball team dur ing his freshman year and was taken into the Varsity club in the spring of that same year. Is Active Goldmasquer In his sophomore year, K. D. started his career as a Goldmas quer. Since then he has appeared in such shows as “The Shepherd Song”, “Return of the Vagabond”, “Trail of Tears”, and will be seen this week-end in the Senior-Gold masquer production, “Distant Drums”. As a junior K. D. was tapped into the National Honor Society. He again was a Goldmasquer and was parliamentarian of the Stu dent Association. This year K. D. is business manager of the “Gohis- ca”. During football season he was manager of the football programs. He is also manager of the radio workshop. After graduation, he will either go to Massachusetts Institute of Technology or Duke. As for his major he hasn’t decided between physicist and the ministry, but no matter which it will be, we know that K. D. will succeed in anything that he undertakes. gpORT€" By SALLIE SETTLE This issue this reporter would like to be serious about what’s going on in our school. Being consiedrate of people us ing the auditorium has been dis cussed in the editorial section this year—and this problem has almost entirely vanished. But, some of us forget when guests join us for assemblies. Dur ing “breaks” thoughtless people start to chatter and cause unne cessary commotion. How would you feel up on that stage talking to a group of people who appeared totally uninterested in what you had to say. Isn’t it bad enough for a person known to the people in the audience, to say the least of a stranger? VVe are very fortunate to have a great variety of good speakers presented to us each school year. I’m sure we all appreciate them but sometimes we “just forget”. Then, too, quite a few complaints have been heard about disturb ances in the hall. If you have ev er tried to concentrate on a test or hard math problem. You know how much outside noise can con fuse you. When we are in the halls and seem to have an abundance of energy, let’s remember the fel low trying to work in classrooms. Let’s not forget to remember a school with cooperation is a good school. DAWSON THOMPSON She’s smart! She’s talented! She’s witty! Need we say anymore to let you know who this girl honoree is? More? She’s cute, lively— Yes, you’ve guessed her—Carolina Daw son Thompson. Caroline, better known to us as Dawson, has made a name in G.H.S. that won’t be forgotten soon. She entered her freshman year and right then began to take part in school activities. She was in the glee club and was elected vice president of this organization. Her sophomore year she switch ed from glee club to band and re mained there two years. She also was on the building, grounds, and halls committee. This also was her first year of journalism. Dawson’s junior year was one of her outstanding years. One of the biggest things was being taken into the National Honor Society and then being elected secretarry. She also had the responsibility of being chairman of the Invitation Committee for the Junior-Senior and entertainment committee for a Hallowe’en party plus being on the building, grounds, and halls committee for the second year. Somehow, she found time also to be in the dancing revue of “The Return of the Vagabond”. If you’ve been to any nightly programs held in the audittorium this year, I’m sure you’ve seen Dawson marshaling the front right door upstairs, for she became a marshal the end of her junior year. The “Gohisca” has taken a lot of her time during the first four months of this year, for she was co-advertising manager and co-his torian. In journalism for the sec ond year she holds the job of fea ture editor. Her hard work as chairman of the foreign schools committee can easily be recognized and now she’s beginning to start work on the social committee for the senior play. You’d think that Dawson’s favor ite show would be a musical, but she said that “Our Very Own” would hit about tops for her. As for her future? Well, Daw son’s going to Converse College in South Carolina and major in mu sic. From there she’s not sure whether it’ll be concerts, piano les sons, or music just for her own pleasure. But we have no worries about her future, for whatever it will be, she’ll do her best. By RED LEWIS Thanks to: The junior class for sponsoring an inter-class game and dance. The D.E.
