Cowgirl Twirls Again
“I was startled, but honored
to be chosen Kiwanis boy for
October,” said Frank Inscoe,
senior class president.
Frank is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. William T. Inscoe of 723
Falls Road. As president of the
senior class, Frank has become
very involved in his school. He
wants to give the students,
especially the seniors, an op
portunity to participate in the
activities of Rocky Mount
Senior High. In achieving this
goal, Frank has started two
committees. The gift committee
will plan what type of gift the
senior class will give to RMSH.
The senior privileges coni-
mittee, which must be started
again every year, will give the
seniors special privileges.
Along with his reponsibilities as
president, Frank is a member
of the National Honor Society
and a player on the boy’s tennis
team.
Why does Judy Rivenbark
carry a rifle with her wherever
she goes? Because she is a
member of the Rifle Guard and
is true to her title. She knows
that in order to be successful,
she must practice.
Judy works part-time as a
cashier at Kerr Drug’s. She
carries her rifle to work
everyday and whenever she’s
not waiting on a customer, she
pulls out her handy practice
rifle and goes through her
routine behind the counter.
Once one of her fellow workers
saw her practicing and ex
claimed. '‘What are you
doing?" Judy sweetly replied,
■ I'm practicing to ride shotgun
in my carpool next week.”
Although Judy jokes about
her rifle, she takes her practice
very serious. F^ven on
weekends, when she is supposed
to rest and enjoy herself, this
girl cannot break her'habit of
constant practice. Wherever she
goes, be it on a dale or just out
lo have a good time with
friends, her rifle goes too.
Where ver the monotony becomes
too great to bear, and she
realizes she is bored. Judy
simply pulls out her rifle and
starts to practice.

Outside of the school, Frank
enjoys practicing tennis, flying
kites, skate boarding, and of
course chasing girls. He also
works at Kerr Drugs in
Tarrytown Mall and attends
Falls Road Baptist Church and
its youth group.
In furthering his education
after high school, Frank plans
to attend the Naval Academy at
Annapolis, Md. He believes that
it provides a good opportunity
for a person with his interests.
Every Thursday of the month,
Frank will attend the Kiwanis
Club Luncheon at the YMCA as
an honored guest. Being
Kiwanis boy, he will receive a
free dictionary. So if anyone, in
the next few weeks, sees a tall,
slender, dark-haired boy with a
great big smile on his face
thumbing through a book;
remember that it’s Frank In
scoe looking through his FREE
dictionary.
Judy attributes her success in
the Rifle Guard to her childhood
ambition. “I always wanted to
be a cowgirl,” she said, “and a
member of the Rifle Guard is as
close lo a cowgirl as I ever
came. After all, I get to wear a
full skirt, bools, and a hat and
best of all, I get to carry a
rifle.”
Althougii Judy’s friends have
tried to break her from this
embarrassing habit, they have
not been very successful. She
continues to practice with no
concern as to where she is and
with no concern as to how many
potential friends she has scared
away. (Picture yourself
walking up to a group of girls
you’d like to become friends
with, and suddenly one of them
pulls a rifle out). But being
faithful friends, they will stand
by her and will continue to
applaud whenever she finishes
a practice routine.
Although this account may be
a little difficult to digest, don’t
doubt its contents. Judy is not
unique; she is just one of the
many hard-working members
of the band. After all, haven’t
you ever heard the old saying,
“Practice makes perfect.”
Mini-Parade Creates Interest
Paper, paint, bubble gum,
wagons: These were the
makings of the Homecoming
Mini-Parade.
All told, 26 entries were in the
spectacle, and by the end, the
“cream” had been chosen.
First place went to the
Masquers, second to Homeroom
204, and third place _went to
Homeroom 120. “The best pep
rally/mini-parade in years”
was how several teachers
described the event, and the
service club expressed its
appreciation for the support it
received.
Time, money, work (after
school, even), all played an
important part. The originality
of RMSH students climbed to
new heights when Homecoming
time rolled around. “How can
we get a tail to stay on” and
“What if the wheels fall off.”
were questions frequently voiced
and a day or two before the
big event, you could almost feel
the tenseneee (and terror) of
participants. Still, most of the
students believed that it was
worth the effort and worry and
bother. “When you do. the best
you can do and feel proud of
your work, then you have a good
float” was the consensus of
most of the students par
ticipating in the parade.
VICA-ICT Clubs
Attend Conference
The leadership conference
and hopes for a successful
barbecue sale heightened ac
tivity for VICA-ICT students in
October.
The leadership conference
was attended by the ICT of
ficers and provided meaningful
assistance for them. The pur
pose of the conference was to
prepare and instruct the of
ficers concerning the
requirements and demands of
their respective offices. At the
conference, groups were set up,
separating the presidents in
one, vice presidents in another,
and the treasurers and
secretaries in another.
The main money-making
project for ICT in the near
future will be the barbecue sale.
It will be held in November,
with the money going to pay for
the leadership conference, state
contests, and the employees
banquet in the spring. The
committees have been set up to
work sales, and the top
salesmen having sold 20 or
more orders will receive a free
steak dinner.
The new ICT officers have
been chosen, and they are
David Thompson, president;
Andre Bissette, first vice
president; Pamela Wilson,
second vice president;
secretary, Vicky Tanner;
treasurer, Earl Yemens; and
editor, Mike Tapia.
