On my ar rival there I decided I would don my sailor cap and key chain and vGnturG up town to viGW 3.11 txiG tourists. ^ . . My first stop was at the tair. Since teachers aren’t millionaires I wasn’t surprised to see Mr. Robinette a barker at a side show featuring the fat lady and sword swallower. The sword swallower was none other than Coach Benton. I waved to them and decided to mosey on over to the pavilion. I pushed my sailor cap to one side of my head and started toward the jukebox. Sud denly a burst of smoke appeared beside me on the sidewalk distributed fumes that would choke a dinosaur. Hearmg a blood curdling laugh, I gazed up ward to see R. C. Hatley leaning down from the upper floor with another sulphur hydrate stink bomb grasped in his hand, so I jumped out of the way. He seemed to be having a great time doing this to all the passers-by, so I didn’t yell at him. Beside the jukebox I noticed someone shagging to Ole 99 and much to my surprise it was Coach Webb, decked out in a chartruse sport shirt. Miss Caugh- man was also cutting a rug Spen cer Hatley just stood at the side veiling, “Go, cat, go! . This was too much for a digni fied eirl like me so, I jumped into my Jaguar and headed for the Recreation Center. I passed Miss Bankett while entering the door, but she didn’t notice me. She was too busy sncwing some boy Inside. Mr. Pendergraft was sitting at a table sipping lemonade and shooting a line in French to a blonde. I noticed that she was slapping him :^e- ouently. - He found out later that she was from France. Strolling onto the dance floor I was shock ed to see Mr. Cashwell leading Tgroup in the bunny hop. He seemed to be having a great time. That boogie haircut certainly was ^^The ^^t morning I took a trip to Jungleland to see all the animals. I had hardly gotten m fhe^ate when I spotted Mr. Fry leading a group of monkeys and narrots in harmonizing Char- fottetown.” A figure was kneel ing down beside the flamingo case throwing something into a slcK It turned out to be Mrs. ^^Ihlfwal mVSl I realized the beach was no place for me anv more, so I threw my suitecase fnto my jkguar and started home. lettuce, thousand island dres sing pickles, olives, celery, rolls, Sr!^ apple cobbler, and a bev erage.

That’s Lydia; but she’s not a blonde! That’s peroxide!” One of the best-all-around seniors this year is Lydia Hall! Her friendly voice, warm smile, and sincere enthusiasm have made her one of the most popu- ler girls in school. Last spring Lydia was tapped into the National Honor society and this year is vice-president of the society. Because of her drawing ability, Lydia has ben chosen art editor of the “Crossroads.” Lydia’s suc cess in writing has won her the important role of news editor on the Full Moon. Lydia has been a Student Coun cil member at large for two years. As part of her work on the Stu dent Council this year, Lydia is the chairman of the mural com mittee. Albemarle high was well rep resented at Girls’ State this sum mer with Lydia as our represen tative. She received this hon or because of her loyal support and true interest in the school! “Who will the lucky fellow be?” He must be cute, tall, dark, friend ly, and very sincere. Have you already found him, Lydia? Lydia’s ideal moments are when she is slumped over a chair with an orangeade in one hand and cheese crackers in the other. Lydia diets! She eats Hollywood bread! Sitting beside her must be a record player which js stack ed high with be-bop records or a picture of Robert Wagner, her favorite star! “I detest fifth period sociology! No fault of Mr. Robinette’s though. They kid me all the time about a certain member of the class.” Look out, Duke and W. C., Lydia may be coming your way to con tinue her studies in art! Lydia has not yet completed her col lege plans. We know which ever place she chooses will greet her with open arms. Good luck, Lydia. m THE CITY BARBER SHOP All Patronage Appreciated — BARBERS — Henry Thompson Lester Disk J. W. Sides RALPH SETZLER “There goes number 14 again, charging down the field to make another touchdown for Albe marle.” This seems to be quite a habit with a certain tough and speedy senior. As one of the Charlotte News sports writers so aptly worded it, “He’s one of the hottest numbers in the state.” Ralph Setzler has played foot ball for four years and has proven himself worthy of bein^ chosen as one of the co-captains of the A.H.S. football team' as well as the vice-president of the Mono gram club in his junior year. It’s obvious that Ralph’s greatest love in the line of sports is football, but that doesn’t Nstop him from participating in softball, tennis, basketball, intramurals and the annual Field Day. As captain of the Junior Hi-Y basketball team, he proved to an even great er extent his good sportsmanship and athletic ability. During his early high school days Ralph was one of the friend liest and most popular boys in his class. His teachers and friends knew that he would do well any job that he tackled; therefore he was elected as a student body and a home room officer in his sophomore year and gave freely of his time as a member of the decoration committee for the big event of his junior year, the Jun- ior-Senior Prom. More was add ed to his long list of honors when, in his senior year, he was chosen sports editor of the Full Moon and was tapped into the National Honor society. When the Annual staff meets you will always find Ralph there as the editor of the “Crossroads.” Ask him> if he likes school and he’ll say yes, but homework and getting up in time to be there at 8:30—no! On the “must” list of Ralph’s many activities you will find that a movie starring Rock Hudson and Virginia Mayo and a treat of steak, shrimp or fried chicken is tops. You surely won’t find a certain blonde graduate of A. H. S. at the bottom of his list. Council Corner (Financial Report) For the month of September we have paid out $814.68 along with the bills for regular stock in the store and concession.

Ralph is undecided about the college that he will attend to further his education, but we’re sure that any school would wel come a friendly, dependable, co operative leader such as Ralph.
