Novemberv 1955 THE FULL MOON Page 3 Campus Critics Mickey ond Mason Believe At Your Risk Here we are again, students, to get some much-thought-of gripes off our bewitched little minds. Our last column didn’t seem to make an impression on our nar row -minded student body. When We came back to school last Mon day morning we found that things weren’t improved any. That screw that was loose in the fifth seat, fifth row, left side of the freshman section was lay ing on the floor beneath the seat, and the flag chain has more rust on it than ever! After much investigation by yours truly, we have found the final resting place for the money spent to fix up the “ole place.” It has all been spent to remod- elize the teachers’ lounge. We disguised ourselves as vis iting teachers so as to get into the teachers’ lounge that is lo cated behind the vault-like doors beside Miss Caughman’s room. About this time, a butler came over to get our hat and coat. Soy, we pulled one on him. We didn’t have a hat or coat! He a^sked us if we would like to bowl, or to shoot pool, or to swim, or to play Scrabble, or to play ping pong, or to dance (get this) with one of the good-look ing teachers. This was about niore than we could stand, but managed to say that we Would look around. We went into the pool room and saw (now get this) Miss yaughman and Miss Holt shoot ing pool, and to our horrified arnazement. Miss Bankett and Miss Cross were lounging around patching TV in Bermuda shorts. This was tooooo much, so we Eight Delegates Attend Meeting Eight members of the local Tri- Hi-Y clubs attended the fifteenth Annual Interstate Tri-Hi-Y Con ference held in Anderson, South Carolina, on November 4, 5, and 6. At this conference were more than 150 delegates from North and South Carolina. The theme for the Conference this year was, “My God, My Plan, My Life.” A panel discussion group was held for each of these topics, and Jane Bullock, secre tary of the Y. M. C.

Those who represented the lo cal clubs were Barbara Copley and Carolyn Helms, seniors; Ann Stone and Vicki Cranford, jun iors; Pat Smith and Carolyn Nicholds, sophomore; Linda Doby and Myra Carpenter, freshmen. “DUURING A TEST in Full Moon English, Mrs. Fry spoke to Ross Mason, “Ross, I don’t be lieve I would look at Pat s paper if I were you.” “Well, if I could see it, I could n’t read it,” was Ross’s reply. left. We heard some soft music drifting in form the main ball room. As we entered, who do you think we saw? Mr. Cash- well had booked Toskinini for three months in conjunction with “Rat” Lisk’s disk jockey show. Yes, sir, there was Mr. Cashwell sitting there with a contented smile on his face. 4.^- u We had to leave after this be fore we burst out laughing.

The answer, of course, is Dotty Walker. Dotty is a very striking, tall, green-eyed blond, with a personality that just won’t quit. These are a few of the rea sons why she was elected this month’s Who’s Who. At the homecoming game this year Dotty was elected queen of the homecoming, which is some thing every high school girl dreams of. Being on the basketball team two years has proved Dotty’s out standing ability in sports. In the afternoon after school, Dotty may be found working on the Cross roads, of which she is assistant business manager, and hurrying to finish so she can get down to the gym for basketball practice. Dotty, being very outstanding in music, was elected to the Mod ern Music Master Club in the eleventh grade, and she now serves as co-historian of this or ganization. She has held several offices in school and has been Student Council representative from her class two years. One of the best performances in the junior play last year was given by Dotty. She has been a member of the Black Masque Club two years, and in this time has showed great ability in act ing. Most of Dotty’s time is spent playing basketball or listening to popular music. She also espe cially likes to eat, and her fa vorite foods are spaghetti and lemon pie. Next year Dotty plans to attend Eastern Carolina Teachers’ Col lege. She will study to be a so cial worker, which proves her ambition in life—to help others.

These are only a few characteristics of Drag Kimrey, our Who’s Who this month. Drag was tapped into the Hon or Society this year and was elected president of the senior class. He is also a member of the Modern Music Masters. He has always been very ac tive in school, and when he en tered the ninth grade he made the varsity football team, which is mighty good for a freshman. He has lettered in football two years and in baseball three years. Rooting the basketball team along and keeping the score board was his job in the tenth grade. The Junior-Senior prom com mittee was another one of Drag’s many activities. He spent many hours working to make the prom a success. The same year he made the Mixed Chorus and was treasurer of his home room. The summer before his senior year, you could see Drag pack ing his bags for a week at Boys’ State. This was a great honor for Drag, but he certainly did de serve it. Friday nights at the football games you see Drag walking to the center of the field with the referees; this is because he was elected co-captain of the football team. Student Council representative.
