A list of the movies shown in the community for the past year has been compiled by the group. The students have analyzed the films on the basis of what “ex perts” have said about them, plus their own opinions. Each picture has been rated as either Superior, Good, Fair, or Poor, and classified according to type. The year’s overall picture has been checked to see how many of “the year’s best,” according to critics, have appeared. a pantomime entitled “All For Dear Aunt Matilda.” Illustrating that a good drill for losing the tenseness of the body is a short monologue, Betsy Lewis presented “Sally Reads the News paper.” To show another phrase of the Masque and Gavel activities, a tape recording was made of a radio skit. Taking part in this were Jim Casey, George Eanes, Dean Mac Pruette, Gail Arm strong, Barbara Cook, Larry Sledge, and Betsy Lewis. This skit was “The Ghost,” a weird story by Guy de Maupassant. Giving a preview of the talent which is contained in the group of inductees, two of the new mem bers, both from the Junior Class, made brief talks. First, Larkin Kirkman gave a serious talk en titled “High Point Senior High School Needs a Swimming Pool”; then Watts Childress gave a hu morous talk on “New Year’s Re solutions.” Hig-h Point Steam Laundry 228 North Wrenn St. DIFFENDAL’S (Incorporated) FLOOR COVERINGS Sales and Installations 743 North Main Street PHONE 3066 ALLEN B.
