H BIG mm SENIORS
UI/ISHLIENTEBTAINEO
MANY ATTRACTIVE STUNTS SUCH AS
INTERPRETATIVE DANCING BY
JOSEPH TRANSOU AND COL-
LEGIATE HINKLE
The one event which has filled the
mind? of every Junior and Senior for
many weeks became a realitv last
Saturday night, when the Juniors en
tertained with a five course banquet
at N. C. C. W.
The banquet hall was beautifully
'decorated in the Senior colors, green
and gold, each table having as a
centerpiece a basket of cut flowers
-tied with a bow of gold tulle.
The jolly juniors showed their
usual ability and wit in the inter-
‘CSting program which they had pre
pared. Undoubtably the class of ’23
will be one of poets, all of the toasts
being delivered attractively in verse.
A toast to the Senior Class was
“well responded to by Hubert Raw
lins President. He expressed the
gratitude of the entire class to the
Juniors for such an occassion. Ap
propriate toasts were also given to
Messrs. Archer and Phillips which
were responded to in short, inter
esting speeches.
Bejtv^een 'each course the entire
party was kept laughing by the
various stunts and jokes of the juniors
which were heartily enjoyed, ^he
seniors were allowed to “See them
selves as other see them”, and a foot
ball game and senior class meeting,
all proved a source of great fun for
every one.
Special attention should be made
of the orchestra which was composed
of Mr. Giles, Harold Lashley and
Miss Folger. They played at i nter
vals throughout the evening and their
music proved a source of great plea-j
ure. Various songs were sung thru-
out the evening. The time passed
quickly amid such merrymakinj
When at last the time came to say
good-night, it was with a sad little
tinge in the hearts of the Seniors, for
it was their last Junior-Senior ban
quet. But the class of ’22 is quite
certain that time has produced none
better than the class of ’23, the pres
ent Juniors!
OF
What’s the matter with the Seni
ors? They’re all right, for they have
won the scholarship shield this
month, and have had their hands full
of “Captain Miles,” the Annual, and
all the other activities that crowd
upon the closing days of the Senior
year. We congratulate Room 106.
It seems that Miss Hall’s room
has a magic charm to cast over fail
ures. The annex shield stays in her
room again in the midst of a group
of folks that have the ridiculously
low percentage of 3 11-13 with refer
ence to C’s.
The second place in the main build
ing was won by 208; in the annexes
by Miss Grogan’s room.
The Honor Roll is as follows:
Seniors—
Carlotta Barnes, Eugenia Hunter.
Mildred Leak, Mildred Little, Mar
garet Smith, James Wilkins.
Juniors—
Thomas Neal, Ethel Stack.
Sophomores—
Dorothy Hudson, Winfield Barney,
Ina Kaplan, Garland Robbins, Wil
liam Neal, Jimmie McAlister, Rufus
Little, Charles Lipscomb, Herman
High, Wilhelmina Weiland, Patty
Webb, Katherine Shenk, Lucille
Boone, Isabel Cone, Sara Foust.
Freshmen—
Garnett Gregory, Elizabeth Smith,
Stanley .Sturm, Lois Dorsett, Wil
liam Hill, Charles Kline, Margaret
Hood, Wilma Jennings, Pauline Me-
dearis, Beatrice Williams, Margaret
Lambe, Lucille Sharp, Troxel Rey
nolds, Wayne Layton, Leah Bowman,
Virginia Bain, Bernice Henley, Lily
May Jones.
Bernice Henley’s name should have
been on the Honor Roll for the past
two months. We are glad to make
this correction.
The “Reflector” staff has de
cided to get out a special An
nual issue of “High” Life to
boost the sale of the 1922 “Re
flector.” ..The staff has worked
Unusually hard, and, with the
help of the class, has succeeded
in putting out the biggest and
best G. H. S. record ever con
tained between two covers. The
school has cooperated unusual
ly well with the Seniors in
putting their financial projects
across^ successfully. But all
must help make the sale go.
The staff hopes that every stu
dent will read the attractive
proposition the Seniors are
making, and that every Junior,
Sophomore, and Freshman will
become the proud possessor of
a 1922 “Reflector.”

ENGRAVINGS USED TO GOOD
ADVANTAGE IN “REFLECTOR”
There are many little things be
sides the copy and pictures and back
that go to make an Annual to be
proud of. These are such things as
selecting the correct borders, the
combining of certain color tones and
the proper placing of halftones and
etchings. The “Reflector” has re
ceived the best of attention along this
line, for its engraving has been in
charge of the Bureau of Engravin:
of Minneapolis, a house that has for
years done the engraving for some of
the largest college annuals in the
country. With the aid of the repre
sentatives of this house, the Staff has
been able to make each page of the
“Reflector” not only a thing of beau
ty but also one of originality.
L BOARD GUEST OF
HOME ECONOMICS CLASS
On April 4, the second year Home
Economics class was hostess to the
School Board at a six o’clock dinner.
The dinner \^as served in the Home
Economics room in Annex A. The
room was beautifully decorated w'itl.
jonquils and fern, the color scheme
of yellow and green being carried
out quite effectivelv.
The guests were greeted at the en
trance by members of the class and
easily found their places at the table
by means of dainty hand-painted
place cards.
The five course dinner which would
have tempted even a dietician, con
sisted of cocktail, breaded veal,
mashed potatoes, green peas, rolls
and butter, asparagus tip salad with
wafers, lemon delight with cake, and
black coffee.
Among those attending this din
ner, besides the members of the
Board, were: Miss Shaffer, from N.
C. C. W., Mr. Archer and G. B.
Phillips.
The evening was much enjoyed by
all present.
All the guests departed filled up.
With Bus. Swift on the mound and
the whole team playing jam-up ball
the G. H. S. nine handed the lads
from the Twin City a stinging defeat
by the score of 4 to 2, i na well
played game. A fairly large crowd
was on hand, made up mostly of town
folk, due to the fact that it was on a
Saturday, April 22. The small hand
ful of High School rooters was dis
couraging.
Greensboro followed suit in the
ond inning, after Winston had
Kored in their half of this canto on
a walk, two hits and a wild throw by
Lambert, and got on speaking terms
with the home plate when Bell sin
gled and came in on a wild heave by
Ford, a sacrifice fly by Block and a
hit by Tink Lambert. Up until the
sixth inning from then on it was tit
for tat. In Winston’s half of the
fifth frame, Joe Britton stopped a
hot liner off Gofer’s bat, through
short, fell down in so doing, but com
pleted the double play by tossing to
Block on the mid-station, while lying
down, thereby catching Ford. This
spectacular catch saved the day, for
if it had gotten through, two Winston
lads would have probably crossed the
platter.
In the sixth each team got one.
Greensboro tallied when Block sin
gled after two were out and came
home on an error by Ford and Gofer.
Winston scored when Long singled
and scored on Sapp’s sacrifice hit.
Lambert’s error and a fielder’s choice
and an error by Joe Britton. After
this inning Swift put the screws on
them and Winston went hitless and
scoreless for the remainder of the
game.
Greensboro’s big inning was in the
7th when they talked to the home
plate two times. Swift started things
by securing a free trip to the initial
sack. Williamson then got on by an
attempt by Sapp to catch Swift at

Seeing that the main object of this
article is to produce at little mirth
we’ll begin with that “producer of
diaphram convulsions,’’ “Doctor
Longhorn.” Greetings, “Doctor,” as
a haughty gentleman, sir, you are the
essence of Kentucky chivalry. With
out a doubt, when you give your
trousers a hitch-up with demure dis
dain, and say, “yes ma’am,” to a little
girl knee-high to a duck, my heart
leaps and my soul expands within
me, ah, there’s a gentleman.
Now we come to an equation dif
ficult to arrive at and more difficult to
solve.
Miss Gressitt, “Ave Imperator mo-
rituri te salutant.” Super-mathemati
cian, we struggling hair-brains look
up to you as the omnipotent embodi
ment of mathematical perfection. Ef
ficiency and accuracy glow from the
emblazonments of your crest, your
weapons, rule and compass, cut deep
into false proof and encircle all truth
and scientific deduction with a chalk
line as firm and unbreakable as steel.
May you ever be an inspiration to
Seniors in G. H. S.
Next is the school’s “Powder
Plant,” quick tempered Miss Dorsett.
She’s got a temper all right, but she
has never seriously injured anybody
yet. She sure can recite poetry, if
she had just written a few to auto
graph, Vachel Lindsay and his “Gal-
liope” wouldn’t be in it. Mr. Zieg
field with his “Follies” doesn’t com
pare with her.
Here she is, that little curly-headed
frisk, Miss Tyre. She goes gallivant
ing around the school, chirping and
vamping all the big boys. She likes
to boss, too, but who wouldn’t if they
could do the things she can. She can
out-sing Galli-Gurci, and if there is
such a thing as a she Beau Brummel
she is her.
Talking about a white man, Mr.
White is sure him. He can take more
foolishness and at the same time teach
more history than any man on two
feet. He has a bounteous quantity of
dry wit that can offset that of his
most humorously inclined student.
Long may his name be on the faculty
roll of Greensboro’High School.
There you are, “Gharlie” dear, with
your winning ways, more than one
winsome lass has been heard to say
that her highest ambition was to en-

STUDENTS TO HAVE BIG MASS
MEETING
Bring all the pep, school spirit
and oratorical ability you possess,
with you to chapel Monday and Tues
day. At these times the chapel pro
grams will be placed in charge of the
“Reflector” staff and a full swinging
campaign will be launched for the
sale of Annuals. At this time men
and women from town who are inter
ested in the welfare of G. H. S., stu
dents and teachers, will all make
brief talks to boost the high school’s
year book. Payment for the books
will be made in two installments, a
dollar down and two upon delivery
of book.
The Grensboro High School lads
made it three straight Tuesday after
noon, April 25th when they handed
the fast Graham nine the meager ex
tremity of a 11 to 1 score. The team
probably played its best game of the
season and with Williams taking
Britton’s place at third and Britton
taking William’s place at short, the
infield pulled some fast plays, well
above the high school average. In
this particular game two fast double
plays were executed.
Greensboro started off in beautiful
form. Adams filled his role and drew
a free pass. Britton laid down a beau
tiful bunt intended for a sacrifice,
but beat it out. Williams then
brought “Judge” Adams in with a
hit, and Britton tallied when Block
smacked out a one-bagger. Williams
chalked up another on Bell’s long
sacrifice fly to center field. Swift
then went out, third to'first, retiring
the side.
The Graham crew looked like they
wanted to start something, but were
squelched by Wrenn and Adams who
held up the proverbial tar bucket for
two long clouts. In the second Greens
boro had a merry-go-round and with
two doubles, a single, three errors
and three walks, marked up six tal
lies in this canto alone. They took it
easy for two more innings, but in the
fifth scored one more time on Goop-
er s double, Adam’s sacrifice and '
Britton s single. In the seventh they
scored again when Swift got life
when he was tapped by the elongated
Wilson, stole second, got to third
when Thompson let loose with a wild
heave.
As for Graham, Gooper had them
literally eating from his hand, allow
ing only one scratch bingle through
out the game. Graham’s only score
came in the sixth as a result of some
horse play on the part of the Greens
boro nine. Gooper tossed every other
ball to the bags in an attempt to
catch a man asleep, as a result he
walked a couple and one filtered
through when Britton decided to make
his daily error. Except for this in
ning, Gooper, backed by brilliant
fielding and himself pitching dazzl
ing ball, had the Graham boys at his
mercy.
Other features of the game besides
Gooper’s work were the two double
plays executed by the infield, and
Britton’s hitting. This youngster got
two singles and a double out of five
times up.
