Young Phillips Introduced By Mar
shall Campbell—Gertrude Hobbs
Enters as Miss Mitchell
One of the most interesting and amus
ing programs of the year was heard in
Chapel, Thursday January 14, by the
students and teachers of the Main Build
ing. Miss Grogan’s session room of
Seniors imitated the teachers.
As usual Mr. Phillips started the pro
gram but this time not by an announce
ment but by introducing to the crowd
young Wade Wiley Phillips. Marshall
Campbell entered the chapel with a bye-
lo-baby in his arms and took a seat on
the platform. “Yes, he’s daddy’s own
little boy.” They wouldn't name him for
his daddy, but he looks like his daddy.
Hey, let’s put a soft pedal on this loud
speaker!”
Gertrude Hobbs entered as Miss Mitch
ell and after commenting on the tardy
teachers and the students, especially
Roy Smith, took her place at the desk
and took up her work where she had
left off. Miss Blackmon, impersonated
by Irene Hester, tried in vain to stop
her class from talking.
Troy Ziglar “took oft'” Mr. Rowe by
saying “Had a fine time down at David
son, a keen time at that House Party,
you know. Some of the fellows got
pretty high; but we’ve got to get down
to work now.”
Margaret Crews imitated Miss LeRoy
giving directions in Hockey so fast the
referees didn’t even try to hear, just
recognized her speed. Mary Price imi
tated Mrs. Asheford and told Miss Mitch
ell that she was really going, to Oxford.
“Poor little darling, doesn't know any
thing ! Well, you come and put the first
sentence on the board and let us see
how much you know,’’ said Miss Martin
alias Ruth Curtis.
“Pete” Peterson as Mr. Stanley John
son had to secure Mr. Phillips’ aid in
getting the hall-loafers to move on.
Elizabeth L^mberger is so small she
had to stand in a chair to be Miss Green-
waldt. She portrayed her anyway. “I
do-wish 1- had another—Chocolate ice
cream, Evelyn,—what's-in-that bundle.”
Perhaps the feature of the program
was Miss Wheeler. Helen Felder per
sonified this lady declaring that she had
had a date with the sweetest man, last
night, and the night before that and
the night before that.
Sammy Goode must have spent some
time listening to Mr. Wunsch talk. He
had him down ‘Jjat” in his giving of
stage directions.
Mary Lyon “took off” Miss Tillett,
“I can't understand why you Seniors ■
always have some thing to do.” j
Paul Scurlock was Mr. Coltrane and j
Mary Price was Mrs. Orr, going around j
closing all mouths in the library. “We !
ELIZABETH BOYST
SPEAKS ON THRIFT
At Miss McAlpixe's
Today:—
I arrived in New York terday fer the
Nashunal Hi Schule Newspaper Contest
whuts to be held here terday and ter-
rnorrow. I shore did git a classy place
ter sleepe. Hits at Miss McAlpine’s.
She shore has got a big house. I got
a crick in my neck frum looking up at
the top of hit. BUT I’ll say that she
haint very sociable. She haint spoke
ter me yit but I reckon she has got too
many visitors fer that. Her grocery
bill must be awful. When I fust got
here a little black niggur run and grab
bed my bag, but I hollored “Help!
Police!’’ and you shud a seen that air
niggur run. Then I signed my name in
Miss McAlpine’s memory book. Mr. Mc-
Alpine tole me ter take the alligator or
whutever hit is up to the ninth floor.
Law sakes when I got inside, that air
contrapshun flew up inter space! I
tried ter grab a holt uv somethin’ but
there wuzzn’t nothing ter grab holt uv
so I held on ter a nigguh what wuz a
settin on a little seat in the corner uv
the box. Then I finally got off I run
inter my rume ez soon ez I cood. I
looked all over fer the lamp and finally
found it a setting upside down. I tried
ter life hit, but there wuzznt no place
ter life hit so I got Mr. McAlpine ter
send up a nigguh ter do hit for me.
When I went ter the zoo a feller
asked me ef I had seen his black ante
lope and he chassed me out jest becuz I
ast him who his black anteloped with.
When I asked a aviator would he take
me fer a little fly he said no, I looked
more like a little bum.
Them jieople up in New York mus
not see nothing but baseball games. I
heard the fellow in the rume, necks to
me say his prayer and he says, says he:
God bless ma—God bless pa— God bless
Babe- Rah! Rah! Rah!
I noticed a man crawling awl over
the street in front of his house and when
I say to him what are you doin’he
says “looking for a lumj) o’ cole I threw
at the cat last summer.’’
BOY SCOUTS GIVE A RATHER
UNIQUE CHAPEL PROGRAM
{Continued from page one)
Tenderfoot-Investiture, or initiation cere
monial of the new scout.” In this the
boys were shown taking their first scout
oaths. The second scene told of the
scout's first duty, to his God; in scene
three, the scout’s second duty, to his
country, was shown; in scene four, the
audience saw the scout’s third duty to
his fellowinen, whom he is at all times
ready to aid and care for; and scene
number five showed the scout’s fourth
duty to himself, presented by a boxing
match.
The third act, “The Big Game,” was
divided into three scenes which showed
some of the plays in the great game of
scouting. The first scene showed the
method of flag signaling, scene two had
to do with the rudiments of engineering,
taught in scouting and the final scene
“The Woodman,” which “takes us back
to the life of the Indian and pioneer,
satisfying that craving for the out of
doors that lies deep in the hearts of each
of us,” Mr. Humphreys concluded.
The final scene left the impression that
the day's work was ended and they lay
wrapped in blankets around the fire to
have a good rest.
The music for the different scenes was
furnished by George Dickison, violin and
Mary Elizabeth King, pianist. Among
their selections were, “Rose Marie” and
“Indian I.ove Call.”
need cars bad. Can’t any of you offer
cars to take the team to Winston-Salem
and don’t forget to buy your athletic
ticket”, said Chester Strader for Mr.
Herbert Johnson.
Inez Murray as Miss Causey gave the
Hockey team some encouragement;
and Miss Summerell, Dorothy Lea, gave
her class one hundred lines of Latin,
ten lines to memorize and a note-book
to hand in.
Bob Bishop had Mr. Aycock talking
about track in his u.sual manner; Joe
Faulkner as Mr. F’ordhain said, “Boys,
I'm going to let you off this evening but
wait a minute—five times around the
field before you go.’’
Nelda Cox was Miss East and Cecilie
l.indau impersonated Miss Grogan. “You
talk entirely too much, come and sit by
dear teacher, come and sit by dear teach
er. Well, we really have Mr. Holder
with us. He’s usually late in the A. M.
and late in the P. M.”
“Infants will be infants, but you child
ren really must hurry on,” said Caro
lyn Simmons as Miss Walker.
1 hen last of all came the broom, cap
and coat of Wheeler and inside them
was Chester Strader. He picked up some
paiier; and as he made his exit the audi
ence did too.
NEW DEBATING CLUB
RESUMED WORK TODAY
On account of ]irevailing conditions
such as lack of attendance and unneces
sary disturbances at the meetings of the
Debating Club, the executive staff in
joint session with the faculty advisors
met Friday 6, and revised the constitu
tion. The club will be practically a new
distinct organization and will meet ev-
er_v Friday in room 201. There will be
about fifteen charter members and those
wishing to enter later must be voted in
by the club. There will be an initiation
similar to that of college debating socie
ties. These changes, which look for
ward to real development will serve to
make Greensboro High School Debating
Club one of the most select societies at
G. H. S.
Substituted for Original Speaker—Mr.
Phillips Also Makes Im
promptu Talk
A talk of Thrift was planned for Chap
el Wednesday, January 20, but through
some misunderstanding the original plan
had to be cancelled. Elizabeth Boyst,
who was to introduce the absent speak
er, made a short talk on thrift. Follow
ing this Mr. Phillips made an impromtu
speech.
“If I were a boy again”, he said, “I
would get out and earn some money
during my spare time. I earned my
first money by gardening. My father
gave me the use of a plot of ground and
I made twenty dollars from the sum
mer’s work. For one job I had during
my college career I made but little over
a dollar a day. The same job would pay
that much an hour now.
He told an incident of a boy who
was eager to work, but could secure no
position. Seeing a placard that a horse
was wanted, he applied for the position.
“But I want a horse, not a man,” said
the surprised proprietor.
“Yes, and I want a job. I’ll do the
work of the horse.”
The youth was finally given a trial
and set out pulling a dray. Later in
the day the employer received a message
that one of his men had been injured.
On investigating he found the boy with
a battered head and fractured limbs.
Upon inquiring the employer learned
that the boy had delivered all his pack
ages and was returning to the store
when a piece of paper flew up in his face
The youth was so determined to fill
his position as horse that he felt called
upon to run away.
“SEVEN CHANCES”
IS GREAT SUCCESS
{Continued from page one)
roars of laughter broke out as the wit in
the drama issued forth.
Chester Strader as Jimmy Shannon
and Paul Scurlock as Billy Meekin, did
tlie hest acting of the evening. Both
acted like veterans and filled their parts
a'most to perfection. Probably the best
actress was Elizabeth Umberger as Anne
Windsor, the leading lady. She acted
with poise and dignity, playing her part
well.
Through all the brilliant banqueting
scene and dancing the entire cast pre
sented a truly modern appearance and
acted their parts well. The cast follows:
Earl Goddard, Marvin Isley; Joe Spence,
Orden Goode; Ralph Denby, John Meb-
ane; Henry Garrison, Edward McNee-
ly; George, waiter in the club, Clarence
Phoenix; Jimmy Shannon, Chester Stra
der; Mrs. Garrison, Elizabeth Crews;

1 revor, Ruth Curtis; Shirley, waitress in
the club, Margaret Crews; Peggy Wood,
Cecile IJndau; Florence Jones, Gertrude
Hobbs; Betty Willoughby, Mary Lyon;
and Ted Sterling, Dick Ziglar.

erty manager. Charlotte Van Nopjien,
Myra Wilkerson, Phil Wicker, John

New York. Morrison-Neese Furniture
Company furnished the furniture and
Milton Electric Co. the lighting fixtures.

chestra directed by Mr. Rowe, furnished

vorable comments.
