JUNIORS NEED TRAINING
From the sixth convention of the
Southern Interscholastie Press associa
tion, “High Life” brought back the cup
for the first place in class A to Greens
boro high school. “High Life” was com.
peting against all the class A high
school papers in the South, and when
judged ranked first.
The S. I. P. A. convention was
held last Friday and Saturday, October
10-11 at the Washington and Lee Uni-
Tcrsity and from Greensboro high
school were these delegates: Olivia
Branch, Goldie Goss, and Mrs. Alma G.
Coltrane, representing “High Life”;
and from “Homespun,” Miss Laura A.
Tillett, Rigdon Dees, Suaanue Ketchum,
Clary Holt, and Helen Crutchfield.
Have Full Program
The convention was of an educa
tional value, as well as entertaining.
On the first evening of the convention,
Thursday, a reception was given in the
Sigma Chi fraternity house. Friday
morning a meeting was held, when Dean
Campbell, of Washington and Lee Uni
versity, welcomed the high school stu
dents. This was followed by a short
talk from Professor Maple, also of
Washington and Lee, and who has
charge of the conventions each year.
After this the group moved to the New
Theatre where they saw a brief picture
entitled, “Reporting the World,” given
for the benefit of the delegates of the
convention. In the afternoon Friday,
Professor Maple was again heard, after
which the delegates had group meetings.
Friday a Quill and Scroll banquet
As the present staff of High Life is
composed almost entirely of seniors,
it was decided by Mrs. Alma G. Col-
traine, in collaboration with C. W.
Phillips, principal of the school, to is
sue an open invitation to all the stu
dents of the school who so wish, to
work on the staff.
The present staff is entirely too small
to put out a paper of the size of the
one now being published with any
amount of facility. Another point
der consideration is that none of the
present staff will be in school next
year and it is practically imperative
that some, at least, of the next year’s
staff be trained by actual experience
i the paper this year.
Says Mrs. Coltrane, faculty adviser
for the paper, “If the paper is to be
continued next year as it has in the
past, it is necessary for some of the
undergraduates, particularly juniors, of
the school to get in line with the work
this fail and spring, under the direc
tion of the present staff, in order to
iearn the techniqtic of putting out a
school paper. All students who think
that they have any .ability and are, in
addition, willing to put out a little
work are urged tj report to the publi
cation room for assignments.”

Delegates Return Sunday
The Greensboro high school delegates
left Greensboro Thursday afternoon
about 2 o’clock and returned Sunday
afternoon at 4:30 o’clock. It has been
customary for the convention to be held
in the spring in years past, but this
year it was changed on account of there
being so many outside activities in
spring and so that the high school edi
tors may apply whatever knowledge
that they learned at the convention be
fore school is brought so near to a close.
Much interest was aroused in a chap
ter of the Quill and Scroll among the
Greensboro high school students and it
is possible that one may be organized
in Greensboro high school. It is an or
ganization for the writers of the school
and for the purpose of bringing them
closer together, so that they may see
that each has something in common.
For the first time in a number of
years the junior class of Greensboro
high school is swaying the authorities
to the extent of changing the standard
This change will be made under the
same contract which last for more than
two more years under the same com
pany, Carolina Jewel Manufacturers.
This company is quite anxious and wil
ling to make the change. They say
they can produce a much prettier ting,
MISS LEE DISPLAYS
GREEK GOD MODELS
Modern Interpretation
Nymphs Is Shown i
Display.
>f Pan and
Library
MORE DISPLAYS ARE URGED
In the library this past week there
»s been an interesting exhibition
demlonstrating !th© now aaid modern
style in nj-mphs and images of Pan
for the garden. The outstanding feature
of this exhibition was the fine models
of Pan and his chair. These images
were made by Miss Henri Etta Lee, art
instructor, w'hile studying this summer
at Columbia university. New York.
These models are patterned in the
more modern vein, breaking away from
the old conventional styles, and are
very suitable for lawns and to be put
small gardens. There are svera!
books on the old ideas in, sculpture,
and a marked contrast can be seen
between the two forms. The books ;
“The Pageant of America,” Stobart’s
‘Glory That Was Greece’,” and Ham-
merton’s “Wonders of the Past.”
On the other display stands is a pair
of books-ends made by Miss Lee during
the summer. The book-ends represent
two monks seated in chairs of Gothic
design. For reading on this subject,
Miss Wall has “The World Book” for
reference on monks, and “The Pagenat
of America” on the Gothic styles
buildings. As a background there
a large picture of a church built in 1
Gothic style.
Miss Wall says that the display ease
in the library is empty at present. -
says that if any boy or girl has an
exhibition or collection of any kind,
she will gladly let them put it in the
library. Stamp collections, bird eggs,
or peculiar and interesting rock col
lections will be welcomed by Miss Wall.
MAKE NEW STYLE STANDARD
3 used
with leas trouble than the old
. the first.
Committees from both semesters 5
and 6 have been working on the rings
the last two or three weeks, and
the ring which is amlost definitely de
cided upon is one which will retain all
that is on the old one, and by adding
little more makes it more modern.
With an amethyst set or either a raised
the top, an engraving of the
administration building on one side,
dthe G. H. 8. seals on the other
makes it more like a college ring, except
not quite so heavy. These features also
make a ring more adaptable and at
tractive.
The semesters 3 and 4 will have a
chance of a choice of tho rings as well
i the semestersS and 6.
C. W. Phillips said if the change
made in the style of the rings, that
they will be standard as before.
