Speak in Aflernoon
The annual Social Standards
Day will be observed in Senior
High School on Thursday, No
vember 16. Keynote speaker is
to be the Reverend Kenneth
Goodson, pastor of the "Wesley
Memorial Methodist Church in
High Point. Mr, Goodson spoke
on Social Standards Day four
years ago when he was the as
sistant pastor of West Market
Street Methodist Church here
in Greensboro.
The topic will be “Our Wide,
Wide World.” It is designed to
take in every phase of living in
the world today, and students
will have the opportunity to
think labout their vocation, en
tertainment, hobbies, the world
siuation, and the spiritual side
of life. The program was devel
oped by a student council com
mittee, headed by Henrietta Bell
and Jimmy Betts, with Miss
Dorothy McNairy and Miss Lu
cille Brown as faculty advisers.
The students will go from
homeroom to the morning assem
bly where Rev. Mr. Goodson will
deliver his address. The pro
gram at this time will include
musde. From here, at about
1.0:30, students will go to vari
ous vocational interest groups.
Preference Shown
Of these vocations offered at
this time, engineering for the
boys and secretarial work and
nursing for the girls seemed to
be the most popular. Both
teachers and students have as
sisted the committee in obtain
ing speakers for these group
meetings. Business and profes
sional men and women from
Greensboro and several neigh
boring cities will lead discus
sion 'groups. Students will be
assigned to their various groups
in the homerooms.
Prom 11 ;45 to 1:15, a lunch
curriculum, extra curricular activi
ties, a special scohol for such as!and recreational period will be
Journalism, Business Administra- observed. The home economics
tion, and available scholarships or
help. Many of the parents of stu
dents consulted the representatives
also.
Those schools represented were:
Wake Forest, State, Carolina, Duke,
Clemson, Citadel, Woman’s Col
lege, Salem, St. Mary’s, Meredith,
Peace, Brevard, Pheiffer, Black
Mountain, Avery, Sullins, Converse,
Hollins, Stratford, Mary Baldwin,
Sweet Briar, Agnes Scott, Mary

Guilford, High Point, Fairfax Hall,
Virginia Intermont, Lenoir Rhyne,

tian, Limestone.
The Home Economics Depart
ment had a luncehon for the .guests
and the members of Torchlight.
Hosts for the event were the stu
dents who belong to the Honor
Society.
During the week several other
North Carolina cities held College
Day, an annual event. This enabled
the school to have more represent
atives here. It was due to the much
greater number of contacts with
students the representatives could
make.
Those who represented the col
leges gave various literature con
cerning the institutions to the stu-
dents with whom they talked. They i ^ ^
also showed the pupils annuals and mayor-pi;o-tem of
department will prepare and
serve lunch to the speakers for
the day. Students will find sev
eral forms of entertainment and
recreation at this time, the high
light being the traditional stu
dent-faculty softball game.
Frazier Speaks in Afternoon
After lunch, special interest
groups will be held. Of these,
the most popular were sports
and music, although music as
a vocation was in demand for
the morning sessions also. Be
cause of the large number sign
ing up for the discussion group,
“Korea As I Saw It,” it was
necessary to divide the appli
cants into two groups. John K.
Wilson and Miss Mildred Cher
ry, both of w'hom have recently
been to Korea, will be the speak
ers.
At 2:30, Rolaert Frazier will
speak to the group as a wiiole.
Pupils wnil return to their home
rooms at this time and go in
their regular groups-to the audi-
Mr. Fra-
other booklets from their respect- Greensboro, will have as his top-
ive schools.
