Vacation For Mar\owitz
Is '‘Dream Come True”
Have you ever fallen down the
stalls in Grand Central Station?
That’s exactly what Jane Marko
witz, senior, did to start off her
summer with a bang.
Along with 17 other out-of-state
girls and two chaperones, Jane
left New York July 11 for a five
weeks guided tour of Canada and
Western United States. After
reaching the Canadian border via
Chicago, the girls had to walk
across it, in order to board the
Canadian-Pacific train.
Canoeing, riding ski lifts, see
ing open-topped buses stop long
enough to allow bears to cross the
road, added to the girls’ thrill and
delight in Canada. After having a
picturesque tour of Victoria, the
group then traveled by boat to
Seattle, Washington.
From there, they journeyed by
train on the famous Shasta Route
to San Francisco. Although the
party of girls shared a whole car,
one girl had a rather hard time
explaining to the railroad office
just how she had happened to
leave her ring in the men’s room.
Touring Chinatown, visiting the
Fisherman’s Wharf, seeing Alca
traz, and hearing a Navy Band
Concert added to the glamour of
San Francisco for the group.
From Yosemite Park to Glacier
Point where the Fire Falls origt-,,.
nate, came a several days visit to
Laguna Beach. Here the girls saw
the interesting House of a Million
Shells, the only one of its kind in
the world. They also visited Ti
juana, New Mexico.
On to Holljwood and Beverly
Hills in Los Angeles, the group
saw 40 homes of famous movie
stars, ate at the original Brown
Derby and saw Steve Allen’s tele
vision show, among other interest
ing things.
Jane was scared to death when,
at Knotts Berry Farm, a noted
Western ghost town, she rode a
miniature train and was one of
the victims of a make believe
hold-up staged at the end of the
ride.
At the Hollywood Bowl, the tour
heard Andre Kostelanetz, guest
conductor, and William Warfield
and his wife, who were guest
singers. They also saw the dan
cers, Marge and Gower Champion.
After visiting Disneyland and
Grauman’s Chinese Theater, where
movie stars have their footprints
or signatures in the front pave
ment, Jane and the girls traveled
on to the Grand Canyon. Says
Jane of the Canyon, “Two other
girls and I walked about a mile
down the canyon and wouldn’t
have made it back if it hadn’t
been for three boys who came to
our rescue half pulling and half
pushing us back up.”
. The last stop was Estes Park,
Colorado. On August 19, the train
with the same girls and two chap
erones, pulled into Grand Central
Station.
When asked of her summer’s ad
venture, Jane remarked, “This
summer was certainly a dream
come true.”
Lady Fortune Pays Visit
To Miss Maude Carter
“Yippee! What I’ve always want
ed—an aqua dinette set!” might
have been the exclamation of Miss
Maude Carter when she discover
ed Lady Fortune had gifted her
with a prize from the new Kroger
Grocery Store. ♦
Miss Carter’s luck materialized
one day during the summer when
she took a little trip to Kroger’s
—(yes, the “One cent profit from
every dollar” Kroger’s). As she
strolled around the store, buying
her groceries and birdseed (musn’t
forget Tweetie Pie), she encount
ered a box. Refusing to budge
without an explanation, she found
some cards and decided it was a
contest box. Far be it from Miss
Carter to ever pass up such an op
portunity, so she signed a card
for the lucky drawing.
Lo and behold, whose card
should be picked out but Miss
Carter’s. She had a choice of
prizes—a set of tubeless tires, an
electric sweeper, a window fan, a
set of golf clubs and a dinette
suite. After analyzing these possi
bilities she chose the dinette suite.
She rushed down to Sears to
get her prize. No, she didn’t carry
it home piggy-back. It was de-
livered to her apartment and in
no time replaced the old and much
used dinette set. A slight difficul
ty had to be overcome in removing
the old one. In fact, tife legs had
to be disjointed (sob! sob!)
When M3ss Carter’s landlord
eyed her new furniture, he decided

that the kitchen walls weren’t fit
surroundings for such “finery.”
He proceeded to have the room
painted — bright yellow. Alas!
Alack! The new paint job shamed
the other rooms, so he had to re
do the whole apartment.
Celebrities And Pupils
Possess Pet Peeves
“Oh, how that irks me!” “you
want to go to me moon right
quick?” “You’re gonna get yours!”
Any or all of these exclamations
are issued forth from the student
who owns a pet peeve.
Idiosyncrasies seem to be preva
lent throughout the human race,
and the pupils at Senior High are
no exceptions.
However, Sidney Oliver denies
possessing a pet peeve “until some
body starts yelling.” There are
three who readily asquiesce on
their peculiarities, while Carolyn
Paschal voices the same opinion.
Carolyn is effervescent with pet
peeves, it seems. She abhors being
excluded from the boys’ conversa
tion on dates. In retaliation of this
sentiment, David Wible states his
case vice versa.
Betty Sapp’s pet peeve is the
ever popular, persistent, proverb
ial pencil-player. Jane Markowitz
is constantly being confused with
Heinz Worchestershire Sauce.
While on the subject of Con-
fusionism, Marilyn Monroe nearly
blew her top when compared to
Audrey Hepburn. After all, Marilyn
has a much better mind than Au
drey. George Gobel converts into
a dirty bird when compared with
Barry Startz.
Rhett Butler's “destination” is
seeing his hat “go with the wind.”
A new pet peeve of Estes Kefauver
is the newly-acquired popularity
of David Crockett, who stole his
gimick. Coonskin caps and all that,
old bean!
Topping the scales is Jackie
Gleason whose provocation is peo
ple who don’t glut their faces.
(Study that connotation, Webster!)

Pickin' The Pix
By Elwood Hartman
Hello there! I hope you have
survived these first two weeks of
school. Getting used to doing home
work after those carefree summer
months surely is tough, and it
doesn’t leave much time for pleas
ure. So why not spend your free
night or plan to have your week
end date at the CAROLINA THE
ATRE where you always find en
tertainment at its best?
Starting Sunday at the CARO
LINA is the Alfred Hitchcock pro
duction, “To Catch A Thief” Star
ring Cary Grant and Grace Kelly.
This suspense packed, intriuging
plot promises to live up to all
the superlatives associated with a
Hitchcock production. Filmed on
the beautiful French Riviera in ^
Technicolor and magnificent Vista
Vision, this tension-loaded drama
relates the story of a reformed
jewel thief, who because of several
recent robberies rfeminiscent of
his old technique, is forced into
hiding. Knowing that he would be
immediately suspected and jailed
by the police, he sets out to find
the real thief, thus clearing him
self of the robberies. During his
quest he meets rich and lovely
Grace Kelly. He plans to use her
and her diamond-covered mother
as bait for the real thief. However,
while Grant is set to catch a thief.
Miss Kelly is set to catch Grant.
As you can see, there promises
to be quite an interesting ending.
“To Catch A Thief” offers the
best of Alfred Hitchcock, and that’s
the best there is.—Adv.
