Youth Council Proposed On Wednesday, January 15, a proposal was given to the State General Assembly to create a state board for the Youth Council of North Carolina. Senior Class Project The reason the bill is being presented is to unite all the pres ent Youth Councils in North Caro lina and create them as an official part of the state government with an advisory board and state rep- re.sentatives from each council. The ultimate goal of a state council would be to create a coun cil in each county—hopeful of one hundred councils. The present six youth councils On December 23, the Senior iss of Grimsley High School onsored a Christmas project for B children of Smith Homes, a using development on Florida renue. Months of preparation and ef- rt were contributed in this at- mpt by the Senior Class to ighten the holiday for those IS fortunate. The Senior Class ted in November to alter the nior Christmas project from the iditional play to a party for children in downtown Greens- ro, but because of the interest d enthusiasm expressed the oject was later expanded to the ’^e hundred Children at Smith )mes. The chairman of the project IS Jane Garvey who headed a •ge committee of Grimsley Sen 's. Among the most active com- :ttee members were co-chairmen isan Gibson, Mark Morris, and )Ug Harris. Other active workers duded Kathy Shields, Eddie oton, Larry Payne, Jana Moore, irol Johns, Steve Gennaro, and lulette Flanary. The entire Sen- - Class was involved in the oject through the contribution candies, cookies, and decora- (ns through the Senior home- oms. The exact nature and location the party was worked out with the aid of Rev. Ray Moss of the Inner-City Ministry and the Greensboro Housing Commission. The faculty advisor for the party was Mrs. Richardson. Miss Lynne Hundley and Miss Sarah Lovett were the faculty members who attended the party. About twenty Grimsley Seniors attended the party which was held between 6:00 and 7:00 p.m. on December 23. The Grimsley string quartet provided the music for the singing of Christmas carols which was led by Jana Moore. The chil- dred enjoyed the carols a great deal, but the real excitement started when Santa Claus (Steve LeFever of High Point) arrived. During the carols and Santa Claus’ visit the children were given cookies contributed by mem bers of the Senior Class, and of the one hundred dozens which were contributed not a crumb re mained. Just before the party ended the toys and ice cream which the tenant’s Council had purchased for the children were distributed along with the bags of candy and gum which the Senior Class pro vided. From beginning to end chaos reigned, but it was happy chaos, and Christmas was much happier for five hundred little disad vantaged children because of a group of young people who cared. number 9 Auditions for the North Caro lina School of the Arts: Junior High, Senior High, and College Students.

New Honor Code Discussed, Special Meeting On January 9th, the Honor Code Committee held a meeting after school to discuss changes in the existing code or a imssible new code. Bill Buckley, chairman of the committee, said the student coun cil had decided to take action after reading students’ comments from the Suggestion Box and discussing it among themselves. So a committee was selected to look into the Honor Code. The other members are: Kathy Glenn, Cem Brown, Joe Carruthers, Suz anne Williams, and Mike Frier son. The main plans for the commit tee are to try to change or set up a new code. If a new code is written, it will have to be ap proved by a 2/3 majority of the student body. The committee hopes if there is a new code, it will be a sort of personal state ment, so the student will be able to identify his own personal goals within the code. A new code would try to chal lenge a student to apply the code as part of his own individual life and then as a part of the student body. The committee wants the individual to “establish obliga tions from the code toward both persons.” The main objective of the com mittee for a new code is to write a realistic honor code. They want the code to be attainable for stu dents. By meetings such as the one held, the committee hopes to re ceive suggestions for the new code. Each member of the com mittee is to write his own ver sion of a code in hopes that the committee will receive different ideas for a code. Anyone inteirested in the changes of the code or a new code should turn in any sugges tions he might have so as to help the betterment of the school.
