Spring Sports Outlook Pages 4 & 5 mil I Iff Spring Break April 16-20 Computer To Ease Fall Scheduling There is a good possibility that rising seniors, juniors and sophomores will not have to stand in those long lines to register for coimses next fall. The four city senior high schools most likely will be computer registered. That means students and teachers will not have to go through the registration hassle of previous years. Dudley Senior High assis tant principal and Chairman of the Task Force for Compu ter Registration, Mr. Fran Nolan, told HIGH LIFE re porters that Dudley was participating in a bogus run of the registration proce dures. All the students at Dudley were given a compu ter form and were asked to fill it in as if they were selecting their next semes ter’s com-ses. Mr. Nolan is now in the process of making a master schedule by run ning forms through the com puter. “The computer is large and sopnisticated and has many more capabilities than the computer used by the city schools now,” commen ted Mr. Nolan. It is called the Guilford County Data Processing Computer and is located at the court house.
