Junior-Senior
Prom Held
The auditorium o£ Lincoln
High School became a veritable
flower garden with the quaint
white picket fence and the vine-
covered arched gate ways, the
center of interest. Dogwoods and
spring shrubs made the spring
garden setting more picturesque.
Amid this lovely setting was
beautiful lawn furniture.
The dazzling chandelier and
brilliant spotlights added the
color to the occasion.
Through the quaint gateways
stepped the beautiful girls in
lovely gowns of pastel shades
of net, organdy, organza, mar
quisette, lace, chiffon and satin,
escorted by handsomely dressed
young men.
Music for the occasion was
played by the Rythm Kids of
Greensboro. The students pre
sented a beautiful picture as
they danced throughout the
evening.
The highlight of the evening
was the intermission program.
The Grand March of Juniors
and Seniors with their guest was
the first in order of events. The
welcome was given by the Jun
ior Class president, Samuel At
water; the response was given
by the Senior Class president,
Seabrew Ford. The Junior Class
song composed by Alice Page
was followed by the Senior
Class song.
The color scheme for refresh
ments carried out the class colors
—green and white. Refreshments
were individual cakes decorated
with white roses, the class
flower. Lime and orange frappe,
green and white mints and pea
nuts comnleted the menu.
Souvenirs for' the evening
were rose pencils, balloons, and
monogramed matches.
Decorations were done by Mc
Collum of Durham. Lawn furni
ture was loaned by two furni
ture stores of the city: Johnson-
Strowd-Ward, Inc., and Ogburn
Furniture Co.

Our Bank
The members of the 3B and 4A
closed the doors of their bank
May 7, after drawing out twelve
dollars and fifty-seven cents. The
president of the bank was Wil
liam Curtis Perry who had saved
$7.00 since January 2, 1950.
The vice-president was Clyde
Burnett who had saved $4.20.
Other members saved from 5
cents up to the highest amount

to deny ourselves things we could
do without in order to save for
a rainy day.

Class Poem
Lincoln High, dear Lincoln High,
It comes the time we must say
goodbye.
Now close the year, another
world outside.
Casting our minds on what
abides.
Out in this tough and struggling
world.
Life we’ll face with pride and
joy.
Never to forget you taught us
thus.
Hold High the greatest thought
portrayed,
Inside our schoolroom walls;
Great countries by great people
made.
Heed no defeatist call.
Start well your job and keep it so
Great, and build, and live
Have all your friends your coun
try know
Only fools can take, not give.
Over all remember, and ever
show
ijirc-a ricc ctr-ciiose Wliu live.
Written by Rubye Atwater
enjoyed were hop-scotch, run
ning and racing. Our refresh

and mustard, drinks and candy.
We had a nice time and wish for
another picnic soon.
