STUDENT COUNCIL
PROPOSES CLEANING
PROJECT
Being Student Council members,
we in our last meeting discussed
several proposals for improving
the cleanliness of our school by
presented by our president and ap-
that has the best cleaning habits
of all the classes. The idea was
presened by our president, and ap
proved by the members of the
council as a very good project.
The idea is a good one and should
, not be applied for winning a ci
tation award but for keeping our
school clean at ail times.
The next time you finish that
candy wrapper, think about this,
and drop it in the nearest trash
can.

DEBUTANTE i>UEEN AND ATTENDANTS
* SEMESTER EXAMS
i V” Jrlm Lewis
Well the Semester Exams have
gone and I think the students are
saying now “I could have done
better” or I did better than I
thought.” The students should
have a feeling of accomplish
ments for doing something well.
Before the test the student
should have gone back to their
old test papers and notes for re
view. After that they should
have asked their teachers for
further facts .If they did this
well, there should have been no
trouble. Semester Exams are
tough, but if you study and put
your mind to it, they can prove
to be very easy. So keep studying
Barber’s Students, it can help in
the long run! The Exams are be
hind but there is another semes
ter ahead.

DEBUTANTE BALL

Miss Gloria Maxine Swain was
crowned “Queen of the 1968 Deb
utante Ball” at the 14th annual
Debutante Ball presented by the
members of Theta Omega Chap
ter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Soror

ladies were presented to society
in the elaborately decorated Ced

ior girls represented many cities
in eastern North Carolina includ
ing New Bern, Bayboro, William-
ston, Robersonville, Jamesville,
Windsor, Dover and Cove City.
After the crowning of the
queen, the debs and their escorts
performed a cotillion for the
queen to the music of “Born
Free,” “Strangers in the Night”
and “Girl Watchers Theme.” One
of the most memorable highlights
of the ball was the waltz danced
by the dabs and their Marshals.
One of the debs, Mary Becton
was honored to have our princi
pal, Mr. G. C. Fields as her mar
shal.
Each girl was presented a
beautiful sterling silver Debu
tante pin in addition to various
prizes. Everyone had a lovely
time dancing to the music of the
ever-popular “Brown Baggers.”
