f I'Tl’TTT I TEEN AGE ! TATTLER «• ;: (By Cynthia §oh nson a . » > • » t-t.J-t.J.A.t f » t.Jti Farewells seemed to be the word of the day this past week-end, cause with the coming of September colleges get underway, and those who plan to attend them must bid their loved ones fond adieu and most of the fellas. Hooper Johnson, Jay Carter, Cash Register, Stanley start on their way. Wake Forest seems to be the college chosen by Williamson, Tommy Head, Bobby Russ, and Robert Bell will establish their headquarters there for the coming school year. Hooper left In the convertible that is seen quite frequently around town, so he’ll be coming home on the week-ends he can make it, and needless to say. there’ll be plenty of people who want a ride. I’m not certain just whe* they leave, but Shirley Brown has chosen GC for her school of learn ing, and Corrine Wilkerson a school in Chattanooga, Tenn. Kathryn Kc-ster, Pat Hardwick, and Permelia Wheatley will attend WC. Betty Hanson journeys north to enroll as a member of the student bo<iy in Skidmoor in Saratoga while Anna Kamer and Sara Williams plan to enter Salem. Helen Rosenmann leaves this Thursday for Duke, and tEmrna Kingoff leaves in the near future for Smith. : NHHS got underway this past Friday, and when Monday mom jug comes, the students will feel like old-timers at the game of go ing back to school again. Saw Winifred Harriss during the change of classes Friday, and she looked mighty happy. In spite of what we ail say, it's nice to be back ?t school witn all the old gang and with all the lessons. Sara’K. Jordan, student body presi dent. said that so far no social events had been planned, but the first student gathering will be in the form of the very first foot ball game of the season to be held in Kinston on the 13th. I remem ber how we used to put up the money for the gas, and drive to most of the out-of-town games, ho come on, students, support your team and they’ll win because you’re there and they know you’re pulling for them. ' Miss Jane Head left this week end to attend the summer formais at The Citadel as the guest of Jimmy Wells. She was accompa nied by Miss Ann Adams who was the guest of Jimmy's roommate. The rain this past Friday brought' out some of the craziest protective get-ups I’ve seen in a long time. Of course it was a dire necessity that I have some new records, so in the downoour of that afternoon, I donned my brother’s navy raincoat, my father’s State Guard fatigue hat, and my own shoes. I had hardly waded across Front street before I encountered Cash Register, clad in a raincoat but with no hat. In spite of the fact that water was streaming from his black hair, he was smil ing as' always. Just behind him, equally damp, were Jack Bass and Ed Lamb. When I finally reached the music store. I came face to face with Jay Carter and Alton Hall. Jay also wore a fatigue hat, and the way the tremendous brim stuck out on all sides was really a sight to see. I made my pur chase and swam back to car, none the worse for exposure, and the proud possessor of some new records. Buddy Johnson and his orches tra on Friday night were really suoef! One of their best arrange ments is that of “Whispering” and for that they are indebted to Dwrin Everheart who plays sax. iThe trumpet section is filled by Walter Barnes and Tommy Head •with Tom Woodson on the trom bone. Other sax men are Joe Wil liams, ahd- Stanley Williamson. Of course the drums are given their work-out by one of the best little di-jmmers ever, Bobby Russ. Don Cones is master of the keyboard, while vocal honors go to Jean Haven. The orchestra plays with that certain professional touch, and it’s just a shame that most of the fellas are going off lo school • and will have to disband the or ganization. But watch for them the first of the summer! Dean Hudson played to a jump happy crowd this past Saturday night at Lumina, but there were also some people there who liked mood music, so he sAisfied them, too. the senior class will be well known this year for such beauties as Diane Costello, Patty Souther land, Flora T. Mclver, Betty Wal ters, Edna Mathes, and Mary Claire Bates. But the freshmen have their glamour girls, too, and in this class would come Peggy Epperson, a newcomer to public schools. Peggy has attended the Catholic school in the past, but will add much to NHHS by be GRAY HAIR NEWS No More Dyeing? Science’s startling new Vitamins for re storing natural color to gray hair can now be had as Nix Vitamins. No more dangerous hair dyeing or tiresome rinses. Nothing artificial. These Vita mins as described by national magazine supply harmless antl-gray hair Vitamin substance to your system. Simply take l a day until graying stops and hair color returns thru roots. Age 22 up. Don’t look old before your time. Get Nix Vitamin tablets today. Don’t wait. No Mail Orders Accepted! i * coming a member of its student body. Saw some ROTC cadets with their uniforms the other Jay, but I haven’t heard who the Lt. Col. will be as yet. Congratulations to Joe Gray wl:o now holds the rating of H.A. 2-c. He is still in school at Bainbridge. but will soon move to Betnesda, Md., where he expects to bo sta tioner permanently. Listened in on the Teen-age Merry-Go-Round this past Satur day morning and sho’ was im pressed by the talent displayed. Frank Bradley enacted a drama which was one of the best 1 have ever heard a young person give. Larry Dagenheart was on hand to sing “Slowly,” and the girl whp is rapidly climbing the ladder of success in the music world, Mary Claire Bates, chose “There’s No One But You.” In an informal in terview with Winifred Harriss Ben McDonald discovered that the stu dent body enrollment for this year is between 1,900 and 2,000, the largest in the history of the school. Remember this is your program, teen-agers, so if you have some talent that you are capable of dis playing over the radio, get in touch with Mr. McDonald. Well, that’s about all there is for now. I’ll find out more about what’s doing and see you the mid dle of the week. And this time my so long is for you, my readers, and especially for the people who will leave this week to enter col lege—So long. * * * Debutantes Of '46 To Be Entertained (Continued From Page One) state who are making their debuts have been selected as assistant leaders of the Ball.
