The B-Hfoe By Betty Lou Jacobs Well, Folks, there are only 13 more days of school this year! In- spite of the cold' weather, Thursday afternoon saw the eight grade enjoying a picnic at Hold en Beach. It seems as though the students tried to out do old man cold weather by going in summing anyway. From the way they talked it was pretty cold coming back on the' truck, but everyone did have a good time. The freshman class was honored ] at a party given by their grade father, Mr. A.' D. Willetts, onj Friday night of last week. Say, Juniors, what was all that fuss we were hearing from your class Thursday afternoon ? From what we can make out they were planning a beach party and they couldn't quite make up their minds about the beach they want ed to visit. A3 usUal the class was divided into two groups. The girls wanted to go to one beach ahd the boys wanted to go to an other. But nothing has been made definite yet, so we'll let you khow more next week about it. Say, you Seniors of Bolivia high school, we didn't know you could do it. We're talking about the fine job you did on your class play at our school and also at Waccamaw and Sdiithport. It was really worth seeing. Congratula tions. Don't faint, but Louise Gray and Currie Shaw have a great scare for you these days. It any of you readers would like to see a sight just go to the science room of Bolivia high school and I have a look. There you will find ; Louise's and Currle's face hang ing: on the wall.

The Bolivia Bears have been very busy for about two weks playing baseball. They defeated the Shallotte Pirates by a score of 15 to 5. The Bolivia boys showed the fans some very good playing. Shallotte was good, too, but Bolivia -out-played them. Their next game was with Southport at the port city dia mond. This time they were up against competion and on the short end by a score of 17 to 8. The Bears tangled last with Shallotte and were against a tighter team than before. The Bears won by a small margin of 12 to 11. The Bears had a very god lead but errors broke their defense and Shallotte took the break. Bolivia team has two or three more games to play this season. The next is scheduled for May 19 at home. Come on out and give them your support. Contractor Sees More New Homes Raymond Bellamy Say?
