Southport Youngsters—
Praises Work Of
Youthful Artists
By EUGENE FALUON
Carefully-tabulated statistics
prove that the United States is
becoming culture-conscious with a
vengeance. More Americans write
verse; more dabble iit brush and
oils; more mold clays and mar
bles than ever before in our his
tory. About the only art in which
we seem to be slipping, is music
composition. Swing and bop and
jazz have made us nervous, de
pressed and haggard. Johnny No
talent swings his hips, grimaces
and groans, * while music flees
wildly. The mermaids are replaced
with the Mermans. Lorelei is now
gravel-voiced Brenda Lee, and the
siren sings on the Rhine, to; no
avail.
To prove that Southport is forg
ing ahead in a quest for culture,
the Southport Art Association, in
company of Southport High
School, recently instituted an art
contest open to students of this
area only, and of high school
age. The winning exhibits to come
out of that city-wide contest hang
in the admirable Southport Pub
lic Library in such illustrious
company as William Shakespeare,
Thackery, Thoreau, Whitman and
Kenneth Greene. Follows a brief
commentary on that work:
A special award was given John
Martin Lewis and Jon Arthur
Newton for a two-section mural
worthy of a young Michelangelo.
In this canvas, which bears no
title, the entire Southport water
front comes alive, and one can
actually see the fishing craft rise
on the harbor sweels, while the
gulls hover hungrily overhead. The
tl. S. Coast Guard boat more
alive and personal than the red
marker bnoys, with its cutter
engines idling, purrs as patern
ally as any fond parent ever a
beloved child.
In the color graphics division,
Bandy Donnel, 10-year-old daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry S.
Donnell, took second-prize with
poose (two) in a forest. Sandy’s
ferns are fine, but her trees (or
maybe her moose) are a bit out
bf perspective, with the great
animals somewhat dwarfing the
(great) trees.
The Christmas story centers the
third-prize offering, called “Beth
lehem”, drawn by Landis Brown.
The minarets and turreted mos
jues, the palm trees and the
subdued houses of the faithful,
lie here revealed cold and sterile
|nder that stronge' starburst
jvhich heralded the Birth of the
fahild.
Ruth Hohrein’s “Wonderful
Place” exerts a powerful pull with
ts pure simplicities. Her ocean
s always an ocean; the lone boat
n the harbor struggles valiantly,
the single tree in the drawing not
inly shades a real and substantial
lome, but reflects an unconseious
y European influence in its
ilanes. The tree might well be the
rery first Cedar of Lebanon. Ruth

a grandmother.
Perhaps the most magnetic of
fering in black and white graphics
is Clare Margaret Glore's first
prize winning exhibit called “Holy
Madonna”. The young artist
(Clare is a fourth-grade elemen
tary student here) shows an
amazing depth in this creation.
The motif is a sombre one with
dark gray predominating. It is
as if the picture shouts: ‘This is
the Madonna after the Sorrows,
and when her Son had been mur
dered.’ The robe of true melan
cholia, the Mother stands on a
rock pile, looking away. The fig
ure is tranlucent, and gives the
impression of shuddering or trem
bling. This critic prophesizes a
great artistic career for young
Miss Glore.
Patti Key, 11-year-old daughter
of Mrs. Fiances Key, flaunts an
extremely fine touch—almost of
delicacy—in het first-prize-win
ning watercolor* The work is un
titled, and might be called ‘Sylvan
Fields’ or ‘Splendid Summer’.
Patti’s grasses are lush under the
trees; daffodils intrude along the
inner borders of the painting. A
partial rail fence looms in the
foreground, and the sky is prop
erly azure. An off-color white for
background adds a touch of my
stery, almost of sadness. And it is
as if, lurking behind the summer, j
one senses the little, white death
of Winter.

High Times
By JOAN FINER
Hi! Here we are again ready
to give you the latest news from
Southport High School.
This past week was a busy one
for the Dolphins. We had two
basketball double-headers on Fri
day and Saturday night. Both
teams came out on top! We have
a game here this Friday night
with Nakina.
Mrs. Davis had a little girl Sun
day night and Mr. Davis is cer
tainly walking on air these past
two days.
The school newspaper came out
for the second time this year on
Wednesday, November 22. It was
better than the first one. The
news Staff works very hard for it
to be a number one school news
paper and they do a good job of
it. The paper hasn’t been named
as yet. There are now three
names to choose from. They are:
Dolphineer, The Choosy Newsy
and the Doffy.
The glee club is working hard
this month. They will have their
first public concert on December
17.
3:00-3:30 p. m.
Edgar Holden’s House, 3:45
4:15 p. m.
Our roving reporter’s question
this week was:
“How strict do you think law
enforcement of traffic laws should
be?”
Lydia Long—“They should be
as strict as possible, and be sure
that they carry out the laws.”
William Spencer—“Very strict.
Because if they are not enforced
they aren't any good.”
Robert Potter—“X think they’re
strict enough now.”
Mrs. Barnes—“If the laws are
worth having, they should be
worth enforcing.”
The seniors have been working
hard on their annual, the 1962
Dolphin. We are impatient as
they are to see the product of
their handiwork. We hear that the
1962 Dolphin is to be the "biggest
and best ever.” Speaking of im
patience, the juniors are very
anxious to receive their class
rings.

WORRY
By DR. ROGER W. PRICE
Worry is a predominant emotion today. People
worry about death, loneliness, poverty, war,
inflation, disease, etc. Disease is one worry
that you can help dissipate. It has been said
that when once the cause of disease is known
you are half way to the cure.
Patients suffering from complete collapse from
worry and nerves find Modern Chiropractic ex
amination and treatment is their return battle to health. Following the pa
tient’s first treatment he finds a change taking place in his body. The ten
sion in his previous system began to relax, his peace of mind is restored
and he begins to gain strength daily.
The Modern Chiropractor finds that many patients are worried and nervous
mainly because they have been unable to find anyone who can locate the
cause of their sickness.
See your Modern Chiropractor — the doctor who has specialized in the
study of the spine, nerves and muscle;. — for relief of worry and nerves.
