At Warren County High Backwards Prom Held By LISA WILSON Warren County High held its first annual "Morp" Friday night. The "Morp" was a backwards prom sponsored by the Future Homemakers of America. Instead of wearing their Sunday best, students wore their Friday worst. Girls asked guys to be their dates, and couples ate at Hardee's rather than at steakhouses. Unprofessional photographs were taken. The event was not restricted to juniors and seniors as the prom traditionally is. Freshmen and sophomores were welcome to attend, too. The dance was a big success and students iook forward to next year's "Morp" with anticipation. Wednesday marks the end of the first trimester at WCHS. Thursday and Friday are teacher workdays and students will have a holiday. Exams will be Tuesday and Wednesday, with first and third period tests Tuesday and second and fourth period tests Wednesday. Second 'tri" will begin Monday, Nov. 25. Ms. Pattie Bugg, a new vocational guidance counselor, has founded a Students Against Drunk Drivers chapter at WCHS. "SADD" encourages students not only to dissuade friends from driving while intoxicated, but also refrain from driving drunk themselves. Responsible representatives from each homeroom will compose the group. A representative from the School of Textiles at North Carolina State University visited the campus Thursday. He talked with seniors who are currently enrolled in chemistry or physics courses and discussed career opportunities in the textile field and N. C. State University as a college choice. The suggestions he offered were both informative and helpful. Coach James Howell's varsity boys basketball team will open their season Tuesday night with a scrimmage game against Northampton West. Fri day night, they will scrimmage Bunn. The regular season begins Monday, Nov. 25, against Louisburg. All three games will be at home. Everyone is en couraged to come out and support the Eagles.

Appointments have been set up by the advisors. Parents, please keep your appointments! The Blue Waves are very proud of the new celebrity in our midst. Our secretary, Mrs. Anne Mulchi, appeared on "P. M. Magazine" last week and showed off an unusual talent. Mrs. Mulchi plays the cigar box! On the program she delighted her audience as she played along with a Willie Nelson tune. Her television debut brought a sense of pride to Norlina's students and faculty. Thank you, Mrs. Mulchi. It's almost basketball time again, and the Blue Waves are preparing for the season. Coaches Wil liam Shulenburgc* and William Fuller have set try outs for the week of Dec. 2.

Recently, students from Ms. Priscilla Shepard's eighth grade social studies class dressed as figures from North Carolina's history. The students por trayed such persons as Queen Elizabeth, Sir Fran cis Drake, John Cabot, Manteo and many others. As a part of the project, they were interviewed by Mr. W. T. Ramey, III, the principal, and asked to ex plain the role of their characters in North Carolina's history. The students gained many insights into historical events of the past through this project. John Graham Middle School closed out the foot ball schedule with a win over Gaston Middle School from Northampton County. This is the first year in several that the Yellow Jackets have enjoyed a winning season. They ended their season with a 25-8 victory over Gaston, giving them four wins and three losses for the season.

Still, Coach Coleman pu* together a solid team. With a little luck, Warren County game close to finishing B-2, which would have put them in the playoffs. Four of their six losses came from margins of six points or less.
