This week, things have i eally been popping around WTHS. lII the cheer of the Christmas sea- J on is almost here. Did you hear White Christmas" on the radio tie other night? Did everyone en jy the basketball game, and did ou all have fun at Brenda Brend 1 l's party ? A lot of the boys are home from ie service and Christmas is really 1 the air. One of our real old-timers came back to Waynesville last week. Cyril Minnett. He is now a 2nd Lieutenant in the Air Force. Cyril graduated from WTHS sev en years ago, then attended UNC. Some time after graduation from the university, he Joined the Air Force and attended air cadet school. He is now a jet instructor, and we're all proud of him! When you see and hear the next Sabre Jet go over, it just might be Cyril! Tuesday morning in assembly, I Jaynes presented school sweat ers to the graduating members of the Monogram Club. Those receiving sweaters were: Tommy Nichols, Joe Aldridge. Troy Muse, Joe Carpenter, Jim mie Harris, Johnny Edwards, . 1 Charles Howell. Johnny Mac For- i | guson, Paul Hightower, Dwain ; Robinson, Doc Roberson. It has been said about our ! Younget Set, that we are "hot : I one day and cold the next." At times thai *s very true. One of the j times we're speaking of is on the ; subject of our "Canteen." Rerhem- j ber about a month or six weeks : ago, we asked the support of the ' adults in town, to help us w4th the 1 oroject. The Mountaineer gave us j a boost on the editorial page J (Thank you so much.) Then we were cold again. Not another thing ! has been said about the Canteen i here at school since. We agree ' that now, in this Christmas sea i son is no^time to try to begin a | Canteen, but next year, after the holidays and everything is down to normal again, how about, let's all. young and old alike, put our heads together and see what we can do. How about it? The Ta!'y-lio Club had a gala j affair last Saturday night at the Towne House. To get the party off | to a right start, we all sang Christ mas carols and songs. The pro i grams we received were made by i 1 a few seniors with the help of | Mrs. Williams, our faculty advis-! | or. ' Next on the program came the j story, "Yes, There is a Santa i Claus" hy Patsy Leatherwood. i i followed by Louise Green's read- i ing of the well-known "T'was the Night Before Christmas". Amelia Alexander and Tootie McDaniel sang "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town" and sure enough old Santa i did come! Would you like to know who played Santa? Okay, it was none other than Bill Crawford, Santa ! didn't get to s^av but a little while ! I for he had to get back to the North Pole and get Mrs. Santa ! Claus to fix him up a new suit before Christmas Eve. He lost half of his at the party! This was the surprise for everyone and af terwards Mrs. Williams awarded THC pins to the deesrving seniors. On each card she had a line writ I ten about each person. Bob Conway took our pictures and I think he enjoyed himself as much as we did. We want to thank Mrs. Jones, who owns the Towne House, for letting us have our party there and for the delicious refreshments. This is the end of a swell party! Last Friday night the Waynes ville Mountaineers beat Crabtree Iron Duff school in basketball. This was the fourth game of the season, and Tuesday night our teams beat the Clyde Cardinals, who played in our gym. This is just a last-minute re minder for everyone to come to the band's Christmas concert to night. The tickets are on sale by the students of the concert band and chorus at 25 cents for stu dents and 50 centg for adults. At the" door the prices are 35 cents and 75 cents, so let's get them at advance. The concert will start at 8:15. The chorus of Waynesvillc High gave a Christmas program at the First Methodist Church Sunday night. Linda Boone la the accom panist for the chorus. The choirs of the First Baptist Church Will prewnt its annual Christmas pro gram at the First Baptist Church Sunday night. The Safety Club met Monday morning for its weekly meeting and the President, Jimmy Rowland gave each member a little booklet on Safety Education. In the book there were articles on walking safely to and from school, on school buses, iu the school build ing and on tho playgrounds, pedes trian and drivers, twfcieh ia ike cause of most.accidents these days*, '?7f* i'fPWft bicycle safety, home accidents and many others.. Wednesday, us every one knows, was set aside as "Safe ty Day". We hope that there were no loss of lives in North Carolina and everyone took it to heart to be safe not only on that day but everyday! This song is familiar with every one at WTHS nowadays, "Hark, the herald angels shout, one more day and we'll be out!" Well, it's true, isn't it? Just one more day and then two whole weeks to sleep late, sleigh ride (we hope!), and just lay around. We hope to see our college friends at all the dances, parties, etc. The first dance will be this Saturday night at the armory. The dance t will start at 9 and last until 1. It is sponsored by the Beta Sigma Phi and Bobby Allen and his or chestra will be featured. We hope everyone has a wonderful two! weeks vacation. Have fun hut he' good!
