Central Avenue Phone 875-3550 Hoke Highlights by Donna Holland Some weeks ago the Board of Education did a very painful thing to the students of Hoke County. They feh the techers needed a rest. Therefore, despite numerous com plaints, they demanded that stu dents take a Summer vacation. Because children and teenagers always try to be as agreeable as possible, everyone decided to grin and bear it. After checking with some Hoke High students, I discovered that many of them had found a variety of activities available to fill in some of the hours they could not be in school. In fact many of them were busy at school. A Band camp was held the week of July 23rd. Mr. Jimmy James and 85 Band members sent from morn ing until night preparing for the 1979 Marching Season. They have also had many practices at night. Rainy weather has slowed them down, but the show is almost ready and everyone has a treat in store. The girl's tennis team has been practicing for the past few weeks. With the good practice sessions they have been having under the supervision of their coach, Mrs. Cheryl Farmer, I am sure we can look forward to hearing some outstanding things about them this season. Members of the Music Booster's Club have not been idle during the Summer. A Gas Rafle was held on August 31st. The winners are being announced in The News-Journal. Club members would like to thank everyone who helped to make this money making project a big suc cess. Football, as usual, is a very popular sport this year. The players nave been practicing faithfully, despite the hot weather. Go out and support the hardworking Bucks and their hardworking coaches! David Locklear, the coach of the girl's golf team, has been busy working with the girls each after i noon to prepare them for their !? upcoming matches. We wish them the best of luck this season. A new face will be seen at Hoke High this year. Dr. Lenwood Simpson is our new principal. We will miss Mr. Oxendine, but look forward to getting to know Dr. Simpson and hope he will enjoy being here with us. We have a very good Athletic program in the Hoke County Schools. One group that plays a big Eart in making this possible is the loke County Booster's Club. They are having their annual member ship drive at this time. They need your help. Be a booster! It is very evident Summer does not mean that the activities at Hoke High come to a standstill. The biggest problem for the students now will be to try to squeeze in a little studying every now and then. It won't be easy, but somehow they will manage to do it. We hope all the teachers enjoyed their vacation. Again this year, I will be writing the Hoke Highlights every week. The people of Hoke County are very interested in what we are doing, so be sure to keep me informed about the activities of your club and organizations. The Hoke County Chapter of the Health Occupations Students of America and the Future Business Leaders of America started off with a bang by sponsoring the first dance of the school year. It was held on Friday night after the game against South View High School. Everyone enjoyed the dance and being together to celebrate the Buck's first victory of this season. This year the annual staff has a new advisor, Mrs. Susan Houston. Mrs. Wanda Ingram has been the advisor for the past several years and all of the members hated to see her leave, but they agreed that Mrs. Houston will be a good replace ment. The annual staff would also like to announce that the 1979-80 EKOH will be on sale the week of September 10th through 14th. Seniors only, may purchase an nuals with the name engraved on the cover for S13.00. The price for all underclassmen will be $12.00.
