Eighth Grade Presents
March of Dimes Talent
By MARY ELLEN CHASTEEN
Whoopee, and here we come!
Yes, folks, it's that time when we
give out with all the news and I
doings of good old SHS. This time
we flew in on an airplane? some
thing different, huh? Now, get
ready and set. Off we go into the
wild blue yonder full of news ,
about SHS!
The first thing we have to tell :
about is the chapel program Mr
Corbett Davis's eighth grade pre- j
tented in t n e
auditorium last
Friday morn
ing. The setting
of the program
wns a radio and
TV program for
the March of
Dimes.
Making the
introduction o f
the March of
Dimes was
Diane Willis.
Mary Ellen
The announcers for the "Rock n
Roll March of Dimes" were Drex
ell Bryant and Brenda Golden. I
They announced the various talent. ;
The first talent for the March
of Dimes was a piano duet, Heart
and Soul, by Carolyn Phelps and
Phillip Lynch. Next was Autumn
Leaves with Lynell Taylor at the
piano and Carolyn Phelps, Gloria
Davis, Lydia Arthur, and Barbara
Hill doing some very fine vocaliz
ing.
One of the greatest items on the
program was an excellent imper
sonation of the one and only Elvis
Presley! Heber Golden did this
impersonation by singing Love Me
Tender and Hound Dog. Believe j
me, if you haven't seen this boy
do these impersonations you have
missed something! He is exactly ,
like Elvis ? even to some real side- J
bums! Golly, but he is the most. I
By the way, Elton Willis accom-l
panied Heber by playing a guitar.
The next impersonation came
when Phillip Lynch 'played Chop
Sticks Waltz at the piano. This!
impersonation was of Liberace and
it was hilariously completed when
Phillip walked to the center of
the stage holding a candelabra
and said in Liberace's own soft
voice, "I hope my brother George
enjoyed that."
Eight of the girls danced to two
records, one by Elvis and the
other by Pat Boone. It was all
very good and I'm sure that every- 1
one enjoyed the whole program
as much as I did. Oh yes, the
theme record for the program was
Tab Hunter's Young Love.
Wednesday of last week grades
5 through 12 saw a very good mo
vie about posture. Dr. Barnum
and Dr. Lewis were present at
this movie and after the movie,
they explained many facts to us
about how important good pos
tare really is. They showed us
some very interesting X-rays and
then told us about the contest far
choosing a posture King and
Queen.
Just listen to this! The Posture
King and Queen of North Carolina
will receive a $500 scholarship to
the college or university of their
own choosing. Come on, everybody,
let's work toward good posture
You all know that this contest is
confined to seniors in high school,
but for you who are not seniors
this will give you a chance to
start toward something so that
when you do become seniors you
will have perfect posture j*nd may
become the king or queen of your
school, county, or state.
Thursday the FT A met in the
library. The meeting was called
to order by the president, Ann
Davis. This meeting was held for
purpose of discussing the County
FTA meeting which is to be held
Feb. 20 in our school. We alsoj
discussed various plans for rais
ing money.
Three cheers and a hand of ap
plause for some mighty ambitious
seniors! Folks, you know that the
past week has been March of
Dimes week in our county, and
that all the goodness and sym
I pathy you have in your heart
should be shared by contributions
to this worthy cause.
Two of our seniors. Janet Willis
and Blanche Wolfe, did a mighty
big part on behalf of the senior
class. They baked a very beauti
ful cake and sold chances on it,
at 10 cents a chance. The ingre
dients of the cake were donated
by members of the senior class,
so everything that was made from
the chances on the cake was for
the March of Dimes.
They made almost $5 In case
you are wondering, Dorothy Chad
wick won the cake.
Last Thursday night members
of the annual staff met with Mrs.
Willis in her home to check the
annual. 1 wasn't present at the
meeting, but those who were said
they enjoyed thefnielve# very
much and wish to thank Mrs. Wil
lis (or suck a pleasant evening
The dummy of the annual was
checked and although it iia't com
pleted tike re isn't much that needs
to be done.
The croup pictures arrived Mon
day and everyone was very pleased
with them. So, pupils of 8HS, it
won't be long now before you'll
have your copy of the "Whisper
ing Pines."
