We would like t< take this opportunity to thanl those who have made it possible for us to have music at Owen High school. Mr. Shuford was the speaker at Assembly on Friday. He stressed the importance of punctuality and regular attendance. Kach of us has acquired either a good or a bad record. This record follows us into our adult life, college or busi ness. A committee met with represen tatives from engraving companies to decide on invitations for grad uation. The committee consisted of the following seniors: Ann Whitaker, Nancy Jones, Grace Simons, Johnny Fox, Nancy Jo Thompson, Dottie Burnette, Linda Martin, and Martha Mahaffey. There was some question as to whether classes would elect new class officers (having just one complete set) or whether the two sets of old officers from each class would serve. Since we are one school and there is unity in every thing else, the senior class voted to elect just one set of officers. The following students were elected: president, Austin Cooley: vice-president, Stanley Gregory; secretary, Nancy Jo Thompson, and treasurer, Kenneth Elliott. Next week the other class of ficers will be named. Among our visitors this week Nancy Owen, Mrs. T. C. Roberson, were Mrs. C. D. Owen. Jr., Miss R. A. Tomberlin, Mrs. Max Wood cock, Hal Weir, Dr. Thomas Rey nolds, Dr. Cartwright of Duke Un iversity, Mrs. A. F. Tyson, Jr., Mrs. John Conant, Mrs. McMahan, Mrs. Roy Alexander, Mrs. B. G. Byron, Mrs. James Crawford, Mrs. Otty Leemon, Mrs. Parm, Miss Peggy Klylis, and Mrs. S. S. Cool ey. Until next week this is the news!
