It seems as if Baxter’s is the favorite recreational spot of after
schooler^afleast for the boys! (Why don’t they have some place

study are over. This class includes Gretter Duffy, Betty Ann

made most of the seniors visit the
library and spend much of their
afternoons pouring over reference
books. I happened to see Sara Wil
liams and Betty Hanson — doing
some tall investigating the other
day. But when I walked up to
them I saw that they weren’t
studying Shakespeare, but they
were looking at some of the latest
hits that Shirley Brown had
bought—I mean records. Oh, well.
I know they both do study cause
they always make the honor roll.
And speaking of making the
honor roll, Friday was many peo
ples Waterloo. Yes, report cards
came out on this day, and after
looking at the grades many plans
for the week-end such as going to
the Teen Age dance or the late
show were cancelled rapidly. I
just don’t see why the teachers
can’t give out reports during the
week. It sho’ is dismal to have
to stay in the whole week-end.
Wish I could have gone to the
horror late show this past Satur
day night. I did go by there and
saw lots of NHHS horror-loves
standing in line with hopes of get
ting in. Mac Ayres came rushing
out looking for Eugene Mauney,
but I don’t tfcijik he ever found
him. Bill Huffman and his crew
were there. And so were Pat Hard
wick, Betty Hanson, Kathryn Kes
ter, and Sara Williams.
I don’t know whether it was Er
rol Flynn or Alexis Smith, but one
of them sho* did bring out all of
the people in the school—well, al
most all of them. 1 saw Rosemary
Sweeney and Herman Hayden,
Ann Adams and Graham Barefoot,
Jane Head and Harry Wellott, Bet.
ty Davis and Pat Howe, Lon Us
sery, Edwin Shain, Eugene Mauney
and June Andrews, and just lots
of others. P.S. The show was real
good!
Speaking of Eugene Mauney, I
wonderful news for all of the
people included on his visiting list
and all of their parents. He has
bought a new car! ! It’s a green
four-door Packard—and it has a
horn! Look for Mauney cause he’s
rejoined the automotive owners
Rev. Mortimer Glover came 0ut
to school this past Thursday and
talked with representatives of the
journalism class, art classes, Eng.
lish classes, and Student Legisla
ture about Wilmington, England.
That’s a little village in Sussex
for which cur city was named.
No., that’s not right. I mean that
the Earls of Wiimingion Rad their
family seat there, so they named
cities in the new world after this
family. Mr. Glover has been cor
responding with Rev. Wood in Wil
mington, England, and has re
ceived many interesting articles
from him. Among them were bits
of rock formation found near the
village, pieces of broken window
from the church which was badly
damaged dring the buzz bomb at
tacks, a tin powder flask, and nuts
from s'arious trees. There was
also a limb from a yew tree ■which
grows in the yard of the church
and is believed to be 1500 years
old. Just outside of the village are
some of the chalk cliffs for which
Dover is famous. And on these
cliffs has been carved a 150 foot
cave man which has become the
symbol of the village. Nobody has
been able to say just when this
man was carved there or what
for, but it is believed that he was
in the center of an outdoor theatre
cf worship. Mr. Glover has asked
that people who would like to send
things from our city to England
get in touch with him. It has been
suggested that our high school
adopt theirs and send them books,
etc. This is to be taken up with
the student legislature. So, come
on and get up your contributions1
and let the Wilmingtonians in Eng.
land know how the Wilrr.ingtoni
ans cf the sunny South, U. S. A.,
live.
I listened in on the Teen-Age
Merry-Go-Round this morning and
I sho’ did enjoy the program. Mar
guerite Todd opened with her solo
from "New Moon,” "Softly As In
a Morning Sunrise,” whicn was
more lovely than ever. Then Bob
by Melton and Sara Anne Eaton
did one of the duets from
"Naughty Marietta,” last year’s
production. Barbara Sternberger,
Merry-Go - Round reporter urged
the teen-agers to write the pro
gram and offer suggestions or of
fer their talents for the programs
of the future. And just to show
that we aren’t play and fun,
Bill Peters, Mary Elizabeth West
brook, Jimmy Hanson, and George
Darden gave* some serious views
of the typical youngsters as to
their outlooks for the future of the
city. Other vocal solos were "Ca
rissima" by Sara Anne, “None
But the Lonely Heart,” Bobby
Melton, and "Lullaby and Good
night,” by Miss Eaton. In closing
members of the Glee Club sang
one of the songs they will do in
the state music meet, "A Sea
Prayer.” Be sure to listen to your
program next Saturday at 11
o’clock, and—WRITE!
Another musical organization
enter' ig the music festival from
our high schcol is the orchestra
under the able direction of Mrs.
Eric Norden. In the past this or
chestra has played ten public con
certs, for N. C. Sorosis, and for
school programs. Mrs. Norden has
chosen selections from the Merry
Widow as their warm-up number
and Bach’s Jesu, Joy of Man’s De.
sire. Orchids this week go to Mrs.
Norden and her orchestra for the
wonderful work they have done in
the past and the glorious future

Lent has started and many stu
dents attend their church services
regularly. No, my generation
hasn’t completely forgotten about
God. We do live in a hurry and
seem to be out for only fun and
laughs, but there is a seriousness
about all of us, and we do realize
the tremendous task we have
ahead of us as citizens of the city
and world of tomorrow. And all
of us know that all of our success
depends on God.
This past Wednesday night, the
Bible department of NHHS had
their annual banquet at the
YWCA. And a grand crowd was
there. Dr. William Crfwe, Jr.,
spoke on the part we the youth
have in making the peace of to
morrow. Our guests included Miss
O’Keef, Miss Montgomery, Miss
Sarah Robinson, Miss Elizabeth
McMurray, Miss Susan Smith, and
Mrs. Hooper Johnson (she was
my guest.) And of course our
Bible teachers, Miss Maude Weber
and Miss Charley Mae Cunning
ham were there. They didn’t know
we thought they were swell un
til some of the members came
forth with toasts expressing just
how much they do mean to us.
Mrs. E. F. Williams prepared the
menu and it was the best ever!
Thanks, everybody, for making
the banquet such a success.
Members of the ROTC will be
sorry to learn that their own Capt.
Jenkins is now confined to a hospi.
tal in Dallas, Texas, after an auto,
mobile accident in which he broke
his knee. He was going home but
so far he hasn’t gotten there. Hope
he’ll be well soon!
Well, that”s about all there is
for now'. There’ll be class plays
getting underway real soon and
also plans for commencefnent, so
there’ll be more next time. Until
then, So long!
