ending Twirp season.
Every year at MAHS the second week in February
is Twirp season. The boys happily look forward
to this week, when the girls pay all the bills,
ask boys for dates, and extend all the courtesies
ordinarily the responsibility of the boys. A mock
trial is held for all offenders of the rules and
regulations and tough sentences passed. A
Sweetheart dance, at which the King and Queen of
Hearts are crowned, concludes the week of fun.

SENIORS STAGE SENSITIVE
Try outs, nights of practice, hours
of work on s c e ne r y , search for pro-
perties , ticket sales, posters - -all the se
go into a highlight of our high s c ho ol
years, the senior play.
The 1956 senior play, Seventeenth
Summer, p r e s e nte d Friday evening,
May 4, moved along flawlessly with ex-
cellent casting and acting.
The audience was caught up and
carried along by the spell of the three-
act play, which p o r t r a y s a sensitive
young gir1's last summer at home be-
fore having to go away to college and
her first thrills of growing up.
Repeated by request, Seventeenth
Summer was presented once before by
the class of 1950.

there's a story, endless writing, polishing, and typ-

Those doing the work know a good yearbook
doesn't just happen. Raising funds , taking and
editing pictures, writing and polishing copy, pre-
paring layout and dummy, typing, copy-reading,
checking--all these are details that only staff
members are aware of.
Work on the next book is started as one
edition goes to press. Spring and summer work
was intensified with the beginning of s c h o ol --
and with the news of 1956 Airmont's All-Ameri-

GLEE CLUB BRINGS US PLEASURE
The chorus is made up of two reg-
ular classes that meet for one period

together voices from both classes.
Besides the anticipated school pro-
grams, the glee club appe ar s before
civic, church, and school groups. For
several years a local radio station has
broadcast a weekly glee club program
from the high school. This year their ,
ability to do the Messiah gained the M 'D

group a TV spot. .

WE ENJOY THE FELLOWSHIP
The Mount Airy High School Band adds to th good fel-
lowship of school and civic affairs. Continuing to grow in
spite of heavy graduation losses, the band has 77 members
this year.
The group meets daily as a class and holds extra prac-
tices on the field each night during football season. The re-
sults delight football fans. Also among the band's activities
are numerous appearances before civic groups and city and
c ounty schools, and--this year--a trip to the Shrine Bowl
game in Charlotte.
Heavy civic backing enabled the band to enjoy a trip to
Washington after school last spring. This year all members
are working hard for a trip to Florida in late May.
Majorettes Mary Ruth Vogler Qchiefl, Camille Combs, Patsy Vogler, Debby Douglas
Peggy Vogler, and Cynthia Tillot s on add color to the band's appearances Long
hours of practice go into each routine of the majorettes and of the band.
