Growing from a tiny hamlet in 1865 to a small manufacturing town several years later, then in IQOO, a little city whose very rapid growth has now reached the mark of 70,000 in pop- ulation, it is easy to observe that ours is indeed a city of the New South, continuously outgrowing itself. A This growth has resulted from hard work, for Durham people have always been working people. -- ..1.... , ..1i,.. HER RECOGNITION as a prosperous city has come through the turning wheels of in- dustry, the hum of which resounds over the world by means of such trademarks as i'RenoWned the world 'roundf' 'LBull Durham Smoking Tobaccof' and through the great educational centers located in this vicinity. It, therefore, seems only Fitting that this graduating class of Durham High School should recognize in the yearbook of 1938 the progressive spirit which characterizes our Friendly City of Industry and Education.

Gentlemen: Fora A Piiruou of seventeen years the city has operated under the managerial form of govern- ment. During this time we have had three city managers, first, Mr. R. H. Rigshee, second, Mr. R. W. Flack, and the present manager, Mr. H. A. Yancey. Under the city manager system the govern- ment is divided into two hranches: First, the Council, which is made up of twelve Councilmen and the Mayor. It is the duty of this Council to determine the policies of the city and is known as the executive hranch of city government. Second is the administrative branch which is composed of the City Manager and his staff. We think the city manager form of govern- ment is an efhcient, business-like government and a great amount of good has come to our city by reason of this form of government. Yours very truly, W. F. CARR, Mayor. PAGE I4 vm NY. lf. L DURHAIX4 COUNTY COURT HOUSE PAGE I5 1... Du. NXVILLIAIXI IJANE WANN.fXhI.NKEli Cliclflwuzfz City Board of EdllL'LZZli071 Dean of Duke U72fUL'I'5IiZJl Mia. BASIL MANLY WATKINS Attorney at Lllll! Mus. W. R. STANFORD THE BOARD OF EDUCATION, composed of civic- minded citizens Who are interested in public edu- cation, certainly deserves a place among those who have made Durham the city it is today. It is difficult for an Ordinary citizen, and even one connected closely with the city school system, to realize the Wide range covered by the duties of this body. There falls to this group the task of de- termining almost everything relative to public eglu- cation in Durham. The Board employs teachers and other school Workers, decides upon the length of the school term and holidays, and recommends CITY BIIABD PAGE 16 Miz. liliimiax' QZLIFTON STONE MR.

Every two years the city council elects two DLlI'f ham citizens to serve a six-year term on this policy- forming body of the city school system. In the event of any memher's resignation, the hoard itself appoints some one to fill the unexpired term. These people have clearly shown a great interest in every phase of educational development for the good of Durham's future citizens. Their tireless efforts have enahled Durham High School to rank among the leading schools in the nation in scholar- ship, athletics, and arts. 0F EDI CATIO PAGE I7 Mia. C. T. l30LfXCIL President B. C. Renrzcdy MR. W. F. WARREN Sz1p61'1'uzemfcnz Dzzrluznz City Schools Superintendent W. F. VVarren, executive head of the Durham City Schools, is no stranger to Durham High School. Seven years prior to his heeoming Superintendent of city schools in 1933, he was principal ol' our high school. ln a series of intimate, informative talks with the student groups this year he stressed the theme of Fducczlfon for Lffcx The superintendent always speaks and acts with one motive in mind-A the welfare of the children and teachers ol' Durham. His talks have made us thinkg and We realize that there are some phases of education even more essential to the making of good citizens than mere Uhook-learning. Previous themes that he has emphasized are: Cfzzznlrtw' Zillllllitlllbll and C1'l1'zen5f11'p, lf1npf1a51'z1'r1g the Beam- niful and Czzlluml in Life, and Safely of Ilumczn Life. Mr. Warren received his AB. degree from Elon College, his Ma-X. degree from the University of North Carolina. and he took further graduate work at Duke and Columhia Universities. His understanding attitude toward the problems of modern youth and his interest in school activities plus his genial disposi' tion have made Mr. XVarren a friend to every student. PAGE 18 MR. E. N. IONES Bz1x1'nc'ss Manager Dzzrfmm City Schools To Mr. Iones falls the responsibility of seeing that the financial set-up of the city school system operates with the least possible dilliculty inside its budget. This means that he must help in every way with the business management of the city schools. It is he who, working in the closest cooperation with the superintendent and the Board of Education, must help regulate requisitions, arrange for payment of bills, and assist in budget compilations. It is his duty also to see that the school property is adequately maintained and pro- tected. In this latter duty, Mr. Iones must also attend to the in- surance and inspection of all school properties. Though his job is one that requires the greatest accuracy and precision, Mr. Iones has proved himself to be a capable manager of the city school Hnances.

CITY SCHOOL STAFF IN EVERY organization there are some members whose work, though indispensable, is always carried on behind the scene. Few pupils of Dur- ham High School are acquainted with all of the city school stall and the importance of their posi- tions. Of course Mrs. Robinson's friendly smile re- calls to many of us pleasant memories of ele- mentary school days and valuable lessons learned under her supervision. Her Work involves such duties as correlating and coordinating Work in the elementary grades, conducting regular grade teachers, meetings, and giving demonstration lessons. Next in years of service comes Mrs. Petty, a D. H. S. alumna. Her Work as bookkeeping clerk is that of keeping accurately and neatly all the books, making up payrolls, making out all requisitions and budget requests for the state department, compiling monthly Financial state- ments of general school and book rental funds. Miss Frances Webb, another alumna of this school, is the personnel clerk. She serves as gen- eral secretary in the administration oflice, takes care of practically all correspondence and per- sonnel Hles, and performs many other duties. Mr. B. Andrews is the Book and Supply Manager. Receiving and distributing books and supplies to the various schools, looking after the repairing of books, and serving as general utility manager under the direction of the superintend- ent and business manager are his duties. If ulohnny has been playing truant,', Mr. Al- bert Keller, the director of attendance and of adult education, must know the reason why. He compiles annually a census of children of school age, and makes a study of underprivileged chil- dren of the city. PAGE 20 Col Nl xklox Toning The Messengerf' Durham High School, Durham, North Carolina. Gentlemen: A voi.cME could be written on the accomplishments of the Chamber ol' Commerce since its organization in the Fall of IQI2 and another on hopes and plans for the future. In brief I can only touch upon a few of those things with which you come in contact almost daily: the City-Manager form of government in Durham, annexation which brought several more thousands within the city limits, the City Tree Commission to protect shade IFCCS and to work for a city beautiful, the organization and set up of the Community Fund as a going concern, consolidating seven campaigns for funds in one, thus saving both time and money, a direct road to Rocky Mount saving distance to eastern Carolina points, a third set of buyers on the Durham Market, resulting in an increase of I4 million pounds of tobacco sold here, the armory-auditorium, giving Durham a much needed meeting place and adequate housing for our National Guard Companyg the downtown activity of Duke's Homecoming, now an annual event, and always fostering an interest in improved educational and recreational facilities. For the future, the Chamber of Commerce will continue its program to foster the trade and the welfare of Durham with a varied list of objectives, one of which is the maintenance of adequate city school facilities. Sincerely yours, M. B. FowLER, President, Chamber of Commerce. PAGE 22 IWAIN STREET FROM FIVE-POINTS PAGE 23 MR. QUINTON HOLTON H igh Sch 001 Principal THERE is one person in Durham High School known to every student from his first day in school. That man is Mr. Quinton Holton, our principal. A fact amazing to new students is that the principal can usually call them by name and can tell something about them. His interest in each studentis welfare has made him a friend and foster-father of each of us. Before he became our principal in 1933, he was a teacher of history in this school and also dean of boys. An ardent Latin and History scholar, he has been a credit to the insti- tutions where he received 'his training. He received his A.B. degree from Duke Univer- sity. For further training, he studied at the University of N. C. Medical School and at the University of Chicago Graduate School in History. Mr. Holton is also an accomplished musiciang he plays both the piano and pipe organ. Strong in his adherence to principles of rectitude and Firm in his belief in the reward of honest work, he scorns indolence in every form. If you are right, all's right with our principal.

Be- hold! on the left Scylla fPrincipal's ofhcej and on the right Charybdis fDeans' ofhcej. Like Ulysses of old you are destined to become acquainted with both. On this visit meet the deans. Whether your interview is pleasant or painful depends entirely upon the pur- pose of the visit. On the whole, Mr. Freeman and Mrs. Richardson are pleasant, sympa- thetic advisers, yet positive and matter-of-fact in their dealings with erring students. Mrs. Richardson and Mr. Freeman act as our counsellors, having charge of disciplinary methods and deciding upon the validity of absences and tardies. In their oliice may be found a large set of files which contain detailed records of each pupil that has attended Durham High in the past five years. There are two sets of these records, one permanent and one temporary. On each individual's card may be found the following items: attend- ance, absences, tardies, excuses, honors, awards, activities, attitude, parent, background, and any other information pertaining to the student which may be desired. All of which substantiates what We should have known all along-those advisers certainly do know a lot about a person! PAGE 25 DEPARTMENT MWC all are blind until we see That in the human plan, Nothing is Worth the making, That does not make the man. MIN TIIE sistvtie lines of Edwin Markhamf' said Miss Herr, Hthere is a fundamental truth about education. It is a challenge to those who direct the training of youth to build to that endg and to the members of the department of English it has become a creedf, YVith this viewpoint in mind, the members of the English department have provided for girls and boys in Durham High School a course of study that does not have the acquisition of or- ganized knowledge as its only aim. It is rather a program of worth-while activities in which students normally participate, so guided that the language and literature used, will help them to do better tomorrow the same things they do today, and make life for them a rich and ennobling experience. Composition, which the teachers regard as a tool subject, is taught with equal stress on hav- ing something to say, having a good reason for saying it, and having the technical equipment for saying it effectively. Environment, real or imaginary experiences of everyday life, reading, and travel are sources for developing individual- istic expression. Yes, grammar still holds an important place in the English curriculum throughout the six I u years of high school instruction, how- ever, only what has been proved es- sential to correct self-expression is chosen. Essentials are presented in connection with the study of language errors, through such concrete teaching pupils learn to correct their own mis- takes. Literature as a basis for enjoyment, stimulation, and reflection on human life and character consists of the study of a few great books and a wise se- lection of contemporary literature in class, supplemented by parallel read- ing of books which pupils choose with a definite purpose. men 26 DF ENGLISH Because reading is so indispensable to success nithe vocauonsti hfe,basniskiHsin each type are stressed.

Its superiority in every phase is a source of pride to each student of Durham High School. Every moment in the business class- rooms is fully occupied as each forty-Five min- utes flies by. The steady pace seldom lags. Only occasionally is a class interrupted by an an- nouncement from the Commercial Club Cabinet or by Miss Solloway, rushing in to tell of some nexv acccnntdishnaent naade by rule of her prize graduates. There are eight instructors in the department, three of whom teach in the junior high schools of the city where elementary business principles amtdkummd m dm Cemxd Bmhmw dawm. This task of starting boys and girls on their liusniess careers is die nib of Ddiss Laiuise lierry of the Central Iunior High School, Mrs. Louise Crowder Rightsell of liast Durham, and Mrs. Margaret Noell Dailey of E. K. Powe. Six classes in Shorthand and Typing are held ckuly here ai Senior Iiigh xvnh chcnnion,tran- scnptknp and speed tems,ten in Bookkeeping, one in Commercial Law, and two in Office Ijractice. Miss Solloway, who has been the head of the department for a number of years is, without a doubt, the 'ibackbonel' of every enterprise under- taken near the commercial olhce. One can readily account for her capable management of everyone and every- thing with a glance at her training- teacher naining xvork atthe Phihulek phia Business College, Iohns Hopkins, Temple, Duke, and Harvard Univer- sities, and the Universities of Pennsyl- vania and Southern California. The special held of Miss Thompson, who received her B.A. from Converse and hastakmiconunenid Uannngtn Bowling Green Business College, is in- structing students in typewriting. She is ai charge of advanced typexvrning y and serves the school as no other per- l son could through the typing of the PAGE 28 ' COMMERCE school paper, The HI'-Rocket, and the annual, THE MEssENeER. Besides performing many such jobs which have helped Durham High to func- tion more successfully, Miss Thompson, this year, was in charge of the typing of four thou- sand envelopes for the Red Cross Campaign- an outstanding community service. Mrs. Merritt, a from Winthrop who has done graduate work at Columbia, is another one of our favorites. Because of her unusually amiable disposition and her personal interest in the students, we were in hopes of having her for a number of years. ln Ianuary, however, when she became Mrs. Merritt, it was all we could do to keep her with us this last semester. Mrs. Merritt specializes in the teaching of Ofhce Practice. In her classes, students are trained to do actual olfice work. Booklets, discussions, and typed reports are made on different phases of business, including filing, travel, and sten- ographic qualifications. The library is freely used to secure information on all aspects of busi- ness to which the student will be initiated upon graduation. Mr. Grubbs and Mr. Scott, both graduates of Bowling Green Business College, are in the ac- countancy department. This year has meant the use and adoption of state textbooks and the building up of a new course of study. Durham High students will go out well pre- pared in the field of accountancy he- cause of the conscientious work of these two men. The culmination of every efifort in the commercial classrooms comes in the spring with the state contests. For several years Durham High students have been entered-it is needless to say that they have won many honors. The members of the advanced short- hand classes have been so outstanding that they deserve special mention, for they have won in the contest four times in the last ten years. Indeed, half of Durham High would be gone if we were to omit the Com- mercial Department! PACE 29 V'l YV'Y1g,f,lJ V14 tl -v K wsu, cimiars PII 11.1.1 I s.

CQ Latin affords excellent men- tal training, forms a basis for the study of other languages, opens the door to the whole world of ancient customsand manners,and clarifies our own language, for fully two-thirds of the Latin vocab- ulary has entered English in one form or another. In first year Latin, Roman life and customs, as well as grammar, are taught. The second year consists of the reading of Caesar's Gallic Wars, while third year pupils are familiarized with Cicero's orations. Virgil's L'Aeneid under- goes 'ismooth translation by the fourth, and last, year students. Latin may he dead, but you won't Find many in D. H.

Mr. Humphries, who received AJS. and A.M. degrees from U. S. C. and graduate work at Duke, and Mr. Baucom, who has an A.B. degree from U. N. C. and a Diplome des Etudes Francaises, Universite de liesancon, in- tersperse their class lectures with interesting ac- counts of France and its inhahitants. French students in hrst year classes learn the funda- mentals of this language in phonetics, vocah- ularies, grammar rules, and simple composition. This work is continued in the second year with a more intense study of idioms and grammar correlating with the reading of classical French. The two novels read in this connection are Sans Famille and 4'L'Abb6 Constantinfy Mr. Humphries may insist, L'Ughugh, well, the book's wrong, and Mr. Baucom may demand that we tell him the French for everything we drop on the floor, hut we still appreciate the in- terest which they have shown in their struggling Heleves de francais. The entire student body may well he proud of the honors the Foreign Language has hrought to the school. Lelia Lawrence, '58, won first place in the state Latin contest this year, ljmily Tilley, E. I. Daniel, and Lelia Lawrence won second place. In addition to team honors, E. Daniel's and limily Tilley's, '38, won third and fourth places respectively in the individual contests. lfaucom Ilonuorxn PAGE 31 S'1'icw,'tur XYAnsxx or 1 ix Q rl . ' .f bwmmii DEPARTMENT 01? 4E 'Gif THE Ti-IREE courses offered in the science de- partment, only one is requiredg this may be either Biology, Chemistry, or Physics. Many sophomores choose Biology. Maybe they do so because it is primarily a sophomore course, or because they need it for college en- trance-or could it be possible that they just like to observe minute protozoa glide gracefully across a microscope slide? They have a change to make this observation when they study zo- ology during the first semester. The study be- gins with the lowest form of life, which is life in the one-cell stage, and proceeds step by step to the animals of higher specialization. Out- standing in the dissection department is the tense moment when the pupil bravely grasps a formaldehyde-preserved frog in one hand, a knife in the other, and proceeds mercilessly by carefully explained steps to mangle the little creature. Field trips to nearby streams and Helds help to bring out the relations between Zoology and life. During the spring a corresponding study is made of plants. Chemistry is zt more specialized course in science which deals with such topics as chemis- try in the home, chemistry in industry, and chemistry in everyday life. The student chemists gather twice a week in the laboratory to concoct what the outside world terms poisonous gas Cand worsej. The fumes invariably drift out into the adjacent halls. When hydrogen sulphide is made, no loiterers can be found lingering in the halls. Physics is also a more specialized course. It deals with such topics as mechanics, heat, electricity,light,sound, and radio. This course is offered for PAGE 32 NATURAL SCIENCE both boys and girls who intend to continue their education in related fields and to those who will enter the commercial field and who desire this practical knowledge which Physics offers. As one dashes past one laboratory in an effort to escape the deadly fumes manufactured by the Chemistry class, he finds himself face to face with the darkened door of the other lah. at the end of the hall. On investigation it is found that movies are being shown today. Not, to be sure, the variety that feature the fascinating ladies and gentlemen of the cinema, but instructional sound films on units of works that have been completed in class instruction. This year for the first time the University of North Carolina sponsored a state-wide Physics contest in which Durham was represented by seven students. Louis Warlick's paper won first place in the high school competition and an honorable mention in the state contest. He also won the Bausch and Lomb award for the stu- dent who has shown the most interest and progress in science for the past three years. Martha Dixon brought further distinction to the school by winning the Gorgas Memorial Contest. The teachers of science are: Mrs. li. S. Swindell, A.B. Duke University and Duke Summer Schoolg Miss Dorothy Wilson, A.l5. Duke University with graduate workg Mr. B. G. Stewart, A.B. and Ed.M., Duke Universityg Mr. E. VVads- worth, AB.

PAGE 35 XXYILSHN S it IELDS l'fES-TER 1n:BRL'x'Nr: VVOODNYARD VVATKINS DEPARTMENT UF VITALIZING mathematics in the life of the stu- dent, laying a strong foundation, and preparing rhe pupil for problems later in life are the chief aims of this department. One often hears, how- ever, the question asked, Why am I taking this mess, and what good is it doing me, any- wayPl' Our math teachers consider answering these questions one of their duties. A visitor would be quite amused upon enter- ing Mr. de Bruyne's room to hear him saying, Come on, fella! Eas-y! Mr. de Bruyne is the head of this department, and he really makes Plane Geometry and Advanced Algebra a pleas- ure. The students take a great interest in their geometry notebooks which contain theorems and colorful illustrations. Although Trigonom- etry and Solid Geometry are not required, many students elect them for extra courses. The re- quired math for college preparatory diploma is one year of Plane Geometry and two years of Algebra. A course in just one of these is re- quired for a general or commercial diploma. Miss Louise Watkins, who received her A.B. degree from Meredith College and also has graduate work at Duke and Columbia Univer- PACE MATHEMATICS sities to her credit, has heen a popular memher of the department for several years. Other capable teachers in the math department are Miss Virginia Hobgood, also of the Foreign Language Department, and Mr. I. L. VVoodf ward, both of Whom received their AJS. degrees at Duke University. Mrs. H. W. Richardson, Dean of Girls, also teaches in this department. In the state math contest the students of Dur- ham High have usually come through with Hy- ing colors and have upheld the standards of our school. Through them D. H. S. has ranked first three times and has received honorahle mention nearly every year. This year our school was rep- resented in the state contest with Samuel Hol- ton's paper. On the first Wednesday of each month one may see faculty memhers who are connected with the math department engrossed in an open forum at its departmental meeting. Here the teachers discuss problems and methods of teach- ing, and standards to he attained. They plan the course so thoroughly that the graduates are prepared to enter the math department of any college. Ricimnnsoix PAGE Hoiuzoon SHIKI Dx GHOLSON - xvil-IICHARD I wAs WAITING in room 122 to complete a so-called interview with Mrs. Belle C. Ghol- son, head of the Social Science Department. As she talked with a student at her desk, I overheard this remark: M-but I don't con- sider dates important except as racks that we can hang our facts on-so we can take them down when we need them and hang them back until we need them againf' This state- ment was a very familiar one to me, for I heard it many times as, in those unique classes of hers, we just liven together, stu- dents and teacher. I smiled inwardly as many other similar statements and ideas so characteristically ex- pressed came to my mind, for 'lMa,', as she is affectionately known to all of us, really makes social science live for her pupils by the DEPARTMENT use of such unusual dehnitions and applica- tions. But I collected rambling thoughts as, after a jolly laugh and a Hnal all right, son, she dismissed the other pupils and asked what she could do for me. No time was wasted after I explained my purpose-to gain some information pertain- ing to the Social Science department. Well, said she with a sly twinkle, I think perhaps we ought to call these subjects ASocial Studies,' instead of 'Social Science,'- because we really don't know much. I heart- ily, though silently, agreed. Continuing my questions, I gained knowl- edge of many details about this particular phase of our High School curricula that had hitherto been vague to me. The Department of Social Studies is comprised of courses in American History, Sociology, Economics, American Government, and Industrial Ge- ography. Those other teachers who comprise our So- cial Science department with Mrs. Gholson. who has an A.M. from Columbia with work at U. of Pennsylvania, are E. L. Phillips, who received his A.M. degree at Dukeg W. G. Whichztrd, who has an A.B. and A.M. from PAGE 36 SOCIAL SCIENCE U. N. C.g and C. R. Baucom, whom the de' partment has borrowed from the Foreign Language department for one period each day. A little later, in the course of our discus- sion, Ma said, '4You know, the relationship of History and Geography is really that of Siamese twins. So we try to get our folks too, to link the two together, because, just as History tells KWho' and 'Whatf Geography tells 'Wheref and often 'Why.

By such stand- ards we are inspired Hto live more fullyf, Unwilling to take more time than neces- sary, I asked the general aims of the depart- ment, finding them both practical and ap- plicable.

That's the Fessor, though, he knows when those notes are being hit and when they're being slid under.

DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION Clangl Clangl Clangl Could those rhythmic beats be a rehearsal of the KAnvil Chorus' next door? an inquir- ing listener in ookg asked one morning last fall. 'KIt's the ishop boys', came the reply. The department has added a new basement room so that more industrial courses can be offered this yearf' Both Industrial Arts and vocational courses are offered by this department. The former provides opportunity for general experiences that are of value to all boys, while the latter provides specialized training for those enter' ing or continuing their studies in mechanical and technical fields. Courses taught include work in drafting, woodwork, carpentry, cabinet-making, ma- chine shop, sheet metal, and forge. Hand work is stressed in industrial arts courses, and both hand work and machine work in Timnsixuim Iiow1.1Nt: SANDVILS vocational courses. Visits to shops and fac- tories, studies of trade magazines and books, and also motion pictures are utilized in sup- plementing the work. Included among the many projects con- structed in various classes are tools, machine parts, duct work, sheet metal articles, forg- ings, ornamental ironwork, furniture, car- pentry work, and architectural and machine drawings. Three shops, one each for metal work, woodwork, and drafting, accommodate the classes. The teaching staff includes three in- structors. Murray D. Thornburg is Director of the department. He received his HS. de- gree at East Tennessee Teachers' College, graduate work at N. C. State College and Pennsylvania State College. I. Howard Sandvig, instructor in wood- shop, is a graduate of Stout Institute and re- ceived the HS. degree from this college. Harry L. Howling, drafting instructor, is a graduate of N. C. State. Both Mr. Bowling and Mr. Sandvig are teaching in D. H. S. for the first time this year. NYT If R THE LIBRARY OH! ANOTHER library hne! By carelessness, another book had lain around too long without being read, and, though unwilling to part with another two cents, this worried reporter dragged herself through the double doors of the Durham High School Library. Glancing about the spacious, shelf-lined room, she began to Wonder about the whole work of her school library. First, Whitt is a library?,' Slightly ashamed but undaunted, she approached the librarian, Miss Florine Lewter, who is always willing to answer questions. There's nothing about libraries that our librarian Duke, graduate work Duke and Columbia, and A.l5., Library Science, U. N. C., doesn't know. fAnd do we give her the opportunity to expound her knowledge?j fDo we give her practice?j Our library, Miss Lewter answered, 'Ais a collection of books covering a wide range of subjects and is organized for service. We have 4,124 volumes in our collections, Fifty well-selected magazines, and four newspapers. And how does the Library Council come in? your inquiring reporter then asked. The students on thc Council are my assistants and help in cir- culation, preparation of books for shelves, checking mail, collecting fines and overdue books, and shelving the returned volumes. Our chief function is service, and from 8:25 until 4:oo we help around six hundred students to find references and magazine arti- cles as well as to choose good reading material. UA very helpful phase of the library service is that of Library Instruction. This course proves helpful to students, teachers, and library staff because the boys and girls become familiar enough with the library to do reference work for l themselves. During three years in high school each student nreceives twelve lessonsf' she concluded. I left that well-organized room re- alizing what a vital part of Durham High our library is. M. K. PAGE 40 I.. ,D ,W DEPARTMENT OF ART I'r's A Loxo hard climb to the art room on the third floor, but those worthy of the endeavor never count the tedious steps, for there is something about this room that draws certain pupils as a loadf stone's magnetic power. At any time of the day groups of wouldfbe artists may be seen at their work: soap carving, pen and ink drawing, clay tiles, murals, or any of a large number of absorbing activities included in the art curriculum. Wliile there are only two courses offered in art, the advanced course particularly offers so many phases of LlI'I work that it really appears to be several courses. The artist sees art in everything. His trained eye is constantly seeing possibilities for the beautification of his surroundings by a little application of his artistic knowledge. There are evidences of this all about our school. The cafeteria, the library, and even some classrooms are constantly changed--remade, as it were, by little touches of the artists. Art is not only an essential factor in the education of talented and ambitious students who have chosen an artist's career, but is an indispensable part of the cultural background offered by Durham High School. For this reason many who have no particular talent for art join the class and add their cheerful splotches to the skillful painting of their more capable classmates. Occasionally a pupil of this group discovers his hidden talent and makes art his life work. Several people have brought honors to our school and city in the winning of state or national honor Cas did Ralph Barker recentlyj. Mrs. Mason has been Art Director of Durham city schools for five years. Her work is what it is not only be- cause of her excellent training at Co- lumbia University, Maryland Institute, Duke University, and studies abroad, but also because of her genuine per- sonal interest in every individual with whom she is associated. PAGE 41 MAsoN xXv0OLYi'fJR'l'Il LAP. Am: The Home Economics Department is housed in four bright, attractive rooms of Central Iunior High School. When your MESSENGEIQ reporter entered the sewing room, she found girls busily working at the sewing machines. The remain- der of the room was Filled with large tables at which groups of prospective homemakers were cutting and basting. When this wandering scribe visited the food DEPARTMENT OF HOME ECONOMICS laboratory, a pleasant picture greeted her eyes. Girls in starched green and yellow smocks were perched on stools copying recipes in notebooks that rested on cleanly-scrubbed white tables. Others cleaned vegetables in glistening sinks, while others watched aromatic concoctions bub- ble in shiny pans on the stove. Your itinerant snooper then chanced upon a completely fur- nished combination living and dining room where dinner was being served. At one end of the table the hostess for the occasion was gra- ciously pouring hot chocolate, while another dis- guised as a maid circled the table as she served her classmates who constituted the guest list for the occasion. At the living room unit, groups of girls were reading and talking. The art of get- ting along with other people is being stressed this year. It was at this time that Miss Woolworth told me of an interesting experiment that the depart- ment is carrying on this year: The class is di- vided into family groups of different means: one in which the income is smallg another in which the income is averageg and a third in which money is no concern. Family relations are stressed, and girls learn through experience how to meet every situation in any type of home. Home Economics is one of the broadest sub- i'eU the curricula, be iiimbraces all kinds of knowledge and training. It was en- couraging to lind that an advanced home eco- nomics student is as capable of running a home as she is of concocting fancy desserts and making ruflies. This ability as a homemaker is greatly enhanced by the aid which her two well- qualihed instructors give her. Both Miss Wool- worth and Mrs. La Prade have received MA. and A.B. degrees respectively from Columbia University and from Queens College. S. N. PAGE 42 DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION intra-mural! This word now holds a new meaning for us. Last fall it meant some variation of Mr. VVebster's definition: intra-class games, within walls. But as various sports gained the limelight, it has come to signify a fine spirit of cooperation, clean sportsmanship, and excellent teamwork, all of which have helped our athletes to win the honors they now hold. Last September we welcomed to our faculty Coach Sykes, a graduate from Wake Forest with a B.S. degree, who was far from being a stranger, for we were acquainted with his record at junior High, that is, with his excellent coach- ing and his first six weeks g'F's in history. To begin with, his classes named themselves for prominent teams and battled almost daily for the football championship, which L'Notre Dame finally captured. Newcomers during the basketball season de- clared D. H. S. a topsy-turvy place. So did we academic veterans for a while as lusty cheers from the gym furnished a startling and novel accompaniment for the usual rattle of dishes and the steady hum of school gossip floating over lunch tables. Nevertheless, we soon dis- covered that the boys were playing during lunch. Meals were hastily swallowed in a rush for standing roam-and the spectators weren't all boys! The prophetic ability of many school sages was gratified when, in the final game played before I'iriday's assembly, Duke con- quered 4'Minnesota. Forbidden football,-possibly only by that im- portant factor of public opinion fahl history classeslj-the girls began volleyball. Under the supervision of Miss Brown, who received her l3.S. degree from W. C. U. N. C., the unworthy namesakes of various institutions of knowledge played after school. Class games followed intra- mural with the resulting tie between Iuniors Svkies Bimww and Sophomores which finally ended in victory for the Sophs. The noon shouts often had a different tone- or was that imagination? Those were the days when the feminine basketeers sought the championship. It continued with customary squeals, although there was comparatively little hair-pulling over referees' decisions. The Iuniors finally emerged triumphant. Indeed 'Kintra-murals have become an impor- tant part of Durham High's athletic program. In A - PAGE Roan-:Rs DEPARTMENT OF CUOPERATIVES TIIE CooPERA'r1vE Class of Durham High illustrates the progressiveness of the educational program of the Durham City Schools in that this class was the first one of its kind in North Carolina and one of the first in the South. The City of Durham, by opening her industries to the Cooperative part-time boys of Durham High, made it possible for over hve hundred young men to earn a living while continuing their high school studies. Many of these fellows learned trades which they are following for their life work. Thus the Cooperative Class and the City of Durham work hand in hand in giving opportunities to those ambitious self-help boys who wish to prepare themselves for advance- ment in their chosen vocations. To be eligible for membership every boy must show that his in- terest is great enough to warrant the making of necessary sacrifices. Each Coop feels the responsibility of following the tradition of this class in living Lip to its high standards. Since he arranges his schedule so that he is in school just such hours as his work permits, he only takes the subjects which he feels he can satisfactorily carry. Coops average working about thirty-five hours a week. When you take into consideration this work coupled with the effort which is required for carrying three or four subjects in school, you have some idea of the determination and perseverance which characterize these young men. This industry does not go unrewarded, however, for those who have gone through the mill, are now the respected holders of important positions in the business world. Much credit for the success of this cooperative plan must go to its organizer, Miss Rogers, who received AB. and A.M. degrees from Duke and continued her education with graduate work at the Uni- versities of Pennsylvania, Chicago, and Harvard. It is her intense in- terest in this project which has been an inspiration to these Coop boys. Each year that Miss Maude has been in Durham High she has shown her- self to be a real teacher, a true leader, and above all an interested compan- Tin. M' The students who are working and receiving their education at the same time are availing themselves of an op- portunity which does not come to many. Besides the advantage of gain- ful employment and experience, they are broadening their minds and facul- ties to cope with the increasing com- petition in an already highly compet- itive world. PAGE 44 V' W, THE SECRETARY 'LMiss I-lessee, see that this announcement gets in. 'KWhen can I see Mr. Holton? Please type these for me, Miss Hesseef' How BKANY of us realize just what Dorothy Hessee has to do besides say All right to our many requests? She carries on the work which keeps this school from losing time, money, and patience. However, our secretary has something more to do besides answer our daily quantity fno less than live hundred mouthfulsj of questions. When she is DOI serving Mr. Holton as his private secretary, Miss Hessee is ftake a deep breath, here we goj keeping records, writing v iff Iliissm-1 Z ,J V i ff up reports, checking in money, making our schedules, and what have you.

Each year reports, which require more computation, must he drawn up for the superin- tendent, for the state, and for the Southern As- sociation of Secondary Schools. Perhaps one of the most trying tasks is checking the money turned in for Hz'-Radial-Athletic tickets, musical CAFETERIA programs, plays, and other performances which charge admission. Even summer brings no rest to deserving souls. lt is then that schedules and schedule cards Fntlst be made out, and so here we go, losing no time in getting back to the office. g'Miss Hessee, whom did l get for English?

Since four cooks, eight girls, two cashiers, and a soup slingern do the actual cooking, serving, and collecting of money, she is left free to do all of the buying, menu planning, and settling of accounts. Let us consider buying for a moment. lt's no hve pounds of this and two pounds of that, instead, a hundred pounds of potatoes, sixty pounds of meat, and eight hundred sand- wiches sounds more like our order from the D.

HILL BUILDING SENIURS 51 SENIUR CLASS HISTORY IT semis as though we have been in High School forever, but that isn't be- cause we haven't enjoyed our years, here. They have been grand and full to the brim with happy experiences which we shall never forget. Numerous have been the opportunities open to us in scholastic, artistic, and athletic helds, and we may proudly say that many from our class have shone in each di- vision. 'Way back in ,35 we started out as brilliant green Sophomores. That year seems rather dim to us now, but we do remember how scared and insignificant we felt at first. VVe gradually outgrew that wide-eyed, innocent look, and the next thing we knew we were Iuniors. The most important date on our social calendar was the Iunior-Senior social which we gave for the Seniors. As pres- ident of the class, Ruben Whitfield, was chief host. Roles were reversed this year, with us being royally treated at the Iuniors' expense. In spite of the fact that Seniors are supposed to be walking encyclopedias, this year we began to admit there were some things that just couldn't be founzl between our pages. However, Lelia Lawrence proved she had brains plus by winning the State Latin contest. We laid aside books and papers to go in for sports in a big way. Co-captains Kent Boutwell and George Spransy helped Urough it upa' on the gridiron: and just to mention basketball makes us fairly burst with pride. The team didn't lose a single game, and Captain Ruben Whitfield and Fred Moore, Sen- iors, were certainly no hindrances to the perfect record. Iimmy Changaris, David Silver, and Albert Rose wrestled and boxed their way to fame. The boys got a big kick out of the 4'femme athletics, but the girls took their sports seriously and went out for PAGE 52 everything from basketball to bike rid- ing, with Doris Nachamson, as president of the G. A. A., leading them. Ask Kinton, Brogden, Rat Harris, Cheek, or Holton about the HHi- Rocket,', and they will convince you that they were practically worked to death. Iudging from the peculiar noises which issued from the 'gHi-Rocket room we'd say a little of everything went on. Seriously, these people helped put out splendid issues of the paper every two weeks of the year, a state- ment proven by the fact that the Hi- Rocketn was awarded medalist rating by the Columbia Scholastic Press Asso- ciation. Along with Spring and sleeping on classes came the beginning of real work on the Messenger.,' E. Daniels, Iohn Milner, jane Chesson, Martha Dixon, Lelia Lawrence, and Lucie Lea Cavedo will testify that getting it out was no small job. The class went dramatic this year as it put on the unusual Death Takes A Holiday. Bill Seeman fluttered fem- inine hearts in the leading role of Death. May Day has always been a gala event of Spring, and this year's celebration was certainly no exception. We were proud as Punch of our comely queen, Elsie Broocks, who, with her maid of honor, Elizabeth Christian, and a bevy of fair Senior attendants including Emily Vaughn, Mildred Whitaker, Billie Dor- ity, and Frances Inscoe, did much to brighten up the old Athletic Park. As a parting gesture, and we're DOI boasting, weid like to point out that with regard to the failure rating for the past three Senior classes, the class of '58 rates lowest. Yes, we've had a wonder- ful three years. True, it hasn't all been smooth sailing, but weive reached our port, and it's all over but the happy landing! J H IQEN 'r Hm rw 1-11.1.

PAGE gg PAGE IOO A NECESSITY to any community is the steadying influence of people whose common sense enables them to meet situations with level heads. Without a certain amount of con- servatism, Durham could not have withstood the years with their quota of radical schemes. VVATTS HOSPITAL JUNIURS P-XGE IOI JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY AT ONE TIBIE or another we are all Iuniors in High School, experiencing that in-between feeling of importance and unimportance. We, the Iuniors, take for granted that the Sophomores are to be handled with kid gloves and guided in such a way as always to be just 'fso-so even though they are timid little creatures. Then, there are the Sen- iors who evermore practice their supe- riority over us. We, realizing that noth- ing can be done Cyetj to even up the score, take things as they come and de- light in saying, Well, we at least have something to look forward to! We don't mind playing follow the leader with such people as Vernon Harward, president, Morrison Gurga- nus, vice-president, Lillian Boyd, secre- tary, and Stephen Harward, treasurer, at the head of the line. They can do such interesting things Qthose class meetingsjl We give our thanks to Miss Brown Phillips and Mr. W. G. Which- ard who have devoted much of their time to helping us keep on the 'fright track' in carrying out our plans. When one mentions the Iunior-Sen- ior social, we have reason to grow moody in a happy way. This year we handled this affair in a slightly differ- PAGE IO2 ent manner: each home room elected a representative, then these nine repre- sentatives formed a committee, drew up the plans, and presented them to the Iunior Class. With but a few altera- tions we were able to sponsor a most successful social. Congratulations are now in order for some Iuniors. First in line is Elizabeth Twaddell. Hurrah for her! She won five of the nine places in the State Art Contest sponsored by the Women's Art Clubs of North Carolina. The close of the girls' basketball season this year saw the Iunior girls, led by lean Booth fanother congratulationQ, cop the cham- pionship, going through the season un- defeated. We are also rightfully proud that two-thirds of the varsity was com- posed of Iuniors fand still more con- gratulationsj. We give many thanks to E. Daniel, Editor-in-chief, for making it possible for us to have individual pictures, an honor heretofore unenioyed. Although it doubled our class dues, we felt the re- sult well worth the added expense. And now we have come to the set- tling of the score-watch out, Durham High!

In this campaign we Sophomores first proved our ability by breaking all rec- ords in the sale of tickets. This achieve- ment and the subsequent attention and praise which we received from the fac- ulty and upperclassmen, did much to restore our self-conhdence which was badly shaken when we Hrst entered Durham High. We had been a group of shy, bewildered creatures whose only common characteristics was a pro- nounced green hue. Outwardly, most of us tried desperately to give the im- pression of having everything under control, but it was obvious, even to the casual observer, that all were inwardly quaking. Many wandered helplessly about for days before they became ac- customed to Durham Highis maze of halls and stairways. However, with the help of sympathetic teachers and upper- classmen, who tried to make the orienta- tion as pleasant as possible, we over- came, somewhat, the inferiority com- plex which had been such a handicap. PAGE I I4 Then we set out to mold our class into a well-knit organization. Bob Gantt, who had already proved himself a capable and popular leader in Iunior High, was chosen president. Iohn Poe was elected vice-president, and Rowena Mason was selected secretary-treasurer. Feeling prepared, as a body, to cope with the new and fascinating school life before us, we turned our eager Llttell- tion tothe various activities which form such a vital part of that life. Here again we broke records of long standing by placing more members on the various athletic squads than had any previous Sophomore class and by swelling the ranks of dramatic and literary societies to capacity. We joined art and music classes and, after persevering effort, proved our ability in these fields. All these accomplishments, and the splen- did spirit displayed by members of our class in backing, whole-heartedly, all school projects, has won for us an en- viable reputation. While we have taken a certain amount of pride in all our enterprises, we are also keenly aware of the added respon- sibility that such' a record demands. May our class of '40 continue to be a breaker of records in every worthy en- deavor! We have proved that we can. lt's up to us-if we will. Ros GANTT P1'e'x1'4lw1!

Only after they have completed intensive training courses do Durham's police and fire- men enter upon their jobs-jobs which necessitate steady nerves anal alert minds. These men are then on tufenty-four hour duty, quiclq to ansufer our calls for help. FIRE STATION NUMBER I C0iiPEl:ATlvEs COCPERATIVE CLASS THE CooPERAT1vE class has had a varied and in- teresting program during 1957-1938. Many out- side activities, thirty or more industries, and about two hundred school courses have kept the boys moving at a rapid pace. Fewer failures, fewer absences, and better attitudes have been the aim of these boys who work, play, and at- tend school in such a way as to realize many of their most ambitious dreams. A very active follow-upl' program is carried out by the Cooperative class. livery four years a homecoming dinner is given by the Coop alumni. The first one took place in IQSO at the Washington Duke Hotel, the next in 1934 at Camp Sacarusag and the last, on February 25, FERRELL BRIDGES P1'CSZ'dL'IIf Vice-Prvxidcul 1938, at the Durham City Armory.

Messages were received from most of the eighteen states where Coop alumni are at work. After dinner a most inspirational program was presented. ln 1937-1958 the Cooperative class again joined hands with its sister organization, the Commercial Club, in presenting the Coroso play. This year's production, Anne of Green Gables, was enthusiastically received. Freddie Cobb, Linwood Driver, Donald Ray, and Iames Strick- land carried the roles for the Coop boys. Another venture in dramatics by these Coops of '58 was A Girl to Order, a one-act play, full of rollicking humor. u...-ff x.

HERR 'KThe Messenger Durham High School Durham, North Carolina Gentlemen: The Altrusa International Club of Durham-Chapel Hill was organized in October 1934 with Dr. A. T. Smith, a graduate of Durham High, as its lirst president. Its membership is based on special classifications and its drawn from the business and professional women in the communities holding executive positions of a responsible character. The ideals it fosters are patriotism, efficiency, and serv- ice which are reflected in the objectives. The aims are to foster fellowship among its members: to secure improved economic status of Women, to main- tain a high ethical standard in all business and profes- sional relationships and to provide vocational guidance for women preparing for careers. Besides this, every club pledges itself to support with its united strength all movements for civic progress. Since its organization, the club has sponsored an annual clean- up campaign, and the establishment of a public rest room, the Girl Scouts' Organization, and to date is a sustaining member of the Nursery School.

Hhard to understand, not surhcient talent, Death Takes 61 Holiday was presented to two enthusiastic au- diences on April S, amid the thunder of approving applause. Capahly playing the dirlicult role of Death visit' ing the earth in the form of the mortal Prince Sirki, Bill Secman proved himself a real actor. ln his search for happiness he made love to Rhoda, .1 healthy young girl fMartha Dixonj and Alda, a restless sophisticate Cl.ucie Lea Cavedoj, who por- trayed their inability to understand anything not materialistic. Martin Crotts as an admirer of Alda ahly put across his distrust and dislike of the Prince, All this time Dulce Lanhert Cfieorge Vifatkinsj was living in constant fear oli what this powerful guest who had demanded his hospitality would do next. The Duke skillfully conveyed the weight of his secret and his horror of what might happen if he divulged it. Emily Vaughan, as the Dukels de- voted wife, was most convincing in her consterna- tion over her husband. The climax of the play was reached when the Dulie revealed that not only was Sirlci in reality Death, hut that he was in love with the beautiful, unalliected Grazia, so capahly portrayed hy lane Chesson. Urazials mother QDorothy Hinsonj and her lover Climmy Farleyj won the sympathy of the audience with their wellfhandlcd roles ol' two hewildered mortals who could not understand Grazials lack of fear of Death, One other besfdes the lovely girl, however, sensed that Death was nothing to fear. This was Major VVhitread Qlient Boutwelll, a memher of the Foreign Legion who had nearly met Death many times hefore. limmy Changaris, the plucky old Baron who felt that twenty years had dropped from his age, lent excellent comedy relief. Frances Edwards, the maid, and loe Kennedy, the hutler, completed the well-chosen cast, which director R. G. VValser, with his efhcient stage crew, presented so successfully.

MAY COURT Today we have gathered both large and small To witness a festival, the gayest of all Assembled together spread over the green To do honor to our loyal May Qaeenli' WITH ALI. due pomp and ceremony Elsie Broocks, elected from Durham High's hevy of beautiful girls, was crowned to reign as Queen of May. For the entertainment of the Queen and her court, the Festival of Old King Cole was given. The various Mother Goose Rhymes interpreted hy approximately iooo dancers were: Sing a Song of Sixpenceg Ride a Cockhorseg Humpty Dumptyg lack lie Nimbleg Little Bo Peepg Little Miss Mufletg Old XRIOIHZIH Lived in a Shoe, See, Saw, Marjorie Dawg lack and Iillq Little Boy Blue, Bobby Shaftog and Mistress Mary. The festivities were sponsored hy the Physical Education Departments with participants from each of the city schools. The most impressive fea- ture of the program was the traditional May Pole dance with three hundred children winding simul- taneously twelve May Poles. Reigning with Queen Elsie were her Maid of Honor, Elizabeth Christian, and attendants Frances lnscoe '33, Mildred VVhitaker '38, Emily Vaughan '38, Billie Dorrity '38, Betsy Berry '39, Kathleen H.

Of course, every- one knows that Coroso players come from the Coop class and the Commercial department. But few people know the name is Coroso be- cause of that reason. The 'ACo are the first two letters of Coop, the 'Aron the Hrst letters of Miss Maude Rogers, name, and the usol' comes from Miss Ethel Solloway's name. Last fall after Weeks of intensive training under the direction of Mr. Bailey Hobgood, the Coop boys and Commercial girls presented Anne of Green Gables, which was rated a superb performancef, The Coroso play is always regarded as the biggest event on the Commercial and Coop cal- endars of the year. In these performances the business and industrial aspirants show the school that they can do more things artistically than playing upon typewriters, adding machines, and cash registers, and drawing pretty symbols in shorthand and keeping neat, accurate balances in bookkeeping. The study involved in the presentation of the Coroso play means as much in the actual train- ing as a good course in dramatics. Playmaking to the Corosos therefore has become an art through hard work, serious study, and a co- operative spirit that always characterizes their productions.

The meetings are held bi-monthly. Although it is a great undertaking, this studentfgoverning body endeavors to fulfill the wishes of the student body whenever possible and practicable. Because there are so many representatives attend- ing these council meetings, several committees with their respective chairmen are appointed to decide in private meetings on important matters occurring between regular council assemblies. The various committees are: auditorium, school improvements, scholastic, buildings and grounds, games, traffic, and cafeteria. These committees of the council work together and strive for cooperation between the student body and themselves. The question of giving dances in the gym after school was discussed and voted on during the Hrst semester. The proceeds were to be used for school improvements and the athletic fund Cwhich inci- dently appeared to be needed since the basketball boys made so many trips during their victorious seasonj. But no definite decision was reached, and once again this plan has been left for another year. At one time the proposal of a school store was presented, but when voted on in various home rooms, the motion did not carry. There was so much to be considered in the plan, such as where the store would be located, who should run it, and whether it would be profitable. The proceeds from the IO cent admission price, which each student paid to see the educational and recreational entertainment presented at school this year, served as a contribution to the student activity fund. Perhaps the most enjoyable of these pro- grams were the Tom Thumb Circus and the American Indian Show which were engaged through the help of the auditorium committee. The matter of attendance at the P. T. A. meet-- ings was the cause of much concern in the council this past year. Special programs have been held, drives put on, and even the coveted prize-going Hrst in lunch line for a week-given to the class having the most parents present at P. T. A. meet- ings. COne council member seriously suggested that we try to have at least a few more parents than teachers present at P. T. A. meetings. j And this has helped tremendously. Also this year the first and second Semester groups have put a great deal of emphasis on school spirit, inside and outside the school. The traffic committee has met still' competition because of the additional number of students enrolled in Durham High this year. The games committee has worked for more spirited pep meetings, and during the football season, was well rewarded for its effort. This committee has also stressed the need of school spirit and sportsmanship during athletic campaigns. During the first semester, Vernon Harward and NValter Shackleford, chosen as representatives from the student council, were sent to attend a meeting of the North Carolina Student Council Congress, held at VVashington, North Carolina. At this meetf ing various methods of raising money and improv- ing the individual schools were discussed. Due to the splendid cooperation of the student body with the committees, and also the committees with their faculty advisers, the Student Council ac- complished much this year.

Iiditor-iii-Clzief THE MESSENCEIQ staff heads had decided long before the school term began that, this year, everything would be carried out in such a systematic, prompt manner, that there could not possibly be that period of hair-tearing and frantic rushing about which has always preceded the publication of the yearbook. MESSENGER We all thought it would be a simple matter for the literary staff to complete the Write-ups early in the fall and have the rest of the year to finish the plan- ning of small details and to help the other divisions. But-as the lirst six Weeks slipped by, we realized that few clubs had even HHCI, and in the second and third very little seemed to be accomplished. Of course, the articles were assigned, but, why not Wait until later in the year to start the writingi until the literary societies would be having their banquets, and the projects of the organizations would be really under way? Then, many of the athletics took place in the spring and absolutely nothing could be done about that. In short, with the year almost over, We dis- covered ourselves in a predicament worse than that First row: L. O'Brie11, S. Jones, N. Carver, A. Vlfannainaker. Second row: R. Algrauti, E.

Those last Write-ups, and that tantalizing last-minute rush will long be ref membered as perhaps the sore spots in the high- school careers of many annual staff members. The business managers had been unusually am- bitious, having undertaken the task of allowing for individual junior pictures, of adding many class' room scenes and of increasing the snapshot section. If it had not been for the New York trip to the Columbia Scholastic Press Association Convention which alleviated the tedium ol' their work and spurred them on at the same time, they would probably have been on the verge of Hqtlittiiigi' many UITICS.

This was a result of hoth the allirmative and the negative teams having been victorious in their triangular dehate. The affirmative side of the question was upheld hy Kathleen Watkins and Samuel Holton, with Holland Holton serving as alternate. The proponents ol' the negative were Betsy Bryant and George VVatliins with the negative alternate, Iohn Carr. As soon as the tryouts were held and these six were selected, Mrs. Gholson, our Fighting lrishw coach hegan to organize her teams. ln the Durham, Raleigh, Fayetteville triangle, the aflfirmative won a 2-1 decision over Raleigh while the negative received a unanimous decision over Fayetteville. Although hoth teams worked hard to get to the hnals in Chapel Hill, they were eliminated in the Hrst rounds. Under the able coaching of Mrs. Belle C. Cholson, the teams were ahle to do as well as they did. Our hats are off to you, l'Ma l PAGE 155 MIXED CHORUS WlIiXT would Durham High do without a few cheery students who could do a bit of singing? Our Music Department, since its organization, has orliered a wonderful opportunity, through the Mixed Chorus, to the boys and girls who are inter, ested in music. lt has been the means of discoverf ing outstanding talent, that otherwise would have been unnoticed. As a result of hne training, a number of former Durham High students have reached great heights in the music world, so great in fact that we are glad to say they were once students of our school. lt is not so important that the mixed chorus has given recitals for various occasions, nor that many music contests have been won, but that the mem- bers have been taught to sing correctly. Durham fully appreciates the chorus, evidence of which is the recent organization by interested citizens of what is known as the Twaddell Student Loan Fund. lt was a source of great satisfaction to us that Lucielle Browning, a former student of Dura ham High, who is now a member of the Metroa politan Opera, gave a recital in Durham to help accumulate money for the fund.

This concert proved to be one of the most enjoyed features of year's entertainments. bflE1XIBIi as IN CZIIUIR Each year some trip is taken: and for many years the annual spring trip to the contest held in Greensboro has been an enjoyable event. XVe were most fortunate this year in being asked to represent our state at the annual Choral Association Convenf tion in St. Louis, Missouri. However, alter con- sidering all angles, it seemed unwise to undertake it. VVe derived some consolation, nevertheless, over the thoughts of participating in the same conven- tion next year in another city. One ol the outstanding virtues of Fessor.', as he is so affectionately called, is his personal appeal to the students. This has made it possible for his pupils to attain the unusual success that is so ob- vious to the public. For a while we thought that Fessor was going to leave us, but we still have him and we intend to do all that is possible to keep him. He has ac- complished much in the past and present, and we are sure that the future will bring more succcess and happiness to him. g 1 BOYS' CHf ilil'S lim! rote: IJ. Bishop. A. Ruse, ll. Silver, -l.

FOUR HUNDRED AND if1ifTY of those boys and girls who can add rows of Figures in bookkeeping, play on a typewriter, and produce a jumble of queer forms, called shorthand, were members of the Com, mercial Club. The club in its monthly meetings offered good entertainment for these students, kept them in touch with the entire department, and aroused their interest in their work. The annual banquet was the highlight of the year. All Commercial students and interested alumni were invited to have a good time and to hear an outstanding guest speaker. The name of this club brings to mind always the thought of the excellent programs for which it is so well known throughout the school. Each of the twenty-live commercial classes elected one representative to the Commercial Club Cabinet, which was the governing body of the en- tire club. It also served as an agency to contact all the club members about important matters so that special meetings of the entire club were unneces- sary. The outstanding fall event of the club's calendar was the Coroso Play, jointly produced by this or- ganization and the Coop Class. These monthly get-togethers, spiced with the best in entertainment, have made the students not only more interested in their club, but also more eager to continue their work after a period of relaxation and fun.

Miss Viittzixm Hoiaooon k'Resolved, That a brunette boy is more popular than a blonde. This query created uniuch ado about nothing among the Athenian debaters at a meeting held early in the season, but it served its purpose to train in public speaking. Other contests, including debates on more serious subjects. aroused interest among the students. In one instance each girl attempted to give the Htallest story that she had ever heard, and the members voted on the best story. These ideas served to bring out each girlis personality, initiative, versatility. and talent. Believing that Hacconiplislnnent is the lirst step to success. the members tried to develop their tal- ents, poise, and public speaking ability by self- expression at every opportunity, speaking either temporaneously or on assigned topics. Association with each other at socials and at the rather informal meetings was the means ot' forming many lasting friendships. No formal routine was carried out in the regular society meetings. and an ever-existing spirit of liriendship was outstanding at all times. The welcome party at Duke Park for the nexv members and a party in the spring con- stituted the social activities. As a reward Ivor unusual and outstanding work for three years, the best qualified girl each year re- ceives a gold letter certilicate. incsi' sigmn s'i'i.R f.JIflfIl'l its si crown si-ixn-.s'i'i,it Stella Yearxvood l,I'l',Clvlll'llf liorothv Stallings l7oi'otliy Stallings . . . . , l'1itr-l'1'1'.v1'zf1'11l lletty .Xnn Hall Mildred VVeatherspuon . , Set'r1'lf11'y-'l'l'z'i1s'111'1'f' . . ,Alice Collins iuxoa not Fi'r.rt wore: l'resiflenl, llelen Thompsong Vice-l'resident, Doris Durhaing Vice-l'resicleiit.

Miss Louisa WATKINS BANG! BANG! 'gThe meeting will please come to orderf, With these familiar words Helen Thomp- son, newly-elected president of the Lila Markham Brogden Literary Society, looked over the speaker's stand at a disorderly group of girls, immediately every girl sat up, attentive, ears pricked, eager to hear the program. Such was the beginning of the twelfth year ol' the Brogden Society. The program committee headed by Peggy Pur- year, started the year right by planning programs not only to interest and entertain, but also to de- velop and train the talents ot the members. Since every girl was given an opportunity to be on at least one program, many new talents were dis- covered. New members were not initiated until February when Doris Durham, vice-president for the second semester, planned a Valentine initiation party which was a mixture of fun and dignity. Games and contests appropriate for this season were played by the new members, while the old members had the advantage of watching and laughing at their blunders. Each year Mrs. Brogden presents a medal to the most outstanding girl in the club's activities. The society is always represented in the annual high school recitation contest. The girls are proud of Helen Thompson, who won second place last year. PAGE 162 , . , . , X I IIRKJHIJICX I.I'I'ICIQ.XRY SUl'IIC'l'Y f l.I',fl 1'u'zI'5 NI. Ifllqxlzxy. Ii. I'zIl'pu1u'l'.

I1l11-1.1Ps Wrrn THREE members on the winning Aycock De- bate Team, and another member in the linals ol' the Annual Declamation contest, the Blackwell Literary Society has again kept up the good Work of the past thirty yearsg and it looks as it this high standard will be as noteworthy in the future. liut without the human side, lite would be very dull, and so the society, besides its more serious activities, has this year entered on a program that provides the lighter side of life. Every meeting, the program contains a humorist, who draws from his audience a combination of guffaws and chuckles that cause the second floor to resound. Besides this, the programs are enlivened by hu- morous debates, among which was 'lliesolvedz That woman's place is in the home, and others. At the end ol the year, the society awards to one member lrom the group the title of most valuable member. The name of the winner is engraved on a plaque exhibited in the oHice. 01117141 RS ifncsw' 'I'LRAi P1't flitff'lIf . , .Blackwell lirogden lf'ir'e-l'resi1lw1t .. . Kent lioutwell Sun-Iiu'y .

Miss IZFLLE T'l.XINIl I'ON BELIEVINC that the motto-'LQui non prolicit, deli- icit,', i.e. He who accomplishes nothing, fails -is far more than ordinary words, the Southgate Liter- ary Society girls constantly strive for proficiency in public speaking and a broader knowledge of cur- rent literary subjects. This aim has produced a growing, ever-improv- ing society that is worthy ol' the man for whom it was named almost a decade ago. In characterizing Mr. Southgate, the late Dr. Boyd of Duke Univer- sity said: HIZIIHCS ll. Southgate, a type ol' that class of young men who looked to the future rather than the past, a dreamer who had visions of a bet- ter social order, always independent in his political thought, ever lending his services to all good causes, and persistently interested in humanity. The adviser of this club, Miss Belle Hampton, has been an important factor in its rapid progress. She has shown the girls the necessity of self-expres- sion and poise both in school and outside. With these as the main objectives of the club, the pro- gram committees have planned entertaining, in- structive programs that orler the members an op- portunity to become poised, expressive speakers. Close association with each other in the club was the means ol liorming lasting friendships among the society sisters. These girls of the Southgate Lit- erary Society are not in it merely for a way to pass time, but for the benefit they receive from an alert society that is ever accomplishing something worth- while. i-iizsr SIAII si LR Oi i ici its si izovn shui-.s'1'ER Mozelle Bridges I'rr'.-'1'tfr'r1f Theresa King Theresa King, . . . l'ftz'-l'1'eflirfm1f , .NVilina Mullerschoen Iitlitli lleavers. .

The dripping was Nancy Newsom's tears as they fell to the floor, the bangs, a 'lquiet summer day. But despite the tragic sounds, an entire audience of girls was convulsed in laughter as the Cornelia Spencer Literary So- ciety presented a pantomime at the annual Brogden-Spencer meeting. Other regular programs included plays, debates, talks, recitations, and musical solos. On one program there was Fm'-tl-I7lyI11'. Mary lane Edwards directed a cast of club girls in a play of that name. When exams were just around the corner, Margaret Mc- Cracken gave a useful and mirthful talk on 'lHow to Ap- proach Exams. The most outstanding remark in her talk was, 'Study your subjects from day to day, as the year goes by, and don't cram the night before an exam. Sound advice, the girls agreed, but a dilhcult task. This society employed a unique method for improving the social manners of the members. This method was The QlIF.t'fI.OlI Haxhan oral questionnaire with one girl asking the others certain questions. One question was, If a boy took you to a dance, deserted you at the door, and left you to shift for yourself until time to leave, would you let him take you home, go home with another boy, or call a taxi? Such questions make a girl feel more at ease in an ein- lrarrassing situation since she has thought out a solution before. The music went round and round when the club quartet. composed of Nancy Newsom, Nancy Carver, Marv Taylor, and Mary Moore Swindell, got in the right mood to sing the popular song of the day. Geraldine Vickers, also, frequently played the girls' favorite numbers of swing, and what have you. To collect the dues more quickly and more efliciently the treasurer appointed an assistant lrom each class, who col- lected the dues from the girls in her class. .Ks the May Day evercise was being given this year, Core nelia Spencer members could look with iustiliable pride at the May Queen and the Maid of llonor, lilsie Broocks and lilizabc-th Christian, respectively-both society members. Ilesiring to do something' for the school as a society, the girls decided to invite an outstanding speaker for a special program in the school auditorium.

XRIHICHARD HAX'E Yot' EVER jumped into a fake swimming pool blindfolded, pushed peanuts across the lloor with your nose, eaten raw oysters with macaroni and castor oil, or attempted to dress in the dark? If you have, you can understand the straining ordeals that the prospective members of the lulian S. Carr Literary Society Went through before they could be- come full-fledged members. After their initiation these new members increased the total enrollment to fifty members. The first thing that claimed the boys' attention was their constitution. To meet the needs of a growing society, they spent a great deal of time revising and amending it. Their goal was to acquaint themselves with the art of parliamentary procedure and to become more experienced in standing before an audience and speaking their own thoughts. They have at- tained these goals by varied programs, consisting of debates, talks, and round table discussions on in- teresting news, the majority concerning athletics and world alliairs. Two outstanding debates given this year were: Resolved, That the United States army should be increased,'i and Resolved, That semester examina- tions in high school should be eliminated. These questions not only aroused interest among the members, but served as a method of training the participants into more skillful public speakers. iuxsr si.xir.sTi-it Oi 1-ici its si eoxtx si xii sri ia XValton Pedersen , l'rfu'izz'f11f . .

FREEIXIAN UROMEO and Iuliet Up-to-Dateu is quite a possible version of Shakespeare,s famous play, but one sel- dom sees it with an entire cast of boys. The Page Literary Society presented this play at its annual banquet this year. The cast was made up of David Hubbell, as Iuliet, Ned Newsom, as Romeo, and jimmy Changaris, as Iuliet,s father. Albert Dunn directed this skit. Dr. Clement Vollmer of the German department of Duke University was the guest speaker. The banquet program included toasts to the mothers. the school, and Walter Hines Page, for whom the society is named. The probationers of a year for- mally took the pledge and were admitted to the society. The regular club programs were centered on those subjects that concerned or interested the mem- bers. Every boy was given an opportunity to be on several programs in order that each might achieve the polish and ease in public speaking and the knowledge of parliamentary procedure that Mr. Page possessed. Debates, reports, talks, and decla- mations took an important part on the programs. One outstanding talk was on My Impressions of Katherine Hepburn by Claude Adams who saw and talked to the famous actress during her visit in Durham. The reasons for the Page Society's obvious suc- cess have been the similar interests and ideas of the boys, their bond of friendship, and the work of two couldn't be betterw advisers, Miss Herr and Mr. Freeman. Each year the name of the boy who has rendered the most outstanding service to the school and to the society is engraved on the Page cup.

HENRY LITERARY SOCIETY We go to seek on many roads. f1dzf1'5er.v.' hlus. li. S. SXVINDELL, Miss Lrev TIIOLIPSKJN WITH AN INCREASE of two hundred per cent in mem- bers, the O. Henry Literary Society rose to the peak of its success this year. This large membership necessitated the division of the society into two parts with Mrs. Swindell and Miss Thompson ada visers. The main objective of the O. Henry is to create a democratic spirit in the minds of all the girls as they go to seek in many roads while living up to the club motto. The varied programs given dur- ing the year have required the initiative and co, operation of each member. This has helped won- derfully toward the attainment of their goal. One ofthe most interesting programs given during thc year was the one honoring Mrs. Swindell. Each member proved her love and appreciation for what Mrs. Swindell and her work in the society had meant, by short talks, original poems, and a gift from the entire society. The O. Henry girls celebrated this year an affair that they hope to make an annual occurrence-a Mother-Daughter banquet-the first of its kind ever to be held in Durham High. The girls favored green for their society color and an owl for their symbol. A new constitution was also written and adopted by the members. Each year Mrs. Swindell gives the I. D. Hamlin Medal, in honor of her father, to the senior who has been of greatest service to the society for a period of three years. PAGE 172 U, IIICNRY SU1'lliTY lfi .vt Iwmx' II. llmivcil. N.

B. lx'lASON SINCE the beginning of time art has had an impor- tant place in the surroundings of man. lt has always been an intimate part of everyday life, and will continue as such through the years. These considerations give us a keener apprecia- tion of our line Art Department and of Mrs. Ma- son, who is doing so much toward teaching us art appreciation as well as the actual Work of carving, sketching, poster-making, sculpturing, and paint- ing. The Art Club is just one part of the Depart- ment, in which the members may lind enjoyment of expression without the routine oli a daily class period. The club ollers a means for the artistically talented students to develop their abilities, and it encourages the members to work toward creating beautiful surroundings for the school, the commu- nity, and the home. Through the effort of Mrs. Mason and the art students, the art room has been made the most at- tractive one in school. The most significant ob- jective of the year has been the decoration of more classrooms. Students realize that beautiful sur- roundings help to relieve the monotony of class- room Work. A full schedule with many interesting programs iilled the year's calendar. Probably the most in- structive programs were those during which Mrs. Lance spoke to us on K'Carolina Craftsf, and Miss Dunne tallied to us on j'The Art of WC3N'lllg.,, Most of the remaining programs were used to further our experience in the various features of art.

Mas. ISHLLE C. ci!-IULSUN Fueianoixt of speech is an American rightg in the South it is an institution. To be able to analyze a subject, to hnd facts on both sides of an issue, to organize facts thus found and. by thinking them through, arrive at a sane conclusion, is a goal ar- dearly sought hy the boys of the Current Events Club. Members of this Hfor boys only club ap- proximate their obiectives by programs made up of round-table discussions of world, national. state, and community affairs. Frequently the boys en- gage in debates and other socialized pastimes which claim their interests. Such activities tend to develop their talents, formulate wholesome habits, worthy standards of living. and citizenship. The we spirit prevails, and social efhciencyl' has definite part in our philosophy of life. Mrs. Belle C. Cholson fbetter known to us all as good ole Ma j is organizer and adviser of the club.

PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB f1a'z11'sc1'.' ERNEST C. HEs'rER '4Ho1.D it just a minute, please. Now smile, and watch the birdie. The camera clicked. lt was just another one of the many cameras that were click- ing around D. H. S. in the spring. And those words were often uttered by the youthful photog- raphers. The Photography Club, organized in the fall of this year, was headed by one of Durham High's best photographers, Walter Shaekleford. Working for new ellects in their pictures, the members of the club experimented with candid cameras and time exposures. The study of develop- ing and printing pictures was extensively taken up in the meetings. Additional information about va- rious phases ofthe work and results of experiments were presented on the programs. Mr. Hester, as faculty adviser, supervised the or- ganization of the newest club in D. H. S. He was always prepared and willing to olfer helpful sug- gestions to the amateur photographers. The club members spent much of their time in the spring taking snapshots of school life for the Mussewoieri and at the same time competing for the prize--a yearbook-for the best set of ten snap- shots. Keen competition among the students re- sulted in a better type of pictures being turned in. This method of serving other school organiza- tions and at the same time gaining experience in photography is one of the qualities that makes the Camera Club a worth-while activity. Thus, the Photography Club promises to be one of the most outstanding organizations of Durham High. PAGE 176 I 1 l I'1r.vl rfmu' M. I.. Willizuns, NI, Hilliziuis. lt. I.uug. M. Iluglics, If..

TH li LIBRARY COUNCIL AllZfli561'.' Miss F1-oiz1NE I.i2WTEa XVEARY TE.-XCIIERS laid aside their stacks of exam papers on the last day of semester examinations in Ianuary for an hour of relaxation at the Library Council Tea. Away from those blue books that held the destiny ol' so many students, the teachers were given a chance to become acquainted with the new books the library had just received. Books arranged in groups, according to subjects, were exhibited with class projects under whose classilication they belonged. Miss I.ewtcr, the Ii- brarian, assisted by Miss VVilson, Mrs. Svvindell, and Mrs. Mason, served punch and cookies to the guests. Those who are acquainted with the library vvorli realize that giving teas is not all the Work of the Council. It is a club organized lor service and is composed of volunteers who give an average of one period daily to library work. The meetings, held twice each month, are devoted to the study of li- brary instructions, reports on activities of other school libraries, discussions of ways to improve our library, and literary talks. The students who spend a period daily behind the desk assist in circulation, shelving, desk ivorlc, management of overdues, appearance of the library room, and all the other work of a librarian. lust as 'gthe show must go on, so the library must go on in its service to an average of six hundred students dailyg and certainly it would be almost impossible for the library to function smoothly without an elicient Council.

NATURE STUDY CLUB Adzffselx' Miss DoRoTiiv WII.soN WHAT is the value of current scientific developf ments upon our everyday living? The various aspects of this question have provided abundant material for a full and varied program of club acf tivities during the year. Members of the Nature Study Club give instruc- tive reports on recent scientihc discoveries Out- side speakers were procured for special highlight programs. Mr. R. H. Frisbee of Duke University gave an illustrated talk on the care and making of aquariumsg and as a result, the members showed personal interest in this phase of study. Prohting by other students' experiences was one of the main ways of learning in this work. For example, when aquariums were made by some, with advice from Miss Wilson, the other students received valuable information that might have helped them in solving their problems along this line. Miss Wilson performed several mental telepathy experiments. This subject aroused keen interest be- cause of its widespread wonders. liach member found out whether she possessed any unseen powers of the mind. The joint meeting with the PhyfChem club prof vided informing and interesting matter for study in the field of electricity. Professor Charles Ed. wards of the Physics Department of Duke Uni- versity gave an exhibition on electricityg these real examples revealed more clearly to the student the problem and its results. A missionary to India, Mrs. C. li. Parker, gave a talk on the customs of the people of lndia, and the development of science there. itiitsr sixn-,sri-it Uifmeirizs sieoxn SEN!!-STER Martha Dixon ,... . ,, . .Pl'l'.i'III!!'lIf. , ,.......

Lees do that scene once againlu This is what one would probably hear if, in passing, he happened to look into the auditorium ol' Durham High School late after school. The scene, though seeming to be one ol' terrible disorder, really sigf nilies hard and intensive work. Director, actors, and stage hands scamper back and forth attending to their manifold affairs. Acting, however, is not the only high-spot stressed in the Mimics Dramatic Club. Make-up, lighting and scenery effect, advertising, and pub- licity are also emphasized. The meetings oli the club are held semrmonthly, one of which is held jointly with the co-dramatic club, the Mummers. During the year several interesting comedies were given lor the benelit ol' the school, part ol' the proceeds ol which went to the club. Among the presentations Were: HHaIlowelen l lusband Stilfflllff Anne Dubs and Ioseph lieamang ufln the Park Benelli' starring Iimmy Crews and Lucie O'l3rier1. The Gypsyf, Iieaturing Doris VVoods and David Hubliell, was entered in the State Playmaliers Con- fCSt. Un the whole the Mimies Club can count this, its second year, very successful indeed. f,I'l-ICLRS I'rf'.vnff21f . . . . . . , Hill Secman Vin'-l'rriv1'rl'f'11z , . , Iiinniy Changaris Scr'1'f'1i11 v .. .

W.Nl.SER 'LCt'itsEs, What a Nightln There is really no need for excitement, for that is only the name of the melodrama with which the Mummers Cluh started off this year's productions. This play gave Durham High some idea ol' what its own students were capahle of producing. The receipts from this program were used to start a dramatic lihrary lior the club, ln the fall new memhers from the club were seen going around the school wearing old-fashioned sun bonnets, asking teachers to autograph hard-hoiled eggs, etc. These comical-looking hoys and girls were merely enduring an annual ohservance- initiation. At Christmas a beautiful pageant was given to the entire student hody. It was most effective, he- ing significant in ali of its simplicity and stateliness. The outstanding event ol' the spring was the presentation of A Message from lihutuf' This PAGE 181 play was a tragedy produced under the direction ol' R. C. VValser, adviser and originator ol' the Mum, mers Cluh. This production won first place in the district contest at Raleigh: and in the State contest held later in Chapel Hill it placed second. ln the same contest the Mummers also sponsored an original play, Harvard vs. Iailf' written hy Doris Nachamson, a Mimic. This comedy was seleced as one of two original plays hy high school students to he given at the State Dramatic Festival held at Chapel Hill early in the spring. Certainly this state recognition was another proof that this iogjfkgli dramatic group was one of the most out, standing in North Carolina. Oi i it-i as l'rc'.i'f1lw11 , . . . , . . . .

This organization is a part of the Durham Needlework Guild which is made up ol interested Durham women. Its pur- pose is to collect money and clothing for the needy children of Durham. The D. H. S. division con- tributes money and garments for children under six years of age. Nearly every girl in the school joined this worthy organization. The membership reached its highest peak this year, with a total of four hundred ninety- live girls joining. lly contributing two articles of clothing each, the girls turned in one thousand fourteen articles. The boys are asked to contrihute money for the shoe fund every year. They hecome known as 'lmoncy members when they give any amount. The three hundred seven money members gave twenty-nine dollars this fall toward purchasing shoes for children under six. The organization was divided into groups of eleven, one director and ten memhers. The director was responsihle for collecting and identifying two garments from each girl on her list.

STEXVART Twurvrv vot'Ne se1EN'r1s'rs, eager to learn how to separate atoms et cetera, made up the membership of the Phy-Chem Club. Under the direction of Mr. li. G.. Stewart, faculty adviser, these enthusiastic PhyfChemists worked very hard in their quest of the unknown. Exper- iments were conducted at the meetings and also results of individual experiments outside of meet- ings were presented on the programs. One group of ardent 'ithirsters after knowledge made an intensive study of the telescope and radio. The preparation and use of invisible ink, that so often ballles the detectives in our comic strips, was thoroughly investigated and discussed this year. Outside speakers who are connected with or in- terested in science were invited as guest speakers to some of the meetings. Professor Edwards of Duke University showed the Phy-Chemists and their visitors, the Nature Study girls, how to play with the two hundred thousand volts of electricity from the Tesla coil, and how to break up atoms into six different parts. The effect of color in motion pictures and glass etchings were some of the phenomona demon- strated by the group this year. Because of his interesting contribution, the club voted to make Mr. Paul Derr, a practice teacher from Duke, an honorary member. Whether the boys enter into science as their life's work, make it a hobby, or drop it, their experience in the Phy-Chem Club has been one that will make all scientific development of interest to them.

GIRLS' MONOGRAM CLUB Tlili Gnus MoNoczRAixr QILLTB was organized as a successor to the old North Carolina Girls' Athletic Association which is no longer in existence. TliE:: year, under the able leadership ol' Miss Olive Erown, a new constitution following closely that of the old U. A. A. was drawn up and adopted unanimously by the club. Because of the interest and cooperation of the girl athletes, the second year of function has been one ot rapid progress. The purposes of the club, as stated in the constik tution, are: to sponsor and promote a program ol' athletics that will be interesting, stimulating, and suitable for the high school girls, to promote com- petition that stresses enjoyment of sports and the development of sportsmanship and characterg to encourage leadership through student management. Henri Etta Mosely, president of the group, Was a PARG 18 great help in seeing that each member did her part towards realizing this goal. She was assisted in her duties hy Doris Price as vice-president, and Mary Taylor as secretary-treasurer. Membership to the club is open only to those who have earned enough points to win a school letter. Higher honors such as the state monograms and state pins which require lour hundred and eight hundred points respectively, may be earned by attending practices, participating in intramural games, and being elected to the honorary varsity. There are seven members of the organization who have received their state letters for having earned four hundred points or more. These girls are Frances Alexander, Doris Nachamson, Doris Price, Marjorie Rose, Mary Taylor, Mary Frances Young, and Edith Welsh. 8 1 XIR LThe Messengerw Durham High School Durham, North Carolina Gentlemen: The Durham Monarch Club has sponsored for four years a series of debates in the county high schools, which has contributed to a considerable increase in in- terest on the part of the school people and the various communities affected. The Durham Monarch Club sponsored this year for the lirst time a spelling contest for the nine junior high schools of the city and county, which were broadcast over the local radio station. These contests lasted over a period ol' ten weeks. Recognition will be given to the winning schools by the awarding ot suitable trophies, and the ten best spellers will be given a trip to New York. The Durham Monarch Club sponsors the Iunior Mon- arch Club, a club consisting of about htty underprivileged boys whose memberships are paid in the Y. M. C. A. by the members ol' the club. The members ot the club act as advisers and the Y. M. C. A. provides the supervision of the club. The Durham Monarch Club through its Objectives Committee cooperates with graduates of orphanages from Durham County in securing positions of employment for them atter they are graduated from the various or- phanages of the state. The Durham Monarch Club contributes to all worth- while activities ot various social agencies of the city as a club and as individual members. Sincerely yours, MEIKIKILL P. KNIGHT, Pre.c1'de1zz.

FOOTBALL Cowen Svkias and his assistants had the tremendous ioh this year of forming a foothall team around two lettermen, co-captains Kent lioutwell and George Spransy. The team, having lost nine reg- ulars through graduation, was almost entirely com- posed of sophomores with very little actual game experience. However, there was a fairly good showing in the First game with Oxford which was taken to the tune of a I4-0 count at the Durham Athletic Park. The next Friday the season really got under way when the Greensboro gridders in- vaded the l3ulldog's stamping ground all set to play off the 6,6 tie of last year. The locals stood the test hy playing undoubtedly their hest game of the year in taking the invaders 14-o. They staved off an air attack that might easily have proved fatal. The Bulldogs journeyed to Wilmington where they were again victorious in a fast moving zo-o contest. The following Friday a strong Wilson aggregation held the locals to a disappointing scoreless tie on the home field. So far this was the only mar on a perfect record for Coach Paul Sykes' team. However there was another disappointment in store the next Friday when at Rocky Mount, the Blackhirds coached hy Emory Adkins, a former Durham High and Duke University athlete, scored on a reverse to take a hearthreaking 6-o decision. lt might he said that the Bulldogs outplayed the highly tooted Mounts and the game wasn't over until the final whistle, for they put all their spirit in it. The next week, Durham had a hreather in prep- aration for the annual Raleigh tussle when they easily trampled a light Fayetteville team zo-o. In this game Coach Sykes cleared the hench hy using the scruhs as well as the varsity, a rare happening after the first two or three games. Durham High settled down for work on Friday, November 13. when they went to Riddick Field and engaged Raleigh High, who hoasted one of the strongest teams in the state. The Bulldogs lost the game 6ko. With practically every memher attending, the stu- dent hody gave its whole-hearted support to the team which proved more than worthy of such hacking. Strong and friendly rivalry was in evi- dence throughout the entire game. This game with Raleigh hrought to a close a most successful season for the Durham High foot- hall team.

BASKETBALL lvxvrifililisii the Eastern and State championships and the South Atlantic tournament was the record set by the 14333 D. ll. S. basketball team, coached by ll. C. Sykes. The locals were undefeated in the twenty-one high and prep school games, averaging ao points as compared to I7 for their opponents. The Bull, dog cagers defeated the Duke freshmen and the Wake Forest freshmen. This is the best record ever made by the Durham lligh School basketball team and will give the future teams a ugoalu to shoot at. The liulldogs opened the Conference schedule by trouncing Goldsboro fl!-13, following this vic- tory witl1 a jlj-IO win over Rocky Mount. The scores ol' the remainder of the games were similar to the first two, the locals always winning with an impressive margin over their opponents. Cap, tain Ruben VVhitlield did an excellent job of lead- ing the Durham team, especially in the South At- lantic tournament when his quick thinking pulled the locals out of trouble more than once. Bob Gantt paced the Bulldogs, scoring attack with Igl points followed closely by Hllonesl' Mc- Kinney with 168. Cedric Loftis, and Fred Moore accounted for 132 and 131 points respectively, while Captain Ruben Whitfield contributed IIS tallies. The following players received letters or stars for outstanding performance on the hardwood: Ruben YVhitl:1eld, '38g Bob Gantt, 740, Fred Moore, '38g Cedric Loltis, T301 Horace McKinney, 'gog Charles Ferrell, '.tog Elliott Puckett, Q83 Garland Loftis, ,403 and Arthur Harris, 38. All players who saw action in either the state or South Atlantic tourna- ments were awarded gold basketballs. PAGE 196 . BASKETBALL LETTERMEN , 4 tb KD . f' tt ,HEX Q' Y lfirxfl ww: lilliutt Puckett.

Pitchers Lefty Barton and Co-Captain Elliott Puckett had their diamond opponents well under control, except for the last three games which were lost. Ioe Durham and Charlie Ferrell did the re- ceiving for the locals, both giving some good ex- hibitions of catching, and also wielding a heavy bat at the plate. Other than Co-Captain Leroy Overman, the entire infield and outfield were formed of new material.

TRACK F1..1s111No style and form in all the meets, the ,355 track team set one of the best records i11 the history of Durham High track. Under the direction of coaches Iohn Woodward and Cliff Baucom, and led by Captain Fred Erwin on the field, many promising athletes were de- veloped. The majority of boys OI1 this year's team were juniors and Sophomores, who should make the 1939 season a11 even more successful season than the past one. Two of our boys placed First in the state meet. Bob Gantt became state champion in the shot put and discus, breaking the record for the former with a distance of 48 feet, 4M iI1ClXCS. He also placed first in the Duke lnvitational meet in the discus and broke the record by six feet. Garland Pendergraft took the other first in the pole vault to become state champion. The IQ38 edition of the Bulldog Track Team exhibited line spirit and cooperation. Although having a long hard schedule, they came through with a good record by winning every dual meet, defeating Greensboro, VVinston-Salem, Lynchburg, and winning the Quadrangular meet with Golds- boro, Sanford, and Chapel Hill. The team won honors in the Duke Invitational State and Civitan Meets. Coach Woodward said, I can say for both myself and Mr. Baucom that it has been a pleasure to work with such a splendid group of boys, and we are looking forward to a more successful season next year.

TENNIS ALTHOUGH only two players from last yearis crack team were back, Coach Whichard put a capable team on the courts this year. The lettermen, lack Markham and David Silver, played an important part in every match this season. Markham entered the state singles tournament at Chapel Hill, and after playing well to reach the semi-Finals, was de- feated there by Moyer Hendrix, of Winston-Salem, who won the title. However, jack has defeated Freeman of Rocky Mount, the other finalist. The doubles team, David Silver and Melvin Mayes, was defeated in the quarter-finals by Hendrix and his doubles partner, Haltwanger, who also eopped the doubles crown. Percy Ashby and David Silver were elected co- captains of the team this year. Both have been out- standing players on the courts all season. Guy Andrews, a sophomore, served as manager, arranging the schedule and matches. The squad was composed of seniors, Percy Ashby, David Silver, Philip Corbin, and Melvin Mayes, luniors, lack Markam, Ran Few, and David Hubbell, and Sophomores, Tom Huckabee, Frank Campbell, and Hugh Curtis. Fred Moore, Norman Herndon, and Louis Featherstone also took part in dual meets. Only Chapel Hill, by a score of 7-2, defeated Durham this year. However, Chapel Hill was de- feated 5-4 in a return match. The team also de- feated Burlington 9-o and 941, Roxboro 8-1, Rocky Mount 9-og and Raleigh 9-o and 9-o. PAGE 202 I 1'rxt rrmu' J. Dennis. E.

BOXING DURHAM HICH,S IQ37-38 boxing team, although presscd for space in which to hold daily workouts, ended a hard fought season with an impressive ex- hibition of pugilism, losing a close 5-4 decision to Raleigh, the state champions. The Bulldog glove throwers were forced to work out either in the shower room, city hall, or dressing room, and as a result were handicapped from the beginning. Nevertheless, Coach Wzidsworth trained his proteges well, and as a result, the locals de- feated their first opponents, Burlington, 592-zw. The Durham sluggers lost the next four matches, all by close scores, but came back strong to win their next two engagements, trouncing Fayetteville and Hargrave. Albert Rose, ,38, captained the locals, and had the best percentage of wins and losses, defeating six opponents, while losing two and fighting one match to a draw. Albert Moneyhan also had a good percentage, winning six and losing three. The following boys received letters for their serv- ices on the team this year: Capt. Albert Rose, Al- bert Moneyhan, Edgar Council, D. E. Ward, Winifred Norris, Ralph Knight, Iohn Sink, and lohn Dennis.

This year ap- proximately two hundred girls took part in sports including volleyball, basketball, life-saving, tennis, hiking, and bicycle riding, sponsored by Miss Olive Brown, girls' athletic director. lntramural games were the main feature of this year's program. These games played among the gym class teams enabled many girls who could not participate in sports after school to obtain recreation during ac- tivity and lunch periods. X'YOI-LliYBAI.I., the first sport of the year, saw forty- hve girls in the gym practicing in order to win the championship. The sophomores succeeded in out- playing their opponents in four of the live games played. Marjorie Rose was the student manager.

HIKING was one of the enjoyable sports among the girls and was popular the year round. To conf duet the hikes, there were special hiking leaders. It was required that there be a leader on each hike and the group hike at least three miles to receive credit. A point per mile was given toward the school letter. The hiking leaders were Frances Alexander, Marjorie Rose, Clyde Whitley. Mary F. Young, lWartha Worth, and Zada Nicholson. Edith Welsh was the student manager. BICYCLE RIDING was introduced into the girls' athletic program and became very popular. As in hiking, special leaders were chosen. A point for every two miles was given toward the school letter. The bicycling leaders were Marjorie Rose, Frances Alexander, Doris Nachamson, Dorothy Fogleman, Mary Taylor, and Mary F. Young. Anne Powell was student manager. TENNIS was, without a doubt, the most popular sport among the girls, with about sixty girls enter- ing the tournaments. There were three tourna- ments: the girls' singles, girls' doubles, and lHiXCd doubles. The mixed doubles tournament was won by Mary F. Young and Ran Few, who defeated Bill Poe and Clyde Whitley in the Hnals. The ten- nis varsity was composed of the following girls: Peggy King, 1393 Carmen Lloyd, ,383 Hannah Bright, 'ggg Vada Nicholson, 739, Zada Nicholson, '39, Martha Worth, ,3Q, and Mary F. Young, 339.

The leader, from her unquestioned place at the head, held up the carefully laid plans which were drawn otit as only she could draw them, for she was a past master of situations like this. Her brain was brilliant and her followers listened eagerly while the tantalizing minutes dragged slowly on for your uninitiaied scribe. The plot thickened, for time was grow- ing shorter and shorter. Suddenly a shrill ear-splitting sound shocked the shudder- ing souls into swift secession from the silent room. the bell at last had rung- Miss VVatkins' algebra class had been dismissed. TRUCK TEAM TAKES TRIP TO TARBORO D. H. S.'s mighty truck team yesterday wiped Tarboro completely off the map when they won their annual meet by a score of oo to zo. The only unexpected happening was when Gohbtly Pantt, small sophomore. actually won a place in the ping-pong ball throwing contest. With a mighty display of strength Pantt threw the pill a distance of 6 feet IW inches for a new school record. In the other events Weed Irwing won the to foot cross-country with a time of 5 minutes flat. law-Urge Whatkins won the high hurdles for the low-we forgot to measure? and VVart Hittington was s'ill in front at the 77lfa, mile mark in the so mile dash. In the field events, I-Iasslers Vender- graft and Soyles won first and second place respectively in the low jump, Ven- dergraft broke the school record by go- ing under the bar at 3 inches. while Soyles was close behind with Northgate Bones received first place in the hole vault by digging a hole 6 feet deep in the sawdust pit, while Hershey Pashby jumped himself into a first place in the hop-skotch game.
