Senior Class The senior class started the year with election ot' officers, conducted by the Stu- dent Uouucil. ln the race for president, Harvey Benn defeated Bill Alexander, who automatically became vice-president. Kenneth 'llurner was elected secretary and l'larl Jones won the treasurer's job. The class received a blow when one of its members, Leone Lee, was killed in an automobile accident on December 1. During the entire year the main topic of discussion was the public-address sys- tem which the classes of 1941, 1942, and 1943 had voted to give tl1e school as their class gift but which had not been in- PAGH19 stalled due to a shortage of materials. After much argument as to whether to put in a possibly inadequate system or to keep the money until proper equip- ment could be purchased, the class voted to invest the money, about 512175, in U. S. 1Var Bonds for the duration. The outstanding' social events of the year were the Junior-Senior Social Hlld Senior Play. 'llom flranford and Dot Murray were elected representative boy and girl of the S0l1l0l' class. At the next-to-last class meeting it was decided to have a class reunion in tive years. President Renn appointed a committee to arrange for the meeting. Alfred Adams Co-op Class 4, Connnercial Club 2, Art Club 4, Baseball 2, 3, 4, Monogram Club 3, 4.

Election of officers, the Junior-Senior Social, and the buying' of l'nited States YVar Bonds featured the activities of the junior class this year. After the election of Mack Hales as presi- dent, Ralph Rogers as vice-president, Anne Stapleford as secretary, and Tommy Fowler as treasurer, the promotion of Hales to the senior class automatically made Rogers presi- dent.-.V To fill the vacancy of vice-president, Jake VVoodall was elected as Rogers' successor. XVith Miss Brown Phillips and YV. H. Cohle as facility advisers, the annual Junior-Senior Social was held on March 27. The following committees planned the evening s fun for the junior and senior classes: I,C'C'0l'fIf'1'07'lSi chair- men, Carolyn Hooper, J.

VVho were the originators ot the Defense Bond buying plan which every class in Dur- ham High has since adopted L? NVho carried out the movement to make Durham High war- minded? Vllho were the prime movers in the school HSalvage tor Victory campaign! Yes, you ,ve guessed it-the Sophomoresl The Class of '44 proposed buying Govern- ment Defense Bonds, which will be used, after the war is over. for a Public Address System in the school, and carried out this idea by purchasing two hundred dollars' worth. The Sophomores started the drive to make the stu- dents of D. II. S. more war-minded, and mate- rially aided our war ettort by collecting scrap paper. ln no other class meetings in the school was more spirit and enthusiasm shown than in 1 those ot' the Sophomorcs. Although sup- posedly the greenest and most inexperienced class in IJ. ll. S., the Sophomores gave them- selves wholeheartedly to all school projects, and distinguished themselves by perseverance in putting through what they started. The Flass of '44 is not lacking in talent, he it on the field or in the classroom. Some examples? Take Charlie Brewer. lf you had seen him breaking the tape on the track. or skirting the line for a first down, you would understand-even if you harln't already seen him gracefully presiding at the Sophomore Class meetings. And so, you could go on naming them- lowly'l Sophomores, but worthy ID. H. S. members. PAGE 64 Sophomores HOME ROOMS 4A1 AND 4A2 First row: N. Boyd. L. Capps. M. Blanchard. E. Byrd, L. Brantley. L.

At bi-monthly meetings representatives from the twenty-nine home rooms assemble and discuss problems involving the better- ment ot the school. The duties of these rep- resentatives are to bring questions before the Council, carry news of the meetings to their respective home rooms, and serve on the lunch line patrol. Acting under an amendment to the consti- tution of the Council, the elections ot the senior, junior, and sophomore class oflicers are supervised by the Uonncil, are also the election of the Fonncil officers themselves. W A: , . Among the projects of the group were: helping along the annual Il1'-lfoclfcf-Athletic drive. supervising the lunch line, performing various hall patrol duties, aiding in the Parent- 'Feachers Association membership drive, and sponsoring Friday night socials for the stu- dent body. Also the council was represented at the North Carolina Student Council Fon- gress in Uharlotte and the Social Standards Vonference in Burlington. Mrs. Richardson, C'ouncil adviser, 'l'om Cranford, president, 'Ralph Rogers, and Fred Isaacs attended the l'harlotte meeting. The Burlington conven- tion had as its delegates f'ranford and Ben- son Mct'utcheon.

Nearly every senior buys one and tries to gret as many friends as he can to autograph their pictures. l'nderm-lassmen, too. take pride in their pie- tnres and treinblingly approach the proud and liauglity seniors, hoping to obtain their signatures to make their yearbook glow with the proud names. ln spite of nulnerous handicaps brought about by the war, the AIESSENGER staff has tried to create a book more varied and inter- esting than ever before. It is a tremendous job, and the success or failure of the under- taking: can only be dem-ided by you. If you are pleased with the 1942 MEissi+:NLn5H, it is a suct-ess.

Through the liberal use of pictures, numerous features about students tdlld teach- ers, Ellld through the general news articles, the stat? provided wide coverage of all phases of school activities. Despite many restrictions which naturally prohibit student editors from openly speaking their minds in the editorial columns, the Hi- Hoclfet at all times tried to maintain a liberal editorial policy. Instead of the usual con- gratulatory editorials, the editors were not averse to offer constructive criticism wherever they saw tit.

Murphy, director of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association, who came to Durham High for the second time in two years. Amid keen competition, the 1941-42 Hi- Ifoclfcf won medalist rating in the Columbia Scholastic Press Association Contest, and first place rating in the Southern Interscholastic Press Association contest. Results of the Hi- Ror'L'ct's rating in the State Newspaper Con- test will not be announced until next year.

BAITCOM 'l'he Spanish t'lub is the latest organization to join Durham High's varied extraeurrieular program. VVith the addition of Spanish to the curriculum this year the need was felt for a club devoted to developing an interest in the langruagre, and as a result this club was organized under the direction of the Spanish teacher. Mr. t'. R. Baueom. About thirty students from the two Spanish elasses joined. The club met twiee a month, and varied and interesting programs were presented. Since the club was composed of only iirst-year Spanish students Cthere being no sem-ond-year classes this yearl, the e11tire programs eould not be given in Spanish. but the majority of the ganies were played in Spanish. Some of the various programs this year included games. using Spanish numbers and words, and informative talks on Panama, Mexieo, and t'hristmas in Spain.

HUlX1l'IIRIES Le Cercle Francais, which is composed of students. who average AH on French during a semester, had about forty-tive members this year. The club met twice a month with the purpose of creating a better understanding and appreciation of France-its language, people, customs and civilization. Various programs, consisting of puppet shows, games, contests, and short descriptive talks on interesting subjects about historical and current events of France were given at the meetings. llowever, the main feature this year was the mimeographed publication. t'France Libre. Current school news and news about the Free French were featured in this journal. The publication was edited by PAGE 93 Beatrice Gross, who was assisted by W. J. Humphries, club adviser, and several other members. It was distributed to the students of all the French classes. The members also learned popular French songs, some of the more popular of which were HLe Coucou, Alouette,y' Les Croco- diles, and t'La Marseillaisef' Climaxing the activities of the year, the annual picnic was given. Besides eating, the members enjoyed playing different games and singing French songs. The club indeed regretted losing Mr. Hum- phries, who joined the Naval Reserve in March. llowever, Miss Carolyn Latty stepped into his place and finished the year.

PAL: rl 9 6 lub The fi0llllTll'l'l'i2'li t'lub, the largest organiza- tion in the school, is open only to those stu- de11ts who are taking commercial subjects. Its importance is emphasized in the present emergency when there is a great demand for commercial workers ot' all types. So far as is known, not one graduate of the Commercial Department is without work. The excellence of the department is shown by the record set in the state commercial con- test. ln last year's contest, the results of which were announced in late June, Durham High took four individual first places and two team firsts. The total results were: second- year bookkeeping, Sarah Page, first place, Freeman Fulbright, second place, Clara Belle Scott, third place, commercial law, Floyd Jones, first place, Evelyn Katz, third place, general business, Ted Bloom, first place, second-year shorthand,ADor0thy Sugg, second place, first-year bookkeeping, Mary James, first place. Teams Winning state honors were: second- year bookkeeping. first, commercial law, first, general business, second, first-year bookkeep- ing, second, second-year typewriting, second, second-year shorthand, second.

This year's play, Turn to the Rightf' was again directed by Mr. Bailey Hobgood Csee page 1601. The profits, about fifty dollars, were divided between the two organizations equally. The club has charge of one assembly pro- gram each year. This year Dr. D. E. Earn- hardt, pastor of the Calvary Methodist Church, spoke to the Tuesday assembly 011 April 7 in perhaps the best auditorium pro- gram of the year. Dr. Earnhardt mixed laughter and sound advice in palatable pro- portions, a11d everyone left feeling that he had gained much from the interesting address. An unusual club program was a mock wed- ding in which Shirley Harton was the bride and Tom Cranford the groom. A special division of the Commercial t'lub, the Public Speaking Club, is the only organ- ization in Durham High devoted entirely to the development of speaking ability, poise. and coolness on the floor. Its members, also members of the Commercial Club, learn the secrets of clear and fluent self-expression under the direction of W. P. Dillingham. t'oMMi:RC1A1. CLUB Soenoivionns First row: L.

L. 1 HILLII-'S After a preliminary elimination round, de- bating on the subject, Hltesolved, that a union of western hemisphere nations should be estab- lished,'l two atiirmative and two negative debate teams went to Greensboro on Decem- ber 5 for a practice tournament, winning eleven and losing tive debates. A second pre- liminary followed, after which the team was chosen: affirmative, Beatrix Gross and Vllalter Cannon, negative, Robinson Everett and Charles Markham, alternates, Mildred Byers and Frank Pierson. ln the Aycock triangular debates, the affirmative defeated Raleigh 's negative team, but the negative lost to Fayetteville's affirm- ative. thus eliminating the school from further defense of the Avcock cup won last year. Next the team entered the North Carolina Speech and Debate Tournament held at Vlfake Forest College, April 2-4. The debate team won four out of eight contests, with each side taking two and dropping two debates. The affirmative registered wins over NVilson and Charlotte, losing to Greensboro and Fayette- ville, while the negative topped Asheville and Charlotte, bowing to Vlfilson and Fayetteville. ln individual speech contests, Charles Mark- ham, a finalist in declaniation, won the state championship in impromptu speaking. VVal- ter Cannon took the state crown in extempore speaking and also was rated as one of the best ten debaters in the entire tournament. In the annual American Legion oratorical contest, Markham took first place in the school competition, with Cannon in second place, but Clannon won both the county and district con- tests, being eliminated at High Point in the area contest. PAGE 100 ature Stud lub Adviser: Miss DOR0'I'I1Y VVILSON The varied programs of the Nature Study t'lub were planned so as to show the members a few glimpses of the many fields of service into which they may enter. Each member was encouraged to have a scientific project, such as 311 outdoor terrarium, permanent microscope shades, a well-balanced aquarium, the study of pollen, or the growing of flowers with chemicals. Lantern slides on forestry gave the club much information about the great North Carolina forests, while demonstrations showed how to make dish gardens. Especially inter- esting was a talk on the electron microscope, the most powerful detector of minute bodies yet invented. This instrument, by using a stream of electrons instead of light beams, can make visible viruses formerly invisible. A report from the Consumers' Research Laboratories gave the members many tips on where and how to shop for medicines and cos- metics so as to get the best values for the least money. An interesting lecture by a Chinese mis- sionary made the club realize many aspects of life in China. Two picnics gave the mem- bers some fun along with their learning.

But the student body and the teachers cannot appre- ciate their value to library service much as Miss Florine Lewter, the librarian. She alone can testify to what extent the Library Ulub members make the wheels go 'ronnd. Student assistants contribute their time amounting' to about one period per day to the routine work in the library such as circulation, shelving, typing, checking' mail, collecting overdue books and fines, arranging exhibits, filing' and preparing' new books for the shelves. ln addition they learn to use the reference tools in the library such as the card catalog, the arrangement of books on the shelves, the use of encyclopedias and other special reference books, the Readers' Guide, etc., which knowledge helps them in assisting' their fellow students in reference work and in selection of books for pleasure reading. The members of the club volunteer their services to the library because they are inter- ested in library work a possible career, or because they enjoy the work and choose the club as one of their activities. And while ,friving assistance and service to the library and the school. they also receive training' in use of books and in Library Science. The club meets twice each month at which time programs varying from the literary and instructional to the social are enjoyed.

Adrzfscrs: MIss BIARGUERITE HERR, Miss VIRGINIA Hoeooon The members of the Junior Needlework GIIild, an auxiliary of the Durham Needle- work Guild, gathered 1,132 new, warm, use- ful garments for the eleventh ingathering since its founding' iII 1931. The ,qarinents were given to uiiderprivileged children of pre- school age. These garments were displayed at Durham High on October 31, and at the hV?lSlllllQIf0l1 Duke Hotel on Noyeinber -l. The organization meeting was held in Octo- ber in order to discuss the purpose and pro- gram, o't' the -Iunior Guild for the new' members. Jane Watkins, president of the Guild, pre- sided at this meeting. Mrs. ll. t'. llorack, president, and Mrs. J. A. Speed of the Senior Guild spoke. ln November, the forty-tive directors were again guests at the annual tea at the Ilope Valley Country t'lub. At this time. the direc- tors presented u skit, Lest We Forget, PAGE 105 written by Marge Hundley, which dramatized the necessity of the organization. A highlight of this year was the organiza- tion of a Junior Guild in Chapel Ilill by the officers of the 'Durham Junior Needlework Guild directors. ln this meeting the duties of the officers, the kiIIds of garments needed, aIId the purpose of the club were discussed by the girls and by the two advisers, Miss Mar-- ,Cruerite llerr and Miss Virginia Hobgood. The directors chosen from among' tlIe junior and senior members are each responsible for ten other girls and a money member.

Arlriscr: ll. K. COLLINS The Aviation Club, whose main purpose is to further interest and increase knowledge in aircraft, directed its attention this year toward furnishing Durham 's quota of model warplanes for government war purposes. The government supplied the boys with blueprints of current airplanes of the belligerent powers. and asked them to build exact scale model replicas. These miniature planes are to be used for aiding gunners and pilots in recog- nizing friendly and enemy aircraft from a distance. Precise standards had to be fol- lowed, and many models were rejected be- cause of inaccurate dimensions or faulty con- struction. I Official titles were given to those who suc- cessfully completed a specified number and size of airplanes, and certificates of distinction signed by Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox were presented to those who won such titles. Though the productionnof small pursuit ships like the German Messerschmidt l09E, the British HSpitlire,', and the American Bell t'Airacobra, was the most rapid, some ambi- tious builders tackled the huge four-motored bombers, especially the far-famed Boeing ll-1 TE '4Flying Fortress. VVith much satisfactory work completed. Mr. ll. K. Follins, adviser to the club, sent several groups of planes to XVashington. PAGE108 urrent Events Club Aflrisrr: Mus. l5uI.I.If: t'. GIIoI.soN Information please. was the key-note ol' the l'urrent ,Events Vlub this year. At roll- eall every meeting' each member responded to his name with a brief current event or happening: The I11ain body of the program consisted of dist-ussions about the eurrent news. with newspapers. magazines. radio re- ports. pamphlets, iflllll all other available sources ot' news serving the basis. Fre- quent panel groups and several interesting and humorous debates served to promote in- terest and to eneourage every member to express himself fluently and naturally to the group many times during the year. t'Ma, as Mrs. Gholson is affectionately ealled by her students and friends, tried to have the younger boys take as much part in the programs as the seniors. and after an initiation, with the incoming sophomores as the honor Hguests. served to break the ice, the participants were fairly equally distrib- uted among all three classes. On May 27 the club held a pienie at Hollow Rock. Hot dogs and Pepsi's were enjoyed by all. As a finale. at eommeneement a medal was awarded by vote of the club to that senior who had proved llllllSPll: the most outstanding member of the club.

Spirited elections showed an inter- est in practicing self-government. The two presidents, Jean Bagwell for the first semester and Frances Durham for the second, provided leadership in encouraging each member to take part in several programs during the year. In round-table talks the society constitu- tion, school regulations, graduation. student traffic laws, and similar subjects were dis- cussed. Professor Jose Jimenez Borja, con- sultant on education to the government of Peru, spoke to the group at one meeting 011 The Freedom of Peru.

Camp Sacarusa was the scene of the merry-making event. The Blackwell boys had the honor of bei1Ig the tirst literary group to purchase a war bond. Each member contributed thirty cents towards the buying of a 5825 bond, which will be used on maturity to buy a plaque as a memorial to Durham lligh boys killed in the Several distinguished speakers appeared be- fore the group. Especially interesting was Professor Jose Jimenez Borja, professor of education at San Mario University in llima, Peru, who addressed the group on South American preparedness and the relations of the llatin Americans with the llnited States.

During the year many entertaining pro- grams were presented. Miss Query, the new Bible teacher. was the outstanding guest speaker. discussing the topic.

The program for the broadcast centered around the activities of Page members in the nati0n's war effort. Speakers also emphasized the challenge today of Walter Hines Page, patron saint of the organization and ambassador to Great Britain during the First lVorld VVar. The outstanding program of those presented at the regular semi-monthly meetings occurred when Professor NValtcr J. Seeley, of the Duke College of Engineering, discussed HEngineer- ing as a Profession in an informative and interesting talk. On many of the other pro- grams society members appeared and gained valuable experience in public speaking. Although each member aided individually in the War effort through participation in the civilian defense program and through pur- chase of war bonds and stamps, the society took action as a group and canceled its an- nual initiation and banquet, appropriating the funds collected for those purposes for the purchase of a War bond. Sacrifice of the initiation and banquet, annually the highlights of the year, is only one indication that Page members are ready to serve their country in any possible Way.

Hester, although having to start from scratch, came through the season with a good record. There was only one letter man, H. B. VVeaver, returning to the team. The individual high scorer was Jimmie Dezern, of Junior High, with ten points. Next was Il. B. Vlleaver, also from Junior High, with eight. The rest of the team and their total points won are: Uaptain James VValler, seveng Roy Greene, tiveg Percy Ray, one, Billy NVingate, one-halfg and John Kerr, who did not play. Although in its scheduled meets the team split even, winning two and dropping two con- tests, it came in fourth in the state tourna- PAGE 131 ment held at Chapel Hill in which thirteen teams participated. Raleigh won first place, but several days later the Hugh Morson High team came to Durham and lost to the D. H. S. boys. Mr. llester was just molding the green recruits into a well-balanced team when the schedule had to be cut short because of trans- portation difiiculties. Jimmie Dezern and James VValler won let- ters, and Il. B. NVeaver received a star. So 1 lEDUIiE Du rham ...... 10-11 ...... Mebane Durham ...... 6-15 ...... Raleigh Durham ...... 17- 4 ......

LETTERS TO YTTIE EDITORS NO SUPERLATIVES Sirs: I notice that this year no senior Superlatives have been voted on to be presented in the IWESSENGER. Usually we have Six: popular, executive, representative, athletic, artistic, and studious, with a boy and girl elected by the senior class for each category. VVhy were-n't these chosen this year? Also, what about May Day and the May Queen? JUDSON BURGESS ' Superlatives were dropped this year juvenile, meaningless, unfair. Some ti.e., studiousj were looked upon by certain Sections of the student body as more of a disgrace than an honor. Too often one person would win two or more titles, would either have to be over-featured or have the second highest take his place. This year only two people were chosen, the boy and girl outstanding in every respect. In this way a full story can be given of their activities tsee page fl64j, much more interesting than just one posed picture. May Day was canceled by school oiiicials because of the war.-ED. COVER Sirs: Red and white are the school colors, yet the cover of the INIESSENGER this year is blue and white. Why so? CHARLES MARKHAM ' The INIESSENGER has no tradition of having thc School colors on its cover, though red and white have been used for the past two years. The Staff thought a change was needed this year.-ED. NEXT YEAR? Sirs: Neither the Hz'-Rocket nor the INIESSICNGER seems to have been affected by the war this year, but there are shortages of several vital materials: paper, copper, zinc, type metal, etc. In view of these, will the publications CUIILIIIHC next YQHT? ' Crippled this year mainly in the pocketbook, both Hi-Rael-et and INIESSENGER will be hard hit next year. Much depends on the war Situation and whether VVPB clamps down on nonessential supplies. Local firms have enough materials on hand to do business next year, and there is a great pile of old reclaimable copper and zinc in the school storeroom. Safe prediction is: if no drastic changes take place in civilian consumption, both publications will appear next year, smaller and less expensivef-ED. TRADITION BROKEN Sirs: A great tradition will be broken next year. The editor of the Hi-Rocket will not be a public speaker. John Carr in 1940, Harris Proctor last year, and Charles Markham this year, all were editors, all were outstand- ing bull-Shooters for Ma Gholson. But next year John Kerr will pursue his editorship unscarred by priority fights between Ma and Miss Herr.

Fox the tin-st time ever, the AlESSllNGER this year had too many good snapshots submitted by student photographers. Most of them are in the main section of Life, but for six no place in any layout could be found. The six are on these two pages. They have no connection with each other, they simply are six pictures made at random showing' school life. Action photography for the BIESSENGER has been unusually good well as plentiful this year. Art Rick- crby, a professional, made the football action shots and several pictures for Life. Five student photographers contributed the rest: Hulet Burnette, Judson Burgess, Joseph Algranti, John Kerr, and Harold Denning. Denning' took pictures of the band on parade and one of work on model airplanes. Among' Kerr's work were two shots of the Junior-Senior Social and the picture of Lifrfs photographers. Algranti specialized in track action shots. Bulk of the pictures, however, were shot by Burgess and Burnette. Burgess, using the Speed Graphic camera of the Herald-Sun papers, took several layouts during the winter and early spring: basketball, action shots, most pictures of the Junior-Senior Social, photos of the swing band and of the medical examination. Later in the spring' Burnette bought his own Speed Graphic and completed Life: cover, layout on the war, picture of the year, senior play, Cranford and lllurray, and sev- eral other pictures.

War Hits Durham High tcont'dl A DIRECT effect of the war was the loss of the three teachers at the left. All were popularg all left many friends. More widespread was the training of over a hundred boys as fire watchers. Their duties are to re- port tires in their districts during an air-1'aid. A smaller group were made auxiliary firemen after many hours of instruction trightj, with the job of helping the reg- ular firemen in case of an attack. One group is assigned to each fire station and all its members report there when an air-raid alert is sounded. In the city's first black-out the performance of both groups was praised by city officials. HUII18 EI! glI'lS make over old clothes instead of using materials now unobtainable.

' 154 LIFE UN THE NEWSFRUNTS UF THE SCHUUL War lends note of seriousness to graduation of 350 seniors Graduation is the climax of the school year. Tl1e diploma is the reward for four years of l1igl1 school work. Both take on new meaning this year for the graduating class. Though ably led by President Harvey Renn, the Class of '42 has broken few records, made few headlines. It is an average class making progress slowly but surely, with no startling feats to its credit. Having about three hundred fifty members, it is neither the largest nor the smallest graduating class Durham High School has had. lt has the usual quota of scholars and dullards, of stars and plodders, of leaders and followers. But it is unusual--for it is graduating in a country at war-a country in which young people must become increasingly important. It is more serious-minded, perhaps, more concerned about its future, than its predecessors. It has already been affected by war at home and at school. It knows it will be affected more. Some of its members plan to join the armed forces soon, some plan to go to college, taking the accelerated war-time program, some plan to lind jobs in war indus- tries, fewer thiill ever before have no plans at all. But for all their diplomas mean the end of one life, the beginning of another. And for all there is one burning question---how can I help? ONE THOUSAND TICKETS Feature of the opening of school was the Hi-Rocket Athletic ticket campaign. Having as a slogan, Buy one and sell one, the campaign was a great success. Over one thousand combination subscriptions to the paper and season tickets to all home athletic events were sold at 2'B2.51l. The Coops led the way as usual, going 20094, while Kenneth Turner was individual high salesman. TOP-RANKING PUBLICATIONS The 1941 RIESSENGICR was perfect! ln the competition held by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association each fall, the judges awarded last year's yearbook, edited by Mildred Schulken, a medalist rating, the highest award given, together with a score of one thou- sand out of a possible one thousand points. Commenting that the book was 'tthe best of a strong line, the judges could lind no criticisms, so they filled the criticism sheet with compliments, especially about the theme, t'The web of our life is of a. mingled yarn, good and ill together. This year's Hi-Irloekwt, with Charles Markham as editor, also received a medalist rating in the spring judging at Columbia and an All-Columbian award in headline writing, as well as a first place in the Southern lutcrseholastic Press Association contest. RENN SCITULKEN STUDENT COUNCIL Top-ranking job in the school is usually considered the presidency of the Student Council. Last spring Tom Cranford easily won this ofiice. The faith of the voters seems to have been justified. Assisted by Vice-President George McLeod, Secretary Jean Smith, and Treasurer Kenneth Saturday, Cranford took up his duties with the supervision of the elections of class ofiicers last fall. Other regular jobs included presiding at all auditorium sessions, and taking charge of the hot lunch line Qi.e., seeing that the home rooms go to lunch in the right orderj. This last job, assumed by the Council two years ago, occupied two members at every lunch period. Co-operating with the Parent- T eaehers Association, the Council held Friday night socials in the school gym. These were fairly successful, as all who attended proclaimed them fun. Only trouble with the Council this year has been the apathy of the student body. Each succeeding set of officers makes a few steps in the direction of more self- government, but progress will continue to be slow until all students realize that the officers can't do everything alone. Last act of the Council was to hold the election of next year's officers. The winners were: Ralph Rogers, president, Donald Ross, vice-president, Ann Stapleford, secretary, and Charles Brame, treasurer. Again the election was a landslide-for Rogers. Again it is up to the student body to give him its support. CELEBRATING There was celebrating in Durham in December. Reasons: Duke accepted the Rose Bowl bid, the game was moved from Pasadena to Durham, Durham High's big Bob Gantt was one of the stars of the contest. PICTURE UF THE YEAR? At 3:15 P.lXl. one day late in April, Life photographer llulet Burnette, standing on a table in the main hall of Durham lligh School, took the picture of the south cor- ridor on the opposite page. The final bell ending school has just rung a few minutes before and pupils are pourfng out of all the classrooms. Typical of the rush in the halls every time classes change, this picture demonstrates why the hoped-for vocational building is badly needed. Optimistic in the autumn about chances for building it, city school officials lost hope of acquir- ing needed materials when war broke out. Only chance remaining is that Durham County, being a defense area, will be ablc to obtain materials .of which there is a shortage. eIzANr'oRo 156 zo, V lax.: M......-ef o r is ora r' J Q A355 5 gg li 2 59 1 f rv 2 , Eli mx, - Q . 2, so ,r it V r Q ae-tw A, , - f w:o,owro, M 'fw wf rf, 'L of Q , at Q :rf :VL Students ram oornrlors as o 310 bell ends school day ' I 1 1.

F UNM mr: soeial event of the year at llurham lligh is the .luuior-Senior Soc-ial, given eaeh year hy the juniors honor- ing' the seniors. With the sehool gym as the plaee, the night of Friday, Mareh 27, from 8:00 to ll:30 as the time, and the Durham High High-Hatters as the band, the old srhool building' roeked with the sound of Uhot lieksfl fancy jitterhugs, and loud applause. A light rain began a little before eight, hut kept no one away, as couple after couple entered the tall front doors, stopped to leave their eoats at the cloak room, then went into the gyin. No eouples were paired hy the invitations eommittee, but naturally many a boy brought his one-and-only. Singletons, however, were both numerous and popular. Dress was semi-formal. Few boys wore tuxedos hut many girls blossomed out in their latest spring' evening dresses. Standard attire, however, was a coat and tie for boys, a niee street dress for girls. Ileeorators had been hard at work for several days eover- ing the gym with hunting, streamers, and old Spanish moss, earryiug out the theme of 1Pan-Amerieanism.', Overhead spotlights hidden in the decorations featured the hand, while the rest of the tloor was in Comparative dimuess. 'l'he great doors opening' into the auditorimn were rolled back so that non-daneers. parents, and weary Couples Juiglit observe the festivities from their seats. Ralph Rogers, junior elass president, adjusts red-white-and- blue hunting before danee. This is the final step in decorating. 168 1 . y . f . 1 fffi 0145 fi!fE7'A' Wffflf 1JAN1'1N11 s11:11'11-11 111 1111- 11111si1' uf 11111 11i-11:1111'1's, 11111 swixlg 11111111 111'g':111im'11 This 'v11:11' :11 Il. 11.
