Nineteen AY A I T CH E S S N= T CLASS HISTORY H ISTEN, my children, and you shall hear the story of the class of ’38. It goes like this. Once upon a time, September, 1934 to be exact, a group of young persons, looking very scared and extremely meek, entered Grainger High to pursue further their studies. Because of their “greenness” they were dubbed Freshmen. This name proved to be inappropriate however, for, guided by a competent leader, George Buck, they distinguished themselves in many fields and gave themselves whole- heartedly over to helping the Student Council. After a year of courageous striving, they were promoted to the Sophomore Class, at which they lost most of their timidity and with a slight suggestion of a swagger, they entered into quite a few activities under the leadership of Bennie Vatz. Several of the members distinguished themselves in the Public Speakers’ Club and in various sports. The next step in their progress was their promotion into the Junior Class. As their leader they selected Hennie Green Wallace. Many of the stalwart juniors began worrying about such things as units and schedules. The football team was graced with the presence of several of the handsome stronger sex of the class. The class decided it needed some means of identification and after little debate, in- signias in the form of rings were distributed, upon the receipt of a slight remittance, to the members of the class. These were proudly displayed to all and sundry, upon little or no provocation. In the latter part of the term, several classroom seats remained unoccupied for about three days while the potential Galli-Curci’s and Caruso’s of the class attended the State Music Contest. Among the other memorable happenings of the year was the Junior-Senior ban- quet, which was perhaps the most outstanding event of the year. The high and mighty seniors “loosened up” and a good time was had by all. The last lap of their always forward movement was reached when, after the gruel- ing test of exam week, most of the juniors became members of the senior class. After this promotion occurred, there was a general straightening up of shoulders and ties: for being seniors, they had to live up to a long established reputation and be dignified. As the head of the class, Bennie Vatz proved to be a worthy choice. In the early part of the year, mixed exclamations of joy and misery, mostly misery, could be heard from the seniors. Pieces of cardboard were viewed with woe-be-gone expressions and slipped quickly back into envelopes before any prying eyes could be- hold the source of all this gloom. All of this grief was caused by an unobtrusive but tell-tale camera. The Annual pictures had been made! Much scurrying around and heavy thinking on the juniors part resulted in the Junior-Senior banquet at which congeniality reigned supreme. The junior class proved to be a jovial and cordial host. While outwardly it was not shown, deep in their hearts the departing seniors felt rather sad at leaving a place where many happy hours had been spent. But they feigned lightheartedness until the very last day, graduation day, and even then they restrained themselves until they got home where thy proceeded to weep all over the place. And thus, realizing it had to face an unrelentless and skeptical world, the class of 1938 journeyed forth. Miriam Maynard, Historian.

MAY 17, 1948 PRICE: WE AIN’T PROUD— 5c Celebrities Return From Extended Tour Herman Lawson and Irving Poliakoff, only world famous men toe dancers and singers, are sched- uled to arrive tomorrow after a three year tour of Africa and South America. On the tour, Mr. Poliakoff won the Goonposh trophy, awarded every year to the American singer with the most soothing voice. This is determined by the singer who puts the most to sleep. Mr. Law- son received over ten thousand compliments for his gracefulness in dancing, as well as for his golden voice. Two Local Girls In Same Story Representing North Carolina, Miss Alyce Marie Spear won first place in the Annual Pickle Parade Beauty Contest sponsored by the U. C. Thruit Underwear Company. The award was made by a mem- ber of the company, Hennie Green Wallace, who is chief designer for the red flannel department. Entertainers Return to U. S. Miss Helen Turnage, famous dramatic actress, and Miss Ruby Bishop, international dancer, have returned from an extended tour of the Central and South American countries. They were accompanied by their company which consists of: electrician, John Arnold; sec- retary, Lizzie Avery; business manager, Sam Blythe; accompan- ist, Lura Mae Bell; wardrobe mis- tress, Mercer Letchworth; scenery designer, Marie King. Kinston Physician Performs Miracle Dr. Bennie Vatz, local physician, announced today that Ida Jeffress, critically ill with a rare brain di- sease which she has had for some time, has passed the crisis and is recovering rapidly. Miss Jeffress was recently transferred to a higher group of the doctor’s men- tal patients. This achievement marks the climax of Dr. Vatz’s spectacular career, as this is the first patient to survive ten days under his personal attention, ac- cording to Dorothy Evans, Dr. Vatz’s nurse — professionally and domestically. Former Kinstonians Visit Friends Here Miss Ann Brooks of Bingling Brothers’ Circus, and her physi- cian, Dr. Sara Hill, are spending a few weeks with friends here be- fore joining the circus again at winter quarters in Florida. Miss Brooks while here is conducting a tent show every night at the old circus grounds.

Court Order Brings Change The Gossip Club of North Caro- lina held its annual meeting last week at the State Capitol. Montez Simmons, president, presided over the meeting. Marie Shyver, secre- tary, reported on the progress of the new sound-proof walls of the building. Joe Miller, music and dancing teacher three blocks away, has obtained a court order for the construction of these walls, on the grounds that his classes are dis- turbed by the noise coming from these meetings. Mary Bailey to be at High School Mary Bailey, famed lecturer on Spain and all points North, South, East, and West, will be at Graing- er High School to deliver an ad- dress Friday night. Her talk will be made more interesting by some interpretive dances by Miss Bailey, and also by the exhibiting of a notebook which she made while a student at G. H. S. Night Club to be Opened in Kinston Miss Jerrie Kyle, the owner of a chain of successful night clubs throughout the United States has announced through her secretary, Miss Evelyn Peterson, her plans for opening a night club in Kin- ston.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT When, in the course of human events, it becomes neces- sary to make a few changes to bring about peace in an in- stitution of learning, such as our dearly beloved Grainger High School, never let it be said that peace was not brought — no matter what the extremes. As the past ten years have glided by, if we pause a moment or two to notice the changes made at Grainger, we will be astounded to see what has been accomplished. Of these achievements, there are three that perhaps will be most amazing. Just think of having no homework to do afternoons or nights ! Probably the most remarkable invention of modern times is the education pill invented by Professor Horne, world famous physicist. All one need do now is take at bed- time one pill for history and science, two pills for commer- cial subjects and foreign languages, and three pills for mathematics and English — Mother Nature does the rest while you sleep ! While the professor’s motive in perfecting this invention was merely a selfish one, (he was trying to save red lead in his pencil which he had to use so much) he has given the teachers of the world a gift which can never be surpassed. And the pupils — he can never realize the gift he has given that suffering class of humanity. While the teachers think so much of the education pill, there are a number of students who still rebel at taking pills, no matter if they are sugar-coated. For the benefit of these students and others who are bored with answering silly ques- tions asked by teachers, Grainger students are allowed to use a self-speaking device. This device answers all questions as teachers want them answered, and leaves the student free to do the more important things, such as passing notes, whis- pering, and gossiping. Another noticeable change in our school is the way one may get from floor to floor. Never before has our Superin- tendent been so highly thought of as he is now. No, never, for never before have students had the privilege of riding from floor to floor in elevators. Who or what was respon- sible for getting us this boon to weary feet, we do not know, but we have them now and for them we are truly grateful — in spite of the rush and knock down at the end of every period to get inside. A first aid station has been established on each floor by the elevator door to care for the injured. Usually, one hears the older generation sigh and pine for “the good old days”, but you hear that no more at Grainger High — “today” is so much better than “the days of old”. In fact, it is said that some of the graduates of ten years ago are wanting to return to their Alma-Mater so that they may enjoy some of these marvelous changes that they longed for when they were students there. Poetry Contest In a recent poetry contest put on by the Kinston Society for Ap- preciation of the World’s Best Poetry, several members of the il- lustrious class of 1938 took off all the honors. The president of this Society, Sam Abbott, has just given us the names of the winners and we are proud to print the results of their poetic Muse in this issue of the Ki-Hi. PRIZE WINNING POEM Two gun Vatz on his milk white horse Spied Hennie Green on a train, She fell on the track, And he jerked her right back. But her head was never again the same. Harry Weyher. SECOND PRIZE There was once a man who drove like a bullet, Never thinking of anyone’s health. But one day in a hurry he ran over a pullet, And it cost him all of his wealth. (He should have used his brakes or wooed the farmer’s daugh- ter) . Dorothy Taylor. THIRD PRIZE I’ve got a little dog whose name is Ginger, And such a lively piece you’ve never seen. He ' ll scratch and he’ll bark, And just for a lark, He’ll jump right slam - smack through the screen. Unclaimed. Contract Signed by Doris Mumford Doris Mumford has recently signed a three year contract as a bathing suit model at Miami Beach, her secretary, Marion Noble, announced today. May 17, 1948 THE K I - H I Page Three Kinston School Ends Season U. Larn Naught College bask- etball team has just completed its most successful season in years. During the last game of the sea- son, an opponent shot a goal in the wrong basket, making the first noints scored by the U. Larn Naughters in ten years. Miss Inez Jones, coach of the sextet, will re- ceive a fifty cents supplement at the end of the year, President Agatha Wade announced today. The total of points for this great season is: Opponents — 2,987,546; U. Larn Naught — 2. Robert Pipkin Named Winner Elwood Taylor, President of the Business Mens’ Union of the Unit- ed States, announced today through his secretary, Randolph Rhue, that Robert Pipkin has received the an- nual award for the best window display in the nation. The window of PIPKIN’S store was decorated with a statue of Miriam Maynard, world famous movie actress.

Mr. George Buck, City Manager of Kinston, has returned from at- tending a convention of managers at Philadelphia. He was accom- panied on this trip by Mr. William B.

His secretary, Miss Mil- dred Dupree, has been here for some time looking after Mr. Has- kins’ fan mail, which is so great that the post office closes on Sun- day so the clerks can rest from the heavy mail they didn’t have Satur- day. Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Bour- das (Edna Grace Sutton) have re- turned to the city from a two months’ stay in California.

Flattery is 90 per cent soap. And soap is 90 per cent lye. And the Germans named their ships after jokes, so the English wouldn’t see them. The height of something or other is a dumb girl turning a deaf ear to a blind date. JAMES B.

JONES and W. SMITH LAWYERS KAY AITCH ESS LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT State of North Carolina, County of Lenoir, City of Kinston. E, THE good-looking and dignified class of nineteen hundred and thirty-eight of Kinston High School, aforesaid state, county, and city, being of unsound minds and weary bodies, do hereby make and proclaim our Last Will and Testament. We, having past the last mile-stone on our winding path up the rugged hill of knowledge, almost overcome by hard work, do desire to dispose of all our assets, liabili- ties, and property in the following manner: ARTICLE I Section 1. To the student body we leave: Our school spirit, which includes cooperation in all school activities. Our stately building to cherish and protect, never marring its beauty in any way. The right to preserve law and order on all occasions with justice and impartiality, we bestow upon the Student Council. ARTICLE II Section 1. To the entire faculty we wish to express our gratitude for their untir- ing labors and efforts to put knowledge where knowledge was not. Section II. To certain members of the faculty we leave: To Major Graham, our deepest gratitude for his patience in dealing with us during our high school career. To Mr. Booth, with thanks, his chapel talks to be used again in the future. To Miss Watts, all of the “ones” on English earned by us to be re-distributed next year. To Miss Britt, all her unsolved algebra problems. To Miss Pully, all the failures on Spanish and French. To Mr. Mock, all unread history lessons. To Mr. Horne, all our knowledge of physics, so that he may better expound to the Seniors of next year that hot air and physics are two entirely different things. To Miss Davenport and Mr. Brubaker, many thanks for preparing students to face the cold and cruel world with courage as they look for their first job. To Mrs. Moseley, a homeroom that will be a model of good behavior. To Mrs. Ward, our thanks for all the information gained on “balancing the bud- get” and “feeding the family.” ARTICLE III Section I. To the incoming Senior class we leave the right to display its newly acquired Senior dignity. May it have full possession of all Senior privileges, if there be any. We also bequeath to the afore mentioned class the enjoyable task of publish- ing the Kay-Aitch-Ess for the year of 1939. Section II. To the various members of same class we leave: Sam Abbott’s quiet dignity to Helen Sutton and Frances Spear, to be divided equally. Montez Simmons’ continuous chatter to Dorothy Craft. Ida Jeffress’ art of flirtation, including five lessons on the use of the eyes, to Mar- garet Jarman. Joe Miller’s title, “Public Pest Number One,” which he has so honorably upheld, to one Jimmy Cook. (Teachers beware!) Irving Poliakoff’s laziness to Harry Cummings, with apologies. Herman Lawson’s ability to argue about anything under the sun, to Jimmy Rochelle. The sound athletic ability of “the Jones girls,” Gloria Nunn, and Marion Cook to Rowena Sutton and Mary Lewis Rochelle. Vivian Cayton’s lack of interest in the opposite sex to Louise Odom. Section III. Upon the Sophomores we do confer the studious habits and desires for higher knowledge possessed by our illustrious class. Section IV. To our beloved and festive Freshmen we do bestow our unwritten motto, “Never do today what you can put off until tomorrow.” This applies to students who are not in a hurrv to graduate. ARTICLE IV Any and all other wills made by us are hereby declared null and void. We do hereby certify that this is our last distribution of our rights, possessions, and privileges. In witness whereof, we have hereunto set our hand and seal, this eventful day of May 17, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-eight.
