To such a power do we dedicate the 19 5 3 KAY-AITCH-ESS. She Has Brought us through the realms of the English language, prodding or pulling as the case may be. By her steady guidance, we have made our way through the mazes of grammar — our blank looks and silly questions always being received with the same patience and warm understanding. As we have plunged into the icy waters of literature, her vivid imagination and keen talent of ex- planation have made prose and poetry as enjoyable and re- freshing as an invigorating swim in a mountain stream. To Most of Us, She is a close friend, ever present in time of trouble. We have worked together in the Tri-Hi-Y and the Ki-Hi, her keen mind willingly ironing out the dif- ficulties which are so quick to arise. Her sparkling, youth- ful personality has made it easy for us to share our problems. And So, with our humblest, and yet proudest, thank you,” we, the Senior Class of 19 5 3, dedicate this, the twenty-eighth volume of the KAY-AITCH-ESS, to . . .

Led by Charles McIntyre, who scooped up two loose fumbles in the opening minutes and turned both into touchdowns. The Raiders went out front 14-0 in the first quarter. There was no scoring done in the second and third quarters, but Kinston tried desperately for a score when Kenneth Brinkley broke loose on a 4 8 -yard run, only to have it nullified and brought back to the 22-yard line, wTere Methodist Orphanage took over again. In the fourth quarter, McIntyre scored again but missed the extra point and in the closing minutes of the game Wilbur Hardin completed a 10-yard pass for another score as the game ended 27-0. La Grange Edged By Red Devils 7-0 Playing in ankle-deep mud and a hard downpour of rain, the Red Devils hit victory road for the first time with a sweet 7-0 win over arch-rival La Grange. Both teams failed to tally in the first two quarters, but in the third after a series of rushes, Tony Gerrans hit pay dirt with an 8 -yard plunge. Allen Heath’s placement was good and the Devils were ahead 7-0. La Grange just couldn’t click until the last quarter when they scored, but a penalty nullified the touchdown and the ball was brought back. A desperate rally in the last minutes brought them knocking on Kinston’s goal, but great defense play on the part of Anderson, Mayo, Utley, Henry, Popov and Heath saved the game for the fighting Red Men. FOOTBALL Douglas Quinn, and of Leo Prescott, who scored on a one-yard bust up the middle. Mock substituted the Junior Varsity in the last quarter and they played terrific defensive ball and held the Phan- toms almost gainless. Courie, Randolph, and Crawford were outstanding for Kinston. Red Devils Bow To AAA Cyclones 12-6 The Grainger Red Men sustained their third non-con- ference loss of the season Friday, October 3, at Wilson as the Cyclones squeezed out a 12-6 triumph. The Devils opened up like a house on fire as Potter pounced on a Wilson fumble on the 27-yard line. After four consecu- tive plays, Prescott scored for Kinston’s first touchdown. Brafford’s placement was wide. The Cyclones came back with the game-tying touchdown on a run by Bobby Gay. Their placement was no good. The winning touchdown came in the fourth period on a brilliant 42-yard scamper by Gay to the one-yard stripe where Deans crashed over. The placement was no good. Despite several scoring threats, Kinston was unable to push across another tally. Aces Get 16-7 Victory Over Red Devils Edenton’s Aces got a sweet 16-7 victory over the Red Devils to mark the first time in five years that Edenton had defeated the Red Men. All of the scoring was done in the first two quarters. Quarterback Lassiter’s quick jump passes to End Al Owens and the running of Jimmy Bass were too much for the Devils. The Devils touchdown came in the first three minutes of the game when Buddy Potter took a 22-yard pass from Tony Gerrans on Edenton’s three-yard stripe and stepped across the goal line. Heath’s placement was good and Kinston led 7-0. George Henry’s recovery of Lyn Boswell’s fumble on the Aces’ 34-yard line set up the score. Edenton opened their scor- ing when Quinn fumbled a pass from center and was tackled in the end zone for a safety. Edenton scored again in the 2nd quarter on Lassiter’s toss to Owens, and he converted to make the score 9-7. Late in 2nd quarter, Bass took a handoff from Lassiter and raced 61 yards down the sideline for the final marker. Owens converted. Popov stood out on defense, as did Brinkley on offense.

Late in the final period, Kinston came to life and scored their only touchdown as a result of the fine tunning of The husky Roanoke Rapids Yellow Jackets ran rough- shod over the Grainger Red Devils by a 28-0 score while putting on one of the most powerful attacks seen in a long while. Paced bv Lucky Hurst and Tommy Williamson, who ran and passed their way to three touchdowns in the first half, they completely snowed the Devils under from the start. The Devils held them scoreless in the third period with a tight defense paced by Popov, Henry, Anderson, and Baker. Kinston’s only scoring opportunity came in the third quarter but was erased by a clipping penalty. Taylor scored the Jacket’s final touchdown on a 16-yard run in the fourth quarter. 62 Elizabeth City Dow ns Devils In Homecoming Tilt There 27-0 The Grainger High School Red Devils went down in defeat at Elizabeth City Friday night before a strong Yellow Jacket Club by a score of 27-0. Elizabeth City filled the air with passes and two of them found the range of Bobby Darling’s arms in the first quarter and the Jackets led 13-0 at halftime. They ran the third touch- down as Sawyer bucked over from the five and later in the third quarter Darling caught a screen pass from Cuthrell and ran 27 yards to pay dirt. To complete the scoring, Kinston fumbled away its only opportunity to score in the fourth period when Poulas broke through the line and recovered Prescott’s fumble. Bryan, Brinkley, Heath, Anderson, Popov, and Utley played good ball all night for the Red Men. Goldsboro’s AAA Whips Red Devils 41-14 The Red Devils held Goldsboro to a 14-14 tie during the first half, but the Earthquakes put on the steam in the second half and raced on to a 41-14 victory. Langston, on a quarterback sneak, bounded over for the first score, after Rochelle’s kick was blocked on the 22- yard stripe. Kinston bounced back with Tony Gerrans carrying the ball to the Goldsboro’s 49. From there the Red Devils went all the way, with Brinkley scoring and Heath splitting the uprights. Goldsboro scored again, but the Devils, not to be outdone, came back in the last sec- onds of the second half as Brinkley scored again. The rivals walked off the field at halftime with a 14-14 tie, but the Earthquakes came back in the third period to push over three quick touchdowns, turning the game into a one-sided rout. Even with the bang-up job done by Brinkley, Anderson, and Whitfield, the Red Devils just couldn’t come through.

Although some say they’re glad to go, They’d really like to stay. In memory we keep the things That most impressed us all: Miss Watts, those hard exams and tests, The writing on the walls. The long and upward pull began In nineteen forty-nine; Elected Grace Carter for To lead us at that time. We thought the work was hard back then With algebra, ninth grade. What wouldn’t we give to do it again We’d think we had it made. As Sophomores began more work With Madry at the helm. That Junior-Senior had to come; We had to overwhelm. Those courses too were hard that year With English and Miss Johnson; The football games and other sports Became the latest fashion. And Isabel in all our fun Was not to be cast out; Eor in our Junior year she came To do a return bout. The Junior-Senior came off swell: It was a lot of fun. An Evening in Paris” was The best for everyone. Burwell Temple was the president As Seniors we became. Just one more happy year we had With one exit as our aim. And then the greatest time of all Arrived. We had or chance In whitest caps and gowns to march To Pomp and Circumstance.” But never shall we all forget The lovely times we had. Our high school days were wonderful And leaving we are sad. Evelyn Outlaw Historian. lES 79 KAY-TOWN KAPERS Edited By Ruth Stephenson and Isabel Madry June 2, 1963 EXPEDITION SAILS ON USS MACBETH FIRE RAVAGES SHS AT PARAMURO A huge farewell crowd was witness to the departure of the ship U.S.S. Macbeth late yester- day. The expedition is for the purpose of building a new hos- pital in the center of African jungles. Drs. Burwell Temple, Bobby Casey, and J. T. Pratt were in charge of the expedition and will be directors of the new hospital in Africa. Miss Elba Rouse, well- known missionary, accompanied the group to Christianize the natives. The new administration of the hospital will include Misses Bar- bara Summerlin, Mavis Avery, and Esther Byrd, registered nurses; and Misses Katherine Oglesby and Mary Bryan Pitt- man, medical technologists. Mr. Bobby Hoover and Leslie Heath will serve as co-business managers, with Misses Peggy Mozingo, Peggy Burkette, and Grace Carter as their secretari- al assistants. Engineer Jackie Potter, with his private bridge-christener. Miss Martha Cox, will be in charge of the construction of the medical center. Miss Ann Ford- ham accompanied the group. When interviewed. Miss Ford- ham stated, “I’m going looking for Bumpy Gocart, who is still supposedly searching for his African Bean.” President Speaks Bruce Blevins, president of Guided Missiles, Inc., spoke to- day in Miami, Florida at the Miami School for Air Hostesses’ graduation exercises. He was ac- companied by his head pilots, Paul Popov and Roland Miller; and his foremost aeronautical engineer, Leo Prescott. Misses Dolores Courie and Evelyn Out- law, heads of the school, plan- ned a gala welcome to the visit- ing pilots, who are former class- mates of the two ladies. Secretaries Convene In New York City Miss Ruby Little, chairman of the National Association of Sec- retaries, today presided over the Secretaries’ Convention in New York City. Miss Little, when in- terviewed by reporter Pat Hum- phrey, stated: “Thanks to the capable assist- ance of our vice - chairmen. Misses Betty Jean Taylor and Louise Sanderson, and all other secretaries who attended our convention, I may say that this has been the most successful con- vention in the history of our organization.” A number of interesting lec- tures were given this afternoon before a group estimated at 1500 secretaries. Among these were “The Secretary’s S. Y. S. (Save Your Sister)” by Miss Judy Baker and “When the Boss Finds Dictation Boring” by Miss Peggy Blackburn. Miss Mary Elizabeth Pittman lectur- ed on “How to Keep Both a House and a Job.” An added treat was a talk by Miss Geraldine Noble, called the “Maestro of Muscle Manipula- tion.” Miss Nobles spoke con- vincingly on why every secre- tary needed to attend her school. “The Secretary’s Own School of Jujitsu.” Among the well-known secre- taries attending were Misses Emma Lee Grant, Hilda Grace Cade, Bobbie Lee, Gladys Jar- man, and Peggy Heath. Thousands of dollars were lost last evening as fire destroyed three important sets of Para- metro studios. The blaze was re- ported by sound director, Frank Jordan, and was said to have started in the main set of “Why Does a Chicken Cross the Road?,” which is now being filmed. The sets, which were designed by architect Blanche Baker and wired by electrical engineer David Williams, were some of the most important of the movie. In one, the star. Miss Verna Wooten, takes her famed bubble bath. The blaze is believed to have been started by the burn- ing of midnight oil by the musi- cal director, Mr. Tony Hearn. Fire Chief Douglas Ervin was the hero of the day as he saved the encyclopedias of the star. These are very valuable to Miss Wooten, who spends most of her time engrossed in looking up the answer to the question which the title of the film asks. Chief Ervin also was the rescuer of Miss Virginia Dee Randolph, head dress designer and under- study for Miss Wooten. When interviewed by our reporter. Miss Randolph declared, “I was only studying under the bubbles. That’s what the understudy is supposed to do, and I just love bubbles!” T-Model Sale Kinston citizens will be de- lighted to learn that there will be an amazing sale of 1926 Model “T” Fords at the S S Motor Company tomorrow at 3 o’clock p.m. Tommy Savage, B.
