THE GREEN LIGHTS ★ PREVARICATOR Mr. Rose announced recently the open- ing of the Rooftop Terrace, a nightclub on the roof of the high school. He feels that students should have some place to relax after a day at school. The school will pro- vide a tand each night and in addition will furnish free cocktails. A special gambling room will be installed for the Senior boys. Membership will be open to all students who have an average of 50 or above. Due to requests of a few old-fashioned parents the club will forced to close at 3 A. M. At a recent assembly, the members of the Traffic Committee informed the stu- dents that anyone caught leaning on the radiators would be expelled immediately. Mr. Dowd backed up this committee and growled, The radiators were installed for the exclusive use of the Traffic Committee and we intend to keep it that way! SEE!!!!! The SCA has unanimously passed a bill providing a sustained salary for each member. They felt they should receive some compensation for using their valuable time at meetings. The rest of the student body gladly pay these salaries out of their own pockets. After a long hard battle, Mrs. Herring has persuaded the office to purchase new couches for the library. She states, Natural- ly, I expect everyone to sleep in the library. After all, the books are just to lend atmos- phere. Mrs. Herring, to add to the students enjoyment of the period, plays records of such quiet, sleep-inducing tunes as Shoo Fly Pie. The school board has informed the fa- culty that homework is allowed only in math classes, and the limit there shall b| one example. This rule was passed to allow students to enjoy fully, the night life of Greenville. Even though the traffic committee has been issued clubs, bullwhips, and brass knuc- kles, a few students still try to go to their locker at the wrong time. These upstarts are sentenced to the solitary confinement cells located under the Little Theatre. These cells are well-stacked with the latest third- degree equipment. In the opinion of the office, the Mono- gram initiations have been much too mild. Twenty copies of Medifval Tortures and It ' s Applications have been purchased for the library in an attempt to have more bloody initiations. In the new building, to be completed in 1986, there will be a cellar garage for all students who drive to school. Here their cars will be gassed up free of charge, as well as being washed and shined each day. in case of motor trouble, Greasemonkeys Dowd and Rose wil l don overalls and fix the cars themselves. The new building will also include cubbyholes spaced along the sides of the halls, furnished only with a sofa and Kleen- ex. These will be for the convience of the steady couples in school. A new policy on tardies and absences has been adopted by the faculty. Under it, a student who is tardy or absent, judges his own case and sits in only if he thinks he should. The percentage of students arriving at 10 A. M. increased so greatly under this system that the time of the first bell was changed to 10. As a recent survey in the school show- ed that many boys did not have cars and had to walk on dates, the school board pur- chased a fleet of cars for their use. There was a slight delay in the purchase, while the Board decided between Buicks and Cadilacs. A few ultra-conservative members defect- ed the real purpose of the act when they rul- ed that all cars would be coupes with no back seat. In the future, all students who average above a 4 wilLbe under college teachers. This will avoid the embarassment of members of the regular faculty by too many intelli- gent students. Due to the glowing tales brought back by the Journalism Class, Mr. Rose has decided that the whole school may spend a week in New York next year. In a special poll taken by Green Lights, the PLRB ' s were voted the outstanding club in G. H. S. The organization made its headlines recently when several members spoke on the subject, We want Prohibition Back. Runnerup in the poll was The Gentle- man ' s Smoking Society of the Radio Room.
