No student ever had a teacher more sincerely interested in each individual, and certainly no yearbook ever had a more versatile adviser. She plans and organizes thoughtfully and carefully after long hours of consideration. She manages competently with genuine understanding for those who work beside her. She criticizes a nd advises graciously, never losing sight of the wishes of her staff. And so we look no further for the one most worthy to receive this dedication. The honor is naturally hers. LET US CONSIDER ave you ever paused for a moment to think of the things you will miss when you leave Senior High? You probably remember first your varied social and extra- currcular activities, and last your all-important curricular work. All three go together to help you develop a well- rounded personality. After these thoughts have passed, others may linger. You hear the sharp clang of the three- thirty bell and the thunder of a thousand feet beating on steel-tipped steps. You hear gleeful good-byes and the click of a combination lock ending another day. Then in the silence of empty halls, an echo warms your heart: “All hail to thee, our Alma Mater strong!’’ You are a special part of Senior. In the following pages, school life is a program revolving around you, and enriching your life.

Hut for each of us there were those thought-provoking lessons and exercises that trained us to reason. We often looked for¬ ward eagerly to good times, but we realize that it was the curricular work which gave us the opportunity to enrich our minds and to prepare ourselves for a constructive life.

Guiding and Advising Arc Their Business ... 12 FACULTY Whether appointed, elected or merely requested, teachers have taken on many jobs besides their regular class work. They supervised extra¬ curricular activities; helped with clubs, dances, projects; applauded at ball games, plays, con¬ certs—supporting other people ' s activities as well as their own. They even found time to give occasional parties for new or departing teachers. Their resiliency and enthusiasm are basic in Senior’s well-rounded program.

Home and School Cooperate We are fortunate that our Parent-Teacher Associa¬ tion was always so willing and anxious to help students in every possible way. No one could ever have shown more concern than the officers and com¬ mittee members who gave so much of their time and thought to helping improve home and school rela¬ tionships. The board of officers and committee chair¬ men held luncheon meetings every month to plan for ways to arouse greater interest in our school and to bring the parents into closer contact with the teachers of their children. They contributed funds for Social Standards Day, College Day, Whirligig, mid¬ winter and graduation dances; they awarded a bond to a senior chosen by his classmates for a special award. They also served by leading panel discussions on Social Standards Day and by chaperoning various dances. For these and many other kindnesses we, the students, say Thank you!

Lessons In Living Help Seniors Face The Future At last that longed-for day came when those students deserving the honor took their places in the center auditorium seats to start their last and best year at Senior. Each day left memories of fun and work, but perhaps some will be remembered longer than others. There were blue and white ribbons sold by the Senior Class before each football game that gave the whole school a feeling of team’’ spirit. All the Belvedere” fans turned out for Dreamboat,” sponsored by the Seniors to help raise money for their $300 contribu¬ tion to Whirligig. A successful Christmas card sale added to Senior Class funds. The Christmas Pageant, a Senior Class produc¬ tion, was presented in beautiful tableaux with music, of which the Waring Pennsylvanians might well be proud, by all vocal groups combined. The fondest memories of all are the annual trip to Washington where Seniors saw famous sights and rode the roller-coaster. Graduating Seniors will remember not only their last year, but each outstanding experi¬ ence of their life in high school. Senior officers are Alice While, Vice-President; Jimmy Armstrong, President; John Sauvajot, Treasurer; Miss Maunida Wales, Adviser; Frances Hosley, Secretary. 19 In Mr. Illman’s art classes, art is everything from weaving to fashion designing, from clay modeling to finger painting.

Why, the Junior Class of course. Their Shaker sale boosted school spirit in addition to making possible a $200 contribu¬ tion to Whirligig. With the assistance of Mrs. Darnell, class adviser, the Juniors pre¬ sented their annual Thanksgiving program, beginning with an oration by Forbes Ramsey on Democracy and a typical neighborhood scene of Americans and foreigners chatting together. Then part of the history of the United States was portrayed, including the first Thanksgiving and Indian dance. Glee Club Music ended the program. Juniors even helped bring the spirit of Christmas to Senior by selling wrapping paper. Yes, the Juniors have much to remember; but they have even more to look forward to in their new role as Seniors.

Their Hardest Year Mastered, Sophomores Face Greater Opportunities The brunt of many an upper classman’s joke is the lowly sophomore. Can’t you even open a combination lock?” I told you the band room was on the Science Building third floor. You mustn’t miss the delectable hash served in the cafeteria. When you get to be Seniors, you can use the elevator.” The Sophomore year is a kind of initiation to Senior High. This Class of 1955 came through with flying colors. The Sophomores sold gold pins bearing the letters G.H.S. and the stu¬ dent ' s graduation year. Senior High students filled the Carolina Theatre for Across the Wide Missouri,” sponsored by the Sophomore Class. Proceeds from the sale of tickets went toward their $200 contribution to Whirligig. After a year of fun and hard work combined, these Sophomores have proved that they are well prepared to begin their junior year. 85 Francine Marie Ahalt Mary A la la Barbara Sue Alberty Clara Ann Alexander Jerald Wayne Allen Rachel Marie Allen Mary Elizabeth Allred Glenda Joyce Amos Janet Marie Anderson Charles David Andrew Carol Apple Carolyn Janet Apple Ralph Carlton Apple Sallie Millis Armfield Steve Arthur Reuben Bell Arthur Clifton Merle Bachtell Loretta Bailey Arthur Eugene Balderacchi Robert Sylvester Barnes Roger Cary Barricks Lena Yvonne Basinger Charles Leroy Beal Sheila Raye Beaver Gayle Loraine Bell Patsy Ann Bell Sandra Kathryn Bentz Judith Louise Bertling James Alvis Bilisoly Sylvia Ann Black Sylvia Ann Boggan Rita Rae Boggs Doris Joan Boliek Clarence Willard Bolling Francis Guy Bondurant Mary Anne Boone Mary Madeline Boren Margie Perry Boren Jerry Lynn Bosher Emily Bowles Mary Jane Boydell Bobby Breed 1 ove Jackie Edward Brewer Martha Ann Bright Phyllis Brooks Shirley Ann Brown Mary Ann Buck Martha Ann Burnet Phillip E.

Club, one of three national organ¬ izations at Senior is affiliated with D. E. Clubs of America. Piedmont District clubs met in October this year and the state con¬ vention, to which the local club annually plays host, met on February 27-28. The an¬ nual Bosses ' Banquet, given with the D.

There were always interesting pro¬ grams, planned by Bobbie Jean Wray and her committee. James Lester acted as chairman of the steering committee for the Bosses’ Ban¬ quet. Field trips to a rayon plant, a depart¬ ment store window-dressing, a bakery, a dairy, and many others arranged by Mrs. Hodden, stand out in this year ' s valuable experiences. Officers of third period D. E. are about to leave for their jobs. Left to right: Boh Goldberg, Reporter; Virginia Williams, Secre¬ tary; Bobbie Jean Wray, Vice-President; Jimmy Clark.

There was relief and pride over Shirley’s, Anne’s, and Becky’s new rings. There was more pride, and a feeling of responsibility that came with the hostess ribbons worn on College Day. For lone Dun¬ can there was frustration from never getting a word in; and for everyone, the satisfaction of having Modena and her rubber car of end¬ less capacity. The basketball game was fun. but painful in spots. Post-practice odors of liniment made it clear why the game had to be postponed another day. Orchids sent by appreciative bosses for the banquet turned out to be shamrocks; and the banquet itself was full of thrills after the hard work of planning, making program booklets and decorating. Belly Cox gels her office practice in concentrated form, for in ihe prin¬ cipal ' s office where she works jobs are Mr. Thorpe Jones stands at the hack of his second period class in trades. Class members are, front row: Hurl Ozment, R. A. Murchison, Jr. Second row: Jean Barricks, Kenneth Barber, David Jenkins, A. F. H owell, Alton Hall. Third row: Baltic Apple, Jean Hooks, Jerry Wheeler, Warren Hodgin, Jack Marsh. Boh Purgason. Burt Ozment, above, at his drafting job with a local orna¬ mental iron company. Rig if: Officers of the second period trades class are Kenneth Barber, Vice-President; Jean Barricks, Secretary-Treasurer; Alton Hall, President. Remembering diversified occupations, Mr. Jones’s trades groups think about more diversified items than mere jobs. Field trips like the one to Buggs Island Dam stand out. So do the D. O.

In this way every student could be heard and every valid problem discussed and solved, if possible, by the council at its Tuesday after¬ noon meetings. These discussions were often heated, always animated, and always driven by a deep concern for the ideas and problems of all the students.

[( � Ifjy- The council was behind . . . and in the midst of . . . several of the biggest events during the year. They get the credit for placing benches around the campus, sponsoring and decorat¬ ing for school dances, holding the nominating convention and the school election, and espe¬ cially for Social Standards Day. On October 17 our first Social Standards Day in two years was held. Mrs. Blackburn, Miss Browne, Mary Henrie Arthur, and Jimmy Powell headed a committee to choose a theme, plan the program and secure speak¬ ers and panel leaders. On the day chosen every student heard speeches and joined dis¬ cussion groups about problems that concern teenagers especially. The theme for these discussions was from Hamlet: This above all: To thine own self be true. In considering this theme of being our best selves, everyone was eager to work out better relationships between himself and home, school, church, and fellow students. For an immediate improvement in social relations at school, there was a faculty-student ball game after lunch, with the players in comic cos¬ tumes. Afternoon homeroom discussions sum¬ marized the day’s highlights and gave students further points to consider in setting their own standards higher. 113 “No, boys. State does not have a girls’ campus like Duke’s,” answers Mr. W. L. Mayer, State representative. With Mr. Mayer is Mr. E. G. Thurlow, also from State, to answer part of the countless questions.

Leaders in Scholarship, Character and Service Eleven times that autumn morning the strains of Ava Maria” filled the suspense-packed auditorium, as veteran torchbearers” sought out thirteen new members. There was a tap on each shoulder and a candle thrust into each hand, trembling and damp from hope and suspense. That tap represented the re¬ ward for endless planning, studying, serving. That tap was the beginning of added re¬ sponsibility. Torchlight members, along with D. O. students, arranged College Day and acted as hosts on that day. They met each week and carried out various useful projects. In the spring they helped to choose and tap new members. They climaxed their year by giving their always-successful Talent Show.

During the winter months the I Speak for Democracy” contest was held, while Spring featured three one-act plays produced by the Senior, Junior and Sophomore Classes.

All American Present a Year “With pictures like these we ought to make All-American again this year!” agree Betlie Jane Upchurch, Assistant Editor; Miss Virginia Powell, Adviser; and Pat Gregg, Editor-in-chief, as they look over some of Mr. Martin ' s latest informal shots. The Whirligig Rembrandts, left below, are Ann Button and Sylvia Phillips. Ann spent many patient hours getting the lettering just right, while Sylvia’s drawings have enriched this hook throughout. Right: Many hours of cutting and pasting by engraving editor Robert Thompson and engraving assistant, Stewart Col¬ son, went into the preparation of the class portrait panels. Aspirants in Our Lives Martha Jordon, Business Man¬ ager; and Barbara Jamieson, Assistant Business Manager, smile with satisfaction as their hooks finally balance. WHIRLIGIG If you happened to drop by the Whirligig room between September and February, you must have been bewildered by the state of things. David, encouraged by Martha’s and Barbara’s slogan, Bigger ads—more money,” probably hurried by on his way to flash that Give us some money” smile. After wading through Ann Hobbs’ erasure pile, you found yourself watching Robert and Stewart mount pictures, Robert confiding details of his latest conquest. You decided Robert ' s affairs were none of your business; so you moved toward Miss Powell’s desk, when all at once she insisted, You couldn’t possibly have found that over there. I left it right here, I tell you!” Then Bettie Jane apologized, Well, you see, I took it home to work on, but my dog got sick and ...” No one would let you see what Sylvia and Anne were drawing, so you started out. Pat stopped you with, Did you bring anything to eat?” As you finally left, Margot, Ann Hunter, John, or Bob glanced up from their writing and shoved a picture at you, saying, Identify the fifth boy in the second row with his head behind that tree.” You shook your head in dismay and began to understand why we, the Whirligig staff, might be proud if this 1953 edition ever materialized. In November, Bettie Jane took the advice of Mr. Brightman, our engraving genius, and flew with Miss Powell to the National Scholastic Press Conference in Chi- 123 tiring photography editors for as big a deal as our yearbook requires is one grand snarl of details—check¬ ing. making appointments, reminding, arranging people in rows, arranging people out of rows, cheeking, reminding.

On January thirtieth, when Mr. Fleming took the dummy to Char¬ lotte, each of us felt that a part of our lives was being sent to press. We only hope that in years to come you will turn these pages and relive your memories.

Looking back over a grueling, grand year the High Life staff must sometimes wonder that they survived Cordelia’s looney laugh, Al¬ fred’s daily dilemmas with David. Proud of Martha’s piercing editorials, amazed at Lois ' ability to detect mispelled words, astonished at Miss Abernethy’s patience, and thankful for Mr. Routh’s understanding of financial woes, they snatched bits of news here, begged an ad there, and somehow published their handiwork designed to mirror the spirit of their sympathizers and subscribers, the stu¬ dent body.

All outstanding con¬ tributors to school publications, the literary members of the local O. Henry Chapter turned their eloquent phrases into puns and fun at their party, second semester. All good-natured rivalry between Whirligig and High Life was forgotten at each meeting when both staffs collaborated on jokes and English themes. Walter Spearman, head of the journalism school of the University of North Carolina, added a celebrity’s touch and talent at Quill and Scroll ' s annual assem¬ bly program in March. Miss Abernethy advised this group of printer’s devils.’’ 128 Book Lovers Go Exploring Here jof i Library Club The day of a good book at Senior was often busier than that of a student. For it no sooner came in, got a cleaning by some member of the library club—student assistants—than out it went again. Librarians Herring and Bost and library assistant Geraldine Payne were always busy finding refer¬ ences, checking out books, answering questions. Library club meetings came every week, too. High spot of their year was their Book Week assembly program, which brought to Senior the high honor of a speech by authoress Elizabeth Gray Vining about her experiences as a royal tutor in Japan.

The first orchestra ’’performance” this year was a party for new members. In November the State Clinic was held in Greensboro, and G.H.S. was host to high school musicians from all over the state. In December the Orchestra-Choir production, Where, but in America?” was a huge success. Following closely was the first orchestra assembly which featured such popular numbers as Dancing in the Dark” and Overture to The King and I.” After Christmas several players went to Boone to participate in the All-State Or¬ chestra. From February until April members worked feverishly to prepare music for the State Contest and their second assembly pro¬ gram.

Whirlies Finish Third in AAA Conference The Greensboro Whirlies ended die regular season with a record of 13 victories and 7 defeats. Still a homeless team (no gym of their own until next year) they played all their home games at Guilford College. Among those victories of the early season was a win over Raleigh High School, who last year defeated the Whirlies in the state finals by two points. Go-captain Paul Stanton ' s drive in shots couldn’t be stopped, while Co-captain Buster Jenkin s and Tommy MacDonald’s long set shots were unmatchable. Lanky Phil Crockett and hustling Billy Wolfe always got their share of rebounds from the boards. Charlie Hester, Ed Harris, Don Patterson, and Joe LeBauer, along with the other re¬ serves, could always be counted on for back¬ ing up the starting five. They ended their season in third place. Showing some of the verve and vitality tliat made them key players all season are, left to right. Scott, forward; LeBauer, forward; Hester, center; Odom, forward; Bell, guard.

Victory!” That’s Their Cry Cheerleaders Energetic stunts and yells of the cheerleaders fired student spectators at all ball games to a more enthusiastic support of their teams. Cheerleaders also took the responsibility of decorating goal posts for home football games. Their un¬ faltering spirit, regardless of weather, kept them in the lead whenever ardent school spirit helped most. Whirlie Eleven Improves Under New Split-T Football Coach Bob Jamieson junked his double-wing formation in favor of the Split-T, but the Whirlies used nearly all of the season getting to feel at home in the new formation. After five consecutive losses at the beginning of the season, the Whirlies won four of their last six games. One of their victories was a 6-0 win over Reynolds High, which went on to capture the State Class AAA Championship. The Whirlies squeezed a 7-6 victory at Ashe¬ ville to start their spurt of victories, putting new life and energy into the team. Standouts on defense were Kirkman, a fine linebacker; Marshall, the husky lineman; and Scott, a speedy half-back. These sparked the offensive team: Wyrick, end; Yost and Rayle, quarter¬ backs; Walke, center; Canoy, tackle; Davis, back; Cameron, guard, and Chandler, tackle.

Girls’ Athletics Approximately thirty-five girls were not only active in sports but in money-making also. They sponsored the sale of sweat shirts bear¬ ing the name Greensboro Senior High in order to raise money for new basketball uni¬ forms. They always looked forward to the North Carolina Sports Day held in High Point, where the Whirlettes took second place last year. Another important event is the All-State Playday at Woman’s College, which is attended by the AAA sportsters each spring. The tennis team is new on Miss Gabriel ' s sports cavalcade.” Their fast- moving games attracted many of Senior High’s avid tennis fans. One of the most enjoyable basketball tournaments was played with the D. O. Girls. Each team won a game, ending the fun with a tie.

At the bonfire pep rally, our vig¬ orous veils blended into one mighty victory cry. “Club” offered us the chance to catch up on the latest news. Looking like a page out of “Seventeen” we made that big dance one to remember always.

Kelly Maness won a super-speed car for selling the most Youth Center memberships. After several years as director Norman Dalton left Greensboro and many sad teenagers, who really hated to see him go. However, the Loft managership was taken over by Bill McCormick, who lived up to every member ' s expectations. The carnival and square dance were two main fall events, along with the Saturday Night Club, which continued throughout the year. High-school- ers were frequently seen at the popular Youth Center, playing pool or ping-pong, watching television or eating to their heart’s content (or their pocketbook ' s limit). The Youth Center drew its biggest crowds, however, at the open house” held after each home foot¬ ball game and at the really big dances— Mid-winter and Senior Prom. It was a very happy fifth birthday for the Loft, and Ann and Tot celebrated by There was almost enough cake to go around. Year-Round Dances Jimmy Belts and Betty Bell are all smiles a: they prepare to take their places in the figure The Annual Junior-Senior Prom, held in the gaily decorated Youth Center, was a wonderful affair.

Standing: George Ferguson, Vice-Presi¬ dent; Bob Bell, Treasurer. Sponsored by the Kiwanians, the Key Club continued its services for Senior High this year. The publication of a useful student directory, an annual affair for the Key Club¬ bers, topped the list of services performed this year. More and more responsibility has fallen on the shoulders of the ever-willing boys and their adviser, Gay W. Hensley. Selling student tickets for the football and basketball games, and printing a basketball program for home games boosted school spirit. As usual, the beautiful Christmas tree in our hall was sprayed and decorated by the Key Club. Late in the spring of 1952 several members of the club attended the state con¬ vention in Asheville. After intense discussions on various school projects, the boys were honored at a banquet and a dance. All year the members enjoyed their weekly dinner meetings at the Y.M.C.A., and each week two members represented them at the Ki- wanis Club luncheon. 162 I A group of Key Clubbers pose sedately for the camera after one of their weekly dinner meetings at the “YY Key Club Members of llie Key Club are, seated.

Only the best of our athletes make up the Mono¬ gram Club. Each year the members welcome carefully selected new members. Qualifica¬ tions for membership are few, but they are difficult to achieve. A member must have won a monogram by excelling in some spe¬ cial sport: football, basketball, baseball, wrestling, swimming, track, or tennis. He must believe in good sportsmanship, and he must have good character traits. This year, headed by Paul Stanton, President; and Mr. Manzi, Adviser; the club met each week in the field house to discuss ways to promote sportsmanship. They also planned a project to help increase the Athletic Fund. The Monogram Club has certainly been a worth¬ while organization—a credit to Senior High. The members of ihe Monogram Club are, first row. Eddie Yost, Garnet Hughes, Pete Poag, Tot Wagner, Jimmy Tunstall, Diekie Chalk, Kelly Maness, Dan O’Connor.

Senior Hi-Y All the dignified young men you saw this year around the halls wearing red triangular pins with gold crosses were probably Hi-Y boys. On Monday nights at the Y.M.C.A. all twenty- five members of the Senior group met to carry out their extensive program. Usher¬ ing at home football games, raising money to contribute to World Missions, attending dinner meetings and the annual convention for all Southern states were only a few of their numerous activities.

Junior Hi-Y The Junior Hi-Y, along with its elder brother, the Senior Hi-Y, has completed another suc¬ cessful year. The members sold Christmas cards, which helped them with their annual donation of twenty-five dollars to the World Missions. They held their meetings every Monday night and had various programs with educational movies and interesting speakers. Often the members enjoyed a dinner in addi¬ tion to their regular business meeting. How¬ ever, these get-togethers were by no means all business, for they wouldn’t have been complete without the ping-pong battles. Just paddlin ' around arc the J unior Hi-Y officers: Eddie Robbins, Treasurer; Dean Soots, Chaplain; Boh Blanchard, Vice- President; Larry Welker, Sec¬ retary; Ralph Bright, President; Benton Ham, Sergeant-at-Arms.

Third row: Toni Wharton, Sonny Echols, Wesley Whitworth, Bill Simpson. Fourth row: Tim Mc¬ Collum, Kip Bachtell, Tom Sweat!. Fifth rotv: Tom Mclver, Buck Carson. Sixth row: Joe Rockwell, Brokie Lineweaver. Those sophomores really got around this year. Backing up the club every Monday night at the Y.M.C.A. was Joe Rockwell, President. Selling fluorescent house numbers in the neighborhood was the major money-making project for the Hi-Y boys. Several boys attended the South-wide co nvention at Win¬ ston-Salem. About once every six weeks their meetings were all the more popular because they were dinner meetings, usually ending with exciting pool games. “Set ’em up Joe,” say the Sophomore Hi-Y officers. Reading from the left side of the bar: Joe Rockwell, President; Wesley Whitworth, Sergeant-at-Arms; Tommy Wharton, Secretary; Arthur Balderacchi, Chap¬ lain; Tom Mclver, Treasurer; Brokie Lineweaver, Vice-President; Mr. Monday, Adviser. B - - ■ « i ||H - LM TJ r J B n Sophomore Y-Teens This year being a sophomore Y-Teen meant feeling pretty important. The meetings were interesting and projects and parties were fun. The fall dance and the party for the adviser, Mrs. Bailey, who left Senior at mid-term, were the top social events. Having a confer¬ ence in Greensboro with selected representa¬ tives from various other Y-Teen clubs over North Carolina and a meeting with other city Y-Teen officers helped this club to feel its importance and its usefulness. The best program of the year was one on Korea at which a young Korean lady talked about her country’s life and customs. The Y-Teen officers are Vivian Morgan, Vice- President; Barbara Rector, Program Chairman; Chattie Sartin, President; Nancy Sue Waddell, Secretary-Treasurer.

Mariner Scouts Train for Summer Cruises “Flying Dutchman” Troop Several weekends at Old Mill Camp con¬ vinced the girls of the Flying Dutchman that there’s no place like home.” Cooking out is okay when you ' re working on a camp activity badge, but as a permanent set up— the girls take electricity unanimously. The Old Mill outings and weekend trips to Nag’s Head and High Rock were exciting previews of the summer cruise.

This highlight of the year is the inspiration needed to prod the girls into greater efforts as they earn their ranks and badges in first aid, navigation, knot-tying, and many other fields. Under the able leader¬ ship of Sis,” more formally known as Mrs. Anne Cole Boyd, the girls have made trips to Old Mill Camp to sample the water and to practice for their sea voyage.

Rainbow The local chapter of the Order of Rainbow for Girls, sponsored by local Eastern Star Chapters and Masonic Lodges, is a compara¬ tively new organization. Although charter members were first initiated in May, 1952, the young group promises to become an out¬ standing order in the community. Christmas entertainments for those at the Masonic Home, serving at Eastern Star dinners and preparing skits for Eastern Star meetings were among the service projects. A highlight in the year’s events was the Grand Assembly, held near Lake Junaluska in June, 1952, where several hundred girls from all over the state met for both work and frolic. Rainbow officers are Annette Patton, Hope; Jerry Robinson, Worthy Associate Adviser; Peggy Gibbs, Worthy Adviser; Ann Mansfield, Charity.

Order of DeMolay Greensboro DeMolays put out the welcome mat for eighty-five delegates at the Piedmont District Convention December 27-28. A ban¬ quet at the Mayfair Cafeteria preceded the semi-formal Christmas dance which was the main event of the conclave. Local and visit¬ ing DeMolays had a gay time dancing to the music of the Desert Knights at the V.F.W. Clubhouse. Next morning the boys attended services at the First Presbyterian Church, in spite of the big night before. Another big event on December 27 was the presentation of $200 to the Cerebral Palsy Fund. De¬ Molays performed many services for their school and community. To make hot-rod drivers more conscious of safety rules, they issued safety pledge cards to G.H.S. motorists.

Civil Air Patrol Teenagers with a yen for the wild blue yonder got a lot closer to their dream at C.A.P. meetings. There all types of planes, bombs, and guided missiles became as fa¬ miliar to them as the inside of their lockers. Besides their regular weekly meetings, where they mastered air force manuals on these topics, there were regular meetings every two months with cadets of other nearby towns for discussion of mutual problems. As the C.A.P. is an auxiliary of the U. S. Air Force, every cadet feels a glow of pride in his uni¬ form.

Syitt Club The Syitt Club was formed early in the fall of 1952 by charter members, Bennett Murray, Jim Tunstall, Hal McNeely, Dick Chalk, and Donnie Evans. From time to time, others were invited to join the club, until a quota of twenty-fi ve was reached. The club’s first activity was a banquet at the S W Cafeteria to welcome the new members into the organization. Various social functions were held throughout the year. During the Christmas holidays the club pro¬ vided a needy family with food, clothing, and toys for the children. The Syitts are pleased with their new club and feel that they may look forward to many successful years. 178 The big Syitts are Hal McNeely, Secretary; Hugh Sample, Treasurer; Jimmie Armstrong, President; Gary Sheffield, Vice-President. “One for all, and all for one” loast the mighty Syitts. 179 D.

The long-dreaded initiation took place soon after, as blushing D.D.T.’s in union suits rooted at a football game. The most gala event of the year was the Christmas dance at the Greensboro Country Club and breakfast afterwards at Virginia Redhead’s. Honor guests were Mrs. Newman, club adviser, and her husband.

W. T. Club The first event after the unforgettable beach trip was the hilarious initiation which took place in front of the Carolina Theater on a Saturday night. New members, dressed in pajamas, were seen toothbrushing the side¬ walk. The G.W.I. ' s tried to make this year one filled with worthy projects. The fall meetings served a dual purpose. Helpful suggestions and words of wisdom were fre¬ quently offered by Mrs. Hansen, their new adviser. During the Christmas season they had a progressive dinner and worked in co¬ operation with the Welfare Department to make a needy family’s holidays the happiest ever. The highlight of all the social functions was the spring dance. While plans for future fun and frolic were made, they worked dex¬ terously, making joke books for the Red Cross. 182 Tin (i.W.I. officers, above right seem to he a group of real old fasliioned {{aIs.

Les Soeurs Club Les Soeurs believed that the highlight of the club’s existence was having fun—the fall carnival, Christmas floating dinner, spring festivities, and a Plantation Club dinner, with dates, to top it off. And of course the Thurs¬ day night meetings! These meetings, besides postponing homework, helped the members to get even better acquainted, and to really live up to their name. And what went on at these meetings! With twenty-one girls plus Gabe” all talking at once, there was never a dull moment. And everyone forgot pounds and complexion when refreshments were served. Initiation outfits of green and white amused the public at the S W Cafeteria and later at the Rocky Mount-Greensboro game. Be¬ sides having a Pollyanna among themselves, the club gave Christmas gifts to a needy family by way of helping others have a good time, too. Although school is out, the Les Soeurs’ fun hasn’t ended, for their summer beach trip is yet to come. 184 Decked in Kelly green, ihe new sisters await initiation.

Barbecued “Gabe” seems to be next on their menu. L. S. P. Club Somebody mention a hayride? Must have been a L.S.P. talking about that hayride at Pemberton’s with everyone rushing to Bar¬ bara Kennedy ' s house then for refreshments. For Thanksgiving the girls shined up their halos and took food and clothing to a less fortunate family. The Christmas dance and Plantation breakfast was the year ' s biggest moment for the little saints. Even aching feet and heavy eyelids could not mar so won¬ derful a night. The chaos and torture of exams were all forgotten as soon as they were over, for who could think about exams with a progressive dinner and sleeping” party scheduled next? Now as a just reward for hard work and hard play, the beach party is an awaited thrill for every L.S.P. 186 After a meeting the gals like to team up on some poor, defenseless piece of music.

This first party of the year was planned as a get acquainted celebration. The girls enjoyed lending a helping hand to a family at Thanksgiving, especially since they combined the business of collecting the food with the pleasure of a scavenger hunt. As soon as the spring thaw came, the girls put into action their carefully laid plans for a hayride. Miss Hall, the faculty adviser, who is just one of the girls,’’ was an important part of all plans, parties, preparations, and projects. With so many experiences to re¬ member, the scrapbook, a new creation in the capable hands of Chattie Sartin, is beginning to bulge with accounts of club activities.

Club If any W.S.T. were asked, Where were you on the night of November 8, 1952?” the re¬ ply would be quickly given, for all these girls and many other Senior High students take delight in remembering the W.S.T. dance at the King Cotton Ballroom. The tea for new members also stands out vividly in W.S.T. minds. Held in October, this first real taste” of dub life was a thrill for new members and a pleasure for their hostesses and older sisters.” As a fitting climax to a dramatic year, the W.S.T.’s are looking forward to their summer beach trip. Accounts of these and many other activities are being kept in a scrapbook, to remind the girls of the happy experiences of club life. 190 The officers of llie W.S.T.’s are Pally Mumford, Youth (Center Representa¬ tive; Marilyn Park, Social Chairman; Marion Thompson, Publicity Chair¬ man; Bess Bach, Treasurer; Joyce Steele, Seeretarv; Lila Ann Tice, Vice- President; Mary Hargrove, President. “What Kill Daddy say?” gasps Jennie Lou Wyrick.

May Day . . . 1952 May Day 1952 dawned crystal clear. All day there was excitement in the air, orig¬ inating with the queen and her attendants, spreading into the social clubs, physical education classes, and even reaching some members of Brooks School. For months Miss Nicholson, Miss Gabriel, and Mrs. Newman had been three queen bees in a buzzing hive. The last minute preparations were hurriedly being made by the loyal behind the scenes” workers. Finally the awaited hour arrived, and the band, directed by David Arner, sent the notes of Pomp and Circumstance” adrift on the May breeze. Once again children and grownups alike watched in wonder the age-old festivities of May Day. To entertain the huge throng in attendance, the members of the court do the minuet. Below: Some old timers from Brooks School show their Senior High neighbors how the dance should he executed. These little rag dolls are from our school nursery.

Man¬ made fibers, new products of the chemist ' s test-tube, have been a major contributor to this textile progress. A small textile producer in 1923, Burlington Mills believed in the future of rayon—an early man-made fiber. In the past 28 years Burlington has become a leader in the development and production of beautiful, durable and high-quality filament, spun and knit synthetic fabrics. From one plant with approximately 200 employees, our Company has grown to include 73 manufacturing plants in 43 communities of eight states and four foreign countries. Employing 34 000 people, Burlington is today the world’s largest producer of synthetic fabrics, and it is a recognized leader in the designing, development, research, merchandising and fashion fields as well as manu¬ facturing. If you are a young man or woman looking for a place in industry, we think you should consider textiles—and Burlington. It can hold a bright future for the person with the willingness to learn, ability to work, and the natural interest in this fascinating and competitive field. Executive Offices: Greensboro, N. C.
