Beverly Crump May Court The realm of beauty —a world of swaying, bell-shaped dresses and gentle laughter, of charming smiles and gracious personalities — this is the special place that is the May Court. The sophomore class is well represented in this year’s May Court; two attractive girls, Barbara Corbett and Barbara Thompson, were chosen by their classmates as their ideal beauties. A classic blonde, Barbara Corbett comes to us from Chestnut Junior High School, where she served as May Queen. “Sweetie” Thompson is a Roland- Grise graduate, where she was chosen Best All Around girl by her class. Judy Bradshaw and Beverly Crump are the junior class at- tendants in the May Court. Judy is an NHHS cheerleader and a newcomer to the May Court. Beverly, a social marshal, was a sopho- more attendant last year. Seniors Fredi Crisp and Sherry Lackey are also May Court attendants for the first time. Fredi, a striking blonde, is a member of the House of Representatives. Sherry, a majorette and a member of the Hanover Singers, is a petite beauty. Well chosen and representative, these eight campus leaders epi- tomize the characteristics that bring beauty to the world and make New Hanover’s May Court the loveliest ever.

a mood of fantasy. In his arms she feels like an angel flying through the clouds. A rainbow of color surrounds her. Moss hangs gracefully from the ceiling; lights of blue, green, and gold shed a dim glow over the room; profusions of flowers embellish the tables; color- ful, delicious refreshments become a part of the inevitable festivity. A spring scene, artistically created, brings to mind thoughts of an ideal love, a night of beauty and perfection. English Leather and Chanel No. 5 mingle, mildly penetrating the cool, fresh night air as it drifts through the open door. The laughter of the happy couples near them, the tinkling of Coke bottles, the approving eyes of the chaperones, an occasional flash from the photographer’s busy camera, girls’ chatter about each others’ dresses, boys’ chatter about each others’ girls . . . activity swirls before her unnoticed, for she hears only the soft, sincere melody of ‘Moon River.” Her heart skips a beat. This dance was saved for him. 21 Team members, cheerleaders, and students celebrate the end of the season at the Football Finals Dance. King and Queen of Hearts, Earl Crisp and Tina Utsey, display their newly acquired crowns.
