IOTTLED UNDM AUTHORITY OF THE COCA-COIA COMPANY BY COCA-COLA BOTTLING COMPANY OF ASHEVILLE There's so much noise and excitement in the air lately that ye snoop columnistis inclined to agree with Mr. Seymour when he says, "A dormitory is a place where you used to be able to sleep" —Oh, well, who wants to waste the last week of school sleeping any how? We have to make time, don't we, girls and boys? There are a few faithful couples on the campus who have stuck by each other so long, I can't even remember when it all started. (And I've always been here). Bette and Jack pop into my mind first. What a couple! Kids, quit your quarreling. You're too cute to ever fuss with each other. Sara Rogers and Charlie have proved that it isn't just a slight attraction they have for each other — and so have Juanita and Gerald, Violet and "Spider"—and—well—and. Some of the kids didn't get started quite at the first of school, but they certainly made up for lost time. I'm referring to Sara and Benoy, Judy and Kenneth, Billie "Red", Dot and John, and Selma and Russell. And there are a few people that we still haven't' got figured out—Kate and Barney, Duff and "Biscuit", Frankie and Bobby, Margaret and Tommy, and Nancy and Max. And we might mention those people who had to finish the rest of the term while their boy friends left with Uncle Sam—you know— Betty and Gudger, Helen and Bob, Betty and Bob, Betty and Jack. And didn't Reuben used to entertain a Jay Johnson and Betty a certain Jimmie Bateman, back in the "good old days"? Carolyn Blakenship is on gal I'll cheerfully give an "A" on campusology ... if she improves with age the rest of us might give up; and Kat Wilson kept a pretty nice list of beaux . . . cute girl, too. Sue and Dub really kept me guessing from the first. Zelda and Merrill didn't. I believe they are a pretty perfect couple. Edna and Sam had their little romance tough from the start— Seems like Sam had to leave almost as soon as they started together . . . But don't worry about them. They both learned how to write at "Cully." W. C. T. C. girls got their share of diamonds . . . Louise Johnson and Betty Lamb were among this select group. And Daisy got two for her third finger, left hand. So many people had to leave whom we didn't want to see go. Big Four, Little Two, C6okie, Clara, Gin, and too many more. Mr. Buck is due a note of much gratitude. I bet you can't think about "Cully" this summer without remembering him and Straw and Number Ten. Anyhow, I dare you to try it. Stewart and Cherry and Dickie and Rachel seemed to have a lot of fun spring quarter. But I never found out who was with who. Spring put everyone back on their toes. Of course exams have taken us back where we came from, but maybe we'll get over them this summer. Even the practice teachers are surviving. From where I'm standing I can see Rowena and Bob spending a lot of time together in the library —studying something? Pop seemed to have a pretty good time this year . . . Did you, Pop?. Anne and Louis called it "quits" much too soon, we think. And so did Longcoy and Jayne—or have they, yet? My goodness, they won't make up their minds. Pinky Denton had a cute visitor off and on all year—I think he must like "Cully" pretty well or could, it be Pinky? And we finally saw Edna's Hugh Allen—And the students got a look at our Creas- man, last year's leader. All right now—Look back over the last nine months—You have had fun, haven't you? And met some nice people? And maybe even learned a little from books? Well, all right—If you get two out of English Club Has Spring Election The English Club held a brief meeting last Thursday to elect officers for the coming year. Miss Edna Hawkins, a rising senior, was elected president. Louise Byers and Doris Ghormley, also rising seniors, will serve as vice- president and secretary, respectively.
