JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET
About two weeks ago. the seniors
and faculty of Snow Hill High School
received invitations to "Heed the call
of the Wild; just for night be a
Gypsy child" The date was Thurs
day, May 10. The auditorium was
decorated to resemble a Gypsy camp.
In a border of pines, the tables were
arranged here and there, set with gay
checked and striped tablecloths and
candles stuck in the tops of odd bot
ties. In one corner of the auditorium
was a tent lighted by a single lantern
hung from the top of it. In the CEN
ter of the room was a large, black,
iron pot, hanging from tripod. This
Dot contained Punch, which was serv-
ed as a cocktail before the guests were
seated.
The menu was written in Gypsy
language, but in spite of the odd and
foreign-looking words, turned out to
be chicken, potatoes, peas, rolls, but
ter, coffee, olives celery, and for des-
sert cookies and vanilla ice cream
topped with crushed strawberries.
Virginia Chopper, president of the
Junior Class, gave the address of well
come, which was answered by Mabel
Jackson, president of the Senior Class.
A review of the clubs in the high
school was given by Cordelia Price
and Bobby Gordy.

line Vincent, Sarah Brown, and Irwin
Jones, respectively. Mr.. Simmons
