An. what IS more thrilling than
sitting in a dentists chair, gazing
INTO beautiful pair of plyers and
digging fingernails into the den
tlst's arms? If you want the an
swer, I'll tell you,. Math class
Cn a Monday morning even
with the forgetting of the previous
assignment!
Well, let's get down to facts
more pleasing to the ear -. about
school. Gee, we almost won the
Gold Cup Tournament for the
basketball season. You've probably
heard the results of the games,
which were played nearly to per
fection by both our teams. The
tournament was held at the gym Of
the |Iyattsville High School on last
thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
On Thursday, the local males
played Surratsville, and the local
females played Maryland Park,
When Saturday rolled around, the
other teams began to get sort of
Jealous and the fatal blow came
AS our boys were defeated by Hy-
attsville, whose team is still in the
possession of the gold cup for the
third time in succession. Incident
ally, this game was lost by mere
e points, so, we'll get 'em next
year,
The student body of the school
selected the attendants for the
High School Queen" last week,
and in doing so, they automatically
selected the queen. It's a deep
dark secret who the queen is to
be and will remain a secret until
she marches up to be received by
her court next Friday night at
the "All Greenbelt Night" The
attendants chosen were as follows:
freshman, Carolyn Tompkins;
sophomore, Peggy Roby; Junior
Patty Day. The seniors. one of
which is to be queen and another
the maid of honor, are as follows
Louise Burke, Helen Black, Mary
Lowe, Helen Zoellner and Mary
Jean McCarl. Let's hope the best
one wins! Anyway, we all think
they're tops, and that's why it's so
hard to choose.
How bout you coming over 10
see the "All Greenbelt Night"
next Friday, p. m. at the Ele-
mentary School? The evening will
feature two basketball games be-
tween Greenbelt and Hyattsville
and the crowning of our queen. A
well-spent evening is assured. Ad-
mission is 25 cents plus 3 cents
tax.
Darn Tiny tooth hurts See
you next week-'bye. Good-bye!!

for your Identification tags next

leg without knowing it was yours,
