Clayton, and well, you know
there was a crowd.
Johnny Satterfield and his fellas
provided the music for the night S
entertainment, and they were
really ''in there" They played just
enough fast pieces to keep the
h~epsters happy, but quite enough
slow ones to let those who wanted
to do dream dancing enjoy them
selves. Balloons were hung across
the top of the orchestra pit and
in little punches all around the
floor, but long before the night
was over, they had been taken
down and either broken by dane
ers or carried home to help re-
mind someone of another super
Coast Line dance.
Both nights of Mrs. John T..
Belcher's recital were quite large
successes, but Thursday night, the
night of the younger folks, the
crowd was the largest. On Friday
the recital was perfect. and the
audience n of the most ap-
preciative yer on hand. A person
to watch in the future field of
acrobatic dancing is little Betty
TieAken who really did a grand
job with a routine done on a pair
of steps. Highlighting the recital
was the picture frame part which
enclosed a group Of young bal
lerinas who did a group dance,
and lovely Miss Charlotte Jones
who did a toe solo. Not to be out
done, the male students of the
dancing school rendered a Russian
dance which was quite an &C
complishment. They were Sam
Johnson, Joe Gerhardt Whilden
proved that girls aren't the only
ones who have poise and grace by
executing one of the most grace
full tap routines I've seen in quite
sometime. All in all, it was a
grand revue, and I know that whit
|le coming years, TN e students
will perfect their talent and really
give shows that everyone will en-
joy.
Because everybody enjoyed
themselves so very much at the
last house-party, the ex = senior
girls are contemplating having an
other. Of course the money used
to finance the last one came from
the Hi-Y chapter treasury and was
money that had been saved for
two years, but donations from the
girls themselves will finance this
one. Mary Anne Spillman is the
instigator, an dive r indebted to
her for getting us together for an

1t seems as if strangers have

least it seemed that way this past
week. There we're two or three big
house-parties going on down there,
and the people were either from

heaps, too. It is to start today

heard some of the girls who were
working say they were going to
quit their jobs so they could go.
I don't know whether or not they
were serious, but those who aren't
able to make it are really going
to miss a swell time. If you have
any spare time and want to have
lots of fun, just drop IN on us
down at the beach. But this time
please let us know if you're going
to be there for a meal!
Model airplane fans don't forget
that this Monday night at 7:30 is
the date of the club meeting, and
the Tide Water building is the
place. Plans are being made for
the meet to be held here on June
% to determine the winner to go
to the national meet in Chicago,
so if you want to get in On the
winnings, be at the meeting. The
Exchange club is sponsoring the
club this year, and it is under
the personal supervision of DR..
Ronner. The younger booys are en-
%couraged 10 join. So grease up
that little airrlane motor and
patch those wings and come on
out to the meet. Be might glad
to have you!
June Is marks the close of the
local Second and Orange USO. Sat
urday night, June Is, the final
dance will be held, Old South be-
ing the theme. We want to give
the Y a k e e s something really
southern to remember us by.
Don't forget that although every
day should be parents day, each
of them have a very special day
of their own Now it's fathers
time to come to the front. SO be
thinking about something to give
him that will show him how yer
much he means to you, and how
much you DO appreciate all the
things he does for you. More than
any other member of the family,
l think the father is taken for
granted. But he likes to be re
membered with little gifts and
nice things, too, even if he does
think you're silly to get excited
when that special some one calls
you or when you hear a record
that you know must have been
written for your very own love at
fair. Fathers love us very much,
too, although they don't want us
to think they're soft or senti-
mental. So when June Is comes
give Dad a present at breakfast,
maybe a loud tie or a shaving
set, or anything you know he
specially likes but won't take the
time to buy for himself. Maybe
lie won mank you protuSely, bu'
deep in his heart he'll know vol
were thinking about him, and he'll
be grateful.
l think summer is about to make
it here at last, so get out YOU
bottles of Gaby and those ga,
beach towels, and head for tn
beach. That's where almost every
body spends their spare time thess
days, except for those OF US WHIT
r working. But even we fine
spare time for a dip in the deep
SO have fun. The summer will g
by quicker than you think, ant
