Last Thursday night the an
nual bonfire and pep rally prov
ed to be a big success. Over
two hundred people joined in.
At thirteenth and Ann, Fayette-
vile was burned to the tune Of
taps. Gas you all must realize,
it was really a very sad night.)
After the bonfire the crowd join
ed hands in single file and pa
raded down Market to the post
office. There everyone gave out
with their best yelling and it
really helped to bring everyone
and everything back into the old
grind once more. After the pep
rally we were all so excited
over the game that the whole
town was aroused by the noise.
Oh! Well! It's only a once a
year. All of this big occasion
was sponsored by the cheerlead-
ers and they would like to thank
the police for leading us through
the streets and the fire depart
ment for coming to the bonfire
just to play safe Thanks!
At three-fifteen Thursday aft
ernoon, the ROTC band march
ed downtown in a parade to
advertise their approaching
magazine subscription drive,
Red feathers were worn by all
of the band members to help
boost the Community Chest
Drive. Another feature of the pa
rade were the decorated cars.
The cars were judged and Joan
jacob won first prize.
Friday night the Fayetteville
Bulldogs defeated the Wildcats
1870 in a tough battle. Disre-
garding the rain, the Wildcats
fought, but in vain. Fayetteville
now is making plans for the
state championship battle since
they have proved themselves the
Eastern Conference champs.
After the game, the Teen-Age
club entertained at their weekly
dance in honor of the football
teams. Due to the heavy rain
the crowd was decreased, but
still there were many. There
were few of the Fayetteville
fans for most of them left, to
attend house-party at Lake
Waccamaw.
Next Saturday night has been
set aside for the first ROTC ball.
The boys have made big plans
and say it will be the
best. There are few dances at
our high school that are formal
and this is one all of the girls
look forward to them. There will
be a nine piece band, namely
Bobby Haas, and from every
thing that I've heard it really
will be the best. There will be
receiving line composed of the
five ROTC sponsors, their COM
manding officer and vari-
Gus military officials. The dance
is financed by donations from
the ROTC boys. The dance will
be in honor of the company 10
mating the most. This really
should make the boys give gen.
erously for it should be a great
honor to have the dance in their
honor. How about it boys!
That's about all for now, but
please don't forget to hand in
your proofs before Wednesday.
Thank you'll!

region Of Neny Island.

morning was spent hunting seals and

meat for our huskies for week. The
hunters returned that day. leaving

tent on kae Antarctic sl,oreline
within 20 feet Of the high-tide mark,
where the ground was level.
For the next two and a half days,
the men cralnmed the few daylight
hours with intensive geologic re-
search. Iron that's" resulting from
the weathering Of pyrite and other
iron bearing minerals were abun-
dant and thin films Of malachite
and copper ore were reported at
several places. Not one OF these
occurrences had any economic value:
but, the geologists say. their exist
ence suggests that deposits econom-
ically workable might be found IN
this part Of the Antarctic.
Study Of q prominent elevated
beach about 90 feet above sea level
indicates that the carth's crust has
moved upward In this area In recent
geologic time. This movement prob
ably was due to q melting of Ant
arctic glaciers, decreasing the weight
