BY RUBY WOODS

Hi Guys and Dolls since oul
last press date many events
have occurred among those arc
the parties given through the
week and the AKA Cupid's
Ball.
Feeling rather lonesome with.
out her school friends Alice
Thompson invited a few in for
q few games of cards last We'd
nesday. OF course, as usual Law
renee Samuel and / won most
of the games, guess the main
reason for our victory over
Earlyn Byas and Bernice Taylor
was the missed quite a bit of
gossip lately an they thought
this was the proper time TO
catch upon it. But for the lost
of Alice and her sister Sue
| guess they just can't play
for they certainly were doing
enough cheating to have won,
don't believe anything L said
in the above paragraph, the
reason Lawrence and l were
undcfeated is due to the fact
we were the best cheaters).
Charlotte Holt and Earlyn
Byas were really surprised
when their friends called Hap
ply Birthday Friday night. Ear
lyme was really more surprised
than Charlotte for it seems as
if Earlynn had been in On the
planning of the evening.
Talking to Charlotte last
week many of us found she
had halfway expected a sur
prise Birthday Party last Sat
urday since her birthday would
be Sunday. Having found this
fact out Alice called Earlynn
and asked her to join a few
others in giving a party for
Charlotte after helping to make
plans for Charlotte's birthday
party, Alice found out Eau lynn's
birthday would be the same
night as the party thus she de-
cided to carry out the plans of
keeping Charlotte over to Ear
lynn's house until all the guests
had arrived.
Charlotte were both greeted
with happy birthdays II was a
surprise for both of them. !
wonder until now who the most
surprised Earlyn helping to
plan the party for Charlotte
then finding she had only been
making plans for her own party
or Charlotte feeling down heart
ed for she thought her friends
had forgotten her. Can you
guess who was the most sur
prised?
