Latest Talk In Movies

‘April Love” seems to be the big
movie around Lexington now It
was made here and just about
everyone tried their luck in the
acting field. (011 a very small
scale of course)! If they weren’t
lucky enough to get a job in it,
they went to the track and were
part of the crowd

The movie itself turned out to
be excellent Pat Boone played his
part extremely well and Shirley
Jones also did a fine acting job
Arthur O’,Connell a co- -star in the
film who is known for his academy
award Winning role in “Picnic,”
added a bright spark to the movie.

The filming of “April Love” in
Lexington was a tribute to the
Blue Grass country. The surround-
ings looked very familiar and
turned out beautifully.

It was really very exciting to see
a genuine Hollywood Production
being filmed in Lexington.

It has been called to our atten-
tion that quite a few of the grad-
uates from U-Hi have been in
various musical groups. This credit

gshould go to Mrs. Ruth Osborne,

who has done a wonderful job
with the music department at Uni—
versity High.

Anne Moody is in a small vocal
group at All Saints School in Mis—
sissippi. Jeanie Robinson, a senior
at Gulf Park; Betty Hays at
Sophia Newcomb; and Lois Mere-
wither, a sophomore at Pine Minor,
have also joined various vocal
groups. Peggy Cowgill and Drue
Cox are members of the “chorus-
ters" at UK.

The fellows have also done very
well in singing. Hunter Platt at
Princeton; Bobby Griffin, a fresh-
man at Washington and Lee;
Mitchell Gail, a junior in high
school at Exeter; and Vertrees Hol-
lingsworth at Yale have all joined
in their specific singing groups.

These are just a few of the stu-
dents that have been successful in
carrying on their singing ability.
Congratulations to all these for-
mer graduates and to Mrs. Os-

borne.

The Significance of Christinas

Christmas is the season for the giving and receiving of gifts
and best wishes. It is also the season for sharing and realizing
how thankful we should be for what we have and how fortunate
we are.

we as individuals should think of others and receive enjoy-
ment from doing things for them.

\Vhen we stop to think why we exchange gifts we are im—
mediatgly reminded of the spiritual significance of Chirst‘s birth
and all that he represented in the sharing with us of his teach-
ings and even of his life. It is this spirit of unselfishness that
should prompt the age-old custom of remembering our friends
and loved—ones on this most important of all holidays.

It should be remembered when Christ said “it is better to
give, then to receive” he did not restrict these remarks to the
holiday season but undoubtedly intended that this feeling of

good-will should extend throughout everyday of every year.
L.T.G.

Are Today’s Schools “Soft”?

One of the most current topics in the news today concerns
what should be taught in our schools. Newspapers are proclaim-
ing that our schools are “soft” compared to the ones of other
countries, and this idea has hit hard and struck home. Editorials
are giving as one reason, that Today‘s Curriculum contains many
subjects valued by the students primarily because they are
recognized to be easy to pass . . . “pushovers”. The student to-
day supposedly chooses his courses on the basis of how little
work they require, rather than the amount of valuable learning
he can receive from them. The writers of these editorials also
feel that the student cannot be entirely blamed for his lack of
enthusiasm as few really stiff courses are required for a high
school diploma. Naturally, after the few required courses have
been completed in the early high school years, since his require-
ments have been met, there are no barriers against him doing so.

But do we want the same principles applied for our students
as for those of other countries? Do we believe that concentrated
.learning is the most important single factor today? Do we be-

lieve that it is of more importance then learning to adjust so-i

cially, and to the world about us? Perhaps the COmmunists
criticize us for placing too much emphasis on extra-curricular
activities such as sports, clubs and dances. However, we be—
lieve these things are an important part of our democratic way
of life, and for that reason we continue to uphold them.

Do you believe that there is a problem about today’s schools?
If so, what is the solution and what should be done to reach it?
What is your opinion?

Student Government

The Student Government has
proved itself to be very efficient
and capable of its duties. One of
its latest projects was the printing
and distributing of its constitution.
In the near future the organiza—
tion is planning to mimeograph
copies of the bylaws and distribute
them to the students so they will
be better informed on the subject.

Student Government has made
violent protests concerning the
condition of the bathrooms and
the defaceing of the walls.

Student Council

The past two weeks the Student
Council has been sponsoring a
clothing drive for the United Na—
tions. All of the schools of the.
nation have been participating in
this project. All of the students
from kindergarten through twelfth
grade have helped by donating
clothing.

At most of the meetings there
have been discussions on improve-
ments for the school. The repre—
sentatives are planning a schedule
which will be submitted to the
faculty for approval.

i Senior Play was Funny

On November 16 the Senior Class
donned their costumes and
make-up to present their produc-
tion of "Best Foot Forward.” "Best
Foot Forward" had a long run on
Broadway and was later made into
a movie, both starred June Allison.
Not expecting to mark the other
performances of this play, but
striving to do their best the actors
and actresses were ready. The

and the sets completed. The weeks
of hard work and fun were about
to pay off.

When the curtain opened a set
of a typical boy‘s room was seen,
with the usual bits of masculine
odds and ends tucked into various
nooks and cranies. Two very ex-
cited boys, Dutch Miller (Charles
Stewart) and Hunk Hoyt (Bill
Bryan) were attempting to make
their room look more feminine for
the girls. From the Very first lines
there were hardly five minutes
that the audience was not in
stitches. The majority of the
humor was very subtle and put
over very well.

Lindsay Nunn, Charlie Turnbull,
Lady Greenslit, and Bradley Swit—
zer did Wonderful jobs in the main
parts; however, there were no real
bit parts and the supporting cast
did a fine job.

Some of the views expressed
were, “Best amateur performance
in years," “Held your interest from
start to finish," ”Couldn‘t have
been funnier.”

A fine job was done by everyone
and they should all be commended
for their work. The play was ex-
cellent.

Now that the grease paint is
gone and the stage is back to
normal, the members of the Senior
Class hope that their play pro-
vided an entertaining evening for
all.

Senior Dance

On December fourteenth the
seniors had their annual Christmas
dance in the gym. The theme of
the dance was “Winter Wonder-
land” and Frank Wagner provided
the music. Among the selections
chosen for the “no-breaks” were
“Stardust," “Love is a Many
Splendored Thing”, “Winter
Wonderland”, “Silver Bells”, “Ten-
derly”, and White Christmas”.

Before the dance Lady Greenslit
gave a dinner party for the seniors
and their dates, and following the
dance Pegsie Lisle gave a slumber
party for the senior girls.

To organize this dance, several
committees were chosen, such as
the decorations committee, which
included Pegsie Lisle, Lucy Manley,
Ernest Clark, Bradley Switzer, and
Bill Yousey. The music committee
which included Pegsie Lisle, Lucy
Manley, Louise Spinney and Brad-
ley Switzer, was another impor-
tant committee chosen. The bid
committee was made up of Shelia
Hargett, Mary Anderson, Jim Var-
ellas, Charley Turnbull, and Vir-
ginia Prewitt.

 

About My School

Sometimes I get down right sick
of people saying “Why don’t you
all win any basketball games?" or
“Why doesn’t U—Hi have a football
team?" At this point I start to
tell them that we have a little
school and not very many boys
from which to choose. We don’t
ever have enough males to have a
good basketball team much less
have a football team.

When I start giving these ex-
cuses, I’m not really telling the
truth. The truth is that our bas—
ketball players are more interested
in making “A’s” than in playing
basketball. If you will take a look
at some of our starting five, you
will see some of the best students
in the High School. The others
are fair students, but take part in
many outside activities. What I’m
really trying to say is, that a
school’s reputation is not built on
athletic ability, but on its scho-
lastic ability. If you will consult
the records, you will find for the
number of students in the school
U-Hi does exceedingly well in all
types of contests including Na-
tional Merit, College Boards, Edu-
cational Development Tests, and
various speech contests. The people
who graduate from U-Hi have a
reputation for being socially ad-
justed and well informed. Many
of our graduates have been elected
to Phi Beta Kappa, which is the
highest scholastic organization in
which a college person can be
elected.

Next time someone says some-
thing about your school, don’t be
embarrassed, just be thankful you
are going to U-Hi.

Shelia Hargett

One of the personality girls of
the month is Miss Shelia Hargett,
a very active member of the
Senior Class. This blonde-haired,
blue-eyed gal is well-liked by
everyone, as shown by her mem-
bership in many organizations.
She is a member of the Glee Club,
Pep Club, Y-Teens, Quartet, and
President of Little Choir.

Shelia has been with us since
the second grade, and soared to
great heights by becoming a
dancer in the sixth grade play,
“Cinderella”. She has also been
a great help in our productions of
the seventh and eighth grade
plays, and the Senior Play.

Shelia has confessed that her
Senior year has been the most fun
and also the saddest, because after
this year, the Seniors won’t be
together.

Shelia’s plans after high school
are to attend college, preferably
Miami University, for a reason
very important to her. His name
is Pat Molloy, and he is evidently
Shelia’s ideal man.

If she ate most of the time, she
would probably eat cold fried
chicken, cheeseburgers (from
Jerry’s, of course) and that after-
meal treat, a Hit Parade.

It is hard for Shelia to tolerate
people who don't answer her
friendly “hello!", while she likes
people who are fun to be with.
neat, and just great all-round per-
sonalities.

Again to the field of music, she
loves good popular songs, and can
certainly come forth with a pretty
nice rendition of her own on the
piano.

All in all, Shelia is one of the
greatest girls at U-Hi, and we all
wish her the best of the “besties”
in the future.

Chuck Maxson

Charles Reynolds Maxson Jr.
entered U-Hi in 1955 as a sopho-
more. Before 1955 he had gone to
school in his home town of Elm-
hurst, Illinois. Although he has
only been a member of our school
and community for three years, he
will be long remembered after his
graduation this June.

Charles has quite a collection of
nicknames. He is known to most
of us as Chuck, but his family
calls him Charlie. Another nick-
name we would like to mention is
“Silent Chuck.” This was pinned
on him after his outstanding tele-
vision performance in October, by
Len Carl who “emceed” the TV
show.

Chuck’s main interest is sports
and he has shown himself quite
talented in the field. He has been
an outstanding member of the
basketball team for three years.
This year Chuck’s determination

and fight have been a valuable

asset to the team. His only regret
is that U-Hi doesn’t have a foot-
ball team, as he loves to play.

Music is another interest of
Chuck’s. He is in the Glee Club,
of which he is Vice President, the
boys group and was a member of
this year’s fall chorus. Chuck also
enjoys listening to records. His
collection includes everything from
Gene Krupa to the college drink-
ing songs.

Chuck has reached great heights
in the field of journalism this year.
He was elected assistant editor of
the sports section of the 1958 an-
nual.

Chuck’s friendliness, smile, and
especially the noise he makes
like a baby bear will be missed in
years to come. (Especially by a
certain sophomore girl.)

Christmas Here And

In Germany
By DUDLEY MILWARD

Christmas, a happy time when
people go to church and give pres—
ents, is one of the few things that
has remained pretty much the
same in the fast-changing world
of today. Perhaps this is because
in Germany, where most Christmas
customs came from, and in Amer-
ica, a “melting-pot” of all peoples
and customs, Christmas has such
a deep-rooted, sentimental impor-
tance.

Legends say the first Christmas
tree appeared over 1200 years ago
in Germany. Winifred, an English-
man who had gone to Germany to
teach about Jesus, came across a
group of people at the Oak of
Geismar. They were about . to
sacrifice little Prince Asulf to
Thor, but Winifred stopped them
and cut down the tree. As it fell,
a young fir tree appeared in its
place, and Winifred told the people
about Jesus’ birth, saying the new
tree was Christ, or the tree of life.

Today, at dusk of Christmas
Eve, the door of every German
living room is flung open, revealing
a little tree ablaze with lights.
German trees are decorated with
nothing but candy and lights, and
each person’s presents are in a
pile under the tree.

Americans have not confined
Christmas decorations and trees
to the home. Each year, lights
and outdoor scenes of the Nativity
go up in every city and town. And
in New York and Chicago, huge
trees are raised and set aglow with
colored lights.

Also in the United States, many
groups celebrate a White Christ—
mas by bringing gifts of food wrap-
ped in white, placing them around
a Christmas tree, and singing
carols. Later the food is sent to
poor families. Germany‘s counter-
part to this is found in Bavaria,
when on November 30, the Kloep—
finaechte, or Knock Nights, begin.
Children and needy adults parade
through the streets at night, sing—
ing carols and collecting food from
those they visit. They also drive
away the evil spirits by ringing
bells and knocking at the doors
with hammers and brushes.

Our Santa Claus is a composite
of many Old World “Santas” and
it may seem confusing to us when
we learn that in Germany there
are four of them. They have Sankt
Nikolaus, who comes on Dec. 6;
Kriss Kringle, a little girl who is
the messanger of the .Christ Child;
the Christ Child Himself, who
comes on foot bringing gifts to
the Germans, and Weihnachts-
mann, or the Christmas Man, who
comes on Dec. 25. Their Christ-
mas lasts from December 6 through
the 26!

Sankt Nikolaus brings apples,
nuts and small toys to good chil—
dren, and points out the bad chil-
dren. Americans do much the same
thing when they tell their children
there won’t be any presents unless
they are good.

The Christmas Man, instead of
riding a sleigh pulled by eight rein-
deer, rides a white horse through
the sky. German boys and girls,
hoping he will bring them some-
thing, place a shoe in the fireplace

Y-Teens

The Y-Teens recently held a
scavenger hunt to collect food for
a needey family. A few of the
members. mostly seniors, met at
the Y.W.C.A., and left in cars to
collect the food. The scavenger
hunt was a great success; enough
food was provided to give the
family a wonderful Thanksgiving
dinner.

The Y-Teens have been very
active at Manchester Center this
year. A Halloween party was given
for the children, at which they
played games and had refresh—
ments. Decorations and favors
were provided at the party. The
Y-Teens have also been entertain-
ing the children by playing with
them and reading to them on
Saturday mornings.

In spite of all the customs that
are no longer completely German,
there are some still unique to the
small villages of Germany’s Ba-
varia. Here, on December 6, the
villagers run around clad in straw
and ringing cowbells. They accom-
pany Sankt Nikolaus and the
Gangerl (a devil-like creature)
from door to door. They also shoot
off medieval firearms. Their pur-
pose, like that of the people who
go out on Knock Night, is to ward
off evil spirits.

Christmas customs are interest-
ing and varied, as are the greetings
(German say “Froeliche Wein-
achten”), but these are only a few
of the traditions that make Christ—
mas the best-loved season of the
Christian world.

great in their good-looking tailored l
