follow the example, or may be

out on top by the score of SX-ft
All of the backfield got their
share of the scoring with Bobby
Dukes taking it ’across three
times, Archie Ferqueron twice,
Bruce Jaynes twice, and Claude
Huguley once. The longest run
of the game was made by Bobby
Dukes who carried the “pigskin”
eighty-three yards for a touch
down. This was only one of many
long runs of the gaiqg»v Our team
worked together.
The line, too, was playing a high
grade of football and letting the
Iva boys get away with nothing.
The Iva team made very few first
downs against this forward wall.
The Panthers will play Bates-
burg-Leestfllle a return match
here in McCormick. This should
be a good game as bo^h, teams are
evenly matched.
The Panthers were the victors in
the first game by the score of 13-
6.
Chapel
For chapel Monday, October 30,
we had an unexpected, yet wel
comed, guest to speak to us. Gray-
don Dukes, U. S. N. R., a former
student of our school, was home
from the University of South Car
olina. He gave us a good talk and
I’m sure that the student body
was benefitted by his visit. It was
a real treat to have this popular
person come to our chapel.
Items Of Intent
Cliff Fleming, Herman Jen
nings, and Luhter Ferqueron vis
ited in the school this week.
The reforestation men brought a
movie to the high school Thurs
day afternoon. The grammar
school children came too, and we
enjoyed the instructive movie.
This was the first time that both
schools have been together, and
we’d like to commend the gram
mar school on the orderly way
they entered our building.
We’re happy to have Virginia
Smith return to school after havt
ing an appendix operation.

The McCormick Junior Home
Economics Association met Friday
morning, November 3rd, in the
high school auditorium.
The program was centered a-
round the initiation of the girls
taking Home Economics for the
first time. We all enjoyed the
combinations the girls were wear
ing—those pink blouses with red
skirts, high heel shoes and anklets,
weeds in their hair—even some
carried dolls.
You should have heard the pro
posals, the melodious duets and
the radio announcements.
It was all fun and to complete
the program delicious refresh
ments were served by the hostess
es, Betty Edmonds and Elizabeth
Brown.
Home Economic News
The Home Economic girls have
really been working to improve
the appearance of their room. New
curtains have been hung, the ta
bles have been covered with lino
leum, making the room more
home-like and attractive.
A number of additional books
have been added to the collection
of referfence books.
The second year girls are begin
ning to see how well they can
learn to sew. They are making
pajamas while the first year girls
are learning how to render “First
Aid” properly.
Beginning November 8th the
home economics room will be o-
jpened each Wednesday afternoon
j for the use of the public. Anyone
desiring to use the equipment
here is welcome to come. The
Home Economics teacher will be
there to offer her service. Watch
this column for an announcement
so you may come to the interest
ing and helpful demonstrations
that Miss Rucker is planning for
the public. ^
