I can't help worrying about what is happening to the newspaper profession. One normally thinks of the editor of a small town weekly paper as a hardworking person who scarcely has time to breathe until after publication day each week. A certain editor I know, however, refutes that long suffering belief. (Note: Any similiarity to editors living or dead surprises me just as much as it does you.) Tuesday after lunch, he disappeared with an undisclosed local banker in the direction of Attapulgus, and I am reasonably sure he played golf because on his return he called, "Fore" every time he started through the office.

Wednesday afternoon was even worse. The associate editor (alias Mrs. Boss) played bridge, and shortly after she left, Mr. Boss and George sneaked out of the office with a "there's a ballgame going on" gleam in their eyes. That left only Carolyn and Junior and yours truly to run things in the office. They sat at the desks looking important and giving me orders while I, bearing in mind the importance of the newspaper to world freedom, ran the press, cast mats, made up pages and swept out trash. (If the boss happens to read this and wants to reward me for my services above and beyond the call of duty, my favorite color is green. Green as in money, that is.)

We intended putting a three column picture of Kenneth Cowart on the front page this week, but we had trouble in making it print properly. These are some things our old press simply refuses to do. Kenneth, as you know if you read the social pages of the Herald (plug for Carolyn) went to a meeting of the Grand Lodge of Florida in Jacksonville this week. I'm expecting to see his picture on the front of the Florida Times Union any day now.

You see me in the above cut (photo) practicing up on what Mr. Harris taught me while he was here. For the information of the uninformed, I am setting hand type, which is a job the boss gave me after which he pied a whole case one (typed as written) Thursday morning a few weeks ago. Ask him about it sometime--he loves to talk about it.

I see by the paper that it's getting time to drag out my softball bat, glove and balls and begin spring training. My main trouble is that if I practice very much, I'm so much better than the rest of the local players that they won't let me play. Sometimes being a genius doesn't pay off.
THE OFFICE CAT.

"The Sugarfoot Minstrel," to be presented at the school auditorium, Thursday, April 28, by the Havana Kiwanis Club, will feature a cast of twenty four talented local comedians, singers and dancers. Admission for the performance is 75c for adults and 35c for children.

The black face cast, in addition to usual end men and songsters this year will include six chorus girls as an added treat.

The auditorium doors will swing open at 7:30 p. m., and a concert by the Havana High School band, under the direction of Henry Blake, is scheduled to begin at 7:45.

The first act of the main attraction will begin with an opening chorus by the entire company at 8:15. From there to the finale, the show is a hilarious collection of patter, jokes and minstrel songs.

A program of stunts and musical numbers will be given by the band between acts of the minstrel.

The Sugarfoot quartette, composed of Mrs. G. H. (Jo) Loch, Miss Sarah Helen Bruce, H. N. (Hobson) Alewine and John Keith, will be on hand for harmony, while Ed Bell as E. Pluribus, C. W. Tullos as Delirium, and Lloyd Greer as Catfish, should make for anything but harmony. James Mitchell will act as interlocutor, and singers, in addition to the quartette, are Mrs. Hugh (Louise) Blackburn as Dardanella, Mrs. Joe (Dixie) Carroll as Miss Unum, C. B. Shelfer as Jackson, Herschel Darsey as Houston, and Sheldon Loch as Tambo.

End men include John Keith as Friday, W. L. Williams, Jr., as Bojangles and Fred Arrington as Africa. The rest of the circle is composed of Kiwanians Wallace Shelfer, Benny McFarland, Kenneth Cowart and H. N. Alewine.

A partial list of subjects on which you may get helpful advice from the minstrel characters are girl trouble, travel, banking, music, love, burglars, Alabama, and doctors. The second act ends with a radio quiz contest in which all contestants make a perfect score, all wrong. A jitterbug contest with chorus girls and members of the cast participating is also scheduled.

H. N. Alewine is directing the production, proceeds from which will be used by Kiwanis for charity projects.

We think you'll miss a treat if you fail to see "The Sugarfoot Minstrel."

Six teams will open a 36 game schedule May 9th in the Gadsden county softball league this year.

One Havana team has been dropped from the league and a new team playing for REA will take its place. The rapid schedule will wind up July 29th, earlier than last year, with each team playing three games a week on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. Playoffs are scheduled from August 1st to 15th.

The Rappers will open in Havana with the Presbyterian, Greensboro plays REA in Greensboro and the Baptists, last year's winners, will meet the Methodist in Quincy to get the season underway.

The managers, who met in Quincy last night, named Aubrey Butler of Havana, league president, with Benny McFarland of Havana, A. B. Blackman of Quincy and Harry Anderson of Greensboro on the grievance committee.

The home team is to furnish two new balls of the same make and the umpires for the game. Single games will start at 8:15 and double headers at 8:00 p. m. A ten man team will be used playing official softball rules and the same ground rules as last year.

Each club will be permitted to carry a 20 man roster and the addition of new men must be made 15 days prior to the final series or switches in players, 20 days before the playoffs.

Alex McMillan, competing in the district Future Farmers of America, public speaking contest in Quincy Saturday, won second place among five contestants entered.

Alex was awarded the honor for his delivery of a speech entitled "Our Fountain of Life", with which he eliminated Charles Lester in preliminaries held at the Father & Son banquet here recently.

First place in the contest was won by Starling Glisson of the Quincy Chapter.

Havana's parliamentary procedure team, composed of Wister Willis, Winston Carter, Alex McMillan, Earl Moore, Billy Edmunds and Bernard Blackwood, placed second at the meeting Saturday with four teams competing. Quincy also carried off top honors for parliamentary procedures.

The local FFA softball team was defeated by Greensboro, 30-2, in a game played here Tuesday night.

The Havana High School Bears baseball team teed off against Panama City last Thursday afternoon in their initial game of the season and defeated the boys from Bay by a terrific score of 15-5.

Coach Max Walker's boys started hitting hard in the frist inning when they scored three runs and never stopped until the last out was made. The score indicates that the Bears are in mid season form but the total of six errors piled up by the Bruins says there is a lot of polishing to be done.

Howard "Ace" Gray started the game for the Bears and held down Bay High's Tornadoes with five hits. He has previously been noted for his fast ball, but he displayed flawless control and a curve that set his opposition down with 13 strikeouts. On the mound for P. C. was Lundstedt but after Havana jumped on him in the first inning for three runs, Coach Weeks was forced to relieve him with Millis, who slowed down the fire and finished the game.

Dick Williams, the Bruins' crack left fielder, lead his mates at the bat with a home run, double, and a single in three trips for a perfect day at the plate. Lead off man, Junior Harvell kept the team rolling by laying down two perfect bunts in five trips. David Burns, the big clean up hitter for Havana, also contributed a double and a single to his team mates grand total of twelve hits.

Defeat Blountstown

The Bear nine continued to click as it moved to Blountstown Friday and handed them a 16-8 shellacking. After piling up a sizeable lead in the first three innnings, the Havana mentor, Coach Max Walker, started shifting his men to various positions.

On the mound handling the hurling chores for Havana was "Lefty" Garrett Brooks. Brook's sharp breaking curve puzzled the Blountstown nine and he set them down with two hits.

Doing the heavy hitting for the Bears, was again Dick Williams, who collected four hits for five trips, all four being singles. Dan Miller also collected two doubles and a single for four trips to the plate.

In the seventh inning, Brooks was relieved by another left hander, Earl Moore, but Moore walked four men and failed to retire the side. Coach Walker's next selection was short stop, Emory Atkinson, who also showed a bit of wildness and yielded a hit. In the end, third baseman Corry Johnson came in and put out the fire that had cost the Bears eight runs.

Editorial - "Give"
By Don Butler

(The official Red Cross Drive has been closed in our community, but it failed to reach the goal. Contributions will still be accepted. It is with that in mind that this article is written.)

Everyday people somewhere are dying of malnutrition and suffering from privation. It is hard for us, the ones who have enough food to eat and clothes to wear, to visualize this, but for some unfortunate people it is a reality that has to be faced!

The Red Cross is one organization which helps these needy people. It serves the entire world, furnishing food, clothing, and protection for those who, otherwise, would not receive this aid. But this organization cannot be operated and maintained on air, or wishful thinking. In our age it takes money, and lots of it, to operate world wide organizations. Since the Red Cross is a non profit organization, operating solely for the benefit of under previleged people, the money for its operation must come directly from the people.

Everyone knows about the Red Cross "drives", the majority of people support them! The money contributed is not enough; the clothes donated are not enough; there is a constant need for more!

The next time you start to a movie or to buy an ice cream, think about a poor unfortunate who does not have even the bare necessities of life. Put that money into the Red Cross fund. If you will do this, you can be sure that someone, somewhere, thanks you from the bottom of their heart!

Remember, someone is depending on you for his very life!

Who's Who Our who's who comes from the eighth grade. She has light brown hair, grey green eyes, and is about five feet three inches tall. She is in the Dramatic Club and has been in many of the plays. She is usually seen with Bobbie Durban or Betty Chester. We can't find out who her boyfiend is, but we know she has one. Her nickname is "Nita", which certainly gives her away.
[Note by Angela Cassidy: This would be Eunita Lashley.]

Last week's Who's Who was Wister Willis.

Grade News

Third Grade

We are all excited about the Easter vacation and we are making easter decorations for our room. In arithmetic, we have taken up something new, multiplication. We are working hard at it and like it very much. It seemed good to see the sun after about two or three days of rain.

Fourth Grade

We are going to get out of school tomorrow. Allen, Eddie, Julia, Pat and Betty had to stay in. We have just about finished our reading book.
Richard Gandy.

Sixth Grade We have been studying about the Great Awakening in History. We made talks and pictures over it Monday. We are getting ready for the May Festival. Gwen Patman has a broken arm and cannot write because it is her right arm. We have been having a devotion every morning for the past week or two. Mary D. Woodbery, Grace Colvin, Winston Colvin, Carolyn Hay, Betty Whittle and David Stallings are absent. Barbara Lou Crispin left for New York Saturday.

Eighth Grade A few members of the eight grade Dramatic Club presented the play entitled "Party Dress" for PTA Tuesday, April 12th. It was a very cute play which centered around some teenage girls and boys, who were going to a formal dance.

Mary Ann Butler, Margorie Moreland, Eunita Lashley, Gail Cooper and Mary Lou Gandy, along with Carol Ellinor, Margaret Miller and Miss Grant represented the Havana FHA Chapter recently in St. Augustine at the FHA State Convention.

Ninth Grade

Emory Atkinson and Lee Butler from our grade are going to Panama City to play baseball. The girls are awaiting the time to model their garments in the fashion show to be held when everyone has finished sewing.

Tenth Grade

Mr. Walker has moved some of the boys around in our room. I wonder if it was for talking or to get them from the back of the room. We saw a movie on hunting and fishing that sure was a good panther hunt.

Eleventh Grade

Don Butler, our noted poetry writer, has entered a poetry contest and we hope he will do well. The class, as a whole, has been planning ways to spend the money we have worked to make.

Twelfth Grade

We received our invitations and have been measured for our caps and gowns. It doesn't seem that this should be "our" year, but almost everyone says he is ready to graduate. We finished our Economic Geography book last Thursday but we will start reviewing all of it now. In English, we have taken up public speaking and writing.

Around The Town
By Miss Teen

Betty Jo, did you and Mary Ed decide you didn't like those Georgia and Illinois boys?

If Bobby Hilton can't get the girl he wants then his "old flame" will do. Huh, Bobby!

Joe Cantey, what happened to your belt or did your girl give you those suspenders.

A blond hair was found on Martha Pearl's coat the other day.

Audrey Ann (Blackmon) seemed mighty close to W. H. Butler at the progressive supper the other night.

Bert Cliatt and Betty Lou Harvell stayed together fairly much, also.

Howard Gray was also present. Can you guess whom he was with?

Dick Fischer and Hunter Mc. (McCullough), and all you boys that walk around in a daze, wake up and get a girl.

Ray Mc. (McClellan), seems to occupy the same desk as Orien Womack.

Who is Charles Lindell, Tootsie (Margaret Miller)? Does Don (Butler) know about him?

Also Mary Ann B. seems very interested in a boy from St. Augustine named Jack.

Annette (Darsey), how do you like your future college? Ray (Gregory) certainly doesn't. Too far away he says.

What did Joe Cantey say Sunday night that started such an argument between Barbara (Powell) and Jimmie (Boynton)?

Bobby Harrell certainly can't seem to make up his mind. He wrote an eight page letter to Ella Jean (Driver).

Does Pat Gray still think "fondly" of a certain young man about town? Couldn't be the one that drives a blue Ford Convertible, could it?

Dickie Fischer certainly didn't seem to mind being crowded Tuesday night after play practice. He had better watch Dick Williams, though.

And also Wed. night Bobbie Willis had some trouble finding a place for Joe Butler and his friend to sit last Thursday. Miss Brown ran them out of the library.

The high school girls must have a fad of collecting boys' pictures. Betty Chester had one of a very good looking boy and Margaret Vickers had one of Don Porter, her heart throb.

That certainly was a cute boy Lillie Poppell was with Sunday afternoon. She has a boyfriend for Sunday and one for Saturday. Does Jeanette P. have a Ga., boy, too.

One boy was heard to say "when Concord girls and Georgia boys go together, they're bound to get married." Better watch out girls.

Presenting The Seniors

Joseph Cantey

Joseph Tatum Cantey, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. S. (Joe and Nellie) Cantey, was born March 5, 1931 in Bainbridge, Georgia. He started to school in Havana during the first term of his school career and has been taking part in the school activities ever since.

He is a member of the Presbyterian church and the HHS band.

His favorite sports are riding horses and hunting. His plans for the future include attending the University of Florida to study agriculture.

Lillian is the associate Society Editor of the school paper and has the part of Mrs. Hudson in the Senior play.

Cantey Attends State FFA Executive Meeting

Joe Cantey attended a meeting of the State FFA Executive Committee in Daytona Beach the 8th and 9th. The purpose of this meeting was to make plans for the State Convention which was set for June the 13th through the 17th in Daytona Beach. Each chapter will be represented by two delegates at the convention. The activities of the delegates consists of business meetings and contests which include public speaking, parliamentary procedure, string band, and many others. At this time, many awards and degrees will be given to boys who have done outstanding work in the organization. Interesting talks by prominent men of the state will be an added feature. The finale of the convention, a banquet, is always a gala occasion.

FHA News

The bi-monthly meeting of the FHA was held Tuesday night, April 12, in the Home Economics Department with twenty members present.

President Annette Darsey called the meeting to order and the chapter dispensed with the usual business as quickly as possible so that reports from the delegates to the convention in St. Augustine could report. The only matter of new business decided was to elect officers for the coming year at the first night meeting in May.
