If you thing I haven't had a time this week trying to get out the Herald practically single handed, you're wrong. Mrs. Boss was worried about not having anyone to set (Type, that is) since George is away on vacation this week, but Clarence Pearce very sagely noted that Kenneth Cowart would be the ideal man for the job. Clarence claims that Kenneth is by far the best "setter" in town. Note to Kenneth: Sentiments expressed herein belong to C. O. Pearce and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the writer. We solved the problem another way, however, H. A. Brown and Nick Wheeler came over from the Democrat office in Tallahassee to help us out part time. They are always willing to set type for us provided they are allowed to read a certain column on the front page which is noted for its sparkling witticisms and intellignet comments on a variety of subjects.

But back to my original subject: this, as both of my faihtful readers know, is my second anniversary with the Herald. And how do I spend it? Sweeping, carrying out the trash, and being insulted by Junior, who, also vacationing, comes loafing by the office to make fun of me and my menial tasks. He can just look out when I get MY vacation. Mr. and Mrs. Boss and Carolyn aren't much help either. In addition to having to keep the office clean, I've also had to write the news, set type, make up ads and run the press. (Editor's Note: The above cut shows the thin ice the Office Cat is skating on when he tells whoppers like that.)

I almost had cat-nipitons at the basketball game with Sneads Saturday night. Close contests are exciting, of course, but the Sneads game overdid it a little. As a sportswriter, which naturally is included among my talents, I predict a thriller this Saturday night when the Bears meet the Leon Lions in Tallahassee.

The volunteer firemen turned out en masse the other night for a practice drill and after scaring me nearly to death blowing the siren on the firetruck, they came very near running over me on the corner of Seventh and Main. I heard rumors that they also burst a fire plug in their enthusiasm. No doubt you're planning to attend the Firemen's Benefit Ball next Thursday night. I'll be there provided I can located my red suspenders.

Folks are really responding nobly to the gentle reminders I mailed out last week concerning expiring subscriptions. The boss said that if I'd get 100 per cent renewals from subscribers, I would receive a valuable award for my success, a fur lined bath tub. Since, if there's anything I really need, it's a fur lined bath tub, please help me win it by sending in your renewals promptly. Incidentally, it would be to your advantage to mail me $2 or $2.50 quietly, before I have to get rough. The last time I got rough, many people were hurt in a panic because they thought it was an invasion from Mars. Orson Welles has nothing on THE OFFICE CAT.

Tuesday night the Greensboro Bulldogs played host to the Havana High school Bear's in Hosford only to be defeated by the Havana quintet by a score of 43-25, although the Baby Bulldog thumped the Cubs 35-5.

Both teams started off rather slow in the first quarter with the Bears hitting only one field goal and the Bulldogs coming up with one field goal and three charity tosses. Havana's Hunter McCullough started the game for Havana by hitting from the field while Greensboro's Crosby started the ball rolling for them.

In the second quarter, the Bears seemed to suddenly come to life, hitting seven field goals for 14 markers and holding Greensboro to one lone field goal. The fast break seemed to click with an unusual amount of accuracy and at the half time it gave the Bears a score of 16-7 for a nine point margin.

Going into the second half, both teams picked up considerably with a rally of bad passes hindering scoring possiblities for both teams. Throughout the whole second half, the Bears out rebounded, outfought and out shot the Greensboro quintet, hitting 27 of their points while holding their opponents to 18.

With the HHS boys using the fast break in the last frame, they had very little trouble taking the Bulldogs on the defense and the offense. As a whole, the game appeared to be quite a pickup in talent from what the Bears displayed against Sneads Saturday night.

For Havana, Dan Miller took scoring honors with 20 points, while Howard Gray and David Burns followed him with 14 and 7, respectively. Dick Fischer, Hunter McCullough and Dick Williams kept the Bulldogs busy on the defense, controlling the rebounds almost a hundred per cent.

Saturday night, the Havana High School Bears met the Sneads Pirates in the Attapulgus gym. As all the fans who went know (and most of the Bears' fans did go), the game wound up 48-47 with the Bears on top, barely hanging by their teeth, as the score indicates.

The game was late starting as the result of trouble with the Sneads transportation system. The coaches agreed to cancel the B team game that was orginally scheduled. The Bears started a little faster than the Jackson county boys but their attack began to bog down as the game progressed. On several occasions the Havana quintet missed easy layups and a large number of 12 foot crip shots.

Going into the second half, Sneads began to pick up and steadily gained on the Bears until at the end of the third quarter the score was even. In the final frame, the action really started with the teams playing on even terms for the first half of it. With about three minutes to go, the Pirates pulled five points ahead. Dick Fischer, who had turned in a fine game all night, rebounded a Sneads attempt and threw it all the way down the court for an easy layup; this brought the Bears within three points of the Pirates. After a few seconds, David Burns was fouled, he sank a fine shot and missed the other, but Dan Miller tipped the ball in to even the count at 45 all. After Sneads had missed another attempt at the basket, Howard Gray hit from the field and put Havana out in front again. After this the Bears went into a freeze and one of Sneads' boys foulded Gray. Gray made the shot with just 50 seconds to go, but the Jackson boys were not yet through. They went down the court and sank another field goal. After another second's play the game was over.

Dick Fischer, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. G. (John and Grace) Fischer, was recently named first alternate appointee to the Military Academy at West Point, according to an announcement by Rep. Bob Sikes of the third congressional district of Florida.

The annual meeting of Farm Ownership Borrowers of the Farmers Home Administration was held February 15, at the home of George Vickers, in Hinson community.

The meeting convened at 10 a. m. with an invocation given by A. G. Driggers, county agent. A talk on "Increasing Yields of Corn" was made by John G. Fischer, county supervisor of the administration. Mrs. Camilla R. Radney, Liberty county home demonstration agent, spoke to the group on "Increasing Net Income by Home Conservation Practices," and W. D. Griffin, of Gadsden county soil conservation service, led a discussion, "The Need of Permanent Pastures." Other talks on the program included "Improving Present Method of Raising Hogs," by Mr. Driggers, and a discussion on "Record Bookkeeping" by Mr. Fischer.

Others present included Donald H. Yawn, state field representative of the Farmers Home Administration, Gainesville; Curtis McFarland, editor of the Gadsden County Times; and Mrs. Frank DeBord, soil conservation service, Gadsden county.

A delicious luncheon was served to the group at noon by Mrs. J. Clyde Bentley, Mrs. Sarge Bentley, Mrs. Orbie B. Jones, Mrs. Robert L. Moore and Mrs. George Vickers.

Mayor E. H. Slappey stated today that a representative of the engineering department of the Southeastern Underwriters association has just completed a reassessment of the town's new and existing fire facilities.

This action was requested by the town council some little time ago with the object of reclassifying and reducing the town's fire insurance rate.

Mr. Wooterly, who represented the underwriters, was extremely pleased with the adequacy of the town's equipment and considered everything to be in top shape, Slappey said. He pointed out, however, that there will be considerable time in the processing of this report before the actual changes will revert to the town.

The representative's recommendations will move the classification of mercantile establishments from ninth to eighth and in effect remove the 10 per cent penalty now in effect on commercial buildings.

On dwellings over 500 feet from a fire hydrant, now, due to the 400 gallon tank on the new fire truck, the classification will be reduced from fourth to third, or namely the classification will be the same throughout the city limits regardless of the distance from a hydrant.

Mr. Wooterly praised the town officicals on their foresightedness in acquiring the 400 gallon tank on the truck as many towns have onlay a 150 gallon capacity and they find that it is not sufficient for their needs.

Editoral

Early this school year, the Senior class suggested that every student in school feel as if the school paper were his own responsibility. This attitude gives everyone an opportunity to help improve the paper. Though the Seniors are in charge of the paper, the whole student body is encouraged to submit articles and suggestions to help improve its caliber.

Immediately following this invitation to contribute to the paper, several articles were submitted and published. Now, though, in the middle of the year, there is a slump in this participation.

Maybe some students feel that they are doing the Seniors' work for them, but this is far from the actual circumstances. The paper is everyone's concern and it takes everyone's help to make it go over. Besides helping in this way, the work will be benifical to the student in the future. Some day the paper will be in other hands and the little experience a person gains now will help him later. Too, there is a certain thrill for anyone seeing in print something he has written. This may seem odd but those who have experienced it can fully realize the truth of this statement. However, don't take anyone's word for it. The best way for a person to find out is to touch his pen to the paper and express himself on whatever subject he can.

Just remember 113 (the enrollment of the upper four classes) are better than 17 (senior enrollment) in making a good paper!

Couples Around The Campus

We are quite positive you'll recognize this couple. They are both popular members of the Junior Class. The boy is on the basketball team and the girl has an interest concerning the team. The girl has blonde hair, blue eyes, and a very nice smile. The boy can readily be distinguished by his red hair and blue eyes. Their nicknames are "Ace" and "Spec", now do you know? If not you'll have to catch up on what's doing around this town.

Around The Town
By Miss Teen

There's not much gossip in Havana for the past week but maybe by starting with last Thursday night we can scrape up enough to fill this column. Thursday night the Havana Bears ventured to Cottondale for a basketball game. Due to the distance, there wasn't many fans there. However, Miss Moore was there with bells on. Also she brought a car load of kids down with her. They noticed, Miss Moore, that you only got a cup of coffee for supper. Weren't you hungry or............

Bobby Harrell counted six orange trucks on "Babs" (Barbara Powell) that night. It was overheard that had he been graded, he would have gotten A for effort but F in success. Could it be possible that "Babs" is being true to one now?

What is Billy Edmunds griping about? Could it be because Gene Belser fared better than he?

Friday night was a pretty dull night. However, a lot of the kids livened it up pretty well. Annette (Darsey) and Ray (McLellan) are getting along smoothly now. Bet this didn't hold true Friday night when they went to the skating rink.

"Tootsie" (Margaret Miller) and Don went to see a basketball game at FSU. We are sure "Tootsie" enjoyed this.

Julia (Tullos), Babs (Barbara Powell), and Faye (Allen) spent the night in Tally Friday night. They weren't lonesome though as Howard (Gray), Jimmie (Boynton) and Dick (Fischer) came over to keep them company.

Friday morning, students left Havana to go to the State Fair. Among those were Pat Gray, Yvonne Carter, Joe Cantey, Billy Edmunds, Charles Lester, Billy Cowart and others. Maybe this was the reason Havana was do dull, especially with Joe gone.

Saturday night the Juniors gave a pileau supper. They really believe in working for the Senior entertainment.

Another interest Saturday night was the midnight show "Dracula". It was really scary, especially when Don Butler blew up a bag and popped it during the quietest scene. If you notice Barbara sitting up in class making faces, you will know she is mocking the madman in that show.

Sunday the devil was really beating his wife. She will probably be sore for a week. By this, we mean all the rain. This doesn't keep the movie goers home, though, for the same old crowd was there Sunday afternoon.

Monday night there was band practice. Tuesday night the boys traveled to Greenwood to play ball. Dan, now can you understand why Mr. Strange beat you back?

Wednesday night the girls had an FHA meeting while the boys attended an FFA meeting.

We bet Mary Zell (Haskins) had a good time Thursday night. Nettie Virginia met her in Columbus where she spent the night before continuing on to LaGarange.

Now for some hit and miss gossip: The other night Joan Lascola and the crowd she was with had a little accident in Tally. When questioned as to how it happened, Joan is quoted as saying "Oh, some stupid cab driver stopped for a red light but we didn't". Now a certain Junior girl's car has a bent-in front.

Gene Belser isn't nearly as shy as he was when he first came. Maybe this is because he has gotten to know everyone. It is gossiped that he still hasn't decided as to who he wishes to go with, so girls, don't give up yet.

We're signing off now but look for us next week as we'll still be in here pitching.

School Beautification

The FFA boys have been working an active part in the school beautification. The ground has been plowed and the roots dug up. The FFA boys cleaned up the roots and limbs and then burned them.

They have also planted shrubbery around the agriculture building and canning plant.

The Key Club, in cooperation with Mr. Yearty, will broadcast grass seed over the entire lower campus.

These are a few of the plans for beautifying the school grounds.
