Herring, Linda Cheuvront, and
Faye Ray spent about four af
ternoons painting the walls a
beautiful mint green. Faye Mar
tin and Kathy Bridges worked di
ligently to construct curtains for
the clinic and adjoining bathroom.
The curtains in the clinic are
beige and feature many typical
school scenes. Among these sc-

enes are football games, cheer
leading, boy talks to girlfriend,
etc. The bright orange and olive
green in the curtains add a perky
touch to the room. A tangerine
corduroy bedspread is the eye
catching item in the room. This
was made by Claudia Wells, Mar
sha Penn, and Darlene Yates. The
curtains in the bathroom were
made of this same tangerine cor
duroy. Several other girls spent
hours scrubbing sinks, floors,
washing windows, mirrors, etc.
New letters were put on the
door to Identify the bright new
room. The girls spent approxi
mately twenty-five dollars and
many hours of work. We hope
our student body will be proud
of this improvement. We appre
ciate the pictures to hang on the
walls given by the Allied Medical
Club. We also appreciate the
flower arrangement donated by
Mrs. Dan Moore.
Another special project of the
Newton FHA was to make covers
for tie tubas used by the Blue
Rambler Band. These covers
were made by Faye Martin and
Jean Stapp. They feature white
felt letters on a royal blue knit
background. These covers were
first used when the Blue Rambler
Band played at the Atlanta Sta
dium during half-time show at
the Falcon-Stealer game in De
cember.
On January 19th four Fresh
men girls were responsible for
the dinner meal served to the
judges of the one-act play con
test. These girls were Pam
Bohannon, Genia Harwell, Mar
sha Dillingham, and Wanda Sha
dix.
On January 23, 1967 the of

respect in the voices of those
who are commenting about some
unsportsman-llke act they have
witnessed.
Sportsmanship is defined as
“conduct becoming to a sports
man, and involving fair, honest
rivalry, courteous relations, and
graceful acceptance of results.”
Almost everyone gives lip-ser
vice to the ideals of good sports
manship; but some people do not
put their words Into practice.
We have often heard it said
that “All the world loves a win
ner!” This is only partly true.
The world loves a winner who
is genuinely humble In spite of
his success, but the world has
little respect for the braggart
even though he may be a cham
pion.
As is true of so many of the
qualities which we admire, the
real test of sportsmanship comes
when the going gets tough. It
is comparatively simple to be a
good sport when you’re winning
or are the champion. True
sportsmanship Is more apt to
reveal Itself when the pressure
is on and the result in doubt.
What you do when you could get
an unfair advantage by breaking
a rule and you are sure you
would not be seen, determines
“Love Thy Brother’’” Was
Theme Os Tri-Hi-Y Program
The auditorium of Newton
County High School filled quickly
on January 27. Elaine Wood, vice
president of the Gamma Tri-
Hl-Y, stood before the student
body to offer an awakening de
votional, “Love Thy Brother”.
Mary Lewis, president of the
Gammas, then presented an in
troduction to the Gamma Chapel
program. She contributed a brief
biographical sketch of the guest
speaker, Dr. John B. Tate, pastor
of Allen Memorial Church of Ox
ford. A hushed expectancy spread
as a very dignified yet friendly
gentleman rose to begin an en
lightening interpretation of ecu
menicity. What is ecumenicity
anyway? Dr. Tate explained
the meaning of this term in our
world today and the relation to
the Christian church throughout
the world.
Young people of the world are
full of hope, life, energy. Dr.
Tate discussed the differences
and likenesses among a univer
sal group of young people. There
are natural, cultural, economic
as well as religious barriers.
His program covered world
ecumenical conferences toward
world peace. Here, he presented
the materials that must be dealt
with if ecumenicity is to become
a reality. In concluding, he stat
ed that ecumenicity is the window
your true sportsmanship.
Cowards can fight
When they’re out ahead;
The uphill grind
Shows a thoroughbred!

How do you act

Quill And Scroll
Has Meeting
High school journalists wel
come the idea of a club in which
they can express journalistic opi
nions and receive recognition.
The Quill and Scroll Society of
N.C.H.S. offers opportunity to
this interested group of students.
On January 25, the club mem
bers met to review their pro
gress and to discuss the further
development of their recently
reorganized club. As Vance
Morris completed an appropriate
devotional, Bonnie Knight, pre
sident, began an informal dis
cussion on club projects. App
reciation was given to those
members who freely offered their
time and efforts to participate
at the Quill and Scroll Conces
sion Stand at a recent bailgame.
The Quill and Scroll Society
supplies the material for an in
formative yet entertaining page
in “The Ram Speaks,” the
N.C.H.S. school newspaper. Bon
nie and club advisor, Mrs. Meyer,
encouraged a greater participat
ion in this project and urged
members to meet a deadline
with original material.
Through diligent work on
worthwhile projects, the Quill
and Scroll plans to become a club
that will be a credit and source
of opportunity to the student body
of Newton County High School.
