The five-acre plot of land surrounding the gymnasium at Bryan County High School in Pembroke
is currently undergoing large scale improvements including digging of drainage ditches and level
ing of land. Future plans call for erecting a high school annex building on the west side of the
gymnasium. It will include a lunchroom, science department laboratories and high school class
rooms. The main building of the high school is located across the street from the gymnasium grounds.
Tennis courts and other recreational facilities were recently constructed on the grounds surrounding
the gym. An architect is now working on plans for the new annex building.

Maybe R. H. and R. O. can tell

the service boys these days. It
seems very strange for M. L. and
B. S. to be so interested in Sa
vannah.
What ball player is ■ j interest

ball, it seems that N. P. and E. P.
are really on the ball. How did
C. (1. and K. B. get to Blitchton
Tuesday night?
Why did H. H. write G. B. a
long letter the other day? Have
D. S. and W. D. changed their
plans lately? Who is Everett
