rol Etheridge. The new major

jroom. The seniors elected officers

Panthers Downed
The Perry High Panthers lost a
heartbreaker Friday night to the
Treutlen High Panthers of Soper- 1
ton.
The Soperton Panthers controll
ed the ball almost the entire first
half. Their first score came late j
in the first quarter. The extra j
point attempt was successful, and'
I Treutlen led 7-0. I
The only other score of the
game came right before the end of j
the half. Ronnie Davis intercep-
I ted a touchdown pass but was
j felled in the end zone,
j The second half was all Perry.
! The Panthers had several sustain
ed drives, but a penalty and inter
cepted pass proved too much for
the Perry team to overcome. They
were unable to score, and the
game ended 9-0.
The Panther defense was again
i outstanding since the Soperton
I crew was able to move the ball
' very little during the second half.
This week the Panthers go to
Hawkinsville to play the high-rid
ing Red Devils.

The final tryout for the boys’
soloist was held last week with
Mike Jacobs being chosen to re
present the school. The alternate

j Mike sang tenor in FFA Quartet

Spaniards Taken In
El Pasetiempo, Perry Hi’s Span
ish club, initiated into its roll nine
: teen new Spanish enthusiasts last
I Wednesday night at the home of
Warren Williams.
11 President Kathy Borders, who
conducted the business session of
the meeting in Spanish, led the
’ | club in the allegiance to our flag
and in “My Country Tis of Thee.”
Social chairman Martha Lynn
Watson issued the initiation stunts
' to elegantly appalled ‘female” mu
chachos and girls dressed as the
serenading boys of Spain.
Compact Car-nival
Last Friday night the football
i fans enjoyed the band show based
on one of the recent developments
on the American scone, the COM
PACT CAR. Everyone went along
with the band to see how this
mighty midget—the compact car
—is really made.
The Perry High School band, af
ter marching onto the field to the
tune of “New Trails,” formed a
block of steel, pressed the block,
and made the frame of the car to
the beat of the “Anvil Chorus,”
which was used for all the transi
tions.
Next to the body, the engine
is the most important part of the
compact car. So the band then
changed its formation to that of
the four pistons.
The pistons moved slowly in low
gear as “Over the Waves” was
played. Then the gear was shifted
to second, and the pistons moved |
a bit faster to the tune of “Ta-ra- j
ra-Boom-de-ay”. For a real demon
; stration of blazing speed, they
went into high gear with the pis
tons moving very fast while the
band played “Billboard March.”
Os all the accessories on the
compact car, perhaps the most im
portant is the horn. Everyone was
delighted as this vital piece of
equipment was tested by the ac
companiment of a horn on a real
compact car (driven out on the
field) to the strains of the “Auto
Horn-pipe”.
At the conclusion of the Car
nival the Alma Mater was played
and the band retired from the
field to the tune of “New Trails”.

‘Crash! Bang!” ‘Watch Out!”
What are these noises that one
may hear every day during school.
Surely, it’s not the students push
ing and running in the halls.
Think again, and you’ll realize
that it is just that.

would be to keep a slow pace as
one goes from class to class in the
crowded halls! Since Perry High
School has become so crowded
with students, it is impossible not
to expect crowded halls. On the
other hand, however, it is possible
to be polite and to considerate of
others.
“Excuse me, please,” should be
the chatter one hears in the halls
of Perry High; and the time be
tween classes will be more plea-1
sant for everyone.
9th Grade Loses
The Perry High Ninth grade
football squad suffered a 34-7 loss
last week to Baldwin County.
Coach Hartman said that his boys
“weren’t ready” and that the
tackling, running and blocking
wasn’t up to par.
Joe Martin and Joe Norman
were injured early in the game, 1
which was a setback to the team.
Playing against a rugged team,
the young Panthers were able to
score only one touchdown which
was made by Isaac Davis.
The ninth graders take on Haw
kinsville this week in Hawkins
ville.
