Not
too many of us know or have any idea as to what life
is like behind the iron curtain, but the history students
at H.B. Plant High School, Tampa, got the story straight
from the "horse's mouth" on the 12 of January.
The "horse" was Princess Caradja of Rumania,
who escaped from her country in 1951.
Also
Corry Megla, a 17 year old student at Boone, could tell
you a great deal about life under Communists' rule.
It was only a year and a half ago that Corry and her
parents escaped from East Germany. Both these girls
are happy to be in the United States where they are
able to enjoy the freedom, which we, as Americans, take
so much for granted.
Forrest
Sherman High School in Naples, Italy, may have a representative
in the 1964 Olympics. He is a junior at the present
time and hopes to run the 200 meter dash. His name is
Preston Parker and he set two track records last year
at the meet in Vicenza.
Dearborn
High School, Dearborn, Michigan, had a graduation class
in January. Count it be that they have a 12-month school
year???
From
Coral Gables High School comes the astounding fact that
the fellows are no longer wearing their pants so painfully
tight. This could give them a better chance with the
opposite sex because it enables these would-be-Romeos
to bend and pick up the fallen handkerchief.
Other
fashion notes from Coral Gables are the wearing of ponchos
with short skirts (the girls of course), and the fact
that shoes are becoming more and more pointed. With
this in mind, how could you like to have a kick in the
seat?? (the boys of course). |

CATS
BREAK SLUMP |

Fouls,
fouls, and more fouls!! Well fans, Winter Park is beginning
to develop a lost cause towards fouls as they can't seem to
keep their paws off the opposing player with the ball. Anyway,
this reporter has seen poorer games officiated than the one
played last Friday night in Sanford against the Seminoles.
The Cats lost their ninth and tenth last week compared to
their seven wins thanks to the DeLand Bulldogs who visited
us last Friday night, the score of that game was 81-45
The
other scores were 48-43, and Sanford 54-48. Alone
in the fourth quarter of the Lakeview game the Cats were called
on 10 fouls and all the foul shots were good for Winter Garden.
A freeze developed in the last two minutes of the game against
Winter Park which ended any worth while press.
Winter
Park was defeated in the new Sanford gym due mostly to a little
guy named Perides who just has what it takes to sink those
long ones from the outside. Putting a fine performance against
Sanford was Jackie Billingham who hit or 14 pts. and Rusty
Doolittle who was on his toes with 10 pts.
Poor
DeLand never had a chance against Winter Park's Ramsby, Burris
and Collier who all hit for 14 points. The
only thing that kept the Bulldogs alive were foul shots. The
score was 81-46. Lance Howden had his first big night, hitting
for 3 pts. |

Hollywood
Here |
There
seems to be great and original talent at our school.
We may have promising dancers and actors right here
at Winter Park, who knows?
Do
you remember hearing over the intercom last week for
the boys in "Dying Petunia Ballet" to report
for a meeting after school? Well, they did and they
really didn't know exactly know what they were getting
themselves into.
Now,
through their gracefulness and showmanship, these
boys were on television in the Cerebral Palsy Telethon,
February 4, between 11:00 and 12:00, channel 6.
They
were very excited about the whole thing and I'm sure
that you would have been just as proud watching them
audition as I was.
Good
luck boys and Thanks!!!
