   Once again 'tis time to "cast off" ... The beaches have surely been lively lately — Just a few weeks ago saw Tommy Masseabeau with Pat George, Jolene Suslar, Susan Harris, Suzie Miller, Sandy Cash and Bill Lane, Julie and Dewey, Jeannie Jones, Judy Reding, Sigrid and Richard, Jeff Arnold, Sharon White, Judy Hayes, and many more Parkers at New Smyrna.
   Freddy and Charlyne are the cutest little couple at school ... George Broyles had a party on Feb. 25 — Among the guests were Peggy Frome, Mike Born, Chip Furr, Joyce Jones, Roy Davis, Ned Whitner, Pat Brown, Dick Wannal, Nina Andrews, and Kent Harmeling ... Hope it continues to be sunny — the tanned faces brighten up the halls ... Up periscope — Who's Bill Collier dating now?
   And it seems as if Jim Henry and Linda Tindall are going strong — again! ... Congratulations New Varsity cheerleaders! ... Won't be long before we get to hear Jeanne Britt sing "I Can't Say No" in "Oklahoma" ... Like Pat Stephen's dark beige skirt and blouse outfit ... Hope that Buster Judy is now sufficiently recovered from his swollen brain and cracked vertebrae ... Girls, do you realize how close the prom is? — And boys, don't wait 'til the last minute to get your date ... Maryanne Watkins surely is full of good humor.
   Pat Warr has the liveliest blonde hair ... Who's the new love Bino? ... Have you noticed Barbara Nash's eyes? ... Wanna try something fun? — Ride the Go-Karts — They're great for dates ... Jackie Cottrell has a new little brother ... "Let's have a party" ... Jimmy Fleming is tall, blonde, and cute ... Isn't Heather's hair "smashing"?
   Quite a few Winter Park girls have developed a keen interest in Winter Garden boys ... Diane Beiger and Bobby Cross were asked to dance at the J.C. luncheon in Orlando ... Heard that BH gave a very private party for him and PE — George told me! ... Did you see the parade of SENIOR girls marching into our hallowed halls a few weeks back — Keep up the good work GIRLS ... Sign out ... Susi.

NEED A JOB???
By Donna Mueller
   Hi students! I'm beginning to hear those familiar somments around school again this year concerning the fact that summer jobs are going to be in great demand.
   For many, the summer job outlook is often discouraging, but it need not be. No, if you have imagination, initiative or ingenuity, you can have a summer job before tomorrow morning. Why not make one of your own??? Every year more and more fellows and girls do just this, and they find it to provide not only FUN, but FORTUNE!!!
   Quoting a New York vacation counselor, "Why not hit the bottle — the right way — this summer and actually make it pay off. One girl I heard about made attractive lamps out of old bottles. Her lamps made unique gifts and wonderful souveniors for those out-of-town visitors to take back to friends and relatives. Another girl, made her visits to the beach pay off by collecting pop bottles and turning them in for the refund. But, again, these just may not be the type of jobs you're looking for. All right, here's another suggestion. One boy in New York's Westchester County opened a "dog-sitting" business. The boy offered to take care of dogs, cats, parakeets, and goldfish for people on vacation. It turned out to be a booming business. The local newspaper editor was so intrigued by the idea that he gave the boy free publicity.
   One summer job open to all high school and college students is direct-to-consumer selling, also known as door-to-door canvassing. It's a business not hard to enter, and there is no special training or experience needed. You sell on a commission basis, and the more you sell, the more you earn. The advantage of this type of job is that you can put in as many hours as you wish, and you can continue selling throughout the school year if necessary. If none of these jobs apply to your needs, the old stand by of baby-sitting is always on demand. It seems the world never runs out of that "need."

   O.K. so now you've decided to teach a Polynesian cooking class or fabricate custom built bird houses. Your next question will probably be, "How do I get customers?" There are several different ways. Have business cards or circulars printed, and hand them out to neighbors and friends. If your idea is original ask the editor of the local paper to give you a plug. Also, put an attractive sign on your front lawn or in the window. But the best way to drum up business it by way of the satisfied customer. Get a few people who are pleased with your work, and the word will spread — you'll be surprised how rapidly — Then, my friends, You're In Business!!!!
