Alumni News
By Sharon Horner
   Most of the alumni of Winter Park will be coming home for Thanksgiving, so that means news. Those coming home just to name a few are John Jane, Beaner Howden, Ann Taylor, Phil Hoffman, Bob Wiser, Bob Crane, Tommy Cushing, and all the "Old Gang."
   Tommy Cushing and Jimmy Pascoe were seen wandering around the halls last Friday. They must miss the old place. I think Tommy just wanted us to see his new car. Pretty sharp!
   I was talking to Bob Clark not too long ago and he said that Terry Egan won't be playing football at Idaho any longer. He injured his shoulder. That's a shame as Terry won the scholarship for football.
   Rollins College, which Ann Taylor and Jo Ann Richards attend, informs us that it now has an enrollment of 228 freshmen, making a total of 678 students.
   Carrington Sharp, a '59 alumni is planning on getting married this Christmas. Our congratulations to you, Carrington!
   The Wi-Pa-Hi-Sc staff extends its sympathy to Lynda Bussells our 59-60 editor of the paper, on the loss of her father.
QUESTIONNAIRE

   What would you do or say if someone called you a Xanthippe????
   MARTHA BAKER: "Slap 'em then turn around and run!"
   GLORIA BEASLEY: "Same to you!"
   SHERRY VINES: "I'll play along with the game--What is it?"
   JACKIE COTTRELL: "I'd smash them!!!!"
   PAM KELLY: I wouldn't believe them."
   SANDY BOWMAN: "Why, thank you!"
   KIM HADLEY: "Takes one to call one!!!"
   For all of you who are interested, Xanthippe was Socrate's wife whose peevish scolding and temper have become proverbial. (She was a "shrew".

 

S. C. News
   The main discussion in the Student Council meeting last Wednesday concerned the unpaid auction debts. These debts were several weeks overdue and it was the general opinion of the Council that this debt should be doubled if not turned in by the Thanksgiving holidays. After much discussion on the subject of doubling these I. O. U's, Mrs. Ramsdell informed the Council that this action could not be taken. If anyone reading this article is one of the many "debt dodgers" it would be greatly appreciated if you would turn in your money immediately.
   Many of the homerooms are not being represented at the Student Council meeting. Although Council has been very lenient so far, it has been it's custom in the past, to ask the homerooms to replace representatives who have been absent twice during the year. There is no excuse for representatives missing the meetings. For if the representatives can't attend the alternate or another member of the class should come. Meetings are every other Wednesday and Student Council expects to have 100% representation from now on!
J. V. In Black
   The Winter Park Junior Varsity team won four of their sic games to give them a 55 and two - thirds percent average of all their games. High point man was Randy Hall with 25 points, while Jeff Arnold was the team's leading ground gainer. Other statististics are: The longest pass was from Caldwell to Hall for 45-yds., and the longest run was by Pollard for a gain of 55-yds. Handling the punting was Hall and Pollard, and when the team needed the extra point, they called on Reynolds to make it. The leading pass receiver was once again Hall. Congratulations to our winning team!!
Basketball Intramurals
   Due to the fact that the WPHS basketball team must begin practice, the girls' intramural's have been changed from badminton to basketball. In this way, the badminton nets will already be down before the WPHS team comes in for practice.
   Other changes made were the dates and time. Instead of Mondays and Thursdays intramural's will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Also intramural's will begin promptly at 3:20 and end at 4:00.
   We hope to see a lot of girls there. Don't forget the new date and new time!
Teacher of Week

   Born in Albany, Georgia, Mrs. Jean Rosenberg, head of the Language Department here at Winter Park High School, is looking forward to the new "Language Laboratory" equipment that is arriving soon. This is the latest technique in the teaching of foreign languages, using tape recordings of the voices of mature instructors. The foreign language student also can record his own voice and be able to listen to himself. The instructor will have an instrument which will enable her to hear the recordings. Although 30 booths are needed, the Spanish department thus far has been allotted only eight.
   Receiving her Master's Degree in Inter-American Affairs from the University of New Mexico, Mrs. Rosenberg worked for the government as a translator during World War II.
   Having taught both at college and high school levels, Mrs. Rosenberg enjoys high school better because quoting this teacher, "It's such a frantic, mixed-up age, but such an interesting one!"
   The Wi-Pa-Hi-Sc this week salutes you, Mrs. Jean Rosenberg!
