students to run for offices.Lawrence Davis and WillieMebane were candidates forpresident. Virginia Hill was a

candidate for secretary andDenise Weaver ran for treasurer.

On campaign day each can-didate made their speech. Thetwo black candidates stressedthe division in the schoolamong students and betweenadministration and students.Each said if they wore ejectedpresident they would bringmore togetherness in DHS.They talked of more equalrepraaentation on the StudentCouncil.

Many of the students com-plain about the student Coun-cil officers being elected accord-ing to popularity. Many saythis eliminates the black can-didates who are in theminori-ty. Archie Johnson won theelection and wiH be pnaident.

ByDARLENE KNIGHT

HILLSIDE BACK TO NORMAL

After two weeks of out-of-

school activities, the Hornetfamily rejoined on Monday forthe home stretch of the rest ofschool for the 1968-69 schoolyear, ?

The band, returning homeon Sunday night from the an-nual Cherry Blossom Festivalin Washington, brought home

tales of good times and experi-

ences. The only gripe they had

was the short time they wereallowed to stay there April10-13. And, as usual, Hillside's

musical representation was ex-cellent under the leadership ofC. A. Edgerton.

The last Parent Teachers As-sociation meeting was held onMonday, April 14, with a spe-

cial discussion among the ex-change students who visited

Durham High School on March25-27. The reactions of theeight were varied and interest-ing. The friendly air displayedby some of the students, thelearning experiences of theschool, and the desire to goagain were some of the obser-vations made. This program, it

is hoped, will pave the way for

fvfuture programs that win bet-ter the relationship between

the white man and his blackbrother.

Class rings were on sale thefourth and fifth periods ofMonday and Wednesday aftera long awaited arrival by thestudents. The second order ofrings will be sold about thethird week of May.

The Debating Society partici-pated on Thursday in a seriesof debates at Shaw University
