At chapel period Tuesday, March 29, at a meeting of the Junior class, Betty Brown was elected editor-in-chief of High Life for the year 1926-27. The requirements of the completion of one semester of Journalism eliminated any one from semester VII. The present High Life staff nominated three of the seven possible candidates, who were voted upon by the rising senior class.

Prior to the election, Miss Coleman emphasized the importance and responsibility of the position. She also stated that Greensboro was the only school represented at the C.I.P.A. convention, which left the election of editor-in-chief to the students, thus proving the great confidence placed in G.H.S. students by the faculty.
