U • tt citizens, j. g. junior rotarions and honorary . . . members of the belmont woman ' s club HE B elmont Woman’s Club and the Rotary Club, eager to promote t interest in community affairs on the part of future citizens, have y made an annual tradition of honoring a group of B.H.S. students with special membership. The Honorary Members of the Woman’s Club were hospitably received at several functions during the year. The Junior Rotarians attended weekly meetings of this highly respected inter- national organization, learning its ideals and getting acquainted with its members. Thus, two of Belmont’s civic-minded organizations have provided a useful glimpse of their active contribution to town life. 19

HIS year’s National Honor Society members, having carefully stored their little gold pins at home, carried on the N.H.S. code of Char- y acter - Scholarship - and Service. Bob Clayton appeared on the scene in November for the N.H.S. dance, a record success in the annals of the organization. In March, seven members, chosen out of a hat because of the goodly supply of willing talent, took the National Honor So- ciety Scholarship Examination. The only problem of the N.H.S. was that all its members were so busy with other activities that they barely had time to say hail and farwell to Mr. Meyers. 18

' HE hustle and bustle of a newspaper office was much in evidence around i room 213 as Editor-in-chief, Ronald Clark and his staff struggled to get all y the last minute news into the “Star”. The contents of the paper, partic- ularly of the “Jinx Wonders” column, came in for much healthy discus- sion and criticism this year, but no final solution has been found. Issues of the “Star” were enlivened by teacher and student “Profiles”, special features on Europe written by a well-traveled senior, and controversy in the editorial column, plus the usual sports, club, and music write-ups. Some of our editors were guests at the parties sponsored by the Boston Globe at the Sheraton Plaza. They heard some of the inside workings of a big newspaper and traded ideas with other editors of school publications. Miss Magee and Mr. Shipp are to be congratulated for their guidance, carried out with a maximum of effiency and a minimum of control. 20
