Page 4 November, 1964 Here andThere Tuesday, Oct. 27, was the night of the first Home and School meeting. Margaret Fitz- gerald and Peter Obligato took part in a discussion of “The students reaction to religion in school and home life.” Both parents and teach- ers agreed that they profited from the talks. Have you noticed the en- thusiastic spirit hanging on the halls of BCHS? The Pep club members have earned recognition for their posters urging attendance at the foot- ball games. They have really helped to increase school spirit for the majority of the students. ♦ All studonts interested in any field of medicine are invited to attend the Future Nurses club. The name of the club need not mislead you. Once a month, a guest speaker talks to the members on such aspects of medicine as phar macy, technology, physical therapy, radiology, social work, and laboratory research. A potluck dinner for club members is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 19, at 6:30 in the cafeteria. The purpose of this gather- ing is to welcome new members of the Future Nurses club. As their main project this year the Sodality has intro- duced the Perpetual Rosary into BCHS. This is how it works: All students interested in participating in this devotion have an opportunity to sign up for the day and the time that fits in with their schedule. All those who participate help in promoting the recitation of the rosary by one or two students at a time during the entire school day from 8:20 until 3:00. ♦ Secretaries Sponsor Graveyard Hop Prixe winners at the “Graveyard Hop” were Chuck Molay, most original; Le Roy Stoltz, winner of the door prize; Nsmcy Buchko, funniest costume; Joe Bergeson, ugliest; and Judy Good, most elaborate.

Two main exams, the American College Testing (ACT) Program and the Col- lege Entrance Examination Board (CEEB) test, are offered to the students. A student entering college must find out which test his college requires for admission. The ACT consists of four smaller timed tests in English, mathematics, social studies, and the natural studies. The ACT is a four hour test. It can be taken at Beloit College or. November 7, 1964 and April 24. 1965. The CEEB is a combination of three tests, the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), the Achievement tests, and the Writing sample. Most col- leges require only SAT which is a three hour test including verbal and mathematical sections. Some colleges also require the Achievement test, a one- hour test given in the afternoon of the test day, and the Writing Sample, a one hour essay on an assigned topic. The CEEB can be taken at Beloit College on December 5, 1964 or May 1, 196$. Joe Cousin Students are asked to save Betty Crocker coupons for the Senior class.
