Through fidelity to membership require- ments, tutoring and the bestowal of letters for academic achievement, they kept their pledge to uphold the high purpose of this society . . . striving in every way by word and deed to make its ideals, the ideals of my school and my life. During the National Education Week the society sponsored an assembly to encourage scholarship. Superintendent of Schools, Rev. Fleming McManus, spoke on the opportunities offered by the Church for Catholic Education in South Carolina. A clever presentation of the problems resulting from wasting one's time in high school was enacted by Regina Qualey. During an original playet on March 17, the Junior Honor Society admitted inductees. Crier Patricia Onufer, Clerk Margaret Ehrhardt and Tribune Patrick Sheecly assisted Judge Larry Miller with the trial of Character, Leadership, Service, Citizenship and Scholarship. Members also gave service by working in the Catholic Library on Sundays and Fridays. Other proiects included the sale of potato chips and fruit cakes.

Founded in 1951 by Father Croghan and Sister Mary Alice, the Student Council continued to operate as an organization which trains students to accept responsibility in preparation for roles as future citi- zens. Among the civic works of the councilors were the Poppy Day sale, entering a float presenting the real meaning of Christmas in the yuletide parade, and the campaign for the March of Dimes. Funds for this latter cause were raised through car washes and selling balloons at games. ln ad- dition to raising funds, the councillors were also active in advertising the March of Dimes, especially over television. Maintaining order in the halls and during as- semblies continued to be a function of the' Council in the school. The councillors also conducted as- semblies of an educational nature. In addition to these more noteworthy activities the Student Council maintained a school scrapbook, a bulletin board dis- playing newspaper clippings of the school and BEHS alumni, and a lost and found department. The BEHS Student Council is a member of the National Association of Student Councils and the Charleston County Association. Its approximately 65 members have been elected by majority vote of their fellow students. Tommy Hartnett and Andrea Ritter served as co-presidents, Carol Hartnett, secre- tary and Joe Weinrich, treasurer. ln addition to being co-president of the BEHS Student Council Tommy Hartnett was also president of the district Student Council.
