SE IIJHS WITH DISTI IITIU The purpose of this award wasto find the four most outstanding sutdents in the class of T948. they were not chosen for scholastic ability alone, but the emphasis for consideration of these students was placed on their influence at home, in school and in the community.

These characteristics were each scored so as to give a balanced and proportionate estimate. The per- fect score was 170 points. The process of elimination for this award was beg un by the La Entrada staff presenting the faculty with a list of names of all the seniors. Each member of the faculty, with the above particular qualities of per- sonality growth in mind, submitted the names of five seniors who approached these characteristics. The senior advisors ther .Tallied these suggestions and with their own selections presented a list of names of eleven high rating students to a board of control. This board was composed of two student representa- tives and one faculty sponsor from each class except the senior. These nine committeemen shared their knowledge and experience on these students by evaluating each personal attribute according to the given score. After the nine scores were totalled, the four names with the highest scores were considered the most outstanding students in the class of l948. The eleven seniors who were first recognized as qualifying for this particular honor were: Evelyn Alves, Leah Buffington, Winnifred Boyer Day, Jimmy Foster, Delivan Gordon, Barbara Hansen, Phyllis McClaran, Ruth Myer, Harold Rogers, Melba Tharp, and Eddie Thiel. The four who held the highest scores from among these were: Harold Rogers, Melba Tharp, Jimmy Foster, and Phyllis McClaran. The careful consideration, thoughtfulness, objective thinking, impartiality, shared experiences of the fac- ulty and members of the board of control are held in high regard by the La Entrada staff. This keen award is not only a high honor to the recipients, but also sheds highlights on the members of the school com- munity who have a sensitive appreciation of the fine qualities upheld for this award.
