It's certainly attractive, was the comment heard in the halls of C.V.H.S. one morning in May. We'll tell you. The gold pin is the Honor Society em- blem, and only students who are members may wear it. How can I be a member? If you really want to be a member and wear the pin, you must first of all be a good student: in fact, the best possible one, be- cause you must rank in the upper third of your class in scholarship. Oh, well I do, why am I not a member? There are other things to be considered, too. Only five per cent of the juniors and Hfteen per cent of the seniors may belong. So if you're a sophomore, you'll have to wait. How many are members now? l Six. There are four seniors and two juniors, for the Hrst time since the society was organized in 1932, all members are girls. The members who were elected first se- mester were: Freda Theis, Irene Henson. and Dorothy Wear, seniors: and Betty Bar- ney, the lone junior. Two members were added the second semester: Sethyne Brant, senior, and Elma Reichenberg, junior, When was the College View Chapter organized? Our chapter was organized in May, 1932, and consisted of five senior members. Who elects the members? The members of this organization are selected by the vote of the faculty, as a committee, with Mr. johnson, principal, pre- siding as chairman, What is the purpose of the Honor So- ciety? It is to bestow honor upon students who rank superior in scholarship, render service, and who are worthy leaders. Nineteen
