Hawaiian Club performs through first year This was the first year at Damien for a performing Hawaiian Club. And if the first year can be any indication, there should be many more good ones ahead. Instructed by Mrs. Russell, a full-time teacher at Sacred Hearts Academy, the club performed for select groups such as the Mothers Club and for the varsity bowlers at their banquet. This year's Interschool Relations Com- mittee was the biggest ever, both in the number of members and in the number of schools involved in student exchanges. Fifty-five members strong, the committee visited or escorted visi- tors through Damien from twenty-five different Oahu schools. Set up as an exchange medium where schools and students can see and share ideas, the I.R.C. members found that even learning can be fun. 66

68 N.H.S. and Many regard the National Honor Society as merely a group of elite who tutor students with academic difficulties. The N.H.S. is all this and more, for they perform many other services for the school and community. Ushering plays at the U. H. and the Parent- Teacher Conferences, guiding visitors through the campus at the Open House, singing Christ- mas carols at Waimano Home, proctoring the entrance examinations and raising funds for the American Cancer Society represent the diversi- ty of activities of this group. People join the Math Club because they enjoy math and the thrill of academic competition with other schools, commented John Wong, chairman. Assisting Wong was Jeff Chung, co-chair- man. With strong performances by Wendell Ching and Thomas Hashimoto, combined with depth from the underclassmen, the team improved considerably. The members practice regularly enjoying direction from Mrs. Mary Bertrand. This year, the new and exciting event for the Math Club was a mini-meet held at Damien in December.
