President Steve Pore awards Julie Spencer and Bonnie Jones their membership cards that other members received at the induction ceremonies on December 13. New members also receive NHS pins, but the order for them has not been placed. Now that the new members have been initiated and officially accepted, NHS is geared toward helping others in the school and community. Tentative plans were made to tutor students in math and science, while other members help the elderly by doing odd jobs like washing windows and shoveling snow. National Honor Society president, Steve Pore, is the person in charge of the meetings. He works closely with the other officers to come up with ideas for community services and fund raisers and presents them to the organization for their approval. The year got off to a slow start because attendance was low at the meetings scheduled during school hours. The meetings were moved to before school because many of the NHS members had honors classes they felt they could not afford to miss. 29

NHS Awakens Inductees Early one November morn- ing, Qalong the lines of 5:3OJ, several students who were tapped by the National Honor Society were rudely awakened and brought to school still in their pajamas. A test was given to determine' how well the smartest students in the school wake up. This was the NHS ini- tiation. The purpose of NHS was to honor outstanding students. We try to make NHS some- thing students have to work for by doing services for others, remarked treasurer Mark Cass- man. Criteria for membership was based on scholarship, ser- vice, leadership, and character. These qualities were considered important for individuals to be an active, positive force in the school and community. Stu- dents must maintain a 3.5 grade point average and have applica- tions filled out by six teachers. The highest goal of this year was to create a sense of belong- ing within the group. This is the only non-study group in the school for the academic achievers, commented Adviser Kay Tomsich. We are trying to get them together in a social at- mosphere with the intent of do- ing service projects. Services were organized to help the senior citizens with shoveling snow and washing windows. Other activities planned were the fund raising rock+a-thon and numerous bake sales. 54 he ,,,,,, , S After receiving her membership card, Denise Mikita shakes hands with treasurer, Mark Gassman and adviser, Mrs. Kay Tomsich. Thirty one new members were offically accepted at this Tuesday evening ceremony.

POISON- NOT PICTUREDI Gina Gomez- For A Losing Team . . . HHUSKIE POWER!!! , LET'S C-O HUSKlES!!! , and LET'S C1O DC, LET'S GO DCU! As the noise of the game continued, strains of LET'S GET ROWDYUV' and other cheers were heard above the squeak of basketball shoes on the polished wooden floor. This year, football and soccer cheerleaders put hours of time and tons of effort into repre- senting the school and support- ing the teams. No one really realizes how much time goes into it, said football cheer- leader Patti Shaefer. Other squads for different sports felt the same way. Cheerleaders did little things to boost the spirit and morale of the teams, such as baking cook- ies or drawing a poster that simply says Go Huskies. The cheerleaders not only add to the spirit of the team, but to stu- dents' spirit also. Basketball cheerleader Marti Meuli remembered, The team thanked the cheerleaders for getting the crowd involved, a necessary factor when it comes to esprit de corps. When the football cheer- leaders were asked if it was hard to cheer for a losing team, there were mixed reactions. Mary Glimpse explained, The football players haven't given up, so why should we?
