Progressive SCA designs new executive council SCA OFFICERS BOB ACKERLY AND ANN GORDON JEN: KINS study convention plans for fellow club members’ April trip. Tomorrow begins today! That was the theme for the Student Cooperative Association Convention at Douglas Freeman. Mr. Vincent Cuervo, a new Spanish teacher from Cuba, spoke on the threat of communism. Carolyn Hitt planned the program for discussion and debates on world affairs for the course of the day, November 18, as twenty-five speakers came from differ- ent parts of Virginia for the convention. This year the SCA had a fifth period study hall which planned and presented “This was your life, Char- lie Cheater” for the honor code assembly, after which the sophomore class and transfers had a chance to sign the Honor Code. Under the supervision of Miss Ada Land and Miss Rose Frost, the SCA advisers, a six- member board, enlarged the SCA council. The student body elected Anne Askew, Joe Kent, Susan Thomas, Mauna Gray, Judy Leard and Beverly Ledford to pre- side on the executive council. For the school year of 62 Bob Ackerly, president; Rick Irby, vice-president; Fran Jarrett, secretary; and Ann Gordon Jenkins, treasurer, governed the SCA. This year the junior class and SCA joined together for Talent Night with Paul Waddy and Fran Jarrett as co-chairmen for the production on March 30-31. Sophomores had the bene- fit of the Rebel yell which the SCA sold to guide be- wildered students. SCA also aided the PTA in the sale of aluminum foil for the Christmas season.

Made up of both jun- iors and seniors, the society requires at least a ninety- two average for membership. The NHS honored twenty-one seniors at the fall tap- ping. Tapped at the spring ceremony were senior Sandy Tutwiler and juniors John Graham, Tom Thurston, Neil Carey, Marcia Seume, Carol Ann Shaffer, Marcia Galumbeck, Beth Glaser, Pat Caver, Marty Cramme, Susan Brown, Susan Marmon, and Anne Betts. Held in the auditorium before the student body, the programs acquainted Rebels with the aims of the club and quali- fications for membership. Following the tapping cer- emonies, new members and their parents attended a reception in the library. The society began a new fund-raising project this year. Members collected Dulany frozen food wrappers. Homecoming and the Homecoming parade provided activities for the club. A red and white convertible, trimmed with blue and gold paper, carried the NHS Homecoming princess, Betsy Garber.
