These candidates are then considered by a faculty committee which recommends them for membership. Not more than fifteen per cent of the Senior Class and five per cent of the Junior Class are elected each year. On April 22, 1941, five members were initiated into the National Honor Society. The emblem of the society, which is a lighted torch placed on a keystone, was presented to the following Seniors: Arabella Hernandez, Antoinette Senatore and Helen Doering, and to Ralph Redman and Dorothy Dyer, Juniors. Aldo Bettelli. Dick Boyd, and Maxine Ossola, active members since 1940, were in charge of the initiation. OFFICERS PRESIDENT Aldo Bettelli VICE-PRESIDENT .........................

THESPIANS The National Thespians are a non-secret, non-social society, organized for the purpose of rewarding and stimulating better high-school dramatics. It is exclusively devoted to educational dramatics in the secondary schools of the United States. Its aim is to create an interest and appreciation of dramatics for pleasure and wise use of leisure time. Admission into the society requires a year of Mask-and-Wig and a major role in a three-act play or three minor roles. During the first semester a theater party was held. The picture was Thornton Wilder's play, “Our Town. The Thespians presented the fall play, “Some Call It Love, and directed the contest plays. During the second semester they sponsored “Twelfth Night. given by the Koshare players, and gave a banquet for them. Two initiations were held during the year.
