SENIOR SENATE For many years the governing body of the senior class has been the Senior Senate. This is a very active and able group of persons, composed of the class officers and a representative from each senior homeroom. Miss Heck serves as faculty advisor. The Senior Senate meets every other Tuesday to discuss problems that have come before the class. The first major task was the election of class officers. The Senate worked as a nominat- ing committee, screening names and preparing a ballot.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The four cardinal principles of the National Honor Society are scholarship, leadership, char- acter, and service. These principles are the set pattern by which pupils are inducted. Although scholarship is one of the objectives, it is not more important than the others. To be inducted into the Honor Society, one must maintain an eighty- eight average throughout high-school. Leader- ship is carried out by the members by their willingness to serve as a leader when called upon to do so, for other clubs as well as Honor Society. Good moral standards, personal integrity, and a pleasing personality, are the main characteristics of each member's obligation, character. Last but not least of the objectives is service. The Society this year sponsored an assembly, 'tWar Crimes of Germanyf' caroled in the halls, discussed colleges with the members, rendered their service around school, and to charity.
