Treasurer. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY In November too, wonder and comment again ran high. Who would be the students named to Aurora's Hematite Chapter that semester? The entire stu- dent body knew the scholarship committee was compiling the faculty's ratings of the scholastically elegible candidates on--Character, Leadership, Service. Finally the day came when the seven active members gave an assembly program to initiate the accepted candidates. Three juniors and four seniors were called from the student body to the platform, where they were given the charges of Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service. They were given lighted candles representing the Society's four character traits, repeated the Society's pledge, and signed the charter. As full-fledged members they were then given their pins and identification cards. 1955 Fall Initiates, the Juniors, Sydney Ann Colvin, Doran Koste, Henry Jo Paulisich, and Seniors, Lois Boese, Glenna Hostetter, Janet Johnston, and Jackie Johnston had received the highest honor to be given high school students.

At home games one side of the gym is reserved for the Pep Club, which reallybolsters the team. Last year a bus was chartered for transportation to most of the out-of-town games. Some of the fans even managed to attend the game at International Falls, quite a distance from here. With this enthusiasm of members, the Pep Club should keep on as a hugh success.
