Student Council Qepresentative Body Few high school sTudenTs realize ThaT The STudenT Council is not a separaTe organizaTion, buT is a represenTaTive group oT sTudenTs selecTed Trom each class and club. ITs aim is To promote The weliare oT all The acTiviTies OT The schoolg Thus The council belongs To every sTudenT. This year, in order To encourage more acTive parTicipaTion in school aTTairs, a sysTem was inauguraTed in which all home rooms seT aside one halT-hour period each monTh Tor The discussion oT school inTeresTs. This sysTem made iT possible Tor The STudenT Council To more accuraTely voice sTudenT reaciion in The soluTion' oT The various problems ThaT arose. The work oT The council was varied. The chapel commiTTee, composed oT TiTTeen members planned assembly programs oT various Types, including Those in which The sTudenTs parTicipaTed as well as guesT speakers, moTion picTures, and exchange programs. Perhaps The mosT popular oT The social evenTs sTaged by The council were The P.A. dances which were held aTTer The baslceTball games. These sTricTly sTag aTTairs were well aTTended by boTh Tellows and girls. The aThleTic dance, honoring boTh The TooTball and baslceTball Teams, was The big evenT OT The year. Aside Trom These special acTiviTies The council lenT iTs supporl' To all proiecTs sponsored by The various organizations. T541 National l-lonor Society Admits New lvlembers The most impressive chapel ot the year is the one set aside tor the installation ot the new members ot the National l'lonor S lil? Society. The program has become so traditional that when the National Honor Society is' mentioned, there are tew Bellevue X15 students who do not immediately thmlc ot all the members seated rl l on the stage. ln this ceremony, the old members set torth the meaning ot the organization tor the benetit ot the new members and those underclassmen who hope to be part ot the society some day. This may be the lceyhole scene with which everyone is tamiliar, but there is much more behind this organization. The membership is exclusive. Candidates must stand in the tirst third ot their classes, have spent one year in Bellevue l-ligh School, and possess superiority in leadership, character, and service. Perhaps no organization has such an excellent intluence on the whole school. lt has done much to promote earnest endeavor in the classroom, desire tor leadership in school activities, and honor in all phases ot school lite. ' Although the club has no specific activities, the society is very much a part ot school lite. The members are expected to uphold the ideals set up by the club and to encourage others to strive toward the same goal. - New senior members lseatedl: Hartley, Dowling, Neavitt, Shepard, Newton, France, Dun- ham.

Concert Given by Qrchestra Bellevue High School Orchestra turnishes many interesting keyhole glimpses. ln one ot the most impressive, they are seen playing before an auditorium packed with lovers ot classical and semi-classical music. This is readily recognized as one ot their well-known concerts. The size ot the orchestra shows that music has a strong attraction tor our students, the intent manner in which they play tells us they are interested in their work, and the appreciation ot the audience is proot ot the truly tine quality ot their music. All those who ever attended a Bellevue High School Orchestra Concert can attest to these tacts. The tableaux presented to the audience by the orchestra on the night ot the concert is the result ot tong hours ot practice. These rehearsals are very tamiliar keyhole scenes to every Bellevue I-ligh student, tor many slip quietly into the auditor- ium on the day ot practice in the hope ot hearing their tavorite selections. One more keyhole glimpse precedes the concert. There are many tickets to be sold. Every orchestra member, his little pack ot tickets in hand, torges torth into the community to urge all to buy a ticket and support the orchestra. Many respond tor they know the enjoyment which is derived. Truly, much time and ettort is put into a concert, but every bit ot it is well worthwhile, tor the tinal presentation has great value and attords much pleasure.

Orchestra Wins State Contest All these activities seem to work up to the climax and greatest keyhole scene ot all-the participation in the state-wide contests where, tor the sixth time, the Bellevue High School Orchestra earned tirst place-a tine record tor any school. The contest this year was held in Norristown under the supervision ot the Pennsylvania Forensic and Musical League in which high schools trom all sections ot the state compete in the tields ot public speaking and music. The one hundred and titty representatives trom Bellevue I-ligh School participated in tive musical events. Two ot the three competive instrumental groups received a tirst rating. The orchestra is not only a contest group but is exceptionally well known to all students as it participates in practically every activity in the school. While stage- hands trantically shitt scenery between the acts ot a play, the orchestra entertains us with one ot its many selections. No chapel is complete without the stirring reces- sional and processional marches, to say nothing ot the times they have tavored the students with the best-loved selections trom Rose Marie , Showboat and other semi-classical numbers.

Although they were disappointed in not obtaining a tirst rating, as they had in the two preceding years, the school is justly proud ot their accomplishment. Activities ot the year were centered chietly around the preparation tor inter- school competition, but'Mr. Blough and the chorus still tound time to give two concerts, one in March and the other in May. Probably the outstanding work ot the chorus was the beautitul Christmas service given by the choir and the orchestra. The choir robed in red satin and blaclc velvet gowns gave an impressive rendition ot the Yuleticle songs-creating a true Christmas spirit. Then too, we were entertained by them in several school Chapels. All in all the choir has kept its members very busy, but their compensation, winning tirst place in the County Contest at Bellevue, the Sectional Contest at Greensburg, and second place in the State Contest at Norristown, repaid them tully tor the many hours ot diligent worlc. Although the competing choruses were tar above the average. Bellevue's singing ot My God How Vilondertul Thou Art and the selected song Let Thy Mercitul Ears , tar surpassed that ot the majority ot the groups. Later the chorus, as is their custom, will sing at graduation. This is surely a titting and appropriate close to the program ot this active organization. - i531 Girls' Glee Club lvlalses Charming Picture IT one preTTy girl is like a melody, Then our chorus must represent a symphony.

Betty Bauer, Helen Hersperger, and Doris Hammerle have done much both as individual soloists and as members ot the choruses to merit special mention tor their ettorts. We prophesy success in their musical careers. Male Quartet Favorite The male quartet is a group ot which we may well be proud. We will never torget how the quartet sang Old Man Noah in chapel.

The preparation, cooking, and serving ot the delicious meal were all done by the girls ot the various toods classes under the supervision ot Miss Buttermore. Many were the exclamations ot delight when tasty city chicken, colortul truit salad, and ice cream were put betore the members ot the taculty and their wives. Room Thirty-one was testivally decorated in a Yuletide rnotit. In the center ol the table stood stately white tapers surrounded by silver balls and evorgreens. For tavors, tiny evergreen corsages, resembling minia- was yu. +4-r sin, ture Christmas trees with silver-wrapped chocolates attached, were given to the guests. The dinner was very intormal. with the teachers iffy indulging in witty remarlcs at the expense ot others. The only speaker was Mr, Brumbaugh, who introduced a new-comer to the North Bor- T oughs, Mr. Floyd, the superintendent ot Ben Avon Schools. In appre- -f '- ciation tor this testive dinner the guests extended a vote ot thanlcs to J Miss Buttermore and her assistants.

An important phase of this work is the selection and periodic analysis of secur- ities. Although one man may be ex- ceptionally skilled in investment, actual practice has shown the desirability of having several lend their knowledge. That is why we utilize group judg- ment in subjecting securities to careful study.
