Honor Students That the future of a nation depends upon the youth of the land is an accepted statement. Undoubtedly it is also true that the youth in question derives most of its ideals of leadership, civic duty and social relationship from the as- sociations formed during high school days. With this thought in mind, the Bowlegs High School faculty holds a special council toward the end of each school session for the purpose of determin- ing the boy and girl whose services and example have been of most value to the school during that year. Doris Swan, winner of the girl's award for ,this year has a notable list of achievements to her credit. She has served capably as president 'of the Delta Rho for the past two years, has proved a decided asset as a student librarian, has eagerly done her share as a pep squad member for three years, and has acquitted herself so well in all her classwork that she holds a high rank in the honor society. This year, she added to the list of her accomplishments with a credit- able performance as the feminine lead in the Senior Play. Perhaps Doris' most valuable work, however, has been done as editor of the Bison News. She has served in this capacity for two Charles Meyer Probably no boy in school has a more im- pressive list of extra-curricular activities than Charles Meyer, who receives the award as the most valuable boy of the year. Charles, who lettered for three years in football served this year in the important position of blocking half- backg he has also lettered for three years in basketball . In addition to his athletic participa- tion, Charles has a distinguished array of honors in the musical field. He has been a member of the band throughout his high school career and last year was placed in the first division for trombone solo at the district meet at Ada. He is also a member of the Boys' Chorus, the Boys' Quartet and has placed in the All-State Band for the past two years. As further evidence of his versatility he has cast in both the Junior and Senior plays, where his sense of responsi- bility and dependability served to good advan- tage. years and has taken full advantage of the un- usual opportunities for service which the editor- ship afforded. Through her editorials she has helped mold the opinions and elevate the aspira- tions of her fellow students. Through an in- dustrious search for school news of all kinds she has helped to integrate the various aspects of school life and to inspire loyalty for our school as a whole. Doris Swan Both Doris and Charles are typical of the best to be found in American youth today. A Page Eighty-Seven
