CR Society Seeks Goal of Service Completing its first full-year of service, the Cardinal Ritter High School chapter of the National Honor Society was highly re- sponsible for an exciting school year. They presented the Indiana State University players in William Shakespeare ' s historical tragedy Henry IV, sponsored the most successful mixer of the year, initiated twenty more students, and invited Mayor Richard Lugar as program speaker. On the physical and more humorous side, the members were known to be cleaners of the school. On three occasions they swept and scrubbed the halls and floors so that the best image of Ritter could be shown. They worked always for scholar- ship, leadership, character, and service. Mayor Richard G. Lugar, guest speaker at the National Honor Society Induction Cere- mony, is accompanied to his car by Harry Cangany, President of the NHS.

Board Continues Booster Tradition The Student Executive Board, one of the new programs initiated in Ritter ' s second year, is the most important student organization. It coordi- nates student activities and serves as a connec- tive bet veen students and faculty. The Board sponsored two annual events, the Snowball Dance and Booster Week, along with the Senior-Faculty basketball game this year. All other student activities had to be approved by the Board to avoid conflicts in dates and use of facilities. The election of Executive Board officers takes place in May with campaign posters and speeches. Each homeroom and the YCS elect a representative and alternate to the Board, all representatives having one vote. In its short life the Board has proven its value to the whole student body.
