Only students who ex- celled in academic areas were allowed to join, The grade point average had to be kept at 3.65. Out of all the members of this club, Todd Boone was chosen president, Scott Isley, vice-president, and Debbie Nobles, secretary-treasur- er. One of the major duties of the Na- tional Honor Society was the tutoring of students within the entire school system. Yet not all of the activities were of the intellectal nature, The an- nual Donkey Basketball game was a highlight of the school year. The fac- ulty played against the students in a friendly game of basketball, except with a twist, they were riding don- keys. Another privilege reserved for ju- niors within the area was being cho- sen to attend Girls' and Boys' State. The sponsors of this were the Ameri- can Legion, and American Legion Auxilary. Those chosen to attend went through a long process. The pos- sible candidates composed a short es- say concerning why they wished to attend, and they made a list of all ac- tivities, and honors held. When select- ed to go, the juniors spent a week at- tending government-related meet- ings. The Girls' State is held every vyear at East Central University in Ada. The first thing that Girls did was break down into individual towns where no one knew anyone else. After attending a meeting of the towns, the girls learned various songs ranging from Oklahoma to A Man With- out a Girls' State. From that moment on the girls did not stop singing. Katharina Van House was heard to say, lf I sing 'Oklahoma' one more time I'll die. Katharina said she only sang it 153 times. The food at Girls' State was described as quite good, as one of the staters was forced to admit that she gained five pounds while in Ada. On the more serious side, the girls elected and ran for various offices. A Legislature and Governor were elected out of 435 members. 78 Boys' State, NHS X16 is i ,ae : .
