With an average of 3.76, Betty Sumerix has captured the second place of honor, that of saluta- toriam Although originally a commercial student, she changed during the last two years to a college preparatory course and now has majors in English and social studies. An active girl, Betty was secretary of this year’s Student Council, a member of Girl Reserves, had a leading part in the junior play, has attended four Honor Banquets, and has participated in band and orchestra. To two students, a boy and a girl, goes the honor of having their names engraved on the Honor Plaque presented to the school by the University of Michigan Club. These persons are picked by the faculty from each year’s graduating class on the basis of scholarship, leadership, and sportsmanship. This year we salute Betty Sumerix and Joseph Pray. Betty Sumerix has acquired the unusual dis- tinction of receiving both salutatorian honors and having her name placed on this plaque. Joseph Pray, better known as just plain “Joe”, was president of his class during his sophomore year. He has earned letters in football, basketball and track, was president of the Hi-Y club, and a member of the band and orchestra. Joe has an average of 3.44 and has attended 6 honor banquet .
