Each year a boy and a girl are chosen by the faculty to have their names engraved on the Honor Plaque, which was presented several years ago by the University of Michigan Club. These students are selected for their qualities of scholarship, sportsmanship and leadership. This year’s honor students are Marian Cheney and Wayne Holmes. Marian Cheney has taken an active part in band for five years and has been a member of G. A. A., Girl Reserves and Footlighteers.
