You're on the wrong stairs, is a typical remark which reaches the ears of the bewildered sophomores, struggling to adapt themselves to their new surroundings. However, they find most of their upperclassmen quite friendly, and gradually the contagious school spirit of Hickory High School begins to make itself felt.

Each spring a group of juniors is chosen on the basis of their char- acteristics of leadership, as well as their scholastic accomplishments. These honored students usher at the commencement ex- ercises, Senior Play, and Baccalaureate Sermon. The group elects two chief mar- shals to escort the seniors in the proces- sionals and recessionals included in the ex- ercises.

REPRESENTATIVES VVorking with their parents and school faculty, the P.T.A. representatives serve to benefit their school and surrounding com- munity. By supporting projects and faith- fully attending all P.T.A. meetings, these representatives thus improve school facili- ties and relationships. Every student repre- sentative is responsible for collecting mem- bership dues for the P.T.A. Through their efforts in this drive, more members join the association each year. Many home- rooms, by being encouraged and led by their representatives, have obtained a two hundred per cent membership. The im- portant work of the representatives is a bind between students, parents, and teachers, which leads to better understand- ing and fellowship.

One of the most important projects of the chorus is to sing for the Baccalaureate Sermon and the commence- ment exercises at graduation.
