The reason for this is the unusual number of students with outstanding ability in C.F.A. this year. The present members were chosen at three different times, the spring and fall of 1947, and the spring of 1948. The Honor Society annually conducts two assemblies in which the qualifications for member- ship are reviewed and the new members are selected from the student body. ln the fall only seniors are chosen, but both juniors and seniors are admitted in the spring. The four qualifications for membership are: scholarship, character, leadership and service. ln his scholastic achieve- ment a student must maintain an average of eighty-five percent and must also have a sound character. In his school activities he must show evidence of ability as a leader and he must have rendered service to his school, his fellow students, and his community. The officers of the Society who were elected at this year's fall meeting are: president, Bill McAndrewy vice-president, Duane Welch: secretary, loan Asher: treasurer, Eva Marteny. Mrs. Dewey E. Thomas has also done a commendable job as faculty advisor. page forty-five

The practice was well attended by parents and pre-school children. Both the spectators and per- formers alike enjoyed the event. The appearance of the band at the football games was gladly welcomed by C. F. A. fans and teams. As Well as all their regular appearances in the Mem- orial Day Parade and at football games, the band entertained a large group of veterans at Bath at the softball game held on Memorial Day. Under the excellent leadership of Mr. Walsh the band presented its annual Spring Concert on May 19. The selections included: Sigmund Romberg's lovely Maytime, George G-ershWin's stirring SWanee, and Morton G-ould's lively Pavanne . page forty-seven
