Beta officers are Ellen Shell, President; C. T. Hill, Vice-President; Bowlin, Secretary; and Rhonda Pennington, Treasurer. Honesty and leadership head the ideals promoted by the Beta Club. New members were selected not only on these qualifications but also by maintaining a grade average of “B” throughout the eighth, ninth, and tenth grades. Those chosen were tapped into the club in an open assembly held in March. Once again the Beta Club planned and presented the Valentine program for both the elementary grades and high school. Highlighting the year was the Beta Convention held at the Hotel Roanoke in March where members became acquainted with the work of the state and national Beta Clubs. Special recognition was brought to CHS’s Beta Club by Doris Toney who won first place for a poem she submitted to the National Beta Journal. A new project was mailing boxes of hose to Viet- nam for use in hospitals there. Betas exemplify leadership and achievement FRONT ROW: Ellen Shell, President; C. T.
