THE RESULTS DF WORK ARE HRNOHS NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY In what arc always the most impressive assemblies of the year, ten students were admitted to the National Honor Society. Former members, robed in black, went into the audience, tapping the deserving people. When all had been gathered, their qualifications were read. Then the four points: scholarship, leadership, character and service, of the National Honor Society were told to them, after which each new member took its pledge. Mr. Zollinger then gave them membership cards, a certificate, and a National Honor Society pin. Those members who were admitted this year and their scholastic rating are as follows: Dale Dickens 3.102, Jane Watts 3.849, Jack Hull 3.758, Lois Bonifant 3.286, Helen Fleming 3.236, Lois Day 3.538, Bonibelle Allard 3.188, Marguerite Singer 3.377, Jean Tatman 3.070, all from the class of '39, and Betty Atcr 3.717, from the class of '40. AMERICAN LEGION AWARDS A committee of five Junior High School teachers picked the most outstanding boy and girl from the eighth grade, for the American Legion Award. The qualifications for this award are for both boy and girl: characteristics of courage, scholarship, and service to their fellow classmates and their school. The only difference in qualifications are for the boy to have honor and leadership, while for the girl, character and companionship. The boy and girl chosen this year was Herman Sturgill, and Norma Sue Luster. Jean Brown and Jay Sowers were the winners last year.

They sent a boy to Boys' State, selected another to be sponsored by the American Legion, purchased two trees which arc now growing on the high school lawn, paid $25 toward the public address system and painted the flag pole. This year an amendment was made to the council constitution which provided that the presidents of the other clubs be made members of the council. On April 21, the council sponsored a party for the basketball boys. This was to take the place of the annual student council banquet for the athletic teams. Another outstanding innovation was inaugurated by this year's council. New Lex High School and Crooksville High School exchanged assembly programs. Each council transported their talent to the other schtxil and presented their program. It is hoped that this will become a custom in the years to come. The scout troop 33 is also a student council project. Another new feature was the “Little White Shoe,” which is to become the football trophy between Crooksville and New Lex. At the end of 11 years of play the school having won it the most times will become permanent possessor of this valued trophy. Dr. Tedrow of this city donated the shoe.
