PELLMAN, FAIRFIELD SPEAKAT INDUCTIONS Dr. Hubert Pellman of EMC related some of the past history of our school which pointed to the ideals held by the National Honor Society as the members tapped two new entrants at the fall induction in Sep- tember. Spring inductions featured the tapping of eight new members. The preliminary address was given by Mr. James Fairfield. Fairfield, in providing insights on true honor, challenged the student body to relate pos- itively to the school and fellowmen. Teas for parents of new inductees, Honor Society members, and faculty members were held in the home economics lab following the tapping assemblies. The National Honor Society holds up the ideals of truth from which scholarship, leadership, character, and service evolve. Only those students are tapped who hold honor roll status and are rated proficient in all categories by the faculty. 20 ' I Karla Showalter performs the traditional lighting of a candle upon induction into the Honor Society. Mr. James Fairfield emphasizes the tnie meanings of service, character, leadership, and scholarship at the February Honor Society induction. Debby Fairfield, Honor Society President., begins induction formalities by lighting the first of the symbolic candles.

SENIORS TOUR NATION,S CAPITAL Thursday, November 30, the senior class piled into two chartered buses for a trip to Washington, D.C. The next two days were filled with enjoyable sightseeing. Tour guide, Jay B. Landis, co-ordinated the activites which included visits to Mt. Vernon, Arlington National Cemetery, government buildings, and other interesting places. The seniors used the Twin Bridges Marriott Motor Hotel as a base for their weekend in Washington. A traditional event, the class trip breaks the monotony of classrooms and books and pro- vides an excellent opportunity to learn to know classmates better.
