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.

Included in the itinerary were visits to Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Monticello. Piling into two buses early Monday morning, the drowsy juniors were fully awakened at Monticello, the home of Thomas Jefferson, as they admired the beautiful architecture and styling. An afternoon at Jamestown, the tirst per- manent English settlement, provided historical background to the first be- ginnings of America. The junior class rounded up their trip by making a detailed tour of Wil- liamsburg, the restored Virginia capi- tal, where they spent the night at the Williamsburg Inn. Rifle!! 5 .
