Honor Society Cites Top Pupils; SAB Serves All NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY officers, Tom VanArsdale, president; Jan Stephenson, secretary; Sherry Braun, treasurer; and Dick VanArsdale, vice-president, help Mr. Ed Wall, sponsor, prepare the large torch for initiation, which was April 23 in the auditorium. Thirty-seven new members were initiated into the Manual chapter of the National Honor Society, Sunday afternoon, April 23. Parents and friends of the fourteen juniors and twenty-three seniors attended the ceremonies in the Manual auditorium. Membership in the organization is determined by faculty vote based first on scholarship, and then on leader- ship, character and service. The first Manual Student Affairs Board was originated in January, 1948, by Mr. E. H. Kemper McComb, then Manual principal. Since that time the Board has sponsored pro- jects which provide entertainment for students and aid for the school. Members are chosen by student vote. Representatives from every Home Room assist the Board, which monitors all-school elections. Dances after basketball games are sponsored by the Board. A scholar- ship fund in memory of Don Kleppe, who died in September as a result of a football injury, was also set up this year. Mr. John Patten, Dean of boys, is faculty sponsor. The faculty is represented on the Board by Mr. John Ed- wards and Mr. Ray Hawkins. STUDENT AFFAIRS BOARD — SEATED: Phil Steel, David Morris, Wayne Monroe, Patsy Briggs, Lee Foster, Roberta Perkins, Sharon Jones, Carol Davis, Linda Hansen.
