Make School Pteasanter for Fellow Redskins With Mr. Richard Blough resuming sponsorship, Roines began the year by sponsoring the annual Roines ROMP. Their 50 th Anniversary was marked by a semi-formal, the first dress-up dance of the year, for the entire school in November. Annual Christmas project of Roines was placing the large, traditional wreath above the main en- trance of the school. This is put together by the members who weave pine boughs into a wire-covered frame, fifteen feet in diameter. The frame, which comes apart in segments, was made by members. The Roines added another duty to their list by accepting the responsibility for the outside bulletin board which faces Madison Avenue and advertises Manual activities to passersby. They check the board each Monday morning to keep it up to date. Roines boys manned the checkroom on Alumni night for the convenience of the Quests. April 1 brought fun for all as the annual Roines- Faculty basketball game brought students and teach- ers alike to the gymnasium to root for their cohorts. Masomas were cheerleaders fo r Roines. iMfflCH W I MILITARY BALL MARCH .. -=, mar- ; - • I! 26 x $?jsm Bruce Arnold and Steve Susemichel arrange announcements.

Masoma, Rolnes Serve Manual, Alums, Faculty, Presenting Freshman Vicki Fritrs with a prize for the most original name tag is Sue Huppert. This contest has become a traditional activity of the Masoma-Freshman Mixer. Membership for Roines and Masoma, senior honoraries, is based on scholarship, character, and service. Both clubs were founded in 1914 with the basic aim of service to Manual. These two groups combine efforts at the beginning of each semester to assist freshman in their Home Rooms and to help guide them through their first weeks of high school. Members also offer individual tutoring to those Avho need help with their studies. The Masoma-Freshman Mixer provided 9-B ' s with an opportunity to get acquainted. To Clothe a child was Masoma ' s annual project. The girls spon- sored a car wash to raise money and presented a complete wardrobe to a needy child at Christmas. Masomas waited tables at the Fall Athletic Banquet and served at the annual Alumni birthday party din- ner in February. The Masomas ended the year ' s activities by sponsoring a dance, April 10.

National Honor Society Cites Top Scholars New members of the National Honor Society were announced by President Paul Stroud in a junior-senior auditorium. Verse introduced each new 1 member, su mming up his achievements. Scholarship, leadership, service, and character are the traits of a National Honor Society member. This year, twenty-two seniors and fourteen juniors were inducted into Manual ' s chapter on April 25, increasing the membership to fifty-four. The National Honor Society was founded in 1 2 1 in Pennsylvania, but Manual ' s chapter was not esta- blished until 1956. NHS strives to create an enthusiasm for scholar- ship throughout a school. Its national scope gives the Honor Society a high significance and an un- usual prestige. The national organization admin- isters a scholarship fund which has provided scholar- ships, awards, and certificates of merit to outstand- ing students going to college. It feels that one of the hopes for better high schools in the future rests on the members of the National Honor Society. All juniors elected must have a grade average of 6.75 and seniors must have a 6.25 average. The membership cannot exceed 3 percent of the junior class or 10 percent of the senior class. Qualified stu- dents are chosen by vote of the faculty. Although some chapters of the National Honor Society are service organizations, Manual ' s chapter is strictly an Honorary and has no activities. The organization ' s insignia is a gold keystone.
