A member of the Honor Society is chosen because he has proven himself to have four qualities--scholarship, leadership, character, and service to his school. The first initiation of the 1953-195A school year was held February 12. Only seniors were eligible and four people: Harriet Boswell, Margaret Johnson, Carole Westerhold, and John Burmeister were elected to the Society. After the ceremony, a tea, under the direction of Mrs. McCall and the Home Ee. Department, was given in Miss Tetley's room for the initiates, their parents and friends. The Honor Society had a busy year. It gave a radio program, sponsored an assembly dedicating a memorial plaque to the war dead of our school, and presented two initiation ceremonies. The officers elected for this year were: Gretchen Karsch, president, Larry Meyer, vice-president, and Barbara Foster, secretary. Membership in the Honor Society is one of the most coveted honors in our school. This page compliments of FAIR DEPARTMENT STORE

The Student Council has been very active this year in both school and community. The most publicized project was the Planned Progress Program sponsored by the Union Electric Company. The plans from this project are to be carried out by the community in the future and the Council sincerely hopes that it will be successful. The Student Council does many Nbehind-the-scenen things that most students don't know about. Of course they know that it gives a Christmas Dance, sponsors Christmas decorating, helps make rules, etc. but they don't know the many seemingly small things that are accomplished. The Student Council is just what the name implies - a group of students, representing their classes, who work for the betterment of the school. Just one of the many sessions to work on the Planned Progress Pro - gram. nTubN Yeargain, Richard Kono, Danny Giessing, Carole Eberhart, and Chuck Cozean hard at work. W 16
