A LITTLE BIT OF GULD TQ WEAR As president of the N. H. S., Chris Clark informed the guests of the function and purposes of the National Honor Society. 'Moral Courage' was the subject of the talk given by Doctor John Wilson who is the Dean of the Honors College at M.S.U. 32 Schools all over the nation strive to recognize those whose achievements are outstanding, and Gabriels High School is no exception. The National Honor Society is the organization instituted specifically for this purpose- honoring those whose character, scholarship, leadership, and service mark them as excellent students. Election to the National Honor Society is not an end in itself, as the elected well know. The shiny, gold hood or stole worn on Induction Day is not the sole factor distin- guishing them from the rest. Rather must they be identified by the manifestation of sterling qualities in all they undertake. That the members have been recognized for their ac- complishments in the past is true. Yet much more is ex- pected of them in the years ahead. Whether or not they continue to display the selflessness and exemplary conduct that has made them stand out is up to them. Brother Athanasius, principal, bestows the gold hood of honor upon Barbara Siegrist, senior member of the N.H.S.

G BRIEL BUILD IT ELF TR DITIQ There is something magical about the make believe world of the theater. Something awe inspiring about the way in which the fantasy life of the assorted characters comes so very close to our own. Gabriels High Schools' Drama Club, under the expert direction of Brother Andre William, has puton two magni- ficent plays and one stupendous musical. When the first play, 'The Night of January 16, was seen by the public, it was thought to have been the best play ever presented by Gabriels. The audience was swept up with the fine acting ability of the studentsi Then the 'Man Who Came To Dinner was presented. The people expected a good production judging from the ticket sales, but they were fooled again, for it turned out to be a great production. 'The King and I' climaxed one fabulous year of acting by combining the efforts of the robed choral and the Drama Club to complete a most successful year. This play had captivating professionalism and a host of brilliant per- formers. As Brother Andre said in the beginning of the school year, 'Each play will become progressivelybetter. Wewill leave the audience cravingly hungry for more, but never giving it until the next play. Professor Metts presents his gift, 'Roach City' to the ailing Sheridan Whiteside, Tim McNeill, as Burt Jefferson and Maggie Cutler look on in amazement. 34 Mary Polzien and John Kohn played the reluctant host and hostess. Becky Dutzy and Kathy Faggion were leading ladies in 'The Man Who Came to Dinner.
