I News 8 What Happened Then Many events made the news in 1987. These events affected most people in that they created opinion on different subjects, made people think about the World around them or sympathize with or antipathetic against someone. Politics played an important role in the news. American's watched as Lt. Col. Oliver North testified before the Iran-Contra hearings. Some people claimed North was a hero while oth- ers believed that North was a law- breaker and should be punished. Conflicting opinions were also creat- ed with President Reagan's nomina- tion of Robert Bork to the Supreme Court. This nomination was eventual- ly rejected by the Senate. Reagan's second nomination of William Gins- burg was withdrawn after Ginsburg admitted he smoked marUuana a few times in the 60's and 70's. Also with- drawing from a political situation was Democratic presidential candidate, Gary Hart, who admitted to romantic involvement mth Donna Rice. In October, Southem California was rocked by an earthquake which mea- sured 6.1 on the Richter scale. Also in October, the whole nation was stunned by a 508 point drop in the Dow Jones industrial stock average. This tremendous drop caused uncer- tainty in the market and many stock- holders lost money. One such stock- holder, who lost over one million dollars, ended up killing himself and his stockbroker. Nineteen-eighty seven was a time to say good-by to many popular enter- tainers such as Fred Astaire, Liberace, John Huston, Lee Marvin, the Great one Jackie Gleason, and Lorne Green.

Mrs. Mallory explains the qualifications and expectations of National Honor Society inductees at the National Honor Society Induction Cere- mony held in October. Many students work hard to get this recognition and they must continue their excellent academic record to remain a HS member. The VGIZV Best Academic excellence proved to be more than just , ' work, work, work for many of Hardaway's '87-'88 sen- iors. Becoming a senior took three years but many I I students looked forward to an organization known to the student body as the National Honor Society. I The requirements for N.H.S. were changed due to the I I new College Preparatory curriculum endorsed by the I Muscogee County School District. A new requirement I for induction into N.H.S. is that a student has to be I enrolled in both C.P. English IV and C.P. World Histo- I ry in his senior year. This senior class was the first of I many to be faced with this extra requirement. The I other requirement was to have and maintain a 5.5 grade point average since the senior's freshman year I students were judged on character, leadership, ser- vice, and scholarship. I i During the school year, the National Honor Society committed themselves to numerous activities I around the school and throughout the community. They sponsored a tutoring program to help students I who attended Hardaway high in needed areas of study. Together with their excellence and dedication, seniors committed themselves to making society the I Q best that it could possibly be. With the help of some members of the Hardaway High School faculty, meet- I I ings, and clubs organizations, the members reached 5 their outstanding goals. i - -' -' '- - -'I Anita Crash , , l Bubba Newel M I H fr awwadmf..
