ey Club Serves Hickman Key Club is a service organization sponsored by the Columbia Kiwanas Club. Its manyworth-while pro- jects are heartily approved and appreciated by the Hickman administration. Each member is expected to display the characteristics of initiative, leadership, dependability, scholarship, and service: however,few, if any, fail in any one of these virtues. Key Club is invaluable in student-faculty relations for it serves as a mediator in important school issues by taking students problems to the administration. Every year the Key Club publishes a student- faculty directory. This book is extremely helpful to both students and faculty by making it possible to find a student's telephone number without knowing his parents name. At Christmas time all Hickman home rooms fill a Christmas basket for a needy family, and it is the job of the Key Club to distribute these baskets to deserving families. Few benefit from this service but the gratitude for the project makes all the work very worth-while. During the year the Key Club also sponsors a new student's tea and a back-to-school dance, Hickman would definitely not be the productive school it is if it were not for the great service rendered by the Key Club, I ltON'I' ROW: Easley, Steinberg, Sutton, Hartley, Dickenson, Beasley, NIL-Arthur, Simon.

The society encourages students not only to strive for scho- lastic attainment, but also to build the best character possible as well as good leadership while serving the school, Members are inducted twice a year at the fall and spring initiations. Five percent of the upper fifteen per- cent of the class are accepted in the second semester of the junior year, the second five percent the first semester of the senior year, and the last five percent the second semester of the senior year, The present society members vote on the candidates, but the final decision is made by a faculty committee consisting of Miss Kitchens, Miss Ingrum, Mrs, Nelson, Mr. Chevalier, and Mr. Steere. A tea after the tap assemblies honors the new members and their parents. The quarterly honor roll is sponsored bythis honor- ary club. To qualify for this honor, students must earn at least an S plus average in solid subj ects. Recognition of an outstanding sophomore is also made by the club at the annual awards assembly in May.

Trlreme Sponsors New Students Tea The governing force of the girl student body, Triship, is Trireme. It consists of sixteen senior girls who qualify in standards, sociability, and leadership. Trireme girls head eight committees in Triship which are important in the functioning of Trireme and Triship, A small fee gives any girl the privilege to contrib- ute in making Trireme successful, The assembly committee prepares skits for special assemblies, The costume room committee attempts to keep the unlimited supply of costumes organized. The faculty room committee prepares coffee in the morning, and tries to keep the room Com- fortable for the teachers. The finance committee, small but necessary, is re- sponsible for the pecuniary affairs, while the rest room committee makes curtains, paints waste cans, and puts up book shelves in the girls' rest rooms. The project committee plans activities, the Trireme room committee keeps its own room neat and tidy, and the ushering committee is represented at every Hickman eveningpro- gram. Some of Trireme's special activities are the new students tea, a back-to-school dance, and one of the year's most popular fun-fests, the Sadie Hawkins dance, Where the decoration committee transforms the cafeteria into a romping, stomping, dog patch.
