Honor and Distinction The Year in Review HUTCHINSON'S scholarship record for the school year 1934-35 is an unusually high one, as well as one in which constant progress has been made. At the first honor roll assembly on November 23, when Dr. Ernest C. Hartwell, superintendent of the schools of Buffalo, was speaker, 150 Hutchin- sonians were honored for high scholarship. At the second honor roll assembly on February 15, when Dr. Frank C. Densberger, superintendent of the Kenmore schools, presented the awards, 197 Hutchinson students were on the honor roll. At the third honor assembly on May 10, Mr. Henry G. Gilland, headmaster of The Nichols School, was the guest-speaker. On this occasion, 221 Hutchin- sonians received awards for high scholarship. At the time we go to press, figures for the fourth and last quarter are, of course, not yet available. Rivalry for the highest scholarship honors this year was keenest among the underclassmen, a circumstance which points to even keener competition next year. For the first quarter there was a tie for highest honors between Betty lane Mordan, now vice president of the junior class, and Margaret Stet- tenbenz, a 440 sophomore. Both girls achieved an average of 97.2. For the second quarter, Margaret again tied for highest honors-this time with Annette Schwenk of 300. Their averages for this quarter were 97.3. For the third quarter Annette stood highest with an average of 98.4, but Norma Enea, member of the freshman debate team, and of studyroom 477, was close behind her with an average of 97.4. Highest room numbers for the school year went each quarter to Miss Manhardt's studyroom, 300, which placed 24 the first quarter, 32 the second quarter, and 25 the third quarter. Miss Klipfel's freshman room kept climbing throughout the year, having placed second with 14 the first quarter, second with 22 the second, and 22 the third. This year Miss Hall in charge of the ,scholarship committee instituted awards to merit pupils in assembly. Any student attaining an average falling between 85 and 89.9 is entitled to an award for placing on the merit roll. At the first honor roll assembly, 469 pupils won merit awards. This number mounted the second quarter, but fell to 442 awards for merit made in May. This splendid record in scholarship made in the school year 1934-35 calls upon all students who will be sophomores, juniors, or seniors next year to carry on this high distinction. 1935
