I fx THE ORDER OF THE OWL T illffg Row l: Benesh, M. Anderson, Krucsler, Hipkins, Bridgell, Young, Curatolo. Row 2: Paradee, Lekovich, Tosti, Maitland, Harrington, Guglielmi, Tomasetti. One of the highest honors a Ionesite can work towards, is membership in the Order of the Owl. This semester we are happy and proud to welcome Mr. Thomas as our new sponsor, since Miss Doyle, our former well-loved sponsor, is no longer at our school. These students who have worked hard and achieved this high rating are a step ahead of every one. When they go out into the busi- ness world they are going to be adequately trained for the big responsibilities which they are going to be entrusted with. The only qualifications a candidate must have is an average of E in his final marks. Physical Education is also included. He must have E or S in the major subjects. The average of his grades must be 3 points or higher. 4205 The Owls are awarded gold-plated pins which they may wear the entire semester to show the high honor which they have worked so hard to win. If a student is an active rnern- ber of the Order of the Owl two consecutive semesters, he may keep the pin permanently. There are many pleasant surprises in store for Owl members. Claire Harrington, Barbara Olsberg, lean Westaway, and Marion Castro- novo of the 4B class found out just how true this was when they were given the chance to see South Pacific. Before the show began they ushered members of the audience to their seats. Once the show began, they settled down to watch one of the greatest musical hits of all time. There are many such opportunities and advantages for students who are willing to work hard to win them.

THE ORDER OF THE OWL Row 1: Ruscitti, Bereznak, D. Fisher, Rosenthal, Fahey, Szum. Row 2: Schuh, Bentsen, Rasch, Bryson, Guliasi, R. Fischer, Graf. DISCUSSION PIONEERS Don Bilotta, Ioan Graf, and Don Bentsen are the ones who rate pictures as the three pioneers of the Discussion Club which formerly met weekly, during the division period, under the sponsorship of Miss Thorning. During the spring semester Mr. Pall, the new sponsor, has been in the process of organ- izing the new Discussion Club. ln line with Mr. Carey's suggestion, Mr. Pall has been thinking about conducting discussion sessions by hav- ing one meeting each Week in all of the history and Civics classes. Some of the topics that the members in the past have regularly brought up because of their community interest are: l'The C.T.A., Education, Communism, The United Na- tions, and the many other subjects that are interesting to all of the students. Not only have the members found this club educational, but every student has found that the discussions are enjoyable and stimulating.
