The L. H. S. Beta Club is composed of eighteen members who are either Juniors or Seniors and who have maintained a general average of 90 or above. The purpose of the club may be explained by an interpretation of the emblem: The “B” is the first character of the Greek word “Bios,” which means “life.” The three stars above the “B” represent the spiritual side of life in the specific traits of altruism, honesty, and courage. The eagle represents good citizenship to which the members have pledged themselves. The black background represents the dignity and seriousness which should attend the search for knowledge. The gold band around the emblem is symbolic of friendship and brotherhood, without which life would lose much of its richness.

This year the boys, under the direction of G. R. Skinner, have co-operated with the school faculty in many ways. Each boy has a complete supervised program of work that he is carrying out on his farm. A Father and Son Banquet is being planned, and it is hoped that most of the boys will be able to attend the rally at Blacksburg next summer. IN APPRECIATION The Seniors of 1947-48 would like to express our apprecia- tion to Mr. G. R. Skinner and his class for the beautiful stage setting of “The Cat and the Canary,” the Senior production. — { 30 }e—
